Section 4 Hot and cold

Half an hour later, Tie Slag drove the locomotive and carried Qin Ke'er to Center Street. △ Top point novel, from the time they entered the city to the present, they have walked about nine kilometers. Iron Slag couldn't help but sigh that a functional area of this Silver City was equivalent to the size of Iron Mountain Town.

Qin Ke'er commanded the iron slag forward and came to a café. The café was small, with four tables in the hallway in front of the door, and five or six more in it when viewed through the stained-glass windows.

The sign of the café reads: Corner Coffee House

It's three o'clock in the afternoon, and the bright sunlight shines through the red striped sunshade cloth, which is finely sprinkled in the corridor, and there are small flower baskets on the table, as well as a glass oil lamp, all of which look leisurely and comfortable.

After parking the car, Qin Ke'er sat down at the table with iron slag. After a while, the waiter in the plaid suit brought the water and the menu.

Iron Slag opened the menu, looked at the price on it, and suddenly widened his eyes.

Black Coffee 6 Copper, Cappuccino 1 Silver 5 Copper, Blue Mountain Coffee 1 Silver 8 Copper, Fresh Fruit Plate 2 Silver, French Fries 3 Copper, Garlic Toast 5 Copper, Sealand Veal Steak 6 Silver, Oak Roasted Northland Black Goat Leg 1 Gold and 2 Silver, Golden Bay Whole King Crab 1 Gold and 8 Silver, Red Marlin 3 Gold and 3 Silver, 12-Year-Old Huaxia Manor Red Wine 3 Silver and 2 Bronze, Fifteen-Year-Old Siren Red Wine 21 Gold, Seventy-five Years ......

"Hello sir, what do you need?" The waiter asked, hunching over. The iron slag menu was thrown away, and a cup of black coffee was ordered.

Qin Ke'er originally wanted to order something expensive, angry at this dragging hillbilly. But when she thought that the other party was a garbage picker, her heart softened, so she only ordered garlic toast. It's the turn of the iron slag to be a little embarrassed, after all, people have been busy for a long time, and they haven't eaten yet. So, he took it upon himself to order a veal steak and a fresh fruit plate for her, plus a cappuccino.

"You! Do you have a lot of money? After the waiter left, Qin Ke'er was unhappy, and asked with a puffed cheek.

Iron Slag couldn't help but touch his forehead, he really couldn't understand this woman.

"You come from the Northern Wilderness, you must be self-aware, don't have nothing to do, I'm not rare!" Qin Ke'er said with righteous words.

Iron Slag looked away and rolled his eyes, but pretended not to hear.

"You have to study for a year, everything you do here costs money, food costs money, accommodation costs money, how much money do you bring? Can you stand such a toss? The more Qin Ke'er spoke, the more energetic she became, and she seemed to be unable to stop, and the iron slag could only continue to pretend that she hadn't heard it.

"Do you want to soak me? Don't think too much, that's impossible, I'm not going to take a good impression of you for a meal. Qin Ke'er said.

Iron Slag turned his head, clasped his hands into fists and said to her: "Thank you for reminding me, I have enough money to spend, you don't have to worry, and I didn't think about ......"

"How much money did you bring?" Qin Ke'er interrupted him and asked.

"50 gold." Iron Slag replied. In his opinion, 50 gold is considered a small savings in Tieshan Town, and it is not a problem to eat, drink and have fun for a year and a half.

"50 gold! Oh my God......" "What's wrong?" "You only have 50 gold on you, and you dare to spend money indiscriminately!" "Isn't it enough?"

"I'm unlucky, I'll pay for this meal myself, just make that cup of coffee." Qin Ke'er said disdainfully.

Iron Slag lifted his glasses and asked her about the college's cost of living. Qin Ke'er asked the waiter to bring pen and paper, but counted it carefully.

In terms of accommodation, the accommodation fee for one semester is 12 gold, and the electricity and water bill is about 1 gold, for a total of 26 gold a year. In terms of food, eat in the canteen, breakfast 2 copper, lunch 5 copper, dinner 6 copper, a total of 1 silver and 3 bronze a day, 3 gold and 9 silver a month, and 48 gold a year.

There are 76 golds in total, and the average daily cost is 2 silvers.

"That doesn't seem like it's enough." Iron Slag said.

"You just know whoa." Qin Ke'er said with his hands on his chest. Tie Slag asked again what is the way to make money here, Qin Keer shook his head and said very little, the income of the restaurant from brushing dishes is 2 copper per hour, and brushing for a whole day is just enough for the day's food and accommodation expenses.

"I don't have to brush the dishes, I have a lot of strength and can carry things." Iron Slag said.

"Engineering mechs are used here to transport things, and they don't need to work hard." Qin Ke'er said disdainfully.

Iron Slag asked if there was anything else he could do.

"Yes, there is a ......" Qin Ke'er deliberately lengthened her voice, looking at the iron slag with an expectant expression, her face suddenly froze, and she asked, "But why should I sue you?" ”

"This ......" "Sue you, what's the benefit?"

Iron Slag touched her forehead again and asked her what she wanted. Qin Ke'er showed a playful smile, saying that when she was happy, she would leak her mouth. Iron Slag asked her how she would be happy.

"I'm so happy to see that you're upset." Before she could speak, Qin Ke'er pursed her lips and laughed. For a while, the eye waves were slightly rippling, and the charm was overflowing.

"Friend, as for me?" Iron Slag asked seriously.

"I don't know......" Looking at the serious appearance of the iron slag, Qin Ke'er smiled even more happily.

"Well, please have something good." With that, Iron Slag got up and walked to the locomotive, fumbled in the canvas bag for a while, and took out a small bottle with a red liquid. Back at the table, Iron Slag asked the waiter to bring a small cup, then poured a cup and pushed it over.

Qin Ke'er looked at the viscous bright red liquid in the cup hesitantly, thinking of the identity of the iron slag picking up rags, she pursed her lips and said that she would not drink this unknown thing.

"Good things come, take a sip and you'll know." Iron Slag said. He didn't dare to say that it was Ice Crystal Fruit Wine, because only the Snow Night Ice Field and the Endless Forest Sea in the world had Ice Crystal Berries, and saying it was likely to expose his brilliant identity.

"Don't drink it." "It's really good, I don't lie to you." "Don't drink it." "Okay......" At this point, Iron Slag had no choice but to give up, and was about to reach out to get the small cup back, but Qin Ke'er suddenly stopped his hand, and asked him with some fear and expectation, "Is it really delicious?" ”

"It's delicious." Iron Slag replied sincerely.

"You swear." Qin Ke'er said in a delicate tone.

Iron slag suddenly felt bad, and he had to swear an oath over this little thing, and this oath was too child's play. Immediately frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Love to drink or not, don't drink and pull down." ”

"It's stingy!" Looking at the more real appearance of the iron slag, Qin Ke'er picked up the small cup with a disdainful look and took a sip gently. In an instant, the liquid in the mouth turned into a cloud of ice crystals, like ice slag and fruit pulp. An indescribable feeling welled up in her heart, and she almost froze. The taste is cold and refreshing, like sweet but not greasy ice cream, cold but not cold water. Gradually, the coldness turned into infinite warmth, as if people were in the constant temperature of the water, only to feel that the body was about to lose weight, soaked in incomparable comfort.

The taste is as thick as lava and as mild as warm water......

After a while, it wasn't until the waiter brought the staple food and coffee that Qin Ke'er came back to her senses. However, the first words she said made Iron Slag eager to snatch the wine back.

"Is this the Greatest Hallucinogen?" "If you don't want to drink, don't drink it!" "But it really feels like it."

Iron Slag couldn't help but frown and asked her if she had tried. The drug dependence of the hallucinogens is extremely strong, and the women in the alleys of Iron Mountain Town often use it, and they can't live with almost nothing.

Qin Keer hurriedly shook her head and said that she hadn't tried it, but she had heard the teacher's description when she was in pharmacology class. Iron slag said it was better not to try, that thing was hard to quit. He was once injured and used a phantom for pain relief in the absence of medication, and it didn't take long for him to become addicted, and it took him a long time to quit.

"I'm a good girl, I never touch any of these things." Qin Ke'er said a little unhappily. She thinks this hillbilly is too much, and she actually suspects that she has used the magic potion!

From this point on, the atmosphere became dreary. For the rest of the day, neither of them spoke again. Qin Ke'er finished eating quietly, and when the iron slag settled the bill, they left the café together and went to the academy to report. The two walked silently along Center Street for a while, and came to a gate to the east.

This is the main gate of the Central Silver City Military Academy, which is composed of twelve giant stone pillars, also known as the Gate of the Round Table Samurai. There are two checkpoints in front of the door.

Qin Ke'er reminded that weapons cannot be carried in the school, and they must be stored at the checkpoint and can only be picked up when they go out. Iron Slag frowned, feeling very uncomfortable in his heart. He has been swordsman since he was sensible, and now he is really not used to asking him to unarm.

Iron Slag asked if there was any other way. Qin Ke'er said that among the more than 100,000 people in the entire academy, only three people can carry weapons, so ordinary people don't think about it. Tie Slag asked who could bring it, Qin Keer said impatiently, the president, vice president, and secretary general of the student union.

Iron Slag thought about it and put "Feng Yao" into the sword slot on the side of the red comet and hid it. Qin Ke'er hugged his chest and said that iron slag couldn't do this. Iron slag told her to leave it alone, it had nothing to do with her.

Qin Ke'er was so angry that she stomped her feet and left first. Iron Slag didn't care about her, and slowly pushed the car into the level. A staff member dressed in white with a silver badge on his chest checked Iron Slag's documents, then took a large iron box and asked Iron Slag to put his weapons in a unified management.

Iron slag took out all the weapons and ammunition, and the staff put on white gloves, carefully examined them, and then wrapped them in oiled paper and put them into iron boxes.

During the period, the staff picked up the Merlin revolver with great interest and said: "The customized version of the Smith M500, this is a rare commodity, I heard that it is much more powerful than the Sand Eagle." ”

"It's a pity that there are no bullets." Iron Slag sighed.

It was only then that the staff noticed that there were no blasting shells for the M500 in the ammunition pile. He opened the magazine and looked at it for a while, saying that the academy's firearms center can customize this kind of bullet, and 30 credits should be able to customize about 200 rounds.

Tie Slag asked what the concept of 30 credits was, and the staff replied that 1 credit was equivalent to about 10 gold coins, but there was no market, and no one wanted to sell it. Iron Slag asked why, and the staff said that many of the resources and equipment provided by the college could not be purchased outside. For example, the Holy Light Power Armor for the Templars can be exchanged for huàn with credits.

After the staff finished packing up their things, Tie Slag signed his name, paid the management fee of 1 gold coin, and pushed the locomotive through the checkpoint.

After entering the academy, Qin Ke'er waited outside, and when he saw the iron slag coming out, he began to complain that he was too slow to pass the test. Iron Slag was a little tired of Qin Ke'er's flickering heat and coldness, and said lightly: "I'll solve the rest by myself, you go back first." ”

"You said it yourself." Qin Ke'er strengthened his tone and said.

"Go ahead." Iron Slag waved his hand casually and pushed the locomotive to the other side.
