Chapter 11. tombstone

Alice walked all the way, it was because she was thirsty, she took a sip of the wine glass, and the cold liquid flowed down her throat into her stomach, and the ice line made her shiver comfortably, and exhaled a breath of turbidity.

The bartender poured her a second glass, but this time, the middle-aged man said, "The second drink is charged." ”

Alice pulled out a few coins from the pouch she was carrying, and picked up her glass again, this time, she was not in a hurry to drink it.

"It's good here."

She glanced back, and the bar was empty and deserted, perhaps because it had something to do with the fact that it had just opened, but it was just the two of them now.

Alice retracted her gaze, catching a glimpse of the colorful wine on the wine shelves, so many varieties that she couldn't tell the difference.

"Miss, I heard you're looking for someone?"

The bartender spoke first, and Alice was only a little surprised at first, but when she thought that she had been looking for someone for the past few days, it was not too difficult for the bar to know the news.

She crouched on the side of the bar, pinched the transparent wine glass in her fingers, and nodded, "I am indeed looking for someone, but I haven't found it yet." ”

Miss Filin took a sip of her glass, the liquid was not as cold as before, it was lukewarm and warm, and the taste was excellent, and the aroma of the liquid left between her lips and teeth made her very intoxicated.

"You have a unique bartending technique, you learned it in a mobile city?"

"I went to Letania when I was twenty-one, and bartendering used to be my livelihood."

Alice pulled out a bill: "I'll get you a drink, and besides, order a lunch." ”

"Your will."

The bartender took the money, and he didn't know how he arranged it, and soon, a Victorian country style lunch was delivered to Alice.

At this point, the bartender poured Alice a third glass, and unlike the previous two times, he poured a glass of warm water.

"Do you have any news of the fourth child here?"

Alice poked a chop with her fork and spread the sauce on the surface of the steaming cutlet until it cooled a little before serving.

The bartender sipped his drink, his eyes lowered, the corners of his wrinkled eyes twitched a few times, he took a deep breath, and said, "I don't know anything about the fourth, miss, don't worry, if the fourth you are talking about is the same person as the gentleman I know, I will call him Mr. Four." ”

As soon as the tip of the fork pierced the piece of meat, Alice's movements stopped, blinked, and asked suspiciously, "Mr. Four?" ”

"Yes, Mr. Four, I would like to state one thing in advance, I have not met Mr. Four, because he died before I was born, at least fifty years ago."

"So how do you know......

The bartender's mouth turned up slightly, the glass was placed in front of him, and the memory deepened his eyes, a memory that was very long.

"Mr. Four lived in Oia No. 4 before his death, he had a female companion and a butler, I only know that the female companion's name is Miss Rain, and the housekeeper, called Ackert Henry, by the time I can remember, Mr. Four and Miss Rain have both died, only the old Henry is still alive, and then later, I left Pingpan to make a living in Letania, and when I came back eight years later, the old Henry also died, and the Oia No. 4 disappeared because of the demolition, and there is not much left to remember them."

The bartender paused when he said this, and his expression softened: "If you are looking for the fourth gentleman, I think, there is no chance, and I don't know if the fourth gentleman has any descendants." ”

Alice's eyes were glazed, she was ready for the person to be gone, but she didn't expect it to be half a century ago, so what should I do with my commission?

"Sir, do you hear all these things you know?"

The bartender nodded: "Some of them were told by the old man at the time, and some of them were drunk words that old Henry said when he was drunk, he said that he would wait until the two masters came back, but how can a person be resurrected after death, I also heard later, he didn't wait until he died, how could he wait, alas." ”

……

……

"I don't know where it is, but I have a gut feeling that maybe it's not far away."

Zhou Jinru was driving the black rose, and behind him was the rain of the rain, and they were driving under the shade of a tree, located on the hill near Pingpan.

The Black Rose is an extremely high-performance locomotive, not only sturdy and infragile, but also maintains an adaptive shield, and driving a locomotive up a hill would have been unimaginable, but now it has become a reality.

Zhou Jinru felt that she was crazy to agree to Su Yu's request, she first wandered around the city, and then proposed the idea of going up the mountain.

As a nearby attraction in Hirapan, the mountain has some public facilities and a stone brick paved road, but the road is not very long, and it is not paved halfway up the mountain.

Zhou Jinru retracted his gaze, and his eyes were full of lush trees and unnamed bushes, and occasionally some small animals could be seen, but they were all driven away by his emotional perception.

"Ah Guang, thank you for helping me, if it were me alone, it would be difficult to walk such a long mountain road, you must think I am a crazy person, right?"

"Then I'm the other one, and the two of us just got together."

Zhou Jinru smiled, Su Yu's state looked strange, unlike what he had guessed before, she was not trapped by the dream.

Su Yu's voice was hazy, like a whisper in his sleep: "Ah Guang, I seem to remember some words, a location, you drive a little longer, and you will almost reach your destination." ”

The tires of the black rose ran over a few broken branches, through the dense woods, and rushed out of a path, and gradually, the vision in front of me suddenly opened up, and the abundant water vapor rushed to the face, and the roaring water fell from the cliff in front of it, forming a small but very imposing waterfall.

This is not the point, because in a clearing in front of the waterfall, there are three tombstones, two tombstones next to each other, and the other tombstone is more than ten meters away, and a middle-aged man with gray hair is vigilantly staring at the uninvited guests who come here.

"Who are you?!"

"Take it easy, we're not bad people."

Zhou Jinru parked the car and walked to the middle-aged man with Suyu.

Su Yu said softly: "Sir, do you know where this is? ”

The middle-aged man looked at him vigilantly, took two steps back, and said in a deep voice: "What are you asking these for?!" ”

In the wilderness, deep in the dense forest, two young men and women suddenly appeared, and everyone should be vigilant.

"I only vaguely remember this place, but ......" Su Yu's gaze swept over the three tombstones, "I don't remember these tombstones, may I ask, who do they belong to?" ”

……

……

"Miss, there's no way you're going to find their graves in the city cemetery, because they're all buried on a nearby hill."
