286. Night Encounter
Tonight was a lively night at the Kassel Academy.
Originally, Caesar's birthday party was supposed to be three or five friends with whom the relationship was better, a party, everyone gave their gifts and blessings, and then began a night of carnival.
However, Gu Bei didn't go, he only asked Chu Zihang and Fingal to help him bring a gift over.
Akadulla sat on the sofa opposite Gu Bei, the whole person sunk into the soft sofa, and he was still holding a bottle of whiskey treasured by the night watchman in his hand.
However, the old cowboy comparison did not stop him, he isolated Angers differently, the wine in the Angers wine cabinet is all collected, put out for people to see, and the wine he has here is for drinking, and everyone drinks the same.
And although the two people in front of him are young, the night watchman also regards the two as existences of the same status in terms of skills, and there will be no fight.
The trio are now not in the laboratory, but in the bell tower.
Hard work is of course a good thing, but a combination of work and rest is also a must.
This is perhaps the highest point of the entire academy, and when you stand in front of the window and look down, you can see the entire academy brightly lit.
Should I say it or not, the scenery is very good.
"Don't look at Caesar, who usually looks free and uninhibited, but when he celebrates his birthday, he is extraordinarily low-key."
Akadulla seemed to have drunk too much and had a big tongue.
But they're just starting to drink it now, what kind of wine can make a high-level bloodline close to the S-rank get drunk so quickly?
It's probably because he hasn't been able to overcome the problems in the research project for a long time, which makes this genius among geniuses feel a little more frustrated.
This is the right time to drink away your sorrows.
It is not the wine that is intoxicating, but the sorrow that flows into the throat.
"I still remember when Caesar first entered the academy last year, at that time, he integrated the student union and led the student union to defeat the Lionheart Club, which has been outstanding for many years, in one fell swoop, which can be regarded as the limelight, but last year's birthday party was not a big deal."
Akadulla shook the bottle, and it seemed that the bourbon was really strong enough.
"Maybe it's because this day reminds him of Gulveig."
When Gu Bei heard an unfamiliar name, he turned his head to look at Akadulla, and found that this person was already swaying and drowsy, obviously unable to ask anything, so he looked at the night watchman on the other side.
The night watchman turned on the old television, which showed the Westerns he had watched dozens of times, and had no intention of giving him an answer.
Well, in fact, there is no need to know who this name is.
Gu Bei angrily opened another bottle of whiskey.
"Don't spoil it if you don't drink it." The night watchman said in a loud voice.
Gu Bei paused for a moment, and then performed a dragon to the night watchman on the spot.
Night's Watchman: "...... You might as well be ruined. ”
Gu Bei ignored him and got up from the sofa.
"Gone?"
"Hold back your panic and go out for a walk."
Taking the elevator from the top of the building all the way down to the ground is like falling from the sky to the earth.
Birthday......
Speaking of his birthday, Gu Bei suddenly remembered that it was the end of November.
It's not far from Eri's birthday.
I haven't seen a little girl in a long time, so let's take some time to go to Tokyo.
There should be time...... bar.
In other words, how did the group of people around him get together to celebrate their birthdays in the second half of the year, there was a senior brother in June, Lu Mingfei in July, Nuo Nuo and Xia Mi in October, Caesar in November and Eri Yi in December.
It seems that the wine De Mai is also in December...... What time is it?
Throughout the second half of the year, he was ready to go numb just to prepare a birthday gift.
Thinking about it, Gu Bei was suddenly stunned.
He doesn't seem to have had a few birthdays himself.
The body was abandoned in an orphanage since childhood, with an unknown date of birth, and the director of the orphanage always used the day he was found as his birthday.
However, the conditions of the orphanage are not good, the old dean alone supports the entire orphanage, and there are dozens of children in the orphanage, not so much an orphanage, but an old man who raised a group of street children with his own savings.
At most, the children are full, and birthday cakes and other things are just luxuries.
Although Gu Bei was later adopted by Lu Tianming and Su Xiaoyan, the Lu Group funded the renovation of the orphanage, and funded the orphans in the orphanage and provided for those children to go to school, but at that time Gu Bei had already left the orphanage.
He never had his birthday at the orphanage, and he still doesn't know his real birthday.
Even the birthday of the previous life has been forgotten.
After all, he was not a person who cared about this kind of thing very much in his previous life, his life was mediocre, he had no sense of ceremony, he hadn't had a birthday since a certain year, and then he even forgot what his birthday was.
Now that he has carefully calculated, his real birthday is probably only the childhood of his previous life, and the first two years that he has just crossed over.
In the two lives, he was almost forty years old, and the number of birthdays he celebrated did not add up to ten times.
It's really pitiful.
But it's okay, it's a lot better than some people in poor areas who can't have a birthday in their lives, and Gu Bei can be regarded as content.
Gu Bei walked out of the bell tower and met the flow of light on the street.
Caesar's birthday party was surprisingly large.
Although it is said that because he also has to take care of Nono's birthday, Caesar replaced the original party dinner party with a ballroom dance party that the entire student council can participate in, but it should not be as big as it is now.
It's like encompassing the entire academy.
"It's a family arrangement."
I don't know when, a man walked beside Gu Bei.
Gu Bei had already noticed this man.
After all, in such a lively atmosphere, the man was wearing a crisp suit, the square scarf in his chest pocket, and the shiny leather shoes, which not only reflected the light around him, but also reflected the knife hidden in the dark shadow behind his waist.
This kind of dress is too out of place with the surrounding environment.
However, Gu Bei doesn't seem to have the qualifications to say this about others.
Because the weather is gradually getting colder, although Gu Bei has no cold and heat, he will not be maverick in dress.
He took off his iconic black trench coat and white coat, changed into a cotton sweatshirt and coat, and followed Chu Zihang's example and wrapped a Burberry scarf.
There is a saying, finches eat crickets.
Colonel Chu usually doesn't show anything, but he really has nothing to say about this clothing.
The only flaw is probably a large wings of freedom printed on the back of the coat......
That's right, this was also sent to him by Eri.
The little girl was quite caring, knowing that the weather was cold, and she specially prepared thick clothes for Gu Bei.
Recently, the little girl has been quite fond of "Into the Giant", and it is said that she has been customizing Mikasa and Allen's couple costumes......
Gu Bei was still struggling with how to persuade her to give up this idea recently, after all, even if the rest was forgotten, this symbol of Mikasa and Allen was indeed a bit ......
Gu Bei didn't want to be cut off by Eriyi.
"It's a shame that you can endure it until now."
Gu Bei seemed to have anticipated the existence of the man for a long time, and the pace under his feet did not change, and the man was also half a step behind him, like a dutiful waiter.
If the waiter didn't have a knife on him, it would be even more like.
Or rather...... Is he a sword-bearing guard in front of the Emperor?
Gu Bei thought with bad taste.
The man probably wouldn't know what Gu Bei was thinking in his mind, or even if he knew, he wouldn't show anything.
He is the weapon of the family, and emotions only dull his blade to him.
"It's been a long time since the young master has had such a lively birthday, and the acting head of the family feels that this opportunity is better, maybe it can make the young master come out of the death of the master mother."
It turned out to be from the Gattuso family.
Gu Bei understood, and then gave a few titles to the man's mouth and thought of the corresponding characters.
The young lord refers to Caesar, and the acting head of the family should be the one mentioned by Ange before, the current ruler of the Gattuso family: Frost Gattuso.
As for the true head of the Gattuso family: Pompeii Gattuso......
Sorry, the Gattuso family themselves don't know the whereabouts of this playboy...... It may still be sown in the efforts of Tiannan and Haibei...... Right?
As for the dead mother......
"Gulveig?"
The man's footsteps paused, and then he followed Gu Bei again: "Yes, it seems that Principal Ange has told you a lot of things. ”
The matter about Gulveg was not a secret at all in the upper echelons of the secret party, but Gu Bei was able to name it, and it was unlikely that anyone other than Ange would tell him.
It can't be Caesar who exposes his scars.
"It's not Ange," Gu Bei didn't know what the name Gulwig represented, and even if he knew, he didn't care, he didn't hesitate to sell the old cowboy on the bell tower, "It's Flamel." ”
Night watchman.
The man thought of this old powerhouse who was ignored by everyone of himself, and it seemed that although the other party had not shown up for a long time, he still had some movements of some secret parties in his hands.
It's like Angers II.
The man had no doubt that if something went wrong with Angers, then the contemporary Flamel would probably immediately take over the banner from Angers and become the leader of the secret party.
You really can't underestimate any old powerhouse, whether it's Angers or Flamel, or Frost.
As soon as the man thought of this, he suddenly heard Gu Bei speak: "You have been lurking in my class for so long, have you learned anything?" ”
“!”
The man's whole body froze, he looked up at Gu Bei, and the long bangs on his forehead spread out to both sides, revealing a pair of heterochromatic child holes.
Parcy Gattuso, senior secretary of the Gattuso family.
As for how tall it is...... It's as advanced as Norma is to Kassel.
During this time, he had indeed lurked in Gu Bei's class to learn foreign arts, to be precise, he had been in the classroom since the first public class.
How strong is his latent ability?
During the first public class, Ange and the Night's Watch were present, as well as his immediate boss, Caesar, who was the young master of the Gattuso family, as well as the master of profile, Nono, and the strong radar Chu Zihang.
But none of these people were aware of his presence.
He always thought that it was because he was lurking well enough and hidden enough, so until now Gu Bei didn't find himself and didn't kick himself out of the class, but now, ......
"You don't think I didn't find you, do you?"
Gu Bei grinned: "Please, your tricks to hide your aura may still be useful to others, but I'm not a half-blood, I'm a practitioner, is it important whether you have a bloodline aura or not?" ”
Only then did Patsy realize where he had been exposed.
He also finished Gu Bei's class without taking a class, and he had a deep understanding of Yuan Qi's magic, not to mention anything else, since practicing Qi, his bloodline, which was difficult to control without taking medicine, actually began to gradually calm down, and even lost control once for a long time.
And his strength has also increased, and he doesn't have to rely on bloodline loss to increase combat effectiveness.
In fact, this also has something to do with his own good talent for practicing Qi.
For example, in the past, Su Xiaoqiao belonged to the European Emperor players among the Inhumans, and the A-level half-breeds and D-level half-bloods were all hung on Lian Qi, so Patsy belonged to the kind of European Emperor who was open.
His own bloodline is not low, but his talent for practicing Qi is good, although he can't reach Su Xiaoqiao's kind of rare encounter in ten thousand years, but it is also much stronger than many innate aliens.
Therefore, it will quickly achieve results in practicing Qi.
Hearing Gu Bei's words, Patsy was speechless for a while, and then silently wrote down in his heart: Not only are the old powerhouses worthy of attention, but the new generation cannot be ignored.
For a while, the two fell silent and walked in the crowd.
Obviously, the dress of the two and the atmosphere of the crowd did not blend together at all, but no one noticed the two.
After a while, the two came to a fork in the road.
Parcy stood in front of an intersection and made a gesture to guide the way: "Professor Gu, our acting head of the family wants to see you." ”
This was the main purpose of his appearance in front of Gu Bei tonight.
Gu Bei's two eyes stared at him directly, and he saw that Patsy was a little hairy, so he smiled slightly: "Forget it when you see him, remember to tell him when you go back, if you really want to see me, just tie the dog at the gate of your house, don't bite anyone." ”
Paxi's heart sank, and he looked at Gu Bei, but he saw a pair of obscure eyes.
"Also, you need to be clear about one thing."
Gu Bei said: "The two of us can have a good chat here tonight, firstly, because Frost is quite smart and did not drive the dog to the academy, and secondly, because of you." ”
Parsi couldn't understand Gu Bei's eyes, but Gu Beihong's Zhongdalu-like voice echoed in his heart: "The Gattuso family is indeed a behemoth, but it's not worthy of me to give face, I have always liked talented people, you are a smart person, you know how to choose." ”
"If you think about it, come to me anywhere."
The voice echoed in Patsy's mind, like a spell that she couldn't break free of, and Patcy struggled to break free, and when she looked up again, she found that the intersection in front of her was full of traffic.
Between people coming and going, Gu Bei has disappeared.
"Everywhere ......"
Reciting this place silently on both sides, Patsy's eyes flickered twice, and he turned and walked into the fork in the road, merging into the flow of people.
