Chapter 42: The Chain of Messages
Walking quickly to the bar in an unusually remote location, Qiu He pushed the door and walked in.
The whole bar was still the same as usual, deserted, without a single customer.
And Luo Wen, who usually stood at the bar and wiped his cup, also disappeared, making Qiu He a little uneasy.
"Rowan, are you still alive?"
Qiu He took out the gun and summoned a small robot, vigilantly observing the surroundings, if there was any abnormal movement, he would control the robot to blow up the bar door and then exit.
"It's not a good habit for you to curse others to death as soon as you come."
Rowan's signature voice came from the bar.
Qiu He cautiously took two steps closer and saw Luo Wen lying on the table in the bar, but he didn't see it just now because of the bar.
"What, since you're here, you squeak when you hear someone come in, don't you know it's weird and scary?"
Seeing that Luo Wen didn't move, Qiu He was not in a hurry to put away the pistol, and continued to stare at him with a little vigilance to avoid being tricked.
"Squeak."
Rowan raised his head, glanced at Qiu He with a smile, stood up and turned to face the wine rack.
"Drink something, I'll ask for this cup."
"As usual, a glass of ice water will do."
Seeing that there was no problem, Qiu He put away the pistol and sat on the high stool in front of the bar.
As for the little robot, as long as you don't care about it, it will naturally disappear after a while.
Rowan took out a glass, poured in most of the half cup of boiled water, added a few ice cubes, and placed it on the bar in front of Qiu He.
"You really won't take advantage, I'll invite you for this cup."
Rowan picked up the half-missing bottle from the table and poured a full glass into the empty glass on the table.
Although Qiu He doesn't like to drink, he still has a certain understanding of wine, and the wine in Luo Wen's hand is a spirit with a very high degree.
Picking up the glass full of wine, Rowan poured half of it in one gulp, like drinking ordinary plain water.
Qiu He picked up the ice water in front of him, took a small sip, and put it back on the bar.
"It's the first time I've seen you drinking, what's the matter, is there anything nice about it?"
Qiu He has come to this bar quite a few times, and this is the first time he saw Rowan drinking in the store.
"You don't have to drink wine when you're happy, you can drink it when you're sad."
Rowan took another sip, drank the rest of the wine in the glass, picked up the bottle and filled the glass again.
Watching his movements all the time, Qiu He wanted to say something, you can blow directly on the bottle.
"I see you're smiling so happily!"
"You have a happy smile on your face, but you may not be happy in your heart, young man, you don't have enough eyesight to see people, you have to learn."
Rowan stretched out his hand and wanted to pat Qiu He's shoulder, but as soon as he reached halfway, as if he had thought of something, he took it back again, picked up the wine glass that had just been poured on the table, and poured it into his mouth in one gulp.
"Aren't you afraid of getting drunk when you drink like this?"
"I'm famous for drinking a thousand glasses without getting drunk, and this little wine can't pour me."
"Since you're not drunk, what's the point of you drinking here alone."
In Qiu He's view, drinking together is for the atmosphere, and drinking alone is for getting drunk, since they can't get drunk, why drink alone.
Rowan picked up the glass and put it back on the table.
"Is there anything you have to do here? You don't come to talk to me! ”
"That's right, I almost forgot about business while chatting, why didn't you give me the news that pirates had secretly landed on the island."
"Really? Is there such a thing? ”
Rowan spread his hands and made a blank look.
"Don't play dumb on me, I saw with my own eyes that the Navy captured a pirate group, and it's on the way here."
Qiu He slammed his fist on the bar, and the ice water in the cup was shaken out a little.
"When you gave you the money, you said that the information you provided was definitely faster and more comprehensive than that of the Navy, what happened this time."
"What else can I do, my news chain on the navy's side is broken!"
Rowan corked the bottle with a little wine left, put it back in the wine rack, drank the wine in the glass, and began to clean the glass.
"The news after that ......"
Qiu He's brows furrowed tightly, although the information provided here is very expensive, but it is fast and detailed enough, and the accuracy is almost 100%, if it doesn't work here, he really won't find another one for a while.
"It's gone, it's gone, I'm also in pain, and the way to make extra money is gone."
Standing in the bar, Rowan picked up a white cloth and wiped the water stains on the glass.
"As compensation, I'll give you the exclusive news! Rear Admiral will arrive on the island on these two days. ”
"Rear Admiral? Is that Major General Stanley? Isn't he chasing pirates everywhere, what is he doing on Gran Island? Is the Navy purge over this time? ”
Yesterday he also said that it would be best to meet a major general, but today I received the news that a major general is coming, and this flag really cannot be erected indiscriminately.
"It's not Stanley's old man who cleans the West Sea, it's a mad dog, Stanley was arranged to suppress Gran Island from the beginning, but it was delayed on the way."
Luo Wen picked up the water cup in front of Qiu He and poured out the ice water that had barely touched inside.
"In the next period of time, there should be more pirates landing on the island, but you'd better not interfere anymore, if you don't want to become a pirate."
Luo Wen had no intention of pouring another glass of water for Qiu He, but directly washed the cup.
Such an obvious send-off action, of course Qiu He understood it, and he didn't continue to ask anything, and got up to leave.
Walking out of the bar, Qiu He looked at the cloudless sky, and the viscosity of the air reminded him that summer was coming.
"Things are getting more and more troublesome!"
Luo Wen's words, of course Qiu He understood.
His activity on the island during this period of time has caused considerable damage to the reputation of the navy.
It was only because it was profitable and things were under control that the managers of this island did not take action against Qiu He.
But now the situation is different, there are Shangguan coming, no matter what the reason is, the manager must suppress the bad voice and make certain achievements to Shangguan.
If Qiu He still comes out to jump at this time, he will be severely suppressed, and maybe he will be crowned a thief because of something.
"Don't I just want to upgrade and make some money? Why is it so hard? ”
Qiu He shouted directly, fortunately, this place is relatively remote, and there is basically no one around during the day, otherwise he will definitely be regarded as a madman.
Of course, during this time, as long as Qiu He keeps to himself, no longer kills pirates, and makes himself fade out of people's sight, he will naturally not be targeted. But he can't bear it, it's all experience and money.
There are also previous plans, which also need to be changed, but fortunately, the main body of the plan does not need to be changed.
