Chapter 224: The Past
At two o'clock in the afternoon, the monsters attacking Mondstadt gradually receded, and the crisis came to an end for the time being.
Standing on the city wall, Jiang Bai stretched.
Although he didn't do anything, watching a monster siege was also a wave of knowledge, and he had something to brag about when he went back.
"Now that the monster siege is over, do you want to have a drink with me? I'm in for a treat! Kaeya leaned against the wall and spoke slowly.
"Shouldn't you count the casualties and clean up the aftermath now?"
"With Albedo's guards, these monsters basically haven't stepped across the bridge, so how can there be any casualties? As for the aftermath work, there is Amber~" Kaeya is too lazy to take it for granted.
"Okay, but is there a tavern open at this time?"
"Rest assured, the taverns in Mondstadt are open at all times. Maybe we'll still be able to hear the guests talk about the monster siege in the tavern. ”
Jiang Bai followed Kaeya all the way to the Angel's Gift.
Although there is more than one tavern in Mondstadt, it is clear that the angel's gift is more favored by Kaeya.
Diluc had returned to the Angel's Gift Tavern, wiping his glass behind the bar.
Kaeya pushed open the door and sat down on a stool in front of the bar, "Two drinks of afternoon death." ”
Diluc glanced at him and brought out two glasses of wine.
He handed Jiang Bai a glass of afternoon death, "Mondstadt's special sparkling white wine, mixed with three points of dandelion wine, I hope you are used to drinking it." ”
Jiang Bai took the wine glass and tasted it lightly, this wine has a sweet fragrance, it tastes better than expected, but it is stronger.
"Not bad."
"It's my favorite wine, of course."
Kaeya leaned against the bar with a wine glass, and looked at Jiang Bai with some playfulness, "How much do you drink, the death in the afternoon is very strong, don't drink and look foreign, otherwise I will laugh for a year......"
"I don't know how much alcohol I drink, I haven't drunk in Liyue."
Although Zhongli would occasionally pour himself a drink in the courtyard, Jiang Bai would pour tea for him every time he went to Zhongli, and he would not take the initiative to find wine to drink, so he really didn't know how much he drank.
"Do you have no memories of before you wake up?" Diluc asked aloud.
"Well, I don't have any impressions."
Kaeya looked at Jiang Bai in surprise, then at Diluc, and sighed twice, "Wake up?" What do you mean? Are you two hiding something from me? ”
Diluc was really a little surprised this time, "Oh? You don't know? ”
With Kaeya's strategy, once he becomes suspicious of someone, it is not difficult to find out the origin of the other party, unless he does not have suspicion of Jiang Bai.
"What should I know?"
Of course, Kaeya didn't have any suspicions about Jiang Bai, after all, who would have unnecessary suspicions about a person who met under normal circumstances and gave you funeral leaflets as soon as they met, with a clear identity and origin?
It's too tiring to be suspicious of everyone you meet.
Diluc looked at Jiang Bai and asked for his opinion.
"It's no secret." Jiang Bai chuckled, the violence of the death in the afternoon made him feel a little hot, but he didn't feel drunk.
"I was the one who woke up from the coffin, and I was almost buried by our master......"
Jiang Bai gave a brief introduction to the reason why he appeared in the Hall of the Dead, and Kaeya was amazed when he listened.
"I can't imagine that my best friend you still have such an experience!"
He couldn't see that Jiang Bai had lost his memory at all. Although Jiang Bai didn't know much about Mondstadt, it was normal for people from other countries to not know much about Mondstadt.
Moreover, Jiang Bai didn't have the four-pointed star eyes unique to the Kanria people, so he didn't have any doubts about Jiang Bai at all.
After all, it's too deceptive to stuff people with funeral flyers......
"Is there anything in you that could connect to your past?" Kaeya wondered what her friend's past was like when she had crawled out of her coffin.
"Yes." Jiang Bai dipped his fingers in some wine and drew a triangular picture of his shoulder on the bar, "Have you ever seen this picture?" ”
Both Kaeya and Diluc shook their heads, the diagram wasn't complicated, and the two triangles were too simple compared to Teyvat's various patterns.
"I'll keep an eye on this symbol for you, and let you know as soon as there's any news." Diluc said.
"Thank you very much."
Kaeya stabbed Jiang Bai with her elbow, "Friend, what do you think your past looks like?" Do you want to get your memories back? ”
Jiang Bai shrugged, "To be honest, it doesn't matter if you find it or not, my life is pretty good now, and it doesn't matter to me whether I have memories of the past or not." ”
Kaeya sighed, "Your mentality is very good, there is really no need to cling to the past, people, look forward." ”
Diluc glanced at him, "Heh, I wish someone could have that mentality too." ”
"I don't know who has been immersed in the past......" Kaeya shot back unceremoniously.
Diluc's eyes narrowed slightly, obviously touching the moldy head, and between the two of them, there seemed to be lightning and thunder.
Seeing that the atmosphere between the two of them was tense, Jiang Bai hurriedly played a round, "Didn't you invite me to drink, why did the atmosphere make it so embarrassing......
I don't know what kind of contradiction there is between these two people, he is really getting more and more curious.
But apparently no matter who he asks on either side, he will not get an answer.
Kaeya drank the wine from her glass, "For your sake, my friend, I won't bother with this guy." ”
Diluc snorted, too lazy to bother with him.
Jiang Bai changed the topic and tried to liven up the atmosphere.
"Speaking of which, I'm curious, why do you wear an eye patch? And your eyes don't seem to be the same as normal people's. ”
Kaeya crossed her legs, "I said I wanted to be a pirate when I was a kid, so I learned to be a pirate wearing a blindfold, do you believe it?" ”
"I don't believe it." Jiang Bai shook his head neatly.
You said that he could still believe that he had a second illness in middle school when he was a teenager and wore an eye patch, but Kaeya is such a big person, and he wants to go directly to the pirate wine, where do you need an eye patch to express his yearning for pirates?
"Well, to tell you the truth, this blindfold was left by my grandfather, who used to be a pirate, and I guess it's a thought that I've always carried it. As for my eyes, they are inherited by blood, and my father and grandfather both have such eyes......"
Diluc looked at him, but didn't speak.
He'd been wearing an eyepatch since Kaeya appeared at his house, and he'd never seen what Kaeya looked like under his blindfolded right eye.
But as for any thoughts, he did not believe.
It is estimated that there is something under the blindfold that cannot be seen, so he will cover it consistently for more than ten years.
