Section 227 Truth or Dare (4)

Finally Hola Deguna rendezvous, and Hocho retrieved from her the storage bag he had kept for the time being, which contained the funds he had prepared for the trip, as well as a checkbook that could be signed at any time, and of course it needed to have his arcane sigil to be effective.

There are also a few things he has for himself and Rand, such as guns, including a fancy sniper rifle and a rare source gun.

The latter is forbidden, ordinary muskets can be purchased in Asturias, as long as the seller is qualified to sell firearms, and the buyer has a license to buy guns, but the restricted level of the source gun is still above the artillery, because this thing can be ten times more powerful than artillery, but it is more convenient to carry around than artillery, and the accompanying magic effects can sometimes cause panic and loss more than simple damage, such as the plague.

However, this restriction of course means that for the general public, for the Jimenez and Bernadotte families, there is still a way to get it, although it is not a high-end product.

Hocho was satisfied with the things, among which the source gun of course belonged to him temporarily, and gave the sniper rifle to Rand, his reason was that Rand was already a magician, and he needed it more than Rand.

After packing up your things, it's time to take turns bathing.

After Rand finished bathing, he found that he had an extra book on his bed, the same Final Fantasy that he had seen in Mrs. Leigh's room.

"That little girl came when you were bathing just now. Hocho was referring to Cindy, who was in his nightgown and hugged Holard Goode, "The old lady asked her to send it, saying you'd like it." ”

After saying that, Huo Qiu yawned, hugged the delicate body in his arms and turned back. Locked himself and Holard Good in the master bedroom. The oversized double bed inside naturally belonged to him and the girl in his arms.

Rand didn't bother with him either. I happily opened the book and re-turned to the page I had read before.

In the afternoon, Rand lay down on his makeshift bed, turned on the magic lamp at the head of the bed, and read a book for the afternoon. It should be mentioned that the current magic lamp can be opened and closed by switching the lighting effect, and the principle is to do it through intermittent magic. The earliest magic lanterns were kept on as soon as they were opened, and they could only be done by forcibly cutting off the magic lines, but it would be very troublesome to turn them back on. Either wait for someone from the Magic Lantern Company to pick it up, or you are a magician yourself.

Next door, Huo Qiu and his temporary girlfriend made a strange noise in another room, and they had sex all afternoon.

When it was almost time for dinner, Rand reluctantly put down the book, although he still wanted to read, but when it was time for dinner, he remembered that he had promised to invite Mrs. Leigh to dinner.

He and Huo Qiu washed up again, then went over and knocked on the door of Mrs. Li's room, invited again, and then politely went to the restaurant to order food first.

The Queen Tiffany deserves to be known as the one that crushes other cruise ships. The second-class cabin can be the super luxury class of other people's first-class cabins, and the facilities on board. In addition to an indoor swimming pool, gymnasium, café, library, dedicated meditation room, billiards room, which are the first of its kind on cruise ships, the first of its kind on cruise ships, even the common room and restaurant are also amazingly luxurious.

The dining room and common room are decorated with fine wood panelling made from the finest logs from the Emerald Continent, with high-end furnishings or other high-end décor, and the lounge and non-dinner dining room serve pastries from the Sol Café, the most famous café in Sant'Quentin, where authentic Arabic pastry chefs are in charge and made for you by their own hands, not in stock.

The main meal time of the restaurant can accommodate first-class passengers with up to 11 dishes, including oysters and roasted pigeon, as well as desserts such as pudding, while the second-class restaurant can serve five to seven courses including bean soup, baked cod and sandwich meatloaf with ice-cream for dessert, and third-class with gruel, beef and potatoes.

Rand sat down on the seat in the dining room, shook the napkin in front of him, laid it out, and waited quietly for the guests to arrive.

He was not the only guest in the restaurant, the nearby table was also occupied by guests, but it was not noisy, most of the first-class passengers were still cultivated, they just recruited waiters in black vests, ordered food in a low voice, and some didn't even say anything, just used their fingers to determine the menu.

After a while, Mrs. Leigh and her personal doctor and bodyguards arrived, and Rand hurriedly got up to greet her.

After everyone was seated, Rand signaled that the food could be served, and the waiter nodded and left.

As the dishes came up, Rand and Mrs. Leigh had a warm and cordial conversation, first thanking her for sending the Final Fantasy novel, and continuing to talk to her about Agravin's novel.

The meal passed in a conversation between the serving and the empty time, and both sides tacitly agreed not to inquire about each other's origins, but only to talk about the novels and films that they were both interested in, first as Agravin's novels, and finally extended to the shadow animation of the last sixty years.

Rand had to admire the insight of this lady Leigh, at least he knew the history of the Shadow Animation more clearly than ordinary people, and he was able to say some points of view that were different.

When the last dessert is also swept away, the mealtime is finally over.

Rand got up politely and said: "I am very glad to meet you on this ship, and it is a great honor to talk with you, I really can't wait to continue, but I promised a little girl to take her to the first class cabin to see, adults can't lie to children, so I'm going to fulfill this promise in a while." ”

"Little girl?" said Mrs. Leigh. in surprise.

"Yes, I was in third class when I got on board. Rand laughed: "A little girl I met there, and her mother was with her, I booked a place in the ship's café, and I will take her there to play in a while, and if Madame is not tired, we can go together." ”

"Madame, you should rest. Torrey reminded.

Mrs. Li smiled and said to Torrey, "I'm very happy today, can't you let me stay a little longer?"

Without waiting for her personal doctor to answer, she turned to Rand and said, "I'll go to the café too." ”――

Rand asked Horcho to lead Mrs. Liz and the others to the café seat first, and he went to the third class to fulfill his promise and bring the lovely little girl Belisanda to the first class, and the little girl's mother was shocked and of course followed along.

After leading the little girl to visit the first-class rooms, common rooms, gyms, libraries and other places, he took Bailey, who did not feel tired at all, to the ship's café.

The first-class café is not large, after all, the area here is limited, and it is impossible to compare it with the shops on the ground, but when you enter it, you have a warm feeling, and the aroma of coffee is also full of your nose.

Rand put the little girl down, and then took her hand and walked to the seat, this is a large coffee table, Hocho and Mrs. Li, they are already seated, but due to the absence of Rand, the atmosphere is not as warm as in the restaurant, although Hocho is also a eloquent person, but that Mrs. Liz is not only able to talk and impress, even Rand is largely courted by his status as a reader of Agravin.

After they all sat down, Rand was a little embarrassed, he didn't know how to entertain the little girl, but it was not good to just continue to talk about literature and magic animation with Mrs. Li, and leave people aside, but Mrs. Li was invited to come, and it was also a big mistake to snub her.

Rand couldn't help but tap his fingers on the table, "Well, is there any good way to get everyone to participate together?"

"Sir, if you don't mind, you can play the game of Truth or Dare. "The aroma of coffee came, and it turned out that the waiter had brought the coffee.

"Oh, what truth or dare?" said Landage, and Madame Li, with a puzzled look, apparently the first time she had heard of it.

The waiter put the coffee pot and cups away and poured them for everyone one by one, while introducing the rules and gameplay of Truth or Dare.

This type of game was used for parties, and originally originated from sea adventures, especially during the period of the ambergris trade, when trade between the two continents was mainly carried out by sea, and a large number of seafarers and adventurers had to stay at sea for long periods of time for money and profit, and this type of game was created out of boredom.

Truth or Dare is to set up a punishment before proceeding, any form of punishment can be, and then you can set the number of questions in advance (between people who are not very familiar with each other), or you can not set questions in advance (generally limited to friends who know each other very well, because some questions may be very private or inconvenient to answer publicly), and then decide in a random way who is the object of the adventure, sailors at sea, The seafarers are the easiest way, when the bottle of wine is drunk and turned sideways, and turns to whoever the mouth of the bottle points to, and whoever takes turns to return to the question, and all answers, and no one can point out that his answer is wrong, then he passes the test, but accepts the punishment, and if the question is not answered, or if the answer is proved to be false, then he can only be punished.

In those days, the general punishment was to buy wine or drink all the rest of it, or to be more miserable, to be lifted up and thrown into a bucket.

Later, this kind of party game also became popular on land, and it was used by young people to confess, so some people said that this kind of game was a love game.

But in fact, it depends on how the problem is set up, for example, when a few young people are together, setting the game question to "Have you ever had a lover?", "I love you, will you accept it?", etc., of course, it becomes an opportunity to confess, but people like Rand and they were a little strangers before, and it is harmless to use this game to liven up the atmosphere.

As for the form of randomly deciding on the object of adventure, of course, it will not be in such a primitive and rude way as turning a wine bottle, the waiter takes out a deck of playing cards from his vest pocket, and only needs to predetermine which card to draw will become the object of adventure.
