424 Love triangle
Killer?
Illo was so startled that he didn't have time to think about it, and subconsciously kicked a side kick to the wooden chair next to him.
Of the people present, only Allegri had the value of being assassinated, so he was most likely the target of the other party.
Before Allegri could react, he stumbled, leaned outward, and then fell firmly to the floor.
Lao Mai fled for more than ten steps before he realized that if Allegri had an accident in his shop, Dios and Brooke would definitely not be able to spare him. So the little old man gritted his teeth, turned around and rushed back. He whistled loudly to give himself courage, and held up the bright machete, which looked murderous.
Alex looked at them with interest, flicking the scarf on his wrist, and there seemed to be a moonlight between his fingers. The small restaurant was cramped, and she was able to use her martial arts to the fullest, and even if she tied Illo and Maxner together, it would be impossible to pose any threat to them.
Illo understands this, too, but he can't just sit still. He took a symbolic step back and drew the spare scimitar at his waist, but he didn't know whether to rush forward or not. After all, having an archer fight a clever killer in close quarters is tantamount to taking the initiative to deliver to your door.
"Stop...... Stop......" Just as he was in a dilemma, Allegri sat up tremblingly and stopped him repeatedly.
"She's a killer. Illo thought he was stunned and kindly reminded.
"Nonsense," Allegri rubbed his waist and barely stood up on the table, "how many good chances does Miss Alex have since she entered the door, and if she really wanted to kill me, would I still be alive?"
"Idiot. "What a good time for Alex. Snorted softly.
"Forehead ......" The half-elf ranger thought about it carefully, and it was really the truth, so he could only put the knife into the sheath in a sneer. Seeing that Lao Mai was still stunned there, he hurriedly glanced at him and reminded in a low voice, "Lao Mai." Put down the knife. ”
"Miss Jean smiled," Allegri couldn't help blushing a little at the thought of his own appearance, and he pulled over another chair and diverted the subject, "That...... Old Mai, it's almost past lunchtime, you go and fix some food. ”
"Okay. "In a sense, Allegri is his lord. So Lao Mai immediately agreed, turned around and walked to the kitchen.
"Be careful, don't touch any more bottles and cans. Alex tossed aside the silver-plated tray on the table and sneered.
"Lao Mai's cooking skills are still good," Irlo explained with a smile as he sat down at the opposite table as he wiped the sweat from his forehead. "This rib just now is to cover up the smell of sweat medicine. That's why he roasted a piece of raw and burnt pieces, which does not represent his normal level. ”
"I hope so. Alex shrugged, she still admired Illo's merit, that is, no matter how humiliating it was, it would only take a few minutes. He would be able to look as usual as if it hadn't happened.
"Speaking of which, I still have half of the shares in this restaurant," Illo continued, glancing at Allegri's face. "So this meal is free, and it should be regarded as me and Lao Mai asking you for sin. ”
Allegri shook his head helplessly, the meaning of the half-elf's words was obviously to let him open the net.
Several people sat around the wooden table, enjoying delicious food and wine.
Aside from the flashy dish names, Lao Mai's cooking skills have been unanimously recognized by everyone. The firewood in the fireplace was blazing, the restaurant was warm, and a thin layer of mist quickly condensed on the rough glass windows.
After three rounds of drinking, the atmosphere began to warm up.
Alex frequently raised his glass and gulped down Lao Mai's treasured wine, and two blushes soon appeared on his cheeks, making this heroic female killer also exude a rare softness.
After Allegri hinted that he would let him go, Lao Mai also dispelled his worries. While he was drinking with Alex, he loudly showed off the majesty of the Prancing Horse Mountain, and his eyes were full of memories.
Illo was not far behind, bragging about his heroic deeds without changing his face. Listening to this, Allegri couldn't help but wonder if the generous and sad ranger in his words was the familiar half-elf in front of him.
Alcohol is the best buffer, and a few strangers who had to fight not long ago are now like old friends who have known each other for many years.
Staggered, laughter.
When Dalgnan pushed the door in, it was exactly such a scene.
His gaze swept over Illo, who was triumphantly crossed on his hips, over Allegri, who was pinching his nose and drinking the penalty wine, and finally fell on Alex, who was laughing.
Amazed.
After a while, the cold wind poured in from the door woke everyone at the table.
"Ados?" Allegri said, turning back and stretching out his hand, "you haven't had lunch yet, so come, come here." ”
Dargnan glanced at Alex silently, but still approached quickly, and whispered, "Teacher, Senior Brother Brooke sent me to ask you when the new tower will be activated, and he should also prepare in advance." ”
"Is this...... There is no hurry. "Although the Light Godhead has been temporarily sealed, the reaccumulation of flame magic is not a matter of a day or two. The new Violet Tower is in the shape of seven layers, even if it is a great magician, it is not easy to activate it, he pondered for a moment, seeing that Dargnan had the intention of leaving, he hurriedly grabbed him and said, "Hey, I will go and talk to Brooke about this later...... Don't go yet, let's eat together. ”
Dargnon hesitated, then glanced at Alex quietly. When he found Illo sitting beside her, and the two of them were even a little intimate, he nodded in response,
"Okay, teacher. ”
Next to the wooden table, a chair and a pair of cutlery were added.
It stands to reason that the more people there are at the table, the more lively the table will be. But for some reason, Illo always felt that Alex was much more restrained than Ados before he sat down.
"Why, what's uncomfortable?" the half-elf asked thoughtfully. According to his exact words, empathy is one of the virtues of his starry eyes.
"It's okay...... It's okay......" Alex, who was originally a little drunk, was extremely sober at this time. She retreated slightly, trying to distance herself from Illo as much as possible, at least not as intimate as she seemed.
Dargnan was silent, he withdrew his gaze, thrust in a piece of carefully grilled pork ribs, and chewed it vigorously. (To be continued......)
