Chapter 3: Wild Dreams

The morning light poured in from the narrow alleyway, illuminating the tavern's dilapidated wooden signs. The door of the tavern was open, and a sign engraved with "Tavern for City People" hung on the door, and the font was beautiful. The room was filled with the glow of gas lamps.

Moya stood behind the bar and counted the accounts in the ledger again, frowning at the fact that she couldn't make ends meet. The boss's friends are all over the world, and there are often people who take credit, and sometimes they are free of orders casually, and they can't change to a better store, and there are few people in the city who know this corner bar, after all, the boss ...... Thinking of this, Moya sighed softly, she closed the ledger, and beckoned Coral who was scrubbing the table to go out and clean the street in front of the store.

At this moment, a man "rushed" in from the mouth of the alley, riding on a two-wheeled wooden frame, constantly touching the ground with his left and right feet to maintain balance.

Suddenly, the man's feet were empty, and he was about to fall in front of the store. Coral was stunned for a moment, and reached up to help. The man stepped on the ground out of nowhere, and came to a steady stop in front of the coral.

"Hey, that's interesting. Mo Xiao turned over and got out of the car, used the stand to prop it aside, and turned his head to look at the coral, "The thing in Los Angeles is so interesting, I haven't seen this thing anywhere else." When I woke up in the morning and saw someone riding this thing on the road, I found one and almost didn't kill me. ”

"This thing is only found in the slums of Los Angeles, and it was invented by the people here. Coral glanced at the wooden frame and replied.

"Huh, the master is in the people. And what's this thing called?"

"Human-powered kinetic energy conversion into emission-free and balanced transportation. ”

"Hiss......"

"We also call it a bicycle. Coral scratched her head and smiled.

"Bicycle ...... Tsk, yes, it's fun. Mo Xiao walked to the door and walked into the tavern, "Anyway, I'm here to find a person named Jue, is he not there?"

"You're looking for the boss, the boss is in the back ......"

"The boss went out to buy, I don't know when I'll be back, why don't you come back later." Mo Ya on the side suddenly took Sango's words and said coldly. Coral turned her head and saw Moya's "kind" gaze, and couldn't help but shudder.

"Yes, yes, the owner is not there, let's help look at the store. ”

Mo Xiao looked at the "exchange" between the two and chuckled. He sat down at the bar, took a cocktail and played with it in his hand, "Get out, then I'll wait for him here." ”

"I'm sorry, we're closing. Moya took down the sign at the door and walked into the store, "Sango, and closed the door when she was done. ”

"Why are you going to drive people away, aren't you doing business in harmony and making money? Mo Xiao said with a wry smile, he put the cup aside and turned around, "After talking for so long, I don't know who you two are." ”

"My name is Sango, her name is Moya, and we are buddies in the tavern, and we usually help to check the business of the store during the day. Coral replied.

"You open the door during the day, what are you in a hurry about?" Mo Xiao smiled at Mo Ya.

The hairs on Sango's back stood on end again, and he felt Moya's "kind" gaze again.

"Moya and Coral aren't real names, right?,It's like Jue... Mo Xiao took out a cigar from his pocket and cut the cigar head with the scissors on the side, "He still remembers these...... It's really his style. ”

"The boss said that when you come to work in this store, you can't say your real name to outsiders, and if you want to say it, you can say what you want to call it. ”

"He's doing it for your good...... Tsk, but I don't understand, what is so good about such a small broken tavern that attracts you to follow it for no reason......"

"That's none of your business. Mo Ya suddenly snatched the conversation and said coldly. Mo Xiao was bored, smiled and said no more. He lit his cigar and took a puff, and the store was quiet again.

The cigar burned slowly, and Mo Xiao stared at Mo Ya while swallowing the clouds and spitting out the fog, and counted the accounts five more times idlely. Just when Mo Ya couldn't bear to say anything anymore, Mo Xiao spoke.

"By the way, have your patrols caught a guy called Crooked Dream... Oh, you should call it Wild Dreams. Have you ever heard of catching him?"

"Brother Yemeng runs a grocery store in Los Angeles, and he often comes here to drink, and he knows the boss very well. But why did the patrol arrest him?" asked Coral who was mopping the floor curiously.

"Do you often come to drink? Ah Jue really dares to let him in, not afraid that one day he will be secretly emptied...... Why did you say you arrested him? Just ...... him."

"I haven't seen you for a few years, so you don't think I'll hack me when I think of meeting someone, right?"

At the door of the tavern, there was a young man in a formal suit. He wore a crisp tuxedo, a cane in his hand, and gold-rimmed monocles reflected the morning light.

"Some people are really casual babbling. Mo Xiao snuffed out the cigarette, turned his head to the door and said, "Why haven't you been killed by those lost owners?"

"You haven't been killed, why am I embarrassed to go first?" Wild Dream walked over to the bar, pulled out a chair, and greeted Sango, "Brandy." ”

"Give me a copy too. Mo Xiao waved his left hand and patted Ye Meng's shoulder.

"You poor ghost, you're going to rub me when you drink. Nomu put a few silver coins on the table and looked back at the mechanical hand on his shoulder. For a moment, his pupils contracted slightly, and his expression froze. The next moment, he smiled and said, "Yes, this is really rich, the original arms have been replaced? ”

"yes, this isn't like the Xibei goods you got out of the warehouse that year, it's genuine. Mo Xiao took the wine handed by Coral and asked, "Anyway, you're still doing those unclean things with three hands?" ”

"Fart, my name is a thief. ”

"Sneak around and do unsightly things and give yourself a gold sticker, and I will obey you. Mo Xiao drank the wine in the glass in one gulp and let out a long breath. "Okay, okay, I won't have anything to do with you. Ah Jue, there is something to do with him. Where is he at this time, I really don't believe he went out to buy anything. ”

After a while, Mo Xiao saw that Ye Meng didn't answer, and raised his head to glance at him. At this time, Ye Meng's face was a complicated expression.
