Gene from the 13th Department of Bright City

Not long after the sun went out, it was 6:51 in the evening.

Gene was holding a bottle of wine in his hand and holding a pot of longevity flowers in his arms. This kind of flower has very large leaves. The leaves look like palms with rounded serrated edges. They are stacked together thickly, with light red as dense as stars. The flowering period of this kind of flower can last up to half a year, and the wine Gene was carrying was brought out from Li Ang's wine cabinet. He had collected the best wine for 20 years.

When Gene was helping Li Ang before, Li Ang said he would give them 10 million in funding for Section 13, but Gene refused and asked for this bottle of wine. Today is a good day, it is the birthday of his old friend Harrison, and Gene plans to bring it. Give him the best gift. Harrison liked to drink when he was young, and he will drink a little now when he is old. Today is Harrison's 120th birthday.

"For a section chief like you, you only bring so many gifts? That's too shabby, Jean."

Ran Zai muttered, chewing a piece of gum in his mouth. Jean took Ran Zai shopping all day long, except that he did not go to the water park as originally planned because it was closed.

The two of them came to the southeast area at this time. At the junction of District 40 and District 39, they crossed over to the five major districts 35 to 39, which are collectively called the Art District.

Jean smiled and shook the wine sealed with material in his hand.

“20-year-old wine.”

When he thought about the fact that when he arrived at Li Ang's house before, Li Ang actually used fake wine to deceive him, but Gene saw it through at a glance. In the end, he reluctantly took out the bottle of wine that he had treasured for 20 years.

Ran Zai looked at it suspiciously.

"You'll find out later, and you'll be in for a treat tonight."

Ran Zai smiled. He didn't like drinking very much because alcohol would numb his nerves. Although it could temporarily relieve his pain, it would be even more painful when he wakes up.

Ran Zai quietly looked at the alleys that shimmered under the lights. The stones were mixed with some special fluorescent powder, so the stones looked like they were shimmering. Many of the shops on the street were unique. , except for helping people deal with dead bodies, he basically never came to this paradise for lovers.

As soon as he stepped into the street, Jean attracted the attention of many women around him. Ran Zai followed behind, looking a little helpless. Jean always had a smile on his lips and remained polite to those who recognized him. Attitude.

"That's why I don't want to go out on the street with you. I'm just a foil in the back. After all, I'm not that shabby in appearance. But it's different behind you."

Gene smiled and walked slowly. This street was full of small shops that looked like picturesque scenery. Many small shops were already crowded with people. In front of some shops, people played tambourines. Guitar players abound.

Many stores have their own music, and there are many freelance musicians here. If anyone wants the music songs they create, they can pay for them.

People in some shops will take the opportunity to sell some musical instruments. The atmosphere of the whole street is very happy. This is also a favorite place for many young people. One-night stands are very common here.

"Sir, would you like to come into the store and give it a try? KING brand beer has 5 degrees higher alcohol content than ordinary beer. It's very strong. A cup only costs 3 yuan. We are doing a special event!"

A sales girl stood in front of Gene, and Gene smiled and shook his head.

"Sorry, miss, I have something to do tonight, next time!"

But after seeing the frustrated saleswoman in front of him, Gene suddenly stopped.

"Two drinks for us, and one for you, the beautiful lady, I'll treat you!"

Ran Zai looked at the beer glass that was longer than his head and swallowed a sip. Gene stared at Ran Zai sideways. The bar in front of him with a somewhat cold lighting color was as deserted as the lighting color, and the girl in front of him seemed Didn't get a single customer tonight.

"It's still early, let's have a drink to warm ourselves up."

Ran Zai was reluctantly pulled into the store by Jean. The sales lady brought three large glasses of beer, but she only drank some. She stood happily in front of Jean and kept thanking him.

Gene held the cup and drank at least 1000 ml of wine in one gulp. Ran Zai swallowed. The wine was a bit spicy and had a pungent taste. It was hard to drink. No wonder it couldn't be sold.

"Sir, thank you very much. A handsome man like you should have a girlfriend!"

Gene just smiled and ordered some snacks, and the little girl in front of him happily jumped over and ran over.

"Don't let me spit it out, drink it all."

As he spoke, Gene picked up the remaining half of the beer ordered for the sales lady and drank it in one gulp. Ran Zai looked at the half glass left, and he also noticed that the girl in front of him looked very embarrassed. , the moment Jean rejected her, he noticed that the girl was almost breaking down and crying. It seemed that she might lose her job if she couldn't attract customers.

At this time, some little girls ran in and asked Jean if he was the section chief of Section 13. Jean smiled and nodded. Many little girls exclaimed. Ran Zai glanced at it casually. , probably students from the nearby university district.

"Sorry ladies, I'm on vacation, but if you don't mind, I can buy you a drink."

In less than a few minutes, the store was filled with women. Many young girls took photos with Jean. Jean did not refuse. Ran Zai, who was leaning in the corner, was still holding a beer with half of it left. You can grit your teeth and drink, otherwise you don't know what Jean will do to you later.

A rhythmic drum beat sounded, and the store became quiet. Gene sat in the middle, took off his suit jacket and tie, and smiled happily, tapping his ten fingers on the drum surface with a very rhythmic feel. With strong tapping, his body was moving intentionally or unintentionally. Many little girls next to him watched with great emotion, immersed in this rhythm.

"You're always the center of attention wherever you go, you bastard."

Ran Zai said unhappily. Looking at the tears in the eyes of the little girl sitting next to him, Ran Zai sighed. Gene has no airs, and he is gentle and gentleman. He is very easy to get along with, but he also exudes a certain smell. The beauty and wildness are enough to make any woman flock to her.

Ran Zai raised his head and was immersed in the rhythm of the tambourine. Many people gathered in front of the store, and Jean was beating the tambourine with abandon.

"What on earth are you here for? Aren't you going to celebrate someone's birthday?"

But it seems quite relaxing, and this kind of life might not be bad at all!

Ran Zai raised his head and drank gurglingly.

"Ladies, you can keep photos and videos as souvenirs, but I hope you don't upload them. After all, it will cause some trouble. I'm sorry!"

Gene smiled, stood up and bowed, and for a moment there were screams everywhere in the store.
