A peerless killer possessing a cat girl assassin from another world
Chapter 518: No Wine, Everyone Gets Drunk
Seeing Leowen burst into tears, Bai Ye began to feel a little sympathetic towards this poor worker...
"So, you've been wandering this world for more than two thousand years?"
"... Ugh... Yeah... It's been more than two thousand years, and I've traveled all over the continent... The higher-ups still don't believe me... Why am I the only one so unlucky..."
"You guys...each of you only has one upline?"
Bai Ye has a lot to say about this. When Nightingale was not yet the chief, the organizational structure was like this: the superiors unilaterally contacted the subordinates, and the subordinates spread out to various places. Unless there was a matchmaker from above, the people in each line did not know each other.
"Yes... We need to contact each other regularly every hundred years..."
"Is it possible that something went wrong with your upline?"
"It should be... unlikely..."
"There is another possibility. Your bureau has completely disappeared..."
"That's even more impossible. I've heard of the strength of the General Administration... I heard that there are people backing them up... How could they disappear so easily?"
"I'm just saying this casually. I don't understand your place anyway... I think you better not hold out too much hope."
"But this is my first mission... I'm still waiting to finish it and go back to get a permanent job... ah..."
"Another one! With bubbles!"
It can only be said that when people's emotions find an outlet, they can get drunk by drinking anything...
While he was in high spirits, Leowen pestered Bai Ye to listen to his story.
Originally, he came to the tavern to kill time. Bai Ye sighed and told some unimportant parts of his story.
......
"Ah... What a boring story... I've heard the same story at least ten times... Uncle, tell me something more exciting... Like the time travelers you killed..."
"That's enough. I've told you everything. Do I still need privacy?"
"Well... okay, if you don't want to tell it, then don't tell it... Mr. Dead Bird... What about you, do you have any good stories to tell poor Lu Yinji?"
"sorry, we do not have that."
Kubo refused outright.
"Oh... I'm going to die without any stories to tell..."
Leowen spread his hands, laid down on the table, and soon fell asleep.
"...It seems like you have met more than once?"
Bai Ye asked.
“It’s not a lot, but it’s impressive.”
"I say, why don't you just hire her as a waitress... There's basically no life expectancy issue here, and she likes to listen to all kinds of people telling stories... I think she's a good fit for you... Besides, there's no news about her going online, and I don't think she'll be able to do that in the future..."
"It's not up to you...Mr. Bai Ye...it depends on whether she is willing or not."
"No need to see if you are willing or not?"
"No need. As long as she is willing to endure this suffering, I have nothing to say."
"Okay, I won't mind my business..."
Although I have managed a lot in the past...
......
"By the way, what happened to that sergeant from last time?"
The noisy girl fell asleep, and Bai Ye continued chatting with Kubo.
"...never came again..."
Kubo said as he glanced at the wine list behind him.
"...You seem to care about him?"
"The sergeant is a war hero and I have great respect for him."
"That's how it should be."
"His home planet was destroyed, and he joined a space mercenary city-state... When we first met, he was seriously injured and both legs were broken... He almost crawled in."
"A kind-hearted customer healed his wounds, and from that day on, he became a regular here, coming here for a drink almost before and after every war."
"The sergeant said he liked the atmosphere here and that it allowed him to temporarily forget the cruelty of war."
"His favorite wine is 'Star Silver Grass'. I've never seen him drunk."
"He always mentioned his hometown and said he missed the smell of gunpowder there."
"Once, he started crying while talking... and cried for a long time... I always thought that a tough guy like him wouldn't cry easily..."
"Do you know the reason? He accidentally lost the last can of soil he brought from his hometown during the battle."
"I can relate to the sergeant because I feel that we are the same kind of people."
"In a foreign land, longing to return home..."
"His story has come to an end, which may be a relief...but I still have to continue walking alone on this road where I can't see the end."
For Kubao, this place is both a home and a prison.
Immortality is a blessing and a curse to him...
The guests who come and go are just passing by to him, fleeting in a flash, but they are also the only spiritual comfort in the endless waiting.
“It’s hard to endure…”
"We can find joy in adversity and still hold on."
"It's no use... Another... Another... Another... Cup... Hehe..."
Leowen at the table grumbled inappropriately.
"Boss! Bring us some snacks! We need something we can't normally get!"
A table of guests in the distance shouted loudly.
"Excuse me, please excuse me..."
"Well...go do your thing..."
......
"Hmm... ah~"
"How long have I slept?"
Leowen woke up and asked Bai Ye who was still sitting next to him.
"I don't know, maybe a glass of wine..."
Bai Ye drank very slowly. He couldn't taste the flavor at all. He was just drinking for the feeling.
"What about dead birds?"
"I'm busy."
"Ah...boring..."
"Let me ask you a question. What are you going to do if you can no longer contact your upline?"
"......I haven't considered it, and I don't dare to consider it......Wouldn't I be unemployed if I did that?"
"The reality is that you may already be out of a job ... You have to be prepared for that."
"No, I will never think in that direction...the higher-ups will definitely contact me..."
Yes, he has believed in the faith for more than 2,000 years, and even performed his duties faithfully... recording what he saw and heard for more than 2,000 years...
I tried my best not to think in that direction, and I also didn't want my faith to collapse.
It can be considered as an effective "self-deception"...
In this regard, Bai Ye decided to put aside his desire to help others and respect her choice.
"By the way, since you have recorded things over the past two thousand years... I can also consult you about something..."
"Wow, you want to get something for nothing without even telling me a story? But... we are destined to be together, so it's okay to tell you one... just one."
One by one......
"Then I want to know the whole process of the disappearance of the dragon clan two thousand years ago."
"Damn it, he's really taking advantage... He picked the expensive one..."
Leowen curled his lips and continued:
"Dragon clan... let me think about it. When I first arrived in this world, I happened to see a real dragon... You don't know how ferocious that big guy was... I tried my best to barely escape from its mouth... As a way to welcome a visitor from another world, it's too..."
"Speak the key."
"If you want to ask me the reason, I don't know. I can only describe the scene to you... It seems that there is nothing to describe... Because there was no sign or movement at all."
"But my intuition tells me that the place these big guys are going to must be a mysterious place that even I have not set foot on yet..."
