Dark Star Field [Interstellar]

"You said just now that you want to inquire about news." The man fiddled with a shiny golden lighter, the cigarette was held between his fingers but did not ignite, and his tone was slow and leisurely, "If it is inconvenient to say the specific content here, you can always tell me first What is it about."

"About what aspect?" Xue Yelai repeated the other party's last few words.He had heard of a conversation technique where if he didn't know how to pick up the other person and wanted to continue the conversation, he repeated the last phrase of the other person's previous sentence.

"For example, are you looking for someone? Or something?"

Xue Yelai hesitated.He hasn't thought about it yet, because he didn't expect things to develop so quickly.

According to his idea, at least he had to appear in this place for a few days, contact some different people, and release some different information before he could catch a thread that might be useful.And things that develop too quickly are usually unreliable.

"I want to inquire about someone." Xue Yelai considered it for a while, "I will come again at this time tomorrow, and we will talk about it later." He took out a big bill and pressed it under the cup, "Thank you."

These words were actually addressed to the bartender.Compared with a stranger whom he met for the first time and didn't know the details, Xue Yelai believed that the bartender who deals with all kinds of people here every day has a wider news channel.

Seeing Xue Ye coming to leave, the man's expression changed. "Little brother, you are being rude like this. I haven't finished a cigarette here, how can you leave in a hurry."

Judging from the tone of voice, there seems to be some bad meaning in these words.Xue Yelai stood still, thinking about what the other party would do next.

The man suddenly leaned closer to him, as if he was about to say something, but suddenly grabbed Xue Yelai's wrist with one hand, and gently pulled it into his arms.The strength was not too great, and the other party probably thought that such strength was enough to make such a weak and slender young man lose his footing.The bartender at the bar lowered his head and wiped a glass without raising his eyes.

Unexpectedly, Xue Yelai didn't move at all, and even the grasped wrist was not pulled by the other party.The strength value of a sage is not comparable to that of a warrior, but it is more than enough compared to most ordinary people.Although the opponent is not small, he doesn't know how to use force, which shows that the opponent is not good at fighting.If you really want to do it, Xue Ye is confident that you will not suffer.

"Brother, please speak directly if you have something to say, there is no need to talk about it." Xue Yelai's eyes fell on the other's hand, and then slowly moved to the other's face, calmly.

The man didn't like Xue Yelai's attitude at first, and wanted to give him a chance to take advantage of it, but he didn't expect it to work, and he felt a little embarrassed.

Xue Yelai withdrew his hand and gave the other party a step, "I said, come back tomorrow, and we'll talk tomorrow if we have something to do."

On the other side, Bai Yang raised his eyes and looked over.He left his previous seat, but didn't go far.

Xue Yelai hinted to him: Don't move, I can handle it.

Unless the situation was urgent, Xue Yelai didn't want to let Bai Yang take action easily.The fighting skills of the fighters are too professional, and they are obviously different from the fighting skills honed in street fights. Once they make a move, it is almost equivalent to declaring their identity to others.As long as the situation has not reached the point where things need to be done, it is better not to make extra troubles.

Before the man could react, Xue Yelai turned his head and walked out.From the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the bartender at the bar who stopped wiping glasses, and nodded slightly to the two guards guarding the door.Two doormen stepped out of the way and opened the bar door.

Xue Yelai stepped out in two steps.The fresh air and bright light outside made people feel much more comfortable.Looking back, Bai Yang had already followed, walking at a leisurely pace.Xue Yelai had to admit that if two people pretended to be street fighters, Bai Yang would have more aura than him.

Bai Yang has a kind of stability that doesn't match his age, and it looks like he has been struggling somewhere.To use a more literary line, "He is a man with a story".In contrast, no matter how hard Xue Yelai tried to make himself appear mature, it was difficult to get rid of the immature mentality.

This conclusion made Xue Yelai feel a little frustrated.

"Tomorrow, don't come again." Bai Yang stood in front of Xue Yelai, grabbed his wrist and looked at it, "I don't like people talking to you."

"Didn't someone strike up a conversation with you?" Xue Yelai recalled the previous scene, "I thought he abducted you with just a few words."

Bai Yang looked back at him strangely, as if he had said something unbelievable, "That person just asked me if I could sit in another place. Because that booth is where a friend of his always sits every day, and if he doesn't sit there, he will uncomfortable."

"...Is that so." Speaking of which, after Bai Yang got out of the way, it seemed that other people did sit there very quickly.But at that time, his attention was all on Bai Yang, and he didn't pay attention that much.

"Let's go back." Bai Yang pulled Xue Ye out of the alley, "This kind of place is too risky, just try it once."

"But I haven't asked anything yet."

"You have also seen that the circles of those people do not overlap with yours. No matter how extensive their channels are, they may not have the information you need." Bai Yang paused, "Or, even if there is really something related to you Things, turning around here is no longer what you need. For your world, this is only the periphery after all."

Xue Yelai vaguely understood what Bai Yang meant.People living in different positions have different choices for information content.Even if some news from the upper echelons spread here, most of them have been modified through the communication channels and are out of shape.Xue Yelai has read more books than Bai Yang, but in terms of folk survival wisdom, he may be far inferior to Bai Yang.

"But even if I stand at the core, I still can't touch anything." Seeing that every road was blocked, Xue Yelai was almost discouraged.He seemed to be a chick squeezed out of the nest, eager to find a place of his own again, but found that he had no way to heaven or earth.

This feeling of not belonging is more troubling than anything else.

After a moment of silence, Bai Yang said: "Starting tomorrow, I will come here for you. I have a little more experience in dealing with those people than you do."

"..." Xue Yelai hesitated, not knowing how to answer.

"You do what you can do." Bai Yang didn't look back, his voice was flat, "The rest, I'll help you."
