Night Hacker

   Chapter 2 Fishpond Izakaya on Shouhui Street

   The night sky was drizzling lightly. The neon signs and old-fashioned lanterns on Shouhui Street dyed the drifting rain a dark red. The crowded passersby were either holding umbrellas or letting the rain fall. The rain is messy, and the signboards such as "Elephant Bar", "HellGames", "Star Plastic Surgery" and "Gokurakurabu" are messy, and the buildings submerged in the darkness in the distance are also messy.

   One of the signboards radiates brilliant blue and purple light, "Li Cai Club".

On the advertising screen under the    signboard, the faces of handsome young men are constantly changing.

  V-necks, shiny jewelry, leopard-print fur coats, some handsome guys dressed in this way are feminine, some are masculine.

   There are also women who are dressed in coquettish women's clothes, and even their facial features seem to have undergone plastic surgery, and they have a snake-like face.

  Li Cai, a famous cowboy club.

  Gu He was standing at the door of the club watching, everyone was stupid.

   "Come on, come with me."

  Ayane Kumiko led the way in front, and when people entering and leaving the club saw her, they would respectfully call "Mom" before walking by.

   "Miss Caiyin, can you expand on your plans for me?"

  Gu He walked and watched all kinds of women's cowboys and all kinds of coquettish killer hairstyles flashing on the advertising screen. He was worried, how would he be positioned...

   "The Cowherd should be handsome, strong, eloquent, knowledgeable, empathetic, likable, and able to sell drinks. You have to have all these things, but well."

   Ayane Kumiko looked back at him, again revealing that mysterious and inexplicable look.

   "That's just a requirement for an ordinary Cowherd, and you are the man who wants to be the Night King! That must be a special Cowherd.

   "I can only tell you for the time being, that kind of cowherd is different from ordinary cowherds and ordinary people. He has extraordinary special talents and abilities and specializes in receiving special guests."

   An extraordinary special cowherd?

  Gu He was a little confused by what she said. Brother Zhuang said before that Miss Caiyin wanted special talents.

   Don’t be like this, the Cowherd is special enough, how else can it be special…

   "But because of this rarity, ordinary people can't be successful. I think you have potential, Xiaohe, but you may not be able to be."

Ayane Kumiko wasn't sure, "I have to look again, so I'm going to take you to meet someone who can identify whether you have that kind of extraordinary talent. If you can't, you can only be an ordinary cowherd, and that's okay. Not bad."

   The night rain and the falling of neon lights made her smile psychedelic and intoxicating.

   "Oh." Gu He agreed with a vague understanding.

   Compared to the game gang in this street returned by Miss Caiyin, it should be better here.

   And if you think about it, you will find that the Cowherd is not a handsome male psychiatrist who is very good at selling alcohol, performing arts, and selling himself...

   No matter how special it is, how special can it be.

   But he was still a little uneasy, "Miss Caiyin, I want to ask, why do you have a director's viewfinder hanging on your body?"

"This?" Ayane Kumiko raised the viewfinder, pulled out its telescopic zoom lever, stretched and stretched, and said cheerfully: "Fashionable decoration is also a symbol, the Cowherd can see the hearts of others, and also It can grow like this."

   "..." Gu He calmed down, because he didn't see through the way...

   "Come, this way." She swayed her graceful figure and continued walking.

   He thought he was going into the club, but he followed it around the narrow alley next to it, came to the back of the club building, and walked into a small shop door with a sign "Open later".

  The old curtains on the door of the store, and the neon signs next to the door that are malfunctioning and flashing all read "Fishpond Izakaya".

  Izakaya has a small living room, with a bar on one side, some small dining tables on the other, and a wooden sofa in the corner.

  The fiery red curtains and lanterns swayed slowly around, reflecting the colorful paintings on the walls.

   There is a corridor over there. At the end of the aisle is a closed metal door. Behind the door is the Li Cai Club. From here, you can vaguely hear the lively voices, singing and dancing, and the laughter of women.

   "Old Fan! I may have found the seedlings we were looking for." Kumiko Ayane called out as soon as she entered the door.

  Gu He saw that besides them, there was only one person in the store, mixing wine in the open kitchen behind the bar.

   You can see clearly through the cowboy door on the side of the bar, it is a middle-aged man.

  Cun head with sparse hair, a chubby body like a wine barrel, a big face and a thick neck, a pair of flip-flops, a dark blue chef's uniform and apron, the chef's uniform is printed with a line of text: wide heart and fat body

   "Fan Debao." Ayane Kumiko gave a solemn introduction, "The manager of the fish pond, the partner of the Li Cai club."

   "Lao Fan, what do you think of Xiao He?" She asked immediately after the introduction.

   Fan Debao was expressionless, like a large plastic mannequin, and looked at Gu He, "Just this wild dog?"

   "Well, I have a sense, he should have extraordinary talent; and he is calm, observant, and can talk, he can eat cowboy rice."

  Although Ayon Kumiko is very optimistic, Fan Debao is still not happy, "The talent is not obvious, at most ordinary Cowherd."

"Lao Fan..." She lowered her voice, "I've been looking for so long, I can't keep looking blindly anymore. To find the seedlings, we still have to observe, cultivate, and run in. Things are urgent over there, and we don't have much time left. Maybe Xiaohe is just that. The puzzle piece."

   "But you are not only blind, but also very dangerous to screw a wild dog like this."

   "It's not just casual, there are not many talented people in wild dogs who have no influence, and they won't come casually if they want."

   She folded her hands and bowed to Lao Fan, as if begging God to worship Buddha, "I really feel like it can be done, could you please test it?"

   "I'll give him a chance." Vanderbilt took out an empty glass. "The money spent on this material will be credited to your account."

   "Okay! When did I make a loss-making business? Even if he doesn't have that talent, there is a way to get the money back." Kumiko Ayane looked forward to it, "Let's test it tonight!"

  Gu He watched the surroundings while listening to the two of them.

   The more I listen, the more I am a little afraid of what the special cowherd they are talking about, there are two cows? Still no cows?

At this time, Ayane Kumiko turned around and patted his shoulder, "Xiaohe, you can stay in the fish pond for the time being, I will help you clear your debts from the game gang, and then I will find a way to get you a legal one. identity.

   "But this year, the climate is a little tight, and legal status can't be rushed, but if you are here, no one will come to arrest you.

   "You don't have to worry about this, just follow Lao Fan and work hard! Well, I'll go to the club first."

   After saying that, Kumiko Ayon, who was in high spirits, walked through the small passage, opened the metal door, and some splendid and feasting scenes came through the door and reflected in front of Gu He's eyes.

   Soon the door closed again, blocking the hustle and bustle of the club on the other side.

  In the fish pond izakaya, there are only two men who are tall and thin and one short and fat.

  Fan Debao didn't say anything, just walked to a large wine cabinet in the kitchen with a blank face, took out a bottle of old cork wine, poured a glass of wine into the glass, came back and handed it to Gu He, saying:

   "Drink this glass of wine, drink it all in one breath, don't waste a drop."

   "Uh, this is?"

  Gu He saw that the wine glass was full of viscous liquid, with bubbles churning in it, sometimes red and sometimes black. I don't know how much mixture was added, and there was a strong and weird smell.

   This thing doesn't look like something you can drink...

   "Follow me to learn, first learn not to be verbose. This is a thing to test whether you have extraordinary talent."

  Vanderbilt's face suddenly turned pale, "Even if you don't have it, you can replenish your body. Drinking it will make you better to increase muscle and hair, and change from a dog to a cow."

  No, Gu He hesitantly glanced at Fan Debao's sparsely haired round head... Additional hair?

   "What kind of talent is it actually?" He held the glass in both hands, his throat moved, but he still couldn't keep his mouth shut.

   "Do you want me to drink you?" Fan Debao said solemnly.

  Gu He has nothing to do, although Fan Debao is wearing what he wears with a heart and a fat body, but this old guy is obviously violent, and he will be beaten if he speaks more.

   Well, he held his breath, raised his head and gulped the glass of wine into his stomach.

   His throat was hot, and his whole body quickly felt like it was being burned, and he couldn't help scratching his ears.

   Something is wrong, something is wrong…

   How did he feel that Vanderbilt's fat face like a plastic mold seemed a little weird.

   There is an old wooden box TV on the side of the bar, and there are audio equipment such as karaoke under the TV box for customers to sing.

  Vanderbilt took the remote control and turned on the TV, broadcasting this year's "Streamer Supermodel Contest".

   "Boy, show me TV, don't miss it."

   "This wine...seems to be a problem..."

  Gu He was already dizzy, those bikini supermodels showed perfect body curves, which made him even more uncomfortable...

   "First, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, overdrive."

  Vanderbilt said fiercely, "This is the seventh speed of neural activity."

   "Wine and beauties are all to activate your nerves, test the nerve speed that is synthesized by your physical talent and spiritual talent, and where the limit can go, where is your extraordinary talent level.

   "Ordinary people, at most 2nd gear; only if they can go to 3rd gear, they have passed the threshold; very few people can reach the overdrive gear.

   "Only those who reach the fourth-speed gear have stronger nerve speed than ordinary extraordinary talents, and are qualified to become doll professionals. Male dolls are also called extraordinary cowherds."

   Fan Debao said while watching the hot Gu He.

   "Unleash your potential and see where you can go."

   "The talent test you mentioned, is it serious..." Gu He was stunned, what kind of **** is this?

"Beauty is just a natural way to activate and speed up your nerves, primitive, but effective and safe. If you think this is out of style, I have some other tapes here, but they are weird, dangerous, indescribable, and the consequences are unpredictable. "

  Gu He was already a little dizzy, as if he was about to stop drinking, but Lao Fan's mysteries made him even more confused.

   This is even more incredible, what if it was a videotape of a brawny wrestling...

   "Don't, just this, just this, I like to be safe..."
