Chapter 1876 Little things in between

Chapter 1876 Interlude·Little things

【Um? Has she ever been so red before...]

A moment later, Cole, who was a little uneasy because Xiao Ai had been walking into the kitchen for too long, frowned slightly. He stared at the latter's slender figure who was walking in a hurry, and subconsciously pursed his mouth into a thin line.

He remembered that the person in the kitchen was Cro Illumina, a young man with very good abilities and probably the background of a high-ranking figure in the Wanderer Hotel. In fact, if Jun Wu hadn't appeared halfway, the youngest He should be the head of the Liberty City branch.

So according to the background Cole learned, the young man named Crow should theoretically have a lot of opinions about Jun Wu. However, the facts are contrary to the so-called theory. This young man named Crow Illumi Not only did the dark elf young man who accepted the job not do any hostile behavior towards Jun Wu, he even came to apply for the job inexplicably. He seemed to have no objection to this guy who inexplicably stole his position.

Of course, after actually becoming an employee here, it can be said that there is not a day when Crowe does not have opinions about Jun Wu, but that is simply because he was given a workload that was completely inconsistent with the salary, and one person was treated as a joint member. .

I have to say, based on Jun Wu's usage of Crow, it's strange that the latter has no objection. After all, in Mo Tan's words - even dogs can't bear to let go.

All in all, for God knows what reasons, Cro Illumina has been working under Jun Wu, and he has no intention of leaving until now, and his work content has gradually begun to change to jobs with higher fashion value. The direction is tilted, to put it simply, it includes but is not limited to serving tea and water, doing laundry and folding quilts, starting stoves to cook, mixing wine and grilling skewers, to...handling some intelligence-related business on the basis of the above.

The effect was immediate, at least compared to when Cole first met Crowe, the latter had lost at least fifteen pounds at this moment, and his melon-seed face had almost turned into an awl face.

Of course, even if he has an awl face, Crowe is still a handsome guy with a rosy face. Whether it is the beautiful silver hair unique to dark elves or the fair complexion that will not darken no matter how much he is tanned, it is a plus. In addition, his natural With his attractive facial features and a sickly temperament that has gradually developed due to lack of rest, he looks like a noble gothic vampire at first glance, which is not unpopular.

In fact, many of the female customers at the Wuye District branch come here for the two handsome guys, Jun Wu and Crow. Among them, in addition to the elegant and intellectual Jun Wu faction and the sickly and beautiful Crow faction, there are also Some girls are fans of the two of them, and whenever they have time, they will get together to discuss whether the two big men will go to the wine cellar or warehouse to do some dirty things after closing the store.

After learning about this, Crowe was naturally red-eyed and wanted to clear his name, but Boss Jun acquiesced to this argument after suppressing him. For no other reason than this, this has a very positive impact on driving customer flow.

As for the public opinion, Jun Wu took such things very lightly, so he was not affected in the slightest. Although Crowe was greatly affected, there was no way to shake Jun Wu's thoughts, so he did not want to resign. So I could only protest by spending most of my time in the kitchen.

All in all, Kro Illumina is a handsome guy.

Although he is far from being so handsome as to be miserable, if compared to players like Jean Croque and Cole who are relatively handsome and are currently in the "teenager" and "youth" stages, at least in terms of appearance, they can beat them instantly without any suspense. Drop the latter.

Not only that, as far as Cole knows, Crowe should not have a lover at the moment...

【……】

Gently tugging on his collar, Cole sighed silently and focused his attention on the person he should protect again, feeling slightly worse for some reason.

"Why have you been gone so long?"

Jun Wu took the silver scissors handed over by Xiao Ai, and while trimming the tail of the dragon snake fruit, he asked casually: "Did you chat with Crowe?"

Xiao Ai nodded: "Well, Mr. Crowe was using scissors just now, so I waited for a while and had a few words by the way."

"I didn't expect him to be quite good at making girls happy."

Jun Wu smacked his lips and turned to glance at Xiao Ai: "Your expression is very good now, more beautiful than before."

Xiao Ai, whose pretty face was covered with a blush, shook her head in embarrassment and waved her hands: "You are joking, I just... didn't expect Mr. Crowe to be so observant."

Jun Wu laughed dumbly until the fruit in front of him was cut into fine pink dices before he said leisurely: "Cro is the best intelligence agent in this building, no one, no matter you or me, Or maybe there is a bodyguard who, although I don’t know where he is, is definitely less than twenty meters away from us, so it is completely normal for him to be less insightful than him.”

"oh?"

Xiao Ai, who was already quite curious about Crowe, immediately blinked and said curiously: "I have always wanted to know the reason why Mr. Crowe stayed here."

"Of course it's because the benefits here are good."

Jun Wu answered without hesitation.

The next second, the girl who was always very decent in every move suddenly coughed violently and almost knocked over the shaker in front of Jun Wu.

"Hey, be respectful."

Jun Wu picked up the shaker and shook it slowly, and said in a very serious tone: "We are not the kind of black-hearted enterprise that can only be seen in stories."

[That's natural, this place can no longer be described by just a few words: a black-hearted enterprise...]

After complaining like this in his mind, Xiao Ai nodded sincerely and said: "That's what you said."

"Ha ha……"

Jun Wu, who could see what the girl was thinking at a glance, just shook his head, and then continued to concentrate on mixing the wine. It was not until five minutes later that he poured the finished product into a crystal clear small wine bottle and pushed it in front of Xiao Ai: "Take it. On."

The girl took the wine bottle with both hands very respectfully and bowed slightly to Jun Wu: "Thank you, Mr. Jun Wu."

"When you are free in the past two days, remember to go to [No. 17 Nichang Street, Erling District] and find a half-dragon cripple named Jieko Baston."

Jun Wu casually reported an address, and then pointed to the small wine bottle in Xiao Ai's hand: "Give him this bottle of wine, and he will listen to you."

Xiao Ai nodded slightly and asked, "What should I say?"

"Anything you say is fine."

Jun Wu returned to his recliner slowly, picked up the towel next to him and wiped his hands while saying: "He is the tavern owner who was razed to the ground yesterday. This is the only information I can tell you."

Xiao Ai's reaction was quick. After hearing this, he immediately frowned and his expression became hesitant.

"Excellent hesitation."

Jun Wu praised Xiao Ai with a smile, then slowly closed his eyes and said in a leisurely tone: "Anyway, I won't tell Tan Mo about this before he comes back. You can make your own decisions." Judgment, but I can guarantee that whatever your final decision is, that guy will understand it."

The girl nodded slightly and bowed to Boss Jun, who was closing his eyes to rest his mind: "Then I'll take my leave first, Mr. Jun Wu."

"Well, go ahead."

"Well……"

"Anything else?"

"No, it's okay. I'm just curious why you didn't go to the game."

"You mean [criminal debate]?"

"Yes, as far as I know it is a very grand national event, and almost all outsiders like you and sir will go to participate or observe."

"Well, as for your husband, the game should have started by now. As for me... I don't have the ability or the interest, so when I went to watch the game with my friends, I chose to stay. Check out the store here, and it’s fun to listen to the noise of these people.”

"I envy your attitude towards life."

"Go back. If you continue to be polite, there will be no end."

"Okay, then goodbye, Mr. Junwu."

"Goodbye, little girl."

"To be honest, every time I come here I am always confused by what my husband said about Boss Junwu."

After walking out of the hotel, Xiao Ai muttered something in a low voice before turning into the second alley, shaking his head and saying: "He is absolutely a very good person, I can see that."

The empty alley echoed with the light footsteps of the girl.

"Cole?"

Xiao Ai frowned slightly, and there was a faint flash of pale flame on his fingertips: "Are you there?"

"I am here."

The next second, a familiar voice sounded less than twenty centimeters behind her, instantly dispelling the panic in the girl's eyes.

Cole Schren, wearing a black woolen hat and a turtleneck black sweater, linen trousers and boots, walked slowly out of the darkness.

"The hat is nice."

The girl casually dispersed the flames between her fingers, turned around and smiled playfully at her friend: "I can see that you are a very tasteful person."

"Thanks."

Cole casually pulled the collar of the sweater up to his nose and replied dully: "People who give gifts have better taste."

"Thank you~"

Xiao Ai also thanked him, and then continued to walk forward with brisk steps: "Before returning to the manor, I plan to go to the Erlin District first. Please see me off."

Cole nodded slightly and replied concisely: "Okay."

"Well……"

Xiao Ai suddenly stopped, turned his head to look at Cole, and said in a very determined tone: "There is something wrong with you!"

"Um?"

The latter was slightly startled and repeated in a very doubtful tone: "Is there something wrong with me?"

"Well! Something's wrong with you!"

Xiao Ai nodded vigorously, then suddenly reached out and grabbed Cole's sleeves, staring at the latter's face with unconcealed worried eyes: "Tell me, what happened!"

Cole hesitated for a moment, then finally shook his head and said: "No... no, maybe a little bit, but it's not something important."

"tell me."

The girl grasped Cole's sleeves tightly, then suddenly her eyes widened, and she whispered: "Did something happen to Uncle Bayes? That's why you are so uneasy?!"

Cole was confused at the time and said in astonishment: "Ah? Where is this going?"

"Isn't it? Huh, just fine if it's not, just fine if nothing happens."

Xiao Ai breathed a sigh of relief, and then smiled at the confused Cole: "I know you received a letter from Mr. Bayes a few days ago. I saw you looking a little weird just now. I thought it was that What happened?"

Cole burst out laughing and patted Xiao Ai's head gently: "You, can't you think of something better? Uncle Bayes is doing well over there, um... even if there are changes, it's not impossible."

"Eh?"

Xiao Ai was stunned for a moment and quickly chased: "So what happened?"

Realizing that the other party would never give up before getting the answer, Cole sighed and said helplessly: "Why are you so curious about my uncle?"

"We are all from Pato City. In terms of relatives, there is only one Uncle Bayes among us."

Xiao Ai, who had lost his parents in an accident half a year before he met Tan Mo and had no other relatives, coughed slightly and continued to ask with a red face: "So what is the accident?"

"Let's talk as we walk. If you have to go to Erlin District first, your schedule today will be a bit too tight."

Cole twitched his lips, and then took the lead in taking steps. As he walked, he said to the girl trotting next to him: "Actually, it's nothing. It's just that he and the one who took good care of us and ran the 'Linju' Ledo... seems to be getting married soon."

"Get...married!!!"

Xiao Ai was shocked and looked at Cole with dumbfounded eyes. His mouth subconsciously opened into a cute O shape. After a while, he exclaimed: "You mean Uncle Bayes and Ms. Ledo are going to get married." Yes! Just recently!?"

Cole, who was startled by Xiao Ai's fierce reaction, nodded and said with a smile: "To be precise, they plan to get married in three months. Of course... the date is not set yet, but Ms. Lei Duo feels that It was quite memorable to get married on the day they first met, but Uncle Bayes said that if I could go back, the time wouldn't be impossible to adjust."

"Three months later? The day we first met?"

Xiao Ai tilted her head and thought for a while, then clapped her hands hard: "Oh, I know, the melody of Lan Zhiyue is seven days away, right?"

Cole was shocked at the time: "How did you know?!"

"They were partners in a mercenary group back then."

Xiao Ai smiled and shook his finger at Cole: "I have already investigated their [Night Owl] mercenary group back then. Although it was not large, it was still a group officially registered with the Mercenary Association. Considering the situation of the two of them, I think it is most likely the recruitment day for the mercenary group in the first or second year, and the unified recruitment day organized by the Eastern Continent Mercenary Association Seven days, considering the size of their regiment, I’m afraid they can recruit new members on the last day.”

"..."

"What's your expression?"

"I think you're a little too powerful."

"Hey, thank you for the compliment. Anyway, don't worry. I will talk to my husband about the vacation. With his character, he will definitely agree to let us go back."

"we?"

"What? You don't want to take me?"

"That's not true. I originally wanted to ask you if you wanted to come with me..."

"That's pretty much it."

"But you are different from me. You are very heavy for sir..."

"I'm overthinking it. There is no difference between us as far as sir is concerned. If you let me go, you will naturally let me go. In fact, if possible, I would like my husband to go back with us."

"This is a good idea~"

"Really? So that's why you looked stupid just now?"

"No, it's not."

"What's that for?"

"nothing."

"I'm curious!"

"No, you're not curious."

"Why are you like this~!"
