Light Spirit Epic Chapter 1937: Captured by the lake
Chapter 1937 Captured in Huguang (6)
Meanwhile(?), London, Great Britain.
At night, in front of a small, run-down bar in the old neighborhood.
"Well, it hasn't come yet..." The dark iron knight boy Daniel looked at his watch, and the time displayed on the watch was eight o'clock in the evening.
He had made an appointment to meet a few other knights here, and then go to meet the family of Dore, the dark iron knight who died in the line of duty, and apologize to Dore's family.
He didn't even plan to join the other knights, and went to Dore's family by himself to apologize.
But he thought of what the Dark Iron Knight Tarkas had said before. If he went alone, he would probably only make matters worse and anger Mr. Dore's family.
And, most importantly...he's a little scared now.
I don't know what to do.
The thought that he would be resented by others, and that nothing could resolve the misunderstanding, pierced Daniel's heart.
Sure enough, it's better to wait for the others to come, and then go to Mr. Dore's family after meeting.
However, he waited and waited, but he did not wait, from six o'clock in the evening until eight o'clock in the evening. His patience was almost exhausted.
Tarkas and the others were delayed by official business, right? one more time?
The dark iron knight boy sighed.
Just when he hesitated and didn't know what to do next, a song interrupted his thoughts.
"The night is long and the shadow is empty.
The night is long, and the drunken shadow disturbs the dream.
As shivering, the night wind is cold.
May this evening be comforting and stretch your arms. "
The familiar singing is the same as what I heard at noon today, full of loneliness and sadness, but it is very suitable for this long night.
"
The heart is empty and cold, and the dream is drunk.
Extremely sad, borrowing wine to relieve boredom.
As shivering, the night wind is cold.
May this evening be comforting and stretch your arms. "
There is a little warmth in it, but it inexplicably touched the heart of the black iron knight boy.
"
Why sigh, this body is cold.
May this evening be comforting and stretch your arms.
"
The singing ended temporarily, followed by a cold and vague applause. The singing came from the tavern downstairs in Mr. Dore's house, and the voice was also sung by the girl Daniel met at noon this afternoon.
Then the boy suddenly remembered another appointment today, he should go to cheer for the girl when the pub opens in the evening.
The other companions have come and gone, and Daniel has nothing else to do right now, so why not?
Daniel quietly walked into the bar slowly. A young man of his age would have been easily noticeable walking into a bar, not to mention the fact that he was wearing a knight's armor. But he walked low enough and full enough that the commoners in the tavern drinking and listening to music didn't have time to talk to Daniel, so until he found a place to sit down, everything seemed to be fine.
"So you're finally here." After an unknown amount of time, a young girl walked to Daniel's desk and smiled in the dark environment.
"I'm here." The boy replied shyly: "Your song is very, very nice."
"Thank you." The girl leaned into Daniel's ear and whispered, "I think you should order something to drink. You have been sitting here without ordering anything. The boss is not happy and wants me to ask you to go. "
"Here, give me a glass of juice..." The boy then took out a gold coin and said.
"So much for a whole gold? This is enough juice to make you fat." The girl joked, "But well, I'll be responsible for swallowing the rest of the money, and your juice will be delivered right away. ."
Daniel can't help but smile.
The girl just wanted to get a drink for the boy, but Daniel suddenly thought of something and stopped the girl: "Uh, if you can stay with me for a while------"
"Oh, little pervert." The girl looked at the dark iron knight boy with a funny smile: "Okay. Anyway, I just changed my shift, I can accompany you during the break. For the sake of this gold coin Come on, the boss shouldn't embarrass me. You wait for me there honestly."
Daniel nodded.
After just a few minutes, the girl came over with a drink. Although Daniel ordered a glass of juice, he couldn't understand this inexplicable glass of juice. It looked like some sort of fruit-and-soda mix, with crystal clear, bubbling soda on the bottom, orange-red or even pulped juice on top, and white cream on top.
"I'm more afraid of drinking things that are too sweet..." Daniel whispered while holding a glass of juice.
"This won't be very sweet. This is my confident work. It's guaranteed to be delicious. Try it." The girl sat opposite Daniel and smiled sweetly. Maybe the juice soda wasn't sweet, and she needed to sweeten Daniel.
Meanwhile, another singer's voice was heard on the bar's small stage. Judging from her mature singing skills and voice, the singer should be a middle-aged woman in her thirties.
"It turns out that someone else is singing." Daniel said curiously.
"Isn't that of course. If I have to sing all night, I'll be dumb in a few days," the girl complained.
"But she doesn't sing as well as you." Daniel blushed and whispered, "The singing is very good, but, um, there is no... emotion in the singing."
"Shh, be quiet!" The girl interrupted the boy's words: "Miss Lisa is very vengeful, you let her hear this kind of words, I will have a hard time in the next few weeks!"
"Yes, I'm sorry..." The dark iron knight boy scratched his head embarrassedly.
"So, what exactly are you here for?" The girl leaned back in the chair to relax and began to ask, "You don't seem to be here just for listening to music. I saw you at noon, You look like you're lost."
"I'm not lost..."
"Either lost, or lost." The girl suddenly said something that seemed philosophical.
Daniel couldn't argue with that.
"Huhu, relax, I'm not interrogating you, you can say whatever you want or don't want to, no one is forcing you." The girl looked at the boy with interest: "But this is a bar, just a bar. A place where people can relieve their worries. You are a minor, and I can't help you with alcohol. In this case, why don't you try to tell the troubles in your heart for others to listen to? Maybe it will make you feel more comfortable after talking about it. What?"
Daniel blinked, suddenly feeling a little wet in his eye sockets. Fortunately, the lights at the scene were already very dim, and he was sure that his face that wanted to cry but couldn't cry would not be seen by the other party.
The boy replied in a low voice, "I'm a little troubled."
"Tell me?" The girl continued: "But you have to keep it short. I still have... (she turns to look at the clock on the bar) Well, five minutes to rest. Time. As an outsider, maybe I can give you some advice."
"Okay." Daniel sighed: "I came to this nearby city...actually to apologize to the family of a colleague who died in the line of duty."
"Huh?" The girl looked a little surprised, but she didn't say anything. Instead, she continued to look at the boy with gentle eyes and encouraged him to continue.
"My colleague died recently. It's all because of me. Because of my lack of strength, there is no way to protect them...there is no way to protect everyone. I thought it was all fighting, All the hurt, all the pain, I will bear it all. I thought that as long as they didn't show up, I could do it all by myself. But I failed. I even sacrificed myself. Not good. I can't save others, I can't save myself, and it even drags down my colleagues. I'm such a useless waste."
The other party has been listening attentively without commenting. It wasn't until the end that the singer girl suddenly asked: "So, you think you didn't do well enough and killed your colleague. So, do you think you owe his family?"
"...That's probably what happened." Daniel replied after taking a sip of soda. Even the soda, which was originally sweet, seemed to have a hint of bitterness.
"Your colleague who died because of this, what did he say before he died?" the girl asked again.
"I don't know. At that time I... lost consciousness." Daniel was actually petrified at the time, but he simplified the facts for ease of explanation.
"But listening to the rest of the comrades...he finally seems to be...well, thank me."
"Thank you?"
"I don't know what he thinks. Why did he sacrifice for me, but he still has to thank me." The dark iron knight boy smiled wryly: "Maybe it's just to let me hear after sober, not so much. Be sad. He is such a gentle man."
"I can't agree more with him about his gentleness." The girl whispered, "But I don't think he's thanking you because he doesn't necessarily want to make you feel better."
"Maybe. But I'll never be able to figure this out." Daniel smiled more bitterly.
"Daniel, you're here!" A voice suddenly interrupted the conversation between the dark iron knight boy and the singer girl: "God, I'm looking for you everywhere, but you're picking up girls in the bar! Damn!"
"Mr. Jefferson..." Daniel was a little surprised, "Uh, what about Mr. Tarcas?"
"He can't come. That guy Vincent seems to have received some information, he just refuses to let Tarcas off work, and has been looking for various reasons to keep Tarcas~IndoMTL.com~ Jefferson said helplessly: "It seems that only I can accompany you. I still disobeyed the order and sneaked out. "
"Sorry for causing you trouble." Daniel couldn't help but look guilty.
"Um, my break time is almost over. Let's talk slowly, see you later?" The girl got up from the chair and left in a hurry.
"See you later." Before Daniel could say goodbye to the girl, she hurried away.
"Hey, that girl is very pretty, you have a good eye!" Jefferson looked at the back of the singer girl who was far away, and talked to Daniel in a low voice.
"She sings very nice songs, she is a good listener." The boy replied casually: "But that's all, I'm not picking up girls, thank you. Let's go. It's time to meet Dorei Mr.'s family."
Daniel took the juice mix in his hand and drank it.
"Still too sweet," he whispered.
