Endless vast other world

Chapter 49
Sora turned his head to look.

is a girl.

The girl's face looked very white because of a layer of makeup.White to a little too much.

Under the thick thick eyebrows, there are a pair of black eyes.The corners of the eyes are also drawn longer, making them more prominent.

In front of her chest, the clothes were propped up high.Lips painted with lipstick resembled bloody wounds.It shows an overly enthusiastic wildness, but it can arouse people's desire.

Her arms and breast are bare.Only the neckline on the chest was lightly inlaid with a layer of pure white lace.

Her blond hair was tall and fell in waves behind her head.Above the neck, a fluttering golden cloud formed.

In her pair of open eyes, there are two gray and bluish pupils inlaid, which makes the expression in the eyes very special.

Her nose is very small, so it is full of tenderness and coquettishness.Its charming degree is of course not to mention.

The best part is.She was wearing a maid outfit.

Sora was subconsciously at a loss when he saw a beautiful girl.

He stood there with his mouth wide open, not knowing what to say.

The girl didn't have any embarrassment.

She asked, "Are you Mr. Kongma?"

Kongzhen stammered and replied: "You, you, you know me?"

The girl smiled: "Please come with me."

She skillfully introduced Sora and Keni to the city of horse racing.

Sora couldn't react.My mind is dizzy.

Why does this beautiful maid know herself?

Kong Zhen followed behind the maid, and walked into the horse racing city in a daze.

The maid said to the two of them, "You must have been exhausted after traveling so far. I'll take you to the bathhouse here to take a bath first."

Kernie was noncommittal and had no opinion.

Nodding mechanically.

The baths are also in the huge square of this horse racing city.

As soon as Sora opened the door and went in, he saw a large amount of marble.

The entire large bath is made of marble.Marble floors, marble murals, marble statues...

The whole bath house is tall and divided into two floors.The gates are all marble round arches.

Kong Ma estimated that the entire venue could accommodate 2000 people taking a bath at the same time.

There are three huge bathing pools.Divided into cold water, hot water, steam three.Each occupies a house.

Sora noticed.The hot water hall has the largest area.Probably the hottest pool for people.In the hot water hall, there is also a lounge, entertainment room and exercise room.

The plane layout of the entire bathing area is becoming more and more symmetrical.The main body is rectangular, and the longitudinal axis is the hot water hall, cold water hall and steam hall.There are entrances and changing rooms on both sides, massage rooms, olive oiling and soaping rooms, etc.

The halls are arranged in a certain order for fitness and bathing.Boiler rooms and storage rooms are underground.

It was discovered after empty observation.There are densely packed pipes under the bathing ground and inside the walls.Hot air and smoke were passed through the pipes for warmth.

Even in the cold water hall, it was not cold at all.

Sora soaked in the hot water pool.

"Ah... so comfortable..."

Sora couldn't help but say.

Along the way, the fatigue and tediousness of the journey disappeared at this time.

After soaking in the hot pool, it seems that all troubles have disappeared at any time.

At this time, other people are busy carnival outside.Sorama is the only one in the huge bath.

Sora lay on his back in the hot pool.

He had never enjoyed it so much.It seems that the meridians of the whole body are stretched.

Really see.The roof of the bath is also very distinctive.

The entire large bath is covered by cross arches.

Various patterns and shapes are painted on the arch shed.There are even stories with plots like comic strips.

Various types of arch coupons have different sequences.Their size, shape, height, light and shade, opening and closing are all varied.There is an artistic sense everywhere.

In the vault, there are also heating pipes.

Sora looked around.The resplendent walls complement the countless murals and statues.

The whole bath is in the center, and there is also a large fountain.Constantly spouting clear spring water.

All the marble is collected from the Yajeze Sea.Beautiful and strong.

Marble sets off various eccentric decorations.Dazzling and luxurious.

Sora couldn't help but sigh with emotion.This is not a bathing place. If you say that this is an art gallery, you would believe it.

Even a bathhouse can be built so luxuriously.Oberstein really deserves to be called "a place with infinite gold mines".

After Souma finished washing, she went to the dressing room.

He planned to change into the fancy dress that Kerney had prepared for him.

Sora unfolded the suit.

He was a little embarrassed.I feel flustered and uncomfortable.

He was wearing ordinary clothes before.It was the first time in my life to wear such a grand dress today.

However, he was always a little worried about the effect of this outfit.

After putting it on, I feel so empty.The boots were slim and lean, too, but not patent leather.The shirt inside was nice, but the fabric was so thin that it seemed to have a tear in the front.

The pants on the lower body are a bit too fat.The outline of the legs is not visible, as if wrapped around the calf.

that's all.Sora put on all the clothes with anxiety and worry.

Sora is especially worried.He has always been an ordinary boy.It seemed that such gorgeous clothes did not match his own temperament.

Will you be ridiculed?
Sora moved slowly to leave the bath.

suddenly.He saw a well-dressed gentleman standing opposite him, looking at him.

The two are so close.Sora took a step back involuntarily.

Bumped into someone else.Sora felt a little embarrassed.

But then, it was a shock.

The person standing in front of him is not himself.

turn out to be.A large floor-to-ceiling mirror was installed at the entrance of the bath.

The "well-dressed gentleman" he had just seen was him in the mirror.

Sora couldn't help being surprised.

Because his suit is obviously much better than what he originally imagined.

Even Sora only had a small mirror in his residence at Hellingbor.So before coming here, Sora didn't have a chance to take a picture of his whole body.

Now.In the mirror, seeing this attire suddenly, he could hardly recognize himself.

He mistook the man in the mirror for another person.And a nice person.

At a glance, his posture is so well-fitted and chic.

Sora looked at the mirror carefully.I feel that my attire is really impeccable.

At this time, footsteps came from outside the door.Someone really came this time.

Sora is still shy after all.He was afraid that he would be caught by someone, so he walked out quickly.

After leaving the bathroom door, he found that the maid was already waiting for him outside the door.

The maid looked Sora up and down, looking very satisfied.

"Not bad, not bad, not bad... Isn't this very good. This kind of dress is only suitable for Oberstein's temperament."

"When I saw you for the first time just now, I was taken aback. I heard that you are a well-known figure in Wangdu. Why are you dressed so badly?"

The maid was half joking, and half seriously said to Sora:
"In Oberstein, you can live without a bed, but you can't live without a decent set of clothes."

While speaking, Ke Ni also came out of the ladies' bath.

Her hair was still a little wet.

There are also some faint water mist, looming, steaming from her hair.

Ke Ni has also changed into the fancy dress that Fu Nuo prepared for her.

Kerney was wearing a black dress with an open back.The skirt showed her slender figure vividly.

Seeing Sora who had changed his clothes, Ke Ni couldn't help being pleasantly surprised.

"Oh... I didn't expect it to be so suitable..."

"Really?" Sora was a little shy.

Both Sora and Keni lowered their heads.

Seeing that the two were about to start complimenting each other again, the maid coughed lightly twice.

"Uh-huh, uh-huh!"

Sora and Keni were taken aback.

"Sorry to interrupt you," said the maid.

"However, we have more important things now."

Sora just remembered.Until now, he still didn't know the maid's name.

"By the way. Who are you? How do you know me?"

Sora couldn't wait to ask the maid.

The maid smiled and said, "Let's talk as we go."

The maid took the two of them around the entire racecourse.

The two followed the maid and enjoyed a full view of the magnificent racecourse.

"My name is Moira." The maid introduced herself to the two.

"I'm a waitress in the horse race town of Oberstein."

"Terry sent me to meet you two."

"Terry, is he okay now?" Sora interrupted Moira.

Moira smiled: "Don't worry. Terry is basically fine. He invited you here this time because he wants you to do him a favor."

"And where is he now?" Kerney asked.

"He's in a dance hall in Racetrack City now," Moira said.

"I'll take you to see him now."

Sorama and Keni followed Moira and walked towards the dance hall.

The entire city of horse racing is a huge square shrouded in emerald green glass.The dance hall is also a corner of this square.

From the bath to the dance hall, there are still a few streets to walk.

It was midnight.Under the strong light, the facade of the dance hall is bright.

The four streets that meet here are reflected like daytime.

Go to the door of the dance hall.The welcoming girls at the door offered to bow to Moira.

The one standing in the middle stretched his hand towards Moai flatteringly.

Really see.Among the waiters in this horse racing city, Moira should have a relatively high status.

Moira asked the welcoming girls:

"Which box is Mr. Terry in?"

"In box number seven."

After receiving the box number handed over by the other party, Moira pushed open the door covered with velvet cushions and equipped with copper bolts, and brought Sora and Ke Ni into the dance hall.

The hall was filled with smoke.The stage, the entrance part and the farther places are shrouded in a mist.

Almost everyone in the seat is smoking.Some smoked cigars, others smoked cigarettes.

From these cigars and cigarettes rose tiny columns of smoke.Close to white, as thin as a cicada's wing.

Plumes of smoke fluttered up to the top of the ceiling.Gathered under the wide vault, around the chandelier and above the second-floor stands full of spectators, forming a gray area.

The dance hall is surrounded by a circular corridor, and the entrance is particularly spacious.

At the entrance, a group of beautifully dressed girls flowed endlessly among the dark men.

Three counters stood against the wall.Inside each counter stood a woman who had faded from her youth but still wore heavy makeup.

While selling drinks, they licked their lips and stared at the passing men.

Right now, one of them is standing right in front of the counter, chatting with a group of girls.

Behind them stood several tall mirrors.From the mirror, you can see their bare backs and the faces of passing men.

Moira nimbly shuttled among the crowd, walking quickly.

Sora could tell that Moira was already used to such scenes.

After entering here, Sora realized why he needed to wear a good dress.

Here, where everyone wears fancy clothes, if you don't wear a good set of clothes, you will appear to be a different kind of person.

In the center of the hall of the dance hall, there is a huge stage.

At this time, there were three young men on the stage performing hanging bars in turn.

One is tall and one is short, and the other is of medium build.

They were all wearing clothes made of thin gold foils.Under the illumination of the stage lights, it radiates light to the surroundings.It seems that they are the ceiling lights here.

The tallest one walked to the front of the stage first with small and quick steps.

He smiled and waved his arms towards the audience as if to blow a kiss.

Under his corset, the muscles of his arms and legs are clearly visible.

He puffed out his chest so that he could tuck his stomach in.The hair on his head was split in two sharply in the middle.

I saw him jump and hold the hanging bar.Then hang with both hands on top, turning the whole body around the hanging bar.Like a speeding wheel.

subsequently.His arms were tense, his body was straight, and he made a supine position in the air without moving.Hold the hanging bar completely with the wrists of both hands.

After getting off the bar, he greeted everyone again with a smile in the applause of the audience in the front row.

Then he went to stand by the curtain.Every step he took showed the well-developed muscles of his legs.

Now it's the shortest man's turn.Although this person is short in stature, his body is thicker.

He went up to the stage and did the same thing.

The third person does the same thing.But the applause from the audience was even louder.

A host came on stage with a microphone.He wears extremely ostentatious clothes and has an exaggerated and funny accent.

He announced loudly that the acrobatics just now were a hot show.Soon, the real female singer is about to debut.

The people in the audience cheered and cheered.

Sora looked at the seat under the stage.

There is really something for everyone.

Really see.There are shop owners, city clerks, reporters from small newspapers, security officers in plain clothes, well-dressed dandies, artists engaged in art, and gorgeous girls with heavy makeup...

They are the most intriguing mob.

Some of them have just had dinner in a restaurant, some have just watched an opera...

But the common feature is that they are all bored now and come here to have fun.

There are even some foolish ones who bring their wives and children with them.

There are also some people in the audience, who belong to the category of dubious and eccentric.Maybe, there is a bunch of gangsters or killers among them.

but.No matter who they are, no matter what they are.At this moment, they are all sitting under the stage, enjoying the same performance.

They even toasted each other, pushed each other to exchange glasses, and made fun of each other.It's like a friend you haven't seen for many years.

Sora even witnessed the absurd scene of the guard and the gangster toasting each other.

This is the charm of Oberstein.

through the frenzied audience.Moira led Souma and Keni to a wooden box.

On the lintel of the box, there is a small golden plaque.On the plaque, the number seven is engraved in silver.

This should be box number seven.

Moira pushed open the door and let Souma and Keni in.

The box is small and has no canopy.There is a red carpet on the floor.The four seats are also red, and the distance between each other is very small, and the guests can just pass through them.

Here it is necessary to talk about the structure of the dance hall.

The so-called box, but not a completely enclosed small room.It's just a more luxurious seat.

Ordinary pool seats are placed under the stage with a few small tables.There are four or five people sitting around the table.

As for the boxes, fine wooden boards are used to separate them from each other, which is convenient for conversations, meals and tea.Privacy is better.

Even if you are sitting in the box, you can still watch the performance.

At the table in the box, sat a dwarf.

He is leisurely watching the show.

Even though I haven't seen him for a long time, I still recognize him immediately.

That's Terry.

Not only did he not look old, but he looked more energetic.

His big white beard was also neatly combed.

Sora called him, "Terry!"

Terry turned his head: "Ah, Sora and Kenny are here!"

Terry looked very happy.His face also became more rosy.

"Come and sit, come and sit." Terry greeted.

Sora, Keni, and Moira sat down.

As soon as he sat down, Sora couldn't wait to ask: "Terry, you said you were in trouble? What happened?"

Terry took a sip of his drink.

He was a little embarrassed: "Oh... Actually, I didn't encounter any trouble..."

"What!" Sora and Kenny said in unison.

Terry scratched his head embarrassingly: "Actually, I just hope to invite you to come to Oberstein and have a good vacation..."

"Isn't it?" Sora was surprised.

Sora took out the letter written by Terry: "But what did you say in the letter, if you don't get help, you will be on the verge of despair and even commit suicide". , all in one fell swoop'. What's going on here?"

Terry asked, "If I didn't say that, would you still come?"

Makoto couldn't refute.

Indeed, Sora is a workaholic.If Terry had sent a letter asking him to come to Oberstein for vacation, he would never have come.

However, Sora was still very unhappy.

He was a little dissatisfied and felt cheated.

"Oops, oops, oops..." Terry patted him on the back.

"Don't blame me...you usually work so hard, so why don't you take a break?"

Kerney fully accepted the situation.

Ke Ni also persuaded Kong Zhen: "You really work really hard. It's really okay to take a break."

"A person is like a balloon. When you work normally, you just inflate it. When you take a break once in a while, you just inflate it. If you only inflate it and don't deflate it, the balloon will explode sooner or later."

Both Kenney and Terry have said that, so it's hard for Sora to say anything more.

Moira pursed her lips and smiled.

"Come on," Terry said.

"The singing is about to start. Let's enjoy it together."

Several friends who met in different places sat down.

At this time.Sora heard commotion outside the door.

The city of Oberstein naturally gathered a large number of beautiful women.

What do they do?

Needless to say.

They all surrounded the dance hall at night.

After all, the dance hall at night was full of fish and dragons, so it was a good place to cover their actions.

All those women saw it just now.Sora, a well-dressed gentleman, entered the box.

Oberstein is actually a forest.

Every man is a hunter.Every woman is a trap.

Kong Zhen, this inexperienced stunned young man, does seem to be a good prey.

Those women, after seeing Kongzhen enter the No. [-] box, all embraced him.

So they swarmed up, and they all gathered at the door of Box No. [-].

but.Due to his status, he didn't dare to open the door openly and enter.

so.They gently pushed the door open a crack.Looking into the house.

Sora saw at least two women through the crack of the door.

A woman, leaning her elbow on their box.It's a fat brunette
Beside her was another woman who dyed her blonde hair red and was also very fat.

They also stared at Sora through the crack of the door.

And, let out a very obscene laugh.

then.The brown hair said a word to the red hair.

Pretending to be a whisper, but on purpose, with a voice that anyone can hear.

The brown hair said to the red hair:
"Look, what a handsome fellow! I don't think I can refuse..."

Scared that Sora might not have heard it, the red-haired man repeated it again.

Sora actually heard it.But he didn't know what to do at this time.

Terry noticed too.

He wanted to tease Sora.

Terry turned around, smiled, and patted Kong Zhen's thigh:
"This is for you. She has taken a fancy to you, Sorama. Please accept my congratulations."

Sora suddenly blushed.

He couldn't tell whether Terry was teasing him or really complimenting him.

Subconsciously, Sora put his hands into his vest pockets.

at this time.On the stage of the dance hall, the curtain has been opened.

The band started playing.

They played a waltz, ready to accompany the female singer who was about to enter the stage.

Terry is still teasing Sora.

Terry pointed to the crack of the door and said to Sora:

"Should we really call them in?"

Terry was just kidding.

but.The two women outside the door were serious.

They took Terry's words as a kind of calling.

The brown hair and the red hair actually pushed open the door and walked in.

As soon as they entered, Sora really had a headache.

Brown hair and red hair, with a strong strange smell.

As soon as they entered the door, the air in the room was already polluted by the smell of tobacco, sweat and the smell of poor quality perfume on their bodies.

Kong Ma inhaled into the body, and immediately coughed violently.

However, brown hair and red hair are unaware.

They are disgusted with Sora and know nothing about it.

Even secretly, he is complacent about his "beauty".

Brown hair snuggled up behind the box.She had the fat red hair on her arm, and there was a look of arrogance in her eyes.

These two are truly a natural partner.Either way, it's a perfect fit.

They came to Sorama and gave Sorama a skilled smile.

That kind of smile has been practiced for a long time.

In that smile, there was some decency, but also some charm.

Through this smile.In an instant, the brown-haired and the red-haired have already told Kong Zhen the secrets in their hearts.

The smile certainly sold well.After all, this is what they do for a living.

The brown-haired man pulled over a chair and sat down safely opposite Sora.

At the same time, she let the red hair sit down too.

Then, she yelled in a crisp voice:
"Waiter, please have two glasses of pomegranate juice."

Terry was taken aback.

He just wanted to have fun with Sora.Unexpectedly, they were actually brought in.

Terry was a little annoyed and said:

"Why are you so presumptuous?"

After hearing Terry's words, the brown hair sneered disdainfully.

The subtext is self-evident:
"It's this young man that I'm in love with. Why don't you get in the way, you old man."

Sora sat there timidly, unable to say a word.

He had never experienced such a thing and didn't know what to do.

He could only smirk, caressing the curly corner of his clothes nervously.

A waiter came in and brought the two glasses of sherbet the brunette had asked for.

The two of them immediately drank it down.

Terry turned blue with anger.

Terry just wanted to tease Sora, but unexpectedly he got angry with himself.

Brown hair and red hair, but completely ignored this blue-faced ugly old man.

They stood up and gave Sorama a small and friendly nod.

The red hair even used the fan in his hand to lightly hit Kong Zhen's arm.

The red hair smiled and said to Sora:
"Thank you, my little kitty. You are so hard to talk."

The brown-haired man also opened his mouth, and said charmingly:

"You are so handsome. I'm afraid I would do anything for you!"

The brown-haired and the red-haired are so intoxicated by their "beauty".

However, the void is no longer available.

He was sweating profusely and panting from the foul air the two women had brought in.

Sora coughed again.He had to say:

"Please leave immediately, both of you!"

But the brown-haired and the red-haired are not aware of it.

They wandered around the room, approached Kong Zhen, smiled and asked Kong Zhen:

"Sir, would you like something to drink?"

"Okay. Bring him a glass of water from the sink."

Ke Ni, who was at the side, spoke suddenly.

Ke Ni had been enduring it just now, and she didn't have an attack.

Now, she couldn't take it anymore.

After mocking the two women, Kenny gave Sorama a resentful look.

That look, like a piranha hidden in the eyes.

"Fuck you, it's really uneducated."

The brown-haired and red-haired muttered and left angrily.

They twisted their bodies and walked away step by step.

Before leaving, he did not forget to wink at Sora one last time.

Moira was amused by the drama just now.

Terry also forgot his anger just now, and let out a burst of laughter.

Taking advantage of Ke Ni not paying attention, Terry moved closer to Kong Zhen's ear and whispered to him:

"Brother, do you see that you have a natural charm for women. I hope you take care of yourself, and it will definitely benefit you a lot in the future."

Before Kong Zhen had time to refute, Terry mused to himself thoughtfully:
"If a person wants to make his way to the top, passing them is the most labor-saving shortcut."

This is what Terry condensed his half-life wisdom and said.

Coincidentally.At this time, the female singer finally appeared on the stage.

It's really coming out after a long time, still holding the pipa half-hidden.

The audience has been waiting for a long time.Already a little tired.

but.Seeing the female singer, everyone cheered up again, and the crowd cheered.

Moira knew everything about Oberstein very well.

Moira told Sora that this is Oberstein's most famous female singer.

After the female singer came on stage, she cleared her throat.

all of a sudden.The originally noisy dance hall is now all quiet.

People can't wait to hear her sing.

Really well-rounded.I really want to.

After the whole audience fell silent, the female singer began to sing.

Kong really heard it.This song seems to be praising a young girl.

"Her eyebrows are like emerald feathers, and her skin is like suet."

"Her face is set off by peach petals. Her hair is covered with golden phoenix silk."

"Her eyes look like enchanting eyes."

"Her figure is as slender as bamboo shoots in spring, and as charming as she is."

"The slanting red silk, the swaying makeup, gorgeous and noble. The tall hairpin beads, emerald green hairpin, showing brilliance..."

Kong Zhen listened, and felt that the female singer sang really well.The lyrics are also good, and the singing is also good.

Sora couldn't help but hum along.

Terry listened for a while, but felt that he was not listening.

He is getting older.It was so late at night that he was going to sleep.

Terry asked Sora: "Are you staying for a while? I don't want to stay any longer, so I'm going back."

Sora is still intoxicated in the singing.He murmured:
"Okay, I'll sit down a little longer. It's still early."

Terry stood up:

"If that's the case, I won't accept it."

"Right." Terry suddenly thought of something.

"Tomorrow morning, please come with me to the racetrack. I have something important that I want to show you."

"Okay." Kong Zhen nodded.

Terry repeatedly urged: "Don't forget about this. Tomorrow morning, the racetrack!"

"It's a deal." Kong Zhen said.

Terry said, "Okay. See you tomorrow then."

They shook hands.

Terry patted Kong Zhen on the shoulder and walked away.
