The World is Sick
Page 358
At this time, the surrounding neighborhood was very quiet. The pedestrians walking on the road walked neatly, as if they were stepping on the beat. Although they were doing various things, their eyes were always lingering around the Seventh Heaven Bar.
Because they were distracted to monitor a certain direction, a few of them didn't look at the intersection and went straight forward, bumping into a girl carrying a flower basket.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, the blond young man riding a black motorcycle pulled the handlebar, slid sideways, and reached out to hug the flower girl who fell towards the concrete floor into his arms.
With the sound of the dull friction of the tires, Claude gently put down the flower girl, and withdrew his right hand from the girl's waist like an electric shock, bowing his head shyly to advise.
"Something might happen here today, you'd better be careful and sell flowers elsewhere."
At this time, Iris, a girl from the slums in the abandoned commercial area, nodded gratefully, looked at nearly half of the flowers scattered on the ground, squatted down sadly, and picked up the remaining pistils.
At the same time, his worried eyes turned to the Seventh Heaven Bar.
Due to the excavation of ancient relics by Shinra Corporation, the crystallization disease spread. Many infected people had to leave their hometowns to seek medical treatment in Tokyo, where the headquarters of Shinra Corporation was located, in order to obtain new targeted drugs.
The high expenses make these patients who have no power and no power can only live in the slum areas of abandoned commercial areas, and make a living by various means including theft and robbery.
And Iris lives here, and what is even more unfortunate is that her parents also died one after another due to the continuous infection of the crystal disease.
Thanks to the care of the kind-hearted people in the Seventh Heaven Bar, she, a weak girl, can survive in the dangerous environment of the slums.
Later, in order to maintain Iris' self-esteem, everyone in the Seventh Heaven Bar decided to order fresh flowers from this girl every day to decorate the bar.
As a result, Iris has a marginal job of planting and selling flowers. Although her life is hard, she is very happy.
The gratitude in her heart also makes Iris always want to do something for everyone in the Seventh Heaven.
But at noon today, with the reduction of stalls and the influx of many new faces, Iris suspected that everyone in Seventh Heaven might be in trouble, so she came alone, wanting to warn Tifa and others.
Unexpectedly, he was bumped into by those unfamiliar faces on the way, and was rescued by a shy blond young man in front of him.
It's a pity...it's from Shinra...
When Iris picked up the flowers, she couldn't help but sigh slightly when she thought of the logo on the motorcycle.
"I'm here to help..."
Some enthusiastic Claude jumped off the locomotive, picked up the dew-stained flowers one after another, and inserted them into the flower basket.
"Iris..."
After finishing her work, the gentle girl stretched out her hand with a sweet smile.
"Claude..."
This super soldier of the Holy House Army couldn't help but stare in a daze. After a moment of daze, he stretched out his hand shyly, and gently held the girl's fingertips.
However, Iris hesitated for a moment, but held Claude's palm with both hands, and made a request earnestly.
"Claude, we know each other, right? So, can you do me a favor?"
"These flowers are a reservation order for the bar over there, and they must be delivered before twelve o'clock. If it's late, I won't be able to pay the liquidated damages at all..."
"So, can you send this flower basket there, please, if you are willing to help, I will pay for it!"
It was the first time that a girl held his right hand so tightly, and Claude's shy heart was suddenly dizzy by the delicate and soft impact, and he nodded subconsciously.
Immediately, Claude grabbed the flower basket, quickly rushed across the road, and after showing his ID to the four Black Armor Saint Palace soldiers at the entrance of the Seventh Heaven Bar, he delivered Iris' request safely.
"The work has been done, there is no need to pay, go home!"
Claude returned to the flower girl and advised again, with a sincere tone.
"No! You must get paid what you deserve. Well, since you don't want cash..."
"So... let's go on a date! How about taking me home, Mr. Bodyguard?"
Iris carried the flower basket with both hands on her back, then leaned back and smiled softly and mischievously.
Claude clasped those hands in a strange way, and followed behind blankly. As for the order of a certain captain ordering him to stand by nearby, he forgot for a while.

Chapter 517 Chapter [-] The Fancy Lying Gun Audience (Gageng)
With the sound of wind chimes, the door of the Seventh Heaven Bar was gently pushed open. Kevin forcibly suppressed the urge to turn around and run away, and smiled innocently and brightly.
Because the hall was almost full of acquaintances.
At the second table from the left, Interpol Jill and Shirley, dressed as foreign tourists, are drinking colorful cocktails, and chatting with a few little lolitas who are running around with trays.
Beside the large table in the center, the five Valkyries of St. Freya Academy were whispering to this group of adopted children and exchanging gifts.
The pink short-haired female gun swordsman Lei Ting sat in front of the counter, drinking cocktails one by one, holding a stack of family documents of the sons of the curse in her hand, and fixed her sharp eyes on Tifa who was mixing drinks.
"Your Excellency, the procedures for adopting these children at the Seventh Heaven Bar are all right?"
Tifa handed the newly prepared Bloody Mary to Lei Ting's hand, smiling gently but with a sense of distance.
Lei Ting nodded lightly, and then hung by her ear, whispering coldly.
"You know what I'm looking for, not this one, where is that bastard Snow?"
"Although I want to help, I'm sorry. I don't know what you are talking about. Everyone in the Seventh Heaven Bar has always been a good citizen who obeys control and pays taxes on time..."
Tifa's smile remained the same, and she stabbed back neither softly nor hard.
"I wish you were still so calm when I caught him..."
Lei Ting took a deep look at this girl who was soft on the outside and strong on the inside, and the coldness on her face became more and more intense, and she pressed herself on the table and got up slowly.
"I wish you and the Holy Palace Army will eliminate the evil as soon as possible, and restore the peace of Midgar Street..."
"Thanks for your patronage, the total charge is 53472 yen, please pay by card or by cash?"
Tifa brushed back some messy hair, then smiled and reached out to Thunder.
so tall!Lei Ting's face darkened, and he took the bill and checked it carefully, but he couldn't find any flaws, because all the materials in it were of the highest standard.
And while the woman was stalling for time, she drank more than ten glasses.
No wonder the wine is served directly after entering the door!Obviously, I was cheated!Lei Ting's right hand couldn't help gripping the gun sword tightly, and touched his pocket, feeling a bit stuck.
Most of her consumption points are used to maintain the life of her younger sister Sera. Recently, her work has been unfavorable and her salary has plummeted. In addition, she is not good at financial management, so her life is already a bit stretched.
For a meal of 5 yen, she really might not be able to scrape together such a luxurious expense this month.
"Cough cough!"
The two Interpol in the corner showed half of their IDs, with playful expressions on their faces, making it clear that they wanted to continue watching the show.
Lei Ting couldn't help being a little anxious, took out his mobile phone and dialed the number of his little brother who didn't spend much money, but when he called, there was a blind tone that no one answered.
"I invite you this time to reward you and the Shengfu army for their hard work in maintaining law and order. Please take care of our business in the future..."
Tifa saw Lei Ting's embarrassment, smiled softly, and expressed her kindness.
Unexpectedly, the stubborn Lei Ting snatched the bill with a cold face, turned around and handed it to someone behind him.
"You! Pay for me! Pay it back later!"
At this time, the eyes on the field were immediately focused on that short figure, and the meanings of strangeness, amazement, astonishment, eerie, etc. swarmed.
"Uh, beautiful big sister, you are so good-looking, you will not lie, I trust you! Remember to return it to me!"
Big cold sweat dripped from Kevin's forehead, he immediately took out six bills from his wallet full of ten thousand yuan bills, and obediently handed them to Tifa.
He looked like an elementary school student who had been robbed by a female bully.
Lei Ting picked up the gun sword and walked out the door without looking back. Naturally, he didn't mention Kevin's identity.
Based on her personal relationship with Kou Kou, it's just a loan. In terms of human relations, it's a big deal. She won't pursue Kevin's last betrayal and the Holy Grail she snatched, and block some news about this little bastard.
It's better to give back to their family than to owe favors to these dangerous elements.
Moreover, it was a group of people who used her!
"Good eyesight!"
When passing by the table on the left, the female policewoman Jill secretly gave a thumbs up, her lips and teeth moving, her expression teasing,
"I'm lying on the gun, can't you see it?"
Kevin rolled his eyes back and made a mouthful of defense.
"How did you get together with the people from Shinra Company?"
Leiden Mei's scrutinizing eyes pierced, and the oak knife showed half an inch of edge.
"Bullying! It's obviously the darkness of society, what can I do as a child!"
Kevin continued to use the child's disguise to complain, and it was best not to expose his relationship with Lei Ting.
Because once Shinra Company knows that he is the final winner of the Holy Grail War with a [-]v[-], the opponent will definitely take corresponding measures.
Since the difficulty of the task can be reduced through intelligence errors, why foolishly make the other side vigilant?
"Didn't scare you? Vi...Kevin..."
Tifa walked out of the counter, smiled apologetically, gently stroked Kevin's head, took all these coincidences as Thunder's anger, and inadvertently almost called out another name she gave Kevin, "Ville".
Since sending Kevin home that night and being attacked by Thunder, she has already formed a wrong perception of the boy's identity, and regretted exposing Kevin to Thunder.
In addition, the meaning of family affection attached to the name "Ville" strengthened this concept even more, making Tifa regard Kevin as his younger brother who needed to be protected.
"It's okay, Miss Tifa, no matter what happens, Will will protect you, just like before..."
Facing this healing smile, Kevin was even a little ashamed. He couldn't help but bury himself in Tifa's arms, leaning close to the ear of the big sister next door, and whispered.
"boom!"
The clear sound of the glass shattering came to everyone's ears, Lei Dian Mei looked at the splash of cocktail juice on the table, blushing and hastily picked up a paper towel to wipe it off.
"Sorry, accidentally..."
