Qin seemed to have noticed his address, and thought for a while, "I almost forgot, this is the first time you and Barbara have officially met, right?"
"That's it."
Gu Bai recalled that in the past, he met Barbara a few times scatteredly, for example, he received treatment from her when he first came to Mond, saw her performance at the celebration dinner, and When Qin passed out, everyone sent her to church to meet her, and even helped her a little.
But except for tonight, there has never been a chance to really talk, let alone friends, not even acquaintances.
So from Qin's point of view, he and Barbara are actually half strangers.
"In this case, let me take this opportunity to introduce you."
Speaking of Qin, she stood up, "This is Barbara, my sister, a nun from the Westwind Church."
She looked at Barbara again, "This is Gu Bai, an honorary knight of the Knights, and a friend of my sister."
So the two of them looked at each other under Qin's introduction, and said hello very politely. As for what was in their hearts, only they knew.
"I've heard Miss Barbara's name a long time ago, and this time I finally met her formally. She turns out to be the sister of Captain Qin." Gu Bai smiled, "But, this is something I've known for a long time. Shouldn’t it be a secret?”
Barbara also stood up and bowed to him, "Thanks to you for what happened tonight, otherwise my sister..."
Naturally, she was referring to the matter of driving away the Fengmolong. In the timeline when the two did not talk privately, this was the most important thing they should say after meeting.
"It's okay, the deputy chief usually takes good care of me, not to mention that in an emergency, he didn't care about thinking so much and just went ahead. I'm quite scared after thinking about it."
This is probably self-inflicted in a sense.
Repeating what he said not long ago, now there is no fluctuation in his heart, only exhaustion.
It looks very interesting, right? Two people who are not strangers, in order to hide something, so they got to know each other again like strangers.
But what is it to cover up?
This is not a comedy that makes people shake their heads and laugh, but Kernel can call it sad. He thought of the tears left by Qin in the alley, which looked crystal clear and dazzling under the moonlight;
And what I once said to Lisa.
keep distance.
Now that he has made a decision, no matter what he does behind his back, at least in front of Qin, he is downplaying his own existence.
The sudden dragon disaster provided a turning point for things, so that the bleeding wound would not be torn apart again, and all he had to do was follow the turning point and leave the rest to time to heal.
He always felt that he owed Qin something, so before looking for Keli, he thought about what he could do for her, but this was in contradiction with keeping a distance, and there was not much he could really do.
Just a little bit, something close at hand.
Rather, there are only two things I can see, one is the relationship between the two sisters, and the other is the division between individuals and responsibilities.
So tonight's conversation with Barbara is based on that, as is the tirade about people's trust and dependence.
The former has already seen a good result, and the latter has a plan in his heart;
The old is broken, but so is the new.
With the reconstruction of the city and the threat of the wind dragon, Qin may be able to take a new step.
Regarding their identities, attitudes and relationships, all the past will also disappear with the rolling gravel.
And when these two things are done, he no longer needs himself, and that is the time for him to leave for Liyue.
This is what he has decided in his heart tonight.
Looking back now, I can't tell what kind of emotions I have. At least Qin's attitude made me feel relieved. She can also figure out what she can figure out. As for her identity and situation, is this a forced choice... I'm sorry, I can't take care of so much anymore.
Things got off to a good start, but the end result was not to make anything solid, but fragmented, which made people feel complicated.
But the complexity should not be manifested at this moment, Gu Bai continued the topic just now: "Ke Li has been found, and Miss Barbara and I have known each other... Other than these, there seems to be nothing important."
He looked at the two sisters, "Do you have anything else to say, I'll go back to sleep without me."
"I don't have any more." Barbara shook her head. In fact, she is eager to urge her sister to go to bed now, so she naturally wants to follow Gu Bai's words. She rubbed her eyes and looked at Qin, "If there is nothing else, we At once……"
"Actually, there is one more thing." Qin thought for a while, "Senior Di Luke came here not long ago..."
Speaking of which, she hesitated for a moment, and said, "It's Mr. Di Luke from Chenxi Winery. Before he met Keli, he had encountered a lurking abyss mage..."
"I know." Gu Bai interrupted, "Including the whereabouts of Fengmolong, Miss Barbara has already told me about these things."
"Then about this information..."
"My opinion is similar to yours, and the other information has been told to you and Lisa."
Before Qin could speak, Gu Bai asked again:
"In the daytime, there should be related discussions, right?"
"Well, if there is no accident, there will be a reasoning and review specially launched for this. Kaia and Lisa will be there."
"time?"
"Tentatively at noon."
"Then let's talk about it when the time comes." He pointed to himself, "I really can't hold on now."
Qin nodded slightly, "It's been hard work, go back and rest, and pay more attention to your body."
Unexpectedly, this sentence was actually said by Qin to himself, he smiled lightly, "Okay, you too, see you at noon."
After he finished speaking, Gu Bai stood up, the above sentence was enough for his farewell words, he waved his hand casually, pushed open the door, stretched himself hard after he got out, and walked up the stairs slowly.
And only Jean and Barbara were left in the office.
After Gu Bai's figure disappeared at the door, Qin looked away, got up and put the cup away, "Okay, we should go too."
After she finished speaking, she saw Barbara sitting there in a daze, and couldn't help laughing, "What's the matter, didn't you want me to go back a long time ago, too sleepy to walk?"
"Isn't sister going to see him off?" Barbara suddenly asked in a low voice.
Qin just shook her head and didn't speak. She found another coat and handed it to Barbara, "I'm going back soon. I still have a lot to do when I get up."
Barbara took it silently, and she seemed to have found the answer from this sentence.
Then the two sisters simply tidied up the room and locked the door;
Walking out of the Knights, there were a few tiny cracks on the stone road under her feet. Barbara kicked a stone away and sighed when she saw it.
Every time I see the broken streets, I feel sad, let alone my sister who always wants to protect the city.
She had no choice but to lower her head, hurried past a collapsed house, and comforted, "It will get better."
When I looked up, I found that my sister was no longer by my side.
Barbara turned around, and in her sight, Qin was walking not far behind. She seemed to be walking very slowly tonight. Sometimes she silently looked at the buildings on the street, and sometimes looked at the cold moonlight, as if to make this Keep everything in mind.
She doesn't quite understand what that means, maybe it's the same as the relationship between the two of them; maybe it's just pure sadness and nostalgia; or maybe it also has a more complicated meaning.
-------------------------------------
Find the key, the two rooms next to it are empty, Ying is in the church, and Yula probably went back with Amber.
He let out a long breath, threw his coat on the chair casually, did not turn on the light, and pulled himself together, Gu Bai walked to the window, leaned over and took a look to the side.
It was Keli's room, and the windows were closed, it seemed that my worries were unnecessary.
Then he fell on the bed with a quilt under him, but he was too lazy to cover it, so he just made do with it.
He kicked off his boots slowly in the moment before becoming unconscious. The window was not closed, let alone the curtains, so the moonlight in his vision was gradually dimming.
The beam of light symbolizing the dawn passed through the clouds, and he closed his eyes slowly.
This long night... is finally coming to an end.
When the Song of Songs Sounds: Chapter 221 A New Day, New Socks
Gu Bai turned over uncomfortably.
In a daze, I felt a burst of heat, as if my whole body was wrapped up.
Half asleep and half awake, his thinking was not coherent, so he couldn't figure it out after thinking about it for a long time.
Until I opened my eyes with difficulty——
There was a dim scene around him, but he was indeed wrapped, and the quilt was crookedly covering his body, and he could feel his feet exposed outside.
Ok……
It turned out to be a quilt.
He thought so.
There was a dim scene in his sight, and he continued to lie on the bed, pulling away the quilt little by little, staring at the ceiling absently.
Finally ushered in a new day.
At the same time as he had this thought, he realized that it was already past zero when he fell asleep, so this name is not accurate.
And more things also flooded into my mind, recalling the scenes that happened under the night, all kinds of emotions were brought back to the bottom of my heart, and I fell heavily.
The feeling of relief from just waking up disappeared in an instant.
He covered his face with a pillow.I wish I hadn't thought of these things.
Forgot to hear who said that when sleep is no longer a kind of enjoyment, but is used as a necessary means of replenishing energy, it means that your life is depressed.
According to this standard, he wants to be the former, but unfortunately without that skill, what should he be?
Gu Bai sighed.
It is not a good habit to sigh first after waking up.
You know, I am still a young man in his twenties.
So he sighed a second time.
I really want to lie down all day with my mind empty, however, nowadays, this has indeed become a luxury.
Recently, he has been thinking about the tobacco rod in Rosalia's hand, and he really wants to buy a similar one to hold it in his mouth, but unfortunately, he just thinks about it.
I can't lie down any longer.
I made an appointment to discuss the follow-up plan, and I hope I don't get up late.
Thinking of this, he sat up and realized that the room was pitch black.
How long did you sleep by yourself?
It's only an hour or two, so it's still night; or does it just span the entire day?
Looking at the position of the window, the expected light did not strike, but was tightly blocked by the curtains.
Gu Bai frowned.
Stepping on the floor with bare feet, he looked down for the slippers, but only saw the fallen boots.
He groaned belatedly, only to remember that he didn't change his shoes when he came back, but threw himself on the bed directly after entering the door.
But... he remembered that he forgot to close the curtains.
Didn't even close the windows, and fell asleep exhausted, and now—
Gu Bai looked at the window again, the curtains were quietly closed together, and there was light in the gap in the middle.
Excluding the possibility of his memory being wrong, it means that someone had entered the room while he was sleeping.
Such a discovery is refreshing and heart-wrenching... In short, it is impossible to be too vigilant, but when it comes to actual actions, he just glanced at it briefly, then looked away, and then got out of bed and walked to the window.
Judging from the result, he is still standing here, which means that the person who came here did not harm him, otherwise he would have died a hundred times;
And before the other party left, he chose to close the curtains. His seemingly caring behavior seemed to be deliberately leaving clues. At least, the other party didn't mind being aware of his existence...
With a bang, Gu Bai opened the curtains, and his vision suddenly became brighter. The sun shone down and scattered in the room on the second floor of the Knights. He covered his eyes with his hands, and saw his calm face in the reflection of the glass. .
There are many similar inferences. The reason why I don't feel much is not because I have a strong psychological quality and can stay calm in the face of danger... The most important reason is that he just gave Yula a key a few days ago.
What else could it be? I guessed it the moment I found out that something was wrong. She must have come back and had a look at me in the room.
Gu Bai yawned, turned around and looked at the table behind him, there was a paper bag on it without accident, walked over a few steps, and breakfast was inside without accident.
It's not the sliced toast in the restaurant, but a golden and plump croissant, the skin is crispy when you press it, and it looks like you made it yourself in the morning.
He put the bread back and was about to eat it after washing. Suddenly, a thing that he hadn't finished thinking about before came to his mind, about Rosalia's cigarette stick of the same style.
What really dissuaded him from this idea was that some people think that smokers smell bad.
So, what else can I do, just quit it.
