Such an answer might be tantamount to a declaration of rejection for "little boy" White; but in Moriarty's view, the subtext expressed by the green-eyed girl is exactly the opposite of its verbal appearance.
The so-called visiting the store is just a casual excuse. According to Trish's personality, this waitress is definitely not a model clerk like a good baby. And the reason why the green-eyed girl responded to Moriarty's invitation like this
, apart from the usual reserve and a little pride of beautiful women, the main purpose is to make things difficult for the other party, to see what other benefits Moriarty can come up with, and what soft words to say to "hide" herself and "take the bait". Then the waitress will come again.
After much thought and deliberation, I finally reluctantly agreed to go out and "hang out" with them.
However, in the final analysis, even if Trish would agree to Moriarty's invitation, the green-eyed girl herself would not want to think too deeply about it, and she would never admit it.
"Well, I have to look at the store... It's such a pity. I originally thought we could have a happy reunion after a long time, but I neglected your work at the bar. But, I'm afraid White and I will have to leave Fort Ford again tomorrow. Next time
Maybe it will be a few years before we meet again." However, Moriarty did not come with three invitations and four invitations as the waitress had guessed. After hearing his "rejection", he just sighed to himself, and even
He also pointed at White and Trish "for unknown reasons", making the green-eyed girl embarrassed and angry.
"Leaving tomorrow?" However, no longer willing to fight against Moriarty, Trish turned to look at White and asked loudly.
"This..." Under the intense gaze of the green-eyed girl, White had no courage to look back, and instead turned to the mage for help.
"But this is not certain. If you drink too much in the pub tonight, you will naturally not be able to leave tomorrow." Moriarty smiled slightly and added.
"Humph, I only bully little girls every time." After hearing this, Trish still didn't understand what the other party meant, but she didn't want to give in so easily, so she just snorted with a tigerish face, turned around and left.
.
"Morty, this..."
Seeing the green-eyed girl suddenly leaving with a hint of anger, White became a little uneasy. Moreover, Trish did not formally agree to Moriarty's invitation until the end, which seemed to make White very frustrated.
"Don't worry, she will come together." Without explaining in detail, Moriarty just gave the follower a positive answer. After hearing this sentence, although he still had doubts in his heart, the mage smiled.
In his eyes, White was too embarrassed to say anything more, so he could only lower his head and attack the double dinner in front of him.
I have to say that although I haven't visited Roland Bar for a long time, the taste of golden lamb chops is still wonderful. At least in White's opinion, this delicacy full of Erathian flavor is definitely more to his taste than anything he has eaten in the southern ice field.
Even Heyna tried hard to learn Erathia's cooking techniques to prepare some special meals for Moriarty, but after tasting them together, White always felt that something was missing. It's not that there was any deviation in color and taste.
, but it was an inexplicable feeling. Maybe it was just subconscious, but White always felt that it was not the smell of his hometown.
Just like a few years ago, White devoured the first portion of mutton chops in a short period of time. Then, he drank a full glass of water in one go, and then White let out a comfortable burp.
It was as if Long Kuang's stomach had finally been deeply enriched and satisfied. And just when he was about to take a breath before continuing the second half of the food journey, suddenly, a high-pitched angry shout came clearly from the other side of the hall.
came. Immediately afterwards, there was a muffled sound of "click", tables and chairs fell to the ground, and the noise of broken dishes and bowls was accompanied by screams of fright and anger, which pierced through the dancing and singing on the central stage. Immediately,
White stood up with a snap and turned quickly to look at the source of the chaos. Because the owner of the screaming voice was none other than the green-eyed girl Trish.
"Let's go and take a look together." At this time, Moriarty also put down his knife and fork, stood up from the armchair and said.
"Yeah." As if he couldn't wait any longer, White nodded and strode directly in the direction of Trish, with Moriarty following behind.
At the same time, many bar patrons also leaned over and gathered around.
"You short guy, not only do you want to default on your debt, you actually dare to smash things. It's so abominable!" Before the two of them could get closer, Trish's signature yell sounded again.
"Who said you'd have to default on your bill!? You'll be charged fifty-five Erathian gold coins for a piece of dried mutton chops. Are you planning to cheat money? Also, you're not allowed to call me 'short guy'!" said Moli.
When Artie and White passed through the onlookers and entered the inner circle of the conflict, they saw a dwarf man with a silver beard, only about one meter tall, and as thick as a century-old tree stump, standing opposite the waitress.
He was arguing fiercely with his face red.
"Huh, what do you know, a short guy with no taste? Let me tell you: this lamb chop is made from the freshest and most elastic front leg meat of Othello's one-year-old ram, and then grilled over a delicate charcoal fire.
Cook it to medium rare, and grill it with slices of extremely delicious Bertin forest truffles. Also, do you know what those black particles on the lamb chops are? I guess you don’t either! They are from Bracada
Black caviar from the southern coast and Zhenzong’s diamond coast caviar are equivalent to gold. Tell me, don’t you think such delicacy is worth fifty-five gold coins?”
The green-eyed girl's eyes widened, staring fiercely at the dwarf's head wearing a thick leather felt hat, and she unceremoniously scolded him for "being as crude and crude as a country bumpkin." However, the description and narration she used,
It's almost a replica of what Moriarty told her back then. It's hard for her to remember it exactly after all these years. It seems like it's often used to bluff people.
"Ah? This..." The dwarves who have always lived a simple life never imagined that there are so many incredible details hidden in a seemingly simple set of mutton chops. However, looking at the expressions of the waitress and the people around her, it seems that it is not a lie, so
The dwarf, who had always been a straight-tempered person, couldn't resist the fiery gaze of the green-eyed girl above his head. He lowered his head and struggled and said, "But you didn't say just now that the mutton chops cost as much as fifty-five gold coins."
"Really? I just remember your guest saying, 'You can bring whatever is delicious'. Do you dare to say that our Roland Golden Lamb Chops are not delicious?" Seeing that the dwarf's "arrogance" was finally suppressed, Special
Ruixi shouted happily again.
"It's... delicious." The honest dwarf couldn't tell a lie, but he only became more dejected.
"Then everything is clear. Now, dear guest, please settle the bill. Also, if you broke the table and dishes, you must also pay for them."
Looking at the triumphant expression of the green-eyed girl, Moriarty secretly sighed. It became clear that the silver-bearded dwarf in front of him was the big Kaizi who was caught by the waitress tonight. He didn't know it either.
Seeing that there was something displeasing about this dwarf, Trish actually greeted the dwarf in the same way she had treated him. As a result, the dwarf unfortunately fell into the waitress's food trap.
"But, I really don't have that many gold coins to give you. Before I went out to travel, the elder only gave me ten green forest gold leaves. The total of them is not enough for fifty-five Erathian gold coins." After holding his breath for a moment, the dwarf
Finally he explained with great reluctance.
"That's okay. I think you, a short guy, are quite strong. Why don't you help in the small kitchen of our bar. If you work hard, you may be able to pay off the debt in ten years. Also, I think
Your hammer is also quite heavy. If you sell it for scrap, it might be worth a few silver coins." As he said that, Trish pointed to a black hammer that was almost as long as his height next to the dwarf.
.
After hearing what the waitress said, the silver-bearded dwarf immediately changed his expression and hurriedly hid the hammer behind his back.
"Haha, if I were you, I would never try to arm this gentleman. Otherwise, if you are not careful, the anger of a seventh-level 'Moradin' will not be so easy to resist." At this time, Mori
Artie suddenly took a step forward, came between the waitress and the dwarf, and said.
"Hmph, what do you want to do again?" Seeing Moriarty suddenly appear to disrupt the situation, the green-eyed girl immediately glanced at him angrily.
"Who are you? I don't recognize you!" Almost at the same time, the silver-bearded dwarf stared at the mage warily, showing no appreciation for the other's generous words.
"This is our first meeting. However, the dwarf's hammer is the best self-recommendation letter, isn't it?"
Moriarty pointed to the side of the black hammer and saw seven small white hollow circles arranged in a straight line. In the world of dwarf professionals, a hollow circle represents the first professional level. Can
Those who are qualified to inlaid a set of seven white rings on their hammers are naturally the seventh-level Moradin warriors with the holy name of "Moradin, the Dwarf God".
"Hello, I am a second-level mage, Moriarty." Looking at the dwarf's somewhat suspicious expression, Moriarty smiled again and greeted him with the professional courtesy of a magician.
"Hello, I am the seventh-level Earth Moradin, Guderian." The silver-bearded dwarf stared at the mage for a while, then carefully looked at the two silver stars on the chest of the mage Moriarty's robe to confirm that it was not a fake, and then followed the rules.
He nodded in return.
