Fei was in a good mood to reunite with the group leader.
Rean was in a good mood as well.
Today's strategic intentions were all achieved.
We have captured all the hunters who can be captured, taken all the vaccinations that need to be taken, and created the atmosphere that needs to be exaggerated. There is also an unexpected surprise. If every next step can go so smoothly, the future will be reversed.
The ultimate goal will also become much easier.
For the first time in a long time, I felt a sense of relaxation that I wanted to get drunk and let go, just like my temporary roommate Randy.
The former Jaeger seemed to have regained some of his past feelings in Happy City, doing only one thing from beginning to end.
drink wine.
Drink with the Hunter King, drink with the cadres of West Wind, drink with Rean, Sarah, Claire, and drink with people you don’t know.
Just hold the red wine and champagne and blow on the bottle.
Of course, the Hunter King is in for a treat.
Otherwise, with Randy's current salary, it would still be a pain to spend money in such a high-end casino.
Everyone knows about wine, but when you drink it you don’t feel it, it has great stamina.
Not long after returning to the room, Randy fell on the bed and fell asleep without taking off his clothes or taking a shower, wasting the shower room of the Derflinger.
Of course Rean won't be like him.
First of all, the exercise has just begun. The first day is just a warm-up, and the main event is later.
Secondly, not all the things to be done today have been done.
There are still two important meetings, and I might have to continue drinking.
Therefore, he has always strictly controlled his alcohol intake, not daring to drink too much, let alone imitating Tova or Randy.
He skillfully helped Randy take off his coat, put away his equipment, and also poured a glass of water and placed it on the bedside.
You ask why he is so skilled?
Of course I saw too many drunkards.
The master, the adoptive father, and Sarah who didn't drink enough and continued to drink alone in the dining car - she was one of the people Rean was going to meet.
The dead of night is the best time for heart-to-heart conversations.
But before going to Sarah, Rean has to go find another person first.
A woman whose life is more entangled, more tiring, and more difficult to open her heart than Sarah.
Claire.
If he missed this opportunity, Li En didn't know if he would ever be able to listen to her reveal her true feelings again.
After peeking into the tree of cause and effect through Qiya's power, he clearly understood that fate is made up of gears. If any gear is not meshed, the trajectory of fate will deviate.
He didn't want to drift away from Claire.
After thinking for a while, he took out the remaining inventory from under the bed and put it into his coat. Rean walked out of the car seemingly casually.
Through the flow of breath, he had already captured Claire's position.
Outside the carriage, near the field tent where supplies were placed, there was another person.
Michael Irvine.
They are not only colleagues in the Railway Gendarmerie, but also close relatives.
When I walked out, I happened to hear Michael's voice:
"Enough is enough, Claire. Although you appreciate it, your actions today will only harm yourself."
Different from his usual cold and solemn attitude, at this time, Mihail felt more earnest and sincere, like a younger sister who couldn't be beaten or scolded, and couldn't listen to advice.
"Brother, you don't understand..."
Claire no longer had her usual sassiness, and there was obvious wavering on her face.
The two of them just froze.
Rean knew that this was the best time to intervene in the world, and deliberately coughed.
The two people who were immersed in their thoughts suddenly woke up and forgot to come over.
"who is it?"
"who?"
"Sorry, I didn't eavesdrop. I just felt it was a bit stuffy in the carriage. Come out for some air. Instructor Randy drank a little too much."
Li En was prepared and dealt with it calmly.
"That guy Randolph, I shouldn't have let him out."
Michael frowned out of habit, complained to himself, and then said to Claire.
"——I have given you advice. Think carefully about whether you should continue to be bound by what you were ten years ago."
After saying that, he strode away, leaving behind the ice girl whose eyes were changing, and the gray knight who was staring at the ice girl quietly.
I have to say that this person usually seems inhumane, but at critical moments, his emotional intelligence is unexpectedly online.
When Claire's expression improved slightly and she raised her gaze again, Rean took out a bottle of wine and two glasses from his windbreaker as if by magic.
"Want some? I think you need this."
Claire was amused by this unexpected move: "You have been drinking for most of the night, and you are still drinking? You were not like this before."
"I think you'll need this."
"You were...not like this before."
The same words, but completely different tone.
The first time was just about drinking, but the second time was more about the person himself.
"The old me... did the Major really know about it? Before I came to Thorz... So it was the same for me. I knew nothing about the Major's past. I just took it for granted that the Major would need wine."
"Yeah, we don't understand each other, maybe we don't understand each other well enough, each other's past."
Claire sighed, her beautiful eyes slowly closed, then opened again quickly, and spread her hands towards Rean.
"But you are right about one thing, I do need wine now."
Rean used the technique taught by Angelica to pop open the cork of the wine bottle with his bare hands, poured a glass for Claire and himself, and took the lead in raising the glass.
Claire then clinked her glasses, drank it all in one rare gulp, and signaled Rean to pour it again.
This style is not like the Ice Maiden at all, but like the "Purple Lightning" who is drunk, although Rean feels that when she is drinking, she should be called "The Young Fire... er... Big Sister".
Li En continued to pour wine for her and continued to clink glasses.
He didn't say anything during this period, he just drank.
After drinking three glasses in a row, Rean poured the wine for the fourth time, and then Claire slowly spoke:
"You...don't say anything...don't ask anything?"
"Because I'm not sure whether Major Xi wants me to ask. If so, I will be a qualified listener. If not, I will be a qualified drinking buddy."
It's not just retreat to advance, it's his true thoughts.
It's good to talk about the past as you did before coming back again, but it's also good not to talk about it, but to release yourself and relieve stress through drinking.
She was really drunk, but Rean wasn't afraid. The worst he could do was to keep her company all night, and then send letters to Rector and Miriam to pick up people when they needed to, and ask for leave when needed.
Although the empire is currently short of manpower, no one will doubt that Claire is slacking off. The responsibilities and pressure she has endured have long exceeded her age.
Maybe, this method would be better for Claire who also has many things buried and no one to talk to.
Rean himself and Randy next door have all certified it, and it is indeed effective.
Claire, on the other hand, chose the third path that Rean had never imagined.
"I want both the audience and the drinking buddies to ask and drink."
"good."
Rean doesn't talk nonsense. He strictly controls his alcohol intake just for now.
"Major, please tell me your past, I want to know."
