Chapter 1038 Passing By

Following Wu, Qin Ran walked into the corridor connecting the small hall and the front hall of the tavern.

Wu stood under the wall lamp, and the dark red carpet exuded a faint sense of softness in the light.

"Your cloak looks nice."

"The feathers of a crow are very dazzling."

Wu said slowly.

"It's a cloak."

Qin Ran frowned and corrected the mistake in the other party's words.

"cloak?"

"The cloak without the hood is really strange, just like when I met you here... 2567 Do you believe in fate?"

Wu's low and hoarse tone became slower and slower, as if his whole person was trapped in memories.

Kieran's brows furrowed even more tightly.

He could clearly sense that the other party had just said that deliberately in order to elicit the so-called 'destiny'.

destiny?

Qin Ran didn't believe it.

It's like he believes that life doesn't wait.

It may be cruel, but it's reality.

However, Kieran didn't like talking about this with a stranger, nor did he want to fall into the other person's rhythm.

"Is that [lucky card] real?"

"Is it still a joke?"

Kieran carefully selected his words and changed 'trap' into 'joke'.

Of course, if it was really a joke, even if Rachel was there to mediate, the other party would definitely be on Kieran's blacklist.

Thankfully, this isn't a joke.

Wu looked at Kieran quietly for two seconds, as if he wanted to see through the system's cover and see Kieran's true face.

"It's not a joke."

"I just want to talk to you a few more words."

In the words, Wu initiated the transaction.

[Lucky Card] appeared in the transaction column, and Wu had already clicked OK.

At this time, Kieran only needs to click OK to get the [Lucky Card].

It's completely free!

But Qin Ran didn't do that.

After he raised his head and glanced at Wu, he put all the points, skill points, and [Darnan's Grip] and [Phantom Thorn] in the transaction column.

Then, I clicked OK.

Kieran's cautious habit, which he had developed over a long period of time, suppressed his restless and stingy heart.

Qin Ran didn't know why Wu did this.

But he knows the value of [Lucky Card].

He also knew that his relationship with Wu was just a stranger.

For Qin Ran, these two points are enough.

No matter how great the value and benefits were, Kieran still knew what to do when facing a stranger.

He will not accept a gift from a stranger for no reason.

After all, this goes beyond mercy and charity.

What's more, even if it's mercy or charity, Qin Ran will still choose to refuse.

Why?

Pride.

Poor, ridiculous pride.

That was Qin Ran's only, only thing.

Qin Ran didn't want to lose any more.

"There may be errors, but not too much."

"If it doesn't meet your price, I can make up the difference."

Qin Ran said.

"No need, just enough."

Wu shook his head.

"Well, see you later."

Qin Ran nodded, turned around and walked towards the door.

Wu looked at Qin Ran's back until Qin Ran's back disappeared behind the door, then murmured to himself: "Exactly the same, exactly the same...is this a gift from fate?"

The cards flew out of Wu's cuff with a murmur.

Twelve cards danced around Wu Fei, and the cards kept changing, like butterflies in the flowers.

In the end, the cards in the twelve chapters were fixed together.

Twelve different cards, divided into left and right, appeared in front of Wu.

On the left are: clouds, rivers, forests, wilderness, mountain tops, and morning light.

On the right are: hunger, war, disaster, plague, darkness, and chaos.

…

No card is the same.

And that's not the end of it.

Twelve cards quickly overlap and alternate, changing back and forth.

Among them are knights, demons, and beasts.

Also among them are palaces, scepters, and crowns.

Finally turned into...

…

The door behind him closed, and Qin Ran ignored Wu.

In Kieran's mind, the other party was the player who made a transaction, and there was nothing else other than that.

Go around the bar.

The mimosa crawling there immediately jumped up.

"2567!"

"me……"

Mimosa wanted to explain about his drunkenness before, but when the words came to her lips, she was embarrassed and shy and couldn't say anything.

In fact, the whole person shrank to the side.

Totally timid and harmless looking.

The mimosa in a normal state is the one that even the cowardly animals despise.

But the mimosa in this state is what Kieran is most familiar with.

Also familiar is lawlessness.

Lawless, with wet stains on his body, sat on a high round stool with his back leaning against the bar and his hands on it. The cigar in his mouth did not affect his words at all.

"How about it?"

"How's it going inside?"

"Rachel, that mean guy, won't let me in at all."

"What a damn rule."

Lawless complained.

“Very average, not as good as here.”

Qin Ran said hello to several acquaintances around him, and then handed all the trophies packed before to Lawless.

"Old rules."

Qin Ran said.

"knew."

After Lawless made a reassuring gesture, he started to contact the buyer.

Mimosa, on the other hand, looked at Kieran anxiously from the side.

Mimosa didn't know what happened after being drunk.

But Mimosa knew that bad things would happen to him when he was drunk.

Whether it was his relatives or his hypocritical friends, after the only time he got drunk, they never let him touch alcohol again.

Although he drinks really well...

"gone."

Qin Ran said.

"Um?"

Mimosa raised her head and looked at Kieran without knowing why.

"Let's go, let's take you home."

"Although there are mechanical law enforcers in the huge city, there are too many loopholes."

Kieran said and walked forward.

Mimosa looked at Kieran who was walking forward, and was stunned for two or three seconds. When Kieran's hand touched the door of the tavern, he finally came to his senses.

"Wait for me, 2567!"

Mimosa quickly caught up.

The two figures disappeared behind the door of the tavern together.

…

Humming an inexplicable tone.

A figure walked briskly on the street, and his destination was the Harvest Tavern.

A place he didn't like, but didn't hate.

“It’s nice to be able to go in and have a drink.”

The other person murmured to himself, and his humming tone became more and more cheerful.

Even when they saw Qin Ran and Mimosa walking out together, there was no change at all, as if they were two people who had nothing to do with each other.

The two sides passed each other.

The man entered the Harvest Tavern without stopping.

Qin Ran's footsteps were paused.

"What's wrong?"

Mimosa asked.

"nothing."

Qin Ran frowned, but he didn't say anything more, didn't even look back, and walked forward again.

Mimosa followed closely this time.

Don't miss a step.
