Chapter 1499: Accept the Defeat

Originally, Gan Xiaoyan hoped to use the First Bar, which had a clear nameplate and was obviously different from the cabin, as a rendezvous point, but after opening the door, she found someone, and...

To be honest, it was hard to determine whether it was a person or a monster in human skin.

The two stood at the door and were embarrassed for a moment.

Lei Lei cast her eyes on Gan Xiaoyan. It was still time to close the door and leave.

Gan Xiaoyan thought about it for a moment, nodded at her, and walked in.

As the saying goes, you can't get a tiger cub without going into the tiger's den.

Gan Xiaoyan's mission this time was to investigate, not to solve the problem of the ghost ship. Any opportunity to obtain information about the ghost ship should be seized.

This was the first time that they encountered a living creature other than their own people on the ship. Even if there was a risk, they had to try it.

The two took a few steps forward and could clearly feel that the gaze that had been staring at them just now was withdrawn, as if they had lost interest in them.

Gan Xiaoyan looked around and found an etched metal plate next to the door.

It says:

‘Bar Rules’

1. Fighting is prohibited in the bar.

2. The bar will provide free drinks, passengers can take them by themselves, or ask the bartender to mix drinks for you, but please be sure to taste at least one glass.

3. Except for the drinks that have been drunk, the drinks in the bar cannot be taken out of the bar. Please drink in the designated area.

4. Smoking is allowed in this area, and high-quality cigars are provided. Please use matches carefully.

5. Try not to disturb other passengers, otherwise you will bear the consequences.

There are only five rules in total. The others are actually easy to say. You must drink when you come in, which makes people hesitate.

After all, this is a ghost ship. Who knows what the drinks they provide are. What if they are poisonous or cursed?

But if you don’t follow the rules, you will bear the consequences.

Although the two have never seen the consequences of breaking the rules, it is obviously an unnecessary risk. It is better to be as careful as possible before reuniting.

So after a little consideration, the two walked to the bar.

"Welcome, what would you like to drink?"

As the two approached the bar, the bartender who was wiping the glasses with his back to them turned around.

Gan Xiaoyan's heart skipped a beat, because the bartender had no eyes. His face looked human, but the eyes were completely wiped off, leaving only a flat piece of meat.

Ordinary people would be scared if they saw this thing suddenly, but Gan Xiaoyan and Lei Lei were both members of the Ninth Department who often dealt with supernatural events, and one was a cultivator. They had seen too many terrifying and disgusting ghosts, so they didn't scream.

But this also confirmed that there were indeed monsters on this ship.

Gan Xiaoyan calmed down and said:

"Give us two glasses of screwdrivers."

"Okay, please sit down and wait."

The cocktails were lower in alcohol than pure alcohol. Since the rules said that they had to drink, it was better to choose something that would not make you drunk, otherwise after two glasses of Erguotou, you would be staggering when walking.

The screwdriver is a cocktail made with citrus juice and vodka, and it is sweet and sour.

The bartender quickly picked up the cocktail glass and started to work. The two sat on the chairs in front of the bar and looked around.

What is more interesting is that there are private rooms in this small bar.

To be precise, the so-called private rooms are just drawn with dark curtains, and it is also the only place in the bar that cannot be seen at a glance.

"Has anyone else ordered drinks recently?"

Gan Xiaoyan wanted to find out some information and asked casually.

"It's a bit busy today. A guest before you two ordered a silver bullet."

This bartender looks like a monster, but he can still communicate well.

Gan Xiaoyan asked:

"What does he look like?"

"A young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, probably a student, well-mannered."

It's Jiang Zhe!

It seems that someone has come to the bar in advance.

However, when Gan Xiaoyan and Lei Lei came in, they did not see Jiang Zhe in the bar.

Of course, the premise is that the bartender is telling the truth.

Just as she was about to ask more questions, the bartender was quite quick, and two glasses of orange cocktails were already placed in front of the two.

"Please enjoy."

Lei Lei signaled Gan Xiaoyan not to rush, and then she took the glass first.

Monks are resistant to toxins, almost immune to all poisons. They are ruthless people who eat arsenic as food and at most they will only suffer from constipation. Moreover, monks are much more sensitive to energy than ordinary people. If there is poison or curse in the wine, Lei Lei can also find it at the first time.

She took a sip gently, waited quietly for two or three seconds, and then nodded to Gan Xiaoyan.

No problem, you can drink it.

To be fair, Gan Xiaoyan felt that this glass of screwdriver was the best one she had ever drunk. It was cool and soft in the mouth, without the disadvantage of vodka alcohol, but you could taste the mellow aroma of strong liquor.

But on such a weird ghost ship, it is really difficult to enjoy a glass of wine.

"Do you know where the boy who ordered the silver bullet went?"

The bartender pointed to the curtained area on the other side of the bar:

"He has been here and has not left."

Is he hiding behind the curtain because he is scared?

What's the difference between this and hiding in the quilt barrier after watching a horror movie?

It wouldn't be strange if someone else did this in a state of shock, but Gan Xiaoyan knew Jiang Zhe, he was very brave.

Jiang Zhe's ability emphasizes defense and survival. The General Administration describes his ability as "difficult to eliminate without heavy weapons."

This is why Jiang Zhe always takes the lead. He is really not weak.

Would he hide behind the curtain because of fear?

This is impossible.

The two of them became alert and left the bar with their glasses, walking towards the place covered by the curtain.

As the distance got closer, the two heard heavy breathing, as if a person was in an extremely nervous state and was breathing too much.

Then, the curtain that blocked the view was pulled down from the inside, and Lei Lei stepped in front of Gan Xiaoyan.

Then, the two saw Jiang Zhe sweating profusely, and even wanted to turn around and run in a somewhat embarrassed manner. This time he turned around and saw Gan Xiaoyan and Lei Lei. He just wanted to open his mouth to say something, but his mouth was moving, but he couldn't make any sound.

He seemed to be in a panic in fear.

Jiang Zhe stretched out his hand to Gan Xiaoyan and Lei Lei, and the next second, the hand suddenly seemed to be flattened and turned into a piece of paper.

Not only his hands, Jiang Zhe's entire body seemed to be flattened. Rather than a person, he looked more like a human-shaped sign sticking at the door of some stores.

And this human-shaped sign was still alive. Gan Xiaoyan and Lei Lei could see that Jiang Zhe's eyes seemed to be moving, but he could do nothing.

This sudden change scared both of them. At this time, a man's voice said in the shadow behind Jiang Zhe:

"This is not okay. It is the rule of this table to accept the loss."

Jiang Zhe, who was directly transformed into a second dimension, quickly shrank and turned into a transparent thing like a plastic card, and fell into the man's outstretched hand.

Gan Xiaoyan and Lei Lei's scalps tightened instantly, and it seemed that reason was screaming in their heads, and every cell in their bodies was reminding them loudly.

Danger, this man is extremely dangerous.
