Several thoughts flashed through Ji Huan’s mind.
But none of them are very good.
Just as Abu clenched his fists and was about to stand up, Ji Huan grabbed him.
Pushing down the cloak on his head, Ji Huan signaled the bartender to come over.
After he passed the wine in his hand to a guest, the bartender quickly noticed the noise here.
“May I ask what you need?”
He smiled slightly.
However, the bartender with iron-blue skin, a body size similar to Abu, and a ferocious appearance looks very unfriendly even when he smiles.
Looking at him with dark eyes, Ji Huan’s expression remained unchanged, but he just said lightly: “This wine is good, I want to take some back.”
The bartender smiled even wider, revealing his thick white fangs.
“How much do you want?” He asked with a smile.
“Five barrels.” Ji Huan said calmly.
“This wine is very expensive. Five barrels cost twenty gold bars, and even with a discount, it costs nineteen gold bars. Can you afford it? “Looking over the young demon and his companions’ clothes in front of him, the bartender quickly guessed Abu’s identity: he is not very old, has good physical conditions, and is likely a “robber”. Perhaps he is still a pioneer. With a few small coins in his hand, he went beyond his means and came here to have fun in the luxury area.
Little does he know that even his boss wouldn’t dare to act recklessly in the bar here. Which one of the demons that can open bars in luxury areas are easy to provoke?
As for this young black-haired demon, the bartender couldn’t guess the identity of the other party:
This one was quite slim in stature but he couldn’t detect this demon’s breath, and instinctively felt that the other party was very dangerous.
At first, he seemed a bit dangerous when he was just sitting there, and when the other party took off his cloak and met his gaze, the bartender only felt a shiver in his heart.
Many high-level demons are like this, with an ordinary figure and body shape. Even if they quietly sit in one place, they will have an astonishing aura around them, bringing endless pressure to people.
Although his face still looked ferocious, Abu felt a bit guilty. Before he came here, his money was enough for him to spend for a few days, but he spent a lot in the previous bars to buy wine, and now his pocket is almost empty! ! ! !
Oops! Before, he patted his chest in front of Ji Huan and said that he would be responsible for the bar expenses, why, how…how could it not be enough!
Just when Abu was thinking about how to borrow money, Ji Huan suddenly moved.
His pale and slender fingers took something out of his cloak. He first placed five gold bars on the bar, then reached in and took out five more. After a moment, a total of twenty gold bars were placed on the bar.
The gaze of the surrounding demons immediately focused on him.
“It looks a little strange,” said the bartender.
He grabbed a gold bar and carefully examined the patterns on it, frowning slightly.
Abu’s heart suddenly rose: This, no, yes, yes, fake, fake currency, right? !
Moreover, even if it is real, there are patterns on it. The more complex the patterns, the lesser the quality of the gold, right? Wouldn’t it be rejected ! ! !
“…But the material is real gold.” Just when Abu’s heart was suspended in mid-air, the bartender had already grabbed a gold bar and bit it to confirm. His eyes fell on the unknown pattern on the gold bar, and the smile on the corner of his mouth got wider without a trace.
Indeed, it is a demon with a background. It is said that many high-level demons with large territories will issue their own gold bars, on which various patterns and characters will be carved to represent badges and affiliation marks. Some demons even carve their own monster forms on them, which is even more valuable!
He couldn’t understand the patterns and words on these gold bars at all, but the monster on them looked majestic and extremely fierce. It was precisely because of this that this young demon must have a great background!
“…”
O demon! You think too much, in fact, what’s written on those gold bars is just xxxx bank gold. When Ah Jin came over, he brought some gold bars from major banks, and the ones left for Ji Huan happened to be from one of the banks. And the purchase year was probably the year of the dragon, so the pattern on them happened to be a dragon pattern.
“…”
Ji Huan doesn’t know how many things the demon on the opposite side imagined in the past ten seconds, and he just looked at him blankly, saying in a deep voice, “Is that enough?”
The bartender raised his eyes and looked at him: “Not only is it enough, but there is… also an extra one.”
He pointed to one of the gold bars.
“That’s a tip for you.” With his chin raised slightly, Ji Huan put the cloak back on his head.
Look, there is also the habit of tipping, it really is a rich and powerful demon! Local demons don’t give tips easily~
After collecting the wine and the tip, the iron-blue-skinned demon called a waiter to take his place, and then waved to Ji Huan and Abu: “Please follow me. “
He led them through a secret door behind the bar, and they walked in a long corridor.
“I’ll take you to the warehouse to pick up the wine.” The bartender explained.
A light bulb suddenly lit up in Abu’s mind: That’s it!
The little gray devil had an accident while delivering goods. If they want to know what happened to him, it is useless to find the bar. It is best to go to the place where the accident happened but how could these people let them in the warehouse for no reason! This is exactly what he was worried about just now, if he directly stated his intentions, it might just give the other party a chance to cover up. It’s okay if nothing happened, but if something really happened to the little gray devil, maybe the two of them would also get in trouble here!
Ji Huan was still smart, and in an instant, he thought of buying in bulk, in this way they are more likely to enter the other party’s warehouse. Even if the other party does not agree, it doesn’t matter. They can still force it on the grounds of checking the wine’s quality.
Abu instantly figured it out, and he admired Ji Huan even more in his heart.
No wonder he doesn’t grow tall, he uses it all to grow his brain!
The hallway was filled with the smell of wine, but it’s not because there were too many barrels stored that the aroma of wine spread to the outside. On the contrary, it seemed as if a large amount of wine was spilled here.
He noticed that Ji Huan took a sniff, the bartender also smelled the scent in the air: “This is the smell of Rhoda wine, um… just today someone came to deliver it, It is said to have spilled a bit. I had someone clean it up before, why is it still not okay?”
As he spoke, he raised his voice and called out, “Ya Li! Ya Li!”
When the name was called out, the pupils of Ji Huan and Abu shrank at the same time.
It’s right here!
Immediately afterwards, accompanied by the sound of “coming” and “coming” responses and footsteps, the music went from almost imperceptible to deafening.
Then, a potbellied demon came over carrying a music player, and the sound of music came from the player on his shoulder.
This is the person! Although the music sounds different right now, it is indeed a similar style of music! From the background sound he heard when he received the call, it can be seen that this person named Ya Li must have been by the little gray devil’s side at the time.
“Ya Li, didn’t I ask you to clean it up? Besides us, there are also big clients who come here. This smell is too impolite…”
“Uh… reporting to the boss, the smell should go away after a while…”
It turned out that the bartender was the owner of this bar.
Just at this moment, Ji Huan glanced at Abu, and Abu immediately understood his meaning, and moved suddenly.
Although his speed is not as fast as that of the little gray devil, it is not inferior compared to ordinary demons, let alone his immense strength. Coupled with the speed of the sprint, like a gust of wind, he instantly turned into a phantom. By the time the bartender noticed his figure reappearing, the demon named Ya Li had already fallen into Abu’s hands along with his player.
“Don’t, don’t touch my player! Please!” Ya Li, who was full of flesh, looked at his player with heartache.
Ignoring his plea for mercy, Abu threw his player to the ground.
“What… what’s going on?” The iron-blue-skinned demon was stunned, but he didn’t look too surprised.
“Just now I received a phone call from a friend. His job today was to deliver the goods to you, and I think he had an accident here.” It wasn’t until now that Ji Huan revealed his intentions.
“Hehe, how could it be? “The bartender, no, it should be said that the owner of this bar laughed and said,” I’m a serious businessman, not a human trafficker.”
“Oh? My friend is very sharp. He won’t make a call for no reason, and he will definitely leave clues. I’m going to call my friend. If the phone rings here, something must have happened to him here.” Ji Huan took out the phone.
“Please call.” The demon boss was not in a hurry, with a smile still hung on his face, the light in the wine cellar was dim, and the mottled light spots hit his face, looking extremely gloomy.
Staring at his face, Ji Huan dialed the phone.
One ring…still connecting…
Two rings… still connecting…
Three rings… connected, but no phone rang in the wine cellar…
And then——
“Hello.” The phone was connected suddenly.
“Boss, it’s me. Abu and I are at the Golden Flower Bar. Xiao Hui has disappeared here, and we may also have an accident. Please tell our whereabouts to Grandpa.” Ji Huan told his current situation and location in one breath.
The smile on the face of the bar owner instantly froze.
“Who is his boss?” The bar owner said suddenly, and a shadow fell beside him.
It was only then that Ji Huan and Abu discovered that the wine cellar was unknowingly full of demons.
As long as the two of them took an inappropriate action, then—
The shadow then whispered something in his ear.
The face of the bar owner became very bad.
Ten minutes later, dozens of luxury cars surrounded all the passages around the bar. Then among a group of bulky demons, a thin old demon jumped out of a car in the middle.
It was Adan.
All the nearby bars were cleared, and three minutes later, Adan, accompanied by a group of bodyguards, sat face-to-face with the bar owner.
“Where is my only subordinate?” The old demon’s eyelids drooped on his cheeks and his body trembled slightly, and his whole person looked extremely vulnerable. However, such an old demon, who was so old that one didn’t know when he would die, was an invisible street tyrant of Yefar.
As long as any demon gets mixed up in Yefar to a certain extent, they will know about this old demon.
Even the owner of the Golden Flower Bar knew Adan’s name.
“Sorry! Sorry!” With a smiling face, the bar owner hurriedly wanted to send someone to bring the person up. Unexpectedly, no one came after waving his hand for a long time. He looked around, and realized that all the security guards he had secretly arranged were controlled by the people brought by the old demon.
“Boss, we are here.” A young man’s clear voice came from the corridor after a while, it was Ji Huan who came up with Abu after hearing the old demon’s voice.
“Let’s talk about what happened here today.” He let Ji Huan sit next to him, and said directly.
The power of dozens of mid to high-level demons simultaneously exerting pressure was extremely terrifying. The cold sweat on the forehead was like a waterfall, and the bar owner with iron-blue skin was probably turning more blue with regret now.
Lowering his voice, he slowly said what happened tonight——
“…Tonight was the delivery day of the Ham store, so I arranged for Ya Li and one other person to tally the goods. At that time, a customer asked for a large number of goods. Uh… just like this gentleman, so I took him to the wine cellar.”
It was a guest covered with a cloak. He was unfathomable and quite generous in his actions. The bar owner didn’t dare to offend the other party, so he brought people over directly.
“Who knew, the other party would just take a fancy to the little gray devil who was unloading the goods.”
The other party’s attendant suddenly took action, but the little grey devil dodged him. Unexpectedly, the guest became even more interested and asked his subordinates to catch him. The gray little devil was surprisingly able to handle it well. Although his body was small and his strength was not significant, he was extremely fast.
The guest then sent another person.
After probing the little gray devil, the guest made a suggestion to him: he wanted him to leave this place and work for him.
The little gray devil refused.
“… Then the guest got upset and sent someone else to catch that little devil…”
The little devil naturally resisted, but the more he resisted, the happier the guest became. Gradually, the blood splattered all over from the wounds on the little devil’s body, covering the entire wine cellar.
“…the smell was too strong, I have to ask Ya Li to wipe the blood in the wine cellar again…” As the iron-blue demon spoke, his head got lower and lower: “I couldn’t help it, that guest was too scary. The boss of the little demon agreed to terminate his contract, and in the end… they pressed the little demon to sign another work agreement, and we don’t know what happened afterwards.”
“I’m really just a businessman!” With a wail, he finally took out a pink children’s mobile phone from his arms: “This is what the little demon threw under the wine rack. At that time, those people were about to take him away, but he suddenly struggled to escape, hid under the wine rack, and was soon dragged out again.”
“After they left, I picked up this phone from there, it was blank, with no contacts or call records, presumably…”
He didn’t say anything next.
But Ji Huan could guess.
It must be that the little gray devil knew that he could not escape, so he… called to say goodbye to himself, right?
Did he think he was going to die? That’s why he called to tell his name.
In this way, he can be remembered by his friends as a demon with a name.
Ji Huan was silent.
“This is your money.” The blue-skinned bar owner took out the money that Ji Huan had given him before from his arms.
“No need, I still want to buy the wine.” Ji Huan said calmly as he waved his hands.
The bar owner finally came out while carrying seven barrels from the wine cellar. Ji Huan gave one barrel each to the old demon and Abu, and the rest he took home and gave to Grandpa.
“This is the gift Xiao Hui brought for you today.” That’s what Ji Huan said.
