Blood Hourglass

Chapter 42: outsiders

Views:

In the early morning night, two figures, one behind the other, flew at lightning speed through those empty long streets that had long been devoid of human sounds, and jumped over those quiet houses that had long since lost their lights.

"Where are we going?" After coming out of the secret party headquarters, Lisa only said three words, "Let's go!" and then left quickly, while Bourne on the side had not figured out what was going on. Involuntarily, he followed Lisa and rushed forward. But now that Bourne was looking at the east that was about to get brighter, he had to move his legs quickly out of worry and asked.

"Go celebrate! Hahaha!" Lisa replied with a happy laugh.

Hearing Lisa's answer, Bourne had nothing to say. As for why Lisa is so happy now, no one knows it better than Bourne. Not only did she meet the most important person in her heart, but she was also allowed to enter and exit the secret party headquarters at any time in the future. For an outsider, This is a great honor.

"It's almost dawn now, can't we celebrate again tomorrow!" Bourne complained softly.

His voice was so soft, and it was still downwind, not to mention that Lisa no longer had the space in her heart to pay attention to this. Of course, Bourne didn't want Lisa to hear it. Firstly, he was afraid of making her unhappy, and secondly, he was afraid that Lisa would make fun of his jealousy.

"What did you say?" Lisa heard nothing.

"It's nothing! I mean, where can we go to celebrate now! Ordinary places have been closed a long time ago." Bourne suddenly felt very lost and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "She really didn't hear it! It seems that she really only has the only thing in her heart. Luvian alone will never take me to heart."

"We're here, you'll know, walk faster!" Lisa deliberately didn't say anything, and then slightly accelerated her pace, which made Bourne, who had already exhausted all his efforts, even more exhausted, but the two The distance between people is still getting farther and farther.

"Here we are, why didn't you think of that!" Just when Bourne was about to lose sight of Lisa, Lisa suddenly stopped on the side of the road and said.

"Here, how could it be here? This place has been closed a long time ago. What's the use of us coming here?" Bourne finally came to Lisa's side in three steps and said breathlessly.

"You are wrong. In fact, at this time, you are not allowed to go out, and that is only for you. For me, this is my home. I can come whenever I like. If I If you're not afraid, you can come during the day!" Lisa held her right elbow with her left hand and her chin with her right hand, smiling at the bloody five characters on the sign.

"Oh! By the way, you said you are the shop owner's daughter, how could I forget this!" Bourne patted his head with his hand and suddenly realized.

"Let's go in now!" Lisa instructed, walked up, knocked on the door, and said, "I'm Lisa, open the door!" But Bourne was now standing next to her with confidence and waiting.

"Squeak! Squeak!" The door opened really quickly, and a young lady dressed as a service person stood inside the door.

"How come I've never seen you before, who are you?" Lisa stood curiously and asked.

"Miss, welcome, I am the new night server, just call me night." She was dressed in black clothes and a black skirt, and replied with a flower-like smile on her face.

"How come I haven't been here for a few days and there is a new waiter! I haven't seen a new waiter in a hundred years before!" Lisa sighed and walked in, and Bourne hurriedly followed in, fearing that if he took a step too late, he would be killed. It will be miserable if you are locked out by someone and exposed to the sun.

When Lisa and Bourne entered the restaurant, the waiter closed the door again, seemingly not wanting anyone to come in.

"Holy feast, two cups of "life"! (It is the name of a drink here, and the name is also extremely realistic.)" As soon as Lisa entered the restaurant, she walked towards the table that could be said to belong to her, and at the same time said The night serviceman who was following him said.

"I'm so sorry, miss, we didn't know you would come today, so... we let someone else sit at that table. Can you please choose another seat?" the waiter said apologetically.

"Who would know about this table!" Lisa sighed. After all, this is a table that is never open to the public, except during the day. Usually at night, except for Lisa herself, no one will know its existence. What's more, the waiter has also been warned not to recommend it to outsiders. its.

"We were also surprised. He took the initiative to sit at the Holy Banquet. We were also very embarrassed at first. Since the lady has not been here in the past few days, we just wanted him to sit down. Unexpectedly, the lady would come today. Come on, I'm really... I'm really sorry, it's all our fault." The night waiter bowed his head and apologized.

"How many people?" Lisa asked simply. Now she was more interested in people who knew about the Holy Feast.

"Just one person." Ye replied hurriedly.

"It's okay, I'll go and see for myself, "Life", please take it to the holy banquet!" Lisa ordered, and then walked to the dark corner, which is the favorite place for vampires. .

When Lisa and the others walked to the table, they saw a young boy in his twenties wearing casual casual clothes, sitting there very elegantly, drinking "life" from the cup. Describing him in detail, he has neat short black hair, blood-red eyes, and a fair complexion, which sets off his hair color. With such a perfect face, he also wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. It seems that he is He's polite and very likable.

"Is there anyone sitting here?" Lisa walked up and asked naturally. She wasn't angry at all because the other party took her table.

"No, it's just me!" He spoke in a very easy-going manner, but his tone was still majestic, giving people a sense of solemn kindness honed by long-standing high positions.

"I come here often, but I never seem to have seen you!" Lisa chatted up naturally after Lisa and Bourne sat down.

"This is my first time here!" He replied still so easy-going.

"But people who come here for the first time don't know how to order this table!" Lisa said with a meaningful smile.

"That's because I heard from my friends a long time ago that there is a mysterious table in this vampire restaurant. It seems to have a name. I have never seen it before. This time I have a rare opportunity, so I must come and see this extraordinary table. It's an ordinary table. Let me ask for its name. And just now I finally got the waitress's permission to sit here." Not only did he answer Lisa's question seriously, but he also said it so detailed.

"It turned out to be an outsider!" Bourne sighed.

"Then have you found out its name?" Because according to regulations, her father placed this table in the restaurant specially for her, so no one else except the waiter in the restaurant would know its name, and my father He also issued an order that in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, the waiters were not allowed to tell any guest about its existence and name. It should have been impossible for outsiders to know of its existence, but after thousands of years passed, its existence spread to the outside world unknowingly.

"No, but it seems that the lady knows a lot about it. Could you please tell me a little bit about it?" Upon hearing this, you knew that he was a smart and direct person.

"It seems that his glasses are not for nothing!" Bourne sighed in his heart with a sense of ridicule, that's right! What kind of glasses does a vampire wear? Apart from showing that you are a literate person, is there any other meaning

"Of course I know it very well, because it is mine!" Lisa replied proudly.

"Miss, please use it!" At this time, a waiter in red clothes and red trousers brought two cups of "Life", placed them in front of Lisa and Bourne, and then planned to leave.

"Wait a minute!" Lisa called her.

"Do you have any other instructions, Miss?" She immediately stopped and stood aside respectfully and asked.

"The person who opened the door for me just now is called the Night Server, so he is wearing black clothes, and you are dressed in blood red, so you can't be called the Blood Server!" Lisa guessed with a smile.

"Miss, you are so smart. What you said is absolutely correct!" The blood server admitted.

"Are you all new here?" Lisa had always been curious about this, so she asked.

"Yes!" she replied.

"What about the original waiters?" Lisa then asked.

"They only work the day shift now, and we were specially called to work the night shift." She answered in detail.

"Are you all vampires?" Although Lisa had already noticed this as soon as she came in, she still wanted to confirm.

"Yes, we all are," she replied with a nod.

"But why do you have to hire a vampire to be the night waiter? Haven't humans always done a good job in the past? Did something happen recently?" Although Lisa rarely gets along with her father, she still knows very well that he is a lover. A simple person, if he could only use one waiter, he would not call two. What's more, he is divided into day shift and night shift. There must be some troublesome thing that forced him to do this.

"Although I'm not sure, I heard that a human waiter was bitten to death by a customer not long ago!" she replied.

"Oh! So that's it. It's okay, go and do your work!" Lisa replied with a smile. However, she was extremely sad in her heart. If she had been there the night of the accident, she would not have let that living life disappear in such a pitiful and painful way.

"No wonder! I just heard her calling her "Miss". It is clear that when they receive customers, regardless of gender, they only call them "guests", but when they come to your place, they treat you specially. At first, I thought it was because you were more beautiful. !” He sighed casually.

"Thank you for the compliment, hahaha!" Lisa suddenly laughed again, startling Bourne beside her. The strange thing is that the stranger opposite didn't show any surprise at all, as if he had known that she would be so gloomy. of laughter.

"Then as a thank you, I'll tell you the name of this table," Lisa suddenly smiled like a lady and pointed to the table, "It's called the Holy Feast!"

"Oh! So that's it!" He sighed.

"Have you heard of it before?" Lisa asked loudly with a serious look on her face when she saw what he said.

"That's right! But after thousands of years, I have somewhat forgotten it." He seemed to be thinking about something while answering very casually.

"I've heard of it!" Lisa suddenly had a terrible and incredible idea.

"I've seen it before, but I've never observed it carefully at that time, so apart from it looking a little familiar now, if you don't tell me its name, I don't think no matter how much I think about it, I won't know that it is that A table called the Holy Banquet." He said carefully and calmly, as if he didn't take seeing the Holy Banquet seriously at all, and he was even more unaware that the expression on Lisa's face was changing erratically.

"So you've lived a thousand years?" Bourne suddenly asked in surprise. Because from his perspective, the young man in front of him, even if he was a vampire, should be a newborn baby, so he never expected that he would see the Holy Banquet of a thousand years ago.

"Isn't it the same?" He asked with that faint smile again.

"It doesn't look like it, at least it doesn't look like it at all to me." Bourne replied honestly.

"From what you said, it seems like I've seen him many times?" Lisa interrupted their conversation and asked urgently, as if she was eager to know something.

"Yeah, I've seen it so many times that I can't even remember it. I just came and went in a hurry every time, so I never observed it carefully. Now it seems that it is really a good table. These patterns are quite interesting!" He gently touched the patterns on the table and answered in detail.

"What is your relationship with that cult?" Lisa became more and more serious. It was more like interrogating the suspect than asking him.

"Relationship, it doesn't seem to matter, I just go there sometimes!" He spoke so relaxed and casually, but this tone made Lisa feel inexplicably scared. And the everlasting smile on his face always gives people a sense of sincerity that cannot be doubted.

"Guests! It's almost dawn. Those who haven't left yet, please leave quickly!" At this time, a waiter's voice suddenly reminded.

"I'm sorry, it seems I have to leave first. It's rare to meet interesting people here. I originally wanted to chat for a while, but the weather is not kind, so we can only meet again later!" He put down the cup in his hand, stood up and said goodbye.

"Originally, I thought maybe we could talk more about the past, but now I have no choice but to see you later." Lisa had no choice but to say helplessly. And just when she said the last word, he disappeared in a flash, as if he had never been here before.

"Lisa, it seems that you are very interested in him?" Bourne asked speculatively, watching Lisa staring blankly at the empty seat.

"Interested? Maybe!" Lisa said perfunctorily with a look of helplessness. Her eyes continued to stare there, but it didn't seem like she was looking at that seat.

"Who is that stranger?" Bourne sighed curiously.

"By the way, we didn't even ask what his name was!" Lisa suddenly came back to her senses and said to Bourne.

"He didn't ask us what our names are! How strange." Bourne suddenly thought that when strangers meet, the first thing they would ask is how to call them, but today they chatted for so long without even the most basic things. Ask, it’s really strange. (To be continued)
