Shut up, I don't want to have children with you anymore.

pat-

Rebecca pulled out a pistol and pressed it against the woman's chin.

The woman shut up awkwardly and stepped aside silently.

The other people in the porch also tacitly made way for Leon and Rebecca.

Suddenly it became less crowded.

Rebecca put away her gun, walked to Leon's side, and lowered her voice.

"We are not regular customers here. The group of people at the door are here to 'inspect the goods'. If you don't give them a heads-up, you won't be able to move an inch here."

Leon also understood the "unspoken rules" that Rebecca mentioned. There is a way of survival in the gray area.

What he didn't understand was why Victor went to work in such a corrupt and dark place after leaving the Dragon Slayer Army?

Is it self-degradation? Or is it due to some other reasons?

Although this guy is always the runner-up, he also has the bottom line and resilience of a runner-up. He will try his best in everything he does and has high demands and standards for himself.

Such a person should be out of place in this place.

It seems that I can only ask Victor clearly after finding him.

Leon and Rebecca walked across the dance floor and came to the bar.

"What would you like to drink?" the bartender came up and greeted.

"A glass of water." Leon has a low alcohol tolerance, and they didn't come here tonight to drink.

"Then I want a glass of Black Moon." Rebecca used to drink frequently, so she was very familiar with these strange names of wines.

She said her aim was better after drinking, but I don’t know if it’s true or not.

The bartender glanced at the petite Rebecca and said, "We don't sell alcohol to children."

As soon as the bartender finished speaking, Leon, who had just wanted to persuade Rebecca to switch to juice, swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

Then he quietly moved his butt to the side to avoid being splashed with blood.

If Leon's Achilles' heel is his wife and children;

Rebecca's Achilles' heel is her age.

"I'm an adult! Open your dog eyes and see clearly, I'm an adult!"

The loli girl stood on the bar stool, supporting herself on the table with both hands.

If the bartender dared to say another word, Leon had no doubt that Rebecca would pull out her gun.

Fortunately, the bartender was a man who knew what was happening. He nodded immediately and said, "Okay, okay. Black Moon, I'll be right there."

"Wait! I changed my mind. I want a glass of water, too."

"OK, two glasses of water."

Rebecca then sat back down, with her hands on her chest, looking angrily at the bartender's back, "This is why I hate all bartenders in the world."

Leon shook his head and smiled, said nothing, and began to observe the crowd.

After a moment, the lights in the bar suddenly went out, leaving only a beam of light shining on the stage.

Under that beam of light, a tall and thin man sat on a bar stool, holding a simple guitar in his arms.

He was dressed simply, his face looked a little weathered, and his hair was shoulder-length.

But as soon as he came on stage, he attracted cheers from men and women on the dance floor.

"Victor! Victor! Victor!"

"Victor, I want to hear you sing 'Riverside'!"

"We sang Riverbank yesterday, and today we're going to sing Evening Breeze!"

"..."

They shouted Victor's name and requested the songs they wanted to hear.

Leon sat at the bar, looking at his former deputy Victor across the entire dance floor.

Compared with Rebecca, Victor has changed a lot. He used to have short hair and looked much more energetic than now.

"How did he become like this?" Leon muttered.

"All artists are like this." Rebecca sipped the water in the cup with a straw.

After the people on the dance floor calmed down a little, Victor pulled off the pendant on his chest.

It was a guitar pick.

But unlike the average cheap pick, Victor's pick is a very delicate ivory white and the workmanship is more delicate.

Especially noticeable under lighting.

Gently plucking the guitar strings, Victor began to sing.

Her singing skills are pretty good, and in a bar like this, her singing level is considered very high.

I still remember that when I was in the Dragon Slayer Army, every night Victor would sing a few songs for everyone by the campfire in the camp.

Because of this, he has accumulated a lot of fans.

But still not as much as Leon.

"Always the runner-up" is like a curse, following Victor in every aspect.

No matter how hard he tried, Leon was like a mountain that he could not cross, standing in front of him.

Coincidentally, Leon learned from the conversation of the drinkers next to him that the song Victor was singing was called "Over This Mountain".

But he never thought of himself as Victor's mountain or anything like that.

In Leon's opinion, Victor is a very reliable deputy and vice-captain.

At least that's what Leon always thought before he was framed in the Silver Dragon Battle.

And now, having fallen into the vortex of the empire's conspiracy, who can escape safely?

Leon withdrew his thoughts and waited quietly for Victor to finish singing.

After all, she is a very popular resident singer, so one song certainly cannot satisfy the audience.

For the next hour, Victor held his guitar and performed many classic songs.

Some of them were sung during the Dragon Slayer Army.

Leon, who has no artistic talent, listened with great interest, and it brought back many memories of the past.

On the other hand, the girl with twin ponytails beside him was almost falling asleep after listening to the lecture.

Leon turned his head to look at her and snapped his fingers in her ear.

The drowsy Rebecca woke up instantly, "Ah! Who, who shot!"

"Wake up, go backstage to find Victor."

"Oh good!"

The two walked around the dance floor and went backstage.)

There are many rooms backstage, but fortunately, each room has the name of the bar staff.

They found Victor's room and knocked on the door.

"Tonight's performance is over. Come back tomorrow night." Victor's voice came from inside.

"Hey, big singer, now that you're so famous, you don't even want to see your old teammates?" Rebecca challenged him outside the door.

As soon as he finished speaking, he heard footsteps coming from inside.

creak-

The door opened, and a thin, weathered man stood at the door. He lowered his eyes and looked at the girl who was two heads shorter than him.

"Rebecca, why are you here?"

"Come and show your support to the big singer."

"Don't be ridiculous. You must have something to ask me, right?"

Rebecca shrugged, "It's true that there is something, but it's not my business, it's his."

As she spoke, Rebecca reached out and pulled the man behind the door out.

Victor looked up and was stunned.

Chapter 185: 187 Please turn on the audio

As for Victor, Leon only told him the purpose of his return to the empire.

As for what happened to Leon after he was captured, what his relationship was with the Silver Dragon Queen, and his speculation about the cooperative relationship between Constantine and the Empire, Leon did not mention a word.

Because Victor is different from Rebecca.

The crazy girl was incorporated into the group of the old, weak and disabled after the master conducted the first review and Leon conducted the second review, and it was finally confirmed that she was definitely not a traitor.

Then the traitor who stabbed Leon back then must be one of Victor and Martin.

The more you talk, the more mistakes you make. Leon was not so excited about meeting his old friends that he forgot the purpose of his trip.

In the room, after listening to Leon's narration, Victor and Rebecca had similar reactions.

He was surprised at first, then mentioned that he was also caught in an illusion at that time. When he came to his senses, Leon had fallen to the ground seriously injured.

"Oh, it looks like this is a large-scale group illusion." Leon said faintly.

"Well, it's a pity that I was too slow to break free from the illusion, otherwise I might have been able to save you, captain." Victor said.

Leon's eyes moved slightly, and he looked at Victor quietly.

His words are very subtle.

"Maybe I can save the captain", doesn't this imply 'I'm not a traitor'?

Interesting, Leon thought.

But Leon didn't show anything, he just responded, "It's okay, don't take it to heart, I'm fine now."

"Captain, what are you going to do next? Go find Martin?" Victor asked.

Leon raised his eyebrows slightly. He did not rush to answer Victor's question, but looked at Rebecca next to him.

The girl with twin ponytails was sitting at the table, on which was placed Victor's old guitar.

She didn't have any artistic talent, she just casually plucked the guitar strings with the ivory pick.

Well, it seems that the only person in this world who can communicate with Leon through eye contact and activate the team voice chat is Rossweisse.

Leon retracted his hesitant gaze and looked back at Victor.

"No hurry. Martin's family background is special. It's not easy for us to see him."

Although Rebecca said that Martin was always bullied by his stepmother at home, he was still the youngest son of a royal minister and he couldn't see her whenever he wanted.

Victor heard this, hesitated for a moment, and said, "It's not that difficult to see him."

"Huh? Do you have any idea?"

Victor nodded. "In two days, there will be a birthday party for Martin's stepmother. Many friends, politicians, and ministers have been invited. We can disguise ourselves and sneak in to find Martin."

Leon thought, "It's indeed a good opportunity..."

But...isn't it a bit too coincidental?

Leon had just returned to the Empire and thought it would be difficult for him to see Martin. Unexpectedly, his stepmother had her birthday at this time - it wasn't that she couldn't celebrate her birthday, it was just too coincidental at this time;

Leon did not directly express his doubt. He looked at Victor, his brain working rapidly, and finally asked,

"What is Martin's relationship with his stepmother? Ah, I just want to confirm whether Martin will definitely attend his stepmother's birthday party."
