Chapter 209: A Taste of Old Blood!

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Still, the following situation made Feng Luo a little confused. First, under Feng Luo’s deliberate observation, he noticed that the alcohol ordered by Big Pineapple was very hasty, seemingly unlike the “contact signal.” And the beautiful NPC lady who had led him in did not have an unusual reaction, either. Furthermore, once he had received his alcohol, Big Pineapple did not drink at all but instead started to look left and right, his eyes darting around suspiciously.

Something fishy going on?

Feng Luo made a certain speculation, but his face remained unchanged as he drank at his seat. After that, the field of view of Big Pineapple looking around with his glass raised in his hand directly landed on Feng Luo, who was sitting alone in a corner near the back. He stared for a while!

No way! This guy!

Feng Luo’s eyebrows twitched uncontrollably, becoming even more shocked inside. Because after looking at him for a while, Big Pineapple actually stood up straight, left his own position, and walked over in Feng Luo’s direction.

“F*ck, I can even recognize you like that! I’m so great!”

This guy! Could his role have some kind of rare skill that can see through disguises?

For a moment, Feng Luo was certain that Big Pineapple had been “pretending to be a pig to prey on a tiger,” but in this sort of situation, his self-preservation reminded him that he had to continue to up his acting game – even if he was seen through by Big Pineapple, he had to still continue to act as an NPC.

After all, he was still uncertain if there were any more opponents with similarly brilliant acting skills hiding among the NPCs surrounding him!

“Hey, big brother! Treat you to a drink?”

Once Big Pineapple had walked over, he placed his own glass in front of Feng Luo with a smile, then turned his head to look left and right once more as if to check if anyone was watching him.

“Mm… Atlantis, added with a bit of Regal. Iced soda should be used. Not a bad taste!”

Feng Luo put his nose to it and smelled it, distinguishing it with his eyes as if enjoying it. Then he opened his eyes and secretly turned his eyeballs twice toward Big Pineapple as a signal. The acting performance he had just done was the look of a brilliant NPC alcohol-taster, maintaining his demeanor.

Of course, even for a brilliant alcohol-taster, it would still be very difficult to truly tell the composition of a cocktail just by its smell. But since he had already heard what alcohol Big Pineapple had ordered, this pretentiousness could still be acted out!

However, Big Pineapple looked as if he had not seen his signal at all. He hazarded a glance from his left to his right, then sneakily moved closer and said some words to him.

These words nearly made Feng Luo vomit blood!

“Well, big brother… I’d like to ask. This place. Does it provide that kind of service…? Um, you know… How could I…?”

Big Pineapple looked left and right again and realized that no one had noticed him. He spoke quietly to Feng Luo with a sneaky expression.

“Pfft!” Feng Luo spit the cocktail straight out from his mouth!

“What the f*ck?!” Big Pineapple exclaimed as some of Feng Luo’s alcohol hit him. “Hey, big brother, no need for such a huge reaction right. I just asked one question… F*ck, you’ve choked on your alcohol. Was it really that funny?”

Cough, cough…

Feng Luo really had choked on his drink and was now coughing continuously. He was even more bitter on the inside.

I’m beaten! This guy… actually is a real pig!

Feng Luo now understood that the reason Big Pineapple had walked over was not at all as he had been expecting. Rather than approaching because he had seen through Feng Luo’s disguise, it had been to ask him how he could get “that kind of service” here.

No wonder his actions before had been so wretched—and so cautious. His true reason was his embarrassment, not a high degree of vigilance of anything like that!

After getting to know Big Pineapple for a period of time, Feng Luo had actually seen through this guy. Even though he typically acted as if his tongue was slick, he spoke clumsily. He was actually one of those lustful people but who had no real balls; in reality, he might have been a nerd who had not even touched a woman’s body before! Otherwise, he wouldn’t have come to such a place in-game. Plus, he’d deliberately picked a bar that looked deserted and, moreover, had specifically approached him as he sat alone to the side.

F*ck. I actually got scared of this guy just now…

Feng Luo looked closely at Big Pineapple’s eyes and realized that he did not appear to have seen through him. His dark-skinned face only reddened. Clearly, he felt awkward due to Feng Luo. Thus, he was speechless.

F*ck. I have to find a way to bounce back from this situation. Otherwise, there’s really no place for my reputation!

Feng Luo stared at him, secretly thinking with determination.

But his plans could not keep up with change. Just then, the beautiful NPC lady in the light-yellow kimono who had previously led him in suddenly entered from outside. She walked to his tableside and bowed slightly to him.

“Sir, Miss Haruko calls for you.”

“Huh?”

Feng Luo took a look at the time on his terminal, knowing that it ought to be time to set off for his Hidden Mission.

“Sigh. Count yourself lucky.”

Turning to look behind at Big Pineapple—whose eyes slid to stare at the snow-white neck of the beautiful NPC exposed by her silk collar as she bent her head to bow—Feng Luo knew that this guy was lucky that today, he had no time to “take revenge.”

“Well then, could I trouble you to wait a moment for me to say something to my friend?” Feng Luo said, smiling to the beautiful NPC lady.

“Of course, sir!”

The beautiful NPC bent down to bow once more, then took a few steps backward.

“Well, big brother, are must be kidding. This bar is different from those lowly places around, this is a high-class region!” Feng Luo imitated Big Pineapple, looking left and right, then moved closer to Big Pineapple as he said softly, “As a high-class region, the people who come here are not as desperate as you. Didn’t you see how serene the performance on stage was? With its ambient music? How could you think of those vulgar things at this time?! But seeing as you treated me to a drink, I shall share a secret which only frequent customers know.

“You’d only have to spend 30,000 credits here tonight, then wait until 12 midnight. Then you’d be able to attend a big exclusive party. You definitely haven’t experienced that kind of party… You can’t tell anyone else about this!”

Feng Luo had “sincerity” written on his face as he spoke softly in Big Pineapple’s ear.

“Really?!” Big Pineapple’s dark-skinned face flushed. Delight flashed in his eyes.

“Mmm. Definitely true! Don’t worry, brother. Just because of this glass from you, I surely would not bluff you!”

Big Pineapple definitely had not seen that Feng Luo’s eyes and mouth were smirking a little.

“Remember, don’t speak to anyone else again and don’t ask anymore, either. Just sit at your place and spend at will… If not, other people are likely to laugh at you. Not everyone is as helpful as I am…”

“Oh, understood. Thanks a lot, big brother!”

Big Pineapple was grateful as he watched Feng Luo leave with the beautiful NPC lady in light-yellow kimono.

“Miss Haruko, Mister Kofuji is here.”

“Please come in!”

On the second floor of Night’s Charm Bar, the panel of a rustic wooden sliding door was gradually pushed open.

An NPC woman in a snow-white silk kimono patched with red sakura and black hair let down like a waterfall was kneeling on the floor, quietly boiling a kettle of tea.
