Yu-Gi-Oh! Fourseasons

"Hey? You Dong, why haven't you arrived yet?" You Xia's voice came from the D-wheel.

You Dong replied, "A policeman chased me for a long time, so I went on the highway and fought him. I just got off the highway now."

"Then hurry up and gather everyone! We're all here!"

……

After a long time, You Dong arrived at a desolate wilderness.

Not far away, a bar stood out, and You Xia and his friends were standing at the bar's entrance.

"Is this the place?" You Dong stopped the D-wheel.

You Qiu replied, "The bar is right below the intersection of Sin City Road. But we can't go there now; we'll have to wait until tonight."

You Dong asked like a fool, "Why?" You Qiu rolled her eyes at him and didn't say anything.

Gui Hai sighed and explained, "Messages take time to travel. We were only added to the prisoner list an hour ago, how could Sin City receive the news so quickly?"

You Qiu added, "Given the speed at which news travels through Sin City, we should receive the news by tomorrow morning, barring any unforeseen circumstances. We'll spend the night here." As she spoke, she pointed to the bar behind her.

"Uh... a bar?" You Dong asked uncertainly.

You Qiu nodded, took a few masks from D Wheel, handed them to everyone, and said, "In Sin City, you must hide your identity well."

The group took the masks and put them on.

To make them easy to recognize, each one is unique.

Yu Dong's mask is purple, Yu Xia's mask is red, Yu Qiu's mask is blue, Yu Chun's mask is pink, Long Dou's mask is yellow, Gu Jun's mask is orange, and Gui Hai's mask is white.

"Let's go then." You Qiu led the way inside.

The bar was bustling with activity, everyone chatting amongst themselves, completely oblivious to You Dong and his group.

At that moment, a drunkard bumped into You Qiu.

"Are you blind?! Why did you bump into me?!" The drunkard turned around and cursed at You Qiu.

You Qiu ignored him and continued walking inside.

"I'm talking to you!" the drunkard grabbed You Qiu.

You Qiu glanced at him, then pulled out a knife with his left hand and stabbed the drunkard in the arm!

"Ahhh! Ahhh!" The drunkard grabbed the arm and fell to his knees!

You Qiu stepped forward, pulled out his knife, and kicked the drunkard away!

You Dong stepped forward and asked, "You Qiu, haven't you gone a bit too far?"

You Qiu did not answer, but simply waved the small knife in his hand.

Gu Jun walked over and explained to You Dong, "Anyone who comes here is going to enter Sin City. Once you enter Sin City, everyone will be your enemy. The more you kill now, the fewer enemies you'll have."

The group followed You Qiu up to the third floor—the third floor seemed to be reserved for VIPs and was very luxurious.

You Qiu kicked open the door to a private room—the room was also very luxurious, with a large table, a bar, and behind the bar was a large cabinet filled with bottles of liquor.

To everyone's astonishment, You Qiu stepped onto the table and stuck the knife in his hand into it!

"You're insane!" someone stood up.

You Qiu sneered and slowly removed the mask from his face.

"Ah..." The people in the private room saw You Qiu's face and rushed out of the room!

The once lively private room became completely empty in three seconds!

"Come in." You Qiu pulled the knife out of the table and casually found a place to sit down.

You Dong asked Gu Jun, who was standing next to him, "Why are those people so afraid of You Qiu?"

Gu Jun smiled wryly, "Sister You Qiu is a notorious madwoman in Sin City. She'll do anything that harms Sin City. Those people are afraid that Sister You Qiu will kill them."

You Dong muttered under his breath, "If that's the case, then it's really crazy."

The group entered the private room one after another, locked the door, and found a seat.

"It's already 5:30, I probably won't have time to go to sleep," You Xia said, glancing at her phone.

“Then let’s not sleep!” You Qiu walked around the bar, took a bottle of wine from the cabinet, and said, “Let’s have some wine to kill time.” As she spoke, she unscrewed the cap and took a big gulp.

"No, Youqiu, you're not eighteen yet, are you?" Guihai asked.

You Qiu placed the bottle on the table and smiled contemptuously: "I started drinking when I was four years old, Gu Jun started a little later, at eight."

Everyone:...

Gu Jun picked up the bottle You Qiu had drunk from, took a swig, and said, "Not being able to drink is a real problem in Sin City. For example, if someone tries to get you drunk to assassinate you or extract information, you can fight back if you have a high alcohol tolerance, but if you don't, you're done for."

You Chun kindly reminded him, "Gu Jun, You Qiu drank from that bottle of wine."

"So what?" You Qiu snatched the drink and took a sip. "In Sin City, you can't worry about all that."

Gui Hai raised an eyebrow, while the four students looked at the two with gossipy eyes.

Gu Jun's lips twitched, and he said, "Stop looking at me with those gossipy eyes. Sin City is not a place for gossip."

"Of course, if you want to use gossip to drive someone or more people to their deaths, that's a different story," You Qiu added.

Gui Hai took two bottles of wine from the cabinet, one a high-proof baijiu and the other a low-proof red wine.

"Those who don't drink should try this bottle first." Gui Hai placed the bottle of red wine in front of the four people, then poured himself a glass of baijiu.

You Qiu smiled at Gui Hai: "Teacher, you have a good alcohol tolerance. I don't even dare to drink such strong liquor."

Gui Hai laughed and said, "Teachers are always a little better than students, right?"

Although he said that, what Guihai was really thinking was, "With such a high alcohol content, I'd be dead drunk after just one glass! I should have known better than to show off!"

You Dong poured himself a glass of red wine, took a sip, and said, "It's sweet, like drinking cola. It doesn't taste as bad as I imagined."

Gui Hai, with a mischievous grin, pushed the liquor towards You Dong and said with a wicked smile, "Then you should try this."

Curious, You Dong poured himself a small cup and took a sip.

"Ptooey! What the hell?! It's so spicy!" You Dong spat out the wine in his mouth and complained.

Everyone else laughed.

This includes You Qiu and Gu Jun.

……

“Alright, it’s about time.” You Qiu stood up. “Sin City should have received the message by now. Let’s go to the top floor and find the boss; he will take us to the entrance.”

A group of people went up to the rooftop, where there seemed to be a room. A fat man was sitting on the sofa watching TV.

"I didn't expect that our first group of guests today would include two distinguished guests." The fat man turned off the TV, turned around, and smiled at everyone.

You Qiu said coldly, "Enough nonsense, take us to find the gate opener."

You Dong whispered to Gu Jun beside him, "What's wrong with the gate machine?"

Gu Jun explained, “At the entrance to Sin City, there is a dueling machine that we call the door opener. Only the person chosen by the bar owner who defeats the person accompanying the door opener can enter Sin City; otherwise, they have to come back next month.”

The fat man glanced at You Dong and the others, and finally pointed to You Xia, who was wearing a red mask, and said, "You'll do."

Afterwards, the fat man led everyone and their D-wheel to the basement of the bar.

There was a bronze gate with a bronze bull's head, a bronze horse's head, a bronze human head wearing a black hat, a bronze human head wearing a white hat, and a bronze human head holding a book also made of bronze.

"Little guy, come and give it a try. This door opener is really powerful," the fat man said to You Xia with a smile.

"I have confidence in my abilities." You Xia unfolded the Duel Disk and stared at the bronze gate.

"Duel!" x2.

"First strike is mine. My turn." A rubber tongue emerged from the mouth of the central human head holding the bronze book, reached into the leftmost bronze bull head, and pulled out four bronze plates.
