Oops, too bad.

Colin sat at the bar.

Probably only here can let him relax.

It happened too suddenly.

He asked the bartender for a small glass of spirits, and the liquid with ice cubes in it was golden and translucent, which reminded the sentinel of Evan's warning in an instant.

Prohibited before eating.

It's evening, Central District, the third hour past the usual dinner time.

No, no, fuck it, this is no longer a matter of keeping the promise.

Four days ago, at the same time, in the kitchen, the tall sentinel Evan Cage pressed him against the wall and kissed him, and that damn dexterous tongue instantly took away all his strength.

Oh hell, there was no sign of it.

Colin reacted, beat up Evan, and ran away cowardly.

Thinking about the past, the blond sentry put down his wine glass in annoyance and hugged his head.

As I said before, although he has changed his name since he came back that time, it does not mean that Evan will immediately become a special existence.He still regards him as a good brother, and hopes that this added affection can catch up with Alain.

Come on, anyway, Alein and him have been together for at least seven years, and they were almost inseparable at the Sentinel School. Colin didn't think there was anything wrong with this.

Evan's weird gaze still exists, okay he indulges, if Evan has intentional physical contact, okay he doesn't care.Because Evan is a touchy guy and will say anything that Colin can't talk back.

He hated the relationship becoming sour and wanted to live in that house with Evan for a long time.

The communicator has not been turned on for a long time. If it had been fired in the past, I asked if I had eaten and whether I was playing outside and when I would come back, nagging like an old woman.

Now there are no such caring words with a little conscience, as if they disappeared together with the fleeing Colin.

And to make matters worse, Evan didn't come to him.Colin stayed here regularly from daytime until the bar closed at night, then went to hang out on the street, stayed until it opened and then re-entered.The waiters in the bar began to see that he was wrong. If Colin didn't have a little money on him, the people here would probably drive him out as a drunken vagabond.

Colin Bruce thought of the first days of poverty.

With no money and no place to live, the door of the Bruce family has always been closed, leaving no trace of affection.

Evan Cage extended a helping hand at this time, just like lighting a weak fire in the dark.

Colin looked at the central area in the early morning. The order of the empire was strict. There were suspended trains passing by on the interlaced tracks in the air. The surroundings were very quiet. There was no one, only the light trees were silently emitting halos.

He sits alone on a park bench, the empire's "pacification" can stop the senses from spreading, and here, Evan's so-called rented house is drowned in high-rise buildings, invisible.

There are also women or men with bad tastes approaching in the bar, and Colin's handsome face plays a big role.But Colin was troubled by trivial matters, and couldn't look like a playboy who was usually good at socializing.

The people who came up rushed away again.

As for the previous female guides Huadie, they were still angry about the last time.

okay, this is in line with the original image, the down-and-out prodigal son who was kicked out of the house.

Colin gave up on himself and suddenly wanted to get really drunk.

"Well, sir..."

The bartender in front of him hesitated to speak, but Colin raised his head anxiously and hummed.

The bartender was frightened by the unfriendly eyes, he hesitated for a long time and chose to keep his mouth shut and stay away.

let's go!Let's all go!Stay away from him!

Colin picked up the glass and was about to drink it in one gulp when someone tapped him on the shoulder.

There was a pause in the hands.

And who—? !

He gritted his teeth and raised his head.

The visitor was tall and slender, and the interior of the bar was used as a foil, and the light was already dim, but the latter seemed to be slightly better in comparison, with gray hair and deep eyes that were so dark that no light could be seen——

Colin was stunned, and looked at it repeatedly to be sure.

Opening his mouth again, the joy of reunion rushed out.

"Oh my dear little angel Al-Ain!"

"God," Alline read, "Come on, Bruce."

I have to say, this title is really nostalgic.

Alain sat next to Colin.

"Oh my god, I'm not mistaken. Do the math, buddy, how long has it been since we met!" Colin hurriedly let go of the wine glass, and slapped Alain vigorously, laughing, "Oh , I really... Your appearance is too much like a surprise!"

The noisy voice of his friend filled his ears, and Alain couldn't help but sigh with emotion, as if he had caught some reality from this chaotic world, and the unhappiness with Wei Haili had been diluted a lot.

Alain: "Long time no see, Bruce."

"Hey, don't be so unfamiliar! It's been a long time since I dealt with the terrible mutated locusts last time. After hearing about you, I've been running around for the mission of the empire. The Ed family will be so proud." Colin withdrew his hand and winked. With a gossip look, "How did you get along with that powerful guide of yours?! At the beginning, I made a promise."

"Hmm..." Alain was poked in the foot, "Don't mention it."

Colin nodded, expressing his understanding: "I understand, I understand, you still can't do it, Alain."

Really can't speak, invites people to fight.

"So, Mr. Ed, the future rising star of the empire, came here to drink away his worries when he and his partner were not going well?! This is not allowed, but today I am Colin Bruce, treat me! Thank you, brother!"

Alain smiled.

"Oh, don't think I'm such a loser, it's not that far, Bruce. I just came back from a small planet, not to mention how bad it is. The environment there, the people there. I came in because I saw you here " Pointing to his eyes mysteriously, "I can't drink too much, Dunn warned me, although I don't know why. It's too late today, and we will go to the government to deliver tasks tomorrow morning."

Didn't it mean that the relationship is not good, kid!Colin complained, but he didn't seem to have seen Alin drink, and he always refused decisively to the "party" secretly held with Beton at the Sentinel School before.

In Colin's memory, Alain Aide seemed to be just a nerd who would spend a lot of time in the library, taciturn, and loved to look at everything with a deadpan expression.Now, he appeared in a bar where he would never come in even if he was beaten to death, and complained to him about the bastard mission of the empire...

The blond sentinel looked back.

The man sat casually on the swivel chair, with his long legs slung sideways leisurely, slightly sideways, and the corners of his mouth curled up sharply.His strong arms propped up on the bar counter to pillow his head, his eyes are full of reflections.

Alain seems to have grown rapidly during the time he was separated from him, and is no longer a melancholy teenager who is tortured by mania at home.The not-so-broad shoulders seem to be able to support those who want to rely on them.

Colin was really happy for this quiet change.

Alain: "What about you, Bruce, it's not the usual style to drink alone in a bar. What about those female guides around you?"

"Hey, are you making fun of me like that?! Compared to you, I'm a total failure." The man shook his head exaggeratedly, "I haven't met a guide with 100% compatibility so far."

Alain: "Are you still pursuing this? Is it okay to not be an exact match? If there is someone who is fancy and comfortable to stay with, you should continue to persist?"

"That... of course, this is my driving force in life."

Colin said with a guilty conscience, and unconsciously glanced at the communicator that was always on the side from the beginning.

Indeed, after graduation, let alone 100%, even guides who reached 85% of the empire's compatibility standard did not appear by their side.It was accidental to be stuck by a "scary" guy.

Could it be that God is punishing him for his usual fickleness? !

This is really frustrating.

Alain: "You are looking at the communicator, waiting for someone to call? Bruce, has something happened to you? If possible... I am willing to help you."

Colin embarrassed: "No one will call me, I'm not used to you becoming so enthusiastic, little angel Alain. I'm fine, really, and I've lived a life of doing whatever I like. You know, I'm fine I have great ambitions, the mission of the empire is too dangerous, and I still want to save my life and marry a guide as my wife."

Alain was suspicious: "Are you sure? At home, Mr. Bruce will definitely be angry when he sees you like this."

Colin: "I have a younger brother, do you remember, he is much more useful than me. Let me help you order something, the bar is not just spirits, ask the bartender to mix you a glass of strange juice, guaranteed to impress you profound."

Alain wanted to say more, but his friend's attitude was very firm from the side.

"Okay." The young sentinel handed it to Colin with a headache.

The juice was served quickly, mixed in various colors, and Alain couldn't accept it for a while.

Another soft tune was played in the bar, the usual feature of the Empire, and Colin quickly glanced at the wall clock on the wall.

Alain noticed that he withdrew his reunion expression, and there was a bit of formulaic indifference in his words.

"Bruce," he said, "Actually, I came to the bar to see you for something else... I hope you will listen to my request."
