The Pirate's Cute Cat Tavern

The sun is high and the sea breeze is gentle.

Walk 500 meters along the path of the simple pier and you will see a tavern where people can rest and drink to quench their thirst.

There is a cute plaque in the shape of a cute cat hanging on the small door of the tavern.

On the upper left corner of the plaque is a cute little creature extending its paws to say hello. There are four eye-catching words on the plaque.

Cute Cat Tavern!

It stands to reason that this strange setting and warm little style from a distance should be able to attract many customers.

But this store has always been empty because... the items inside are too expensive and the owner Locke is too shady!

This store only sells one kind of wine - wine. According to the black-hearted store manager Locke, this thing is called vigorous wine, and each glass costs [-] Baileys!

This price is too expensive for the fishermen in this small village who make a living by fishing.

Therefore, the shop has been open for five days, but it has only sold seven glasses of wine and only one repeat customer.

Pushing open the half-person-high double shutter doors, everything in this small tavern can be seen at a glance.

There are four small round tables on the brown floor, and there are four small solid wood benches next to each table.

There is a large blind on the wall on the left side facing the sea. The sunlight is cut into strips and falls into the house, and the sea breeze is divided into streams and flows into the room.

The innermost part of the pub is a simple and smooth solid wood bar with several wooden high stools beside the bar.

Behind the bar stood a young man with short black hair and a warm smile on his face. The young man was handsome, wearing a white T-shirt, black trousers, and a yellow apron embroidered with cute cat patterns. He was Locke, the owner of the tavern.

There was a slovenly old man sitting in front of the bar. He was wearing large colorful pants and a wrinkled shirt. With an unshaven beard, he was the only repeat customer of this store.

His name is Tian Wei, he is the only cultural person in the village and a cartoonist. According to him, the wine here can provide him with unlimited vitality and strength.

That's why he endured being cheated and visited every day. Of course, this could also be an excuse for the drunkard and bourgeois cartoonist to be greedy.

Oh, the green algae-headed swordsman observed everything just after entering the door, but also ignored one... hotel employee?

That's right, it should be an employee, because this employee is lying on the table at the moment, wiping the table with a rag. While wiping the table, his eyes are staring unblinkingly at the bar. The cup in front of Tao has just been served. of wine.

It looks like an ordinary glass of wine from a distance. The purple-red liquid in the transparent glass rotates with the shaking of the tail. There is nothing strange about it, but it seems to have fatal magic power, attracting the whole body. A black, muscular cat with slender limbs!

That's right, the only employee in this tavern is this extremely handsome black cat. No wonder this place is called the Cute Cat Tavern.

Under the scorching sun, the green algae-headed swordsman was sweating on his forehead. When he saw this strange scene, a look of interest flashed in his eyes.

"Ah, welcome to the Cute Cat Tavern! Guests, please come in and take a seat..." Locke, the handsome and sunny store manager, greeted warmly.

Driven by curiosity, Zoro walked in and sat on the table where the black cat was wiping. He reached out and wanted to touch this smart and peculiar cat.

result……

Whoosh!

Maoru turned into a black shadow and left the table in an instant. It had jumped onto the bar, raised its body high with its forelimbs, and turned back to look down and stare at Sauron coldly.

His eyes were sharp, aloof, and full of momentum, completely losing the lustful look he had just staring at the wine.

Under the store manager's threatening gaze, the black cat calmed down his momentum, jumped into the bar obediently, and disappeared from Zoro's eyes.

Tian Wei raised his head that had been lying on the rim of the cup and inhaled the aroma of the wine, and laughed heartily: "Sure enough, Hei Feng is always so aloof! Don't worry about the new guy, this cat is just like that, it doesn't do anything except wine. He will look good on anyone, including the owner of this tavern!"

Zoro shrugged nonchalantly, leaned the white-sheath sword against the wall, and asked casually: "What is there to drink here?"

"For the time being, we only have strong wine! Each glass costs [-] Baileys. Since we are a small business, we pay first and then the goods!"

Store Manager Locke was smiling brightly and handsomely, even though his asking price was so deceptive and unreasonable.

Because his curiosity was aroused before, even though the price was very expensive, Zoro was stunned for a moment and still said: "Okay, have a drink! Here, money..."

He is a bounty hunter, and this price is not a burden to him, so he just wants to satisfy his curiosity.

As a swordsman, he was also keen to capture all the meaning of the store manager's words. This tavern only had one kind of product for the time being, so he didn't ask much about others.

The store manager moved quickly. He simply took a glass of purple-red wine from the wine box behind the bar, and then delivered it steadily to Zoro's table, while gently taking away the money. , the whole process is nothing strange at all.

Zoro picked up the goblet and stared at the wine through the glass for a long time. He didn't see any difference between this and the wine he usually drank.

Helpless, he could only shrug, raised his glass and drank a big sip. He felt that the rumors might be true. This was a weird and deceptive tavern. He was going to finish the glass of wine in a hurry and leave. It was not like this place was nearby. There are no other pubs.

"Hmm..." Tian Wei, who was sitting over there, was immediately anxious when he saw Zoro's actions, but because he had wine in his mouth, he was anxious for a long time before he said anything: "You... What a waste of you! How can you eat such delicious food like this?"

"You have to be like me, drink slowly and take small sips, so you won't regret it for a while! By the way, let me tell you for this cheating store manager, this pub only supplies one glass of wine to each guest every day! It’s gone after you drink it...even if you are willing to pay a big price!”

After saying that, Tianao carefully drank a sip of red wine again, with a look of enjoyment on his face again.

The act of drinking was interrupted by Tao Oo's shouting. Zoro's mouth was filled with wine. Just when he felt disdain for Tao Oo's words, he was even ready to swallow the drink and say, "This wine is just mediocre." I didn't drink anything special at all.

A heart-breaking explosive force burst out from the wine. This force was extremely penetrating and swept through Sauron's body instantly, eliminating the fatigue he had suffered from many days of running and half a day's journey. exhausted……

After the surge of power, the taste of wine in his mouth slowly spread. The taste was so mellow and intoxicating. The taste poured into Zoro's nasal cavity, impacted his taste buds, and infected his spirit. He widened his eyes with the same intoxication.

Zoro's mouth was round and round. He stared at the smiling store manager and wanted to say, 'This wine is really extraordinary', but he couldn't bear to swallow the wine in his mouth because the taste of the wine was still dissipating. He took such a big gulp. Drinking is indeed a waste of natural resources!
