The Greatest

Such an inexplicable request, such an inexplicable person.

But Eddie actually went to that bar that day, and he chose to be with this inexplicable person in the end, and they stayed together for nine years.

incredible.

I really don't know what I was thinking at the beginning.

And tonight, it was the robber who had been working outside for a week, and suddenly sent a text message asking him to come to this bar.But the guy didn't explain what he wanted him to do, and now he doesn't even show up.

baffling.

With a sigh, Eddie finally put down the wine glass in his hand.

At this moment, Oss suddenly waved in one direction of the crowd, calling for someone to come over.

Not knowing what to expect, Eddie also turned around.But he only saw a pair of girls approaching arm in arm.

They were tall and short, the tall one had short black hair, the other shoulder-length dyed blond hair, and the ends of her hair were still distinctly brown.

The brunette is wearing a red jacket, while the blonde is wearing a pink dress.

"Hey, you're finally here." Oss warmly greeted them, and took the two of them to sit next to Eddie.

"Let me introduce our lovely couple on honeymoon, hehe."

"Hi, Ross Tonk." The black-haired girl signed up directly and shook hands with Eddie.

The girl next to her smiled shyly, glanced at Ross before speaking to Eddie.

"Angelina."

The two sat down with their hands on the table, and the wedding rings on their hands really caught the eye.

The girl named Rose is very familiar. After an hour of chatting, she will almost become a "chat friend" with Eddie. Angelina just listens quietly, and occasionally speaks a few words with a smile, or talks to Ao Di on the side. Speak up.

"Are you planning to come here to play?"

Eddie was very interested in this funny girl, whom he had learned from the conversation just now, was a photographer.This occupation is quite close to his.

Rose's cheeks began to flush as he drank a glass of cocktail.She was so hot that she rolled up the sleeves of her jacket, but she refused to take it off.After brewing for a while, he said.

"Originally, this state was not included in our honeymoon plan, but when we passed by, we suddenly remembered that we met here. So we stayed here specially. I happened to meet Oss again, at the gas station."

"You guys met here." Eddie was surprised to hear that.

This topic made Angelina suddenly excited, she said with a smile.

"We all came here for the parade, but I wasn't really a part of it back then, I had a boyfriend."

When it comes to travel|walking, Eddie can't help but nod with emotion.

Angelina shook Rose's hand and continued.

"At that time, no one in my family understood my support, and my boyfriend still complained that I was sick. But I just thought that it was meaningful to us, so I ran away from home and drove away with the big team. come over."

"And then I met her, my red rose."

Hearing this, Ross couldn't help but smiled and leaned forward, giving his excited little girlfriend a short but sweet kiss.

Oss raised his eyebrows and whistled mischievously.

Looking at the two girls and the wedding rings on their hands, Eddie didn't know whether he was happy or worried and sad.Or rather, envy.

"However, I have snatched her, the little pink. Her family probably wants to beat me up to now."

"Wow, what are you doing forcibly?" Oss laughed wickedly, leaning over to look at Rose as if he were a prisoner.

Ross mercilessly 'slapped' the wretched-looking Oss away with one hand, and then put his arms around his 'little pink' shoulders.

"I'm a gentleman, even more so than some men. And at first I just wanted to be ordinary friends with her, and her family was very polite to me."

"But they knew that I was the same queen, and their attitude changed a lot. I also wisely stopped going to their house. Later, after Angelina and I made our relationship clear, they... you know."

Angelina showed a rare sly smile, and hooked Rose's hand.

"Since I can go out to participate in the parade, then I can go out to marry you and travel."

Ross smiled helplessly and shook his head.

"Yeah, you are a super little pink, how could I abduct you. I should be abducted by you voluntarily, and I have to wear the jacket you bought."

Angelina pursed her lips and hummed pretending to be serious.

"How can my red rose not be red? Also, this is a bet you lost, and I would like to accept the bet, or we will sleep in separate rooms at night."

The two were flirting hotly, and Oss couldn't stand it anymore, so he interrupted directly.

"Hey, hey, hey! Be careful, both of you, there is a lone wild wolf here, I'll howl here later, believe it or not."

The two girls looked at each other, turned their heads and laughed in unison.

"I'm afraid it's not a lame old wolf. That's why no one wants it."

Eddie, who was drinking quietly at the side, laughed directly, while Oss was so sad and angry that he really wailed.

"Who, who said I can't do it anymore, my life is good!! Right! Eddie!"

Eddie just shrugged his friend's dilemma.

"How would I know. Ask me what I do."

Hearing what he said, the two girls laughed even more arrogantly.Oss had such a big reaction before, and now he has a sense of déjà vu that is hard to explain.

After calming down, Oss cleared his throat and prepared to show his good work with a good self-blowing "dirty paragraph".

He picked up an unopened bottle of white wine and pointed at the bottle.

"Look, do you know what it looks like when a bullet pierces a wine bottle? Let me tell you, the last time I—"

Before Oss could finish speaking, the wine bottle he was holding burst open in front of their eyes.

No, no, the wine bottle didn't burst by itself, but a bullet actually went through the bottle, and even pierced Oss' arm.

The bartender on one side was shot in the neck because he couldn't dodge, and immediately fell down in front of Eddie.

Ross quickly pulled Angelina past, and they squatted down and hid behind a row of chairs, while Eddie pulled the injured Oss around behind the bar.

The crowd on the dance floor dispersed and fled in an instant, but the sound of machine guns never stopped.

Accompanied by the music is no longer people's high spirits singing along, but their terrified shouts and ruthless shooting.

"What the fuck is going on?!"

Oss looked at his bleeding arm and listened to the sound of shooting, his face turned paler than usual.

Several wine bottles on the table above their heads had exploded, and all the wine and debris splashed on them.

Eddie poked his head, but he really didn't dare to see what was going on.He just tore off a white square to stop the bleeding for Osza.

"See if we can get around the back."

Eddie could hear himself panting heavily as he spoke.Obviously he hasn't done anything yet, just hiding here.

Hiding here in fear.

"Okay, okay." Oss couldn't speak fluently.

The gunfire stopped, but the chaotic and noisy shouting continued.A man could be vaguely heard roaring loudly.

From the bar, Eddie could see two access openings, one to the back door and staff lounge, and one to the bathroom, kitchen, and warehouse.

Taking two deep breaths, Eddie raised his body several times and finally leaned out of the bar.

In front of him was a broken wine bottle that was tilted to and fro, and the cold liquid spread on the table and flowed into his clothes along his hands.But he didn't dare to act rashly, he just hid there and watched vigilantly.

Several colored lights in the bar were knocked out, only the revolving ball light was still shining tenaciously.

But he still saw many people fallen nearby, some of them were still moving, some of them looked like corpses on the ground.

Maybe they were corpses already.

The gate should still be open, but no one can go through now, because the murderer, the massacre is standing there with a gun.He was pointing at a group of people to retreat inside.His voice was loud, and his cold tone made people shudder.

Just looking at the man, Eddie couldn't help but shrink back.

He is really afraid.Because maybe in the next second, he will be a corpse lying on the ground.

He has a vague feeling about death. He has lived so long, read so many books, and seen so many things, but he has never thought about his own death.He greets the death of an acquaintance with sadness, bemoaning the brevity and insignificance of human life.

But he was sure that he didn't want to die in such pain, even if it might be a momentary process.

The access to the kitchen, though not to the back door, was very close to them.It would be great if you can find a place to hide after entering, or find a way out.

Made up his mind, Eddie gestured towards Oss.

Oss's lips were already pale, because his reaction to the pain was not as fast as before.But he still got up slowly with Eddie's support, ready to quickly rush to the entrance of the passage later.

Then Eddie poked his head again, looking around cautiously.But he couldn't find Rose and Angelina, but he was sure they were all right now.

The two of them were moving to the exit on the other side of the bar when they suddenly heard the man yelling, and could vaguely hear words like 'bitch', 'explosion', and 'death'.

There was another burst of gunfire, but this time it was no longer the 'chug-chug' sound, but a slightly longer interval of bang bang.

This should be a change of gun, but also a change of direction.

good chance!

Without even thinking about it, Eddie dragged Oss out, almost rolling and crawling.He also saw many people like them running out of the corner, also in the same direction as them.

Not caring about anything else, Eddie could only bet on Oss not to look back.

He heard another shot, very close to them.Before entering the door, Eddie still couldn't help but glance back.

He saw the massacre standing more than ten meters away, walking towards them with a pistol in his hand and pulling the trigger.

He also saw that someone was shot in the ear and turned into a horrible and disgusting appearance. Some people pushed people indiscriminately while fleeing, and squeezed others back on purpose.Some people leaned against the wall and trembled, while others scurry about like headless chickens.

In the end, he watched the person coming in from behind close the passage door.And through the small window on the door, they could clearly see how the person who was slapping the glass outside was shot in the head several times, and blood and brains splashed all over the door.

Eddie turned around subconsciously, covering his mouth to prevent himself from spitting out.

After retching for a while, he hurriedly took Oss inside, and those people had already blocked the door.It was only a matter of time before the massacre could come in.

After all, people still have firearms in their hands, and even destructive weapons such as bombs.

A group of people were scurrying in the passage, no matter how spacious it was, it became narrow and depressing.And because Oss was injured, Eddie could only help him to walk slowly.Maybe it was because he ran too intensely just now, but now Oss' hands started to bleed again.

The two stopped outside the storage room, and the others ran to the kitchen in front, and seemed to be still smashing the glass.

"Oss, can you still hold on?" Eddie looked at the distance, a little worried about the injured friend beside him.

Oss didn't have the energy to answer, his eyelids were also fighting, and he looked drowsy.

It can't go on like this.

Anxious and worried, Eddie finally helped Oss into the storage room.He made people hide in small corners and blocked them with various things.

"You hold on here for a while, Oss, hold on, don't fall asleep! Oss?!"

When he saw that someone was about to close his eyes, he immediately patted the other person's cheek.

This is still somewhat effective, and Oss's eyes widened a lot.Look at him and nod.

Putting the big cardboard box in front of the people again, Eddie tiptoed to the door of the storage room.He aimed at the blocked passage, and walked out quickly after confirming that nothing happened.

His nervousness now is probably comparable to that of going to a bar for an appointment at that time.

It was amazing that at this moment he could actually recall the scene of going to get his notes that night.
