[Tutor] A boy jumped over the wall

Chris and Squalo have a cold war.

This is something everyone in Balian knows.

Since that day, Chris, who has recovered from his injuries, has devoted all his attention to sword practice and missions. For a while, his words have decreased a lot, and he looks like he doesn't answer anyone he sees.

He seems to have recovered when he first came here, at three o'clock and one line every day, often staying in his own room, keeping a distance from everyone.The door to the room at the far west end of the corridor has been tightly closed, cutting off his connection with the world.

The hustle and bustle caused by him was silent again, and it seemed that the whole Balian was quieter than before.

……

"Tsk, it's almost there."

Chris pulled the card out and sighed with a headache.

Seeing that the repayment time is coming, he has not saved enough money.Looks like I have to make a few more trips.

For nearly half a year, his progress is undoubtedly outstanding.Both the mission and the strength have been greatly improved, and his reputation has gradually become known.

He has been able to take the lives of others without changing his face.

Chris came out of the flower shop, holding a branch of white rose in his hand. The white buds had just bloomed, and they became more and more beautiful.

He walked to the corner of the alley as usual, and he heard a soft and beautiful female voice, the singing was clear and moving.

At the end of the song, he smiled and applauded, and then sent fragrant roses to the beauty.

"Thank you."

Valentina sniffed lightly and smiled intoxicatingly.

"How is your lord recently?"

"Me? It's about the same as usual." Chris shrugged and smiled self-deprecatingly. "As long as the church doesn't collapse, everything is not bad, right?"

"If the heart cannot be peaceful, even reading the Bible silently every day will be powerless."

"You mean my heart is not at peace?"

Facing what Valentina meant, he asked puzzledly, "Why do you say that?"

Valentina smiled and did not answer, but turned around and took out a stack of cards from the package she was carrying, and laid out a strange formation on the ground.

Chris was a little surprised, but he didn't interrupt her actions, but observed quietly.

After it was set up, he also squatted down.

"what is this?"

"It's just a trick, do you want to try it?" Valentina pointed her thin white fingers. "There are 78 cards in total. You decide what to test in your heart and choose one based on your intuition."

Chris touched his nose, and randomly chose a card that was closer to him.He turned it over, and there was a picture of a naked blond woman pouring water from an earthen pot, with several neatly drawn eight-pointed stars in the background.

"Thestar?" He followed up and examined it carefully.

"Why is it a star?"

"So it's the stars." Valentina's expression was very strange, as if she was sad and relieved. "The stars symbolize hope, hard work pays off, windfalls... All in all, it's a very good card."

Speaking of this, she raised her head, revealing her beautiful eyes under her long brown hair.

"What were you thinking when you were drawing cards?"

"I--"

Chris hesitated for a second, subconsciously concealing his true thoughts.

"future."

"Really." Valentina said with a smile, "That's good, the stars symbolize a bright future, and your future must be bright."

"Lend your auspicious words."

Chris stood up and looked up at the weather. "Ah, it's getting late, I still have something to do, let's talk about it next time."

——What to measure?

In fact, his first reaction was love, and a stern face flashed in his mind that made him shudder.However, a smooth love road is simply illusory to him.

Tch, divination is probably the most unreliable thing.

Chris suddenly realized that he was still holding the card in his hand, he looked along the glare of the sun, and then threw the card away at will.

The card spun around in mid-air, fell to the ground leisurely, and was picked up by a slender hand in the next second.

"Well, it's actually a star."

The young man had disheveled silver hair, and his long and narrow purple eyes shone with a strange cold light.He squinted his eyes, looked at the distant figure, and said thoughtfully: "Unrequited love, is things going too far..."

Soon, his murmurs disappeared into the crowd.

————————————————————————

Chris forgot about it.

He had just received the report from the Finance Department, thought for a while, and decided to take on that task.

In order to pay back the money, I fought.

The afterglow of the setting sun reflected on the wall, reflecting a warm orange color.

Chris made a decisive decision, packed up his things and went out.It turned out that Squalo just happened to come out of XANXUS's room with a gloomy expression on his face.

The eyes of the two met, and they were stunned for a moment.

Seems like it's been months since we've seen each other.

Chris pulled out a warm arc, and said lightly: "I'm back."

"Ah."

"..."

"..."

The atmosphere was a little awkward for a while, he turned his face away, and said in a low voice: "I'm going out, goodbye."

After speaking, as if he was afraid of seeing that person's expression again, he jumped directly from the stairs, and disappeared in the hall in a few seconds.

"Yo, I've been rejected."

Lusilia and Mamon walked out of the door one after another, looking at Squalo with malicious smiles on their faces: "Do you need someone to comfort you~"

Squalo glared at him sharply, turned and left.

"Mind your own business."

……

The lighting is dim and intoxicating, and the small bar exudes a decadent atmosphere.

The DJ played music with ambiguous tunes one after another, and many people in the center of the dance floor were dancing to the music.The inside seemed to be very lively, the bar in front of the bartender was already full of guests, and they all proficiently reported the names of the wines.

However, this place seems to be different from the usual bars.

If you look closely, the people who accompany you on the dance floor are all men or women, and most of the guests who are leaning together to make fun of at the bar are of the same sex.

Quinto has been sitting here for a long time.

He drank one cup after another, only the seat next to him was empty, which seemed very strange in the bar.

Occasionally, a man came up to strike up a conversation because of his pretty face, but he ruthlessly rejected him after looking critically at him.

Tsk, sure enough, there are fewer and fewer good ones.

He sighed boringly, raised his head and drank another glass, planning to go back to the apartment to find his little lover later.

Suddenly, there was whistling and whistling in the bar.

He paused while drinking, then raised his eyebrows and looked at the source of the sound—what happened?

The originally crowded crowd at the door forcibly squeezed out a spacious path, and a person who eclipsed the surroundings came out.He is between a man and a boy, with both the soft curves of a teenager and the handsomeness of a youth.There was a careless smile on the corner of his mouth, clean eyebrows, slender arcs, a pair of lake blue eyes that seemed to be a smile but not a smile, and a slightly invisible indifference flashed through the waves.

The visitor was wearing a white shirt, his cuffs were loosely rolled up, revealing his slender wrists, and his legs were straight and tall, which were further accentuated by the slender black trousers.

He raised his eyebrows and glanced around, then suddenly fixed his gaze on Quinto, and strode over.

Even though he had been in love for a long time, Quinto's heart trembled slightly when he saw him.He put down his wine glass and watched the man get closer and closer without blinking.

Until it came to the front.

The young man bent down and leaned close to his ear, breathing on his cheeks while speaking, his voice was low and seductive.

"gentlemen."

"Ok?"

Kunto smelled the strange faint scent of perfume, and was a little distracted for a while.

He chuckled and put his hand on Quinto's shoulder.

"Can I have a drink?"
