Chapter 260, That Doesn’t Count
(Song title: Le Zi Jue, you can go and listen to it. If you still remember the previous plot, you will probably understand why this song is mentioned repeatedly.)
After leaving the sight of the two people behind him, Zhuo's nerves, which had been tense since a few days ago, finally relaxed temporarily.

Your mood starts to become strange. Some people who were supposed to be superior to you suddenly become your defeated opponents, without even any chance to fight back.

Zhuo didn't seem to feel any pleasure from this. Instead, he felt helpless as he had gone around in circles but still couldn't escape.

look up.

The clouds have dissipated.

Moon stars are rare.

……

"The ancestor waved his whisk
Yinxiantai sees the name/
Who is the gifted one?
……

Stealing away for a long time

The charming wine is intoxicating

Provoking the first thunderbolt
I wanted to survive the immortal tribulation, but it didn't work out as I wished.
The furnace exploded and my face turned black.
……

Riding on the clouds, happy and carefree fairy/
One side of the fairyland Jiuxiaoyunzhong Palace/
Don’t get involved with evil spirits/
The ups and downs of the world should be taken lightly/
……

The three realms dance gracefully in a white shirt
All the demons and evil spirits turned into smoke

I am in the fairyland with endless joy

na~na~na~n~”

On the quiet beach, the warm fluorescent lights create a unique little world in the dark night. A huge parasol is propped up above the simple beach tables and chairs. The man has a bright smile on his face, holding a highball glass in his left hand, swinging it left and right to the rhythm of the music.

"A man in white dances with the three realms, and all the demons and evil spirits turn into smoke~"

The cheerful rhythm was originally a female song, but the man sang it just as well, it sounded very nice, and he fully hummed out the carefree charm of the song.

Jiude Mai and Su Enxi both held their chins with one hand, watching their boss having fun with confusion and boredom.

Fifteen minutes ago, the four of them were still drawing joker cards in the house, and fifteen minutes later, they were sitting under an umbrella listening to people singing.

This was the first time they saw the boss express his emotions so obviously. Although he often smiled in the past, he didn't feel like smiling. I remember that once the boss invited them to watch the opera version of "Romeo and Juliet". It was a great performance. Everyone was immersed in the gorgeous lyrics, and Su Enxi was no exception. The audience applauded the scene where Romeo and Juliet met, and some shouted Bravo, but the boss had no expression on his face and his eyes were so empty, as if the people dancing on the stage were just zombies.

After the opera, Su Enxi asked the boss if he didn’t like it. The boss said no, he liked it very much, and then said a lot of very literary words.

The boss is such a neurotic person, sometimes he will act funny and mean, sometimes he will be silly, and sometimes he will say some literary words, but no one knows what kind of person he is deep in his heart, maybe even he himself doesn't know what kind of person he is.

Only this time, the boss even clapped his hands to the beat of the song~
Even they became happy.

The song is over.

"Okay girls, that's all for today, go back and have a rest first. Staying up late is a woman's natural enemy~" The boss suddenly clapped his hands, stopped, stood up and said.

Su Enxi and Jiude Mai were not surprised at all, because the boss was always so weird. It seemed that he would go to so much trouble to come out in the rain just to let them listen to him sing a song in the rain.

The two stood up and left without saying a word.

Because they came here on the boss's 'spur of the moment', they were still wearing thin pajamas. It was already autumn, and it was a rainy night and at the seaside, so it was particularly cold.

When Jude Mai left, she drank the red wine in front of her in one gulp.

The boss slowly cleaned the table, then took out a brand new goblet from the box below and placed it opposite, then poured the reddish-brown liquid from the decanter into the goblet.

"You can come with us," the boss said to the cup as he poured it.

The Russian girl who had been standing on the beach nodded and started walking back on the beach.

Without even looking up to confirm, the boss took out cakes and candies from the box, put them on small plates, placed them on the table, then pinched his chin to look at them... and finally moved the candy plate a little bit, then nodded with satisfaction.

The clouds have dissipated.

Moon stars are rare.

The moonlight filtered through the liquid in the wine glass and hit the pure white beach table, appearing a light red.

The boss looked up, his light golden eyes sparkling as he stared at the sea in front of him. Then... with a dull 'plop' sound, something fell into the sea.

The sea surface at the landing point was dented like plasticine.

Subsequently.

The sea surface surged and rolled back and forth, and soon a ten-meter-high wave formed and headed towards the coastline. Ten meters is not high, but not low either, about the height of a three-story building.

The parasols on the beach looked very small in front of it, like the paper toys inserted in the children's meals in McDonald's.

The man under the umbrella remained calm and smiling as he sat quietly in the chair, watching the approaching waves.

Fifty meters... thirty meters... twenty meters... ten meters...

...Until the waves blocked the moonlight and twinkling stars jumped on the umbrella, he did not move.

As the waves crashed down on us, something strange happened quietly.

The waves passed silently over the pergola.

The boss' figure reappeared, and the smile on his face seemed to have never changed. This is the kind of person who would remain unaware even when facing a mountain collapsing in front of him - even his clothes were the same as before.

It was as if it was just a projection, a mirage, so the waves ignored him.

Zhuo slowly walked out of the sea and shook his hair... Yes, he walked out. In fact, before falling into the water, Utsunomiya Zhuo forgot that he couldn't swim.

Besides, without the ability of reflex, it is impossible to swim.

Standing on the beach, he shook the water off his head like a puppy, then wiped his face and looked up to meet the 'boss's' gaze.

accident.

It's not really surprising.

Of course, it doesn’t refer to the fact that the boss was waiting here in advance, but the other person’s appearance.

I have forgotten how Zhuo was described in the original text, but my impression of him was that he looked like a young child.

Like a middle school student.

But the person in front of him didn't look like a child... and certainly didn't look like an uncle... but a high school student about his age.

But the difference is not big.

Lu Mingze, or rather, Number Zero.

Lu Mingze sat in the chair without moving. He stretched out his hand and pushed the base of the high-heeled glass opposite him. Zhuo guessed that he meant that this glass was yours.

Zhuo scratched his neck and looked around.

Empty beach.

He then pointed his index finger in a certain direction, and immediately a column of water rose out of thin air in that direction. The water flowed in a circle in the air, connecting the beginning and the end.

The speed is getting faster and faster.

Finally, a sharp sizzling sound was heard.

A flick of the finger.

The water rushed towards Lu Mingze at a speed that could not be captured by the naked eye - and then passed through him.

Missed it again.

Zhuo tilted his head, then slowly walked over and sat down on the chair.

He put his hands on his legs, rested his neck on the backrest, opened his mouth, and his eyes were vague and unfocused.

So complicated.

What a trouble! What a trouble! What a trouble! What a trouble!… He kept complaining in his heart.

"Although it's very rude, are we even now?"

Hearing Lu Mingze's smiling, calm voice, Zhuo sat up and left the chair to look at him. He shook his head calmly and said, "That doesn't count. I was just trying. If I could just kill you, I wouldn't have to waste my time talking nonsense with you."

　Is Rick's phantom pole so expensive? It makes me feel so sad.

　　So annoying!

　　I feel like I’ve lost out!
