When Roger walked into the bar, he was shocked by the characteristics of this place. On the sea-blue wallpaper, there were many vivid fish pasted in three dimensions. Coupled with the soft lighting on the roof, this place didn't look like a bar at all. Instead, it looked like an oceanarium. The decoration style was so alternative, which showed that the owner of this bar was very individual.

There is a snack area at the bar at the entrance, and next to it are several sets of soft sofas and coffee tables for people to rest. Further in is the upper area, where rows of computers are arranged in an orderly manner, and many young men and women are sitting in front of the computers.

Roger retracted his gaze, walked to the bar, and said, "Hello, do you have a private room?"

Hearing the sound, the girl sitting at the bar immediately looked up.

Under the light, the young man in front of him had fair skin, handsome eyebrows and eyes, a pair of black eyes that were clear and compelling, and his hands on the bar were particularly beautiful, with slender fingers and round fingertips, almost suitable for a hand model advertisement. However, he had a cold and aloof aura, completely like the template of the aloof male god in TV dramas.

The girl had been in the bar for so many days, and this young man was the most handsome one she had ever seen.

Roger looked down and found that the girl had a small and cute oval face and big, bright eyes, staring at him blankly.

Roger asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"

The girl came back to her senses: "Ah, no, nothing. You want a private room, right? I checked and saw that there are only double rooms left. Can you book it by yourself?"

"Can."

"for how long?"

"Until six in the evening."

"Okay, please show me your ID."

Roger took out his ID card from his wallet and handed it to her. The girl took the ID card and turned on the machine swiftly, then personally took Roger to the private room in the corner.

The private room is very spacious. Through the huge French windows, you can clearly see the scenery outside. There is also a pair of sofas for resting and a small coffee table by the window. In the middle of the room is a large computer table with two high-end desktop computers placed side by side. The large-size monitor can make the computer screen appear more clearly in front of you. The environment of the whole room is as clean and comfortable as being at home.

Roger was very satisfied with the place and with the help of the girl, he swiped his card to turn on the computer.

There was a game icon for Unique Jianghu on the desktop. Roger saw that the girl was standing behind him and didn't leave, so he asked, "Is there a light screen touchpad?"

"Ah? What's that?" the girl was stunned.

"I need the optical screen touchpad that comes with Dubu Jianghu. Do you have it?" Roger repeated patiently.

"Oh! Yes, I'll get it for you right away!" The girl turned around and took it immediately. But I was confused. This game is much more convenient to play with a keyboard than with a light screen. R games require blind typing, and keyboard operation only requires remembering 1234r and the space bar. But light screen touch requires fingers to slide quickly on the LCD tablet, which requires higher finger flexibility. If you are not careful, you will press the wrong position. Why is this person so stubborn to use the light screen?

However, when the customer needed it, she was still very responsible and got a brand new control panel from the storage room.

Roger took the LCD panel, connected it to the computer via the SB port, then put on the specially made R glasses and logged into the Du Bu Jiang Hu game.

The edge of the high-tech LCD screen immediately lit up with a blue light like water ripples. The square area on the left side of the screen was divided into 16 small squares of 44 by blue thin lines, and the sliding area on the right side also had some corresponding changes. Three icons appeared in the upper left corner of the LCD panel, namely, Swordsmanship, Sword Rain and Sunset, and Qinggong Skills, Pian Ruo Jinghong. The lower right corner showed the secret skill Sword Rain and Fragrance. Obviously, Roger's previous settings in the game had been automatically saved on the server and synchronized to the new control panel.

The girl stared blankly at him as he quickly made the settings. With a glance, she noticed his game: Mohen was written in the upper left corner of the computer screen.

Isn’t this the exceptionally powerful swordsman who was in the upgraded team yesterday?

The girl was about to ask, but she heard the young man in front of her said indifferently: "Are you the Little Medicine Fairy?"

"Ah?" The girl who was recognized was a little surprised, "How did you know?"

"The voice is very similar." Roger had long felt that the girl's voice was very familiar, very much like the novice healer who had been leveling up with him yesterday. Later, when he thought about it carefully, just now at the bar, he saw from the corner of his eye that the computer next to her was playing the game of Du Bu Jiang Hu, in which there was a character of Fang Cao Tang Pharmacist, and when he logged in, the Little Medicine Fairy was indeed online.

Roger has always been careful and particularly sensitive to details such as sounds and images. Based on these clues, he immediately deduced that this girl was the little medicine fairy in the fixed upgrade team.

Since the other party had also seen him, Roger no longer concealed it and told it directly.

"That's right! What a coincidence!" The girl whose voice was recognized said excitedly, "My real name is Shen Qi, you can just call me Xiao Qi! This bar is opened by my cousin, and I came here to help out when I was bored during the holidays. You live nearby, right? You can come often when you have time in the future. I'll give you a private card, so you don't have to pay any more fees. Also, there are a lot of delicious food in the snack area, do you want to eat anything?"

"I've had breakfast, thank you." The girl was very enthusiastic, but Roger looked polite and cold.

"Then I'll get you a plate of fruit." The girl happily ran over and brought a large plate of fruit, which included cut apples, pears, pineapples, kiwis, dragon fruits, and watermelons. She placed the fruit plate directly on the table, turned around and got two bottles of drinks, and said with a smile, "It's so rare to meet friends here. I'll treat you, don't hesitate!"

Since she had already brought it, Roger had no choice but to stop refusing and took the drink and said, "Thank you."

The girl did not leave, but looked at Roger's LCD tablet curiously.

Roger asked: "What's wrong?"

Shen Qi scratched his head embarrassedly and said, "You are the first customer who asked for the Dubu Jianghu LCD screen. My cousin said that in the arena, keyboard control would be easier than optical screen, because mechanical keyboard can ensure fast and conflict-free keystrokes, but optical screens are prone to errors if they slide continuously, so he refused to purchase more. There are less than ten LCD panels at present, and yours is still unopened."

Roger turned around and asked, "Your cousin knows a lot about games, right?"

Shen Qi smiled and said: "Yeah. He used to be a professional player, but later he stopped playing games and opened this place."

"Professional player?" Roger became curious, "What's his name?"

"Fish swim in water." Shen Qi said.

Roger felt very familiar with this person. After thinking carefully, he remembered that this person was once the main healer of the Longyin team. The event that Roger and Logan competed in was "Miracle". In addition to Miracle, there are many large-scale games in China that have established professional leagues. Players of different events basically do not communicate with each other. This "Fish Swimming in Water" is a player of other events. He happened to serve in the Longyin Club. Roger had never seen him before, but he had heard Logan mention him and had some impression of him.

There was a power outage at home today, so I went to the bar across the street. Coincidentally, I walked into a bar opened by an e-sports player. This bar happened to be related to the Longyin Club where Logan was. Roger suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart. He always felt that this trip to the bar might disrupt his originally peaceful life.

At this moment, the pager in Shen Qi's pocket suddenly rang. Shen Qi hurriedly said, "Maybe a customer is ordering food. I'll go to the front desk first. If you have anything, just call me directly."

Roger nodded: "Okay, go ahead and get busy."

Before the other teammates came online, Roger controlled his swordsman to open the skill tree and learn the level 30 skills.

The level 30 skill of the Hanhua Sword School is called "Unparalleled Sword Intent". It is an independent skill and cannot trigger a combo effect with other skills. However, its advantage is that it locks onto the target to launch an attack, cannot be dodged, and can deal high single-player damage, and can kill low-health targets at critical moments.

Roger was studying the new skills he had learned when a message suddenly appeared in the private chat window in the lower right corner. It simply said, "Good morning."

Sender: Qianli Bingfeng. It was the assassin from yesterday.

Roger had a strange intuition that this person's fighting style was similar to Logan's, but he had no evidence to confirm it. Looking back, he happened to see him standing next to him. Apparently, he had also reached level 30 and had just completed a task when he came to this NPC.

Roger replied with one word: "Morning."

Qianli Bingfeng: "Want to upgrade together?"

Mohen: "No, I'm waiting for my teammates."

Qianli Bingfeng: "Okay, I'll wait for my teammates too."

Then, he naturally sat down next to Mo Hen.

Roger was just sitting down to study the skill data, and when he sat down, the two of them sat side by side on the top of the mountain.

It was early morning in the game. The sky on the top of the mountain was clear blue and the clear chirping of birds could be heard from time to time.

The sun had just risen in the east, and the surrounding clouds were flowing with the wind, and the rays of the morning sun were shining with strands of golden red, creating a very realistic visual effect. At the foot of the mountain was the prosperous Mingzhou City, where ancient buildings stood in neat rows. Outside Mingzhou City, four small roads in the east, south, west, and north meandered and extended to the unknown distance.

This scene of the rising sun in the game world is quiet and peaceful, as if far away from the troubles of the world, and even more beautiful than the real paradise.

Qianli Bingfeng: "The scenery here is nice."

Roger typed two words in agreement: "Yes."

Qianli Bingfeng: "What games have you played before?"

Mo Hen: "Want to get some information?"

Qianli Bingfeng: "Yes, I was discovered."

This person is very direct and doesn't know how to beat around the bush at all.

Thinking of the mixed-race boy who always spoke directly and didn't know what "euphemism" meant, Roger's expression softened for once, and he quickly sent a line of words: "Don't try to get any information from me. It doesn't matter who I am, and you can't find out. You'd better take your teammates to upgrade as soon as possible."

Seeing this line of small words, Logan couldn't help but be stunned. It seemed that the other party had already seen that he was a professional player, but didn't say it out loud. Did he mean to keep a distance and not interfere with each other?

After a moment of silence, Logan said, "Okay. Since you don't want to talk about it, I won't ask."

But in my heart I am thinking that even though you are stubborn and don’t want to say anything now, one day I will make you confess!
