Chapter 50 The First Player
After thinking about it, Xi Haiqing Dou opened the bullet screen. Sometimes the timely feedback bullet screen can also reflect the true mood of the reader, and the bullet screen is sometimes really good with the comics - no one can resist opening it.
For example, when seeing Vermouth, who had not appeared in the first few episodes, the audience's feelings were quite consistent:
[I greeted her directly and confidently! Hi, wife!! Sister Bei, my only sister! Sister Bei, please give her more roles! ]
【Ahhh, Sister Bei finally appeared! It turns out that she was filming before, and Sister Bei who is doing business is also very beautiful! She winked at me, she has me in her heart! What is this? Thousand-faced witch, kiss me! What is this? Thousand-faced witch, kiss me! 】
[The "wake up my husband" in the previous sentence was a wink to me, thank you. If your husband is handsome, cool and can disguise himself, please give him back to me if you find him. He is my husband! ]
[As expected, Sister Bay’s character of hating Ai will never fall. Sister Bay: What is this? If you don’t like someone, just leave it to Cointreau. Cointreau:? 】
[I am the only one who is curious about whether the relationship between Sister Bay and Cointreau is good or bad. Why did you suggest that the boss leave Ai to Cointreau? ]
After hanging up the phone, Vermouth hesitated for a while in his spare time, and finally took the time to go to the school where Miyano Shiho was.
She stood under the shade of the tree and glanced through her sunglasses at the short-haired girl in a white coat in the crowd. The two looked at each other from a distance for a moment, and then Vermouth turned away expressionlessly, and Miyano Shiho also looked away at the same time.
The composition of the picture forms a beautiful contrast between light and dark. The sunlight shines on Miyano Shiho and her companions, casting a circle of light on her body, with the shadows under her feet hidden in the shadows; while Vermouth is completely blocked from all sunlight by the shadows of the trees above her head, shrouded in black shadows, with a face as cold as ice.
As expected, the barrage exploded:
[Ahhh what did I see! Belaï and I are in the same frame! I stand in the shadows and secretly watch her! Bermode, do you love me, hate me, or both?]
[Fourteen-year-old Ai is so cute! Ai must have classmates and friends at this time. She looks so small and cute standing among her friends! At this time, she can still stand in the light openly. Miyano Shiho... (tears)]
[Damn it, how can you feed the knife to yourself so badly? Stop using the knife on me, wuwuwu]
[Ai and Bie are standing in the light and the other in the shadow. I can’t blame myself for this! It was the old thief who forced me to do it! The contrast between light and shadow and the look at each other and turning around are really amazing. I really get this. It’s my blessing to be able to follow Bie and Ai.]
[Xiao Ai is only 14 years old and still a loli! Mommy doesn't agree with this marriage, don't knock! ]
[I suddenly feel that Vermouth may not necessarily dislike Ai, right? I suddenly feel a complex emotion of love and hate... Old thief, you are so good at drawing...]
Vermouth turned and left, and after meeting Miyano Shiho, he boarded the plane. Then the scene changed, and Gin, wearing a black coat and black hat, opened the door of the bar, sat in the corner and ordered a drink. After a while, Cointreau also came over and sat opposite Gin, smiled nonchalantly, walked to Gin's side and said, "Dear, long time no see", which was stuck in the last frame of the page turn.
【Ahhh? ? My expression is like the bartender next to me, what new thing are you playing with, old thief? ? Cointreau, you kid? ? Are you playing with it so much? 】
[No, Cointreau, are you really a straight man? What is the relationship between you and gin? (Don’t pull me in and make me drink)]
[Why did you suddenly say such a weird thing? What are you doing, husband? ? I, the old thief, advise you not to be so blatant.]
After turning the page, it was revealed that "Gin" was actually Vermouth in disguise, and the two chatted for a while before finally getting down to business and discussing "Sherry". In the first half, the comic mostly stayed in the discussion of CP:
[Fuck, Sister Bay, you and Cointreau, you two are really shameless... I am dying of laughter, I can no longer look at Gin. Gin: I will destroy you both when I get back.]
[This turn is as exciting as a roller coaster (covering my chest). In just a few frames, I actually bumped into Qin Jun, Bei Jun, Martini, and Bei Ai. Who knows how many CPs there are? It's so tense, howpay for each one! Now he really has mastered the CP code (smoke.jpg)]
[They are both people I like, one is my husband (Sister Bei) and the other is my wife (Brother Qiu), two happy things happened together, why, why do I suddenly feel like I’ve been heartbroken…]
There are also sporadic discussions about the plot:
[The past? What past can a distinguished VIP like me not hear! (Lifting his ears) Keep telling me what happened in your past! It feels like Miss Bay and Cointreau have known each other for a long time... Has Cointreau also joined the winery's old-timers group?]
[Here I suddenly feel that the relationship between Bayleigh Cointreau and gin seems to be quite good... The winery often sets traps for good colleagues. ]
Then, in the comic, Vermouth leaned close to the white-haired young man's ear and whispered to him softly: "Shirley is going back to her country."
The white-haired young man said, "At her age, I think she should be called a girl. She is indeed a genius." His tone was calm as he spoke, with a smile on his lips, but his eyelashes drooped down to cover his eyes, and the expression on his face was between indifference and despair.
Vermode couldn't see his expression clearly, and pulled away from him. She only heard this comment, and she couldn't accept why he was so calm. Did he forget whose child the 14-year-old "genius" was? How could he... not hate her? He should be more angry, more disgusted, and more hateful than her.
"Belmaud, calm down. You and I both know that she will come back one day, sooner or later. It's just a matter of time."
In the comic, the lights of the bar flickered on the face of the white-haired young man. His features were between light and dark, and his words were calm, as if he had already realized that their past and future had already embarked on a predetermined and unchangeable path, so there would not be any accidents. He was calm and objective, as if he had completely kept himself out of the matter.
But Vermode didn't believe he could really stay so calm. He was just like her. No matter how well he covered up, he couldn't really stay out of it. He just wanted to pretend that it had nothing to do with him. But she wanted him to know that he, like her, would never be able to escape from this vortex. What she hated most was the calmness on his face.
His week-long low burn was not long ago. How could he be truly free of grudges and resentment? Unless he was a saint. But who would be a saint? Even if everyone in the world died and only the two of them were left, the saint would not be Cointreau.
Bermode's voice was filled with schadenfreude: "The boss will not leave her alone in the country. There is no way I will take this good job... Anyway, your chances are much greater than others. I'll give you this information for free, no thanks."
As she expected, the young man's calm expression instantly shattered, with confusion and malice on his face: "Let me go? Boss, are you really not afraid that I will die with her? I think Gin is much more reliable than me, so how about asking him?"
Seeing the mask on his face being pierced by her, the malicious thought that "being with her might make him lose control and want to kill her and die together" instantly made Vermode's face look much better.
How much better is choosing "gin" than choosing "Cointreau"? Letting gin "take care of people" is more like a malicious joke.
The blonde girl stood up with a smile, blew him a kiss and another message, then turned and left.
Outside the comic, Xi Haiqing Dou touched his face, and the expression on his face was quite deep. How should I put it? If he hadn't read the comic, he would have no idea that this was what Vermouth was thinking. Wanting to see his expression change, what kind of Vermouth-style bad taste is this... But from Vermouth's perspective, it's understandable that she would think this way.
The "psychological activities" added to him in the comics and the "malice" that was deliberately exaggerated made him want to dig out a Louvre with his toes, but from some perspectives, it also perfected the characterization of "Cointreau". Is the comic trying to make him a "tragic victim"?
Although the discussion between him and Bermode about the "experiment" and the "Miyano couple" was selectively deleted in the middle, it seems that the cartoonist or the comic did not want to reveal the direct connection between Cointreau and Bermode and the experiment so quickly...
But the sharp barrage can still detect a different atmosphere in the deleted and revised lines. In the beginning, there were discussions about CP, but in the end, the focus shifted to the discussion of the plot.
[Oh my god, Cointreau feels so broken… What happened in the past between Miss Bay and Cointreau? Is it my illusion that there is a knife in my wife’s past? The child is so scared (hold yourself tight.jpg)]
[Ahhh, refuse the knife, knife, baa! It's all real alcohol, refuse to live a miserable life! QAQ hug our big taro brother]
【What is the name of the grass taro balls? I am dying of laughter. They are too cute. The atmosphere is gone in an instant. It seems that Cointreau has many secrets in the past. I didn't expect that his illness for a week was related to Ai? Or was it related to the Miyano couple? It can't be related to drug A, right? I thought Cointreau was born with a weak constitution. Now it seems that it is related to the Miyano couple?】
[Cointreau's expression changes really fast, and his crazy character setting is still there. This villain face is really comparable to Gin... He seems calm on the surface, but was he broken by what Bayley said? I don't quite understand what Bayley meant by that sentence? ]
[I guess they should send someone to monitor Ai-chan when she returns to the country? But what kind of yandere devilish statement is this to say that they want to die together? Ahhh, Taro, what are you going to do to our Ai-chan? She is still a child, don’t hurt her.]
[I hate the mystery teller! Tell me what the past and secrets of Cointreau and Sister Bei are! Is it related to drug A? Cointreau will be included in the main story, old thief, tell me! (Pull the old thief by the collar) (Shake wildly) (Fifth Prince roars) (Spit on the old thief's face)]
