Night World Players

Chapter 1 Yes, it’s what you think
"You said you seemed to have seen me somewhere before, and you thought I was special?"

Hiltina shook the wine glass in her hand, and the wine swirled around the wall of the glass.

She raised her glass and looked in front of her: "Let me think... the next ones should be "You are the most beautiful girl I have ever seen", "There are stars in your eyes", "This child is a gift I left for you", right?"

Across the table, the young man’s profile was shrouded in dim candlelight, his features clear and deep.

Even if one were to look at him with the most critical eyes, his appearance could still be described as stunning.

But perhaps because of this appearance, the other party's pick-up skills are disastrous. I think he is a sea king who relies on his good looks to flirt with other women.

Just as she had labeled the other person a scumbag in her mind, Hiltina saw the young man who called himself Last raise his chin and look her up and down with a scrutinizing gaze.

"There are about 110,000 people living in Deep Blue Harbor, and there are a few of the opposite sex who I can give an 8 out of 10."

"Whether it's the lead dancer in the opera house or the female councillor in the city council, I've had close contact with them... They each have their own charms, and you can only say that they are on par with them."

"So, I can't give you the evaluation of "the most beautiful girl I have ever seen" for the time being."

The boy's frank look and words left Hiltina speechless for a moment.

She moved her lips and wanted to speak to end this unexpected conversation, but the other party's next sentence made Hiltina slightly stunned.

"However, compared to them, you are indeed very special."

Luster smiled.

"For example, if you are willing to reveal your true identity, then I might be able to give you the first 8.5 points in Deep Blue Harbor."

"Um?"

Xiltina responded nonchalantly, but the laziness in her eyes disappeared a little: "Makeup is also a part of a woman's appearance."

"That's certainly true, but most women dress up to enhance their attractiveness, and you do the exact opposite."

"This seems to be a relatively sophisticated disguise method. It does not drastically change the details of the facial features, but it can completely change a person's temperament and the first impression they give, making it impossible for those who are not aware of the situation to associate the person with their original appearance."

Luster spoke calmly.

"in addition--"

Rast stretched out his hand and pointed at Hiltina's chest.

It was a diamond-shaped pendant with a lifelike laurel branch engraved on the ruby.

"As far as I know, no jewelry store in Deep Blue Harbor has such micro-carving craftsmanship."

Xiltina took a sip of wine and narrowed her eyes: "Are you a sculptor?"

"I once thought about it for a while because of my interest, but when there was no better carver than me in Deep Blue Harbor, I lost interest."

"You also know how to disguise yourself and disguise yourself?"

"I used to be the chief stylist of the Deep Blue Harbor Opera House, and it was just a hobby... The disguise you used was very clever, but you are obviously not a professional actor. There are many subtle unnatural aspects to your disguise, which are not difficult for me to see."

"By the way, that's how I met the lead dancer who's pretty, good at ballet, and loves to wear black stockings."

No one asked you this...

Hiltina rubbed her brows and looked at Rast who had a calm expression in front of her.

"So you're trying to tell me that, at a young age of less than 20 years old, you've already become the best sculptor in Deep Blue Harbor, the chief stylist of the opera house, and you also know all the most attractive people of the opposite sex in Deep Blue Harbor?"

"Do I look easy to fool?"

Judging from the other person's appearance, the last one might have a slight possibility.

But if we add the previous statements, the only explanation is that the other party is making up stories without any basis.

"Normal people really can't do this, but I'm different."

Luster's words remained calm.

"My fate has been hopelessly stopped at this day. As long as dusk comes, everything will start all over again."

"I am an abandoned person exiled by time. Tomorrow will never come to me... Of course, in other words, for the other residents of Deep Blue Harbor at this moment, I also have unlimited opportunities to start over." "Whether it's a master sculptor, a chief stylist, or getting to know a high-ranking woman in a short period of time. These are all things that can be successful as long as you accumulate enough experience and have enough trial and error times."

"As someone who has unlimited time, I can do this kind of thing as long as I want to do it."

Rast picked up the bottle on the table and poured the last bit of wine into Hiltina's empty glass.

"That's why I say you are the special one."

"The doubts I mentioned earlier are actually not worth mentioning...Special disguise techniques, or bringing more advanced carved ornaments from outside Deep Blue Harbor, these are nothing big—"

"Every one of the 110,000 residents in Deep Blue Harbor has their own secrets. Even if I have unlimited time, I am not interested in exploring everyone's privacy one by one."

"But you are different."

Rast looked into Hiltina's eyes and spoke word by word.

"I am quite sure of that."

"In the tens of thousands of times I've experienced this day, you've never appeared in Deep Blue Harbor."

"Not once."

……

Tick.

Tick.

The room was silent, with only the sound of the ticking second hand remaining.

Listening to Rast's unhurried words, Hiltina's eyes narrowed slightly and she unconsciously put her hand on her waist.

next moment.

jingle--

A clear ring tone suddenly rang in the room.

Hiltina looked up at the source of the sound, and the hands on the wall clock clearly showed the current time -

It's twelve o'clock exactly at midnight.

"Hey, is it time yet?"

"We just finished drinking."

Rast shook the exquisite empty wine bottle in his hand and looked at Hiltina in front of him.

"So may I have the honor of having another drink with you, beautiful lady?"

The serious look on his face disappeared, and was replaced by a smile that made everyone who saw him feel like spring breeze.

The boy's smile was very faint, like clear water, but it reflected infinite colors in the faint moonlight. Even with Hiltina's vision, she could not deny his beauty, and an ordinary woman could never refuse his invitation.

"Given your status, I think "Karma Fire Flowing Sand" and "Amber Love" are most suitable for your temperament."

Hiltina was silent.

She had looked at the wine list. Infernal Flowing Sand and Amber Love were the most expensive drinks in the bar.

Of course, it is also the one that scams the most money.

It was not until this moment that Hiltina remembered that it was Rast who sat opposite her very naturally and opened the red wine she ordered when she entered the store in a very familiar manner.

She couldn't help but have some associations in her mind: "You can't be..."

"I can get the highest commission from "Sand of Hell" and "Amber Love". "

Luster smiled.

"So yes, it's what you think."
