The Witch's Imaginary Land: Redemption Comes After Sticking Together

However, the other party's attitude back then was not as open as it is now.

Jiang Kehan ​​looked at Li Hui with suspicion, feeling uneasy for some reason, and spoke hesitantly.

"Who says you have to drink alcohol when you go to a pub? Can't you drink milk?"

Besides, I went there on a mission, so I can't let it interfere with my business.

Uh, who's the kind person who goes to a pub to drink milk?

Li Hui glanced sideways at Jiang Kehan ​​and asked with some curiosity.

"Is this a task from the academy? I remember it's almost time for the school team selections again."

Although she stays at home every day, she still has a very clear understanding of the important events in the college.

Jiang Kehan ​​nodded, used magic to destroy the empty milk bottle, and then tugged at Li Hui's hand, acting coquettishly.

"Can you really bear to let a weak woman like me go alone?"

First of all, you are not a weak woman; secondly, please trust that the police can jump out from behind you at any time.

Li Hui spoke in an annoyed tone.

"Okay, okay, I give up."

"Yay!" Jiang Kehan ​​lightly jumped up, waved her arms in mid-air, and then led Li Hui outside.

……

……

The two quickly arrived in the capital from the Witch Tower. The Witch Tavern was very close to the Witch Tower and was located in the core area of ​​the capital.

After all, the Witch's Tavern was actually run by a special department of the Witch Organization and the Witch Committee.

It was originally intended as a place for witches to vent their frustrations, but it also had its own special services.

Jiang Kehan ​​and Li Hui arrived at a door entrance following the road signs.

This place looks no different from the other rooms; it's a windowless metal box, molded as a single piece of metal.

After pushing it open, the interior resembles a hair salon from the 1980s, with a narrow passageway leading to a telephone booth at the end of the passageway.

Jiang Kehan's face paled instinctively. Needless to say, this thing was a spatial pavilion.

But the Witch's Tavern is actually located underground and on the second floor, connected in a way that transcends normal perception, so moving around is not uncomfortable.

The two pushed open the phone booth and dialed the number. After talking to the number inside, the call was quickly answered.

A voice, slightly carefree yet tinged with weariness, came through.

"Are you here for the tavern?"

"Mmm." Jiang Kehan ​​answered while holding the phone. This special space pavilion was indeed used for making phone calls. If a small room was booked in advance, it could be informed to the other party.

Because the coordinates for spatial transfer are input by the other party.

After confirming, Jiang Kehan ​​and Li Hui found themselves inside the tavern in a flash.

However, there was another door in front of them, filled with an aura of magic.

Li Hui explained to Jiang Kehan, "There are several magic circles engraved on it for cleaning and purification. They can both relieve hangovers and eliminate odors."

As expected of a high-end club, it's truly luxurious.

Jiang Kehan ​​only knew that things would be much easier after going through this door, but she didn't realize it was because of this.

The two pushed open the door and went inside, where they immediately heard soothing music playing in their ears.

The interior was surprisingly deserted, with a layout resembling a quiet bar in a science fiction world. There was only a small counter on the left side of the entrance, which was directly in front of the bar.

The first floor has no sofas or private rooms, but exquisite metal tables and chairs scattered around. Although they are metal, they have a crystal-like texture and are spaced far apart to ensure that whispering will not disturb other witches.

Many tables have one or two tilted books, serving as decorations.

Several witches each occupied a table, savoring their wine alone. Some were even wearing virtual reality glasses, browsing books, TV series, or live sports broadcasts.

The first-floor lobby and the second floor share a cylindrical roof.

The private rooms are designed with an inward cut, located at the second floor level, cutting into the wall.

On the counter, a witch was lying down, as if asleep.

Chapter 135 Stars

Jiang Kehan ​​looked around curiously. It was much more lively when she came last time, so she asked Li Hui in a low voice.

Why does it feel like there are far fewer people?

Li Hui smiled and patted Jiang Kehan's head, explaining to her.

"It's still daytime now, and many witches are still at work. It will get lively at night."

Moreover, during this time period, the Witch's Tavern only offers drinks and doesn't have any other activities.

Jiang Kehan ​​nodded knowingly, covered Li Hui's hand and put it in her arms, then chuckled and withdrew her own hand.

Hmm, Li Hui's hands were a little cold, but soft and comfortable to touch.

Witches are accustomed to handling serious matters under the great light and indulging in joy under the illumination of the great second seat.

Many adult-oriented recreational activities tend to start in the evening.

In their eyes, the night is a tranquil time that belongs only to them, after all, every witch is a star in the sky.

Therefore, the same witch may exhibit very different personalities during the day and night.

Just like Gu Qingci, who was sitting at the table behind Li Hui, drinking with his head down.

Huh? !

Jiang Kehan ​​couldn't help but rub her eyes. She thought she must be seeing things. How could Gu Qingci have time to come here to drink, especially in broad daylight?

"Have you become a great witch?" Jiang Kehan ​​asked with some doubt.

Seemingly sensing Jiang Kehan's gaze, Gu Qingci looked up and saw the two of them. He raised his eyebrows slightly and looked a bit arrogant.

She waved to Jiang Kehan, gesturing for the two of them to sit down.

Jiang Kehan ​​subconsciously shrank her head. Although she hadn't failed any courses with the other person this semester, she always ended up looking disheveled and screaming in pain every time she attended a duel with the other person.

It really did cause her some stress.

She gently patted Li Hui's shoulder and whispered in his ear.

"Teacher Gu asked us to come and sit down."

After saying that, she took Li Hui's small hand and walked towards Gu Qingci's location.

After the two were seated, Gu Qingci snapped his fingers and, in a showy manner, pulled two beautiful crystal glasses out of thin air from his pocket, then tossed them into the air and caught them back.

Finally, like a dealer dealing cards, the crystal glass is swung across the table to the two people, landing precisely in front of their hands.

"Would you like some drinks, ladies?" She narrowed her eyes slightly and smiled casually.

She actually laughed?

Is this still the same serious-faced, delicate woman I remember, who seemed to lack the ability to love?

Jiang Kehan ​​took the cup somewhat absentmindedly and nodded subconsciously.

Li Hui, on the other hand, seemed much more at ease, looking at the wine in the other person's hand with some curiosity.

She skipped more classes with him than they met, but she didn't think anything was wrong with it.

"Is this a bitter wine?"

"Of course, don't you think duelists like us are best suited for this kind of wine that is bitter at first but sweet later and always full of aroma?"

Gu Qingci obediently pointed the bottle at the wine glass and poured wine for the two of them.

Witches take everything edible seriously and would never play with food, including drinks.

However, the more important reason is that this bottle of astringent wine is a collector's edition, and even Gu Qingci doesn't have many of them.

Jiang Kehan's lips twitched, and she looked at Gu Qingci with some curiosity and asked.

"Miss Gu, what are you doing here? I remember you've been very busy lately."

Gu Qingci covered her face and spoke with a hint of despair.

"I'd like to go back to training, but it's my shift today, sigh."

So you work here now? Jiang Kehan ​​stared wide-eyed at the wine in the other person's glass, unable to understand what the other person was doing here.

This is so leisurely!

Li Hui knew perfectly well why the other party was here, and joked.

"Well, that's what happens when you're one of the Witch's Tavern's stars, a big celebrity."

Looking at Jiang Kehan's increasingly puzzled face, she took a sip of the astringent wine in her glass. The bitter taste vanished in an instant, followed by a rich aroma and a slight sweetness.

"Kehan ​​knows that the departments behind the Witch Tavern that provide funding are the Witch Committee and the ASIU Witch Inspection Committee, right?"

Jiang Kehan ​​also took a sip of wine, just like Li Hui, but the bitterness made her stick out her tongue, which made her look rather cute.

"Yes, yes, the ASIU Witch Inspection Commission is the department responsible for monitoring the physical and mental health of witches and preventing witch crimes."

Therefore, witch taverns, which can effectively help witches vent their emotions, are the main investment they make.

The Witch Committee valued the foot traffic at the Witch's Tavern and was committed to investing in talented witches, so the deal fell into place quickly.

But she still looked at Gu Qingci with some doubt. These two departments were official and didn't interfere much with witch duels.

Li Hui smiled and kept everyone in suspense.

"Does Kehan ​​know that the Witch's Tavern is actually an official department at the same level as these two departments?"

Huh? Jiang Kehan ​​was a little surprised. This tavern was actually an official institution?

She honestly shook her head, waiting for Li Hui's explanation.

Li Hui looked at Gu Qingci and smiled as she spoke: "Actually, the Witch's Tavern is still the face of the local government. When great witches from other places come, the tavern's members will entertain them."

Furthermore, many large-scale events are handled by the Witch's Tavern staff, which can be simply understood as a department that integrates publicity, hospitality, and investment.

Gu Qingci looked at the witch catching up on sleep behind the counter with a hint of melancholy in her eyes.
