[Written by myself after drinking too much, randomly dropped when I am in a good mood]
One evening at dusk, the devil-hunting police officer Hayden walked into a small Qingqing bar called "Ji Zhou" in a corner of the city that never sleeps.
This is the place Hayden hangs out most in his spare time.
It was here that he met the owner of the bar, a demonic young man who looked gentle but behaved frivolously.
He was the best bartender Hayden had ever seen. Both the bartending skills and the way we treat guests are impeccable.
But Hayden knew that the store manager was good at much more than just bartending——
"Officer Hayden, are you here for a drink today or are you here to handle a case?"
——Yes, this seemingly frivolous devil store manager actually possesses an extremely extraordinary talent for reasoning.
Whenever a case reaches a deadlock and the investigation encounters a bottleneck, Hayden will always come to "Ji Zhi" to sit down and ask the talented bartender for advice.
On that day, Hayden, as usual, sat down at the bar closest to the bartending table and reached for his briefcase.
But this time, what he took out was neither a wallet nor a portfolio, but a bright police pistol.
As if he had expected this scene to happen, the devil store manager slowly raised his hands and looked at Hayden with lazily arced eyes, not showing the slightest hint of fear in his eyes.
"Officer, I'm just an ordinary bartender. What's your purpose of pulling out your gun on me?"
"A common bartender, huh?"
Hayden held the trigger with his index finger and pointed the gun at the demon's brow.
"——Then I want to ask you, why did the military advisor who protected the Demon King's escape during the last beheading operation look exactly like you?"
*****
Due to his father's suicide note, the young demon bartender Lach had to put on a mask and act in harmony, living a life of walking a tightrope between humans and demons.
He tried his best to play the role of the best bartender in the city that never sleeps, the most trusted criminal investigation consultant of the police detectives, and the most capable aide under the Demon King.
Due to long-term nervous tension, various psychological diseases have followed one after another: insomnia, post-traumatic stress, schizophrenia... Lage often feels like a trapped animal struggling in the mud, and will be swallowed up by the turbid current under his feet if he is not careful.
——Until the light shines into his cold world.
The man who opened the store door was a demon hunter from the police station. This identity is precisely the best target for Lach to spy on.
At first, Lach just deliberately approached with the idea of using him. But he never expected that Mr. Police Officer's seemingly cold appearance actually contained a fiery heart.
"It seems that the flirting was a bit too much..."
By the time Rah realized something was wrong, their relationship seemed to have spiraled out of control.
Although he knew that one day, the police officer would expose his identity like his colleagues, confront him with a gun, and eventually be killed by his hands.
But Lage still hopes that day will come later. This fictional dream can be longer, longer...
Therefore, whenever the door of "Ji Zui" is pushed open, Rach will greet him with a smile as usual——
"Officer Hayden, are you here for a drink today or are you here to handle a case?"
