Chapter 7 Jasmine Fragrance(1/2)

Dai Er jumped off the garbage boat and swam to the shore.

Not far away is the garbage boat docked on the river bank. The lights there are as bright as daytime, and a large group of waste pickers are gathering there.

Dai'er avoided the scavengers and got into a group of reeds and came ashore. Although her clothes were soaked and her hair was stuck with water plants, she was in an unusually good mood. Looking in the direction of the uptown area, there were magic signals exploding in the sky from time to time.

Very beautiful.

No one would have thought that this princess has already reached the Lower City. Just look for her there. I will hide here for a few days and then find a way to leave.

Gululu...

My stomach growls.

Dai'er then remembered that she hadn't eaten since visiting Qingkong until now. After running such a long distance, it would be strange not to be hungry.

When Dai'er was observing her position and thinking about where to get something to eat, a glowing butterfly flew down from above. It circled around Dai'er and danced gracefully, with light spots like fireflies on its wings.

.

Seeing such a beautiful butterfly, Del couldn't help but stretched out her hand and let the butterfly fall on her finger.

Then the butterfly dispersed into a stardust and disappeared.

broken!

At this time, Dai'er realized that this was a magic butterfly used for tracking. Its appearance meant that her whereabouts were exposed. People who were following her could return at any time and must leave as soon as possible.

Del pulled out her magic wand and wanted to release the magic to erase the traces she left, but a dagger stretched out from behind and was placed on her neck.

"Miss, don't move! My knife is very fast."

Dai'er's body became stiff instantly. She had never encountered such a situation before. She had very good grades in practical classes, but she was not aware of the approach of the person behind her. He was a very scary guy.

"who are you?"

"It doesn't matter who I am. I'm very curious about who you are and why you asked my husband to come here so late to wait for you."

The man behind reached out and took away the magic wand in Dai'er's hand, and then threw it into the darkness ahead. The magic wand was caught by a hand before it hit the ground, and then a very well-dressed young man walked out of the shadows.

"Sticko sedimentary wood is used as a pole, and the unicorn forehead mane magic core is used as the main spell. The 24th edition of Shining Glory is used as the main spell, and it is an encrypted complete version. There are one hundred and twenty-four jasmine flowers carved on it, each shape

It’s different. Each flower is a sub-art embedded in the main art.” The young man twirled Dai’er’s magic wand with his fingers and said with a smile: “It’s very beautiful and very valuable. Miss...you have a bit of odor on your body and your stomach.

You must be hungry and need a clean room to rest.

How about this magic wand covering your travel expenses in Xiacheng District?"

Dai'er smelled the scent of her sleeves.

It smells bad.

My stomach was hungry just now, and now it's growling again.

I really need to take a shower, change clothes, eat something and go to bed.

But who is this person in front of me?

"This magic wand is called jasmine. It can not only greatly increase the effectiveness of the magic released, but also the stick-deposited wood is an extremely precious spice. Since it is in your hands now, there is nothing wrong with using it as my travel expense in the lower city.

.

It’s just...who are you? You should know who I am since you followed me here."

The young man turned and walked away, and said: "My name is Luke. I am a purchaser of alchemy materials. I bought a house in the lower town of St. Lun City not long ago. There is no romance here as you imagine, and sharp blades can be used at any time.

Stab you in the heart from behind.

If you don't want to die, just come with me.

By the way, I have another name. Meteor. Does it sound familiar?

Miss Jasmine!"

Dai'er was still thinking about how to escape from this predicament at first, but when she heard the last name spoken by the other party, she covered her mouth and exclaimed: "You, you are the meteor!"

The dagger resting on his neck was retracted.

"Miss Molixiang, my name is Kuaishan, and I am Mr. Luke's attendant. Don't call that name in the lower city, otherwise you will get into a lot of trouble."

Dai'er turned around and glanced at the person behind her, then quickly chased forward, leaving a series of wet footprints. She had no choice but to stay behind and deal with the traces left behind.

Away from the river, Xiacheng District is very quiet in the middle of the night. There are no street lights and only the moonlight brings weak light. The mess here is far beyond Dai'er's imagination of Xiacheng District. Those who don't even have homes huddle in makeshift simple buildings.

In the shack.

Wild dogs are gnawing on something in the garbage.

In the front, a group of people in rags gathered around a burning fire barrel to keep warm. They were holding wine bottles in their hands, laughing and making noise. When these people saw Dai'er, they all cast malicious glances.

The frightened Delia pulled up her collar, lowered her head and ran quickly to Luke's side: "Hey, where are you taking me?"

As Luke walked, he looked at those people with evil intentions. His clothes and demeanor made those little gangsters not dare to be presumptuous.

"Don't ask too much, just come with me. Of course, you can also choose to escape. If Miss Qingkong hadn't entrusted me to find you, I wouldn't care about your life or death.

When I think about marrying such a stupid woman, I would rather she disappear."

"Hey!" Being called stupid made Dai'er very angry. She wanted to refute loudly, but when she noticed that the group of people were looking at her again, she lowered her voice and said: "I admit that I am a bit stupid, but I am not stupid. If it weren't for Sister Qingkong to help you

, you will never find me... Did Sister Qingkong really ask you to come?"

"Believe it or not."

"You and Sister Qingkong both work for Sister Agatha, so I believe you. Just now you said your name is Luke, and you are a purchaser of alchemy materials...

Is this a secret mission assigned to you by Sister Agatha?"

Del, who felt Luke was trustworthy, got closer. And she often heard from Agatha about the secret missions carried out by the Empire's agents. This time she was able to get up close and personal, and it was a mission personally carried out by the Empire's top secret agent, Meteor! It was exciting.

Dai'er was so excited that she completely forgot about the danger she was facing.

Through Qingkong's reception of Dai'er, we know that this princess is a familiar person.

Luke didn't answer Del, and walked forward on his own, thinking about how to deal with this sudden trouble.

It really messed up the whole plan.

When Dai'er saw that Luke was ignoring her, she wisely didn't ask any more questions and just followed him cautiously.

Although Haijiao District of Nutao City is also a slum area, as an old city, there are still necessary public facilities. It also has continuous management by the administrative department, so it can be transformed.

The lower city of St. Lun City was completely formed naturally. The first residents who settled there relied on rivers and drainage to build houses. Later, as the population increased, they radiated to both sides of the water source. Basically there is no overall urban planning, at most there are some powerful people.

Carry out limited management within your own sphere of influence.

What is implemented here is the true law of the jungle, where the strong prevail and the fittest survive.

The day after Luke arrived in the imperial capital, he quietly entered the lower city with his fast legs. He made up a businessman identity for himself, visited several prominent figures here, and became familiar with them.

All that's left is to buy some off-the-beaten-path alchemy materials and mysterious props for Qingkong and himself, and monitor a few interesting research trends.

Everything went smoothly at first, but in the end...

Luke couldn't help but look at Dai Er who was following him, shook his head helplessly and walked into an old small building.

Walking up the creaking building, Luke said to Dale behind him: "This turned out to be the property of a businessman. Later he got rich and wanted to leave here. I entrusted a friend to buy it as a residence to disguise his identity.

.

You live in his daughter's room, there are some old clothes in there that you can change into after taking a shower."

"oh……"

Luke pushed open the door of a room and pressed the switch on the wall. The dim light illuminated a small room. The decoration inside was very girlish, and it was obvious that the businessman loved his daughter very much.

"There is a small bathroom inside. This house has an automatic water filtration system, but there is no hot water. I think this little trouble should not be a trouble for you..."

Along the way, some half-dry clothes made Dai'er feel even more uncomfortable. She couldn't wait to take a shower and change into clean clothes.

"I know how to use magic to heat water. Chief Inspector Meteor, can you go out?

This princess wants to take a bath!"

"Here, my name is Luke, and your name is Jasmine. If you say something wrong, I will throw you into the pig pen next to you."

Faced with Luke's oppression, Dai'er was so frightened that she backed away and hit the wall hard: "I listen to you, Yun... No, it's Mr. Luke."

"That's right..." Luke exited the room: "I'm going to prepare dinner and come down to eat after taking a shower. I still have many things to ask you..."

"Yes, it's Mr. Luke."

Seeing Luke coming downstairs, Del immediately closed the door and inserted all the bolts that could be inserted. Then she leaned on the door, patted her chest, and said in fear: "It's terrible! It's terrible!"

Luke prepared the food for Del in the kitchen on the first floor, and was responsible for cleaning up the traces and watching for the quick legs coming in from behind.

"Sir, everything has been taken care of. No one is following." Kuai Leg picked up the knife to help peel the apple and asked: "Who is this girl? Judging from her clothes and the magic wand, she must have a very noble family background, right?"

Luke knew that Del's identity could not be hidden from Kuaishan, so he said truthfully: "Her name is Del. Augustine."

"Die'er, it's a very nice name. Augustine... Oh..." Kuaiti almost cut off his finger with a knife on his leg: "Chief Inspector, it's not Mr.... Princess Dai'er, she is really Princess Dai'er! Why is she here?

here?

You are not mistaken!"
