It didn't take much effort to enter the city, and Nok and the two found Sophia's whereabouts.
Alice Hotel.
That's right, it's the Alice Hotel that requires Golden Adventurers to redeem their qualifications for stay.
Although Sophia is not a gold adventurer, the things Nok and Leo exchanged can be used by others.
Therefore, when Leo learned that Sophia was coming to the royal city,
Not only did he redeem her admission to the Alice Hotel,
He also transferred the 4,900 gold coins on his card to Sophia's card.
Afraid that she would suffer.
The two of them did not go to Sophia directly, but took out the accommodation qualifications that Nok had redeemed.
Checked in at the front desk at nine o'clock.
But Nok made a small request and chose the room number by himself.
So Nok moved in opposite Sophia as a guest.
Leo lives with Nok as a bodyguard.
The two of them washed off the dust from the road, put on new clothes and went out.
In the hotel lobby downstairs, Nok met Sophia who came back from outside.
But at this time, Sophia was dressed like a rich girl,
Leo looked a little dazed.
Especially her proud figure set off by the half-sleeved Lolita skirt,
Become more dazzling.
This can be seen from the behavior of the men in the hall how charming she is.
Nok, who originally planned to go to the Adventurer's Guild to get some information,
He led Leo directly towards Sophia.
"Oh, beautiful lady, this is Jack Rice. Is it my pleasure to get to know the lady?"
Nok looked like a playboy and stood in front of Sophia.
This scene caused angry expressions to appear on the faces of the men in the hall who had been peeking at Sophia.
They haven't taken action yet, where did this playboy come from!
Just when all the men thought that Nok was going to be rejected,
Sophia looked at Nok up and down, and said with a sweet smile: "Handsome Mr. Rice, Tina is honored to meet you.
However, Tina has something to do and has to go back to her room, so she may not be able to accompany her. "
Nok took the initiative to walk to Sophia and put his arms around Sophia's waist.
He said frivolously to Sophia, who was a little surprised: "It's good to go back to the room. If Miss Tina doesn't mind,
We can get to know each other slowly in the room. Jack loves meeting new people the most. "
"Keke, Mr. Rice is really bold! But, I like it. So please?"
With that said, Sophia broke away from Nok's hand and strode towards the stairs.
When Nok saw this, he whistled and raised his eyebrows provocatively at the men around him.
He took Leo and chased after him.
"Tch, she turns out to be a social butterfly! Vulgar."
"It's just that at first glance, she doesn't look like a serious woman. We are clean men."
There was an atmosphere of "sour grapes" pervading the hall.
Although Nok and Sophia were despised by everyone,
But it didn't attract much attention.
After all, the things between men and women are consensual, so it’s no big deal.
What's more, this is a romantic city, as long as it is "true love",
Don't care whose wife it is, just love her bravely.
Is there still little such pursuit of "true love" in aristocratic circles?
However, a top-notch woman like Sophia who carries a murderous weapon,
It is still rare, which makes those men who start late feel a little regretful.
In this way, Nok and Sophia, who were mistaken for hooking up, took their guard Leo,
Entered Sophia's room.
lock the door,
Nok's frivolous temperament suddenly subsided,
Sophia also put away her charming look.
Nok couldn't wait to speak: "What happened? Where is Jasmine now?"
Sophia walked to the closet with a headache, opened the closet, found a coat and put it on.
After covering her body, she opened her mouth to answer Nok's question.
"Father Ryan, don't worry. Things are a bit complicated. I originally wanted to find out more information.
I didn't expect you to come so quickly. There are some things I haven't found out yet. Listen to me and tell you slowly. "
Then, Sophia began to tell the news she knew.
It turns out that when Sophia first arrived in Paris, she acted very low-key.
By visiting the streets and alleys and various pubs,
I want to inquire about the actions of Freya and others after returning to the royal city.
and the whereabouts of Father Molière.
Unexpectedly, the information I wanted to inquire about was fruitless.
But I heard unexpected news.
In a tavern frequented by adventurers, she heard unexpected news.
A group of drunk adventurers said something at the celebration banquet.
The mission they completed this time was to serve as a guard for a slave merchant.
Escort a group of slaves to Paris for auction!
If it was just such news, Sophia would not pay attention at all.
After all, the slave trade is legal in many countries.
Slave auction houses were once a legal industry that traded slaves as commodities.
Slavery is an important phenomenon today.
Slaves were considered property and could be bought and sold freely by their owners.
Slaves usually come from war, pirate raids, debt bondage, family inheritance, etc.
Slave auction houses were usually held in public markets, much like modern commodity markets.
Slaves were displayed in the marketplace for inspection and purchase.
Once a slave was sold, the buyer could take the slave home and use it as his or her own property.
However, this auction system, with the progress of society and forced by moral public opinion,
Those in power in various countries have covered the slave trade with a fig leaf.
There is a special trading market for the slave trade,
They are generally set up in the dirtiest slums of the city.
If supplies are in short supply,
Slave traders could even abduct, steal, and coax poor people into becoming their slaves in slums.
Obviously, this adventure team, the so-called escort mission,
It is the task of transporting slaves.
Sophia is not interested in slaves and is about to leave,
But she heard news that forced her to stay.
There was a drunk guy who suddenly cursed and mentioned a girl they picked up outside Seine City.
Said that they almost failed the mission because of that girl.
As soon as this person mentioned it, the others started scolding each other, blaming a certain guy for being nosy and shouldn't have picked up the girl in the first place.
As a result, the person being accused was unconvinced and retorted that if he hadn't picked up the girl, how could they have made a lot of money off of that girl?
He also cursed the girl and lied to them that his family had an Adventurer's Guild in Tarn Village.
It’s really hilarious.
I have never heard of the Adventure Guild opening a branch in the village.
Finally, the man cursed that the girl wanted to save the slaves, so they sold her to the slave traders in the caravan.
Let her be a slave for the rest of her life and see how she can ruin their good deeds.
The ugly faces of a group of people,
It made everyone around him look disgusted.
But Sophia happened to hear the words Tarn Village and the little girl,
In addition, there is also an adventurers' guild,
This information is very similar to the information on Little Jasmine that Nok ordered to investigate.
So, Sophia wanted to buy slaves for the adventure group,
Start chatting with that adventuring party.
Finally, I used the treat to find out the information I wanted.
What the little girl's name was, they didn't know.
But the little girl did claim to be from the village of Tarn and was picked up while they were camping near Seine City.
When we picked her up, it was at night. The little girl seemed to be fleeing and was unconscious outside their camp.
There was something special about this girl, and they sold her for a big price.
No matter how much information there is, this adventure team didn’t say it, and they don’t know whether they don’t know it or they can’t say it.
Anyway, even though they were drunk, they didn't mention any other information about the girl.
Instead, Sophia found out the name of the auction house where these slaves were auctioned.
Boutique Auction House.
An auction house that claims to only sell fine products.
The name is a bit vulgar,
But it’s simple, easy to understand, and easy to remember.
So, in order to investigate whether the girl was the little Jasmine that Nok and the two were looking for.
Sophia took out the Alice Hotel admission ticket that Leo gave her before leaving.
Dressed up as a rich lady and moved in.
I have no choice but to participate in the auction at a boutique auction house.
Admission tickets are required.
Admission tickets are not for sale to the public.
Only given to regular customers.
Of course, get tickets through regular customers,
After completing a transaction, you will automatically become a "regular customer" of the auction house.
The auction house will automatically notify and send out tickets for the next auction.
Therefore, Sophia’s pseudonym was Tina Gareth,
The daughter of an upstart businessman from Champagne,
Started to wander around the rich ladies in Wangcheng,
Trying to find someone who can take her to the auction.
But Sophia underestimated her lethality;
The rich lady in the royal capital is very hostile to Sophia, the upstart outsider.
Even if Sophia deliberately tried to please her, she would only receive strange ridicule.
On the contrary, those rich men treated Sophia like bees to flowers.
I wish I could surround her.
Sophia almost became a public enemy in the Wangcheng Miss Circle!
Sophia was even considering whether to contact the men who were eligible to participate in the auction.
If Nok and the two hadn't arrived in time, Sophia might have suffered a loss.
After all, she is a careless woman who only knows how to take risks.
Who would be the opponent of those veterans of Huazong.
I'm just afraid that I'll have no place to cry after suffering a loss.
After listening to Sophia's explanation, the two of them understood the current situation.
Nok's eyes were a little cold, and he asked coldly: "In other words,
What kind of boutique auction house is Little Jasmine in now? And being controlled as a slave? "
Sophia didn't understand why Nok had murderous intention.
But he still answered honestly: "Probably so. I'm not sure about that.
However, I also heard one thing. "
"What's the matter? Tell me!" Nok's tone was a bit unkind.
Sophia said cautiously: "After my investigation, the boss behind the boutique auction house,
It seems to be the Jim Victor we know. "
"boom!"
Nok smashed the table in front of him with a slap and roared: "He is looking for death!"
"Noak! Calm down!"
Leo stepped forward to hold his hand and persuaded, "Don't make too much noise, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble."
“Also, if Jasmine is really in Victor’s hands, then we must not expose her, otherwise Jasmine will be in danger.
It will also make it more difficult for us to rescue Jasmine!
If you want to save Jasmine, just calm down! "
Leo's words finally persuaded Nok.
Nok blushed, panted, and sat on the sofa in the room unwillingly.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door.
The three of them were stunned for a moment, and Sophia reacted.
He was about to get up and open the door, but was stopped by Nok.
"I come!"
Nok tugged on his clothes and pulled the collar a little messier.
Then he angrily walked behind the door, opened a crack in the door, and stuck his head out.
I saw a waiter standing outside the door.
When he saw Nok opening the door, he immediately smiled.
But before he could speak, Nok asked angrily: "Knock on what!"
Facing Nok's question, the waiter's expression froze and he secretly said: Not good.
But he remembered the complaints from other guests, bit the bullet and said with a smile:
"Um, dear guest, the guest downstairs complained that there was some noise in your room.
In order to avoid accidents, I came to take a look. "
Nok glared at the waiter in displeasure and cursed: "Are you sick?
What's wrong with the young master and the woman? How dare you come to disturb this young master!
roll! ! ! "
"boom!"
Nok retracted his head behind the door and closed the door heavily.
The waiter was upset and left in a bad mood.
Along the way, he cursed the guests who were looking for trouble, causing him to get scolded.
The people who live here are either rich or noble, who can he mess with? Everyone come out to play,
It’s common for people to take their lovers out for an affair, and this is not a strange thing at the Alice Hotel.
The waiter has even seen her husband take his lover to a hotel room and end it.
When I went out, I saw my wife opposite who had just finished having an affair with her lover.
The two of them made a tacit agreement without saying a word, and left with their lovers.
Later on, the couple just got into trouble and came together every time.
Then open two adjacent rooms and bring their respective lovers into the room.
Then, it was like a competition, causing the guests in the surrounding rooms to complain.
In the end, the couple was blocked by Alice and refused to move in.
Only then did the employees realize that the two were actually a couple!
Therefore, from then on, if there are men and women working together, the news will be a little bigger.
They don't care about Alice Hotel.
As long as it doesn't go too far, it's usually about appeasing the emotions of other guests.
Instead of messing with business guests.
After all, it's always unpleasant if someone interrupts you in this kind of thing.
So, Nok relied on his acting skills to get away with smashing the table.
The worst case scenario is that if you are discovered later, you can just say that it was caused by working too hard, which can be regarded as an excuse.
After sending the waiter away, Nok returned to his seat.
By this time he had regained his former composure.
