Vivian looked at the female astrologer who ran in front of her after a 100-meter sprint.
If I had to describe it, the feeling the other party gave the little girl at this moment was like someone who had been hungry for an unknown number of days and suddenly saw a table of sumptuous meals filled with aroma.
"that..."
"Miss, let's do astrology. It only costs five gold coins!" the female astrologer said eagerly, even interrupting Vivian's words.
After getting closer and taking a closer look, the little wolf cub discovered that the female astrologer seemed to be young, and her face had a childish look similar to Vivian's.
She has purple-blue hair, most of which is hidden under the wide brim of her hat. The exposed part is combed into two long braids at the back, and an unknown pendant is tied to each end.
The female astrologer's beautiful brown eyes, like stars, stared closely at Vivian.
After some observation, Liao Zixuan had to say that he had reason to suspect that some of the crowd surrounding the female astrologer just now were not out of curiosity about divination, but simply for the girl herself.
Unlike the little wolf cub in her arms, who stayed aloof and had the leisure to observe her appearance, Vivian was shocked as soon as the astrology girl opened her mouth.
"Five... five gold coins!?" The little girl even raised her voice a few points, which shows how unacceptable it is.
The female astrologer opposite suddenly became panicked when she saw Vivian like this.
She quickly said remedially:
"Then...I'll give you a discount, five silver coins? Five copper coins? Five...free, free is fine, as long as you let me help you divine once!"
The astrology girl quoted several prices in succession, and in the end, she even offered it for free. It could be seen that she seemed to be extremely persistent in Vivian.
Others begged her to do a divination for them, but when it came to Vivian, it was like she was begging the little girl to get a divination for her.
"this..."
The situation in front of her was beyond the scope of Vivian's judgment. She was just about to seek the wolf cub's meaning, but there was another voice. As if she had finally recovered from the rapidly developing situation, she hurriedly spoke:
"It doesn't count! We don't count our lives!"
Zhao Jie, the Guili businessman, directly rejected the astrology girl on behalf of the little girl. In desperation, he even smoothed it over and said that they were in similar professions as Guili.
"It's not fortune telling, it's divination, astrology!" As expected, the girl emphasized and corrected her very carefully.
But Zhao Jie waved his hands repeatedly.
"We don't need astrology either, Miss Vivian, let's go."
After Zhao Jie finished speaking, he slapped the little girl with colors and motioned for her to follow him and leave here quickly.
Vivian couldn't make up her mind for a moment, and with the wolf cub in her arms, she didn't say anything at this time, so she followed Zhao Jie to leave the deck.
But who would have thought that the female astrologer became anxious when she saw Vivian was about to leave. In her excitement, she actually blocked the little girl.
"Miss, please think about it again. Really, I think you need astrology, because I can feel that there is something special about you..."
Before the astrology girl finished speaking, she was interrupted by Zhao Jie.
"What are you doing! I'm warning you, this is the Astorogis, and the lady next to me is a friend of Lord Luzi. If you want to buy or sell by force, I'll call you!"
While Zhao Jie gave a stern warning, the commotion here did attract the attention of several Thousand Island warriors in charge of security on the deck, who were already approaching here.
Zhao Jie's words made the astrology girl calm down a lot, and she finally got out of the way and stopped entangled, but her shouting still didn't stop.
"Miss! Miss! If you change your mind, you must remember to come to me at any time! My room is in the cabin on the second floor, the fifth room to the left in the corridor! Miss...Miss!"
After leaving the deck and returning to the interior of the Astrologis, the voice of the astrologer girl shouting at the top of her lungs finally disappeared from her ears.
"that..."
"Miss Vivian, believe me, the person just now is definitely a liar!" Zhao Jie knew what the little girl wanted to say and answered first.
"But, she later said it was free..."
"Huh, free!? We who do business all know that free is the most expensive. I am very familiar with this kind of scammer. Don't listen to what she says. It's good, but actually wait until she has finished telling you a fortune. After that, they will suddenly change their tune and ask for huge amounts of money. At that time, even if we want to find excuses, we will have no place to talk!"
"Besides, why were so many people trying to settle with her just now? Why did she refuse so hard? Why did her attitude suddenly change when she saw you, Miss Vivian, as if she was eager to beg you for a divination? , is it possible, Miss Vivian, that you still have some great luck that is rare to see in a century? Do you feel itchy if you don’t do divination? "
Zhao Jie taught the little girl like he was experienced and had seen through everything a long time ago.
But Vivian showed an expression that seemed to understand.
"Yuan, is that really what happened?" After thinking about it carefully, the little girl felt that what Zhao Jie said did make sense.
Because to be honest, when the astrology girl said it was free, Vivian was really a little tempted. Now it seems, is it just bait? She did almost bite him. If the other party really changed his mind later, she would have no choice but to let others take advantage of her.
When I think of this...
"Thank you so much, Mr. Zhao Jie." Vivian thanked her sincerely.
"Everywhere, when you go out, you have to rely on friends to help each other. It's okay." Zhao Jie waved his hand and laughed, very cheerfully.
"Speaking of which, Miss Vivian, do you have any plans for the next time?"
"Not yet... not yet. I just take Xiao Hei and wander around the boat casually." Vivian shook her head.
Zhao Jie slapped his thigh.
"That's not as good as this. Miss Vivian, the restaurant on the Astrologis is said to bring together delicacies from all over the world and is beautifully decorated. It is a must-experience project. I think it's almost time for lunch now. Let me, Lao Zhao, treat you as a treat, just to celebrate the friend we have made!"
"Ah, how about that..." Vivian waved her hands repeatedly when she heard that others wanted to treat her.
"It's okay, it's okay. I'm also the shopkeeper of the Chamber of Commerce after all... Oh, the shopkeeper means he's almost the owner. I still have a small amount of money to treat Miss Vivian to a meal."
"What's more... to be honest, I have been doing business abroad all year round. It was fine at first, but as time went on, I missed my hometown more and more. Miss Vivian, do you know that the first time I saw you? , I feel particularly close to you, because you remind me of my daughter in Guili."
"I think back then, when I went abroad for business, she had just entered elementary school. Now, in terms of age, she should be almost the same as Miss Vivian! Ah, but of course, if she can be half as capable as you, Miss, I will do this Father’s, you can wake up laughing in your dreams!”
Zhao Jie shook his head, with an expression of reminiscence on his weathered face.
The other party has said so, and Vivian has no reason to refuse anymore, and considering that they have not eaten since they arrived at Akabane Port, even if she is fine, Xiao Hei is probably hungry.
After agreeing, the two walked towards the restaurant on the first floor.
But just as he was going down the stairs, a small accident happened again.
"Ms. Vivian, let me give you a recommendation, boiled fish. This dish is very delicious. You must try it later..." Zhao Jie was interrupted by a noise midway through his chat on the way to the restaurant.
Bang!
It looked like something heavy had hit the floor. Gu Qiu
Then, the sound of scolding came quickly.
"You bastard! Can't you even carry something!? Do you know that these are the guests' belongings? If they are broken, you people will never be able to afford the compensation in your lifetime!"
Vivian followed the sound and found that it was two or three coolies. One of them had a heavy box in his arms that fell to the ground, but fortunately it was filled with books.
The Thousand Island Samurai, who looked like a crew member, was probably their lead overseer and was angrily yelling at the coolie who had messed up.
"Hey! I'm talking to you, did you hear me? Hurry up and put everything away. Why are you standing there in a daze?"
I saw that the coolie who had dropped something was looking directly in the direction of Vivian and the others, and what was even more surprising was...
This coolie was wearing a tattered windbreaker and a hood on his head, covering almost his entire appearance, even his face...
Covered in bandages?
Perhaps the only thing that can be seen is the coolie's eyes.
Just when the little wolf cub in Vivian's arms wanted to take another look at this strange coolie, the overseer warrior was so angry that he kicked him fiercely.
At this moment, the coolie seemed to wake up from a dream. The other party quickly looked away, and then without saying a word, he began to squat on the ground and collect the scattered transportation things.
"It's really unlucky. If I had known you were so clumsy, I shouldn't have chosen you in the first place. Let me tell you, your food will be gone tonight, so go hungry."
When the coolie picked up the carrying items again, he disappeared from the sight of several people with the curses of the overseer warrior.
"Hey, these coolies are really not easy. They can only stay at the bottom of the cabin, do the most tiring work, get the lowest wages, and have to be scolded and beaten everywhere."
Zhao Jie felt a little sympathetic to the scene just now and sighed.
"The lowest level of the cabin? Isn't there only three floors?" Vivian asked.
"The third floor is for us ship passengers, but for the coolies, they are not allowed to move around at will and can only stay with the cargo."
"The so-called cargo compartment at the bottom, I've been there once. It was really dirty and smelly, like a pig's nest, and it was shaking very violently. I stayed there for a few seconds and almost vomited."
"I can't imagine how those coolies survived. Hey, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go quickly. I'm already hungry."
After this little episode, Zhao Jie was indeed true to his word. Although the little girl resisted several times, he still paid the bill for the treat and specially ordered boiled fish. Vivian tasted this foreign dish and it was indeed very good.
After the meal, after chatting for a while, the two separated. Vivian packed a meal and returned to her cabin.
After opening the door, Xin Yan was still sleeping soundly. In the Nirvana stage, she mainly relied on sleep to restore her strength. After being dragged up by Vivian and forced to eat something, she fell back to sleep.
I don't know if it was due to the influence of Xin Yan. Not only Vivian but also Liao Zixuan was a little sleepy. The little wolf cub found a comfortable position on the sofa, narrowed his eyes and started to take a nap.
Before going to bed, the little girl sorted out her belongings and sorted out all the important items such as "Elina's Notebook", "Vulcan Cult Certificate" and so on, before she felt at ease.
Originally, she wanted to put it back in its original place, but on a sudden thought, Vivian took out "Alina's notebook" from the package and started recording what she saw on the ship today on a new page.
What the little girl wants is to share it with everyone in Huodian City.
But after writing and writing...
snap...
The pen slipped from Vivian's fingertips and fell to the ground with a crisp sound. The little girl's head rested on the table, and her hands hung weakly on her sides.
It's like... I fell asleep as I wrote and wrote.
At this point, one person and two beasts in the room all fell into sleep, and a strange silence filled the room.
Not long after.
The window was completely shrouded in night, the dark room, the doorway...
Crunchy...
The door handle was turned by someone from the outside. The other person seemed to have a key and easily opened Vivian's room and walked in.
Under such a strange situation, the little wolf cub sleeping on the sofa naturally noticed it. No, it should be said that he didn't notice it until this step?
But what's even more surprising is...
Liao Zixuan really wanted to open his eyes, but his eyelids seemed as heavy as lead, and his limbs could not use any strength at all. Even if he forced himself to cheer up, he could only open his eyes slightly, and saw a person blurred in the dark night. The dark shadow walked towards Vivian.
Zhizhi!
Xin Yan was awakened and made a harsh cry, trying to wake up Vivian and the wolf cub, but neither responded. She wanted to attack the strange intruder, but...
In Liao Zixuan's blurred vision, he only saw fire and... a sickle, a black sickle.
Is...Is Vivian awake?
Endless sleepiness swept over Liao Zixuan, eroding his sanity and making him unable to think any more.
Immediately afterwards, there was a sense of body tearing, as if sinking into the deep sea, extremely suffocating, and as if falling from a high altitude, feeling weightless and dizzy.
The last thing Liao Zixuan heard was the sound in the room.
"Death, witch."
as well as...
exclamations seconds later.
"This...this is!?"
...
...
The refreshing sea breeze, the fresh air, the salty smell of the sea, and... the warm and comfortable embrace of the little girl.
When Liao Zixuan regained consciousness again, all the lost strength in his body returned. He felt like a drowning person being rescued from the shore. He suddenly woke up and opened his eyes.
But what the little wolf cub saw was...
On the deck in the bright afternoon, the female astrologer had an extremely excited face.
as well as...
Her excited and expectant voice.
"Miss, do you want...an astrology test?"
