"How much does this bed sheet cost?"

"15 copper coins."

"Where's this quilt?"

"20 copper coins."

"The two add up to 10 copper coins. Should I sell them?"

???

"Little girl, don't amuse me here. Each piece is sold for more than 10 copper coins. Are you exaggerating in your bargaining?"

Nora squatted in front of a stall, and Ron stood behind, not intending to interfere.

The vendor looked at Nora like a fool, pretending to be angry.

Nora snorted coldly, "Don't think I don't know. The price of the things here usually doesn't exceed 10 copper coins. You just raised the price randomly because we are well-dressed, right?"

"I used to work here. You guys know my details. Can I sell the 10 copper coins? If not, I'll find another place."

The vendor knew what was going on, so he mumbled a few words and "reluctantly" sold a set of bedding to Nora.

Nora picked up the sheets and quilts without being too heavy, turned around and looked at Ron, and raised his head with difficulty. "Store manager, I have bought them."

The two of them walked around Chengdong Street for more than half an hour, and Nora bought himself a new set of clothes and shoes.

Now I bought a new set of bed sheets and quilt cover, plus the previous ramen money, it only cost a few dozen copper coins in total.

Not even a silver coin.

It can be said that he is quite diligent and thrifty.

Ron stretched out his hand and pressed it on the quilt, taking it into his own system Inventory.

"Is there anything else you want to buy?"

"No more, so I plan to buy these." Nora shook his head, and then asked curiously, "Doesn't the store manager have anything to buy?"

"Oh... yes." Ron was stunned for a moment, and then he realized that he said he wanted to come with Nora yesterday just because he said he also wanted to buy something.

Of course, this is just a temporary excuse to date Nora.

But he actually did have something to buy.

"Is there anyone selling pots around here? It's best to have handles on both sides and be bigger."

"Eh?" Nora was stunned for a moment. He didn't understand why the store manager bought the pot, but he still said, "Yeah, I know where it is."

"There is also an iron stove, the kind that makes a fire underneath and puts the pot on top. The height should be about the same as the dining table in our living room." Ron added.

Nora probably understood what the store manager meant and immediately showed him the way.

Ten minutes later, Ron was very satisfied and took the pot and iron stove into Inventory. He didn't bother to bargain, just paid and left.

Nora looked at the few silver coins that the store manager threw to the vendor, and as he left, he was still muttering, "The store manager is not willing to bargain, I can help, at least I can cut off half of it..."

Ron laughed and shook his head, not arguing with her about this.

He still has tens of thousands of gold coins lying around in Gold Depository. How can he care about this?

You have more money than you can spend, so why waste your time on haggling.

If he hadn't seen Nora looking cute while bargaining, he would have just paid for her directly.

However, considering that this was the first time Nora used the salary earned from the store to buy something, he did not interfere.

The little girl has quite a strong sense of self-esteem. Ron reckons that paying for her will only make the other party unhappy.

"What did the store manager buy these things for?" Nora followed behind Ron, timidly stretched out his hand and continued to grab the hem of his clothes, and then asked curiously.

"I plan to get it in the store. Once I think about it, I can have hot pot in the future." Ron chuckled.

It is late autumn now and winter is about to begin.

By then, snowflakes are falling outside the window and the north wind is blowing.

He and Nora were sitting at the dining table, boiling mutton around the stove, and eating hot pot in single clothes. Isn't it wonderful?

"What is hot pot?" Nora was confused.

"It's just putting undercooked food into a pot of boiling water and eating it while it's cooking..." Ron said, "It's hard to explain this, but you'll know after I finish it in the next few days."

At this moment, the system's voice sounded in Ron's mind.

System: "A Tier Six assassin is located in front of the host."

Ron suddenly felt a chill in his heart.

Is it finally here...?

After shopping with Nora for so long, he almost forgot about it.

After hearing the system prompts, Ron also confirmed one thing again--

Webster is indeed lying.

The only Tier Six assassin is still alive!

On his way back to the shop from the Magic Academy in the previous afternoon, he was not attacked by an assassin, but now the Tier Six assassin appeared again.

Perhaps when Webster took action to kill two other fifth-level assassins, the Tier Six assassin did not notice them.

As a result, he saw Ron leaving Magic Academy alone in the afternoon, but he did not notice the aura of the other two colleagues, which made him wary, so he did not take action rashly?

Ron calmed down, and for safety's sake, he stretched out his left hand behind him and held Nora's little hand.

"Eh? Store... store manager..."

Nora blushed furiously and panicked, but did not pull his hand back. Finally, there was no sound.

As the system prompted that the assassin was getting closer and closer, Ron took Nora to a small stall and asked for two cocoa cakes.

"You wait here until the cake is ready, and I'll buy something to drink." Ron let go of Nora's hand and warned with a smile.

"... Hmm."

The little hand lost its warm grip, which made Nora feel a little disappointed, and then he felt shy again in his heart.

Nora stood obediently in front of the stall, watching the vendor making cocoa cake on the spot, and occasionally looked at Ron's back.

Ron actually walked a few meters away and bought two glasses of juice from a vendor at a stall next door.

After confirming that the assassin was coming straight towards him, Ron felt a little relieved.

Although the system has guaranteed the absolute power of Bursting Vitality, when receiving a sneak attack, Ron still hopes to stay as far away from Nora as possible to prevent the assassin from affecting Nora.

And now, the assassin is close to behind Ron.

His disguise skills are superb.

If it had not been directly exposed by the system's dimensionality reduction strike, even Professor Hicks, who is also Tier Six, would not have been able to discover the assassin's assassination intention if he had not used screening magic in advance.

On the surface, the assassin's face looked very ordinary, he looked about thirty or forty years old, and he looked like he was wandering around on the street.

He was holding a candied haws in his hand that he had just bought from a stall, and was walking forward aimlessly while eating.

When he was close to the target Ron, the candied haws had just finished eating.

He took the wooden pick to pick his teeth and came to the back of Ron.

The jet-black fighting spirit clung to the wooden stick, and the assassin sneered in his heart, and was about to extend the wooden stick to pierce Ron's back.

Then.

He found that he couldn't move.

The vitality in the body seemed to be extracted from the body, or as if it was being crazily sucked out by something in the body.

I couldn't move my legs out, and something seemed to grow out of the soles of my feet, directly puncturing the soles of my shoes.

The wooden stick in his hand fell to the ground.

He clearly saw that his hands were slowly becoming stiff and dry.

Branch after branch grows from the palm of the arm.

The assassin's face was full of horror, but he couldn't scream.

"Ah!"

The surrounding crowd screamed in surprise.

People dispersed like birds and beasts.

Diary of Pujie: In the afternoon, I changed the cat's litter, washed the cat's litter box, then cleaned its climbing cabinet and cat nest, swept and mopped the floor, gave the cat a bath, and almost didn't finish coding...
