"Entrapment----" Fors repeated, "Is it useful?"

"How do I know?" Xio said bluntly, "If you don't want to spend time looking for someone, this is a way to solve the problem."

Fors looked at Lorry, and Lorry nodded lightly.

Seeing this, Fors took a deep breath and asked, "Xiu, have you commissioned a lot recently?"

"No more, no less." Xio gave an answer that could be considered nonsense.

Fors rolled his eyes in his heart and said directly, "Lorry plans to ask me for help with that commission. Do you want to go with him?"

"As for reward----"

When she was thinking about how much compensation to give to her friend, Lorry spoke, "On a weekly basis, the minimum guarantee is 20 pounds.

"Then you will be given additional compensation based on your contribution in the process.

"What do you think?"

Weekly salary of 20 pounds----Not counting the tasks of Miss Audrey, bounties exceeding 10 pounds are rare, and you may not get money for wasting time----

It's really profitable to write novels----it's a pity that I'm not that good at it----With his thoughts swirling, Xio glanced at Lorry, and then at Fors next to him.

She shook her head without hesitation and said, "It's not good, I refuse."

"The current commissions have taken up a lot of my energy, unless you can wait for a while, but I'm not sure how long it will be."

Fors looked at Lorry with questioning eyes and saw him shaking his head slightly.

Lorry thought for a moment and said, "Next, I will tell you another Mysticism knowledge.

"It counts as your consultation fee just now, and you are asked not to rush to accept new commissions after completing the commission at hand.

"If we make a request, you will be required to provide appropriate assistance."

"Does it have the same knowledge as last time?" Xiu asked.

The next words were obviously meant for her.

"Yeah." Lorry did not deny it.

Xio shook his head. "Then I won't listen."

As she spoke, she stood up from Sofa and walked to her room. "But I will wait for news from you after completing the task at hand."

"This is for Fors's sake and has nothing to do with other things."

After saying that, she closed the door with a bang.

"Don't like to accept favors without reason." When saying this, Fors glanced at "Great Detective Sherlock" on Tea Table.

That seems to say:

Especially when facing someone you don't like very much.

"Let her go." Lorry shrugged and said, "Anyway, I just hope you don't spread it outside so as not to cause trouble."

"As for Hugh—you can tell her."

He felt quite helpless.

A sheep is being herded, and a group of sheep is being driven.

He planned to exchange for the opportunity to use "Curse of Knowledge", so he thought about letting them use it, but Xio actually refused.

Hypocritical----Lorry commented secretly and looked at Fors: "The knowledge I want to tell you today is called Law of Beyonder Characteristic Convergence----"

Wednesday, noon.

Midseashire, Constant City city.

"Woo"

Amidst the long whistle sound, the "White Coral" slowly docked at Port.

The gate opened, and the tourists who had been waiting for a long time walked down the temporary stairs and quickly dispersed in all directions.

Of course, not all guests are in a hurry to disembark.

For example, the man and woman on the deck.

They appear to be a newlywed couple.

The man is tall, wearing a white linen shirt and black overalls, and has no less than five gold or gem-set rings on his hands.

He is holding a gold-encrusted cane with intricate carvings in his right hand, his left hand is leaning on the railing, and part of a gold-colored chain is exposed from the right pocket of his shirt.

The lady's upper body is in a Intis style shirt, her lower body is in loose coral velvet trousers, and she wears a pair of Leather Boots of the same color.

She also wears a lot of jewelry, such as rings, necklaces, and bracelets.

"As expected of "Wind City"." Fors tried to suppress the flying brown hair with his hands, but gave up after failing twice and sighed in a low voice.

At this time, she noticed a lot of gazes coming from below, her expression was slightly frozen, and she said quietly in a voice that only two people could hear, "Does it really have to be like this?"

"I feel like I'm being watched like Curly-Haired Baboon now."

"Ahem, calm down----" Lorry said softly, "At least there is another Curly-Haired Baboon next to you."

Fors suppressed the feeling of shame and waited for other passengers to disembark. "But I feel that the real Intis people should not be like this."

"It doesn't matter, none of us have ever been to Intis." Lorry shrugged, "As long as they believe that Intis people are like this."

If it weren't for the purpose of disguise, I wouldn't want to be treated as a monkey when visiting. He sighed secretly in his heart and continued to comfort his companion, "Tell me, if Xio comes with us, how should we act?"

"This way we can't pretend to be newlyweds on their honeymoon, but we can pretend to be a family of three and let her play the daughter, haha."

Fors covered his mouth and chuckled, turned his head and glanced sideways at Lorry, and said jokingly, "That's not necessarily true. I heard that Intis men have many lovers."

"That has to be a rich Intis man." Lorry corrected.

Fors said nothing, his eyes moved and swept over his hands. "You look like a rich man."

"It seems that your mood has calmed down?" Lorry observed Fors's expression from the corner of his eye and asked with a low smile.

Seeing her gently nodding, and seeing that almost all the guests on the temporary stairs had left, he picked up the black Suitcase on the left and raised his arm slightly. "Let's go, dear, it's time for us to get off the boat."

Huh----Fors's expression froze, he smiled and nodded gently, "Okay."

Immediately, she stretched out her right hand to hold the arm of her male companion, pretending that she could not see the eyes of the onlookers on the shore, put on her white gauze round hat and walked down.

In the slightly noisy wind, the two people walked down the temporary stairs.

A nearby voice suddenly reached their ears. "Are they from Intis?"

"Sure enough, it is as exaggerated as described on Newspaper. I have never seen anyone put so many rings on their fingers in my life. Isn't he tired?"

"Haha, maybe you're used to it, right?"

"Don't you say Intis is open-minded? Why is she dressed so conservatively?"

"Idiot!

"You can tell that a man is very rich, so why would he show it to you?"

"Do you think they can understand Loenese? Why do I feel that the lady just glared in my direction?"

"You shouldn't understand, right? Newspaper, don't they say that people in their country are uneducated and have no skills, and they only think about getting laid and how to get laid?"

Lorry glanced sideways at the speaker. "I can understand."

Immediately, he said, "@#¥%----&;¥#¥&;."

"Who is the uneducated person?" Lorry changed his name again to Loenese with a strange accent. He sneered and walked towards the nearest Hired Carriage, holding Fors's arm.

"The best local Inn, thank you."
