Chapter 208 Unethical Business(1/2)
Chapter 208 Business without ethics
As soon as I delayed reading and writing letters, darkness began to cover the earth.
Gray Linte looked at Carol, who had empty hands, and asked subconsciously:
"Don't you have any luggage?"
Only then did he remember that Carol didn't seem to have any luggage when she was at the Tingen Wilhelm Hotel last time... By the way, when parasitizing for a long time, doesn't the "parasite" need to eat or wash?
Isn’t Sequence 4 so comfortable yet?
According to Gray Lint's understanding, demigods have indeed acquired divinity and have magical abilities like gods in some aspects. However, since they are called "demigods", they cannot break away from the "human" aspect.
one side.
"Parasite" is indeed quite weird. Abstract things like "hunger" can be stolen if nothing else happens, but "hunger" itself cannot be eliminated, right? You can't directly add external food to it
Bring the "nutrients"? And for washing and the like, you also directly take away the dirty things on your body and clothes?
…That’s not to say it’s impossible, but it’s just too weird and weird, and too challenging for normal people’s nerves.
Seeing that Gray Lint had arranged his own affairs and must be "teleporting" to Sloane, Carol immediately stood up and moved around a little, then asked with a smile:
"You want to ask how I usually change my clothes when I don't bring anything with me, right?"
"Well, you may still be curious. I usually wear a slim coat, but I can always take out the 'Guardian Tie' to copy your extraordinary abilities. And when I am 'parasitized' for a long time..."
"cough!"
Gray Lint coughed dryly and smiled awkwardly:
"I'm indeed a little curious...but if it's inconvenient for you, it's okay if you don't have to tell me."
She shook her head, unbuttoned the cuff of her right arm, and folded the sleeve in a circle, revealing her tender white wrist: there was a slender silver-white bracelet wrapped around it, with a circle of pure green fragments inlaid in the center of the chain.
gem.
After dazzling in front of Gray Linte's eyes, she said without changing her smile:
"Nothing inconvenient."
"On this 'parasite bracelet', where the gems are set, there are many small gaps, and all my belongings are in there."
This kind of operation...
It should be possible to use "Chaos" to change the space or the size of things to be stored. With the "Stealer" method, Gray Lint couldn't figure out how to do it.
Unfortunately, in Carol's opinion, he knew the "Stealer" high-sequence very well, so he didn't explain much, retracted his arms, adjusted the cuffs, and tightened the small, unbuttoned leather jacket.
He continued calmly:
"As for 'parasitism', the nutrients needed must be obtained from the host...otherwise, how can we call it 'parasitism'?"
This is a bit scary, a bit weird and evil.
Graylint shuddered subconsciously and stopped worrying about the issue. He easily retrieved the windbreaker hanging next to him and nodded pretending to understand completely:
"So that's it."
"Well, since you don't need to prepare luggage, I will just take you to 'teleport' there!"
"Um."
She hummed a nasal sound and took the initiative to get closer to Gray Lint.
Gray Linte put the warm but not heavy windbreaker on her body, glanced at the slender white palm, moved her eyes upward, held her right arm with his left hand, and turned the other wrist slightly, blurring it.
The figure of the two people...
…………
Sloan Silan, Ami's guest house.
This is a very large "tent" that is more similar to a yurt. In addition to the owner's family, it can also accommodate at least four families of three to stay here. There is also a cow and horse tent next to it.
They all live here.
Here in Sloane, there are tents with uncertain openings everywhere, which is very unfavorable for Gray Lint to teleport into the city... But fortunately, it gets dark earlier here, so under the twilight, he took Carol with him
I went straight to the shadow of the slit in the guest house, and then walked around half a circle before entering the guest house through the main "door".
"Ami-"
He shouted loudly.
This is the host's little daughter. As for the host and his wife, they should be busy preparing food in the kitchen at the moment.
"coming!"
From behind the curtain, he first agreed, and then a girl of fourteen or fifteen years old emerged with bright eyes:
"Big brother."
She said hello, and was inadvertently attracted by Carol's attention:
"Wow, big sister, you are so 'Yoda'!"
"Yuda" is a prairie dialect, and it generally describes a person who is as pure and lofty as a cloudless sky... This word comes from the Dutan language and is a regional variant. Graylint just learned it two days ago.
I have to say that this word was used by Ami to describe Carol, which is really very appropriate.
"I'm praising you!"
Carol's Dutan language was not as good as that of Gray Lint, let alone understand the dialect. Facing her confused eyes, Gray Lint's mouth curled up and he explained succinctly.
Hearing this, she narrowed her eyes and responded with a smile:
"Thank you, little sister, you are also very lively and cute."
Gray Linte coughed lightly, interrupted the politeness of the two people, and said to Ami:
"Ami, please help me prepare a room for my eldest sister. She will stay here for a few days."
The little girl looked at Gray Linte, then at Carol next to her, her bright eyes rolled around, and she patted her forehead with her little hand:
"Oh, big brother, there are a lot of things piled up in the last house, and it's very difficult to clean! Oh... By the way, big brother, don't you still have an empty room in that house?"
In addition to the house where the host family lives, the guest houses are all "family suites", which are composed of two rooms. One larger one is for the couple, and the other is the smaller one for the children...No
The isolation effect inside the servant room and family suite was very poor, and it was inconvenient for any two of them, including Gray Linte, Aphra and Tripp, to live in one suite, so he booked three suites as soon as he arrived.
.
But if he remembered correctly, there were four apartments in Ami's house, and there was just one left for Carol to live in.
Although this girl was quite eccentric, Glalint knew what she was thinking at a glance, not to mention Carol who was more attentive than him, so he coughed heavily and said calmly:
"That's not very convenient. Big brother should go and clean up those things with you."
"Oh, okay"
Ami's idea of bringing the two together came and went quickly. She actually didn't quite understand what it meant. She only knew that the usual big brothers and sisters would become very close after living in the same house like this.
, which made her feel very sweet and happy...
Carol guessed what Ami meant, and was a little embarrassed at first. Then she heard Grallint speak to save her, and then she breathed a sigh of relief and smiled at the little girl, which seemed to agree with Grallint's statement.
…………
After arranging for Carol to stay, Ami’s father quickly served the dinner prepared for them:
One grilled steak, one mutton soup, and the staple food is small black potatoes, a specialty of the grassland.
Vegetables are not available. You can only grow vegetables in these places from September to March and April of the following year. In other seasons, you can only eat preserved dried vegetables or dig wild vegetables.
…
The next day, after having breakfast, he told Aphra that after suspending his tour, Graylint, under the guidance of Carol, came to the city of Kukwa in Uttar Pradesh, West Balam, which was completely uninhabited.
The indigenous areas controlled by the Intis colonial government are occupied by warlords from all sides, and the situation is quite chaotic.
Although in fact, the areas declared under the control of the Intis colonial government, such as the city of Sobia that had been taken over by Ariste and the others, were not much better.
"How should we find Shatila, or Bellakos?"
What Gray Lint was actually asking was "Where are the clues?" As far as he knew, Fenebaud did not establish a colonial government in the Southern Continent on the surface... Of course, secretly, given the chaos and wealth here,
, almost all the forces in the northern and southern continents have sown seeds on this land.
As he asked, his face and bones squirmed and transformed into "Ellen Bieber".
——It's not that he can't change into someone else, it's just that he decided to use this face to operate in the dark in the future, and outline an identity that seems to be real to possible enemies.
At the same time, Carol next to him also followed the same example and became what Eudora looked like before taking the "Faceless Man" potion.
Activating under someone else's identity seems to have helped her digest the "Dream Stealer" potion.
Kuwa is close to the tropics, so even though it was winter in the southern continent, the two of them still changed into thinner clothes and rushed over early in the morning.
Carol recalled it for a moment, then tapped her head with her index finger uncertainly and said:
"I previously investigated that the material fell into the hands of Shatila, and it was determined by a certain 'arsonist'. That was an Intis officer. It is not a good direction for us to continue the investigation."
"But there is a Sidwell tea shop on Kukwasubli Street, which seems to be Belakos's spy in Uttar Pradesh."
To be continued...
