Lord of the Mysteries: Yao Guang

Chapter 169 Spice Grilled Fish
After the blue-haired man left, Danitz's game of cards also came to an end. He made a lot of money and closed it just right.

Seeing that Danitz was exchanging chips into cash, Esther couldn't help asking, "Don't play again? I think you're lucky today."

"No, I can't trust that guy just now. If he sells our news to 'Steel' backhandedly, it will be bad luck."

Esther shook her head: "He won't."

"Where did you get your confidence?"

Danis couldn't trust the blue-haired captain of the ghost ship, and "Vice Admiral Iceberg" speculated that there might be other forces behind him.Danitz didn't even know each other very well. Between different ships, the mutual trust among the pirates was similar to the love in the "Red Theater".

It's all fart.

Esther straightened her wide-brimmed straw hat: "I won't go with you at noon, and you can go wherever you want afterwards. Try not to get wet, or your makeup will be stained."

"Huh? Then what are you going to do?"

"Find a few restaurants for lunch, otherwise?" Esther asked back.

Danitz's previous illusions were immediately shattered: "I thought you were here to help me collect information..."

Esther had a clear conscience: "No, I'm just here to join in the fun."

Originally, she really wanted to try two games in the casino, but what Danitz said made sense.

Mr. "The Hanged Man" is a very cunning and sophisticated character, and his attitude cannot be completely equated with his actual actions.Danitz's injury hasn't completely healed yet, it's safer for him to keep a low profile, and Esther can understand his wariness against "The Hanged Man".

As soon as the front foot and Danitz broke up at the gate of the "Gold Coin Casino", Esther encountered some small troubles on the back foot.

Esther felt a little bit regretful at this time, after all, her makeup style today was more gaudy, even wearing a mask, it would only make those who have different intentions even more imaginative.

Flicking her wrist, Esther decisively grabbed twice, stealing the thoughts of the two bastards blocking the alley, and quickly digested the few memories she stole.

They are really pirates. Doesn't Bayam have a "Red Theater" dedicated to this kind of business?How presumptuous!

Because she didn't want to cause trouble, Esther's hand that fell on "Logan's Claw" finally moved away, and quickly walked around them and walked out of the alley before the two returned to normal.

If I can be promoted to "Parasite", I can act in other forms without being so troubled.But if you want to parasitize others... It doesn't matter, there are so many pirates in Bayam, why don't you worry about not finding any criminals?
Esther walked through several streets like a walk, and after wandering for a long time, she came to a spacious street planted with many Intis plane trees.

After hiding the mask on her face, she showed her face and stepped into a restaurant with a fairly neat and clean facade, and was led by the waiter to sit at a small table for one person.

It was close to twelve o'clock, and there were still quite a few people dining in the store. The more private corner next to it was covered with a flower wall to form a separate compartment, but it was not completely closed, and a single customer could be observed inside. dine.

Esther glanced at the menu casually: "Just one of your special grilled fish, and another glass of Teyana juice with pulp. You also have Intis dishes here? Then add another grilled brulee, Thanks."

After the waiter turned and left, Esther felt the eyes of the guests sitting at the next table.

Esther turned her head so that she could look over the sparse holes in the flower wall and meet the gentleman's scrutinizing eyes. She smiled proudly and sweetly at this handsome and heroic young man.

All the hair of this man is pressed under the silk top hat, which he did not take off even when he was dining indoors. His emerald eyes are very deep and full of chic allure.

Esther narrowed her eyes. This gentleman seemed to have put on light makeup on his face, deliberately accentuating the shadows of the facial features, making the originally more neutral appearance much tougher.

It seems that Intis does have a tradition of male makeup, and this gentleman's makeup skills are not bad.

Just when Esther was about to look away, the young man in a double-breasted dress suddenly moved his body closer to the flower wall, and asked in a low voice with glowing eyes:
"Ma'am, are you interested in making a little money?"

His Loen language had a little Intis accent, which made Esther instantly think of some disgusting people, and with these words, Esther couldn't help but sneer:
"I'm not in that line of work, sir."

After she finished speaking, she turned her head away, too lazy to talk to this person.

"No, no, you misunderstood!" The voice from the other side of the flower wall sounded again, and after his voice was raised, he sounded more like a teenager who had not gone through the voice change period, "I just want you to help, just go to Bayam Go to other places, I can provide the corresponding funds, you just need to—"

Esther stared at him suddenly in surprise:
"Just pretend to be you?"

"Actually you are a lady, sir?"

Esther originally just wanted to make a nasty joke to let the other party understand that she was not interested, but the next performance on the other side made Esther see through the truth.

The voice on the other side of the flower wall stopped abruptly, but soon rang out more urgently: "Red hair is quite rare here, I really hope you can think about what I said, or just leave Bayam by boat in that appearance That's it! I can provide identification and a boat ticket!"

Esther looked at "him" suspiciously: "Aren't you afraid that I will sell your news?"

The "man" calmed down instead: "You don't know me, and I won't come to this restaurant again after today, what do I have to be afraid of? Anyway, they always know that I am still in Bayam... I will soon will leave here."

"You are very free and easy." Esther heard the other party's lie, and did not expose it. Instead, she smiled and "commented" a word, and then quietly waited for the waiter to serve the food.

She has no obligation to help people avoid trouble, and she is not a philanthropist.

Soon, the waiter placed grilled fish and drinks on the table, and after obtaining Esther's consent, they also brought desserts.

Esther skillfully picked up the chopsticks that were not smooth like twigs, skillfully separated the fish meat from the fish bones, and sent them to her mouth. It was not at all obvious that she was eating with chopsticks for the first time.

"Two hundred gold pounds. If you want, I can even ask someone to help you arrange your identity and send you to Intis. Enter legally, including work arrangements, and bring up to one family member." The suspicious person disguised as a man added weight the word "legal".

Esther frowned, and glanced suspiciously at the pair of demantoid eyes in the flower wall, the other's expression was anxious and urgent.

If Esther is really just an ordinary girl in Bayam, she will definitely accept it without saying anything at this time. For ordinary residents of these islands, going to the "big city" may be a lifetime longing. dream.

However, after bidding farewell to their home island, the essence of their life has not changed much, and they have never really left the bottom.Many people can't understand this, and just want to go to those more prosperous places to live a good life.

Esther glanced indifferently: "If you just want me to die for you, how can I verify what you said? Maybe you can try to swear on your most precious thing, and I will consider yours proposal."

After a while of silence, Esther enjoyed the fish wrapped in the strong smell of spices, and did not pay attention to the struggle of the person behind the flower wall next door.

"I... swear in the name of my family, this is just a commission, and I will not let you die for me."

"Please, I don't know if I know the family you mentioned. If you impersonate the Augustus family, I don't know whether it is true or not—"

The "man" gritted his teeth and said, "I swear on the honor of the Sauron family."

Esther was stunned suddenly. She took a sip of Triana juice to dilute the smell of spices in her mouth, lowered her eyes and took a deep breath, focusing on the perception that made everything chaotic.

Soon she got the answer she wanted:

The faint salty and smoky smell is like a rusty sword polished in a flame.

Esther quickly raised her head, showing a joyful smile: "The oath I just said was to tease you."

The anger in the eyes of the opposite party almost turned into substance: "You—"

"You're a 'hunter.' Direct?"

The green-eyed "man" was silent for several seconds, and looked at Esther clearly: "You are extraordinary...so that's the case, I was wrong, sorry."

If the other party is an Extraordinary, then there is a high probability that they will not have such a simple background, and there is no need to take risks for such a small amount of money. The conditions he proposed are not very attractive at all.

Just when the "man" was about to propose to cancel the transaction, Esther nodded suddenly, and raised the glass of juice on the other side:
"I agree to help you, but the conditions need to be changed. Two hundred gold pounds, you have to find a way to provide the potion for camouflaging eye color, and—"

"I want a tube of your blood, just fill it with ten milliliters."

The "man" immediately frowned: "This is not good, there are too many cases where blood can be used for curses and tracking in terms of mysticism."

Esther began to eat the baked brulee in small bites, and the sweet taste made her feel better: "Then we don't need to talk about it."

After a pause, it was rare for Esther to be sincere in this conversation: "Actually, the red hair is just my disguise. Judging from your firm belief, my disguise should be quite successful."

She tapped her cheek, and used the mental interference of the "Trickster" to create an illusion.

This time, the "man"'s gaze was completely frozen. Although he was not exactly alike, "he" was full of the illusion of looking in a mirror. If he was an unfamiliar person, he would definitely admit his mistake at a glance!
Esther shook her head with a smile, and retracted the illusion on her face: "A tube of blood may be too much, so what do you think of replacing it with other things, such as some information?"

"What do you want? Two hundred gold pounds is almost all the savings I can make up, and I even have to borrow money from the elders in the family! I don't have the funds to help you find out other things!" Hiding the heartbeat in the eyes.

The corners of Esther's mouth hooked up, and after she made an overly demanding request, the fish would take the bait by itself:

"It's not something important, I want information about the 'Hunter' pathway, everything you know."

"...do you want the recipe?"

Esther shook her head: "No, the price you pay is too high, which is not fair. I just want to know the name of the sequence and the general ability, really."

She smiled and blinked:
"If you don't believe me, look at my sincere eyes."
