Nono from another world

Chapter 133

Soon, Nuonuo was the only one left in the banquet hall.

She stood alone at the same spot, watching Liuli and Nim go farther and farther, and there was no one around to talk to, so she walked to the dining table, picked up the plate, and prepared to get something to eat for herself.After running around for more than half an hour, she was really a little hungry.

Strange to say, since she started practicing by absorbing crystal energy, her appetite has become bigger and bigger.

But if you think about it carefully, the reason for this is not difficult to understand.

If the body of an ordinary person is a car, then the crystal adaptation body is equivalent to a large truck. In order to support the operation of this truck, more "gasoline" is naturally needed.

And with the improvement of physical fitness, the nutrients you need will definitely be more.Otherwise, there is no difference between a crystal adaptor and an ordinary person.Although she couldn't see it, Nuonuo could feel that her muscles, bones and musculature were completely different from when she first arrived.Stronger and a little tighter.

Previously, Nuonuo ate up to two breads, one vegetable soup, and a small amount of meat for a meal.But now, she can eat at least five or six catties of food in one meal. Of course, if she can eat some high-calorie foods, she can eat a little less.

This made Nuonuo couldn't help but sigh, how could there be so many things in his stomach.It is also because of this that Nuonuo is so anxious to find a part-time job, otherwise, given the current situation of the Polar Branch, she may have difficulty even eating enough, let alone buying crystals.

The most important thing is that, as a crystal adaptor, in addition to eating enough, Nuonuo also has to find a way to find something beneficial to her practice.Nuonuo didn't quite understand the principle of it, so he had to call it food tonic in general.

The materials needed for food supplements are often very expensive and hard to come by. Ordinary investigators don't even have the opportunity to try it. Only when they reach the point like James and the others can they enjoy it.

So just from eating, you can know how difficult it is to become an investigator. In addition to talent, you also need a lot of money.

A-level investigators like Liuli who have no background and family support and are completely self-taught are a minority after all. Most investigators have at least some family background, if not aristocratic families.Moreover, if you can enter a place like the Empire Branch or the Cold Night Branch, then you don't have to worry about your own future. There are a lot of resources available to these investigators.

Therefore, the gold coins that the empire invests in investigators every year is not a small fee.No matter how talented the recruited students are, the Imperial Psychic Academy can only train three to four hundred students each year, which is why investigators are extremely rare and respected.

……

Accompanied by the melodious melody of an instrument that looks a bit like a violin, the dance party held by the Western Division officially began.Before it was time to dance, those boys and girls with vaguely excited faces, wearing rare gowns, holding drinks or drinks, gathered together in small groups to chat, and there was a sense of guidance in the conversation The taste of the country.

Nuonuo didn't like it very much, so she found a quiet and remote place, and started eating with the plate in her hand.

No one really came to eat at a dance like this.It's just to adjust the atmosphere so that everyone doesn't have to be so rigid, and can chat and laugh at will.So the people in the banquet hall, at most, just held their glasses to drink some wine, and most of their attention was still focused on the big man on the second floor, thinking about when to find a chance to get close to him or something.

It doesn't matter if you can't get close, this is the first dance held in the west in so many years, and it's still this big.You know, all the famous people in the west have come, even the people who carry the plates and pass the wine are the staff of the branch.If they can take advantage of this opportunity to make more business partners or high-level investigators, then their lives will also be changed to a certain extent in the future.

Nuonuo didn't know anyone, and no one knew her. Even if someone saw her at the door just now, they had already forgotten all about her.After all, to these nobles and dignitaries, Nuonuo is just a small person who can't make any waves, so no one will get close to her.

Nuonuo didn't mind this, but was quite happy, standing by the dining table, eating with a plate while watching the people coming and going, and occasionally looking up to the second floor to check if anything happened.

After eating, Nuonuo was [-]% full, and she tasted all the fresh things on the table.

A group of young people gathered at the other end of the dining table, all of them were seventeen or eighteen years old, and the oldest was only in their twenties.Either with iron-colored Class D badges hanging on their chests, or wearing extremely gorgeous costumes, they are all a group of proud children.And those D-level investigators are so young, if there are no accidents in the future, they are likely to become S-level investigators.

Because of this, these people have an arrogance and extreme self-confidence on their faces.Most of them didn't know the real purpose of this banquet, they only thought it was organized by the deputy minister on a whim.So I simply got together and talked about some topics that I am interested in, and by the way, see if I can meet one or two young ladies or young masters of famous noble families. It would be even better if I could get married because of this.

Nuonuo tried to bypass the group of people and turned to the other side of the table, just in time to hear a few people talking.I only heard one of the D-level investigators say in an extremely mocking tone: "Do you know? I heard that this ball is held to clean up the few investigators from the imperial capital, but anyone with a discerning eye can see it."

"Follow the wind and wash away the dust? No, it's just a few investigators in the district. How can we use such a big battle? Is it a mistake?" A woman in a red dress expressed disbelief.

"Of course it can't be true. This is just a nominal statement. Everyone knows that the deputy minister hates those people in the imperial capital the most. It's fine if these people don't have any real skills, and they don't even have any self-knowledge. Remember before Did you come here two years to inspect those people? That time, it was because of their insistence that our branch lost three people in the Moses Wilderness!" the man said with righteous indignation.

"It's terrible!" Hearing this, the woman in red's face suddenly turned pale, she covered her mouth and cried out in a low voice, "Then... what is the purpose of the deputy minister holding this ball?"

"Does it need to be said? Of course it is to promote the cooperation between the branch and the nobles and rich merchants." The man said triumphantly, "Do you know what happened to the mines in Xi'an District a few days ago? I think..."

Seeing that the people around him listened with gusto, the man spoke more and more vigorously, until even he himself felt that what he said was very reasonable.

Seeing this, Nuonuo couldn't help shaking her head.Bragging is not terrible, the scariest thing is that the people around take this kind of nonsense seriously.Thinking of this, Nuonuo simply walked a little further away, ready to go to another table.

At this moment, one of the men in a navy blue dress casually glanced at Nuonuo, raised his brows suddenly, tugged at his companion, pointed at Nuonuo, and said something in a low voice.The partner stared at Nuonuo for a few moments, noticed the look on Nuonuo's face, frowned, and said something to the people around him.

At the end, the group of people all stared at Nuonuo, and then focused their attention on the investigator who was talking just now. This young D-level investigator took a look at Nuonuo, and his eyes first fell on her chest. He looked at her attire again, then shook his head.

Seeing the young man shaking his head, the woman in red came over, stopped Nuonuo and asked, "Which family are you from? Why haven't I seen you?"

When Nuonuo saw the woman in red suddenly rushing over to talk to him with a bad expression, she felt a little baffled for a while, so she raised her eyebrows and said nothing.

Seeing this, the rest of them thought that Nuonuo was ignoring them on purpose, and their hearts burst into anger.Those who can come here to participate in the ball are either nobles or promising investigators, and their status is extremely noble. When was it so ignored?

Of course, those who can come to this kind of dance are naturally not fools. The reason why everyone looked at the person in the middle just now is that he is the person in charge of preparing the dance, besides he seems to have a lot of information about the branch. One, he knows the appearance of all the guests.

So everyone needs this person to confirm whether the red-haired girl in front of me is an investigator or a noble lady.But he shook his head, which showed that the other party was neither an investigator nor a noble lady.

It was probably a temporarily recruited cook who sneaked into the banquet hall while there were too many people, otherwise why would she keep eating?Only girls from poor families would eat desperately on such occasions, right?
