I'm Really Not Faye

Chapter 17 Apologize, Magic Item

After the airport express line departed, Master Mofeng didn’t say much, leaving only a “willing” look in his eyes.

Let the three of them think about the survival philosophy of the entire academy and even the magic capital.

Compared with Chen Shikun, who was ignorant, Father Chen, who had been immersed in officialdom, had a meaningful look. He kept drinking hot tea in a thermos and conceived how to teach his son this lesson tonight.

In the outer city, the mages are mainly city managers. Not many have served as staff and affairs officers in the entire huge bureaucratic system, or as executives in the leafy corporate system.

Distance produces beauty.

Therefore, the image of the wizard has always been above the clouds in the hearts of everyone, and their philosophy of existence is also shrouded in clouds.

When the Airport Express arrived at the “Peninsula Hotel” by the Yongju River, the three Mofeng rang the bell and got off.

Looking at this landmark building in the hotel industry, Father Chen looked at the three figures, gritted his teeth and pulled his son out of the car and chose to move in.

It is said that when the mages decided that this place was the capital city, they cast a legendary spell above the nine rings on the river that entered the sea.

It will not be frozen all year round, it will absorb sunlight during the day to make pedestrians on both sides of the strait very refreshing, and the dark clouds will reflect the shining stars at night, hence the name “Yongju River”, the place where the stars gather forever.

There are even rumors on the Internet that under the endless turbulent riverbed of Yongju River, there is a graveyard of a legendary mage buried deep.

The opponent’s life’s wealth, countless magical items and learned achievements are stored in it!

The star pattern indicated by the river at night is the key to the guide.

Therefore, every tourist who comes to the magic city will come to Yongju River for a walk at night, feel the extraordinary beauty of the starry sky, and try to be the lucky one.

There are not a few people who dive into the bottom of the Yongju River every year, and there are always so many dead.

The Yongju River flatly divides the magic into two halves. Down the river is the estuary and port, and up the river you will arrive at the vast Star Boundary Lake.

The Central Academy of Magic is located on the most central island in the Star Boundary Lake. Unless they can fly to the sky, students and residents of the island can only go back and forth by regular daily boats.

The Peninsula Hotel where Lynch stayed is located on the bank of the Yongju River. The ferry port is nearby. There will be ferry boats during the day and night. It is also one of the stops on the Academy Star Boundary Island.

A row of Rolls-Royce and Maybach were parked at the entrance of the Peninsula Hotel. The supervisor who had been waiting at the door paid attention to the figure of Mage Mofeng and hurriedly said hello, “Mage Mofeng, how can you not notify me before getting off the plane? I’m going to pick up and drop off.”

“No, the room is arranged, right?” Mo Feng said.

“That’s for sure.” The lobby supervisor nodded.

Mo Feng turned his head and whispered to the two Lynch, “This place is one of our’Golden Dawn’ industries.”

Listening to Liulu, the lobby supervisor instantly realized the identity of Lynch and his expression became more enthusiastic and soft.

Suddenly the phone rang, Mo Feng picked it up and took a look, then frowned and walked to the corner to pick it up.

Lin Qi silently looked at this magnificent, elegant hotel, no more luxurious decorations, mainly whether it is the waiter or the waitress pushing the luggage rack, all of them are uniform in height, handsome and sweet, and it is obvious that the face value passes through. Strict screening.

No wonder people say that the magic capital has gathered half of the handsome men and beauties in the entire country.

Although the lobby manager was afraid to leave Lynch alone, he didn’t know the details and didn’t say anything for a while.

Instead, Father Chen said with an enthusiastic expression, “The two classmates are so independent, don’t you come with your family?”

Wang Ruoling frowned slightly, her face turned aside, “My parents are missing.”

Lynch sighed after listening, and said in cooperation, “My parents are still alive, that is, I was released from prison.”

“…”

Father Chen’s face twitched, and he smiled embarrassingly, “We have a chance to meet each other, why don’t I invite both of you to have a meal at noon.”

His son Chen Shikun stood shyly behind him and glanced at Wang Ruoling from time to time, but he immediately avoided when his eyes were about to meet.

“Let’s see Mr. Mofeng’s arrangement.” Lynch took the stubbornly.

Father Chen smiled and went to the front desk to prepare for check-in. The hall was empty, and they were inconspicuous standing in one corner.

Lynch’s nature is not Eight Trigrams, but Wang Ruoling, who kept pressing her cell phone when she was close to the hotel, couldn’t help but cast her gaze away, because this cell phone was not her regular machine.

In an instant, his pupils widened.

“Quit gambling? Group dinner?”

Regardless of whether it is Wang Ruoling, who is an idol, or Wang Ruoling, who is an apprentice of the mage, it stands to reason that they should not be related to this group of “brothers” who can’t get out of the pit.

Both “gambling” and “drugs” can easily destroy a person and even the family behind them.

Compared with the “rebooting” bar colleagues who are really resisting temptation, the “quit gambling” bar is essentially a gathering of gambling dogs. Most of them have huge debts and can only wander away. There is no home anymore.

After the gamblers inside work or get money from family relief, the first reaction is not to pay off the debt, but to gamble again.

Many personal experiences even portrayed that they won first and then lost, secretly promoting the gambling platform, trying to pull people into the fire.

“Do you know this too?” Wang Ruoling was surprised.

Lynch raised his hands, pretending to be in shackles, and bluntly said, “I just came out of it, I have a lot of knowledge.”

Gamblers basically borrow all the money that can be borrowed from the surrounding area and then defraud them. Even the family worked hard to raise money to repay the loan shark, and The next moment was back to the gaming table. Lynch didn’t want Wang Ruoling to be exposed to too much of this.

“Since you know about group dinner, you should understand that I just placed an order for the takeaway from the person asking for help.” Wang Ruoling exclaimed slightly.

Lynch couldn’t help frowning.

The so-called group meal is mostly after gamblers have gambled, come here to give a reward to help the poor underwater gambling dogs, and give them a “receipt code” of ten to twenty or even fifty to one hundred, and of course, have a good meal. , There are also good-hearted people.

However, most of this money flows back to the gaming table. What’s even more ironic is that the rewarders often return after losing a few days later and become part of the begging for a group meal, and even contact people who have previously rewarded to see if they can get back one or two.

“When I am hit, I will pay it back at the end of the month.” This is the mantra of these people.

Wang Ruoling’s eyes were full of mist, and he said sighfully.

“My dad lost all his family property back then and owed a million foreign debts. After returning home and confessed, my mother and grandparents knelt from house to house and gave him 500,000 to pay him back. As a result…”

“The more your dad thought about it, the less reconciled he became, and then he went to gamble again?” Lynch said coldly.

Back then, his classmates were gambling dogs, and the whole family only helped him get up from the pit to pay off his debts for three years. Seeing that he was about to get married, the family was assured of returning his ID card. As a result, his classmates lost the down payment on the way. Then the bank and small loans borrowed hundreds of thousands and lost. Later, he felt shameless and committed suicide when he went home.

Wang Ruoling smiled bitterly, “You guessed it, but he won 2 million first.”

“What’s next?” Lynch sympathized.

Winning is the process, and losing is the result. He has guessed a more tragic follow-up. There has never been a world without ten bets and nine losses, only ten bets and ten losses.

“Well, at the time, he had a thousand start-up chips in his hand, so he went to the small betting table downstairs, thinking about winning a 100 yuan change taxi and going back. Then the more he bet, the more he loses, and his face becomes pale. Missing. My mother couldn’t bear this fact, so she ran away from home. Grandparents hanged that night, and later my aunt adopted me.”

“I came out to be an idol later, also to pay off the family’s foreign debts and redeem the ancestral home. After completing the goal, I was a little confused, so I turned to the mage route. The result was really successful.”

After listening to the story, Lynch already understood, “So instead of giving money, you order takeaways for these hungry gamblers, but is it useful? They are thinking about gambling and turning over, but in the end they only have the result of reopening. ”

Wang Ruoling smiled slightly, “I give a mouthful of food, and I will persuade you to turn around once. I don’t know if it’s useful, but if there is an orphan like me, it’s worth it.”

“Wang Ruoling, I will definitely beg of you in the future exams.” Lynch said with emotion.

“Huh?” Wang Ruoling was surprised, “You’re not bad in grades?”

Lynch showed white teeth. “There is a custom in our hometown. Before the exam, we must worship the girl Bodhisattva.”

“…” Wang Ruoling was immediately annoyed and annoyed, knowing that Lynch was secretly mocking her mother.

But after teasing like this, she didn’t seem to have the sentimental atmosphere just now.

She suddenly lowered her head, “Lynch, can I believe you?”

“You said, I actually have the nickname of an honest and reliable little man.” Lynch boasted.

Wang Ruoling raised his head, his gaze became extremely sharp, and he looked at the ears and horizon in the distance by the river, reaching out to point his finger.

“There is a place on the Star Boundary Lake.”

“Lost Island?” Lynch had a headache.

It is the only legal and open gambling place for Bluestar, and even hosts of countless online casinos are piled in it, which is outside the law.

“Well. The moment I saw that I was admitted, I made up my mind that one day I would destroy the place that ruined my home.”

Lin Qi’s expression changed. If there was no legendary mage behind Lost Island, he would not believe it.

“Then your ancestral house?”

Wang Ruoling smiled bitterly, “Yes, it’s in the old part of the magic city. If you are interested, I can take you to see it tomorrow.”

Suddenly, Mage Mofeng walked over quickly and put one hand on Lynch’s shoulder.

“Boy, you have turned over.”

Seeing Lin Qi almost startled, Master Mofeng smiled, “Luo Qi, the deceased who put you in jail, his Big sis Luo Yunxi said that your dream last night might be someone else’s act of framing her home.”

“So Luo Yunxi, instead of her parents, would like to treat you to a lunch at Fujulou and apologize to you by the way. By the way, she was a high-achieving student in the college before, and it is estimated that she will be transferred to a regular faculty position.”

Lynch couldn’t help shaking his head, “Refused for me—”

“I heard that you will be compensated for a magic item.”

“It must be bad for me to reject the apology of a weak woman. I mainly want to ask about what time?”

Lynch looked righteous, yes, it must be so.

He wouldn’t bow his head for just a “magic item”!

However, if the icing is eaten and the shells are thrown back, it seems not bad?
