Chapter 313 Social Worker

“Roommate in orange pajamas. To be able to find such a friend, It's really enviable."

The young girl said, subconsciously touching the ruby earring on her right ear. Just at this moment, the waiter came over with the vegetable salad she ordered, and the two stopped talking for a while.

This is a relatively good restaurant in the quayside area. It is noon and there are many people dining. However, the tables in high-end restaurants are not as dense as those in street bars. Shade and Miss Prince themselves chose a corner against the wall, and there was no one seated around the table, so there was no need to worry about being overheard when talking.

"Speaking of which, Miss Prince, what are you doing in this city?"

Shade asked, just stating his occupation just for convenience Ask for the person's identity.

You can see at a glance that the young girl of noble birth did not refuse to answer this time:
"The side business is a reporter. I occasionally write some social commentary reports and submit it to the newspaper. As for the main business. Mr. Watson, I'm not afraid of your ridicule, I'm a noble, and my father doesn't agree with me to go out to work, so you treat me as the kind of noble girl who has nothing to do all day, going to banquets and Sand Dragon."

This kind of self The introduction is similar to Shade's guess. Seeing that the other party's answer this time was nothing to hide, Shade tried to ask further:
"Noble? Oh, it seems that I have really met a wonderful person. I don't know, your father is"

"I can't tell you his specific identity. As for his occupation, he is a social worker, contributing to public causes."

"Social work?"

Shade The understanding is that in order to maintain their dignity and status, the small nobles usually seek a position in the city hall or government department. Not necessarily a high salary, but must be able to get it. There is a similar position in the municipal department of the kingdom. "Social work" is a relatively sub-level 1 job, and it is impossible to get around without doing things.

Therefore, Shade speculates that the identity of the father of the other party should not be high.

"This is a very hard job. He never thought of quitting his job and trying to start a factory? Recently several decades, the news of aristocrats relying on their connections to set up factories and then become very rich is in the newspapers. It's not uncommon."

Shade was half-testing, half-joking, while Miss Prince stabbed cauliflower with a fork and smiled helplessly:

"Resign? Oh, this No. As far as I know, no one has ever been able to voluntarily resign in the profession that father is engaged in. You may not understand that this is a lifetime seat. Although this kind of work with little salary is heavy, it often ends at 9 o'clock in the evening. It is necessary to process documents in the study, but there are also high benefits that the ordinary person can't imagine. The work content involves many people, and it is not easy to resign."

"That's really unfortunate."

Shade made an expression of sudden realization, sympathizing with Miss Prince's busy father, and then cut the steak in front of him with a knife.

After being promoted to the second ring, his appetite increased slightly. But this is also a normal situation. The ring warlock itself is a power system that improves both the body and the spirit, and a similar situation will occur just after the upgrade.

After the preliminary test, Shade believes that although the five-ringed female warlock is still suspicious, she can basically be trusted. In this strange city, paying to hire her as a one-day tour guide, It shouldn't be something wrong.

Besides, he is not afraid of making mistakes. If there is a problem, he will immediately throw into the sea. Even if the opponent is a five-ring warlock, it is impossible to chase him into the sea.

Miss Prince has high requirements for food, so she gave up the vegetable salad after only two bites, as if she disliked the stale vegetables here. As for drinks, Shade chose to drink soup instead of wine, while Miss Princes asked for clear water and whispered to Shade about the drinks:

“Last night, I sneaked away .cough cough, I went out to dinner alone and asked for a bottle of 1845 wine from Chateau Russell. Mr. Watson, guess what?"

"Is the wine watered?"

Shade guesses.

“Of course not, adding water is the lowest form of practice. The restaurant used a bottle of the third-rate bargain that Château Russell sold in bulk this year, pretending to be a good wine from 1845.”

His slender fingers swayed the glass of white water, as if it was wine:
"Mr. Watson, if you are interested in wine tasting, I can take you to a good place to eat in the evening."

"No, I'm not used to drinking."

Shade shook his head, but Miss Prince didn't insist, as if he knew Shade would say that.

After lunch, Miss Princes decided to accept Shade's employment and used the rest of the day to take Shade around Coldwater Harbor City.

But since you have to go in and out of those sensitive places, you can't use your original face to act. It happened that Miss Prince would also find a place to store the bag of books she was holding, so she took Shade back to her residence in the city, intending to help Shade and herself do simple makeup.

The so-called residence is of course not the house of an aristocratic family, but the house that Miss Prince herself rents out. It is not a single-family apartment, but a relatively simple collective apartment small room located on Robin Hood Street, South District, Lengshuigang City.

Robin Hood Street is only a fifteen-minute drive away from where the two can eat. The apartment is more like a big house, with garlands hanging from the iron fence, entering the house, the first floor is a wide hall with seats and card tables for residents to rest and entertain. In the center of the second floor is the patio, surrounded by small rental rooms, there are 12 rooms on the first floor. On the other side of the corridor outside the room is a fence, where you can lie down and overlook the first floor.

Cautiously, Shade observed every detail of the apartment when she followed Miss Princes here. This shouldn't be faked to scare people. This is indeed a normal rental apartment. The other tenants who pass by them have the temperament of a small city citizen, but they can't be disguised.

This is presumably only for temporary accommodation, so the interior of the apartment is very small. In addition to the room that served as both the living room and the bedroom, there was only a small balcony where you could hang clothes, and an unusually small bathroom.

Although the atmosphere of life in the house is not very strong, the mildew spots and paintings on the walls, the unwashed teacups on the table and the dresses swaying in the wind on the balcony all indicate that it is often used by people. It was indeed Miss Prince's temporary residence, which further dissuaded Shade.

The young girl hid the book she was holding in the closet, and then beckoned Shade to sit down on the mismatched chair beside the low coffee table. There were old newspapers on the chair and a few pages scattered on the coffee table. She didn't seem to be cleaning the room very often:
"Since I'm hiring, it's not too late for us to negotiate the price before we set off. Mr. Watson, First of all, you have to tell me, as a tour guide, what kind of place I need to lead you to."

PS: Ask for a ticket, ask for a ticket, any ticket will do.
