Quick Wear: Host, are you playing here?
Chapter 299: The Downtrodden Noble 16
Hua Xia pulled down the sunglasses on her nose to show off, revealing a pair of beautiful eyes. She raised her eyes slightly and looked at the thing that made her stop. It was a wanted poster posted at the entrance of the venue.
The wanted poster must have been posted for a long time and is a bit old. The portrait on it can still be vaguely recognized. The man has a short beard on his face, and what is conspicuous is the single eye mask worn at an angle, leaving only the other intact eye that is narrow and sharp.
250 looked at it: [Host, it's Collider, the pirate leader. ]
Hua Xia blinked slowly, and looked at the waiter who was standing next to the wanted poster, with his hand outstretched as a sign of invitation. He was a tall man wearing a well-fitting black suit, with a slightly bent waist. His face was very white and clean-groomed, and the corners of his lips were raised at a fixed angle.
Perhaps noticing Hua Xia's gaze, the man asked with a smile on his face, "What can I do for you, Your Excellency Lord Charlotte?"
Hua Xia blinked, raised her hand and pointed at the portrait on the wanted poster, looked calmly into the equally narrow eyes, and pointed at the man's waiter outfit: "Collid, you've had a hard time. Being a pirate is exposed to the wind and sun, and you still have to work part-time as a waiter?"
“The salary here should be quite high, right?”
The man froze in place when he heard the word "Kolid". The corners of his lips stiffened for a moment, then he lowered them and said, "My Lord Earl, you are joking."
The system paused, and scanned the waiter's two intact eyes, then thought of Colide's one eye. It couldn't put the two together, but it was sure that the host would not make a mistake.
He sighed: [Sure enough, not all pirates have only one eye! ]
Hua Xia uttered an "ah" in an innocent tone: "Ah, did you admit your mistake?"
She muttered, "By the way, how much is the reward for reporting a Level 1 wanted warrant?"
As she spoke, she stretched out a pair of slender hands and began to count with her fingers: "One million Norton coins? Five million Norton coins? Well, I can buy another set of clothes."
Colide understood the hidden meaning of Hua Xia's words, and it was as if there was a fly stuck in his throat, so he could only swallow it down. "My Lord Earl, do you want the money for your clothes?"
Hua Xia shook her head: "Ten million Norton coins."
As he spoke, he walked inside. Collide gritted his teeth and followed. He saw Hua Xia walk to the sign-in desk and sign her name. Then she took a pen from the side and wrote a long string of numbers on another piece of white paper.
Then, he turned around and folded the note and handed it to Collide smoothly: "Just type the card number on it."
Colide choked, and he was too lazy to ask why the wanted poster offered a reward of 5 million Norton coins and why this woman wanted to blackmail him for 10 million.
Don't try to guess a woman's mind, especially when that woman is Countess Charlotte!
This act of coquettishness made 250 stunned and full of admiration: [Host, you are so awesome! ]
Hua Xia: "It's just so-so, the best in the universe."
【...】
Colide angrily put away the note of debt, and at this time he had to do his "part-time" job well, respectfully leading Hua Xia to her seat.
Just like the seating arrangement on the invitation, Hua Xia sat directly in the first row. Although she was sitting at the edge, the people sitting next to her were all members of the royal family. The male protagonist of the world sat next to her, and to his left were several of his royal brothers.
Elliot sneered after she sat down: "Earl Charlotte can also sit in the front?"
Hua Xia glanced at him and said, "Thanks to my good nephew!"
"..."
The skirt at the side of her body was gently tugged by a hand. Hua Xia turned around, and Barcelos asked her solemnly and unhappily why there were always people coming to talk to her?
Complaining at a frequency that others cannot hear: "Why..."
He emphasized: "A fish can only have one mate."
Hua Xia's expression was indescribable. What was going on? Since she left the house, she had only done two things: extorting money from Colide and speaking to the male protagonist of the world.
And Baseiles looked at her as if to ask if she was going to cheat on him.
Besides, Hua Xia said: "I am a human."
Basiles changed his words: "A person can only have one spouse."
Hua Xia: "Who said that? I'm still the Earl."
Baselès was visibly unhappy.
Hua Xia stopped teasing him and glanced back to see the male lead staring at them with a strange look in his eyes: "So the rumors are true."
Hua Xia: “…”
There are many people who are keeping an eye on Charlotte's family. There are some rumors out there about her being bohemian and unruly, most of which are probably what those experts said.
Hua Xia snorted lightly and sneered in her heart. Elliot could only laugh now, he would just have to wait and cry.
Elliot's eyes turned and fell on Barcellus's slender legs wrapped in finely cut fabrics. Something flashed in his eyes, and he said meaningfully: "After all, he is an old noble. The Earl can even buy banned drugs easily."
He had underestimated her before.
Hua Xia did not comment.
The two spoke in low voices. Elliot seemed to have remembered something and lowered his voice: "My Lord, have you remembered the second half of your sentence? According to the weather forecast, we can set sail again in two months at most."
Hua Xia smiled sincerely this time: "Of course, I will have the guards send it to you tomorrow."
Elliot didn't expect her to be so straightforward. He thought that this person would take some of Joe's money and then negotiate some terms with him. He was a little suspicious for a moment.
Before he could think more, Colide came forward pretending to be a waiter and handed over a booklet. Seeing that the male protagonist of the world didn't even bother to look at him, he probably didn't know that this person was Colide.
The cooperation between the two was not that frank.
When Collide met Hua Xia's half-smile, he suddenly had a bad feeling.
The Earl opened his red lips and said, "Twenty million."
Colide stumbled, and even his good self-control could no longer be maintained.
He quickly dropped the booklet and turned to walk backstage. He really couldn't stay there for even a second. If he stayed any longer, would he still have any underwear left?
250 directly deducts in the system space.
The auction officially began, and the auction was explained in order according to the booklet that each person had.
People started raising signs in the auction hall.
The price of the banned drug was not low, and it was finally bought by Elliot. At the same time, he received a lot of teasing looks, but he remained unmoved and calm.
It was not until the next item came out that Junlang's face suddenly turned dark blue.
The auctioneer began to display the partially covered exhibit and introduced it aloud: "This is a treasure map that was bought by an anonymous collector from a fisherman at sea and is now being auctioned by Truman Auction House."
"It is said that the treasure was covered by the fishing net when the fishermen were fishing. Only half of the treasure is hidden. The treasure is located on an island deep in the Pullman Sea. The auction house cannot guarantee whether it is there or not. Please identify it by yourself."
"The starting bid is five million Norton coins."
