I'm not a magician

The hotel owner has been silently watching the situation at Ji Chi's table. For some reason, since he entered the door, the owner's heart has been tightening nervously, and this ominous premonition has been deepening with time.

While secretly counting the gold coins happily, the boss hid behind the counter and observed secretly.

Then he saw a huge cannon barrel, facing the returning customers he was very familiar with, and the hotel gate that he reluctantly spent [-] gold coins to customize.

The boss froze, the gold coin slipped from his hand and hit the ground with a clang.

The crisp sound of gold coins falling on the ground resounded in the dead hotel, and the stunned guests in the lobby screamed and pushed out of the hotel as if they had just woken up from a dream.

Not to mention the businessman and everyone in the hotel who were facing the cannon, Ji Chi was also terrified. He always thought that Chloe was a bun character, but he didn't expect to be so angry when angry!

He quickly grabbed Chloe before she fired.

Chloe was puzzled, and the red light in her eyes didn't fade at all: "Why? Aren't they bad people? Bad people should be punished." She has her own set of logic.

The businessman has long been frightened, sweating profusely, and his legs are shaking. He has been in the Weiss sea area for so many years, he is familiar with every sea area, and has seen all kinds of strange creatures... But Never encountered such a terrible thing!

No, wait, there is a piece of sea that he dare not set foot in.

At the juncture of life and death, the businessman's brain suddenly became flexible, and he instantly realized why this year's "sacrifice" would sit here well - because the guard monster let go of the sacrifice, and might even come out with the sacrifice ...

The businessman almost screamed, his eyes frantically scanned the surroundings, looking for something that could save his life, but finally stopped on Ji Chi, the look of pleading in his eyes was very obvious.

Ji Chi also had a headache, and didn't know how to explain such a complicated matter to Chloe... He suddenly felt that being a human was really tiring.

Ji Chi sighed and said, "It's indeed the easiest way for you to kill him here, but it's also the least effective."

Chloe insisted, "Why?"

Ji Chi: "Because others will only remember that you killed him, and rarely ask why he deserved to die."

When Chloe heard this, she turned her head and looked around. Wherever she looked, everyone looked away in fear, for fear of being noticed by her.

Chloe was silent, but still did not put down the cannon, and asked: "Then let him continue to live? Won't the bad guys be punished?"

There was a commotion at the entrance of the hotel, Ji Chi looked up, and then smiled: "Of course there will be punishment for doing something wrong, but you can't wipe out all the bad guys with your own strength alone, you know what? Can we make bad people dare not do bad things again?"

Ji Chi received Chloe's confusion and said word by word: "Humans have a weapon that is more powerful than your bullets. It is called the law."

"Who dares to make trouble in Muvila! This is the area ruled by the eldest prince!" Several loud shouts came from the chaotic hotel door.

A group of well-equipped mermaid patrolling guards walked in. They were strong in physique and bright-eyed. The leading guard was even a senior fighter of lv.30.

His sharp eyes swept over Ji Chi's face, and first a trace of disbelief flashed across it.He saw this black fish from a distance on the day of the ceremony, and he secretly regretted it for a long time. How could he appear in front of him again now?

The leading guard murmured: "How come...is this another black fish?"

Just when he lost his mind, the guard behind him poked his back in horror: "Captain! Look at what that is!"

The guard turned his face to look, and was taken aback by Chloe who was putting down the barrel, and immediately picked up the two swords at his waist: "What kind of monster are you! What's the purpose of coming here? Are you here to destroy Muvela! "

Chloe realized that she was being treated as a bad guy, and was unhappy: "Chloe doesn't want to destroy this place, Chloe just wants to teach the bad guys a lesson."

She turned her head and stared at Ji Chi silently, probably accusing him of his prejudice.

Ji Chi coughed guiltyly, turned to the guard and explained: "Master Guard, this man has been in the business of buying and selling mermaids. He mistook me for a mermaid and wanted to arrest me, but my friend stopped me." gone."

He blurred a lot of key information, such as the businessman knew that he was the mermaid who came back from the sacrifice, such as Chloe picked up the cannon to stop it(?)... He firmly put the hatred value on the businessman.

Sure enough, the leading guard was only startled by Ji Chi's voice for a moment, and then quickly focused on buying and selling mermaids.

Buying and selling mermaids is a disgrace to the mermaid clan. While they hate these merchants, they need beautiful mermaids very much.Although there are no clear rules to restrain these merchants, the mermaids will never have a good face when they meet them, and sometimes they will secretly beat them up.

The businessman could neither refute nor dare to refute. The monster was still staring at him faintly, and could only nod to the guards with tears in his eyes.

The mermaid guard looked at the businessman coldly, and they looked at each other. Just as they were about to beat up the businessman and let him go, they heard Ji Chi's calm voice clearly: "I suggest you arrest him."

The businessman stared. He was unwilling to be caught in a pile of mermaids for the reason of buying and selling mermaids. He didn't even have to think about what would happen to him: "What are you talking about? There was no such regulation before!"

Ji Chi said lightly: "It will be available soon, otherwise you can ask His Royal Highness the eldest prince now, he just didn't have time to announce in advance."

The businessman said stiffly: "Impossible! I didn't even know there was such a rule. Where did you hear it? Besides, without us merchants who have worked so hard to find sacrifices, can mermaids find good-looking sacrifices?"

The leader was stabbed to the heart, and couldn't help but kicked him. He held the hilt of his sword tightly, and said to Ji Chi with restraint, "Are you sure the news is true? Spreading His Highness's orders indiscriminately will also be punished." of."

Ji Chi smiled casually: "Of course, you can ask now, I would also like to have the honor of hearing His Highness's personal announcement."

The leading guard gave him a suspicious look, and opened the magic circle of communication.

As the leading guard, he could not directly contact the eldest prince, but could only communicate with the guard next to the prince.

The guard turned sideways, asked a few words in a low voice, and immediately shouted loudly from the opposite side: "When did Your Highness issue such an order? Who is spreading such rumors? Arrest them immediately!"

The guard looked at Ji Chi unkindly, and explained in a low voice to the interrogation team: "Sorry sir, he looks a lot like the black fish from before, I thought he was...sorry, I will arrest him."

The businessman squatted on the ground and listened secretly, the panic gradually faded away, he sneered, and looked up at Ji Chi with some complacency and viciousness.

However, after listening to the explanation from the leading guard, there was a sudden dead silence on the other side of the communication line. After a few hurried and flustered movements, the eldest prince's trembling voice sounded: "Who are you talking about?!"

Hearing the voice of His Highness, the guard didn't care about arresting the "prisoner", and quickly described Ji Chi and the two carefully.

"Catch it! Why don't you catch it!" the eldest prince roared, "Give me an order! The ritual will be canceled forever! Any merchant involved in the sale of mermaids will be hanged! Start investigating now! Don't let those residues leave the Weiss sea alive!"

The guard was surprised and quickly agreed.

The people around had obviously heard the voice of the eldest prince, and they looked at each other in blank dismay.Everyone heard the words of canceling the ritual, and the light in the eyes of every mermaid gradually lit up. They had a hunch that the era of mermaids had changed!

Some merchants who saw the situation were not going well quietly left the crowd and began to walk along the coast with their heads buried.It's a pity that just halfway there, they were blocked by a group of long-standing mermaids. Their gloomy eyes made them feel the despair of their lives being controlled by others.

After watching this messy scene for a long time, Chloe turned her head and said to Ji Chi, "Chloe still doesn't understand what a weapon the law is, but it's so powerful."

Ji Chi smiled: "Yes, thinking and wisdom will always create miracles."

Chloe nodded half understanding.

After the chaos, this hotel couldn't stay any longer. The clean and tidy store was in a mess, and the tables, chairs and pans were damaged a lot. The few extra gold coins that Ji Chi gave earlier were not enough for the renovation of the store.

The hotel owner wanted to cry but didn't dare to seek compensation from Ji Chi, so he could only lose his temper with the maid with tears in his eyes: "Are you a lady! Why didn't you come out to stop them just now! Now that it's like this, what do you think?" Hurry up and take out all the previous salary! Don’t even think about getting a penny in the future!”

Anna looked at him coolly, pulled the apron around her waist, and stuck it on the boss's face: "Go away, don't let me see you again!"

The boss stared at her with wide eyes. No matter how much he suppressed her before, Anna was submissive. This was the first time she disobeyed him. For a moment, she was more surprised than angry: "You! You want to disobey the slave contract?!"

Anna sneered: "What counts as disobedience, you read to me?"

The boss started to get angry. He bent down and got under the counter. After searching for a long time, he pulled out the yellowed paper in a hidden corner. He gave Anna a shady look, and said in a clear voice: "My name is Anna, her race is human. , Since February 2th, I have voluntarily become... If you disobey the order, the owner can dispose of all property including life at will."

The boss pinched the contract with two fingers and shook in front of her: "This is a soul contract!"

Anna smiled nonchalantly: "Unfortunately, even race is a wrong contract, what effect can it have?"

The boss was taken aback: "What?"

Anna's human potion was about to expire at last, and she no longer had to struggle to hide her mermaid blood, and a burst of coolness like sea water replaced the hot blood of human beings.

Anna's exposed skin became pale, and blue blood vessels were faintly visible. On both palms, light blue webbed membranes were connected between each finger, and a translucent fin was erected in her ears.

Anna, who turned back into a mermaid, wiped off the coral gray covering her face, and gradually revealed a beautiful face. She slammed the table hard, and the orc's natural strength caused the red cedar table to shatter in an instant.

"I'll say it again, don't let me see you again." Anna stared closely at the earthy-faced, trembling boss. The bloody smell on the lips and teeth of the beast could not be erased even if she had been dressed as a human for many years.

He scared the shit out of him and ran away, not even remembering that this was his own hotel.

After watching one wonderful farce after another, Ji Chi took Chloe out, intending to change to a hotel for dinner. He passed by Anna, smiled and blessed: "Congratulations, you will live a bright and fair life from now on."

Anna clenched her hands tightly by her sides, and the arrogance all over her body disappeared, leaving only a strong sense of unreality. She held back the tears that were about to shed, and said in a trembling voice: "Wait a while before leaving, I will leave for you." Prepare some food."

She wiped her face, walked to the kitchen at the back of the hotel, and brought out sumptuous dishes one after another, and cut herself a plate of plump fresh fish fillets along the way.

Anna deftly cleaned up a clean table, and the napkins, knives and forks, and dinner plates were carefully and delicately arranged, which she had never done before.

She raised her eyes, twitched the corners of her mouth and said with a smile: "After observing human beings for so long, I found that you like to celebrate good things with food. Unfortunately, I can't find any companions I know. Can you celebrate with me?"

Ji Chi hesitated for a moment, but sat opposite Anna.

The two enjoyed the meal in front of them silently. Chloe watched them eat for a long time, and also learned to grab a small piece of bread and held it in front of her eyes, as if thinking about where to fortify.

She thought about it, and finally opened her stomach and stuffed the bread in.

Anna lowered her head and ate the sashimi silently. It had been a long, long time since she had eaten food that belonged to a mermaid, and the pearls fell on the plate.

She barely ate a few mouthfuls, and finally couldn't help it. She covered her face and cried bitterly: "Thank you, thank you so much... I never dared to think that there would be this day. I, I can finally be free, I can finally be free." Back to the sea..."

Anna cried intermittently while eating, as if she wanted to cry out all the grievances and frights of these years. It was not until the sun went down that Bud and Don entered the hotel with a sound of sea water.

When they saw the messy hall, they were stunned: "What's going on?"

Ji Chi scooped the last spoonful of creamy soup into his mouth, picked up a napkin and wiped the corners of his mouth: "It's a long story, it looks like we're going to change hotels tonight. I asked, Mvela's teleportation array only You can only go to Saint Tri Empire at ten o'clock in the morning."

Bud glanced at the messy hotel. He was very tired these days and really wanted to have a good night's rest. He was about to nod when Anna stopped him.

"Please stay here tonight, don't worry, with me here, no one will disturb you." Anna had regained her composure, she got up and cleaned up the table, straightened up with a plate, her eyes were red and sincere He smiled, "Thank you very much, just let me do what I can."

At night, the hotel was unusually quiet, only the sound of the waves beating in the distance echoed.

Bud opened his eyes, he was already mentally and physically exhausted, but too many things happened in his mind, which made him toss and turn, unable to sleep.

Just as he sighed and was about to open his eyes to get through the night, a burst of beautiful singing that had never been heard before came from below the hotel.

The singing is ethereal and ethereal, and when it reaches the ears, it makes people feel as if they are on a small boat floating with the waves in the blue sea, brewing bouts of drowsiness.

That night, everyone had a peaceful and peaceful dream, and even Chloe tried to let go of her thoughts and immerse herself in the gentleness of the sea.
