Chapter 5

"Ah-choo!" Raymond sneezed violently, sniffed, took out a tissue from his pocket, and blew his nose.

"What, a cold?" Lacey said gloatingly.

"How is that possible? My health is fine." Raymond wiped his nose depressedly, "Someone must be scolding me behind my back..."

Lacey shrugged, "You are really scolded." She didn't care about Raymond's pitiful expression towards him, and looked away worriedly, muttering, "Why hasn't Rael come back..."

Didn't expect something like this to be sold here.

Rex looked at the bag of fruit in his arms and smiled happily.

After they finished shopping, it was time for dinner, so the three of them were going to find a place to have dinner. At that moment, Rex saw someone selling this kind of fruit.The fruit is called Trichocarpus because of the purple fuzz that covers its shell.After peeling off the shell of the trichome, the white flesh inside will be revealed, which is full of water, sweet and delicious.However, although this kind of fruit is not so rare that it has a price and no market, it only matures in the early spring of January and February every year, and there are only a few places in the Western Continent where the trichome grows, so It is also a relatively rare species.

In Rex's memory, this kind of fruit is not called Maomaoguo, but Chunlai, because when it is ripe, it means that spring is coming.

I remember he loved eating this.

Thinking of this, Rex's smile grew wider.

"Ah!" Was hit.

"I'm sorry, are you okay?"

Rex, who was checking whether the things in his hand were damaged, raised his head after hearing the question, saw a beautiful female student, smiled and said, "It's okay." Then he lowered his head and carefully looked up again Checked what was in hand.

"Well, I'm really sorry." The girl felt very sorry.

"It's really okay." Rex looked at the girl's disappointed expression, felt a little helpless, reached out and took a mamoo fruit in the paper bag, and handed it to her, "It's really nothing, it's just bumped."

The girl took the Mao Mao Guo in surprise, held it carefully, and was about to say something, but found that Rex had gone away.

"...I don't know your name yet..."

"Rex!"

"Huh? Lean? Why are you here?" Rex felt like seeing a ghost when he saw Lean. This guy didn't sleep in the dormitory?

"Hey, don't look at me like that..." Lien said helplessly, "My luggage is still with you. I found you very hard in this crowded place."

"That's it." It's really hard, but it seems that this student ID card can be used for positioning.Looking at Lean, whose face was covered in sweat, Rex decided not to speak out.

"Hey~ That girl just now, she's pretty~" Lean bumped Rex with his elbow and said teasingly.

"Have it?"

"Huh?" Lean's eyes widened in surprise, "It's really beautiful!"

"What's so beautiful?" Lacey thought it was strange to see Rex coming with Lean, but when he heard Lean say "it's really beautiful", his curiosity was aroused.

"You heard about me~" Lien realized that they had already reached the place where Lacey and the others were eating, and took a seat next to Lacey with a sinister smile, and said mysteriously, "Hmph, just now Rex was beaten by the beautiful woman." Hit up~"

"Being approached?" Ryan suddenly felt that this matter didn't seem so interesting.

"That's right, pretty girl~ He even gave someone a maomao fruit, so I asked him, but he still said 'do you have it?' Oh my god!" Li En's face was almost tangled together.

"I really don't think she's so pretty. I gave her Mao Mao Guo, but she seemed to be in a bad mood." Rex lightly put the bag in his hand on the table, took out the fruit and handed it to Lacey, with a gentle expression It can drip water. "Try it, it's delicious."

"Yeah." Lean was ignored, but when Rex handed over the fruit, Lacey suddenly became happy again.

"Do you know why some people think it's normal?" Raymond didn't know when he got to the side of Lean (in fact, he was driven over by Rex, because he was sitting on the other side of Lacey), and shook at him Finger, "Only those who have seen a lot of beauties think they look average. Come, tell me, tell me, what does that beauty look like~"

"Yeah." Lien finally found a good friend, and shook hands with him excitedly, "She has long red hair like a flame, a pair of bright blue eyes, a small bright red mouth, and her figure is nothing to say~ woah~ Beauty~" Li En put his hands on his heart and fell into his own fantasy, "If I can say a word to her, I will have no regrets in my life~"

"Oh~ You actually saw our school flower~ You are so lucky~" Raymond was very envious.

"School flower?"

"Yes, her name is Lucia Enbit, and she is the first heir of the Enbit Kingdom. She has inherited the beauty of Lucian, the number one beauty in the Leiden Continent. Coupled with her status, she should be the Our school belle~ However, she is only a school belle, but not the number one beauty in our school~"

"Why? And the number one beauty?" Lean's eyes began to flash green, "better than Lucia?"

"You have to know that this beauty is gender-neutral. The number one beauty in our school is also the number one expert, a magic swordsman who cultivates both magic and martial arts, Yi Dakel, and you will all see him soon~"

"Huh? Really~"

"Well, our school requires all magicians to master some fighting skills, so as not to have any ability to resist under special circumstances. Therefore, besides teaching the martial arts department, Mr. Idakel will also teach the students of the Ministry of Magic. But he is very strict, very strict..." As if recalling some painful memories, Lei Meng's tears flowed out like lasagna, "But!" He clenched his fists, "Even if he is strict, as long as he can see the teacher's shocking beauty , I am willing to die!"

"...Really..." Li En stretched out his hand tremblingly, "Is that an exaggeration..."

I like looking at beauties, but if you want to die, forget it... um...

Lean turned his head to the side and nodded silently in his heart.

"Are you finished discussing?" Just when the two nervous people (Lacey clenched his fists: yes, they were nervous) finally quieted down, Lacey also settled the Mao Maoguo and the dinner brought by the waiter just now, satisfied Rubbing his belly, "Eat slowly, Leyle and I are going back first, and we have to clean up the house."

"Ah, wait a minute, my stuff~" Rion slapped his head, finally remembering his ultimate purpose of coming out.

"Here, I have to take it well this time, and if I lose it again, no one will help you get it back." Rex smiled lightly, and handed him Lean's bag.

"Yes, I will pay attention~" Lian laughed dryly.

"Then I'll go with you too... No! I still have something to buy, you go back first~" Raymond smiled flatteringly, and even took out his handkerchief to wave to Rex and Lacey, "Wait a minute!" go~"

……

very scary--!

With tears streaming down his face, Raymond grabbed the clothes on Lean's chest: "Rex is so scary——!"

"...Where did you offend him..." Lean held his forehead helplessly, "Rex just has a dark belly, it's not that scary, Lacey is scary..."

"No, I sent them to the dormitory with good intentions, invited them to watch the martial arts meeting, and invited them to eat, woooooooo~ Rex stared at me so scary——!"

...If you disturb the two-person world, of course you will be stared at...

Hey……

Lien shook his head, this man is really...

"Rael, you really don't think that person is beautiful?"

"Which one?"

"That's what Lean said." Lacey looked aside.

"I don't think so." Rex looked at Lacey, with the corners of his mouth slightly upturned.

"But you still gave him Mao Mao Guo." His eyes continued to look to the side.

"Because she kept apologizing, I was afraid that you would be worried if I went back late, so I gave her a maomao fruit to divert her attention so that I can leave." His eyes narrowed.

"Oh, ok, ok. Who made Rael a gentle gentleman~" Lacey laughed at him intentionally, "Ah, it's here~"

"Heh~" Rex took out his student ID amusedly, and opened the door.After entering the house, he took out all the things he bought and started tidying up the room. "Lacey, go take a shower first, I'll clean up the room."

"Oh, good." Lacey happily went to get her pajamas and rushed to the bathroom.

Cleaning up the room is the most troublesome thing, if you can run, you must run~

"Wait, shower gel and shampoo."

"Oh." He took the things and went into the bathroom.

Seeing him in such a hurry, Rex shook his head and smiled.

Put the bought ingredients into the freezer, and put away some tableware and kitchen supplies one by one.

Finally, he took out a pot of flowers.

The flower pot is very small, carved out of wood, and an equally small flower is planted in the flower pot.The slender green leaves like willow silk surround a slender flower stem, and then there is a small bright yellow flower with 5 petals, the petals are not big, just like ordinary roadside flowers, just Two stamens protrude from the center of the flower, one blue and one red, which look different.

Rex put the potted flower on the coffee table by the window and looked at it, but his mind was obviously not on the flower.

Ah……

Rex smiled wryly, walked to the kitchen, took some fruits from the freezer, and some other materials, and started to get busy.

"La la la~" After taking a shower, Lacey walked out of the bathroom humming while brushing her hair carelessly. Then, he saw the potted flower on the coffee table.

very beautiful……

Walking to the coffee table and sitting down, she couldn't help stretching her hand towards the flower, touching the petals lightly, such a soft touch made Lacey feel that something in her heart was touched and resonated.

"Lacey?" Rex walked out of the kitchen with two glasses of milk, saw Lacey looking at the pot of flowers, so he walked over and sat down opposite him, and handed him one of the glasses of milk, "This kind of flower is called Nassalidale , which means partner in ancient runes."

"Partner?" Lacey gently touched the petals and smiled slightly. Suddenly, he seemed to think of something, and his face suddenly turned red.

"I... I'm going to bed first." After finishing speaking, he drank the warm milk in one gulp and hurried into the bedroom.

"...?"

Just now, Lacey seemed to be blushing?

Rex touched the flowers in a daze, and suddenly smiled softly.

I see……

the next day.

what--

Lacey sat on the bed and yawned violently, her eyes blurred with sleep.

After a while, he finally woke up.Reaching out and rubbing his eyes, he slowly climbed out of bed and walked out of the room.

"Are you up?" Rex saw Lacey come out of the room as soon as breakfast was ready.

"Well, I woke up." Lacey sniffed, "I'm going to wash up."

Rex smiled softly, "Go ahead, I made pudding with the maomao fruit I bought yesterday."

"Huh? There are still more?"

"Well, I know you'll like it, so I bought some more yesterday." Rex put the breakfast on the coffee table and answered while preparing the cutlery.

It's not just about buying more.

This was the situation at the time.

"Boss, how do you sell these Mao Mao Guo?" Rex asked the boss very politely when he came to the booth selling Mao Mao Guo.

"10 gold coins per lonta (kg)." Seeing Rex's eyebrows slightly frowned, the boss said immediately, "These just arrived today, and they have been kept fresh by magic. 1 gold coins are definitely worth it." , how much, how much does this student want?"

"Well, I want it all." Rex raised the corner of his mouth.

"Oh, this classmate wants them all~" Just after finishing speaking, the boss suddenly froze and swallowed, "Are you sure, you want them all?"

Rex nodded, "Help me pack some in a paper bag, and I'll take the rest myself."

"Yes, yes, I will pack it for you right away!" The boss finally realized that although the mao mao fruit is delicious, the price of 10 gold coins is really expensive. Ordinary fruits only cost 15 copper coins, and 2 gold coins are enough for ordinary people It has been a very prosperous two months, that is, the average little nobles have to weigh a little when buying, whether they are rich enough, of course, they still have the capital to eat occasionally.

Rex directly bought all the maomao fruits here, and the boss was very happy.Every time around this time, he would bring back some pomegranates from the Western Continent, and it would take a while before they were sold out. The effect of the fresh-keeping magic was gradually weakening, and the price had to be reduced a little bit.Today they are all sold out, nearly 50 lonta of Mao Mao Guo are all sold out!

"Guests, take care~!" The boss handed the packaged Mao Mao Guo to Rex, "Here is a total of 49 lonta and 7 lin towers. I will give you a 9% discount, minus the change, and the total is 490 gold coins." The boss While talking about the price, he took out his trading card.

"Okay." Take out your own trading card and overlap it with the boss's trading card. At this time, a virtual image appears above the two cards, and the word 490 is displayed in the box in the image. Then, this virtual The image of the player turned into something like smoke and entered the boss's trading card.

This is the trading method when individuals use trading cards. It was invented by the first boss of the only trading house in the world. He used a special memory metal and added various and complicated magic circles to create such a The card used for trading, the virtual image just now is a kind of visualization magic in the trading card, which shows the transaction amount, and when it turns into smoke, it becomes an engraving magic, enters the receiving party's trading card, imprints the engraving, and is used by the trading card The built-in memory circle "remembers" the amount.Of course, that virtual image is covered by the cover magic in the trading card, and it is invisible to others except the two parties to the transaction.This is the personal transaction of the trading card.Like some relatively large hotels, restaurants, equipment stores, etc., they have a dedicated transaction machine, the principle is the same, but the transaction amount is recorded on the total transaction card.

However, although the trading card is very convenient, not everyone has it. Although the cost of the trading card is not high, there are 50 silver coins. Before, there was no interest on deposits.Therefore, in fact, many people do not have such a convenient thing as a trading card, and Lacey does not.

"Guest, go slowly~" The boss carefully put away his trading card, and watched Rex leave respectfully.

Rex looked at the trading card and student ID card in his hand, and sure enough, the two cards are really troublesome, so he will bind them tomorrow, and then help Lacey deposit all the money in them.Thinking of the purse that Lacey had been carrying in his bosom, which he said contained a lot of money, Rex made this decision.

Just like that, Rex bought all the pilchards, so that no one else in the school could eat pilchards after this this year.

"Rael is really the best~ I'll have breakfast right away~" Lacey, who had already smelled the fragrance, immediately cheered up and went to the bathroom to wash up.

Rex smiled and sat down on the sofa, waiting for Lacey to come over for breakfast.
