Rao is Jiang Yan's own appetite is far beyond ordinary people because of his ability to manipulate the body, but at this time, he can't help but look sideways at Lily.

The two of them had only been walking around the streets of the imperial capital for half an hour, and this girl had already eaten the equivalent of Jiang Yan's hundreds of gold coins, which was already equivalent to the savings of an ordinary civilian family for more than ten years.

It is conceivable that it is really difficult for ordinary people to support this girl.

Of course, this kind of expense is also related to the fact that Jiang Yan doesn't care about money at all and chooses the best food for Lily.

Jiang Yan looked at Lily, who was holding a string of delicate-looking meat skewers exuding a trace of aura in her hand and didn't know what kind of creature was made of them, and her mouth was enjoying it, and she was a little speechless.

It's rare for us to take our sister shopping once, and how does it feel like we're walking a pet out to feed?

Noticing Jiang Yan's gaze, Lily turned her head to look at him, because her mouth was busy eating and it was inconvenient to speak, so she could only silently express her doubts with her eyes.

"No, it's nothing, you better keep eating. ”

After Lily finished eating this high-grade meat skewer, Jiang Yan looked at the already dim sky and felt that it was almost time to go home, so he stopped Lily's intention to continue.

"......?" Lily asked reluctantly, on her fair face, there were still some oil stains hanging on the corners of her delicate and ruddy mouth, which slightly destroyed her original delicate and perfect temperament that seemed to be untainted by the world, and made the girl inexplicably have a few more charms close to the mortal.

"It's a girl anyway, so pay attention to your image. Jiang Yan shook his head, he didn't know where to take out a clean handkerchief, and gently wiped it for Lily, and the girl also quietly let Jiang Yan move, and there was an inexplicable tacit understanding between the two, as if this kind of thing had been experienced thousands of times and had long been used to it.

After wiping it, Jiang Yan put away the handkerchief, flipped the palm of his hand, and there was an almost imperceptible silver-white faintly visible between his fingers, and when he let go again, there was no trace of the handkerchief in his palm.

Seeing this magical scene, Lily blinked, staring curiously at Jiang Yan's palm, as if trying to find out where the handkerchief went.

"Alright, I didn't look for it, it's just a little trick. Jiang Yan withdrew his palm amusedly, and then said, "Compared to this, Lily, I'll take you to a place, and introduce some people to you by the way." ”

"Where's ......?" After being diverted from the topic, Lily couldn't care less about Jiang Yan's means of accepting things out of thin air just now, and asked.

"It's my private residence in this imperial capital. Now that we're all out, we'll just stay outside and go back to the institute tomorrow. ”

Jiang Yan explained, and at the same time, his mind moved, and he sent a message to his two maids through the Internet.

"By the way, the reward I made with you in the afternoon is right there. ”

Hearing the 'main meal', Lily instantly came to her senses, and immediately urged Jiang Yan silently with her eyes, looking a little impatient.

Because although the snacks that Jiang Yan bought when she took her shopping before were also delicious, they were only from ordinary chefs after all, and they obviously did not reach the level of 'deliciousness she had never enjoyed' that Jiang Yan had promised before, and it was obviously not a real 'big meal'.

"Mi ——!"

As if he heard the topic he cared about, a snow-white soft ball suddenly came out of Jiang Yan's pocket of clothes unwilling to be lonely, and shouted excitedly.

It's none other than the slime 'Little White'.

"Yes, yes, yes, I won't miss you. Jiang Yan patted the snow-white soft ball that came out of his head and said with a smile.

In the previous battle with Lily's Yu Tianlong, Xiao Bai's performance was really good, relying only on his own ability, and he still won the battle without revealing more abilities, of course Jiang Yan didn't mind rewarding it.

"Calculating the time, it should be almost ready, right?" Jiang Yan muttered, and then, a reply from the Internet made him feel relieved.

"Okay, let's go. ”

Jiang Yan pulled Lily out of the food street and came to the side of the main road in the imperial capital, and then stood here and waited.

On the road in front of you from time to time, you can see horse-drawn carriages, spirit guide cars, and even beast mounts directly riding like flying, etc., and various styles of transportation are running back and forth, and there are already some rudiments of the endless flow of vehicles on the highway in the modern bustling city that Jiang Yan remembers.

"What's wrong?" Lily asked as she looked left and right, not knowing what Jiang Yan was doing when she suddenly stopped here.

"Wait a minute, I've sent a message to the maid to pick us up in the spirit car. Jiang Yan explained.

"Oh. So Lily waited quietly.

After only a short while, a spirit guide car on the road suddenly braked sharply and stopped in front of Jiang Yan and Lily.

Is it Jiang Yan's spiritual guide car that has arrived?

Lily was a little surprised, obviously it had only been less than a minute since Jiang Yan sent out the message, and this speed seemed to be as fast as expected.

Originally, Lily thought that this was the maid that Jiang Yan said had arrived, but when she turned her head, she saw that Jiang Yan also looked puzzled.

"Don't look at me, it's not this one, Gina has to be a little slower to arrive. Jiang Yan shrugged, not knowing what the path of the spirit guide car parked in front of him was, so he pulled Lily back two steps.

Without the two of them having to wonder for too long, the door of the spirit guide car opened, and a blonde young man about fifteen or sixteen years old, who was wearing the uniform of the National Elf Academy with the same style as Lily and Hal, and the neckline was embroidered with a dark gold thorn carved pattern, stepped out of the car, looked at Jiang Yan and the two with a smile, and after only staying on Jiang Yan for half a second, he turned to Lily.

"Yo-Lilyluca, I didn't expect to meet you here, I almost thought I had the wrong person. The boy looked eagerly at Lily, and the look of admiration in his eyes was almost undisguised.

"Lily, it turned out that I was looking for you?" Jiang Yan glanced at the other party, and after his gaze lingered on the coat of arms of the other party's uniform collar for a moment, it fell on the other party's face. It was found that although this blonde boy had a white face and handsome facial features, he had a dull color in his eye sockets, and although his pupils seemed bright, there was a faint evil intent lingering in the depths.

Especially when he looked at Lily at this time, the evil intent hidden in his eyes increased a little, which made Jiang Yan, who was very observant, couldn't help but feel a surge of disgust.

Because of the evil gaze hidden by the other party, Jiang Yan has seen it many times, and when he occasionally followed Gina to go shopping in the past, he often saw the same color in the eyes of some passers-by.

Jiang Yan turned his head to look at Lily and asked, "Is it a friend you know?"

Lily shook her head dryly, "Not a friend. ”

Jiang Yan said in his heart when he heard this, sure enough, this kind of guy is not the type that Lily will like.

Others may not be able to see it, but he who knows Lily well finds that the girl's mood has changed slightly compared to before.

Although Lily's pretty face is usually very light, after seeing this young man, it suddenly became a little colder, which is a sense of indifference that only comes after seeing someone you hate.

"Lilyluca, I'm a little sad to say that, I know I've always treated you as a friend. The blonde boy said with a light smile, but there was no sadness on his expression at all.

On the contrary, this kid looked at Lily's gaze as if he was looking at a work of art, although he deliberately hid it, Jiang Yan's eyesight was so keen, how could he not see that the eyes of this thing were almost like they were going to lick and keep peeking at Lily's body.

Of course, Lily was also aware of it, and her face turned a little colder.

Jiang Yan squeezed her little hand, and then moved sideways to stand in front of Lily, blocking the blonde boy's rude sight.

Not polite at all, Jiang Yan said in a cold tone: "Boy, you make my family's Lily a little unhappy, don't you restrain yourself?"

"Your family's ...... And this kind of affectionate title......" The blonde boy seemed to pay attention to Jiang Yan at this time, his eyes flashed with a cold color, and then he hung up a sunny smile, glanced at Jiang Yan, and asked with a smile, "Who are you?"

"I'm not interested in getting to know you. Jiang Yan said lightly.

The subtext is: I'm not interested in getting to know you, so there's no need to tell you who you are.

When the blonde boy heard this, his smile immediately retracted a little, looked Jiang Yan up and down, and said, "Little guy, it seems that you don't welcome me?"

Jiang Yan pursed his lips, he didn't have much reaction to being called a 'little guy', anyway, his current body was indeed just a ten-year-old child, there was nothing to refute.

The blonde boy looked at Lily behind Jiang Yan again, his gaze moved down, and fell on the hands of the two of them pulling together, and in an instant, Jiang Yan clearly saw a fierce light appear in his eyes for a moment.

Then, the blonde boy said to Jiang Yan with a smile: "I didn't expect that in addition to Howl's group, Lily Luka would have a friend like you. ”

"Xia Liu......" Jiang Yan's eyes were a little strange...... Although he knew that the other party didn't mean that, but to him, the pronunciation of the other party's name really sounded like an indecent word.

But soon, Jiang Yan's eyes narrowed again: "Gulund? There is also the coat of arms of the Black Thorn Flower...... The biggest slave merchant in the empire?"

"Haha, it turns out that even a little brother like you has heard of my family's name?" Xia Liu nodded with a more smile: "That's right, I am the next chief heir of the Gulund family, little brother, if you are interested in the future, welcome to take care of my family's business." ”

Jiang Yan tugged at the corners of his mouth, and said in his heart that this was a bit of a coincidence.

For various reasons, there are slaves in this world, and the empire that advocates the supremacy of power does not prohibit the sale and trading of slaves, as long as it does not violate the relevant laws formulated by the empire, such as illegal slave hunting, plundering civilians, etc., are strictly prohibited.

But such people as prisoners of war, those who voluntarily sold themselves, those who owed unpaid debts, and those who committed felonies, such people were allowed to become slaves by the Empire.

Of course, even if the empire had relevant legal restrictions, there was no guarantee that the slave trade would be 'legal'.

As long as the benefits are sufficient, businessmen dare to trample on any laws and morals, and this kind of saying is also popular in this world.

But at least, on the surface, no one will blatantly go against the rules of the empire, and even if they want to make small moves, they will put it in the dark.

The Black Thorn Chamber of Commerce of the Grund family is one of the largest slave chambers of commerce in the empire, and it has a lot of industries under its banner, and in terms of wealth alone, it is rumored that it can even rival some middle and upper class nobles.

According to the intelligence collected by Jiang Yan's mobile network, this Black Thorn Chamber of Commerce is the kind of black merchant who likes to secretly carry out small actions behind the laws of the empire.

Of course, the other party is well disguised on the surface, and it seems that he still has dealings with some bigwigs in the upper echelons of the empire, so that he can frequently commit crimes in secret, but he has not overturned so far, but has a tendency to become bigger and bigger in recent years.

The reason why Jiang Yan felt that it was a coincidence was because the Black Thorn Chamber of Commerce of the Gulunde family had a lot of fate with him—although this fate was all not very good.

When Jiang Yan first came out of the research institute and transferred to the emperor's ** department, the empire gave him a forged birth information, which was nominally adopted by the Gulunde family's chamber of commerce and sold to orphaned slaves in the military department.

One of Jiang Yan's original contractors, Jeno, who was originally an underground gladiator, was also named 'Black Thorn' in the slave gladiatorial arena where he was before, and obviously, it was also one of the properties of the Gulund family!

If Angus hadn't fished it out, Jeno would still have to struggle desperately in the Colosseum of Black Thorns.

What's more, one of the two maid ladies who are now serving Jiang Yan also has some cause and effect with this Gulund family, and it is also a negative kind.

Based on these reasons, Jiang Yan can be said to have a really bad impression of the Black Thorn Chamber of Commerce and the Gulunde family, especially when the young master of the other party still seems to want to beat the people around him!

Speaking of this Gulund family, Jiang Yan remembered something that he was about to forget.

Although the maid of his own family had never mentioned the past to him, for the sake of her loyalty now, as her current master, Jiang Yan felt that she needed to do something for her.

Anyway, for Jiang Yan's current ability, it's just a gesture.

"Do you want to take care of the business?" Jiang Yan smiled, glanced at Xia Liu meaningfully, and said, "Yes, I will definitely take good care of it when the time comes." ”

Xia Liu felt that the black-haired boy's tone at this time was a little inexplicably weird, as if something was wrong, but he couldn't think of what the problem was for a while.

Shaking off the inexplicable feeling, Xia Liu glanced at Jiang Yan and Lili's hands that were still holding each other, hiding the jealousy in his heart, and asked Jiang Yan and Lily with a light smile: "I saw that you seemed to be waiting on the side of the road for a while, do you want to go somewhere?"

Although it was asked by the two of them, Xia Liu actually stared at Lily and asked.

At the end, he smiled at Jiang Yan apologetically and said, "Ah...... Sorry little brother, my psychic car is a two-seater, please forgive me for not having any spare seats left for you. ”

"No need. Jiang Yan glanced at him, pulled Lily to another spirit guide car that had just stopped on the side of the road, skillfully pushed the door and sat in.

Looking at the tail of the car that was gradually moving away, Xia Liu squinted, and the depths of his eyes were as cold and dark as a poisonous snake. After a long time, he pulled a communicator out of his pocket.

"It's me...... Investigate a person for me, characterized by...... The other party is very close to Lililuca, and you can start to investigate from this aspect...... Okay, I'll know the answer before sunset tomorrow, no problem, right?"

After hanging up the communication, Xia Liu got into his spirit guide car and smiled lowly.

"Little ghost, you dare to talk to me like this after knowing my identity, let me see what you rely on......"

After sneering for a few seconds, he frowned slightly.

The person who was sitting in the driver's seat of the spirit guide car just now...... I don't know if it's an illusion, he feels that the other party seems to look at him, it is a very piercing sight, even through the special one-way opaque car window, he can vaguely feel it.
