The purple full moon is strange, and in the first half of the night, there are still some herb shops and medical halls lit up on the herb street.

"Click!"

A man in a black tweed coat and a scarf covering his face opened the lock on the door of Rupert's herb shop by the light of a kerosene street lamp in the distance.

"Whew!"

The door closed, and the man in the tweed coat pulled on his scarf, revealing Joyce's face.

"It's cold. ”

Joyce hissed, but instead of going to the medicine hall or to the stone houses on either side, he opened the leather bag in the courtyard and took out the silver necklace from his neck.

Removing the lump of dead leaves from the purse, Joyce peeled it off with his hands, revealing a glass bottle and a towel ball.

"Buzz!"

If anyone could see what Joyce was doing at this time, they would have found that he had released the metal figure, absorbing the emerald green liquid from the glass bottle, not missing even the few black seeds in the towel.

Leaning against the shadow of the courtyard wall, Joyce grinned until a few petals of seeds also turned into silk threads and sank into the mouth of the metal figure.

The emerald green mystical properties of the Shadow Crack Cutting Seeds, as well as a few hard and dry seeds, Joyce had been buried in the maple grove behind the Mage Tower on Vanilla Street for some time, and he had only taken them out today.

Watching the mysterious properties and a few seeds being absorbed by the metal figurine, Joyce felt a lot more relieved.

"After being sucked by the metal figure, the mysterious properties and the aura of the seed disappeared, and there was nowhere to find it. Re-inserting the metal figure into the coffin, Joyce carefully cleaned up the leather bag and dead leaves and dirt.

Joyce, who had already thought about it, left the herb shop and locked the door, and walked for a while before intercepting the rental carriage.

"The splendid private hall on Iron and Steel Flower Street. ”

Joyce told the coachman where he was going, and hurried to the car to relieve the cold.

Because the night market is closed early in winter, the carriage drove smoothly after entering the Knight Frank district, and it only took 20 minutes to reach the Iron and Steel Flower Street.

"I guess it's not good!"

Passing by the Flame Tenderness Ballroom, Joyce also looked into the ballroom, where there were only two dim lights.

"Your Excellency, please. ”

Compared with the Flame Tender Dance Hall, the Shengyan Private Hall is much more lively, not only are colorful lights hanging outside, but there are also young people wearing padded jackets outside to welcome guests at night, and when they saw Joyce get out of the car, they hurriedly invited him.

"My name is Joyce Rupert. Although Joyce didn't carry a cane and had an unkempt appearance, she was okay to wear.

"Mr. Rupert, please go upstairs and wait, and I will go and tell Ms. Mercer. The young man politely let Joyce in, and immediately motioned to a plump woman who stepped forward.

The stone floor of Sheng Yan's private hall shines brightly under the lighting.

Despite seeing the young woman in a woolen coat in the distance, Joyce went upstairs with the plump woman.

Walking up to the third floor, Joyce clearly felt the heating.

"Mr. Joyce. ”

Behind the stairs, Messer Matildel had already caught up.

Joyce smiled and didn't say anything more in front of the private girl.

"Go and open the biggest suite. ”

The young woman hurriedly arranged for the plump girl, and her expression was very solemn.

"No, I'm not used to being too big. ”

Joyce shook her head and rejected the young woman's offer.

Seeing that Joyce didn't talk about it, but really meant it, the young woman took him to a fancy suite.

"I'll stay here tonight, and I'll wash up and change my clothes, and trouble Lady Messer to bring in Lady Palemy from the Flame Tenderness Ballroom, and I'd like to discuss something with her. Joyce looked at the lavish lounge and said with a faint smile.

"Mr. Joyce, if there's anything I can do to help, I'm willing to do my best. The young woman seemed eager to ask what Joyce was looking for Palemie.

With the service of a young woman, Joyce took off her tweed coat.

As soon as she put her hand on her, the young woman could feel the dampness on Joyce's body, as if she was sweating and had not yet completely dried.

"Actually, it's not a big deal, I have a herb shop on Herb Street, and I want to find someone who can reassure me to take care of it. Joyce didn't hide it, and smiled generously.

"If that's the case, Ms. Palemi should be able to do it. The young woman hesitated, then smiled at Joyce.

Despite accepting the gift from the young woman in front of him, Joyce never thought that the young woman would trust him with all her heart, and after all, he had only been a full-fledged member of the MI for a short time.

"She's just looking for an opportunity, and my pounds aren't enough for her to have the intention of going ashore. Joyce chuckled inwardly.

"Mr. Joyce, it's time for you to get a haircut, and I'll have you dressed in dry clothes. The young woman whispered as she helped Joyce take off her shoes.

It wasn't until Joyce changed into a very textured bathrobe that the young woman went out to arrange it herself.

Joyce got up and walked to the bathroom, where she found it extremely spacious, with a large mirror and a round stone bath.

After a while, two private ladies came in and brought chairs and barbering tools into the bathroom, and the young woman Moser herself gave Joyce a haircut.

"I have arranged for someone to go and invite Ms. Palemie, and I am sure she will come over soon. The young woman gave Joyce a delicate haircut and spoke softly.

"Is the business of the private restaurant good?"

Joyce sat down and asked the young woman.

"Business is not easy to do, and recently there has been an accident in the Iron Blood Firm, and it is also very difficult for the Iron Hand Society. The young woman in the knitted dress smiled bitterly and felt helpless.

Joyce had heard Arrin mention the Iron and Blood Firm, and after the disappearance of Sean Redmay, the Iron and Blood Firm did not disperse, but re-elected the gang leader to maintain as much influence as possible over the tobacco business and the Nightlight Street vendors.

The young woman gave Joyce a cut, and it didn't take long.

By the time the young woman had the bathroom cleaned up, poured hot water into the bath, and surrounded it with a curtain, she had changed into a loose bathrobe.

"I don't need you. ”

Joyce could see that the young woman was in a vacuum, but she still refused her service.

Closing the bathroom door, Joyce secretly swallowed saliva, not only fantasizing about the scene of a young woman serving in a bathsuit, but also recalling the scene with the girl in the black dress on the night of the killing of Sean Redmay.

Joyce was not a gentleman, and the main reason why he rejected the young woman was that he didn't want her to see the lock coffin pendant.

After rinsing in the bathroom, Joyce entered the bath.

"Life would be wonderful if you didn't have to worry about anything!" said Joyce, who was sitting in the bath.

"Huh?"

After closing his eyes for a while, Joyce noticed through his perception that after his haircut, he seemed to look a little like when he was on Earth.

"Is it my delusion?"

Joyce was slightly surprised, and said incredulously.

Emerging from the bath, Joyster wiped the moisture from the mirror and looked at his figure.

"The figure is much stronger than when I was on Earth, and my appearance is somewhat similar, is it a subtle change that has occurred during this time?" Looking at himself in the big mirror, Joyce's expression moved.

"Write it down and look at it later. ”

Joyce jotted down details of his own appearance and posture in the mirror, apparently preoccupied with the discovery.

"Ms. Palemi has arrived. ”

The young woman waiting in the lounge not only did not change her clothes, but also poured wine for Joyce.

"Let her in. ”

Joyce, dressed in a clean bathrobe, nodded and sat down on the couch.

Palemi, dressed in a gown and a cotton dress, was brought into the suite and looked at Joyce's expression, hiding her mixed emotions.

"I'm sorry to bring you here so late, but I have a shop on Herb Street and want someone you can trust to help, would you like to do it?" Joyce said directly to Palemy.

"You and Mr. Yarlin are not small people, and even if I put my life on the line, I can't afford to accompany you. Palemi, dressed in cotton clothes, refused directly.

Joyce's main reason for wanting to invite Palemi was because he had fought with her when she was at the Flame Tenderness Ballroom.

Secretly saying a word of pity, Joyce remembered that Arrin said that Palemi was useless, and that a setback knocked her down.

"Let's go back. ”

Joyce didn't force Palemi and didn't go any further.

Things weren't as expected, and Joyce was somewhat disappointed to see Palemi get up and salute.

"If it was a vanilla street business, I thought Ms. Merser would be a better fit than me, after all, she was a surgeon. Palemie's words as she went out made the young woman sitting next to Joyce look different.

"She?"

Joyce looked at the young woman with a strange expression.

"Do you have any recommendations?"

After Palemi went out, Joyce asked the young woman with a smile.

"You go out too. ”

Seeing that the young woman was sitting on the sofa and not speaking, Joyce waved her hand impatiently.

"It's not easy to find the right person, and it's no wonder that I can't give people confidence, and I still have to go to the slave market in the end?" Joyce entered the bedroom with his leather bag.

In the middle of the night, just as Joyce was trying to sleep, the door to the suite was opened, and the young woman in the bathrobe went and returned, bringing a young girl with her.

"Her name is Bernice Matildel, and she's a doctor. ”

The young woman in the bathrobe introduced to Joyce at the door of the bedroom, and the girl standing behind her was very shy.

Sitting up from the bed, Joyce looked at the eighteen-year-old girl who had been brought forward, her eyes crooked and her smile like flowers.

"It doesn't seem to be very capable. ”

This is what Joyce said about the two women, and the ability he sees lies in the secret qi.

"Mr. Joyce, if you can trust me, maybe Bernice can help you, she is my daughter, she has been studying medicine for ten years, but this is not enough, whether it is a surgeon or an internist, she is rejected by the major churches, if she can become a witch doctor, she will definitely become stronger. After the young woman let the maiden go, she went to Joyce's bed.

"Do you want me to help her become a mystic, or do you want me to keep her?" Joyce raised his hand slightly, stopping the young woman from approaching.

"I know that mystical properties are not expensive, and you can have the opportunity to buy them for three to four hundred gold luo, but the key is that the major churches have a hostile attitude towards external secret cultivation, and once they find out, they are likely to dispose of them, and it is extremely dangerous to absorb mystical properties. The young woman observed Joyce's expression by the light of the candlelight.

However, in the face of the young woman's gaze, Joyce, who had a calm face, did not say anything, but only signaled that she could go out.
