Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse
In the wind of South Island, there was always a fishy and astringent smell of the sea.
Before long, Jin Yuan stood still in the blue window afternoon. He was wearing a short-sleeve shirt and trousers embroidered with blue stripes on a white background. He straightened his waist, put his hands around his chest, and with an eternal smile, he quietly waited for the tea in the glass pot on the table to complete the transformation from red to white.
The kitchen he lived in was full of the luxurious style of South Island decoration, with silver bricks and gold ornaments, colorful wall covering, and many sizes of statues of Protestant style carved from blue crystal. South Island people like gold and silver, jewelry, fancy clothes, gourmet food, and all kinds of new machines, although most of them are not fundamentally different from what they usually see except for their shapes.
Take this room as an example. The floor was inlaid with gold, the ornaments on the top are covered with gold powder, and the picture frames on the wall were undoubtedly gold. If a man looked inside, the outlet gate of the inner pool was made of gold. The storage rack was carved with gold flowers, and the dishes and utensils are made of silver, but the bottom was inlaid with several gold patterns. Even the toilet in the bathroom next door was also golden. No doubt, if it was not for comfort, people on the southern island would inlay them with gems to show their extraordinary taste.
If the curtain was opened at this moment, the gold spread in this room would surely reflect the sharp light of countless dazzling eyes in the sunlight. Jin Yuan, who liked to keep a low profile, did not want to be baptized by the vulgar golden light. This was one of the reasons why he had covered the thick cloth curtain tightly, as for another reason.
He thought of it, the smile of his mouth suddenly congealed, his fingers tapped a few rhythms on his arm, turned his head to gaze at the corrugated curtain. He closed his eyes slightly and looked quietly as if he wanted to penetrate the barrier directly and catch what he wanted to see outside. Still, he could avoid being noticed by the other party.
He stopped for more than ten seconds, then took a few small steps forward. He slowly pulled out a small corner at the far side of the curtain with his index finger. He missed a little light in his narrow eyes and looked down cautiously with cold.
The sun was warm outside. The 10 story Pinnacle shaped luxury hotel, named Pamela, was located in the VIP guest room on the eighth floor. Downstairs were white marble tiles, shining in the hot sun, surrounded by green grass and terraces. Further away, there was a pure gold six-door luxury motorcycle on the road outside the alloy fence. There was no one around the car, but a huge heart-shaped pattern was displayed with white roses, but it had already withered and turned yellow under the scorching sun. On the wide roof, the Chinese character “Wen” was written with red and yellow flowers uniquely. With a box made of green leaves, it was quite pleasant to see.
However, this rare flower pattern did not bring any pleasant feeling as far as possible. He only had a cold frost in his eyes. It seemed that he would like to freeze the golden car into ice, then melt into pieces in the burning street, and completely disappear in the sky and earth. Although he did not see the damned entangled person, he could not help but feel bored when he saw Evil’s words.
What a haunting guy. He closed the curtain and looked back. Because of his negligence, the pot of tea had missed the best time. The tea, which should have been white, had turned grey and lost its luster.
“Tut…” Jin Yuan frowned and was secretly sorry for his hard-earned collection. He always pursued perfectionism, especially in the tea ceremony. He never hesitated to be perfect. He took the teapot and just wanted to pour it over and make it again, but suddenly, staring at the teapot, his heart was filled with ripples.
Such a troublesome prince on the stall had already made him feel tired. Even when he came to the South Island, he met with such a thing.
However, the one who did not care about it was so indifferent that he seemed to be bothering himself. Thinking of this, he felt anxious. He did not want to serve the white firework tea anymore. He took the pot and poured two cups into the porcelain cup on the table. He picked up the wooden plate and turned to the hall. As soon as he opened the door, he heard the rustling sound of the instant projector.
Although the temperature outside was nearly 40 now, under the hotel’s cooling system’s control, the room temperature was still pleasant, and he couldn’t feel much muggy. On a seagrass sofa lined with silk lining, Prince Shane looked up at the glittering block magic guiding machine in front of him, which was the latest research of tapas and was still in the trial stage. He was dressed in a black gold striped dress with local characteristics, a long decorative ribbon tied to his waist. With his high chin and lazy expression, he looked like a pure southern island aristocrat.
Seeing that he had nothing to do with recreation, Jin Yuan felt that his chest was stuffy, but his face was not obvious. He still walked up to him with an elegant step and put the tea plate on the low table, as if to attract his attention, and gave a crisp knock.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
“This thing is so interesting…” When Prince heard the urge, he didn’t look back. He touched a porcelain cup and praised himself, “I thought the electronic screen was a fantastic idea, but I didn’t expect to have an instant projector. It’s an unheard-of creation. When can we introduce Wong’s country… “
He sighed for the exquisite creativity of the southern Islander. He raised his teacup and sipped it. Suddenly, he noticed that there was some difference in taste, so he glanced back suspiciously. Jin Yuan was staring at the projector, which was constantly turning pictures. He seemed to be so absorbed that he didn’t have any interest in other things and showed no expression.
Shane knew from this that he was still depressed about it. However, for himself, that kind of dispensable little role didn’t need to be paid attention to, let alone more rational. However, after all, things were still caused by themselves. Now they were entangled with people and couldn’t get rid of them. It was very troublesome. It was no wonder that the other party is unhappy.
Realizing that Jin Yuan almost had to write on his face, he naturally would not mention it again. He drank the cup of tea clean and played it back to the wooden plate, tapped it gently, nodded his head, and exclaimed: “This tea is the most test of craftsmanship, and only you can make this taste…”
Jin Yuan’s eyelids didn’t tremble and didn’t answer when he heard this nonsense. He was still staring at the front as if immersed in the strange broadcast sound of the projector.
In this strange silence, Prince awkwardly tapped his finger on the sofa several times. Finally, he gave in and asked, “Still below?” He didn’t wait for the other party to answer, but he just comforted him: “If he had the courage, he didn’t dare to come up, so don’t worry about it Out of sight, out of mind. “
Jin Yuan finally moved his eyes away from the projector, staring at the back of the Prince’s head and twitching. Obviously, he was very dissatisfied with the evasive advice. Of course, he knew the guy was afraid to come up, but wouldn’t he go downstairs? Although he was only an apprentice, he was born in a well-known chaebol family on South Island and had a wide network of people. He could be regarded as a famous local villain here. They were planning to sneak into the count’s house and deal with the copper stinking aristocrats. Where could they escape?
It had been saying for a long time that they should be cautious in using the female identity. With such ostentatious beauty of “he,” how could they avoid trouble? The more he thought about it, the more flustered he was. He stopped drinking the remaining cup of tea and walked out of the room without saying hello. He strode back to the kitchen, put all the dishes and bowls into the pool, opened the sluice, and finally sighed under cover of the sound of the water. Still, his mind returned to the moment when the whole thing started.
Nearly a week ago, they found information about the suspected commander of the group of assassins, Vyrut, in the mercenary guild branch of Xinlan city. They flew to Tarpazi in the south for verification.
This young boy named Vyrut Chrono greatly influences Star City, the capital of the South Island. His father was the chief of staff of the military department, his Excellency count Chrono, and his mother was the second daughter of the old aristocratic navigator Earl Odelevis. Why did such a proud man join the assassin organization? The two men were very puzzled about this. They even doubted the authenticity of the entire investigation report for a time. However, they had no choice but to come here to take a chance.
The two took a mission to the South Island by the guild. Disguised as serving mercenaries, they boarded the airship and arrived at Star City after nearly a day’s sailing. They also came to the south for the first time. They were not familiar with the place of life. After taking a rest in the tavern and inquiring about some news, Shane, who had always been anxious, decided to take immediate action and sneak into the count’s house by magic and check their details first.
Jin Yuan was bold and brave. Of course, he has no objection. They immediately set out to arrive at count Crono’s mansion in the star city’s central mansion area. After entering the courtyard wall under the cover of illusion, they were startled by the rapid alarm. The harsh sound of the flute constantly attracted the inspectors around to check. They tried to change places in circles several times, but they could not eliminate this inexplicable warning sound. Seeing that the guards gathered more and more, and the mansion situation was not clear, the two had to withdraw from the gate and wait for the opportunity in a secluded corner not far away.
At that time, it was just afternoon, and the sun was baking the earth on the South Island. Heatwaves had already risen on the neat stone slab driveway, so hot that the rubber-soled shoes could almost be glued to it. The temperature was nearly 40. The remote corner of the wall could not even hear the wind. It was two strong physiques, and the stuffy dizzy heat suffocates breath.
They waited in silence for about half an hour despite the high temperature. They saw that the golden luxury car, which Jin Yuan still hated so much, turned from the corner and stopped in front of the count’s house with a light whistle. Out of the car came a young man with a black shawl and curly hair. He could not see his appearance clearly. He only saw the short sleeve robe with blue background and gold thread and all kinds of colorful gems. In the warm sunshine, it was gorgeous and dazzling, and it was bold.
Because of the hot weather all year round, people in South Island were used to having cool short hair. The only ones who liked to keep long hair are those noble children who pursue the elegance of Wong but didn’t care about production. The young man of unknown origin looked extraordinarily. Still, as soon as he got out of the car, he immediately hid in the shade in front of the door. He didn’t know what to say with the black Chamberlain who came to meet him. Then he let out a loud laugh with a long tune and swaggered into the door with his long robe.
The two of them hidden in the shadow of the corner in the distance, watching the figure covered by the colorful halo disappear in the courtyard wall, and turned their heads to look at each other. “Can be used,” both of them passed the message with their eyes. After waiting for a quarter of an hour, they finally saw the young man in splendid clothes appear in front of the gate, followed by a waiter with a black leather box.
The housekeeper who came to see off the guest stood in the shade of the tree and talked with him. When the waiter put the suitcase into the car, the young man stroked his hair gracefully. Then he ducked into the carriage, rolled up a heatwave, and roared away.
To maintain the illusion’s effect, they jumped on the uneven roof with their hands and chased the windy luxury car, and disappeared in the clear sky.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
