Chapter 93

“Oh my gosh! Who is your employer? What kind of lunatic uses a woman as her drug dealer?”

Contrary to Annette's concerns her, the woman was not very interested in her identity her itself her. Grouty no. 4 was a lawless area, and drug dealers selling drugs and drug dealers who were their messengers were scattered everywhere. Their faces covered in shabby robes.

It was because of the old robe that she first mistook Annette for a drug dealer. But since she knew that Annette was a woman, she had only one reason to be angry. She felt repulsive towards the drug dealer who used women as drug dealers even though he knew it was dangerous!

“What kind of moral idiots are there?! No matter how much you use and throw away medicine, isn't this too much? I know it's dangerous!!”

The woman cursed at her apothecary, clutching the tobacco in her hand.Dried powder dripped from the loosely rolled tobacco in her rough wrapper.Only then did Annette roughly grasp the situation.

No matter how lawless the zone was, there were some kind of unspoken rules. One of them is that drug dealers must be male. Still, drug addicts were disgusting things that would rub their stuff on even men when they were drunk. Thing about addicts is that they don't even feel pain when things are cut.

But how much more does he make a woman sell drugs! It was certain that in less than two days, Grooty Number 4 would be gone without even knowing a mouse or a bird. Front of her.

'Not even pitiful. I want to meet an apothecary by mistake.'

Normally, I wouldn't have been interested in the drug dealer's face her, but I thought it would be better to look at it this time. That way, even if a body is discovered sooner or later, the body will be recovered. Of course, this 'probation' usually had a stronger meaning of selling the money left over from the corpse, but anyway.

The prostitute shoved her head under Annette's large hood her. The heavily made-up woman's eyes she were blue with brown speckles. Just as her eyes were about to peek at her own face her through the slit of her hood her, Annette hurriedly grabbed her by the shoulder to stop her. Then her hot-tempered woman gave her barack annoyance.

“Oh, look at that face! Why are you covering your face so tightly? It's okay! Besides you, there are drug dealers everywhere!! There is nothing to be ashamed of!”

At the sound of her clear voice, the eyes of the people around her slowly turned this way. Someone said, 'Eren is doing that again. I must have run out of energy,' a voice muted. Because of the drug energy accumulated in her body, it must be that she has severe emotional ups and downs.

Nonetheless, Annette still desperately held her face pressing her hood down Fortunately, because Annette was shorter than her counterpart, the angles from which she peeked at her face her didn't come out very well. End fell a little bit with a hissing sound.

“Done! I'm not curious about your face either!! So, do you think you're prettier than me? I don't want to waste any more time, so give me some medicine!!”

The white palm, with a little bit of soot from the beginning of the year, faced Annette. Annette noticed that her fingers were trembling slightly. Became drug dens like this?

In any case, as long as it attracted people's attention, it was necessary to pretend that it was not a dealer. Annette, who had been thinking about it, rummaged through her sleeve. Gestures of a drug dealer as much as she could.

“Here, something new. I'll give it to you for free, so give it a try.”

Annette let go of her pretense and casually placed something on the palm of her hand Seeing this, the woman tilted her head She was accustomed to smoke-inhaled drugs, and this was the first time she had seen drugs of this type.

'What is this?'

It didn't look like it was burned at all, piled up in a thin silver foil wrapper. Somehow the shiny wrapping paper made it look expensive, but that couldn't be the case. Because this was a slum. Perhaps she saw herself wrong.

“How do you burn this?”

“It's not burning, it's eating. Peel off the wrapping paper like this and put it in your mouth with an ah.”

Annette handed her the finest raw chocolate she had received from Raileen earlier.In the first place, Deltium did not produce raw materials for chocolate.Therefore, all chocolate had to be imported from abroad, and it was so expensive that only aristocrats could not afford it because it was easy to melt or spoil on the way.

Of course, there was no way the prostitute who sold herself on Grootie 4th Avenue had ever eaten chocolate. She accidentally ate the raw chocolate Annette had put in her mouth, and her eyes widened. Something bittersweet yet sweet, rich yet soft, left a deep aftertaste. It was pitiful to feel it melt away as it entangled on the tip of the tongue her. She stared at Annette in surprise as she covered her own mouth her.

“Hey, is this a new drug? What is your name?”

“Nibs.”

Instead of the name 'cacao nibs', Annette only gave a brief description of the end. Fortunately, the woman didn't notice that it wasn't drugs. It must have been because chocolate retained its bitter taste. She mumbled the chocolate aftertaste in her mouth her, then glanced at Annette with a wistful look.

“That, over there. Maybe it's because it's new, so it's a bit weak? You don't feel like spreading anger. It's a bit lacking.”

So I was told to give me another one. Anyway, how did you not know that this wasn't a drug? Annette placed two or three more chocolates in the palm of her hand her with the lithe manner of a drug dealer. To give the whole box to her heart her, but if she did, she might be suspicious.

“This is a slow-acting item, so don't be impatient. Maybe in 30 minutes you'll feel better. Try more samples and come back if you like it.”

“… Contrary to appearances, do you know how to do business? Good! Eat it and tell me. Thank you!”

Contrary to her hacky demeanor her, the woman wrapped her chocolates carefully and turned around. It was time to get down to business. Annette looked at the woman's back for a moment, then she let out a sigh of relief and turned her around. Then noticed a man standing in front of her nose and she was startled.

“Oops. She came looking for a lost girl, and she witnessed an unexpected good deed.”

Raileen, now with dark blue hair, was looking this way She drew a good line through his red lips Her Marlow acted as if he had just come looking for it, but he must have been watching from the beginning.

Annette didn't bother to ask him obvious questions like “Where did you go, why did you leave me?” In the first place, he was a man who wanted to see himself embarrassed, so he left. Heart to entertain her by asking the questions Rylin wanted.

“So did you find the casino? I don't have much time now.”

“Of course. Shall we go?”

Annette grabbed his outstretched arm as if escorting her and moved on.Now it really was time to catch Ben March.

The casino located on Grooty 4th Avenue looked like a huge circus from the outside. It was not a building, but a large, sturdy tent, and the outer walls were painted in colorful white and red. Inside, the lanterns that lit up like broad daylight hurt the eyes.

Annette stepped inside and frowned at the thick tobacco smell. It was already a poorly ventilated place, so the smoke was hazy and terrible. But none of the people crammed into it seemed to care. Their bloodshot eyes as they looked at the deck of cards , and the way they turned their heads toward the dice were terrifying, like those who had lost their minds.

Annette looked around but couldn't find Ben March. The smoke was thick and there were too many people. There were game boards and all kinds of objects piled up in all directions, obstructing the view. Annette sighed and looked up at Raileen.

“What should I do now?”

“Wait a moment. I will look for it.”

Fortunately, it seemed that Raileen also wanted to get out of here quickly. She was Rylin, who would normally have been like, 'Well, what do I do?' Passing by.

The magic cast on Raileen served to distract people's attention. However, in such a small and crowded place, it was no different from poison. People who were unaware of Rylin's existence rammed into him and tried to step on his feet. Rylin, disgusted by this, quickly took out a gold compass from his bosom.
