Chapter 243: Bewitching

Chapter 243: Bewitching (First update, please give me a guaranteed monthly ticket) Lumian looked at Janna, curled his lips and said: "That's because you don't have the awareness of being an 'assassin' yet, and you don't realize that you have entered the world of occultism. Otherwise, in the next month or two, you could have contacted some occult gatherings through Franca and collected some useful items. Although that would definitely not be as good as the healing potion I just gave you, at least it would allow you to do something and not have to watch your mother's condition deteriorate." Instead of getting angry and responding with swear words as usual, Janna remained silent for a few seconds and said "hmm". This made Lumian a little confused, so he could only say "tsk tsk": "Of course, you don't have much money, and you're burdened with debt and tuition fees. Even if you really attend the occult gathering, you can't afford anything. It's more of an opportunity for you to earn money or items by taking on commissions." At this time, Janna's brother Julian had rushed over with a doctor and two nurses. The doctor looked at Elodie and said doubtfully: "I remember that there seemed to be no need to rescue her..." "You remembered it wrongly." Lumian interrupted the doctor calmly. The doctor had already treated many injured people and was so busy that his memory was already confused. Hearing what he heard, he felt that he must have recognized the wrong person, so he simply treated the remaining external injuries of Elodie and asked the movers to put her on the carriage and wait to be sent to the hospital.

………… Connecting the Noor district and the market district is a bridge called the Passy Bridge, which is one of the five bridges across the Serenzo River in the city of Trier. Right next to the Passy Bridge is the Holy Palace Hospital funded by the "Eternal Sun" Church. As a believer of the "Eternal Sun", Elodie was sent here and placed on the top floor of the white six-story building, squeezed into the same ward with five other injured people. Watching the doctors and nurses drawing blood, doing tests, or hanging up IV bottles, Jana, who was standing against the wall, sighed softly: "The hospital has changed a lot in recent years..." "Hmm?" Lumian asked in confusion. Janna said with a slightly gloomy expression: "A few years ago, when my dad and his friends were sent to the hospital, those with more serious injuries underwent surgery directly, while those with less serious injuries were bandaged and given medication, and told to wait and see the effects. No blood was drawn, and the examinations were just simple. It's completely different from now, and the whole process seems to have changed." "That's a good thing." Lumian nodded. Looks more professional. While the two were talking in low voices, Janna's brother Julian had been busy cooperating with the doctors and nurses. He sometimes answered questions about the injured person's physical condition, sometimes helped move the infusion stand, and sometimes was sent to the pharmacy. By the time the white coats had finished their busy work, he hadn't returned yet. The doctor in charge of Elodie walked up to Janna with a clipboard, took a look at her rose-colored dress, and his expression softened a little. "Elodie is your mother?" he asked. "Yes." Janna nodded. The male doctor considered for a moment and said: "Your mother's condition is better than I expected. It seems that she doesn't need surgery at the moment. Of course, this is just a preliminary assessment. The specific situation depends on the results of various examinations. "That's the good side. The bad side is that your mother's body is seriously damaged. She may have to stay in the hospital for several months, half a year or a year. Even if she recovers, she will not be able to recover to her previous state and will be in a weaker state. "The first two days of emergency treatment costs were paid by the church's charity foundation, and will be deducted after the factory's accident compensation comes in. You will have to bear the subsequent treatment costs yourself. This is not a small amount, so don't expect too much from the accident compensation. According to my experience, it takes an average of three to five years to get it. You have to understand that in order to protect business, our laws in Intis favor factory owners and bankers." Jana did not hesitate: "I will keep my mother in treatment until she is fully recovered."

She had already thought about it. If she had to take out a large sum of cash at once, she would borrow from Franca and Lumian and then repay it in installments. If she had to pay for the treatment on a monthly or weekly basis, she could live frugally, reduce the amount of the original debt, and cover it with the income from her part-time job as an underground singer. No matter which method she chose, she couldn't be an underground singer for only one year as she had expected. It might take two or even three years. The doctor looked at Janna's appearance and her little dress and said no more: "Then take this slip and go to the finance window on the first floor to pay 200 Felkins in advance." 200...Janna breathed a sigh of relief, signed the notice with her real name "Chelia Bello", took the form, and went down the stairs. On the way, she glanced at Lumian who was following her, hesitated and said: "If, if I need to pay a large medical bill later, I think I would like to borrow some from you." Janna has always been a stubborn person with her own principles. When she worked hard to make money in several dance halls in the market area, she never thought of borrowing from Franca or asking her to help arrange a part-time job that was easy and paid well. But now, for the sake of her mother Elodie, she decided to give up this insistence. Although Lumian had "squandered" until he only had 4000 Felkin left, and had already prepaid most of the income he could get from the Breeze Ballroom, and was still prepared to pay another Felkin in exchange for the "Arsonist" Beyonder characteristic, he was not embarrassed at all at this time, and said nonchalantly: "it is good." Janna looked at him suspiciously: "I thought you would hesitate for a while. I heard from Franka that you have something important to do recently that requires a large sum of cash." Lumian smiled: "That's for promotion, to buy the main materials for the Arsonist, but that doesn't stop me from lending you money. As a Beyonder and the leader of the Savoy Party, I can help you get enough money even if I don't have a single kopek. "The simplest way is to have René sign a long-term contract with you, advance you 10,000 Ferguinea, and then deduct 50% of your income from the dance hall every day to repay you in installments. When you have paid it back, the contract will naturally terminate." Jenna was silent for a moment, and found that something that made her extremely embarrassed and troubled was so easy and simple in Charles' mouth. Lumian glanced at her sideways, smiled and said: "As an 'Assassin', you shouldn't have to worry about these medical expenses. If you want to get promoted in the future, the money you need will be in tens of thousands. “You need to change your mindset now and stop taking the law so seriously. You just heard that the laws of Intis do not protect the poor. We can only protect ourselves. “When you have thought it through, we will kidnap the factory owner and steal enough cash. After the verdict comes out and he pays your father’s accident compensation, you can donate the money to people in need. "As long as we do it cleanly, coupled with Franka's anti-divination, the probability of success is very high, and we won't be discovered afterwards. It's unlikely that a factory owner like that would have a Beyonder bodyguard." Jane's heart was moved by what she said. She hesitated for a moment and said: “I always feel like something is wrong… "Fuck, are you the 'instigator' or will I be the 'instigator'? How can you be so good at bewitching people? "Sooner or later, you will pay the price for wantonly violating the law, right?" Lumian smiled and said: "I haven't finished speaking just now. We only do what is necessary and cannot act recklessly. Not only will it bring danger, but it may also increase the risk of losing control. Kidnapping the factory owner is to get back the compensation that your family should have received a long time ago." Jenna was silent again. Seeing that they were about to reach the first floor, she said quickly: "I'm going to the bathroom." When she came out of the bathroom, she had a stack of 200 Filkins in her hand. Seeing Janna pay the first installment of the treatment fee in advance, Lumian looked at her rose-colored dress and said: "You can't take care of the patient like this. I'll go back to the ballroom and bring your clothes over, and I'll also ask for leave for you. "If your mother's condition shows any signs of worsening, come to me or Franca immediately." He had just observed Elodie's fortune and confirmed that her condition was no longer critical, but her condition had not yet improved and was a bit confusing. It might depend on the effectiveness of the hospital's treatment. "Yeah." Janna pursed her lips and nodded.

………… The second floor of Breeze Ballroom. Lumian was just about to go find manager René to explain the matter of Janna and ask him to reschedule tonight's concert when he saw Louis coming towards him. Louis glanced around and said in a low voice: "Boss, about half an hour ago, the boss sent someone to deliver a bag of things and put it in the financial safe, saying it was for you." The things that the boss sent... the auxiliary materials for the "Arsonist" potion? As expected of a mid-sequencer of the "Hunter" path... Lumian nodded slightly, happily walked through the cafe and entered the corridor on the second floor. As soon as he opened the financial safe, he felt a slight burning sensation. There were three glass bottles in the gray cloth bag: one was filled with red blood, which was bubbling with bubbles, and a little fire leaped out with each burst of the bubble; one had blood-colored powder at the bottom, and one contained a finger-sized stone that emitted a red fluorescence. Fire salamander blood, red-crowned balsam powder, magma pyroxene... they were indeed the auxiliary materials for the "arsonist"... Lumian picked up the items with satisfaction. ………… Outside Apartment 3, 601 White Coat Street. After leaving the Breeze Ballroom, Lumian came here directly to find Franka, intending to borrow 4000 Fel Gold, using his share of the "Harvest Festival" as collateral. After opening the door and seeing Lumian, Franca said with a "tsk". "You know what? There was an explosion in the factory in the southern part of the market area. A lot of things have happened in the market area recently. I feel like a rainstorm is coming soon." Hearing this, Lumian instantly remembered something. He said in a deep voice: "There was an accident at the Goodville Chemical Plant, and the owner of the Goodville Chemical Plant went to the congressman's office this morning."
