The strange gaze frightened the latter so much that he even trembled in the corner...

at this time.

The locked special explosion-proof door was opened.

Locke came in and said in a gentle tone.

"Narcissa, today's experiment is about to begin again. Come on, kid."

When she saw Locke, she felt relieved.

"good....."

However, before she could finish her words, she saw that "person" stand up and walk in front of Locke.

"Very good, it seems you are used to it. Come on, don't worry, it will be over soon."

Loken smiled and left the room with the shadow.

"Let's go, Narcissa."

However, from beginning to end, his eyes never fell on Narcissa who was trembling in the corner.

It was as if... in his eyes, the only person in the room was that dark shadow, "Narcissa".

(Everyone can rest assured that the plots used before, such as the plot of fighting part of oneself, have been used before, and we will not repeat them.)

(Well, I won’t spoil more.)

Chapter 49: Any trader will eventually -

"Phew...I got the ticket."

The Doctor glanced at the green ticket in his hand and sighed.

She turned her head and looked at the Victorian-style New Year decorations in the station.

It’s the New Year… So, this kind of festival will actually lead to an increase in the flow of people.

He lowered his head and looked at the green ticket in his hand, which had the standard Victorian font on it.

Third class ticket, carriage 11, seat number: 1a

Then she realized that the cabins and ticket prices in places like this were categorized according to their level.

The cheapest ticket available at the moment was the third-class ticket she had in her hand. The second-class ticket was twice as expensive, and she didn't even dare to look at the first-class ticket.

In her current situation and attire, she could only buy a third-class ticket, and only the price of a third-class ticket was in line with her identity and temperament as a country girl...

Well, actually she thought the Victoria steam train ticket price was too expensive.

She already felt that it was too outrageous.

As for the second-class ticket, considering that she might encounter some money-burning situations in the future, all she could do was to save as much as possible.

"Huh... I have to survive alone... No, cheer up, I can survive alone..."

Just as she stood there cheering herself up, a dazzling white flashed from the corner of her sight among the bustling crowd.

Laurentina?!

The doctor was stunned, then subconsciously tightened the red prismatic pendant hanging around his neck.

And....left room....

No no no no, that's not right! I can't get close to them...and it's not such a coincidence...how could it be possible...

The doctor shook his head, then hid behind the crowd, poked his head out and observed carefully with his eyes squinted.

The other person was a white-haired girl who was dressed in fashionable and beautiful clothes, with a hint of peace on her delicate face.

She looked as if she was waiting for someone.

The point, though, for the Doctor was – she didn’t recognize that face.

...Not Laurentina...

She didn't even realize it, but she felt a little depressed inside.

"No, no, no, I was wondering how could such a coincidence happen? It's normal!"

The doctor patted his face to cheer himself up, then stopped observing the strange white-haired girl and walked towards the waiting room.

On the other side of the crowd, Miss Killer Whale looked a little helpless, not knowing that someone had just had a huge mood swing because of her. She just stood there, waiting for the shark to come back.

Shark said she went to buy the ticket first.

........

...

"Alas... I have to go to Londinium in the end. I wonder if the cost of living there will be too high for me to afford..."

Aiden Wilton walked towards the ticket booth and sighed.

"I'll call my dad and ask for it... No, pass it up. I've already graduated and I'm an adult... I'll try to find a job in Londinium when the time comes."

As he thought about it, he walked towards the ticket office for the second-class carriage.

However, just as he lowered his head to think about what kind of temporary job he could find to support himself, the voice of a girl suddenly came from behind him.

Strands of white hair suddenly entered his field of vision, like waves crashing past his eyes.

"Excuse me, please make way, please make way——"

"Oh......"

Aiden subconsciously moved aside, then he looked at the other person's face...it seemed familiar.

Have I seen this person somewhere before?

Looking at the large and small bags she was carrying, and the long square box behind her...

I always feel like I've seen her, but...it doesn't match my memory.

"This is the nearest ticket office... Sorry, two tickets."

Zuo Jian leaned against the counter in front of the ticket seller and thought as if he was relieved.

Fortunately, I caught up.

"Okay, this is the ticket you requested. It records your carriage and seat. Please keep it."

After swiping the fare that made Zuo Jian feel uncomfortable, the conductor handed him two blue tickets.

"Okay, trouble."

I took it over from the left and felt relieved.

By the way, Laurentina seems to be coming towards me, so I have to go and meet up with her.

He picked up the large box on the ground, and at the same time carried other objects and walked towards the direction he sensed.

He didn't notice that a young man beside him was thinking hard with his head down.

Aiden lowered his head and touched his chin, frowning tightly.

He was still thinking about what happened to the lady just now.

It wasn't because the other person's appearance was so attractive to him, it was simply because... he was obsessed with trivial matters.

His teacher once told him that such a character is a good thing, but not entirely a good thing.

for example......

"That's not right. I must have seen him before. Why does it not match my memory? It doesn't make sense. It feels like the same person. Why doesn't it match?... It's such a weird feeling... Is it his temperament... or...?"

"No, no, no, that kind of thing is too vague and illusory. It's impossible. There is absolutely nothing wrong with my memory. I must have missed something——"

'Ladies and gentlemen, the train to the capital, Londinium, is about to arrive. Please take your tickets and get ready to board. This train will be the last train between the two places this year. Thank you for your support to the Steam Locomotive Group in the past year and...'

The broadcast sounded, interrupting Aiden's thoughts and bringing him back to reality.

Wait a moment? !

He seems to be here to buy tickets?!

damn it.

There was no time to think about anything else, Aiden quickly ran to the counter and shouted to the ticket seller.

"Sorry, one ticket, thank you."

"I'm sorry, sir, the lady just bought the last two second-class tickets. I'm sorry."

“What…what…”

Aiden's eyes widened.

, the teacher said that my character of sometimes exploring everything too much would harm him.

"Why don't you try to buy tickets for another location?"

"But the train will be arriving soon, please hurry."

The conductor pointed Aiden to the ticket office for other seats nearby.

"Thank you for the reminder, sorry to bother you!"

He let out a long sigh and then ran straight to the third-class ticket office.

By the way, when I took a steam train, I almost always sat in the second-class carriage because I heard that there were often reports of thefts in the third-class carriages.

Damn it, there's no other choice right now.

However, just as he was about to run to buy a third-class ticket, a somewhat thin Victorian old man suddenly grabbed him.

"Old man, I'm sorry, I have something urgent to do, please--"

However, the next moment, the old man suddenly took out a stack of blue tickets from his arms and looked at Aiden with squinted eyes.

"My friend, do you need money?"

"?! You have a second-class ticket?"

Aiden's eyes lit up, and then he asked with a look of surprise.

"Hey, how about it, do you want to buy it?"

The old man saw Aiden's expression and then smiled slyly.

"Yes, yes, yes, old man, just name a number."

He said this and then prepared to take out his wallet.

"Not much, 200 Victorian dollars."

The old man spoke slowly, and his voice seemed to freeze time, stopping Aiden's action of taking out the money.

"How much...how much?"

"The price is 140 Victorian coins, and it supports Longmen coins. 1400 Longmen coins, cash or credit card is acceptable."

As the old man spoke, he took out a dirty card machine from his waist.

"No... 1400 Longmen coins?! Why don't you just go and rob them? You can buy a first-class ticket with this money?!!"

Aiden looked at the old man in disbelief. He had expected the other party to raise the price on the spot, which was understandable.

But...he doubled the price to almost the same as the first-class cabin, which instantly made Aiden, a freshly graduated college student, realize the dangers of this society.

Damn it, you’ve met a profiteer.

"Tsk—" The old man glanced at Aiden impatiently, and then spoke.

"Look, there are no second-class tickets left now. I stayed up all night to find someone to buy these tickets. If you think they are too expensive, I think they are too expensive too."

"?"

Aiden stood there in a daze. For a moment, he wanted to say something in his heart, but his good personal qualities made him take a deep breath and then smile.

"I'm sorry.... I'm from a poor family, so I'd better buy a third-class ticket."

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards the third-class ticket sales office.

"Tsk, you're dressed like a nobody, but you can't even afford a ticket..."
