Lumian looked at Janna, curled his lips and said, "This is because you don't have the awareness of being an 'assassin' yet, and don't realize that you have entered the world of mysticism. Otherwise, in the next one or two months, you can contact some mystic gatherings through Franca and collect some useful items. Although it is definitely not as good as the bottle of healing potion I just gave you, at least you can do something and don't have to watch your mother's condition deteriorate.

"Janna didn't get angry and respond with profanity like usual, but remained silent for a few seconds," Well

"A sound.

"Of course, you don't have much money, and you're under the pressure of 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 glanced at Elodie and said doubtfully, "I remember that it seemed that there was no need to rescue her..."

"You remembered it wrong." Lumian calmly interrupted the doctor. The doctor had treated many injured people and was so busy that his memory was already confused. Hearing this, he felt that he must have recognized the wrong person, so he simply treated Elodie's remaining external injuries 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 Passy! It is one of the five bridges across the Selenzo River in Trier.

Next to the Passy Bridge is

The Holy Palace Hospital was funded by the "Eternal Sun" Church.

The believers of "Eternal Sun" were sent here and placed on the top floor of a 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 the past few years..."

"Hmm?" Lumian was puzzled. Janna said with a slightly gloomy expression, "A few years ago, when my father and his friends were sent to the hospital, those with more serious injuries were directly operated on, 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. Sometimes he answered questions about the injured's physical condition, sometimes helped to move the infusion stand, and sometimes was sent to the pharmacy. When the white coats finished their busy work, he hadn't come back yet. The doctor in charge of Elodie walked up to Janna with a clipboard, looked at her rose-colored dress, and his expression eased a little.

"Elodie is your mother?" he asked.

"Yes." Jana 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 results will depend 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' emergency treatment costs will be advanced by the church's charity foundation, and will be deducted after the factory's accident compensation comes in. The subsequent treatment costs will have to be borne by us ourselves. It's not a small amount, and you shouldn'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 businesses, our Intis laws favor factory owners and bankers." Janna didn't hesitate: "I will let my mother receive treatment until she recovers." 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 treatment on a monthly or weekly basis, she could live frugally, reduce the amount of repayment 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 took a look at Jana's appearance and her dress and said no more: "Then take this form and go to the financial window on the first floor to pay 200 Felkins in advance."

"She signed the notice, picked up the list, and walked 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 sum of medical expenses later, I want to borrow some from you." Janna has always been a stubborn person with her own principles. Before, when she was working in several dance halls in the market area and trying to make money, 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 her mother Elodie, she plans to let go of this insistence.

Although Lumian has

He had "squandered" until he had only 700 Felkin left, and had already taken out most of the proceeds from the Breeze Ballroom, and was prepared to pay another 4,000 Felkin in exchange for

The "Arsonist" Extraordinary Characteristics, but at this time he was not embarrassed at all, and said nonchalantly: "Okay." Jane gave him a suspicious look.

"I thought you would hesitate for a while. I heard from Franka that you need a large sum of cash for something important recently." Lumian smiled and said, "That's for promotion and to buy the main materials for the arsonist, but this will not affect my 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 cope." The easiest way is to let René sign a long-term contract with you, advance you 10,000 Fergolds, and then deduct 50% of your income from the dance hall every day to repay you in installments. When you have paid off the money, the contract will naturally terminate.

"Janna was silent for a moment, and found that the matter that made her very embarrassed and troubled was so easy and simple in Ciel's mouth. Lumian glanced at her and laughed, "As an 'Assassin', you shouldn't worry about such medical expenses. If you want to be promoted in the future, the money you need is 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 it won't be discovered afterwards. It's unlikely that a factory owner like that would have a Beyonder bodyguard." Janna's heart was pounding. After hesitating for a moment, she said, "I always feel like something is wrong..."

"Fuck, are you the 'instigator' or am I going to be the 'instigator'? How can you be so good at bewitching people?"

"Willful violation of the law will cost you sooner or later, right?" Lumian said with a smile, "I haven't finished yet. 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 a way to get back the compensation that your family should have received long ago." Janna was silent again.

Seeing that they were about to reach the first floor, she quickly said, "I'm going to the bathroom." When she came out of the bathroom, she had a stack of 200 Filkins in her hand.

Seeing that Janna had paid the first installment of the medical 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 you your previous clothes, and ask for leave for you at the same time." If your mother's condition shows any signs of worsening, come to me or Franca immediately.

"He has just observed Elodie's fortune and confirmed that her condition is no longer critical, but it has not changed for the better. It's a bit confusing and may depend on the hospital's treatment results.

"Yeah." Janna pursed her lips and nodded. On the second floor of Breeze Ballroom, Lumian was about to go to the manager René to tell him about Janna and ask him to reschedule tonight's concert when he saw Louis coming over.

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 the boss sent...

Auxiliary ingredients for the "arsonist" potion

A mid-sequencer from the Hunter Path. Lumian nodded gently, happily walked through the cafe and entered the corridor on the second floor.

As soon as he opened the safe, he felt a little burning. There were three glass bottles in the gray-white cloth bag: one was filled with red blood, and it was bubbling, and every time the bubble burst, a little fire jumped out; one had blood-colored powder at the bottom, and one contained a finger-sized stone that emitted red fluorescence.

Fire salamander blood, red-crowned balsam powder, magma pyroxene...

Supplementary materials for "The Arsonist"... Lumian picked up the items with satisfaction. Outside of Apartment 601, No. 3 White Coat Street.

Lumian left the Breeze Ballroom and came directly to find Franka, intending to borrow 4,000 Felkins.

After opening the door and seeing Lumian, Franca

He said with a "tsk"

"Did you know? 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 during this period, which makes me feel that a rainstorm is about to come." Hearing this, Lumian instantly remembered something.

He said in a deep voice: "There was an accident at the Goodville Chemical Plant, and this morning, the owner of the Goodville Chemical Plant went to the congressman's office."
