Battle of the Twin Cities: The Ninth Councilor

Chapter 196 Taking Jinx to Go Shopping
Janna chatted briefly with Marcus for a while and then disappeared.

Marcus immediately closed his eyes and sank into the system space to check, and found that all five skills of "Storm Fury Janna" had been unlocked, but the exchange price made him suspect that something was wrong with his brain.

"One, two, three, four, five...eight nine..." Marcus counted carefully several times, and finally exclaimed as if he was stunned by electricity: "Nine digits, a skill actually costs hundreds of millions of points!!!!"

Isn't this too exaggerated? ? ?
A blueprint of Project Yuan's skin can only be exchanged for a million points. Why is this skill so expensive? ? ?
"Could it be because of Janna's identity?" Marcus opened his eyes, his eyes revealing contemplation: "Storm's Wrath is considered a demigod in the setting, although the strength is at the bottom of the demigod due to the small number of believers. But it is indeed a real demigod..."

It seems very reasonable to exchange hundreds of millions of points for a demigod's skill?

Marcus could only convince himself that.

"Alas, a bunch of skills have not been unlocked, double-digit skin blueprints are waiting to be exchanged, and now there are five skills that can only be exchanged in units of [-] million..." Marcus looked out the window and sighed: "Drawing big cakes can't be like this Painting, what's the use of drawing a big cake that can't be eaten, no matter how beautiful it is?"

He looked back at Ike, and after being treated by Janna, his injury was completely stabilized.

Now just wait for him to wake up.

After thinking for a while, he walked out of the ward and called a nurse: "The wounded in the room is very important, please take care of him, and ask someone to notify me if there is any situation!"

The nurse looked embarrassed: "But there are so many patients in the hospital, we can't concentrate on taking care of one... Don't worry, Mr. Sheriff, I will take good care of him!"

"Then I'll trouble you." Marcus stuffed all the golden wheels he took out into the nurse's pocket, and left satisfied.

There is no such thing as money in this world. If there is, it must be because there is not enough money.

Marcus walked out of the hospital and went home to rest.

As soon as I got to the door of the house, I heard a slight gasp coming from the room.

His face suddenly became darker than a rag, and he opened the door and went in. Jinx was indeed at his house, and unceremoniously occupied his bed.

"Oh, weirdo, why are you back?" Jinx panicked when she saw Marcus, "Aren't you going to stay in the hospital until tomorrow?"

When Marcus saw the clothes thrown by Jinx on the ground, his face suddenly became a little unnatural.

He walked to the coffee table, put together several chairs, and took out the sheets and quilts that had been washed a few days ago to spread on them, without speaking the whole time.

Jinx felt apprehensive, poked her head out of the quilt and asked, "Weird, are you angry?"

"..."

Marcus paused in his hand, took a deep breath and said, "No, go to sleep first, don't stain my sheets, I'm so grown up and still wet the bed."

"U...bed-wetting?" Jinx blushed, "Oh..."

She didn't have the nerve to explain that she didn't wet the bed. The reason why the sheets were wet before was because she didn't wipe her feet clean after washing.

Marcus thought about it, anyway, no matter how hard he chased people away, Jinx would still sneak into his house when he got the chance, so he might as well keep her, anyway, he was there too, so he could watch her.

He went to the bathroom to take a shower, changed into his pajamas, got into the prepared quilt on the chair.

It was the first time for Jinx to spend the night in the same room as Marcos, and she seemed a little excited, turning her head to look at Marcos over there from time to time.

Marcus frowned: "Be quiet, don't disturb my rest."

The evolution day is getting closer and closer, and he has more and more things to do every day, all of them are trivial, and sometimes he can't be busy at all.

If he doesn't get a good rest at night, Marcos is worried that he will become irritable during the day.

Sure enough, Jinx stopped tossing and turning, keeping a posture and watching Marcus quietly.

Before he knew it, Marcus fell asleep, and when he woke up, the sunlight fell on his face through the window, causing him to raise his hand to cover it, only to find that his arm was heavy and pressed by a heavy object.

"What?" He turned his head and saw that Jinx had sneaked into him at some point. After falling asleep, Jinx looked very peaceful, without the temperament of a naughty girl when she was awake.

Marcus carefully pulled his arm out from under Jinx's head, opened the quilt and stood up, looked down for a moment, and quickly put the quilt back on Jinx.

"This girl has so many bad habits." He got up from the other side. Fortunately, the pajamas on his body were neat, and he didn't make any mistakes in principle.

Walk into the bathroom, brush your teeth, wash your face and shave, and when you walk out, you will see colorful body paint.

Jinx was up too, bending over to pick up the clothes she had thrown on the floor.

Marcus waited quietly for her to get fully dressed, and then said: "I can spare some time today, you go and wash up, and I will take you to buy some clothes later."

She bought razors with the money left to Jinx and the others before, and now she still wears the same old clothes. Although she washed them clean, it still doesn't look very suitable for the environment of Piltover.

Jinx was elated and jumped up: "Yeah!"

She rummaged through the box and found a set of toiletries, and walked to the bathroom, seeing Marcos' eyes twitch several times.

"Even the daily washing things are prepared, this girl..."

Jinx must have sneaked in a lot when she wasn't home!
Marcus slept late at night, and it was close to ten o'clock in the morning when he woke up today. The streets outside were crowded with people, and most of the businesses were engaged in various business activities in order to welcome the Evolution Day.

Some merchants invited circus troupes from other cities to perform some simple shows at the entrance, and the children of Piltover were attracted and surrounded the shops.

Some businesses hire people to dress up as clowns and distribute colorful balloons to passers-by at the door, with shop addresses and business items printed on the balloons.

There are also some merchants who don't engage in these bells and whistles, and just put a sign at the door, which says "Festival promotion, 8% discount for the whole site!" and the like.

Marcus took Jinx on the street, and Jinx circled around him like an elf, looking here and there, there was no time for Ansheng.

Those young and middle-aged women dressed like noble ladies on the side of the road would hide their faces and let out unexplained laughter when they saw Jinx. When Jinx got a little closer to them, they backed away again and again as if seeing a scourge. .

"Whose Dicheng mouse is here?" The sour man, who didn't see Marcus, exaggerated in a shrill voice, "You're so unqualified, you've stained other people's clothes!"

Jinx didn't take it seriously, made a face at them, and then ran to a more lively place.

The faces of the ladies changed drastically, and they said some nasty words to each other. Someone recognized Marcos, pointed at Jinx's back and said, "Sheriff Marcos, there is a bedbug from the bottom city over there, I suspect She took advantage of the hustle and bustle of Evolution Day to steal things from the crowd, go and arrest her!"

Marcus glanced at her lightly: "Do you have evidence to prove that she stole? If there is no evidence, she has the right to sue you for defamation."

"Evidence?" The lady froze for a moment, showing an expression that everyone understood. Isn't this just an excuse?It's enough to fool around casually, the main purpose is to arrest that Dicheng man, why is Marcus still serious?

"There is no evidence, right?" Marcus stopped talking to her, and was about to follow Jinx: "If there is no evidence, get out of the way, don't get in the way of my official duties!"

His expression was stiff, his tone was cold, and he looked businesslike.

In the eyes of the ladies, these behaviors are undoubtedly a loss of face.

The lady who asked Marcus to arrest Jinx had a sullen face, and then forced a smile: "My husband is the major shareholder of the Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce, and also a customer of Hexfly Gate..."

She wanted to say that if Marcos didn't even do this little favor, she would let the family member terminate the partnership with Hexflygate when she got home, and Hexflygate would lose a customer.

As a result, Marcus was too lazy to listen to her, and said impatiently: "Bauhinia Chamber of Commerce, right? From today on, no, from now on, you are no longer customers of any industry of HexTech, go home Wait for the liquidated damages sent by the Hexfly Gate.

With a smart and capable wife like you, your husband will be very happy when he sees the liquidated damages. "

"Excuse me."

Marcus pushed her away and left without looking back, leaving behind the dazed Bauhinia lady, wondering why the threats he had tried all the time before would not work here?
