Chapter 301 A Poor Guy in a Foreign Land
Shiraki and the Great Tree King wrestled on the bed for a while, which ended with Shiraki straddling the Great Tree King and holding its hands in his grasp.
Shiraki first put away the naginata, then released the hand that was holding the Great Tree King's hands.
After breaking free from Bai Mu's grasp, the Great Tree King put on his clothes while gesturing with his mouth towards the pile of clothes that had been knocked to the ground during their fight.
"Here, your clothes are over there. Go down and put them on quickly."
Before Bai Mu could react, the Great Tree King kicked him off the bed.
......
Because of the events that occurred on the trial platform yesterday, Navelette went to investigate the seal on the surface of the Primordial Sea of the Womb today.
After Navelette left, Funina also returned to Fontaine.
Although Bai Mu followed Funina back to Fontaine, he parted ways with Funina after arriving in Fontaine.
He didn't come to Fontainebleau for any particular person; he simply wanted to take a stroll around.
Therefore, after arriving in Fontaine and learning about Funina's thoughts, he decided not to stay with Funina, but instead planned to take the Great Tree King out for a walk and find something interesting.
There are many shops in Fontaine, and quite a few street vendors as well.
While strolling through the streets with the Great Tree King, Shiraki casually bought a bottle of Fontainebleau specialty called "Fontainebleau" from a roadside stall.
Fanta is very similar to Fanta in Shiraki's previous life; both are a type of sparkling water with a sweet taste.
Bai Mu shook the unopened bottle of Fengda a few times. After the bottle swelled up to a certain extent, he carefully unscrewed the cap.
Shiraki doesn't like drinking sparkling water with too much carbonation, as this allows the gas in the sparkling water to be released to a greater extent.
"Gudu."
Bai Mu took a bite of the Fontainebleau in his hand, then his brows furrowed slightly.
After that, Shiraki took another big gulp.
This time, he didn't swallow the water directly, but instead sipped it carefully in his mouth a few times.
"Try it."
"Is this water spoiled? Why does it taste so strange?"
Upon hearing this, the Great Tree King handed the package she was carrying to Bai Mu, then took Feng Da and took a small sip.
"have to."
"Go back and find Funina."
After just one bite, the Great Tree King discovered the problem.
This isn't Fengda that's broken; it's clearly something else mixed in with Fengda.
As for what was mixed in?
This is Fontainebleau, so it's reasonable to add some original seawater to the drinks, right?
"This is evidence, don't drink it all."
Upon learning that the bottle of Fengda contained the original water of the fetal sea, Bai Mu curiously took a few more sips.
Seeing this, the Great Compassion Tree King quickly reached out to stop it.
......
Mo Bo Palace.
Shiraki found Funina.
But seeing the cream still smeared on Funina's face, Shiraki couldn't help but facepalm.
"Besides Vilette, does anyone else in Fontaineble have the ability to manage things?"
After seeing Funina like this, Shiraki felt that Fontaine's future was bleak.
He didn't plan to talk to Funina about it directly; he'd wait until someone who could actually speak to him arrived.
"Can someone get things done?"
"I, the water god, am in charge."
Upon hearing Shiraki's question, Funina stopped wiping the cream off her cheeks.
She immediately crossed her arms, puffed out her chest, and arrogantly uttered the aforementioned words.
"This involves a grand conspiracy concerning the Primordial Sea of Conception water. This water is already circulating within Fontaine. Are you sure you can control it?"
"Wait a minute, I'll go get someone right away."
As soon as Bai Mu finished speaking, Fu Ningna rushed out in a hurry.
Not long after, she returned to the room with a woman in purple.
"Let me introduce you, Shiraki. This is..."
When the person was brought before Bai Mu, Fu Ning Na was about to introduce him, but she was interrupted halfway through her sentence.
"Ms. Funina, the situation is urgent, let's explain as we walk."
Upon hearing the term "waters of the primordial womb" from Funina, Clarinde immediately realized the gravity of the situation.
As Fontaine's dueling agent and "Frinna's bodyguard," Clarinde is arguably the person Frinna trusts most, besides Navelette.
The moment Funina learned that the Primal Sea of Fetal Water had appeared in Fontaine, she thought of the other party.
And Claude did not disappoint Frynn, fully demonstrating the abilities a parent should have when Naviette was not around.
Remain calm in the face of danger and act decisively.
On the way to the location of the small vendor, Funina introduced the two parties separately.
Only then did Shiraki learn that the woman, whose figure and appearance were extremely similar to Kage's, was named Clarinde.
“I bought this from that vendor’s stall. I was wondering why his Fengda was cheaper than others. Turns out it was diluted with water.”
Shiraki took the bottle of Fontaine, which he had drunk about half of, out of his pocket and handed it to Clarinde beside him.
After observing for a while, Claude confirmed that the primordial waters of the womb were indeed present inside.
Then, she quickened her pace.
At that moment, Clarind wished she could grow a pair of wings and fly directly to the merchant's location.
Every second she delays greatly increases the chance that a commoner from Fontainebleau could be turned into a puddle of seawater.
"We've arrived; the vendor is just ahead."
Shiraki pointed to an inconspicuous little stall on the side of the street and said.
When Clarinde arrived, she brought an enforcement team with her. After receiving instructions from Shiraki, she immediately led the enforcement team to surround the area.
Upon seeing this commotion, the stall owner in the distance instinctively wanted to run away, but as soon as he made a move, the enforcement team immediately sped up.
The stall owner was caught red-handed by the enforcement team as soon as he came out from behind his stall.
Upon seeing Funina and Clorinde behind the enforcement team, the stall owner burst into tears and began to recount his ordeal.
"Lord Water God, I only sold some fake drinks. Is it really necessary to make such a big fuss to arrest me?"
"I have elderly parents and young children to support. Even though I made a mistake, it doesn't warrant the deployment of the law enforcement team, does it?"
"I've been setting up my stall for so long, and I've only sold one bottle of drink!"
Listening to the stall owner's tearful tale, Clarinde immediately frowned.
She had assumed that even if the stall owner wasn't the instigator, he should at least be an accomplice.
But judging from the current situation, the stall owner seems to be unaware of the situation, and he seems to be a "victim" as well?
Then, Clarinde remembered what the stall owner had just said: "Only one bottle was sold in total."
She quickly pressed for an answer:
"You mean, you've only sold one bottle of drink since you started your stall?"
Upon hearing Clarinde's question, the stall owner quickly nodded in agreement.
Furthermore, to enhance the credibility of his statement, he offered a more reasonable explanation:
"Lord Water God, Lord Agent, these drinks of mine are all counterfeit drinks that I bought at low prices, so my selling price is also very cheap."
"And this is Fontaine, where prices are generally high, so there are basically no poor people here. Poor people wouldn't spend money on drinks, would they?"
"Everyone knows that there must be something fishy about my drinks as soon as they see that my drinks are priced low, so no locals buy my drinks."
"Since I started selling drinks, I've only sold one bottle, and that one was bought by a cheapskate from out of town."
Just as the stall owner was rambling on and on, trying to find evidence to support his earlier claims, Shiraki pushed through the crowd and shoved his face right in front of the stall owner.
"I am the 'poor wretch from a foreign land who is greedy for cheap things' that you mentioned."
"To tell you the truth, I'm the one who reported your stall!"
