Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl romance Capítulo 316

"I'll go with you," Richard unexpectedly offered, despite Pearl's expectations that he would object.

"No!" Pearl immediately shot him down. "You have a cold so you should rest." She was worried about Richard. Someone who was sick shouldn't be running around. What would they do if something happened to him?

However, Richard, understanding her worry, smiled gently and reassured her. "Don't worry, I'm fine."

Pearl couldn't help but worry when she noticed that his face was flushed, and he appeared to have a fever. "But…" She hesitated, clearly anxious about his condition. "You don't look well at all. I think it might be more than just a cold. You seem to have a fever."

Richard, determined to accompany her, reassured her once more, "Don't worry, I'll tell you if I'm not feeling well." He then stepped on the accelerator.

The black market was located in the suburbs and not frequently visited, making it difficult to find. Pearl was well-versed in hacking and had knowledge of various black markets in different cities. Once they arrived, everyone was essentially a stranger, which put her at ease.

Pearl, holding Richard's hand as they walked around, searched for the medication. She eventually stopped in front of an old man. "I'd like to buy this medication from you. Please name your price,"

The old man, dressed in layers of clothing despite the warmth of the black market, didn't respond immediately. Instead, he asked, "What are you treating?"

Pearl didn't see a reason to lie. "A burn."

The man paused and squinted. "This is for treating inflammation. Why would you use it for burns?"

Pearl proudly replied, "My mentor taught me that it's very effective for burns." The old man wouldn't know who her mentor was. It was fine to tell him that.

"You're Simon Freeman's student?"
