Central Avenue is located on the central axis of the city of El and from here it is difficult to walk all the way to the southernmost gate of the city, while the northernmost point of the central street is the town square, which is flanked by the town hall and the war college.The whole street is very wide enough to accommodate eight horse-drawn carriages, and the shops on both sides of the central street are lined up, making it the busiest street in the city.Walking side by side in the shade of the incense trees on both sides of the street, Ya focused on looking at the colorful goods in the shop window, her eyes were exceptionally bright, there was always a smile on the corner of her mouth, her hair may have been carefully managed, the usual simple ponytail has turned into a slightly curly golden curly, and there is a silver butterfly tied to the tip of the hair, which is inlaid with a few broken diamonds, very delicate.Jaya was slightly taller than me, wearing a floral shirt with delicate lace embroidered on the placket and neckline, but she was also wearing a short gray dress for the assistant teacher of the college, which looked slender legs.Sophie walked on the other side of Ya, she was wearing a long white dress with floral prints, this skirt was very elegant, and she stepped on a pair of white sheepskin soft shoes.She had a bright smile on her pretty face, she was in the same good mood as the weather today, and her eyes were as clear as the water of the Running Horse River.Wherever she goes, she attracts the attention of passers-by.I really don't know why Mo Xiang, that student of Morath, would let such a beautiful stunner out of his hand and let her live in El City.I knew that Sophie had a crush on the noble magician, but I couldn't figure out why she hadn't stayed.I exhaled secretly, thankfully when I went out this morning, Fanny repeatedly dissuaded me from wearing the gray magic apprentice's robes, and turned out the breeches and white sheep vest that I didn't usually like to wear, otherwise I would be walking with Ya now, and the rustic magic robes were set against their exquisite clothes, and I don't know how ugly it would be.Obviously, Ya is also very happy that I can pay so much attention to this shopping trip.I looked at the exquisite bracelet on the wrist of my left hand, the whole round and simple bracelet made of gold, carved with a shallow row of symbolic lightning symbols, the style is also very exquisite, in addition to the inside of the bracelet also engraved this row of shallow small words: "dedicated to my dearest Ying Li", the final name is only one word "Sha".Ying Li told me that it was also a bracelet given to her by her best friend, and now she has given it to me.I laughed at her and said you traded a gold bracelet for a rotten stone, what a silly girl.She held the black stone tightly in her palm, and said with a coquettish smile: "Don't think about going back!"
”Ya saw me looking at the golden bracelet in a daze, and also looked at it curiously, and then wrinkled her little nose and asked a little suspiciously: "Why haven't I seen you wear a bracelet before, this pattern looks so familiar, why do I feel like I've seen it somewhere?"
”Sophie on the side also stretched her head over, showing a curious look, and looked at the bracelet repeatedly for a long time, before she said a little suspiciously: "I also think I must have seen this somewhere, but it should have been a long time ago" "Ying Li sent me!"
”I didn't hide it, I just raised my hand and generously displayed this gold bracelet."
That's right, it's the little girl who goes to the library with you all day!
She did wear such a bracelet. ”Ya's tone didn't fluctuate at all, and after speaking, she asked curiously: "Jia, do you like that little girl?"
”"It's okay, I feel very relaxed with her!"
I turned my face to the side, and then stole a glance at Ya's expression.Ya didn't feel any displeasure at me, but asked me, "Then you didn't ask her to come to the ball?"
”I looked at her speechlessly, and then said sullenly, "Of course I want to make an appointment, but I haven't had time to say it yet!"
”Hearing me say this, the smile on Ya's face became even more obvious.Sophie listened quietly to the conversation between me and Ya, but she didn't interject.One of the largest clothing stores in the city of El is located at 69 Central Street, the whole brick and stone building is very atmospheric, the clothes rack in the glass window hangs exquisite dresses, this is a store specializing in high-end clothing and all kinds of fine dresses, also sells some robes with magical properties, in short, this is a high-end clothing store.Walking into this clothing store, I found that the maids inside were wearing uniform costumes, and each of them had received professional training, behaved appropriately and smiled, seeing the three of us walking in, a sweet-looking maid hurriedly took the initiative to greet and asked: "Do the three guests have any needs?"
”Ya said directly: "Take me to see the evening dress!"
”I snuck my foot in the purse, and I didn't know if the thirty silver pieces in it were enough, the clothes in this shop were notoriously expensive, Fanny never came here to buy clothes, although the clothes here were very beautifully made, but even Fanny and Lyant, who had a good income, never thought of coming here to buy a gorgeous dress or two.Sophie also seemed to be very curious about this place, and when she saw the number filled in the price label, she quietly stretched out her little tongue and whispered in Ya's ear: "I didn't expect Ya to be a little rich woman!"
”"I'm a wood magician!
I've been in the jungle for most of the year with an adventuring party, and we were lucky enough to have a good harvest for everyone, and by the way, try whatever you like, and I've never given you a gift. ”Morayar stood in the dress area, casually flipping through the various colors of dresses."
You're going to give me such an expensive dress?
What gift will I give back to you, forget it, the dress I customized when I graduated is still very new, and it is enough to attend the prom!
”Sophie hesitated a little and refused, which made me have some good feelings for her, but I didn't expect this beautiful girl to have no vanity at all, and when she entered such a gorgeous store, she was still able to restrain herself and soberly say to her friend: No.Ya didn't care and said, "Hey, Fei'er, are you a magician or not!"
”"I am, I'm a water mage with a formal certificate!"
Sophie is still a little proud of her identity.But then he said weakly: "But I'm just a water magician, I haven't even participated in the field training outside the campus, and I haven't even set foot in other planes!"
”"Do you want to take part in a face-up expedition too?
Maybe during the summer vacation, I can take you to find a reliable adventure group, and the two of us will go together" Morayar was holding a purple dress, and was about to try it out, but the chat with Sophie made her stop, and she stood in front of the row of hangers and introduced some faces to Sophie, and Sophie was also very attentive to listen.Perhaps because of the large number of people invited to the college's evening ball, and the whole clothing store was very crowded, especially in the evening dress section, I saw several familiar faces of the young girls in the college.Such dress stores usually take orders for custom dresses, and only buy these ready-to-wear clothes in a temporary emergency.At this time, a group of women dressed in very luxurious clothes came out of it, they were wearing court-style long dresses, revealing a large patch of white and greasy skin on their chests, each of them seemed to show their full breasts, and there were gorgeous jewelry necklaces hanging under their snow necks, and they kept fanning the small folding fan in their hands as they walked, and looked left and right at the dresses on the hanger.As I stood behind Ya, I heard a lady say with a little dissatisfaction: "What's the matter, today's ball only notified me to accompany him yesterday, but it's too late to customize the dress." ”"Mr.
Hawkins is still teaching at the War College?
Didn't you say that you were already getting old?"
asked another lady.When I heard this, I remembered that there was really a deputy director of the teaching department of the Junior Warrior Academy named Hawkins, and it turned out that this young woman was his wife.But his wife is too young.The young woman casually said, "Two more years!"
I heard that it was the dean of the college who opened his mouth, saying that he still needed him to bring a new director, and after working for so many years, he was a little reluctant!
”"That's a good thing!
It turned out that he was retained by the dean, no wonder he was able to succeed him, but such a large ball, usually not on the side of the eldest lady" Before the other lady could finish speaking, she realized that she had lost her words, and quickly stopped talking.The fan in his other hand lightly rested on his red lips and smiled embarrassedly.The young director's wife stared at her dissatisfiedly, but she couldn't avoid talking about it, so she said in a sharp voice: "She's been in some bad health lately!"
”Another lady saw that the scene was a little cold, and hurriedly asked: "Mrs.
Hawkins, isn't your cupboard already full of gorgeous dresses, why don't you choose one from there at random, see that your figure is not out of shape these days, and you are still so slim!"
”"Those at home are all worn, how can they be worn again!
It seems that in such a hurry, I can only buy ready-to-wear clothes. ”The young Mrs.
Hawkins smiled triumphantly again, her gaze swept over all the hangers, but none of them were to her liking, and when she looked at the blue dress in Morayal's hand, her eyes brightened, and she walked straight over with a bewitching step, squinting at the blue dress.When she looked at Morayar again, she looked very careful and very careful, and when her eyes swept to the college skirt uniform on Morayal's lower body, the corners of her mouth were already slightly curled up, and with that unique arrogance, she stretched out her hand and pointed to the blue dress and said to the maid on the side: "Show me that dress!"
”The maid standing beside her heard Mrs.
Hawkins's words and glanced at Morayar with some embarrassment, apparently the young maid did not know what to do.At this time, the ubiquitous store manager came out from behind, stood beside Ya very politely, and said with a smile: "Hello, miss, take the liberty of asking, are you optimistic about this dress?"
And lo and behold, there are some more elaborate ones for you!
”Ya originally wanted to take it and try it on, but she felt that the waist part of the skirt was a little too thin, and she wanted to ask the tailor in the store to change the waist size, so she said: "This one is very good, but the waist is too thin, please ask the tailor to help me put two sizes, okay?"
”The store manager could only show a smile with a difficult face, and quickly nodded and said, "Willing to serve you, please wait!"
”Although she knew that Mrs.
Hawkins was a regular customer, and her husband was a celebrity with a high status in Eyre, although the director of the Teaching Office of the War College was just a small official with a sesame size, but her social status was indeed not low, because almost all the students who walked out of here held important positions in El City, so even if it was just the little wife of the director of the Education Office, she still did not dare to slack off.It's just that the store also has the rules of the store, and she doesn't favor Mrs.
Hawkins too much, and this young girl who seems to be dressed in ordinary clothes obviously doesn't want to give up this dress, so she glanced at Mrs.
Hawkins with some embarrassment, and the meaning in her eyes is also obvious, as if to say: Look, I persuaded her, but she also likes this dress, and I have no other way!
The lady who had already retreated to the back hurriedly stepped forward at this time, came to Morayal's side, stared at Ya with a noble posture and said, "This young lady, your figure is not suitable for this dress, it just so happens that my friend likes it very much, can you give it to us?"
We might as well make friends, my husband teaches at the War College, and maybe he knows you. ”Ya looked at the lady who rushed up in amazement, and she didn't know what to say for a while, as a magician, did she really need to know those teaching staff who taught at the War College?
The store manager standing on the side immediately understood and said again: "Mrs.
Hawkins is the gold member of our store, and she has the right of first refusal to buy the clothes in the store!"

Let's pick out some of the other dresses!
”The store manager said this, firstly, he wanted to give Ya a hint, that is, the woman standing in front of her was the wife of Hawkins, the director of the teaching office, and he also wanted to give Ya a step, that is, people are member customers, which is the rule of the store.And, most importantly, she wanted to talk to the young director's wife.But Ya didn't give up the blue dress, directly picked up the black tuxedo suit with a blue bow tie on the side, turned around and measured it on me, except for the trouser legs and cuffs were a little longer, it was quite fitting, because although my body looked like a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy, but after all, it didn't grow up, and the height was nearly a head behind a normal adult, and the body was slightly thin, and only this men's dress in the store matched me very well."
I want this!"
Morayar said directly to the store manager, and did not give up the dress in his hand.The noblewoman couldn't help but come closer again, and approached Morayar and whispered, "That lady is the wife of your director of the teaching office, Hawkins, you should give it to her quickly!"
There are so many styles of dresses in the store, why do you have to buy this one!
”At this time, I stepped forward and reached out to take the blue evening dress and said, "Since you like it, then let's buy it first!"
”When Ya saw me say this, she also knew that I didn't want to make a big deal out of it, and I was still talking to her, so she quickly nodded and said, "Okay, then you choose this set, we said that we want to buy a matching set, then buy this one!"
”In fact, Ya has reached out and touched the magician badge in her waist bag, as a magician nobleman, Ya has certain privileges, just like this, even if she is the mayor's wife, but as long as she is not a nobleman, there is no way to argue with a real nobleman, doing so is offending the nobleman, which has violated the laws of the Green Empire.But when I stretched out my hand, the store manager saw the bracelet on my wrist, which was like a basin of cold water poured on my head, and looked at the gold bracelet on my wrist in amazement, his face changed several times, and he cautiously approached me, quickly took the blue dress in my hand, and then hurriedly instructed the maid beside me: "Go and invite the master tailor Amos, there is an evening dress waiting to change the waist size!"
”"But isn't Amos rushing to make the dean's madame's dress tonight?"
The maid reminded in a low voice with a bitter face."
Simply change the size of your waist, it won't take long for the master, you can go and do it according to my wishes!"
The store manager pushed the maid, and the maid turned to leave.Ya and Sophie and I were led directly into the lounge by the store manager.Before leaving, the store manager saw Mrs.
Hawkins' displeasure on her face, and whispered a few words in the young Mrs.
Hawkins' ear, which immediately made Mrs.
Hawkins stunned.The store manager took us to a small room upstairs and said to me, "You are a valued customer of our store, if you come back next time, please show us your bracelet and we will provide you with the best service." ”After saying that, I hurriedly retreated, I looked at the curved ruler and scissors, cloth ruler, charcoal on the table, I knew that this is the tailors specially provided the guests with a room to measure clothes, the room is not too big, but the seat is very comfortable, and there are some delicate pastries on the table, the three of them sit in the comfortable attic room, and soon there are maids to send soft cheese and cold juice, I tasted a piece of cheese, the taste is very good.In a short time, a middle-aged tailor came over, measured the three of us, asked what to change, and left in a hurry, and took the two dresses with him.There were only three of us left in the room, and Sophie even jokingly said to Ya: "Ya, do you think they will take the dress away and not come back?"
”Ya gave her a very angry look, and then said to me, "What's the matter with your bracelet?"
”I was also confused, shook my head blankly, and said to her, "This is what Ying Li gave me in the morning." ”Ya didn't ask any more, just drank the juice silently, and there was not much time, and a maid pushed in the dresses of two hangers from outside, saying that it was for us to choose at will.In the end, under Ya's instigation, Sophie also chose a light yellow dress, but like her floral dress, there was no extra delicate lace and patterns on the whole skirt, it was very plain, but when worn on Sophie's body, it looked like a delicate yellow rose.Originally, these three sets of dresses, which cost at least two gold coins, only charged us 20 silver pounds for the size of the dress, and the store manager personally packed them into a beautiful gift box and delivered them to us.On the way back, we were sitting in the carriage, Ya was still thinking about this, the three of us felt like we were sleepwalking, all this seemed a little unreal, Sophie sat next to Ya, and suddenly said, "I remember, where have I seen this bracelet, this bracelet used to be Sha.
Ellie's, I'm sure I've seen it in her jewelry box, "Is this actually the Ellie family lightning sign?"
I think my mind is a little out of circles, could it be that Ying Li and the little princess of the Ellie family are friends?
The scenery on both sides of the carriage window was running backwards, and we were on our way to the academy, and Ya kept urging the coachman to let the horses run faster, and we didn't want to miss the opening of the show.My mind seemed to be following the carriage, running forward as fast as it went.
