Peerless Divine Doctor in the City of Flowers
Chapter 397: The Mysterious Master

Chapter 397: Chapter 397: The Mysterious Master

The third floor guest room had a thick carpet lining the hallway.

Lin Fan, holding Annie’s hand, arrived in front of the room number.

The silent Lin Fan was the first to push the door open and enter.

He then went straight to the window and drew the curtains closed.

After all, he knew they were under strict surveillance here.

If Zhao Jiaqi saw him bringing a girl into the room,

Who knows what she would say.

"Master!"

Annie pursed her lips, looking at Lin Fan timidly.

She hadn’t expected to encounter him here.

"Shh!"

Lin Fan turned around and gestured for her to be silent.

He then began to search the room.

Soon, he unearthed several listening devices.

After ripping them out and tossing them into the toilet, Lin Fan returned to the bedroom.

His face dark, he looked at Annie angrily.

"Why are you here? Didn’t I give you money to leave?"

"I am sorry, Master, I was wrong!"

Annie knelt on the ground with a thud.

Serving him had become a habit.

"This is not about right or wrong. Do you even know where you are? You’re not lacking money, so do you need to sell your body? Although the money I gave you wasn’t much, it was enough for you to live a simple life. Is it fun to degrade yourself like this?"

Lin Fan looked at Annie, disappointed.

The girl clearly had no idea what kind of situation she had gotten herself into.

After all, he had already given her a lot of money.

Why wouldn’t she stop?

"Please don’t be angry, Master... I truly didn’t realize things would turn out this way... and... and I never really sold my body... at most, I just sold some smiles. All this time I’ve been here... I’ve never sold myself... If it weren’t for you tonight, I definitely wouldn’t have come in... I swear it!"

Annie knelt on the ground, tears running down her face.

Seeing the genuine emotion in her appearance,

It didn’t seem like she was lying.

"What exactly happened? Tell me everything from the beginning."

Lin Fan sat in the rocking chair, looking at Annie coldly.

Although he felt no affection for her, she was still a compatriot after all.

And considering the previous ambiguous relationship,

He really didn’t want to watch her fall deeper into the abyss.

"It was Ning Bingcai who insisted on bringing me here... and promised a large sum of money... I was greedy for a moment and couldn’t resist the temptation. But I made it clear that I would only act as a dominatrix, and certainly not sell my body... Ning Bingcai agreed readily... For the first few days, I trained him and his perverted friends... But then... Yamamoto Ichiro said I met the criteria for the Holy Maiden selection and suggested I try out... and if I passed, I’d get a million..."

Annie, kneeling on the ground, finally shared her experiences.

"And just like that, I was sweepingly entered into this Holy Maiden selection, then I was asked to keep walking back and forth... until you arrived today, Master... Before that, no one had touched even a finger on me... otherwise, I really would’ve left long ago..."

Annie’s words caused Lin Fan to frown deeply.

The progression of events was bizarre and mysterious.

"Just walking back and forth? That’s it?"

"That’s all... just that my hands ended up with several strange rings... And every day they required me to take a special kind of pill. After taking it, I’d feel drowsy and want to sleep... But I can assure you... nothing happened while I was asleep..."

Annie’s response was beyond Lin Fan’s understanding.

He couldn’t help thinking, these sorcerers and their peculiar habits.

He really couldn’t understand them.

"What smell is that on you?"

Once things quieted down, Lin Fan suddenly smelled a strange scent on her.

It wasn’t exactly pleasant, but not unpleasant either.

It wasn’t the smell of sweat, nor was it perfume.

It just smelled odd to the nose.

"I... I don’t know... Is there a strange smell? There shouldn’t be... We spend most of our time soaking in the hot springs every day; if it weren’t for my good skin, I’d probably be soaked rotten."

Annie sniffed with confusion.

There were no other smells on her body.

"Alright, we’ll talk about this matter later. Just now I heard Hino Hiroshi say that his master personally trained you guys. Who is this master?"

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes.

Hino Hiroshi is now Dragon’s Tooth’s biggest target.

It was only now that he learned there was a master above him.

This made him even more puzzled.

If it really is an old fox, then one must be careful.

"What master? No one has guided us. At most, Yamamoto Ichiro demands punctually every day that we go around the hall, saying it’s to breathe in the scent of love, to increase the chance of getting closer to the Saintess."

Annie’s response made Lin Fan frown once again.

Hino Hiroshi probably wouldn’t lie.

After all, he still didn’t know his real identity.

And as for Annie, she was even less likely to lie.

You could tell from her words and actions.

That she still had a lot of trust in him.

"This is strange!"

After pondering for a while, Lin Fan shook his head.

The sorcerer’s Forbidden Techniques are too many; he also can’t figure out the opponent’s routine.

"But whatever the case, it’s still too dangerous for you to stay here. Listen to me, leave this place immediately, without any hesitation. Money is endless, but first, you need to keep your life to enjoy life. If you lose your life, what do you need money for? These people are extremely dangerous, don’t fall deeper into this."

Looking at the pitiable Annie, Lin Fan sighed helplessly.

He knew that if he forcefully took her away now, it wouldn’t be impossible.

But doing so would expose his identity.

It would be difficult to gather deeper intelligence.

Moreover, if it wasn’t her own choice, even if she were saved.

She would still come back on her own.

"I understand, Master. I promise I will leave here as soon as possible, don’t worry."

Annie wiped her tears and slowly crawled in front of Lin Fan.

Lifting her face stained with tears, she looked up at Lin Fan.

"Then... let me serve you tonight, Master."

"No need, I have other matters to take care of!"

Lin Fan stood up.

Ever since leaving the underground hot spring, the heat within him had already dissipated a lot.

Now, he truly suspected that he was bewitched by that strange smell.

But now he didn’t want her at all.

"Master... don’t worry, I will definitely leave as soon as possible."

Since Lin Fan didn’t accept, Annie couldn’t insist on anything.

Wiping away her tears and standing up, she accompanied Lin Fan as he walked out the door.

"Mr. Lin, aren’t you leaving a bit too quickly?"

Hino Hiroshi, who was embracing a beauty in the living room, looked surprised to see the clear-headed Lin Fan.

He had only been in there for less than half an hour.

How had he finished his business so quickly?

"Looking down on who, it’s just that your standards are not high enough. I really couldn’t swallow it. Call me again when you have better merchandise, but if it’s only of this quality, I just can’t get interested."

Lin Fan said with a twisted mouth.

"As expected of my idol, but don’t worry, give me half a month, and I guarantee that by then, you’ll meet a real woman whom you can’t refuse!"

Excitement shone in Hino Hiroshi’s eyes.

It seemed that he had still underestimated Lin Fan’s endurance.

Since that was the case, he would definitely succeed next time.
