Chapter 199

The girl with red hair made a sound, a little wordless, but quickly responded, "do you need help?"

Luke looked at the girl with great interest. His mind turned and he nodded a moment later: "in fact, there is still a need."

"What do you need?" Asked the girl.

Luke: I just got here. The hotel I found is a little expensive. So, I'd like to change to a less expensive but convenient place to live. "

The girl's eyes turned: "is the apartment OK?"

Luke was shocked: "I'm just here for a week. Are you talking about a hotel apartment?"

The young girl quickly shook her head: "no, there is an apartment next to me that is just empty. There is no rent for the time being. I'm familiar with the landlord. It's OK to let him rent it to you temporarily for a week. "

Luke began to ponder, not immediately answering.

Looking at his expression, the girl quickly added: "the rent will not be too expensive, and it's in the next 17 districts. The environment is pretty good."

Luke thought about it and said with a smile, "can you take me to have a look?"

The girl was relieved and smiled: "OK, wait for me to clean up."

Luke just watched the girl pack up the easel. When she wanted to carry those things, she took them to her back with a smile and said, "come on, I'm still strong."

The young girl gave a voice, but didn't mean to refuse. She only indicated the direction of departure, and they walked to the East with a little faster pace.

On the way, the two talked. Luke knew the girl's name: Irina Tatu.

She went to a private Academy of fine arts and didn't even remember her name.

However, Elena's English is not bad. In her words, maybe one day she will go to America to teach.

Luke wondered, "you Don't you think Americans lack artistic accomplishment? "

Elena was stunned and cackled: "that's a lot of people's idea, but it's not mine. At least it's easier to make money there than here. Well, if I get my diploma. "

Luke also smiled: "I'm sorry, I don't know anything about art. Well, in America, I'm also one of those uneducated people."

Elena looked at him curiously: "but the feeling you gave me It's unique. I can't describe it, but when we see Venus, we don't think she's not beautiful because she doesn't have a college degree, do we? "

Luke said, "I'm sorry, Venus Like a woman? "

Elena was stunned again and laughed again: "no, no, no, no, I just mean that feeling, a pure beauty."

Luke's face: do I have a day to flirt with my sister? Or a French girl?

Elena is not a big beauty, but she looks good. Her skin is a little white and plump.

Well, maybe sitting and drawing for a long time, not very athletic? Luke's eyes went down to the girl's footwall in front of him and he was so confused.

They left for more than ten minutes and arrived outside a white six story building.

The side of the small building is almost high, but the main body is red, with beautiful and old-fashioned carved window frames and mottled iron fences. Compared with most of the buildings in the United States, it is indeed very artistic.

Elena opens a security door at the bottom of the building, beckons Luke to follow, and quickly closes the door: "well, close the door when you go in and out. Although the security here is OK, you know, the environment in Paris is getting worse and worse. Especially for tourists like you, you must be careful. "

Luke just smiled and nodded, without saying a word.

It's hard to say who is more unlucky when we meet robbers.

All the way up to the top floor, Elena went to the main wooden room which obviously belonged to the illegal building, and opened the door with the key: "look, it's here."

Luke went in and looked and found it was really small.

About 10 square meters, but the sunshine is very good.

Well, the whole house is bathed in the sun. No wonder.

Fortunately, it's January, so it won't be hot.

The things inside are very simple. One bed, one table, two chairs, one wardrobe, and the table also comes with a small cabinet. There is no other.

Luke looked at Elena doubtfully. "Where are the bathrooms and bathrooms?"

Elena didn't come in at the door, just pointed to the side: "here, it's public. That is to say, it is shared with the next room. Well, I live in that one. " She's a little embarrassed to say that.

Luke was stunned, and then he laughed, "is it just you?"

Elena's face was a little hot. "Yes, only me."

Luke looked over and found these two illegal buildings very interesting. The two rooms are separated by a bathroom and a bathroom. Inside the two rooms, there is a small door behind the entrance to the public area.

This It's supposed to be for two same-sex people, right? Or lovers?

Luke was a little surprised, but he didn't move, just nodded, "what about the rent?"Elena was happy: "if you live for a week, 150 euro? No, no, a hundred euros will do. "

Luke: one hundred and fifty euros. Where's the landlord

Elena smiled and held out her hand: "meet me again, I'm the landlord My daughter. So, you can stay first, wait for my father to come back, and then give him the money. "

Luke: " It's a great honor to meet you, the distinguished and beautiful miss Tatu. " He also extended his hand.

After shaking hands again, the two looked at each other and smiled.

Luke said, "if it's OK, I'd like to eat first. Do you need to come together? "

Elena: "ah, I just ate Well, I think I can have another cup of coffee. "

Luke nodded: "in return for helping me find the right place to live, this coffee must be on me."

Elena nodded happily: "then to the corner, the coffee shop has been open for many years."

Luke has no choice.

Less than five minutes later, they sat down in the coffee shop downstairs.

Yes, this small coffee shop is at the corner of the next small building. They go downstairs and sit on the open-air teahouse of this small coffee shop less than 20 meters away.

The open-air teahouse is also very small, just two tables.

Luke didn't understand the menu very well. He just asked Elena to help him order something to eat.

A moment later, a small basket of croissants, a duck breast, a crisp onion soup, a stewed veal in white sauce, is a rich breakfast.

While eating, Luke chatted with Elena.

However, he deliberately leads the topic to some places where it is needed.

For example, where there is chaos, where there are gang members and Albanian gang.

Of course, these questions can't be asked directly, but Luke really relied on his face this time, and also asked quite a lot of news.

Elena has always lived in District 17, and the security here is pretty good.
