Just sitting in the carriage chatting all the way.
Less than a quarter of an hour passed, and the fast-moving carriage finally brought them to their destination.
——This is the riverside area.
The two got off the carriage and walked on the road in the riverside area.
When going to the investigation bureau to register, Ronald and the others actually passed by this place once, where Raphael pointed to the theater building and invited Ronald to watch the performance.
Looking around curiously, Ronald was quite curious about the place where he planned to live.
In the winter, the temperature in Springs is even colder than that in Burrenwich. You can see many people walking out on the streets, most of them wearing very warm and thick clothes.
Just walking on the street like this, Ronald and Raphael chatted about each other, and most of the content was focused on the urban construction and the convenience of the geographical location.
After a short walk by the river.
Under the leadership of this companion, Ronald came to the door of a quiet apartment along the river.
To describe in more detail, the apartments here are not just a few simple buildings, but a continuous row of planned apartments along the street, followed by the Ves River that runs through the entire city of Springs.
Whether it is the geographical location or the surrounding scenery and construction.
The apartments in this row are definitely of a very good level.
So she brought Ronald here, and Raphael pointed to the second apartment building and said:
"Ronald, this is it."
"According to what you just thought, it only takes about five or six minutes to walk from here to the municipal library. And if you want to visit nearby universities, as long as their universities do not have a closed policy, then there is no problem."
At this point, Rapel bumped Ronald's waist with her elbow and said in a teasing tone:
"Let me tell you quietly, there are a lot of cute girls here in the Riverside District, especially there are many children studying art. You can take this opportunity to hook up more."
Ronald immediately rolled his eyes at Raphael.
"Don't talk nonsense, I don't have any weird hobbies!"
"Anyway, the houses here are pretty good, and I remember there are also vacancies for rent."
"If there are no problems, renting an apartment here is definitely a good choice."
Looking at Raphael's strong recommendation.
Ronald shrugged noncommittally, then walked up and knocked on the apartment door.
Bang bang bang——
"Who is it?"
There was a knock on the door, and after a few breaths, a man's voice sounded in the apartment.
Soon, the apartment door opened from the inside.
A middle-aged man about forty years old with some silver strands in his hair came out and looked at Ronald and Raphael standing at the door. He asked in a curious tone:
"You two...who are you looking for?"
Ronald nodded politely, and then asked:
"Sir, I plan to move here soon."
“So let’s ask if there are any apartments nearby for rent?”
Hearing Ronald's answer, the middle-aged man nodded in enlightenment and quickly answered generously:
"If you want to rent an apartment, many of the locations along the river are actually for rent, but the person in charge of each is different."
"If you don't mind, sir, you can come in and sit down first."
"I'm going to call the landlord here."
While speaking, the man turned sideways to allow the two of them to enter the apartment.
Ronald walked into it and nodded towards the other party:
"Excuse me for disturbing you."
After entering the apartment with the welcome of the middle-aged man, Ronald first took a look at the interior decoration of the house.
Unlike Burrenwich, which was built based on gas, except for the street lights on the streets, all the springs are running electric lights, and even ordinary residential buildings already have rudimentary electrical systems.
And judging from the construction inside the house, various good-looking light industrial products can be seen everywhere. From this, we can infer the economic development of this apartment and even the entire Springs.
From the remote village at the beginning of the journey to the large city of Burrenwich.
And now Springs, which has an absolute advantage in economic strength.
All aspects of the development of this era were presented to Ronald in a unique way.
This feeling is really interesting.
Unfortunately, the man who welcomed Ronald and the others into the room introduced himself.
He was actually a university painting teacher named Aito Merk.
He is also a tenant on the second floor of this apartment.
After waiting for a while, Ronald met the owner of this apartment through Aito's introduction.
It is different from the tenant who is a teacher.
The landlord is a young girl named Cynthia, who is also a student at the art academy mentioned by Rapel.
Since I have to go to school, Cynthia is usually not here in the apartment.
Servants are also invited to come regularly to clean the house.
Under such circumstances, Cynthia only provides the most basic rental of the house. Things such as gas bills, water bills, and municipal management fees are shared equally between the tenants and her landlord.
It took about half an hour to have a detailed understanding with Cynthia. Ronald confirmed that the accommodation in the apartment here met his requirements, and then rented a room on the third floor here at a price of 13 Deps per week.
.
Of course, this fee does not include food.
After all, this is a boarding house, not a pension.
If necessary, Ronald can contact a servant to prepare food for him, or he can cook himself.
All rental issues were agreed upon and the rent and deposit were paid.
In this way, Ronald determined his next residence.
Walking into the room with Lapel, the area here is not much different from the previous residence in Burrenwich. The overall construction of the apartment is semi-open, and there is even a small garden in the middle.
As for the guest-only rooms, the basic rooms such as bedrooms and living rooms are quite good.
Definitely a suitable place to stay.
After helping Ronald clean up the house, it was officially afternoon.
Glancing at the direction of the sun outside the window, Raphael immediately stood up:
"Ronald, I came to play with you for a long time today, and it's time for me to go back to work."
"It's time to say goodbye."
Looking at Raphael with a smile on his face.
Ronald thought for a few seconds, and then asked curiously:
"Lapel..."
"Or my friends."
"If possible, could you tell me your name?"
Hearing Ronald's question, Raphael had a very subtle smile on his face.
Walking to Ronald in two steps, he almost said to Ronald in his ear:
"If you ever meet me again with a new identity, I will tell you then."
