My Beautiful Mafia

Ch.48 Fire Lotus Island [Part 2]

"Why are you so upset, Leo" asked Chici, not understanding Leo's attitude.

Leo, who is usually spoiled when with him, now looks very upset at him.

"(Miss, I've been wondering, why did you give me the name Leo? Is that from Lion?!)" leo asked to express his astonishment, which he had been craving, as well as the curiosity of many people.

"Hahaha you finally asked too. Are you tired of being called like that?." chici laughed.

"(Not bored. I don't want to be called by someone else's name)" Leo.

"Hhahaha I deliberately took the name from the word Lion. Yes it's weird, but I have my own reasons." Chici said lowered her head.

"(Say the reason)" impatiently.

"I gave you the name Leo because I met a guy named Leo. He is strong, brave and wise. No one dared to do anything to him. He's the man who's been instrumental in my life, Leo. He's my second father"

"(Don't you just head a mafia gang?)" guess it.

"Yes.. Uncle Leo, he saved me and sister Farka. Before I met you, I had lived with him until I was appointed his successor.

Until then, my uncle's wife died. He asked me to continue everything. The mafia gang and his company were all handed over to me after his guidance of those few years.

Then after that, I tried to develop a mafia gang and met you on a mission" Chici explained.

"(Oh..Apparently so, yes it's okay then. Then where's Uncle Leo now?")

"He's in the US now. In five months he will come back to see me. Hahhh has not seen him for a long time. How is uncle now. He only told me once, and that was through someone else. It's annoying, but I miss her a lot" Chici laid her body against Leo's back.

"(Five months is not long. You wouldn't have expected that after five months had passed.)"

"You're right." replied Chici weakly.

"(Ehh?? You sleeping?! He's sleeping fast)"

***

Warm mornings begin to greet Chici who fell asleep in front of the former campfire last night

"Miss, miss, get up. It's noon" Zhan woke Chici up.

"Hmm?!" Chici squirming.

"Why are you sleeping outside, miss? You can get sick later" Wixi said worriedly.

"Oh?! I fell asleep while chatting with him last night. All right, let's get ready."

They immediately prepared to begin the search for the lotus flower. Now they are gathering to see the complete map of the island.

"From this map, we're on the southern edge of the island. Unfortunately we can't take shortcuts. We have to turn the road" Chici told him of their position.

"Then where should we go first, Miss?" tanya Zhan represents the others.

"Emmm.. Wests. We have to head west first, then head North 45° and from there we can walk straight east. It's in the east that we'll get the flower." Chici explained.

"All right! Let's start the search" said Fino.

Bukkkkkp..

A punch landed on Fino's head.

"Listen first! Miss must not have finished talking" Zhan snapped.

"Huh.. This search is indeed in accordance with our estimates to get there on time. That's if we don't get a meaningful obstacle.

During our journey, we will face wild animals as well as many poisonous plants. You must hear my orders." Chici explained the situation.

They all understood everything. Now they are walking west.

"Miss! Miss, wait! Miss, wait for us!" some people shouted to stop Chici and the others.

"What's up, sir?" ask Chici astonishment.

"Emm so lady, can we join you? You guys are definitely going to look for fire lotus flowers aren't you? Ka. We will help you" he blushed.

'Cihh he wants to tease the lady? The insolent' of Wixi and Fino.

"CAN'T!" they both snapped together.

The three youths gasped, even Chici and the others were shocked.

"Ehh?! Why are you angry?" asked Zhan suspiciously.

"Ehh?! Emm.anu.no.ituu.only..Emm" they said.

"Hhahaha look at her reddened face" Zhan laughed out loud.

"Damn it!" snapped the two while hitting Zhan on the head.

"Hhihi already you're going to make him faint. Let them come along as long as it is not troublesome. Tell me, what's your name" Chici said.

"Thank you,nona. We will try not to be a burden on this journey. I'm Dian, this is Toni and this is Yodi" said Dian introduced himself and his friends.

"All right let's go. We don't have much time. Don't regret your decision to join me" Chici said coldly at the end of her sentence.

From the map Chici reads, the island of the Fire Lotus is divided into 4 parts, West, South, East, North.

The southern part of the island is further divided into three regions forming a triangle. From where Chici departed, he was at the second point which meant that he had to pass through two regions.

The two regions are the territory that Chici now occupies and the other one in front of it that is within reach of Chici's travel path.

According to rumors, the southern part of the island was the safest part in the entire cursed island. There are only a few types of poison plants, and even that does not endanger lives.

That is why many outsiders choose the main journey from the south first. In addition to using it for a break, they also had to understand the situation first.

Now Chici and the others have the opportunity to shorten the time to reach the destination, but the risk is also not small. Some poisonous plants are not too bothersome to them.

From the information that Leo gave, poisonous plants in the second part of the southern region there are only five (5) types of poisonous plants. Of the five, there are only two that spread poison from the gas.

That means, they are enough not to touch the plants there so one problem can be solved. As for the next problem, they only need to hold their breath when they smell the aroma produced by the plants around them.

That said, many are lulled by the poisonous aroma. The aroma of the poisonous plant will adjust to the thoughts of people around the plant.

If the smell is very fragrant, it means that the person who smells it has a dirty heart. And vice versa, if the person who smells a foul scent then his heart is holy.

On the one hand, the scent was extremely deadly. On the other hand, the scent also showed the identity of each person to the other.

It's not just rumors, it's all been proven to everyone. Rotten-hearted people will smell a very fragrant aroma, but after that they will become very brutal and attack anyone who is near.

That's why Chici let the three men join in. They have their own intentions, until the time they pass through the toxic gas area then everything will explain their intentions and goals approaching Chici.
