Chapter 1, The Master Who Ran Away in Debt
In the gloomy warehouse, with only a small window allowing sunlight to pass through, a cleared space was cleared from the cluttered floor, and a blanket was spread out, and a dark-haired girl was sleeping soundly. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
There was also a rabbit nestled in the girl's arms.
The sunlight slowly moved through the window to the girl's body, and the rabbit in her arms opened its eyes, broke free of the girl's arms and stood up.
It is said to be a rabbit, but it is wearing a serious suit, with a scarf sewn on its chest, a top hat between its ears, a black suit jacket and a large trench coat, and a pocket watch in the pocket of the trench coat, the rabbit holds a small street lamp in one hand, and takes out the pocket watch in the pocket with the other hand.
opened, the red pupils glanced at the time, quickly closed the pocket watch, grabbed the brass gear and wrench not far away, and jingled it, but the girl just frowned, turned around and continued to sleep.
I don't know if it's an illusion, the rabbit's red pupils became even colder, and then it waved the street lamp and smashed the street lamp on the girl's head without mercy.
"It hurts!"
With a wail, the girl sat up as well.
"A little more grace, Labon, let me sleep a little longer." The girl grabbed the rabbit in a daze and pressed the switch behind it.
The red in the rabbit's eyes dimmed.
The rest of the room was left with the girl's subtle snort.
Ten minutes later, the girl bounced off the ground again with a tiger leap and shouted someone's name.
"Master Tia!"
After looking back and forth, the girl covered her forehead, and her eyes under the excessively long forehead hair were already dead.
"Have you already run away...... The girl murmured.
"Really, I've had enough!!"
The sorrow of a certain girl startled the birds perched on the warehouse tray.
Lu Chen, no, it's Lilixia now.
For some reason, I crossed over, and I became a girl.
Of course, this may be a bit of a remnant, the little brother who has been with him for seventeen years is gone, although he has been using him to release water is very sorry for him, but it can't be taken back like this.
However, this may not be the most painful thing in Lilixia's experience.
When I was reborn into this world, I thought it was some time in the Western Middle Ages, because Lilisia was left in front of a Catholic church and raised by nuns and priests, and the priests and nuns of the church were kind enough to adopt abandoned babies and orphans in the slums.
However, the church began to lose its ability to support the orphans, and then it had to give those children to those who were willing to adopt them.
Of course, it still depends on fate, the lucky child was taken away and had a new home, so Lilixia belonged to the lucky one, she was taken away by Tila.
Although black hair seems to be rare here, whoever calls Lilixia has a good-looking face and will not be disliked, so where to mix it depends on the appearance.
After three years with Tira, he came to live in the city for another three years.
Tila is a mechanic, and of course, Lilixia has been exposed to the world's most cutting-edge technology, steam technology.
The tech tree in this world seems to be crooked, but that doesn't stop Lilixia from wanting to build a Gundam.
Then Lilixia learns mechanics from Tia, and it is not possible to let ordinary girls deal with machinery, because they are afraid that the lube will stain their skirts.
By the way, that rabbit alarm clock was Tia's thirteenth birthday present to Lilixia.
But Lilixia is different, and Tia is different, as a mechanic, she is an alcoholic, smoking, gambling, and all kinds of vices.
The machinery store with little income was about to collapse, and those precious materials were taken away, and then the money was used for gambling, buying tobacco and alcohol, and just last night, I lost a mess in the casino.
Even the small treasury that Lilixia had hidden was taken to pay off her debts.
Then Tia absconded and knocked her apprentice unconscious! Threatening her that no matter how she repays her debts, she is not allowed to sell the store.
Although Lilixia knew that her master had a very bad personality, she didn't expect to be so undisciplined!
The helpless Lilixia also took over the mess.
Now, Lilixia is about to close the machinery shop, and if it does, it really can't be imagined.
The rabbit alarm clock was turned on again, and Lilixia put it in the pocket outside her overalls, and Lilixia walked outside.
Passing through the studio, I found a note left on the table.
I took a piece of paper and tore it off and wrote it.
The content is: If the debtor wants to smash the store, go to the principal of Virginia Middle School, Warren.
Smash the store? What else can be smashed in this store? Lilyxia sneered.
Looking at the worthless brass gears scattered all over the studio, the bearings of the mythril, and the corundum cores were all sold, and as a mechanical store, there was no rare metal inventory left, and there was no money to buy them at all.
"It's time to go to City Hall." Lilixia changed into her overalls and prepared to go outside.
Although Lilixia is now a girl in the flowering season, she still thinks that work clothes are more comfortable than those skirts, as a man at heart.
"Bang bang bang!"
Before the door could be opened, there was a knock on the door.
"Closed today." Lilitha shouted.
"I'm the president of the liquor store! I'm here with someone from the town hall! Open the door! A rough roar came from outside the door.
What's the situation, don't you usually call your younger brother to collect debts? Why did you call the head of the liquor store this time? And the people from the city hall also came, which also made Lilixia have to make a less trip.
Although she had a lot of questions, Lilixia opened the door.
Outside the door was the harsh sun, I don't know when it was almost summer, usually the sky was still only bright at this time, and it was no wonder that Lilixia would oversleep.
What the? You say the sun will oversleep when it's so big? Lilisha said it was too hot and didn't want to work, so she asked me to sleep a little longer.
It seems that Lilixia has wasted a lot of time, and it is the grease of Gary, the president of the liquor store, that sparkles in the sun.
"Why don't you invite us in?" Gary shook the fat off his body, and Lilixia wondered if the sun was a little stronger, would he turn into beef on the iron plate?
"Well, please come in."
Lilixia watched as the fat man struggled through the door, followed by a tall, lanky man in a formal suit, presumably from the town hall.
"Well, it's just in time, I'm going to file for bankruptcy ......."
Before Lilixia could finish speaking, the head of the liquor store interjected rudely.
"Just in time, huh, Miss Tia Jerome?" Gary snorted coldly, and the fat on his face trembled.
"Master's words, I already ran away last night...... Lilixia watched as Gary sat unceremoniously on the only couch in the room, groaning unbearably from the couch.
Lilixia said that she had become numb, and that over the course of a few weeks, debt collectors had come here to drink tea more than Lilixia had eaten, and now she had no money to buy tea to entertain guests.
And when Lilixia said this, the smug expression on Gary's face could not be concealed, and the man from the town hall pressed his forehead in embarrassment.
