Only the last arc of pale red fiery clouds remained in the sky, and a few bright stars could already be seen faintly above the clear sky.

In the air that had been scorched by the sun all day, there was still a trace of heat that had not faded.

The three girls lay on the floor of the small room that had previously belonged to Lumière, without any image - the only bed had been cut into several pieces by a suspected greatsword weapon, and after a slight attempt to repair it, the three of them unanimously decided to simply throw it in the rubble of the hall outside.

Although the three of them were full of confidence before starting the cleaning, they were all shouting with confidence that they would clean up all the houses in one go.

But the amount of work required to clean up a clean room from the ruins was obviously far beyond what the girls imagined to be tidying up and dusting.

After working for almost two hours, barely tidying up the first room, Otilia with a gray expression with a loveless face fell to the ground first, as if Domino, Yumeng and Andoneva also lay on the ground in turn, exuding a decadent fatigue that did not want to move.

"I'm so tired. So, why do we choose the most destructive house to clean? Can't you go to the better playroom in the basement? ”

Yumeng, who was lying on the ground in a big word, turned his head and looked at Otilia next to him, who fell to the ground first, and asked.

“……”

The eyes of the blonde Xiaoice woman who was slumped on the ground with her eyes blankly turned, the corners of her mouth moved slightly, and she made a sound almost like a mosquito, and Youmeng seemed to see a transparent soul turn into green smoke floating out of the mouth of the most sturdy of the trio.

"Of course, it's because there's hot water and toilets...... Little salted fish, you are tired and confused, otherwise you plan to wear slimy clothes to water and fertilize the lawn outside? What's more, I'm the most tired. ”

Antoneva rolled her eyes, glanced at Youmeng and said, after getting acquainted with it, she spoke a lot more casually and naturally.

As the only beginner spirit among the three, she undertook most of the work that required the use of spiritual power, and in the face of such work that required delicate control of spiritual power, the fragment of the Philosopher's Stone was just an ornament.

"yes, you can take a hot shower later. Then as a landlord and the hardest worker, Neva you are the first to wash. ”

Yumeng happily squinted her eyes and lay on the floor in reverie, after sweating in the summer, if you can take a hot bath beautifully, it will be too happy.

Mutter~

Cuckoo~

A few strange voices that weren't too big suddenly appeared in the quiet room.

Otilia's empty eyes regained some light, and her pretty blue eyes blinked in confusion.

After a long pause, it wasn't until the second "goo" that Ottilia realized that the source of the sound was her protesting stomach.

Otilia blushed embarrassedly, like a small animal waiting to be fed, turned her head to look at Antoneva, and said with a pitiful little face, "Neva, hungry......"

Yes, although the problem of accommodation has been solved for the time being, there is still a big problem that has not been solved. And......

- Antoneva suddenly remembered -

After all the work, she and Otilia hadn't had a decent meal except for breakfast.

"That's right, Ollie. You can transfer the remaining points from the soy milk to me. Just bear with me for a little longer, and I'll go buy some takeaway for everyone to pack and bring back. ”

Glancing at the two incapacitated girls, Antonière shook her head helplessly, stood up and patted her skirt, walked to the door of the room and leaned down to change her shoes.

"Okay, I think there's more than a thousand, well, I want to eat meat......" Otilia said as she lay on the ground and opened her personal terminal with one hand to transfer money.

"Hey, hey, hey?! Not...... Without! ”

Otilia, who was lying lazily on the ground, sat up with a 'bang' like a spring, and looked at the personal terminal in front of her in disbelief, her eyes instantly rounded.

"What's gone...... Ollie, this joke isn't funny. Everyone's still hungry. ”

Antoneva, who was standing at the door, paused, frowned slightly, and turned his head a little dissatisfied.

"No...... No. How can this be, they ......" Otilia nodded at the personal terminal in front of her in a panic, raised her head helplessly, her eyes slowly turned red, and there was a hint of crying in her voice, "Neva...... They forcibly deducted all the points in my account. ”

Before Antoneva could say anything, large tears poured down from her blue eyes like pearls with broken threads, and Otilia, who had grown up in a privileged environment, had never imagined that she would one day be so embarrassed that she could not even afford to eat.

"That's right......" Antoneva's hand on the porch tightened, and he quickly opened his personal account and looked at it.

[The account has been frozen]

Sure enough, there was not even a fraction left, and it was equally empty.

They all seem to be ready, and even if Ollie doesn't bet, there may be other plans waiting for them.

In order to be able to push them into a desperate situation, they are really linked one by one, and all kinds of means have been exhausted.

Looking at the flickering lights in the sky over the bustling area of the academy city in the distance, and touching his lower abdomen, which was also deflated, Antoneva sighed lightly, it seems that he has to get through today.

Kicking her shoes off, Antoneva returned to the room, leaned down and hugged the blonde Xiaoice girl hard, patted her back, and said in a relaxed tone, "Oh, that's not good." Looks like Ollie, you can't eat meat tonight, bear with me a little more, tomorrow I'll take on a few more tasks that can be delivered in kind. ”

"Woo, I also went to the Discipline Inspection Commission to apply for a few more inspections...... I'm sorry, wow......" Otilia sniffled, whimpered and nodded, biting her lower lip and finally not holding back the grievance, she still lay on Antoneva's shoulder and cried loudly.

Youmeng silently looked at the little Xiaoice girl who was crying on Antonieva's shoulder, and her heart was also very uncomfortable.

So much has happened since this day, and it's only been a day yet, but it seems like almost two months have passed.

Hunger, exhaustion, eviction, displacement, debt, masterminds, etc., so many factors are intertwined, and the point to zero is just the straw that detonates the emotions in the end.

Wait, Youmeng suddenly opened her personal panel and pushed Antoneva with a look of surprise.

"Neva, Ollie, you see, I still have nine points here. I should at least be able to buy bread and come back for tonight. ”

"Huh? Are you sure? The teary-eyed Otilia stopped crying, raised her head, and looked at Yumeng with a hint of hope in her eyes.

Antoneva took a closer look at the personal panel displayed by Youmeng, her eyes lit up suddenly, a layer of joy flashed on her face, and the melancholy that lingered on her brow dissipated a lot.

- Yes, because it's not tied to their debts, so even though they live together, it means that Yumeng's account can still be used normally.

Standing up, Antoneva stretched out his hand and pulled Otilia up as well, "The path of the convenience store Noah will be synchronized with you, during the time you are away, Ollie and I will go to the kitchen to look for it first, in case we can find something?" ”

Although I don't know who is behind the scenes, it is obvious that the appearance of Youmeng has become a crucial variable that they can break the game.

Antoneva glanced at Youmeng happily, pulled her hands together in her palms, and said solemnly.

"My and Ollie's accounts are temporarily unusable, so I guess I'll have to ask Youmeng to work hard for things like daily purchases recently. Go and come back quickly, don't talk to strangers, and contact me as soon as you have any questions. ”
