Chapter 289: Debt Collection
"Brother, help me up," Tometa's weak voice sounded, and she didn't want to lie on the bed when a guest came. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ ο½ο½ο½ο½
Todali worried, "You're like this..."
"It's okay," Tomita shook her head slowly, "I've been lying in bed, I need to sit up and rest too"
As Tometa's face shook as she spoke, the staggered veins on her face twitched with it, which was terrifying, but the three of them were all mentally good people, and they kept calm and did not show any abnormality.
Perhaps this is one of the reasons why Tometta wants to sit up
Under Todali's careful support, Tomeita slowly got up and leaned on the pillow, when her entire upper body was exposed to the quilt, her shocking thin figure was also revealed, Iyes's body size was already counted as a thin person in normal people, and Tometa's body looked like only one-third of Iyes's body, how amazing!
"Don't move, I'll help you bring the herbs" Todali's tone was very gentle, and his expression was even more gentle, just like what Iyes had seen before.
"Okay," Tometta nodded obediently.
The herbs were in the small bathroom, and when Todaly entered, the three Iyes and Tometa were left in the room
"Does my brother owe you anything?" said Tomita, who was silent for a moment
Iyes raised an eyebrow and asked, "Why do you say that?"
Tomita smiled lightly, her face hideous, and said softly: "Because my brother is the least able to lie, every time he lies, I can see it at a glance"
"And... Although I don't know exactly what he does outside, with his temperament, he must act alone, and it is impossible to find other people to drag him down and get into trouble."
Indeed, for the size of this small city, Todali is at the top of the list, but because of this, Iyes wonders why he has become such a character
"Of course, the main thing is that he never takes anyone home, no matter who it isβ" Tometa said with certainty
What a smart woman, Iyes was silent for a while and said, "It's true that something happened between us and your brother, but it's not a bad thing, please don't worry"
After a while, Iyes added, "At least from now on..."
Hearing this, Tometa thanked him: "Thank you"
Seeing such a wise and gentle woman in such a miserable state now, Iyes felt very uncomfortable in her heart, even Cecilia, who had always been extremely disgusted with Todaly next to her, did not say anything at the moment, and stood silently aside.
It didn't take long for Todali to come out of the small bathroom, and in his hand there was a bowl of medicine, which was brewed after grinding Lanling herbs into powder, and smelling a faint fragrance.
Todali carefully brought the medicine to Tomeita's side, "The medicine is ready, I'll feed you, be careful of scalding"
"Well," Tometta nodded obediently
Toda carefully scooped up the spoon with a soup spoon, and then gently blew the cold before bringing it to Tomeita's mouth, a small bowl of medicine, which took half an hour to drink
Iyes: "What are you going to do next?"
Todali: "Me neither..."
Just then, there was a shout outside
"Todali, it's time, come out quickly, or you'll push your little broken house!"
These words don't sound like a good person, the moment Tometta heard the voice, his hands clenched the quilt, and his face showed a worried look, "Brother..."
Todali raised his hand to stop her from continuing, and said lightly: "I'll go out and take a look, and I'll be back as soon as I get home."
After speaking, he looked at Iyes and said, "Several, I'm sorry, I'll go out for a while, you can do it yourself"
For the three of them, Todali was not worried at all, the sense of danger that came from Cecilia and Sally, if they wanted to, was not at all something he could stop
When Todali left the house, Tomeita worried: "It's the debt collectors again"
Iyes asked, "Collect debts, but with your brother's strength, no one in this small city should dare to do anything to him, right?"
Tometta shook her head slowly, "That's not the case, he's not a contractor of the battle department, not to mention that there are manipulators on those who collect debts, but... The main thing is because I... Once I have a grudge against them, I am the best target, I can't move and need to take medicine every day, my brother needs to protect me all day long, I can't go out to make money to buy medicine, and he doesn't dare to offend those people because of this."
Then she smiled bitterly, "So even those low-level contractors who only have a second or third order dare to step on him."
Looking at her bitter appearance, Iyes sighed in her heart, how ironic it is for a low-level contractor to step on a high-level contractor, even if Todali is just an ordinary non-combat manipulator, but it is not something that a low-level contractor can offend on weekdays.
"Seli, please go out and take a look" Iyes couldn't bear to see if she could help
"Okay," Sellie agreed, turning to open the door and go out.
Outside the house, several low-level contractors with bare arms and the same pattern on their arms were the main ones, and Todali, who was the manipulator, looked humble and submissive at this time, without the slightest consciousness of being a manipulator
The leader was a third-order manipulator, with a pockmarked face, a tall body, and bulging muscles, "Todali, you owe us money for three months!
"Besides, what about the ore that was originally used as interest and supplied every day!
His tone was rough and arrogant, and he didn't take Todali as a manipulator seriously
Todali didn't show any anger at all, continued to maintain a submissive appearance, and said with a bitter face: "Can you give grace for a while, I really don't have much money, as for the ore, I will definitely make up for it tomorrow, something happened yesterday, and I couldn't get it"
"No!" the little leader raised his voice and kicked Todali directly, "How long have I heard this?
Seeing Todali flying out a few meters away under his masterpiece, a smug look flashed in the little leader's eyes, and it was really refreshing to be able to scold and kick a manipulator at will as a third-order identity.
The reason why Todali was kicked out was naturally because he didn't use divine power to block it, he already knew the psychology of these people, but if he could get a little respite by satisfying their vanity, it would be a very cost-effective deal for him now, as for a little face, what was it? He had abandoned it many years ago.
