Chapter 33: Repentance
"That's enough."
Victoria's voice rushed behind Summer Night, not loud, but with a firm enough tone. Shocked by this tone, Grady's almost crazy scolding suddenly stopped.
Summer Night sighed with some regret, she wanted to appreciate it for a while, but now it seems impossible.
She turned and looked at Victoria with Grady.
"I've notified the debt collection agency, and their people will be coming soon." Victoria stepped forward and said, "So you don't have to wait for 50 days to die." ”
"Hmph~" Xia Ye snorted dissatisfiedly, but did not object.
Grady glanced at Victoria, stunned for a few seconds, and suddenly collapsed on her back. She stared blankly at the ceiling, no longer scolding, but no longer pleading, as if she had become a dead person.
During this time, she tried every means to evade or even kill the debt collection team, and even came close to success at one point. But in the end, the notification that a debt collection team is about to kill her becomes her salvation.
It's ironic.
"Huh...... Hehehehe...... Hahahahaha......ha
She burst out laughing, first with a suppressed chuckle, then louder and louder, until at last Grady gave up her scruples and laughed heartily.
Tears slowly rolled down her cheeks amid laughter.
After a long while, she gradually stopped laughing, and said in a calm tone, "This beautiful ...... Miss Monster, the one I talked about earlier...... The story, in fact, has left out a plot, I don't know if you are interested in listening to it again. ”
"Oh? Please speak. "Summer Night Road.
"As for my two companions, at first, they did try to help me evade the debt collection team, but in the process of escaping, the three of us were constantly hunted and killed, and in the most thrilling case, two of my companions almost died...... The people in the debt collection team are really ruthless, even if my two companions are not debtors, they are merciless just because they help me.
After a few times like this, the two men's minds changed...... They quietly contacted the debt collection agency behind my back, hoping to hand me over in exchange for the debt collection agency's exemption. But before they could negotiate, I found out.
"The two of them were trying to find an excuse to cover up the past at first, but I, I pretended to believe them, and when they let their guard down, I made a decisive move. I succeeded, and I badly wounded them and lost the ability to resist, so I took away their magic.
"Before they died, they even confessed to me...... Haha, I killed them, and they even confessed to me, saying that they shouldn't have betrayed me or anything...... But at the time, I only thought they were ridiculous, and I was only thinking about how to use the magic I took from them to buy a few more contracts so that I could ambush the debt collection team. ”
At this point, Grady was silent for a long time before continuing:
"But now, I understand what they're thinking, maybe because I'm dying too...... But I have no one to repent of, so I'll have to tell you, Miss Monster, don't you think my story is funny? Then remember my story, so that my life and that of my companions is at least not meaningless. ”
"I'm sorry, I guessed it a long time ago." Summer Night said after listening.
"What?"
"I guessed it a long time ago...... When you first said that two of your companions offered to give you magic before they died, I had already guessed that you were lying and making things up. Summer Night chuckled.
"......" Grady was speechless.
"I'll admit, though, that your story, both at the beginning and the one you just added, is quite interesting. So, I have decided to forgive you, you don't have to wait 50 days to die, you can die now. ”
“…… Thank you. ”
Just as Grady said these two words, a whistling sound sounded in the distance. Summer Night was familiar with the sound, as she had heard it not long ago when Lillian called the debt collection team.
The sound soon approached, and immediately after, the "click" of the broom folding and retracting sounded, and Summer Night turned back to see a four-man debt collection team walking in from the terrace.
"How are you?"
"How are you?"
Summer Night said the same thing to the leader of the group.
The person who came was Luca, the witch who was tall, beautiful, and beautiful in appearance as a black and straight girl of fifteen or sixteen. Speaking of which, Xiu Ji will be unexpectedly stranded in this world, and it will be thanks to her sword.
And if Xiu Ji hadn't been left behind, the summer night would not have encountered it, that is, there would not be the "head" it is now.
Therefore, if he can have a head, Luca has an indelible credit.
Because of this, Summer Night has a good impression of her.
"This guy said she almost wiped out a debt collection team, could it be your company?" Summer Night was the first to ask.
"yes, that's why I'm here to clean up this mess." Luca replied frankly: "In addition, it is not completely destroyed, at most half of it is destroyed, and the person she killed was later resurrected by the insurance bound to her body." ”
"Oh......"
Summer Night couldn't help but remember that after the three Luca were wiped out by the "Rift" group yesterday, they were also resurrected by insurance, and in the holy light of resurrection, they were disgustingly sandwiched with the insurance company's advertisement - she was speechless for a while.
"You're really hard to die." She sighed from the bottom of her heart.
"Yes." Luca nodded again, as if she would answer solemnly no matter what Summer Night said, "In Debussota, people don't necessarily die if they are killed, they don't have to die without magic." ”
"You are so philosophical and philosophical...... "Xia Ye thought to herself that she had no magic and did not die, and she was indeed the chosen one.
"Usually, that's just the truth." After Luca finished speaking, she asked rhetorically, "What about you, why are you here?" ”
"I was robbed by her."
"Huh?"
Hearing Xia Ye's answer, Luca looked suspicious: "Are you sure she robbed you?" ”
"Hmph...... What do you mean? Xia Ye blinked her eyes aggrievedly: "A beautiful and delicate girl like me is targeted by people with bad intentions, and she has no power to resist, so she can only beg and beg under the rough treatment of the other party - isn't this a normal thing?" ”
"It's not normal at all." Luca said mercilessly, "Except for half a sentence, everything else is a lie." ”
"Oh, what half?"
"In the first half of the sentence of 'a beautiful and delicate girl like me', you are indeed beautiful."
"Uh...... Thank you. ”
Being so bluntly praised by someone like Luca for her appearance, it was a little embarrassing that a summer night was rare.
But then, she remembered a question.
"In my rental agreement with Lillian, you said you had a full-body picture of me, right?" She asked suddenly.
"That's right."
"But in the photo, am I wearing a veil?" Summer Night remembers that Lillian had said so to herself.
"Yes."
"In other words, you've never seen my face, and now I've changed into another set of clothes, plus we don't know each other, so just now, how did you recognize me at a glance?"
Summer Night stared at Luca with some wariness and asked her own questions.
But Luca's answer was completely unexpected.
"From your figure." The other party said naturally.
"Huh?"
"I was born with a talent that anyone can remember at a glance how tall she is and how thin she is, and even the size of every specific part of her body is basically the same."
Luca said truthfully, not noticing Xia Ye's gradually stiffening expression at all: "Even if you change your clothes, it won't affect me at all, this talent is quite useful, when I first entered this industry, I relied on it to find a lot of people who escaped debts...... Uh, why are you glaring at me? ”
Seeing that Luca began to look at her again, Summer Night involuntarily raised her arm to cover her chest, but then, she remembered that there seemed to be nothing to cover above, so she hurriedly lowered her palm and pressed her little skirt.
"You you, you know what? In the place where I used to live, if you say this kind of thing, you will only be regarded as a pervert who is harassed by xing. ”
Xia Ye glared at each other with some annoyance, her face was a little red, she didn't really care so much about others seeing her body, she just didn't like the feeling of being out of her control.
However, Luca couldn't guess her thoughts, and even if she did, she couldn't understand them, so she just asked:
"What does 'xing harassment' mean?"
