American Comics: Something's Wrong with This Superhero World

Chapter 243 Eliminating Differences

"Great! I knew you wouldn't let me down! Hurry up and get me out of here!" Rachel exclaimed happily.

"That's possible, but we need to sign an agreement. You have to promise that after I rescue you, you'll serve me as your master, be mine in life and in death," Xiao Xian said, handing the agreement to Rachel.

"No problem, I'll sign it right away!" Rachel didn't hesitate at all. She took the agreement and pen, signed it without even looking at the contents, since this kind of agreement had no legal effect anyway. Once she got out, she could deal with Xiao Xian, this opportunist, however she wanted.

On the contrary, this unequal treaty could serve as proof that Xiao Xian had coerced him.

"Very good, what about you?" Xiao Xian looked at the other imprisoned girls, and a group of them stepped forward to sign the papers. They were willing to do anything to escape this hell.

"Um... I have a boyfriend. I'm willing to give you money or do chores for you, but could we not... you know?"

After signing, one of the girls looked at Xiao Xian and pleaded humbly, while the other girls looked at her in surprise, afraid that she might upset Xiao Xian.

"You have no choice or room for refusal, but there's one thing you need to understand: not every man is interested in you."

Xiao Xian looked at these people and said, "Indeed, everything has its advantages and disadvantages. Super Charm is troublesome to turn on, but it's also troublesome not to turn it on sometimes."

"Okay~ thank you." The girl blushed with embarrassment and said awkwardly. She was quite pretty and had always been the class beauty during her school years. After graduation, she was never short of suitors, otherwise Bruce would not have taken a liking to her.

Not only her, but all the other girls here, except for Rachel, are quite beautiful. Even though they are locked up here, they are still noticeably beautiful. However, for Xiao Xian, who is used to seeing top-tier beauties, they are not enough.

"But isn't your boyfriend named Joss Ballard?" Xiao Xian looked at the girl and suddenly remembered the information Falcone had given him.

"That's right! You know him? Did he send you to save me?" the girl exclaimed excitedly.

"No, how could that be? Joss Ballard is one of the Penguin's henchmen, specializing in collecting beautiful women for Bruce in bars. How do you think you were drugged and sent to Wayne Manor? Young man, you need to be more careful. You really think you can find true love in the Penguin's bars?"

Xiao Xian shrugged. This guy might look okay, but he's really not very bright.

"No! Impossible! He said he was an entrepreneur, and he was such a gentleman that he was even willing to wait until after marriage to touch me." The girl covered her mouth in disbelief. She really never expected that the good man she thought she had finally found was actually the culprit who sent her here.

"That makes even more sense. How could he dare to touch a woman that Bruce Wayne has his eye on?" Xiao Xian rolled his eyes and said, "Is this guy out of his mind?"

"Never mind that, let's go! It'll be troublesome if Bruce comes back." Rachel glanced at the girl disdainfully and said anxiously, she didn't want to stay here for another second.

"What's the rush? There are so many people here, we have to do it one by one." Xiao Xian waved his hand and pointed to the other girls.

"Look at them, how miserable they are. I can't possibly take all of you out at once; I can only take some, otherwise we'll definitely be discovered."

"Then take me out first!" Rachel immediately stepped forward and took Xiao Xian's arm, rubbing against his arm, but Xiao Xian pulled his hand away.

"Keep your distance, I'm speechless. Stop trying to seduce me with your honey, okay? Please look in the mirror. Using your honey is a skill; it requires real ability. Do you have that?"

Xiao Xian was speechless at Rachel's actions. As the dimensional master of the Color Domain Space, he really couldn't stand such a low-level honey trap.

"You!!! You're so handsome I couldn't resist." Rachel barely managed to suppress the urge to swear. Although she wanted to stab Xiao Xian a thousand times in her heart, she forced a smile on the surface.

"You're in the second batch!" Xiao Xian pointed at Rachel and said, then pointed to a few girls with lighter sins and said, "You're in the first batch. The rest of you will wait for the second batch. I'll come back to save you then."

"Thank you so much!"

The girls who were chosen were overjoyed, especially the one who had just asked if she could not offer herself. She had thought she would definitely be in the second batch, but unexpectedly, Xiao Xian chose her to be in the first batch. For a moment, even the sadness of being betrayed by her boyfriend was lessened.

"What! That's unfair! Why?!" the girl who wasn't called on protested. "Why did they go first?!"

Although Xiao Xian said he would come back to save them, who knows if he was telling the truth? Even if he was, what if Bruce came down before then? Wouldn't they be doomed?

"I can take whoever I want first. If you don't want to leave, you don't have to," Xiao Xian said calmly, looking at the agitated group.

"No way! If Bruce comes back and finds we're missing, I'm dead!" A girl stepped forward and whispered a threat in Xiao Xian's ear, "If you don't take me with you, I'll shout and attract security. Then you won't be able to leave on your own!"

"Are you threatening me?" Xiao Xian looked at the girl with a fierce expression, as if she was about to shout that they would all die together and threaten him, and laughed.

"You can interpret it that way too." The girl stared wide-eyed at Xiao Xian, while the other girls looked at her with strange eyes, wondering if she had some kind of leverage over Xiao Xian.

"Ugh, you idiot~" Xiao Xian nodded, then suddenly pulled out a pistol and shot the wide-eyed girl in the head, then blew away the smoke from the muzzle.

"This house is soundproofed. Even if you shout, no one outside can hear me firing a gun. Did your screams and cries attract anyone when Bruce tortured you?"

The girl's sinful power was no less than that of some gangsters in Gotham. Xiao Xian originally didn't want to do it himself and planned to ask Bruce to send her to a dimensional space, but since this person was in a hurry to die, Xiao Xian didn't mind helping.

Although directly killing someone and taking their soul deducts points from the world's will, ordinary people aren't worth much and the deduction isn't significant. Moreover, it's important to save money and not waste it, so that you can use it when you want to. A pleasant mood and clear mind are also very important.

"Ah!!!" Xiao Xian's sudden action of firing a gun caused several girls to gasp, but they quickly covered their mouths, looking at Xiao Xian and the gun in his hand with fear.

At this moment, they suddenly realized that Xiao Xian, who was able to come to the basement to rescue people right under Bruce Wayne's nose, was definitely not someone they could easily morally blackmail.

"Anyone who has objections to my decision to divide the work into first and second batches can speak up now. I'm very good at resolving differences."

Xiao Xian put away his gun, glanced at the group of women, and asked with a smile. Those who met his gaze lowered their heads, not daring to meet his eyes.
