I am the devil, I only know how to trade.

If conditions had been negotiated beforehand, Yukino's balance might have shifted; she might have considered things more thoroughly and even started weighing the pros and cons.

After all, her sister could still be acquitted, and if she was careful on the day she picked her up, her sister wouldn't be on the verge of death.

What she had to endure was a period of public criticism.

But once she made her choice, she could only continue down this path, because she had given up on what she had once insisted on.

Once you let go of something, you can easily let go a second and a third time.

Luo Feng planned to go straight to her stomach and ruin her completely.

Her mental fortitude is also far superior to Sora Ginko's; Sora Ginko could break down twice, but she might not.

"I……"

Yukino lowered her head, and no matter what request Luo Feng made, she could only agree.

"it is good……"

Yukino's fingers gripped the ground tightly, tears streaming down her face.

Luo Feng had never done anything to her before, but today was different. She had lost completely and could only lower her head.

"This is not a suitable place."

"what?"

With a wave of his hand, Luo Feng instantly changed their positions.

They were no longer in the same place, but outside a room.

Luo Feng raised her hand and forcefully pulled Yukino up.

“This is…” Yukino stared at the door, then her eyes widened suddenly: “Yui…”

"Hmm, you want to save more than just your sister, right?" Luo Feng said with a half-smile, "If you want to save her, then take back your deal with me."

"What do you mean?" Yukino stared blankly at Luo Feng.

"I've said it before, your pleas won't save them. You're begging me, and I'm just giving you a chance." Luo Feng smiled and said, "If we really want to save them, there will be a price to pay, for everyone."

"The same for everyone? You mean you want me to take back the contract that forbids you from trading with Yui?" Yukino's eyes widened. "You can break a contract like this? She did it all because of you..."

"No, it's because of you. Who told her to be your friend?" Luo Feng spread his hands and said, "Don't worry, I won't ask for too much. I don't want her soul, nor her lifespan, nor her time."

"If you don't take these back, how can I make a deal with her, how can I save her?"

"Even if I were the devil, I would still abide by the basic law."

Yukino had no choice but to agree to Luo Feng's terms of the deal.

Seeing that the contract was loosening, Luo Feng didn't pay much attention.

Or rather, it doesn't matter if he ignores this contract.

Rules are meant to bind ordinary devils, and he is clearly not one of them.

He follows this rule because he likes it, not because he has to.

“Once inside, you can’t say anything. You can’t interfere with what I say or do, otherwise she will pay an even greater price,” Luo Feng said indifferently.

“Okay…” Yukino didn’t dare to think about how Luo Feng would treat Yui.

Anyway, it's better than, better than ruining your life...

…………

Yui Yuigahama lay on the cold bed, staring at the ceiling that was beginning to feel familiar.

When will I finally be able to get out of here...?

Or is it that I'll have to serve decades in prison...?

The thought of spending decades in such a place sent shivers down her spine.

Click.

Just then, the iron gate seemed to open.

Yui Yuigahama wondered, "Is this someone bringing food, or what?"

Soon, her eyes widened.

It's Luo Feng, he's here to pick me up!

"Luo Feng!" She suddenly stood up, looking at Luo Feng with hopeful eyes.

She wasn't surprised at all that he could come and go from places like this.

In her eyes, Luo Feng is omnipotent!

"Yui." Luo Feng smiled at Yui Yuigahama, the tool he used to provoke Yukino.

Yui Yuigahama quickly climbed off the bed and hugged Luo Feng.

pat.

She felt Luo Feng's warm embrace and ignored even Yukino who followed her in.

Yukino opened her mouth listlessly, remembering that she couldn't say anything or interfere.

"You've come to pick me up? Can I go out now?" Yui Yuigahama looked up at Luo Feng, her eyes full of hope.

"Yes, you'll be able to leave soon." Luo Feng said seriously, "I told you, trust me, I will definitely let you leave."

"I never doubted it, sob sob sob..." Yui Yuigahama hugged Luo Feng and cried again.

All the grievances, fears, and pain I've endured these past few days surged into my heart at this moment.

After killing someone, she had nightmares every day. In addition, being in this cold room, where there was no warmth of home, only intensified her fear and suffering.

Moreover, it wasn't just the murder that was troubling her.

She was terrified, terrified that her parents would find out about her.

She was terrified, terrified that the people she knew would look at her like she was a monster.

She was terrified that the world would change after she went out, and she would be unable to keep up with the times.

But those fears are nothing compared to what I'm feeling now...

The more she suffered these past few days, the sweeter today became.

She had never been so happy.

He came to pick me up. If we get out of here, can we get married?

"Pfft... Hahahaha..."

Just then, a low laugh rang in her ears.

Yui Yuigahama initially thought that Luo Feng was happy for her.

But his laughter... was so grating!

At that moment, she suddenly had a bad feeling.

Chapter 264 The Truth

“Interesting, very interesting, but I’m not going to pretend anymore, I’m coming clean.” Luo Feng raised his head: “You can leave, but you’ll have to pay a price.”

"The price?" Yui Yuigahama paused, then asked, "A fine or jail time?"

She still hasn't figured out what Luo Feng meant by "showdown".

Pretending? What does that mean?

"Neither." Luo Feng's smile faded, and amidst Yui Yuigahama's incredulous expression, he shoved her away, saying indifferently, "Sorry, I've always loved Yukino. You... were just a tool."

Yukino gritted her teeth.

A short, sharp pain is worse than a long, drawn-out one. Forget about him, Yui.

"What?" Yui Yuigahama seemed a little confused. "What do you mean?"

"I've been teasing you the whole time," Luo Feng said softly. "I've known Yukino for a long time. I pursued you just to provoke her."

Yui Yuigahama then noticed Yukino.

Is this... has he changed his mind? Because he's been busy with Ah Xue's affairs these past few days, has he fallen for her?

This is not impossible.

She knows herself too well.

Compared to Yukino, she was less knowledgeable, less learned, and had a less privileged family background.

Yukino isn't a typical rich kid; her personality is a bit eccentric, but she's still very charming.

She felt a little short of breath.

Why, why did he become Yukino's?

"I...I understand..." Yui Yuigahama gave a bitter smile, feeling as if all her strength had drained away in that instant: "No need to say anything more, you can go..."

Yukino resisted the urge to comfort her and remained standing there blankly.

Or rather, even if she could speak now, she wouldn't actually want to.

She felt like a soulless shell.

"Don't misunderstand, I like Yukino, but only her soul." Luo Feng stared at Yui Yuigahama: "I haven't changed my mind, I just don't have a heart at all. You should believe Yukino, I really am a devil. I have never liked you, so-called hobbies, so-called common language, they don't exist at all, I lied to you about all of that."

"You're the one lying to me now." Yui Yuigahama took a few steps back. "Is it because you can't get me out that you're using these words to make me give up? You're afraid I'll keep thinking about you and keep hoping, so you're saying this... You like me, right? You just feel sorry for me, you just think this will make me feel better, right?"

Her expression quickly changed again: "Or is it that...you've been implicated because of me? You don't want me to feel guilty? What did they do to you? Are you going to jail too?"

She thought this made a lot of sense and was very logical.

Given how good Luo Feng was to her, he probably put in a lot of effort, but in the end he couldn't beat her, and he really fell for her.

He didn't want to feel guilty; he wanted to hate himself so he wouldn't hate himself and could live a better life.

He has always been such a gentle person.

Yui Yuigahama rushed to Luo Feng again, looking at him with a mixture of hope and worry.
