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

"He forgave you, but did he lose anything in this?" Rio Miyaichi laughed out loud: "As expected, bad people come in all sizes. Fortunately, I'm not a good person myself."

She put her hands in her pockets: "As for compensation, it can't be less than a penny. Here's a suggestion: since you think she instructed you to do it, you can tell your parents that five million is not a small amount."

She didn't really want to kill anyone at this time.

That's so interesting, so incredibly interesting!

Since you've made things difficult for me, I'll make things difficult for you too.

Friendship is a very fragile thing!

Sayaka realized, "That's right, it was Jasmine who instructed me, not something I did on my own."

"Instructions?" Jasmine was stunned.

Telling others to do good deeds and be kind people is considered inciting crime? Jasmine didn't quite understand this logic.

Her original world was much more peaceful than this one; the only bad things were the monsters she needed to defeat.

It's fair to say that none of the humans in her world are bad, since it's not written by Gen Urobuchi, but rather a normal magical girl anime.

Even in this world, the teachers still taught them to be kind people, so how did it suddenly become my instigation?

"People without brains shouldn't even think about doing good deeds." Miyaichi Rio stopped and turned back coldly. "Besides, is your starting point really to do good deeds? I don't believe you have no ulterior motives, judging from the title of your video and the things you said in it."

"You just didn't expect the consequences to be so severe, that's all."

…………

"Do you think Sayaka is a bad person or not?" Luo Feng asked Shionji Yuko while playing with her hair.

“I don’t know.” Shionji Yuko shook her head: “Judging from her experience, I think she didn’t mean it, but young people these days generally have problematic values.”

"There are more people who want to be idols than scientists, and more people who want to be news anchors than civil servants."

"They all want to be the center of attention, they all want to make quick money, and they all want to become famous all over the country without any effort, just by singing and dancing."

"And doing this will definitely make her famous."

“In that case, I’ll give it a try myself.” Luo Feng stood up. “This person is also worth the deal.”

"Worth trading? She's not desperate, is she?" Yuko Shionji paused for a moment, then instantly became wary, hugging her flat chest and retreating to a corner: "She's just a middle school student!"

"What are you thinking about all day? Do you think I'm the kind of person whose mind is always full of nonsense?"

“Ask Sayuri and her daughter, the Yukinoshita family, Sora Ginko, Yui Yuigahama, Iroha Isshiki, Utaha Kasumigaoka, Selesia, Alice…”

"Tsk, my goal is to destroy the mind, this is just a side effect."

Chapter 517 Plastic Sisters

Jasmine sat quietly facing Sayaka and her father.

This is a coffee shop, a public place. Jasmine is sitting alone on one side, Sayaka is looking down, and her father is sitting next to her.

The group was sitting in a corner, and a security camera protecting the store was located not far behind them.

“This is not something you can handle. You instigated my daughter to do this kind of thing. Whatever your purpose is, bring your parents here.” Sayaka’s father was a middle-aged man who looked very serious. “Don’t think that my Sayaka is easy to bully.”

"Uncle, I really didn't instigate her. I just told her that doing more good deeds would make the world a better place." Jasmine was a woman who had seen a lot and was not intimidated by the other party's adult authority.

"Hmph, that's not up to you."

"It's not up to Sayaka to decide."

"Jasmine, how could you say that? You're the one who taught me!" Sayaka covered her mouth.

When you tell a lie too often, you start to believe it yourself. When someone accepts something as true, even if it doesn't match reality, they will instinctively grasp at that straw.

Now, because of her father's scolding yesterday and the pressure from Rio Miyaichi, Sayaka is pinning all her hopes on the fact that 'Marika made her do this'.

Jasmine's gaze was somewhat complicated: "You know better than anyone whether I asked you to do this or not. We are good friends and should help each other, not shift the blame to me at this time."

If she doesn't have money and asks to borrow from me, Jasmine might do odd jobs to see if she can help in any way.

But now... she didn't know how to put it.

"Shifting blame?" Sayaka shrieked, "What do you mean by shifting blame? If it weren't for you, why would I have bothered with your business!"

“That’s right, my Sayaka is the best girl, she would never do such a thing.” Sayaka’s father sneered, “If you didn’t instigate her, why are you so eager to help her now? Your school is in Tokyo, it must have been a long way to come here, right? You’re just doing this because you feel guilty!”

Jasmine was stunned by this absurd logic. I helped her because I felt guilty? Couldn't it be because she's my friend and I wanted to help her?

“I said doing more good deeds might make you more popular, and that’s true.” Jasmine stared intently at Sayaka. “I’ll repeat myself, this isn’t an excuse for you to blame me for your mistakes! Why don’t you mention the news, the teachers’ education, the school’s guidance, all that propaganda?”

“I will do good deeds, but I never force you to do them. I just tell you that it will make the world a better place.”

"It was you who let it happen!" Sayaka pointed at Jasmine and said fiercely.

"You're not going to talk, are you? If you're not going to talk, I'll go directly to the teacher and ask for your parents' contact information."

"Phew, I have nothing more to say. Do whatever you want." Jasmine looked disappointed, then got up and left.

Sayaka's father didn't make things too difficult for the child. What he wanted wasn't an apology, but for someone else to bear the huge compensation for him, even if it was only half.

He contacted the homeroom teacher and found the phone number of Jasmine's "parents".

He quickly dialed the number.

"Hey, I'm not swimming, not working out, not signing up for a membership, I'm drawing a manuscript."

One sentence left Sayaka's father speechless.

"Hello, I am Sayaka Maizono's father. Do you know what your daughter did to my daughter?"

"Daughter? You mean Jasmine?" A somewhat impatient voice came from the other end: "If she hit your daughter, it means your daughter provoked her first; if she offended your daughter elsewhere, I'm not interested in knowing, she's right; if she hurt your daughter, we'll talk about compensation in a few days, but I need a medical examination, she knows her limits; I'm rushing to finish my manuscript right now, I'm very busy!"

Alice trusts Jasmine even more than herself; Jasmine is her only support in this world.

Jasmine always does good deeds and never does bad deeds; she knows this very well.

Now she's frantically working on her manuscript every day. She doesn't know why, even though she's the most diligent comic book author in terms of updates, her readers still urge her to update more and accuse her of slacking off.

No matter how fast I draw, the weekly magazine can't finish it all at once!

"What kind of attitude is this! Because of your daughter's instigation, my daughter made a mistake, and now they want five million..."

"Do you have evidence that Jasmine instigated it? Recordings, surveillance footage, anything will do."

"Kids don't have all that cunning..."

beep...

"Damn it!" Sayaka's father exclaimed indignantly, "I'm going to find the reporters, I'm going to expose them!"

…………

What happened next can be described as a dramatic turn of events.

When Sayaka's father contacted some independent media outlets and exposed Sayaka's testimony, the online sentiment shifted.

'So you were instigated?'

'A plot twist! A plot twist has occurred!'

'I knew it! She seemed like a very polite young girl in the video, how could she do this?'

'The woman who instigated her is so slutty; she's obviously not a good person, definitely the shady kind.'

'Exactly, someone who looks like that probably hangs out with delinquents all the time.'

'Isn't this just one side of the story?'

How could a middle school student possibly lie?

The internet is inherently a chaotic place, and Jasmine's photos were directly uploaded online. Because she was cute, many people were jealous of her.

I don't know when this phenomenon started, but it seems that anyone who is good-looking is considered frivolous, and anyone who succeeds is not considered to have achieved success through legitimate means.

Of course, we can only blame some people who lack self-respect for setting such a trend, but it is undeniable that there are still some positive figures.

Setsuna Shimazaki was cyberbullied because of his excellence.

'Who is her mother? Is that the right attitude to discuss this issue?'

"That's right, like mother, like daughter."

'This girl is so young and already knows how to teach people to do bad things; what will she be like when she grows up?'

"Pfft... Poor little magic!" Tsukijouin Makan pointed at the screen and burst into laughter, clutching his stomach, in the author's temporary residence.

She has already disposed of the body and occupied the residence.

Even without her powers, she's still a top-tier criminal, the kind of criminal the protagonist basically can't win without cheating. Making it too easy for the Japanese police to find her is far too simple.

"Hmm, how can we help her?" Chikujoin Makan tapped his fingers on the table.

She didn't consider Jasmine one of her own; she just wanted to have some fun. She found these keyboard warriors amusing.

"Hmm... I'll try contacting Luo Feng. I need internet access!"

…………

Winter break in Japan is relatively short; it often ends before school starts again.

Jasmine went to school as usual, only to find that her classmates were avoiding her.

Somewhat puzzled, she walked over to someone she usually got along well with and asked, "Xia, why are you avoiding me?"

"Don't come any closer!" The girl named Xia quickly dodged away: "Are you trying to incite me to commit a crime too?"

“Criminal…” Jasmine quickly realized what was going on, and said with a wry smile, “Do you think I’m that kind of person?”

"Huh? But it's all over the internet."

"Do you have any evidence?" Jasmine asked, shrugging.

"It's precisely because there's no evidence that you seem so clever!"

Just then, Sayaka's icy voice rang out behind her: "If I had evidence, you would be in jail by now! From now on, I'll record every word I say to you!"

Jasmine turned to look at Sayaka and found herself feeling strangely unfamiliar with her.

Classmates who used to be very close to me are now like enemies.

Jasmine couldn't be bothered with Sayaka anymore; she was completely pathological.
