"Oh? Is that so?"
"What else?"
The atmosphere gradually heated up, becoming somewhat warm. (From anger)
...
"Mmm~ I'll just take a sip!"
"Ah—that won't do!"
"It's exploded! Don't inhale!"
...
In a corner unseen by the two, the program frantically issued prompts:
[Shop assistant - Sherry's debt value increased]
[Shop assistant - Sherry's debt value increased]
[Shop assistant - Sherry's debt value increased]
...
One hour of tutoring can increase the debt value more than a million dollars in debt.
...
Debts of gratitude are much harder to repay than debts of money.
Chapter 54 The debts owed must be repaid, and the lost justice must be reclaimed!
After the simulated duel came the written test.
Melonica held the lithography pen, intently looking at the questions on the tablet. She frowned slightly, thinking about how to solve the problems, her eyes revealing a serious and focused light as she completely immersed herself in the sea of questions.
She doesn't ask, and Luo Bai won't offer an answer on his own initiative.
He stared blankly at the parasol she was carrying.
Indoors, she has to hold an umbrella even with the lights on, which looks extremely inconvenient.
"Why did you come to the East?" Luo Bai looked at the umbrella, his expression a mixture of confusion and curiosity.
A girl traveled across half the planet to get here; who knows what she went through.
Melonica paused, her grip on the pen tightened, and a bitter, self-deprecating smile appeared on her face.
"I was kicked out."
At this point, she took a deep breath and exhaled, her lips curving upwards again, forcing out a trace of strength amidst the bitterness.
"My family doesn't want me anymore."
"In the entire West... no one dares to take in the abandoned daughter of the Margulies family."
"Actually, it's nothing." Melonica pursed her lips, her eyes glistening with tears.
"I can earn my own money."
"I'm just worried about my grandmother."
"Many people covet her blood..."
"She's really good to me, but she's old and a bit slow-witted. She keeps calling me 'sister' inappropriately."
Luo Bai listened intently. At their first meeting, he thought she was a rebellious noblewoman who had run away from home, but it turned out she had been kicked out.
That's it, she's broke. She'll have to pay back that million.
"What are your plans?"
"Spend a few years at this college, then get a job, get married, and change your citizenship?"
He was somewhat concerned about her career plans, which could be related to the development of the leek (a metaphor for a potential relationship).
"No!" Melonica's expression changed, a fierce glint flashed in her eyes, her fangs bared, as if she had become a different person.
"You... told me..."
"Debts owed must be repaid!"
"The justice that has been lost must be reclaimed!"
"Margulies, I will definitely go back!"
Luo Bai was a little confused: "Huh? When did I say that to you?"
Melonika remained silent in response to the question, her head bowed, her expression unreadable.
Seeing that she didn't want to talk, he didn't press the matter further. He glanced at the supercomputing ring; it was time to open the shop.
"Alright, if there's nothing else, I'll be going now." Luo Bai stood up, ready to run away.
With a whoosh.
Melonika had her back to him, her face buried in the table, when she suddenly raised her hand and grabbed his shirt.
"Is there anything else?" Luo Bai asked, puzzled.
"It's alright." Melonica released her hand, her voice a little hoarse. "No matter what noise you hear tonight, don't open the door."
hiss...
Luo Bai took a deep breath. The words sounded familiar, but he couldn't quite place them.
"alright."
He gave a perfunctory reply, walked outside the store, and took the card-making materials delivered by the drone.
Then we arrived at the empty restroom.
Summon the wooden door leading to the [Uncharted Territory - Rebirth Shop], push it open with a click, and the sound of water splashing can be heard.
Shortly after Luo Bai left.
Melonica, who was lying face down, slowly raised her head, yawned, and looked sleepy and drowsy.
"Ha—he actually fell asleep."
She looked around blankly, as if searching for something: "Hmm? Where is he?"
"Never mind, haha—I'm so sleepy."
...
Water, night, white moonlight.
[Unlimited Realm-Palace Shop].
Luo Bai slammed open the shop door and excitedly shouted:
"Tony, I'm back!"
Teacher Tony: "Meow!!!"
The meow was a little hoarse, and the cat was baring its teeth and flailing its fur, clearly frightened.
"Hahaha." Luo Bai let out an unkind laugh.
"Come on, try this otherworldly cat food."
As he spoke, he took a small bag of premium cat food from the supercomputing ring and poured it into the cat bowl.
Tony's eyes lit up at just one glance.
With lightning speed, it pounced on the cat bowl.
That dazzling, unstoppable display was just like...
After 800 years, I can eat the food of my hometown again.
"Eat slowly, I won't fight you for it this time." Luo Bai squatted down and silently watched it.
Every time he reached for the cat bowl, Tony would give him a continuous "purring" warning.
"During my absence, has anything happened at the shop?" Luo Bai smiled slightly, stood up, and asked the air.
A moment later, the cold, mechanical voice of the program rang out:
During the closure, neither the living nor the dead are allowed to enter the burial shop.
"Dude, hold on..."
"Boom boom boom!"
Before Luo Bai could finish speaking, a loud knocking sounded on the wooden door outside the shop.
Thousands of miles away, at the Level 4 fortress - [Xumi Garden], Qi Qiankong, a researcher at the [Center], is frantically banging on the toilet door.
"hurry up..."
"Boom boom boom!"
"Hurry, hurry, hurry..."
"If you don't come out now, I'm going to pull your lab report down with me!"
"Boom boom boom!"
Every time Qi Qiankong knocked on the toilet door, the wooden door outside the Wangsheng store would simultaneously make a sound.
"Programmer, may I turn away guests?" Luo Bai asked again, looking up at the sky.
【sure】
"I'm going to focus on making cards tonight, so I'll block it for now."
[Blocking successful]
The wooden door outside the store stopped banging, and only the sound of Tony chewing his cat food filled the air.
"Start card production!"
Let's get it done!
