Absolute Zone Zero: I am a Succubus in Six Points Street

Zhe thought so in his heart, and he was still very concerned about this matter. After all, it would be bad if he was caught off guard and hit by a hatchet one day.

Then he continued his date with Keleda. After the two left, the figure in the alley poked his head out again, looking at Zhe's back with a gloomy look.

……

After the date with Keleida, Ambi happened to come to the video store that night, and Zhe took the opportunity to ask her if she had been to Guangying Plaza today.

"No, I stayed at home all day. What's wrong?"

Ambi seemed a little confused, and his eyes changed slightly. Zhe felt something was wrong when he saw this, but he continued to speak.

"Because I saw someone on the street today who looked very similar to Amby, but I must have been mistaken."

"That's it..."

Anbi's tone was a little complicated, and it seemed to contain a lot of things. Zhe wanted to see her inner thoughts, but he couldn't see her true heart.

It seems that Ambi has hidden that experience very deeply. Seeing this, Zhe has no intention of continuing to ask. After all, it makes Ambi sadder than talking about the past experience.

It would be better to change the subject and make her happy.

"Oh, I remember the ingredients in the kitchen seemed to be just right for making hamburgers..."

"Uh! Can I?"

Zhe's method seemed to be very effective, although I don't know if it was because of the temptation of the hamburger, Zhe's company, or both.

Ambi's mood seemed to have recovered.

That night, she snuggled in Zhe's arms as usual, but this time it seemed a little more special. At least Zhe could feel that she was working very hard.

It even made Ling, who was standing by, feel a little puzzled. Her brother clearly didn't go far away this time, so why did he act the same as when he just came back from the outer ring road?

Thinking this in her heart, Ling was indeed keenly aware of something, so she fell asleep quietly beside him.

……

A few days later, the next day after Zhe spent the night at Yuecheng Liu's house, he was about to go home when he suddenly saw a familiar figure on the side of the road.

"Is it my illusion? I always feel like someone is watching here..."

Lucy murmured softly, and Zhe saw her frown and walked forward.

"What a coincidence, Lucy, what happened to you?"

“Who is it—! Um, it’s Zhe, long time no see.

I haven't been to the city for a while, because every time I see you, it feels like... someone is watching me from the dark."

"Oh? An enemy? Or an admirer?"

Zhe considered the possibilities. If it was the former, he could help clean it up. As for the latter, he could clean it up as well.

He thought so in his heart, while Lucy looked disdainful.

"Hmph, I can't possibly look down on a coward who dares not show his face."

As she spoke, Lucy's eyes inevitably fell on Zhe, but then she seemed to have thought of something, and quickly looked away, pretending to be calm before speaking again.

"But it's probably not. I have some guesses about their purpose. Could you please help me verify it?"

"What do you want me to do?"

Zhe certainly couldn't just let this matter go, and after getting the answer, Lucy pursed her lips, seeming to find it difficult to speak.

"Just...scold, scold me."

"?"

"Tsk, I mean, if you want to argue with me... the louder and more intense the better. Just so you know, if it's a quarrel, I won't go easy on you.

If my guess is correct, this will definitely prompt that guy to take action."

Because of Lucy's plan, Zhe had no choice but to accompany her, even though he was very aware of his own quarreling skills.

Then the two of them came to a not very conspicuous place on the side of the road.

"Are you ready, Zhe? Hey, you don't have the confidence to win an argument with me, do you?"

Lucy looked at Zhe who seemed a little unnatural in front of her, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, but who knew that the latter's next words made her feel shy.

"Yeah, after all, it's very difficult to say hurtful words to a girl as cute as Lucy."

"Well, really, you actually said something like that? We're just friends, even if we're close friends, but you should at least be more careful!"

Lucy warned with a slightly red face, and finally gritted her teeth and snorted, no longer dwelling on this topic.

"Okay, I'll start first, ahem! You're a shameless, profit-seeking, exorbitant-charging profiteer! A twisted sister-con! And you have corrupt musical taste!

Do you really like girls that much? You flirt with girls everywhere and tease them endlessly. Do you really think I would like a playboy like you? ! "

Well, even though it was a deliberately acted quarrel, I always felt that Lucy spoke the truth unconsciously, and some of her words happened to be correct.

Zhe thought so in his heart, but he quickly reacted and spoke as well.

"So what if I have bad taste in music? At least it's better than yours, right? Do you think I want to stay with you?

Holding a whip every day, she looks like a sadistic violent woman with strange hobbies. Other girls are not prettier than you, but gentler than you..."

Zhe suddenly stopped talking here, looking at Lucy who lowered her head and suddenly became silent, he couldn't help swallowing.

Did I say too much? I told her it was just a lie beforehand, Lucy wouldn't take it seriously, right? Forget it, at this point, it's better to comfort her.

Zhe was thinking this in his heart and was about to speak, but the silent Lucy in front of him coughed twice, then looked up and looked to the side as if nothing had happened.

"Wow... Zhe, is this the limit of the harsh curse words you've tried so hard to come up with?

Even I know that I have many more weaknesses than this. Do you really think I would care about them... Ugh..."

You clearly acted like you really cared! I'm so sorry, I shouldn't have said that. Please don't cry, okay?

Zhe thought so in his heart, but he certainly couldn't say it, after all, it would only make Lucy more disgusted.

But the result was that before he could say any words of comfort, his vision suddenly went dark and a familiar man in a suit rushed over, waving his arms to separate him and Lucy.

"You bastard! You're just the owner of a small video store on Sixth Street, yet you dare to insult and abuse Miss Lucy!

Are you planning to make an enemy of the Montev family—!"

The man in the suit said this viciously, while Lucy beside him adjusted her hat, as if she had expected it, and then the former looked at her again.

"Miss Lucy, please don't cry. This guy is not worthy of you except for his good looks. You... uh, wait, Miss, you're not crying?

No, why are you glaring at me? Why are you waving your whip? "

Chapter 265 Lucy: Sorry, Caesar...

"I told you before! Don't call me Miss!"

Lucy is still very angry at the moment. Isn't it just bad luck that this man in a suit appears today?

Lucy's forehead veins bulged and she swung the whip in her hand. Zhe subconsciously stopped her, and the man in the suit took the opportunity to slip away.

"Damn it! Zhe, let's chase him! He's right here and he can't get far!"

As Lucy spoke, she quickly chased in the direction the man in the suit fled. Seeing her angry look, Zhe couldn't help but feel sympathy for what the man in the suit would suffer next.

Soon after, the two found the breathless man in a suit in the alley behind the coffee shop.

"S-So tired... Tailing should be easy, but why is running so tiring... Hmm? Wow, we were found so quickly!"

The man in the suit looked at Lucy and Zhe who were catching up with him, and suddenly seemed to think of something and started talking about the past.

Like when Lucy was little, she loved playing hide-and-seek in all sorts of places: in the garden, in the library, in the factory where Mr. Montef had just bought out the factory and fired all the workers...

The first two were relatively normal, but what the hell was that last one? Lucy then unceremoniously stabbed the man in the suit with the handle of her whip.

The latter immediately let out a pitiful whimper, and Lucy spoke very domineeringly at this time.

"Shut up! I'm not going to introduce you to my friends because I'm no longer involved with that family."

"Mr. Montef expected you to say that."

"Huh? Then why did he send you here? To see me wandering the Outer Ring, destitute and regretting leaving home?"

Hearing Lucy's words, the man in the suit was suddenly surprised and spoke subconsciously.

"How do you know?"

"Huh, I just think if I were him, I would definitely want to see this."

Lucy snorted coldly, then shook her wrist and swung the whip. The tip of the whip broke through the air and brushed against the side of the suit man's cheek, causing the latter to tremble.

"I won't go back, you should know that no matter what you do, you can't bring me back.

That house didn’t have what I wanted, so I went out to find what I wanted, it’s that simple.”

Under Lucy's gentle threat, the man in the suit fled in panic, while the former put away the whip as if nothing had happened, then turned to look at Zhe beside him.

“…Ha, I’m sorry to bother you today, Zhe.”

"It's no trouble to help Lucy, and I have a feeling I'll see that person again."

Zhe inexplicably had a premonition, and Lucy was a little unhappy when she heard this.

"At least don't say that now. Want to get something to drink or eat? It's my treat, no matter how expensive it is."

"In that case, I won't be polite. Oh, right, about what happened just now..."

"Huh? What?"

"Actually, I don't dislike Lucy's personality at all. Besides, even though she's sharp-tongued, her actions always show her consideration for her companions. She's really attractive."

Zhe's words were very gentle. At this moment, there were only him and Lucy in the alley, but it was obvious that these words were extremely lethal.

"Ugh...! Why are you saying all this all of a sudden? Seriously... did you think I would take what I said before seriously? Idiot! Idiot!"

Lucy's face was very red, and she bit her lips lightly, looking both angry and shy. Even her fists were clenched tightly. Fortunately, she didn't take out the whip.

But at this time, Zhe had no intention of backing down. Instead, he took a step forward, causing Lucy to subconsciously step back and then lean against the wall.

"Because I felt like Lucy was deliberately distancing herself from me, and I really didn't like that feeling."

Zhe supported himself on the wall with one hand, then lowered his head to look at Lucy in front of him. The latter's gaze was a little evasive, but her tone was still pretending to be calm.

"W-How could that be? It's just your illusion. Wasn't I like this before?"

Lucy tried to get away with it, but it was obvious that Zhe didn't intend to let her go, and he put his other hand on her shoulder.

"Well... okay, okay! I admit that I did have such thoughts...

But that's not alienation, is it? It's just the distance you need to maintain as a normal friend."

Lucy looked up at Zhe as she spoke, but in reality, that was not the case. What really made her make this decision was the scene at the Overlord's banquet before.

At that time, even the dumbest person could sense the meaning behind the look in Caesar's eyes, let alone Lucy.

When she learned about this, besides being shocked, she was also confused...

Struggling with what to do? Continue to develop her relationship with Zhe and make Caesar sad? Obviously, this is not the result Lucy wants to see.

So she thought of quitting so that no one would get hurt, and in fact she did so, although it was ruined by Zhe.

"Is that so? So that's what Lucy thinks?"

"Hmm...yes, what's the matter? Even though you're my friend, it's normal for boys and girls to have a little distance between them, isn't it...?"

Lucy's tone gradually became a little unsteady. She was in the outer ring before, and after Zhe left, she thought deeply about many things alone.

Although she had made up her mind, how could she remain calm after seeing the person she loved again? No matter how mature she was, she was still just a girl.

"Okay, how long are you going to keep this up? What if someone sees you?"

At Lucy's request, Zhe could only take a step back. The girl, who had regained her freedom, still blushed slightly. After pretending to be calm and adjusting her hat, she took the initiative to hold Zhe's hand.

"Hmm? Lucy..."

"W-what's the matter? It's just holding hands, normal between friends, right? Besides, you're a close friend..."

Seeing Lucy in such a state, Zhe didn't say anything more, otherwise the former might withdraw her hand because of losing face.

So in order to avoid this situation, Zhe silently held Lucy's little hand tightly, and then walked into the coffee shop next door.

Inside the store, after the coffee was served, Lucy's mood was relieved and her mentality changed a little because of what she drank.

Caesar certainly hasn't done anything like this with Zhe, right? So, I should be given priority.
