Si Wang burst out laughing. Sure enough, the girls from Abydos are cuter. He also gave the girl a thumbs up to express his gratitude. "Oh, sorry, I accidentally talked so much to you." After chatting for a long time, Ajitani Hifumi suddenly came to her senses and realized that now was not the right time or place for her to preach. She pulled her skirt a little embarrassedly and said, "I hope I didn't waste your time..." "It's okay~" After confirming that Si Wang would not continue to do anything fancy, Xiao Niaoyou Xingye returned to her lazy look. She waved her hand indifferently, "We are here to look for something just like you, but we don't have any information yet, and we are just running around like a headless fly~" "Yeah." Sand Wolf Baizi nodded, "Because I heard that the discontinued item can be bought here." "I see, so we all came here to find something!" Ajitani Hifumi couldn't help but feel happy. It sounded just like the protagonists in a fairy tale who got together by chance. "Then let's..." "Hey! You guys over there, how long are you going to stand there blocking the way?" Wearing masks and armbands, the security guards belonging to this black market walked over. "It looks like I've never seen them before." The security guard dressed as a gangster looked Si Wang and his group up and down. Finally, her eyes fell on the timid Ajitani Hifumi. Her expression and tone were very unhappy. "Especially you, with the way you are dressed, are you the daughter of some school?"
"..." The smile on Ajitani Hifumi's face froze, and she instantly thought of those unbearable memories from a few hours ago. The reactions of Sand Wolf Baizi and Kuromi Serika were even more straightforward. They simply pulled the bolts of their guns and stared fiercely at the group of bad guys who were deliberately looking for trouble. "Steaming film? Don't you want to hold on?" The leading guard snorted coldly. She raised her hand, and more bad guys who looked more like gangsters than guards rushed over from nearby and surrounded Si Wang and others. "This is indeed our friend from Holy Trinity." Si Wang held down the shoulder of the Sand Wolf Baizi who was trying to take the initiative. "If you have any questions, you might as well contact our Big Sister Lanwu to find out." "Are you members of the Steel Helmet Regiment?" The guard's eyes revealed a strong suspicion, especially when he looked at Si Wang's head, the suspicion was even more obvious, "Then where are your helmets?!" "Oh, it's because we're short of money lately, and our helmets were taken by the big sister to exchange for charcoal." Si Wang shrugged, and he pouted in the direction of Aci Gu Ri Fumi, "But you don't have to worry about that. After we finish this job, if we have a chance to meet again next time, you will be able to see the helmets on our heads." "I see." The black market guard showed a look of understanding. She remembered the scene she saw when she passed by the Steel Helmet Regiment’s base - a group of people gathered in front of a campfire, staring blankly at the iron pot with steam rising from it. I was wondering why that group of people all looked like they had no one to love them, it turns out they had spent all their money and came to the black market to find work! Thinking of how she had to work as a security guard in the black market to pay off her debts from loan robbery, she showed a sympathetic expression and encouraged, "Okay, then I wish you good luck in your work and say goodbye to the cactus soon!" Si Wang accepted the blessing generously, "Thank you." Although they said so, after finishing this job, will Lan Wu and her Steel Helmets be able to eat the cactus... It's all a problem. "Thank...thank you!" Looking at the backs of the black market guards swarming over and then swarming away, Ajitani Hifumi finally let go of the worry in her heart. She breathed a sigh of relief and showed a grateful look to the girls standing in front of her. She also wanted to give Si Wang a smile to express her gratitude, but Si Wang's previous performance in the Steel Helmet Regiment was so outstanding that she didn't dare to look at Si Wang directly. It's okay, Hifumi! The girl encouraged herself in her heart. Just say thank you, a few words, and have the courage! You can do it!
"By the way, Hifumi-san." Si Wang's voice rang out suddenly, and Aci Gu Ri Fumi, who had just raised half of her neck, instantly shrank back in fright. He glanced at the girl, not paying much attention to her strange behavior, and continued, "You can see that the black market environment doesn't seem to be very friendly to you. If you don't mind, do you want us to act together next?" "Mmmmmmm!" Ajitani Hifumi nodded desperately, not knowing whether out of fear or agreement. The girls of Abydos were silent. They didn't understand why it looked like kidnapping when they were clearly doing good things. Chapter 58 I Want to Get Beaten Again Jingle bell bell bell bell! Jingle bell bell bell bell! A shrill ringing sounded in the studio, and Convenience House 68's eyes were involuntarily focused on the desk, on the turntable phone that their president had bought from the flea market at a high price. Lu Bamo Alu rested her hands on her chin. Although her eyes were fixed on the ringing phone in front of her, her pupils were dazed. It was obvious that she had not recovered from the reality of being knocked down by someone before, and she was still immersed in a spiritual world of self-doubt. "Alu-chan, what are you still thinking about?" Asagi Mutsuki put down her phone helplessly, looked at her president who was either in a daze or in a daze, and reminded her, "Is there a call coming?" "..." Lu Bamo Alu blinked. Although there was no digital screen to display the incoming caller ID, she had a pretty good guess as to who was calling. Thinking of the promise she made in front of a client, she raised her eyelids, looked at the white ceiling, and decided to pretend that she was not at home and did not hear the call. "This look..." Seeing her president's face resisting reality, Kayoko Onikata understood instantly, "Could it be a customer?" "Wow, even if it's a customer calling, you wouldn't just ignore it," Asagi Mutsuki obviously didn't know how much her president boasted in front of the customer before, so she had no idea how much of a struggle the other party was in. She asked in confusion, "Wouldn't it be OK to just report the mission failed?" "Lord Alu..." Igusa Haruka looked at her beloved president with eyes full of worry. She subconsciously reached for the shotgun beside her, wanting to shoot down the phone that was causing her president trouble. After counting the lines on the ceiling for a long time, considering that the other party was indeed a rare big customer, Lu Bamo Alu swallowed his saliva and finally picked up the microphone slowly, "Hello... This is Convenience House 68." "Why did you take so long to answer the phone? Is the signal bad?" A deep voice first came from the microphone and then gave up the topic, "Forget it, how is the commission going?" "Well... how should I put it? We have already launched an attack on Abydos. Not only did we mobilize all our forces, we also hired a famous local mercenary organization at a high price!" In just one sentence, Lu Bamo Alu changed seven positions on the office chair. His eyes looked from the window to the light bulb, then to the door, and finally back to the window. Back and forth, his eyes were like a toad's huge shape, and ... She stammered, "Not only did the test show that there were five people in Abydos..." "That's not right, Alu-chan." Light yellow bathing, who was playing with her phone again, suddenly interrupted, "There are six people~" "Oh, yes, there are six people!" Although he didn't know why one more person suddenly appeared, Lu Bamo Alu immediately changed his words and said, "There is also a tank, a drone, a rotary Gatling gun, and a delicious and affordable ramen restaurant..." By the end of the conversation, Lu Bamo Alu knew what he was saying. In short, he just said whatever he thought of, and he wanted to even say that there was a piece of barbecued pork in the bowl of ramen he was eating. "..." I don't know if he was confused by this nonsensical report or was digesting the useful information in it. After a long silence, the other party slowly spoke, "Well, it seems that you really did not live up to the high price I spent on this attack. It took a lot of thought."
"Yeah, yeah!" Lu Bamo Alu nodded desperately and secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. I didn't expect this big customer to be so considerate. The girl thought with great relief. "So..." The word "so" made Lu Bamo Alu's heart rise to his throat again. "This time we found out the information about Abydos. The next time we attack, we can take down Abydos. Is that okay?" "Eh?" Lu Bamo Alu looked at the microphone in disbelief and asked subconsciously, "Is there going to be another...attack...?" "Hmm? Please move the microphone closer." An unhappy voice came from the other end, "You just spoke too softly!" "Ah, I just said, that's not right! I didn't say anything just now!" Lu Bamo Alu hurriedly put the microphone to her lips. When she was about to repeat what she said, her brain suddenly pulled and she changed her words instantly, "What I mean is! The next time we attack, we will definitely take down Abydos in one go! Don't worry!" Asagi Mutsuki and Onikata Kayoko suddenly widened their eyes, turned their heads, and looked at the president who was talking nonsense as if he were a monster. "That's good." The serious voice on the other side slowed down a little, "Then when will the next attack be?" "As for the specific time... this... that..." Under the dual pressure of the customer's voice and the gaze of her own employees, dense beads of sweat oozed from Lu Bamo Alu's forehead. The girl, whose brain was already confused, made up a time casually, "It should be in two days... three days... In short, Abydos will definitely be taken down within a week!" "Very good!" The other party said very satisfiedly, "If you can take Abydos within a week, I will double the commission money!" beep-- The long busy tone echoed in the silent studio. "what--!" A scream broke the awkward silence in the studio. Lu Bamo Alu slammed his head against the desk and let out a heart-wrenching cry. "What on earth did I say?!" "You look desperate, Alu-chan~" Asagi Mutsuki did not comfort the regretful president, but instead smiled and added, "Wouldn't it be better if you just told the truth just now?" "President..." Kayoko Onikata looked at the president who banged his head on the table speechlessly, "You are not really planning to continue fighting with those Abydos students, are you?" "You heard it, right? The client has doubled the commission due to my rhetoric!" Lu Bamo Alu raised his red forehead and tried to explain, "This guy must be a big shot. Even if it's for future commissions, we must not fail this mission!" Looking at the president who was still steadfast in his words, although she was mentally prepared, Kayoko Onikata couldn't help but reveal an expression of toothache. "But the guys in Abydos are much stronger than we expected. With the presence of teacher [Xia Lai] who always completes the commissioned tasks, we can't beat the guys in Abydos on our own." Asahi Mutsuki spread the news about Si Wang that he had just checked on his phone on the table. "Besides, we have already spent most of our own money. If we just use our faces to block the opponent's shield, we will have no chance of winning." "Stop... stop talking so much!" Chapter 59: Black Marshal "Ah... Master Alu." Looking at the frustrated Lu Bamo Alu, Igusa Haruka tried hard to use her brain and came up with the only way she could think of to make money, "How about I go work and earn some money?" "Haruka..." Onikata Kayoko rubbed her temples, looking at her companion who had no concept of money at all with a headache, and said helplessly, "If we only rely on part-time jobs, we will probably have to work for a year to earn the money of a mercenary. If we add the rent of this luxurious office... She glanced at her president and said, "I'm afraid we'll have to work in two shifts..." "What's the good of renting an expensive office? After all, an office is the standard for a legitimate company!" Lu Bamo Alu was looked at helplessly by Guifang Jiayizi. She was thick-skinned and forced to defend herself, "Look! It's because I rented this expensive office that I was able to receive the commission from that big shot!"
"But we're not a legitimate company, Alu-chan. We don't even have a fake business license." Asagi Mutsuki tapped his chin, deliberately revealing an expression of reminiscing about something. "Besides, I think it's not bad to set up a tent in the park and sleep on the same mat like before." “Of course you think it’s [pretty good]!” Lu Bamo Alu seemed to recall some painful memory, and her expression suddenly became excited, slamming the table loudly, “You deliberately snatch my quilt every night and kick me out of the tent. Do you know how cold the wind in the early morning is?! Anyway, Mutsuki, shut up!” Asahi Mutsuki saluted with a smile and put his hand to his mouth to make a zippering gesture. "Huh...huh..." Lu Bamo Alu took a long breath before calming her violent heartbeat. Just when everyone was slowly turning their attention back to the things at hand, she suddenly said, "I want a loan." "Huh?!" Asagi Mutsuki turned around and threw away her previous promise to "shut up" and raised her eyebrows in surprise, "Alu-chan, weren't you included in the blacklist?" "No, I only froze my account when Gehenna was wanted." A drop of sweat fell from Lu Bamo Alu's forehead. He didn't understand how his companions could find out something he had hidden so deeply. "When I was outside the academy, my account could still be used normally." "Ah... I remember now." Asahi Mutsuki hammered his palm and suddenly realized, "It seems that those people from the Discipline Committee did it?" “Qi… those guys from the Discipline Committee…” Hearing the name of the Discipline Committee, Lu Bamo Alu subconsciously shrank her neck, and then she seemed to feel that she was afraid of them, so she leaned back on the chair and squinted her eyes in a pretentious manner, “I didn’t expect that even after leaving Gehenna, they would still haunt me until now!” "But it's useless~" Asagi Mutsuki twirled the ends of her ponytail with her fingers and said casually, "If we are wanted by the student union, even if we leave our own college, the banks of other colleges or the central bank will refuse us entry." "No, don't worry!" Lu Bamo Alu straightened his back and neck, trying his best to make his tone sound more convincing, "As the president, of course I have a unique channel that only the president can know!" Looking at the president who was glancing around and obviously talking nonsense, Kayoko Onikata couldn't bear to look at him, so she turned her head and sighed secretly. I can only pray that I, the president who acts on my own accord, will not make the already deficit-ridden bill... even worse. "Hmph, just wait and see, Abydos, this matter is far from over." On one side was the doubled commission money, and on the other side was the future of being able to sleep in the park again. Lu Bamo Alu's heart suddenly surged with endless determination and courage. "The convenience store commission has only just begun!" Lu Bamo Alu raised his head and laughed wildly, then rushed out of the office, leaving only his determined declaration echoing in the corridor and the room. "Master Alu, please wait for me!" Igusa Haruka's face changed drastically. She picked up her weapon in a panic and ran out behind Lu Bamo Alu. "Hey~ Kayoko-chan." Asagi Mutsuki looked at the two people who disappeared at the door, then turned to look at his companions, "What do you think Alu-chan will do?" Kayoko Onikata did not answer her companion's question, but shook her head helplessly, "Be prepared to clean up the mess." ------------------------------------- A hand made of silver-black metal hung up the phone. The burly male... robot, leaned all his weight on the boss chair and fell into deep thought. "The data of those guys in Abydos should be correct. Is it a miscalculation or some missing condition?" He muttered to himself, then shook his head and rejected it. "No, the power they showed is obviously beyond the error range..." "You look like you are troubled." The sound of unhurried footsteps and a man's voice came from behind.
Caesar raised his head silently, and a slender figure slowly stepped out from the shadows of the office. He was neither tall nor short, just like any office worker you would see on the street, wearing a well-fitting suit, a tie that was ironed without a single wrinkle, and even the decoration on his chest was a plain white tissue. But when people see his head and hands, the only things exposed, no one would associate him with an office worker rushing on the road. All of his exposed skin was replaced by a glass-like black color, crystal clear, but without any other color except black. What's even more horrifying is that he has no facial features. White cracks like glass cracks crawl out from under his collar and spread to his entire face, crossing and merging where the facial features should be, forming organs similar to eyes and a mouth, and cold white light seeps out from them.
