"?!"
Xia Ye was embarrassed and startled.
After all, she was in a room without windows and could not hear any sounds from outside. In addition, since her resurrection, no one had come to disturb her. This made her subconsciously think that she was hiding in a very secret place. A place where as long as you don’t go out, no one will ever find you.
"Dong dong dong dong dong——"
The knock on the door sounded again, and now Xia Ye knew that she had guessed wrong.
She didn't respond vocally, let alone open the door. It wasn't that she was afraid of danger - it was mainly for the sake of the person who knocked on the door. If the other person saw a headless person opening the door, they would definitely faint from fright.
As long as you don't make a sound, the other party will think that there is no one in the room and leave after a while?
"Dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong, dong..."
But the man outside seemed to be really insistent. This time the knocking lasted longer than the previous two times. When it finally stopped, a voice rang through the door.
Although Xia Ye had never heard this language before, she quickly understood its meaning based on the memory of the original host. This language is not a witch script specifically used for contracts, but a "lingua franca" used by witches for daily communication.
"Open the door, open the door! Don't pretend you're not home! I know you're inside!"
The voice was not unpleasant at all. It should have been made by a very young girl. There was even a little softness and childishness in the crisp tone.
But the above-mentioned advantages were completely overshadowed by the extremely arrogant tone.
"Dong dong dong - I know you are hiding inside! Open the door, open the door, open the door..."
"..."
With so much anger, he must be here to catch the mistress, right? An idea suddenly came to Xia Ye's mind.
But then she denied it: How could anyone find a headless person as their lover? No, no one’s system would be so weird, right?
The voice outside the door rang again: "You have the ability to owe the rent! Don't you have the guts to open the door?!"
Oh, it turned out that I was here to chase the rent, so that’s okay.
Xia Ye suddenly realized. Thinking back carefully, when she just woke up, she did hear "The smart housekeeper reminds you that you owe 120 moles of rent" or something like that.
It seems that the original host not only owed a head, but also defaulted on the rent, and then ran away, leaving a pile of debts to himself as a time traveler.
It's a job that's done for a long time.
Since I'm just here to catch up on the rent, I just need to make up for it. As a witch who can overdraw my magic power, this lady only has 120 magic. Of course, that's not a problem.
Oh, by the way, don't scare the landlord when the door opens later. After all, you have no head.
When she was just rummaging through the room, Xia Ye spotted something that was barely usable. Now that she was in a hurry, she didn't have time to think too much. She immediately rushed over to pick it up and put it around her neck.
Then he stuffed the crystal that sealed the "rift" contract into the secret pocket of the skirt.
Finally, she walked to the door with steady steps and opened the door.
"open--"
Looking down slightly, Xia Ye saw a petite girl. Her mouth was half-opened, and her mid-shouting was choked in her throat by the sudden appearance of Xia Ye.
It's so small, but it looks pretty cute.
Xia Ye commented secretly in her heart. Her own height is not very tall. If she had a head, she would be around 1.57 meters. However, due to her slender figure, she looks a little taller than her actual height.
The one in front of me seems to only reach my neck, which is probably only 140...at most 145, and it can't be any higher.
However, the opponent's body proportions are definitely not bad.
Wearing a dark red short dress on her petite body, the style is similar to that of a gothic lolita. The size is roughly the same as Xia Ye's 55cm, and her chest is decorated with a beautiful large butterfly festival. The waistband of the skirt is set very high, and the hem of the skirt is lifted up high with the support of the bustle. The combination of the two makes the girl's lower body visually appear more slender.
What occupies most of the length of the lower body is the pair of legs protruding from the skirt. The white legs are wrapped in translucent black pantyhose, showing a texture like a work of art. If you look carefully, you will also find that the stockings on the right side are embroidered with a delicate dark pattern. It is like a leg ring, bound to the upper middle of the thigh.
Xia Ye shifted her gaze to the girl's face again.
Beautiful, 2-super beautiful, 3-super invincible beauty--she hesitated for about 0.5 seconds and finally gave a rating of 2.5.
Stronger than "Super Beautiful" but weaker than "Super Invincible Beautiful".
To receive such an evaluation under the scrutiny of a well-read LSP shows that the girl's appearance has reached a very high level.
Her facial features are exquisite, her cheeks have a slight hint of cute baby fat, her eyes are not only big, but her pupils are as blue as the sea, her long and neat bangs cover her forehead, her hair is golden, and she has two symmetrical ponytails. The ponytails were carefully rolled into a spiral shape. The girl's head shook slightly, and the curly twin ponytails swayed playfully, making people want to grab them in their hands and pull them hard a few times.
This hairstyle is great. Xia Ye thought to herself.
It's not that she likes this kind of twin ponytails, but she thinks this hairstyle goes well with the girl's current arrogant expression. It's the kind of character that often appears in comics. If she yells "Miscellaneous" a few more times, Fish", the elements are completely complete.
"Hello, little sister, what do you want from me?" Xia Ye asked pleasantly.
It's just that because there is no brain, neither "harmony" nor "pleasure" can be expressed.
The other party only saw a strange woman standing in front of him. The person's clothes were normal from the neck down, but above the neck, she wore a triangular hood. The corners of the hood facing the front were longer and drooped slightly, like a bird's beak. Likewise, the surface is also stained with a suspicious dark red color, I don’t know if it’s dye or...
All in all, it's very weird, very weird.
In fact, this "hood" was a witch's hat that failed to be made, and those blood-like stains were just some red dye. Xia Ye found it from a pile of scrap fabrics, because it just happened to fit around the neck securely, so Just make use of it.
However, these trivial matters probably don’t matter if they are not explained.
"babble……"
The blonde girl seemed to tremble for a moment, but then she raised her head without showing any signs of weakness and said loudly: "I am not a little sister, my name is Lilian, and I am the landlord of this house!"
"Okay, landlady sister."
"I told you not to scream..."
"So you're here to collect rent?"
Hearing the word "rent", the girl seemed to have finally remembered the topic, and didn't bother with the title anymore: "Ah, yes, you haven't paid the rent for three months. Are you trying to deny it?"
"No problem." Xia Ye nodded, her dark red triangular hood shaking slightly, "So, how much rent should I pay?"
"As agreed before, it's 40 moles a month, and 120 moles for three months. Late payment fees and so on. My landlord is very generous and won't charge you any more."
"Okay, how should I pay you?"
Seeing Xia Ye agreeing so easily, the girl became a little doubtful. She hesitated, took out a palm-sized rectangular crystal plate from the small leather bag on her waist, and handed it to Xia Ye.
"Pay me for the crystal brush."
"What is this?" Xia Ye asked, looking at the crystal in the other person's hand.
"You don't even know this?" The other party looked at her with an expression that looked like a fool, "Of course it's a crystal ball. Don't you have a crystal ball yourself?"
"Crystal ball?"
Xia Ye couldn't figure out what the relationship between the rectangular crystal block and the "ball" was.
"Shouldn't the crystal ball be such a big, round ball?" she said again, while making a spherical shape with her hands.
As soon as the words came out, the other party's eyes became even stranger.
"You're talking about... that's a crystal ball from decades ago, right? Who still uses those stupid and heavy antiques nowadays? Hey, wait..." She looked at Xia Ye's strange headgear and couldn't help but He took a step back and said, "You, you, you are not some strange guy who has been sealed for hundreds of years and just escaped, are you?!"
