"Dead...dead? No...you must be lying to me again. How could she...how could she..."
Yaha's expression became excited again, and although his limbs were numb and weak, he still struggled to stand up.
"She didn't lie to you." Luka said suddenly. She took out a photo from her pocket and threw it in front of Yaha.
The other party lowered his head and glanced at the photos on the ground, and then he could no longer look away.
She slowly lowered her body, her face almost touching the ground. After staring for a long time, a few tears suddenly fell on the photo.
The photo showed the body of a girl, with no head and an irregular break on the neck. The white skirt and the surrounding ground were covered with radiating blood stains.
"She was killed by a pet collar," Luca said.
"..."
"When 'Yuan Ship Leasing' disposed of your family's property, your pet... Momo took the initiative to ask to sell herself at an appraised value, and all the proceeds were used to repay your debt. 'Yuan Ship Leasing' agreed immediately. , and was quickly sold at the pet market for 130 moles. After the new buyer put a collar on her, she diligently attached it...and then something happened at this time."
"..." Yaha still lowered her head and remained silent, but Xia Ye could tell that she was listening.
Luka continued to tell: "Momo took out a dagger that had been hidden from her sleeve and stabbed her buyer. Because the distance was too close, the man had no time to stop or dodge. But because the other party had protective properties on his body, contract, so in the end the dagger only caused a small scratch.
But perhaps this was Momo's intention, she caused harm to the buyer, even though it was only a small amount of damage, it was enough to trigger the detonation mechanism engraved in the collar. The collar exploded, blowing Momo's head to pieces. She died on the spot, and her buyer was also affected. Despite the protection of the contract, he still suffered serious injuries. "
"However, there is still one thing that is good news." Luca paused and continued.
Yaha finally raised his head and looked at her.
"Momo died after the transaction was completed, so all consequences are borne by the buyer. As for the 130 moles she received from selling herself, it has been deducted from your debt. In other words, because Momo, you can pay off the debt by 130 moles less."
Yaha stared at Luka's face for a few seconds to make sure she wasn't lying. Then he turned to look at Xia Ye, as if he wanted to find some traces of Momo on her face. Finally, she lowered her head and looked at the body in the photo again.
The expression on her face was extremely complicated, as if she was crying, but also as if she was laughing.
"Haha...hahaha...as expected of you...Momo...hahahaha..."
Yaha smiled, tears sliding down her cheeks again.
"Come on!" She suddenly raised her voice.
"Kill me! Drain my magic power! Take my cup and contract to pay off the debt of the 'ship charter'!"
"In this way, at least I can become Moer and stay with Momo in my debt... Haha, hahahaha..."
Luka turned her head and glanced at Xia Ye, telling her with her eyes that she was ready to carry out bankruptcy liquidation proceedings against Yaha.
But Xia Ye shook her head.
"Yaha." She leaned down and said to Yaha: "I have another question to ask you."
But Yaha didn't even look at her, he was still laughing to himself.
Xia Ye sighed and lowered her head in silence for a few seconds. When she raised her face again, she had transformed into Momo again.
"Yaha, look at me." She used Momo's voice.
This time, the effect was immediate. Yaha raised her head and saw "Momo" bending down and looking at her with concern. She took a breath and felt that her heartbeat had skipped a beat. But then, she realized that Momo was dead, and the person in front of her was just a fake.
"Why did you become like her?" she asked hoarsely.
"Of course it's to calm you down."
As Xia Ye said this, she simply squatted down, resting her elbows on her round knees, holding her chin up with her two palms, and looking up at Yaha slightly.
"Look, isn't it very effective?"
Yaha glared at her angrily.
"What? You don't like it? Do you think I insulted Momo?" Xia Ye bit her lower lip as if she was aggrieved, "Then I'll change back..."
"No!" Yaha blurted out, but as soon as she said it, she regretted it, her face couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, and she didn't know what to say for a moment.
Xia Ye smiled evilly as if her conspiracy had succeeded.
Even before she traveled through time, she had already realized deeply that people would be obsessed with false things.
For example, a person who longs for love but can never fall in love will devote his emotions to characters in games, animations or novels, even if he knows that they are not real.
Not only that, even people who have been in love, or even are in love, are also likely to pour their emotions into it, because reality is full of flaws and even painful, and is far less perfect than fiction.
It doesn't matter whether it's true or false, it just depends on whether it can fill the gap dug by desire in the heart. As long as it can, falsehood is just a small shortcoming.
Humans are like this, and now it seems that witches are also like this.
"I won't stop you if you want to die. If you die, I can still divide the commission." Xia Ye said in an indifferent tone, "But before that, I have a question to ask you: Have you really met you?" Did you mention the white whale and injured it?"
Yaha was slightly startled. She didn't expect that Xia Ye would ask such a question.
"Of course!" she said without hesitation, "I struggled with that monster for two weeks. If I hadn't failed in the end, the entire Lower City would be talking about my deeds now! But now... haha, I'm just Just a dead person bragging."
"Tell me about hunting that whale. I want to hear the whole process. The more details the better." Xia Ye said seriously.
"Are you...sure?" Yaha looked at her in disbelief, "That will probably take a long time."
Xia Ye raised her head and looked at Luka: "Can you give me a moment?"
"Just don't go past 12 o'clock tonight."
"Look, we still have a lot of time." Xia Ye smiled at Yaha, then turned to Luka and said: "Kind Captain Luka, can you bring me two chairs? If you keep squatting like this, People’s legs will be numb…”
"Hey, don't go too far!" Alyssa, who had been trying not to speak, finally couldn't bear it anymore.
But Xia Ye smiled at her and said calmly: "Don't forget who saved you just now."
Alyssa suddenly fell silent.
After being stared at by Xia Ye for a few seconds, she finally said: "I'll get you a chair!" She turned around and ran away.
Yaha watched this scene silently, thinking that this "Momo" in front of him was really scary.
Two minutes later.
The five people present, each with a chair, sat in a circle in the center of the factory.
Xia Ye sat next to Yaha, still looking like Momo.
"You may begin," she said to Yaha.
