Chapter 393 The Spinning Top Girl
As always, the gathering was very lively.
Rui Bu Si brought him, Ming Mo brought the human girl, and Huan Hun didn't come alone this time. She didn't bring any subordinates, but she brought the cat named "Bo Bo".
Looking around, the darkness seemed even more like a lonely, marginalized vampire.
The shop owner finally realized that the "girl" he had been befriending for a while was not a rich family's foolish child, nor did she have any passionate heart to uphold justice.
However, compared to her "enemies," the "friends" who could keep her enemies from entering the shop were obviously more approachable.
Neither the barren land nor anyone else would hold a knife to her throat and force her to pay back the money.
A large table of uneaten dishes was served. During the meal, the spirit summoner said something that made Huangwu burst into laughter, almost causing him to fall to the ground, chair and all.
While Miya Xing was in a daze, she skillfully caught it with quick eyes and hands, preventing a tragedy from repeating itself.
Huangwu was very satisfied with his performance.
Perhaps the distance diminished the resentment, as the conversation did not involve the Dark Emperor.
They talked about various magical planets in the universe, and when the topic of Aurora came up, a few people began to speculate on when Aurora would be overwhelmed and explode.
Mingmo believed that with the help of the Elf and Quark races, the Aurora race could slowly transfer the excess aurora radiation energy on the planet to the Aurora Land, and the Aurora Star would not head towards the predicted destruction.
“That’s hard to say,” Huangwu said, swirling his glass. “The Quark race is very arrogant and aloof. How many of them would risk their lives on Aurora Star?”
“Hmm,” unusually, Huanhun did not refute, “‘Help’ find a proper place for the Aurora Radiation Energy is already more than enough for those quark people.”
He deliberately emphasized a few words, his tone quite playful.
His gaze fell on the human girl who was engrossed in eating, and he smiled and said, "I guess it's between 700 and 730 years ago."
The word "guess" is used so casually, yet it reveals a great deal of affectation.
"You guessed it already? Who knows how much you've looked at in private and how many times you've tested it behind everyone's back~~~"
Just as a soul summoner wouldn't randomly utter a baseless number, desolation certainly wouldn't miss any opportunity to thoroughly beat up a soul summoner.
Mingmo added casually, "Mingqing saw you studying the soil of Aurora Star."
Mingqing is a new name for a human girl.
After being brought back by Mingmo, she for some reason said she wanted to take Mingmo's surname.
Clearly, a spirit stone without a name cannot possibly have a surname.
No one present was an expert in human social psychology, and no one cared what they were called.
Naturally, Mingmo wouldn't stop Mingqing from choosing whatever name she wanted.
Upon hearing her name, the human girl swallowed the food in her mouth. Although she didn't understand why Mingmo would speak up for Huangwu, she would never contradict her savior.
"Yes."
The call to the soul was silent for a moment, and in the end, it just pursed its lips.
She wanted to let it go, but the desolate, lewd voice kept chasing after her: "Oh, the mind-stealing technique didn't get you what you wanted, did it?"
The gloomy duchess appeared at this time.
She burst in suddenly, her anger evident to anyone who saw her displeasure.
The shop owner initially tried to stop something from entering, but then realized it was a spinning top-like energy that could conjure people up. After glancing at the expression on the face of the distinguished guest who was sitting perfectly still, he decided not to get involved.
The distinguished guest remained calm, showing no sign of taking his anger out on her. He glanced around and thought, "Hmm, she can continue to hide in the corner."
As for a fight?
She weighed the money in her hand.
Consider it a renovation.
"What are you two secretly discussing here?" She was clearly furious inside, but she pretended to be nonchalant as she spoke.
His feigned indifference made it sound like he cared a lot.
No one spoke at the table. Ming Qing was resting after eating her fill, and the only noise was from the fat cat trying to steal fish.
Noticing the attention, the kitten released the fish and pretended to walk by. Somehow, its paw accidentally landed on the fish. Then, as if waking from a dream, it realized what had happened and busily began licking its paw.
"Sitting down is fine, don't tire yourself out." Huangwu broke the silence, his posture slumped in the chair unchanged. "Boss, another friend has arrived, please add another chair. No need for the food, the new friend doesn't eat."
The shop owner remained on guard, constantly on edge, ready to flee at any moment.
However, the scene was unexpectedly calm. She didn't react for a moment, and it was only after her daughter nudged her a couple of times that she hurriedly went to move a chair.
"Who said I don't eat?" As if venting her anger, the gloomy duchess picked up the cutlery, taking a little from one plate and stirring it a couple of times from another. She didn't eat much, but she stirred the food in each plate into something completely unappetizing.
Mingqing hesitated, as if he wanted to speak.
Huangwu kindly asked her quietly what was wrong.
The little girl glanced at Mingmo, and after receiving his approval, she said, "Bobo accidentally stepped into what the gloomy duchess was eating."
Before the words were even finished, Huangwu burst into uncontrollable laughter and slammed his fist on the table. The gloomy duchess looked at the cat, her face turning ashen.
What the little girl didn't say was that Bobo had just buried cat poop outside before stepping in, and Huanhun disliked the smell on it, so she let it air out for a long time before letting it in.
For some reason, shortly after they came in, it was too late by the time they discovered the cat washing its paws with vegetable soup.
Fortunately, apart from Ming Qing, no one else eats these things.
"Yes, it scratched around a couple of times like it was digging in the litter box with its feet that had just buried its poop." She wouldn't say it, but the soul-summoning technique wouldn't work.
After leisurely finishing the story in her own voice, the gloomy duchess rushed out with an extremely ugly expression.
The entire inn was instantly filled with a joyful atmosphere.
“Hey,” Huangwu wiped the saline solution that had spilled from the corner of his eye, “Let’s continue, let’s bet on something. I guess Aurora Star will explode in 650 years at the latest.”
“I wouldn’t dare gamble with you,” Huanhun sneered, feigning fear after being tricked multiple times. “If nothing happens when the time is up, you’ll have to go and blow up Aurora Star.”
Huangwu pouted in dissatisfaction: "How could I possibly have such great abilities?"
The summoned soul did not answer, and turned to ask, "Dark Night, guess which time?"
Not long after, words that seemed to carry a chilling aura floated from his lips: "650 years ago."
There really aren't any good bets left now.
"Ah~~" The plan failed, and Huangwu lay on the table with regret, his tone blaming, "At least we could have tricked them into signing a contract first."
"Be careful next time."
Before they could say anything more, there was another noise at the door, followed by an "ouch" and a complaint:
"Who's playing with a spinning top in front of the store in broad daylight?"
Looking up, I saw a girl spinning like a top standing at the doorway.
She has
A spun-top-like balance,
Spinning like a top,
The speed of a spinning top
He was filled with anger as he stood before the door.
He was filled with rage, raising his fists and rolling up his sleeves.
"Isn't this Young Master A-San?"
The gloomy duchess happened to know the name that Desolation had shouted, which involved the Dark Emperor's plan, so she had to reluctantly put her hand down.
When the shop owner saw that Ah San, who had left, had returned, he quickly took his daughter and prepared to sneak away.
Unfortunately, another person came along who wanted to stay at the inn. He had excellent eyesight and, amidst the bustling activity, pointed directly at the innkeeper, shouting that he wanted to stay at the inn.
Miya Xing murmured "great-grandfather," and the shopkeeper forgot his escape plan, the guest forgot he wanted to stay, and only A-San shouted "Thief! Thief!"
No one paid attention.
Two passersby saw a crowd gathered and, wanting to watch the spectacle, approached. Upon closer inspection, they discovered that it was the Elf Lord with someone else. The Elf Lord naturally recognized Desolation and, with a quick glance, accurately located Dark Night.
He stopped watching the spectacle, his eyes lit up, and he strode over to discuss business with Dark Night.
As soon as they approached, Huangwu, with a gloomy face, blocked their way, pointed at the people following behind the Elf Master, and shouted, "Liar, give me back my money!"
The cult leader, standing in the middle, tried to mediate: "Misunderstanding! This is my high priest; there must be some misunderstanding!"
The shop owner quickly stepped forward to testify: "There's no misunderstanding! She was the one who told us the secret to getting rich that day!"
It would have been better if she hadn't stepped forward. But as soon as she did, Ah San, disregarding the presence of important figures, rushed in and grabbed the shopkeeper, demanding her money back.
The shopkeeper yelled that he had been swindled out of all his money by the high priest. Asan, not to be outdone, pointed out the time issue. Huangwu was only interested in getting her money back. Anye stared at the elven priest, who was too busy negotiating to deal with business.
The person who had been clamoring for a hotel room stopped yelling. He patted the gloomy duchess on the shoulder: "Miss Spinning Top, do you know what's going on here?"
