Steel steam and flame

"Before that information reaches this villa, you have time to think about it. Please think clearly, Miss Lavalar." Before the door was completely closed, Ye Jielin's words slipped in through the gap.

Seeing everyone leave, Lahualar finally breathed a sigh of relief. Her body was weak and she leaned against the wall. She looked at the ceiling, wondering what choice she should make now. It was a lie to say that she was not afraid of death, but she knew that even if she did as Ye Jielin asked, the probability of surviving in the end was still very low. Although she believes that Ye Jielin is a person of his word.

Is Varun still alive? Before the information was brought over by Lyle, Lahua Lal had been thinking about it. She remembered that she had contacted Valen not long ago to determine the time for him to come back to the villa to interrogate Eliric, because Porphyta was already a little dissatisfied with the efficiency of the two of them.

"It doesn't seem surprising that Valen made this choice. He was not a good person in the first place." Lahualar's heart finally collapsed. She remembered what happened before she and Varun followed Porphyra. Their experiences were somewhat similar. They were born in a less prosperous area. When they were seventeen or eighteen, they left their birthplace and went to a nearby prosperous area. However, they plunged into a steam factory and began a few years of monotony and boredom. life.

There doesn't seem to be much change. The only difference is that the salary every month has indeed increased a lot. Later, the factory closed down due to poor management. The two people, who became active in thinking after entering a prosperous area, took away some important core components and process materials from the factory before leaving, which later brought them a large amount of money.

The transformation started here. Human laziness and bad habits suddenly took root in the two of them and became entangled in sequence. From then on, I accidentally came into contact with the dark world, and the things I saw were expanded to several times the original size in a very short period of time. It was also after two or three years of wandering in the dark world that the two of them learned about the existence of such miraculous things as surgery in the world almost at the same time.

Now that Lahualar thought about what happened at that time, he always thought that he was confused by others because of his lack of knowledge. It can also be seen as being too curious about doing things. A Dark World merchant who can provide shoddy surgery is also a moneylender. As a businessman, it is too simple to confuse two fanatics who are eager to obtain power beyond ordinary people. All that needs to be done is to show the basics and stimulate the desires that have been suppressed in their hearts.

There is no need to abide by the laws of the empire, money and status can be obtained naturally, and you can also live longer than ordinary people! Seeing that an ordinary bullet hitting the businessman's head only scratched the skin a little, the two men's hearts were filled with surgery. Within a few days, they signed a loan agreement with the businessman and ended up performing shoddy surgery.

But there will definitely be a gap between reality and ideals. Their lives in the first few months will indeed be as they imagined. Living according to their own desires is what many people long for. But nearly half a year later, the skyrocketing price of tranquilizers and the unilateral increase in borrowing interest rates made the two react for the first time.

He is nothing more than a profit-making tool arbitrarily kept by merchants in the dark world. It was also at that time that the two realized the rules of the surgeon's circle. They had no intention of resisting, and their shoddy surgeries were not on the same level as the men of merchants in the dark world. Without basic training, a fully armed team of ordinary people could easily hunt them down.

Since then, they have tried their best to make money, but compared to the ever-increasing interest rates, their abilities seem to be lacking a lot. It was then that I met Porphyta, who was assigned by the family. It's just that Lahualla met Bophy in the tavern - she became more and more beautiful after the operation, and she seemed to have found her only advantage. Warren, on the other hand, met the two of them outside the tavern, thinking of robbing people who came out of the tavern in the middle of the night.

Fortunately, Porfetta had just come out of the family at that time, and her personality had not yet become what it is now. From then on, he became Porfetta's subordinate until now.

Lahualar felt that he should be grateful, but at this moment he finally calmed down completely. Recalling what happened in the past few years, she felt for the first time that she had just moved from one captive circle to another many years ago. It's just that the circle is wider now, so wide that you can't see the hidden fence without spending some effort to run in one direction.

"After all, it's just someone else's tool. It's like this in the factory, and it's still like this now, but the level is higher and a lot more decorations are added."

The sound of the door opening interrupted Lahualar's thoughts. Ye Jielin, Hai and others walked in, holding a stack of recently copied materials in their hands, smelling of warm ink. It's a photo, and the sound recorded in the pub at the time.

Lahualar waved his hand: "No, I can comply with your request, but I hope Miss Ye Jielin can fulfill your agreement. I need a sum of money. Although I have been following Pofita for several years, everything has nothing to do with the benefits. All the relevant things are in his hands, all I did was help calculate the amount."

"You can rest assured, I will let you leave here." Ye Jielin replied, "Then, I have a question, how long has it been since Porphyra last came back here?

"Wait until dawn, which will be four days. Calling Master Pofita here at this time should not arouse suspicion. Because according to the established time, Valen will also return to the villa today and use his own methods to interrogate Eliric , obtain this information.”

"Then the next thing will trouble you. You can receive our treatment before dawn." Ye Jielin said, turning her head to look at Hai, "Mr. Hai."

"Don't worry. With the medication and Miss Lahualar's own surgery, I think her legs will be able to regain basic walking ability before dawn. The only flaw is that they won't be very flexible."

There were still a few hours before dawn, and Cassia and Haike began to talk about their plan to deal with Pofetta. As the ultimate goal, there is no need to consider the damage of firearms to the villa, and the result is quickly finalized. Ye Jielin and Hai are both good at this.

At about nine o'clock in the morning, Lahualar came to the hall with two simple crutches. My legs have recovered somewhat, and I can barely walk without the crutches. She sat down at the table and Lyle helped bring in the communication machine.

"Master Pofetta." When the other side responded, Lavalar reported as usual, "Valen returned to the villa around four o'clock in the morning. After several hours of interrogation, Eliric revealed the information in his hand. The place where it is stored. I have sent someone to pick it up. Whether the young master needs to come over to confirm, and how to deal with Eliric."

The conversation was short. Cassia and others standing aside kept their breathing and heartbeat to a minimum. In the quiet hall, they could also capture the sound in the listening tube.

"Thank you, Miss Lahualar." Ye Jielin placed a bank card from a golden bank and said, "There is one million holy coins in it. I think it will be enough for you to live for a while."

After exhaling, a look of gratitude appeared in Lahualar's eyes. She reached out and picked up the card. Just as she was about to say something, the back of her neck instantly became numb and her whole body trembled involuntarily. He could clearly hear the "click" sound reaching his ears, and then his eyes turned around. Only then did Lahua Lal realize that his neck was broken and his head fell on the table. His vision began to become blurry, and tears naturally fell from the corners of his eyes.

In his last glance, Lahualar only saw Ye Jielin shaking her head, as if sighing. At the same time, a man in a white dress walked back from the corner of her sight and stood next to several other people she did not recognize.
