The warden who guards the witches

Three days ago, on the night when Aiden just received the threatening letter from the Red Shark Pirates, Aiden sat with the witches again in Abigail's summoning space and held a business meeting.

"The money has been received. I have counted it and it is consistent with the account." Abigail nodded to Aiden, "Do you want me to send you a receipt?"

"No need. What legal effect can the receipt of the witch gathering have? Can I send you a subpoena when there is a debt dispute?" Aiden couldn't help laughing, "I will find a way to handle the financial and other procedures. You just need to confirm that the accounts with me for this quarter have been settled. As for how to divide the money, it is your internal matter. How are the raw materials for next month being prepared?"

"Only 70% of the progress has been completed. The puppets are already rushing to work overnight, but your huge demand is not something my small workshop can catch up with." Vera complained.

"I'll give you the funds for rebuilding the venue to make the dolls first. Anyway, this year's gathering is destined to be shelved." Abigail said, "Although you are the one who gets the lion's share of the money."

"That's great. We only get 10% each." Habinis made an envious voice.

"You just helped deliver the goods. Be content with 10%." Lamia replied.

"What do you mean just delivering the goods? I flew over the checkpoints to help you smuggle the materials. If you have the ability, you can do it yourself?" Habinis was unconvinced and started arguing with the other party.

While the witch started chatting, Aiden also talked to Kikimora: "Ms. Kikimora, are you free to come to my place tomorrow?"

He didn't have the means to contact Kikimora directly, and could only contact her through Abigail's summons. This business meeting was actually convened by him and Abigail. His real purpose was to contact Kikimora to come to the prison during the meeting.

"Hmm? What, did you miss something last time?" Qiqimola didn't immediately notice Aiden's intention.

"No, I want to talk to you about 'that thing' that you specifically mentioned to me last time." Aiden emphasized the word "that thing".

"Huh? Ah..." Qiqimola hesitated for a while before understanding, "Are you going to... give a response?"

Last time, she mentioned the matter of trading divinity to Aiden. In fact, she didn't expect the other party to take it to heart. Aiden mentioned it to her so quickly that she couldn't react for a while.

"Yes, it's better to wait for you to come and talk about it face to face." Aiden said in a serious tone.

"Okay, then..." Qiqimola nodded lightly, and just as he was about to reply, he found that the other people in the meeting had quieted down and stared at the two of them.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

After a moment, Abigail broke the silence first: "What are you talking about?"

"Uh... just a little private matter." Qiqimora replied vaguely, "Anyway, it has nothing to do with the gathering. Abigail, you won't even care about my privacy, right?"

The matter of her and Aiden trading divinity naturally has nothing to do with the witch gathering. Qiqimora doesn't want them to know about it. If Aiden is going to propose conditions that other witches can also meet, they may also get involved.

"I really won't care about this..." Abigail replied hesitantly. The witch gathering itself is an extremely loose organization. As long as it does not harm the interests of the organization itself, she naturally has no right to criticize the private interpersonal exchanges of members, so she did not ask in depth.

The remaining three witches exchanged glances with each other, and they all read full surprise in each other's eyes.

Listening to this, why do I feel that these two people seem to... have a relationship for no reason?

No one dared to speak again, just listened to their continued conversation.

"Then, when is the best time for me to visit?" After hearing Abigail's response, Kikimora assured Aiden to confirm the details of the meeting.

"The sooner the better." Aiden answered without hesitation, "If possible, I hope you can come as soon as possible. To be honest, I can't wait any longer."

The Red Shark Pirates may come to rob the prison at any time, and Aiden can only make countermeasures as soon as possible. If Kikimora has not arrived at the Rose Iron Prison when the pirates start to act, it will be too late, so he can only urge him.

But these words instantly focused the attention of the witches on him.

"Okay, then I will leave as soon as possible... I should be able to arrive tomorrow morning." Kikimora agreed without hesitation.

The witches looked at Kikimora again.

"That's good." Aiden suddenly remembered something halfway through his words, "By the way, if possible, can you bring some clothes to change?"

"Why?" Kikimora asked casually.

"I hope you can stay here for a few days. Is that convenient?" Aiden said calmly.

At this time, Aiden had only received a threatening letter from the Red Shark Pirates and had not yet had direct contact with the pirates. Although it can be predicted that the pirates will take action soon after he made a direct and tough response, the specific time of the jailbreak is still uncertain.

In order to be prepared for jailbreaks at all times, Aiden can only temporarily let Chichimora live in prison for a while. With Chichimora's ability, it is easy for him to live here without being discovered by others.

The witches looked at Aiden together and subconsciously held their breath.

Habinis could not help but whispered: "Fuck..."

Then, Qiqimora also gave a light answer: "Okay, no problem."

The big witches "swish" and focused their eyes on Qiqimora again, and Habinis and Vera almost popped their eyes out.

"Then I will wait here quietly, and I will leave first." Having completed the purpose of attending this meeting, Aiden decisively "went offline", "Goodbye, ladies."

"Goodbye." Qiqimora waved her hand and began to think about what conditions the other party would offer.

From beginning to end, she and Aiden were just thinking about the transaction seriously, and did not realize that the psychological activities of other people who were listening around were much richer than them.

After Aiden's figure disappeared, the scene immediately fell into a dead silence.

After a while, Qiqimora came back to her senses and found that her companions were looking at her.

"What's wrong, no one is talking." Qiqimora looked back and forth at them.

"Qiqimora..." Vera said hesitantly.

"You wouldn't..." Habinis continued.

"... like this type?" Lamia asked in a hoarse voice.

"What?" Kikimora didn't understand for a moment.

"Anyway... congratulations first." Abigail managed to stay calm.

"Did you have some strange misunderstanding?!" Kikimora was a little dumbfounded.
