Trafford’s Trading Club

"Are you awake?"

It was Charlotte's voice.

When Lucifer woke up, he found that the place he was in was a tent. The air smelled of earth and grass, and there were a few men's clothes placed in the corner of the tent.

Lucifer quickly judged that this tent belonged to the lumberjack she saw before she fell unconscious. As for the reason why Sharti appeared here, it was not difficult to deduce.

Originally, she couldn't walk far in her injured state after falling down the hillside. It's not surprising that Sharti searched all the way and finally found her.

At least he met a good person, and Lucifer couldn't help but laugh at himself. Of course, as a nun in the monastery, if she wasn't a good person, she probably wouldn't be able to cover the coffin boards of the Virgin Mary.

Lucifer didn't speak after waking up. He just looked at Sharti sideways. There was no doubt that it was difficult for her to do anything in her current state.

Even the idea of ​​sending a message to Charlotte and asking her to send someone to meet him was a bit dangerous. If only the demons who had succumbed to her power knew that the Queen of Hell had become like this...

Those guys would probably be very interested in discussing ways to eat themselves.

Taking a step back, even if Charlotte's protection can save her from the threats of more demons who will follow their own instincts, Lucifer will not choose to go back at this time because of her pride. Don't allow yourself to appear in this posture.

"I heard from Mr. Eminem that your name is Lucy, right? He said that your family lives in the village in front of you?" Charti looked at Lucifer with a puzzled face at this time.

Eminem, I guess that's the name of the lumberjack.

Lucifer nodded subconsciously, and when she was about to speak, her head suddenly felt like it was about to split. She quickly shook her head.

You cannot lie, let alone admit lies. But it doesn't mean that she can't get out of this predicament. As long as she denies the lies she has told and remains silent afterwards, she can cope well with the 'punishment' that is imposed on herself, like a curse.

Or, using ambiguous rhetoric can also effectively avoid the launch of this 'punishment'.

Lucifer almost nodded, then quickly shook her head. She planned to remain silent in response to all of Sharti's questions. As for how to communicate, it was naturally left to this young nanny to worry about.

Anyway, such a pure-hearted nun would have enough patience and tolerance to tolerate an uncooperative child... Lucifer thought so.

"Isn't it? Then what was your original name? Where do you live?" Sharti asked curiously again.

Lucifer still shook her head, and was considering whether it would be more convenient to pretend to be an amnesiac child, but her head suddenly began to hurt like it was exploding.

How could this happen... Facing a question, if you don't answer it, it's not lying.

But why is the ‘punishment’ still launched?

Could it be that... Lucifer suddenly opened her eyes wide, showing an expression of shock and anger because she thought of a terrible thing.

The conditions for the activation of this 'Punishment of Lies' curse are most likely not as simple as just lying, but another more complex command.

For example.

[You must answer the other party’s questions with the truth].

It's not a lie, the answer...two activation conditions that exist at the same time!

"Damn it, you're so harsh!" Lucifer gritted his teeth: "I didn't participate in the siege a hundred years ago! This is unfair!"

"Siege? Fair? What are you talking about?" Sharti was confused: "What were you talking about just now?"

"Don't ask, you don't know even if I tell you." Lucifer stared at Sharti coldly, and at the same time his palms were sweating because she didn't know about the 'punishment' on her body. In addition to the conditions she had inferred, there were other No more additional conditions.

Fortunately, such an answer did not seem to trigger the initiation of ‘punishment’.

Lucifer couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief... That's weird!

The damn headache invaded her head again, giving her the urge to smash her head in!

[You must answer the other party’s questions head-on with the truth]!

"How are you, kid?"

Lucifer's painful look suddenly made Charti panic. She hugged Lucifer into her arms at a loss. Mother Delan said that hugs can give people hope and strength.

"Listen... I will only say this once..." Lucifer said weakly at this time: "I am the queen of hell, Lucifer. The so-called siege a hundred years ago was an attack on a magical store. I took the lead. Most of them are descendants of the gods from Western Europe!”

"What?" Charlotte blinked.

She let go of Lucifer a little, then lowered her forehead, pressed it against Lucifer's, and said to herself, "You don't have a fever?"

Lucifer suddenly wanted to find something to destroy, but she estimated that in her current state, she could only ravage the weeds on the grass outside.

"Anyway, your name is Lucifer, right?"

Lucifer nodded, feeling hopeless.

"How did you get to the monastery?" Charlotte continued to ask.

Lucifer said: "It fell from the sky, I didn't expect it to fall into the monastery."

"The collar around your neck?" Sharti blinked again.

Lucifer said: "This should be what confines my power. I encountered an extremely powerful opponent and lost to the opponent."

Charti suddenly sighed, looked at Lucifer with caring eyes, then shook her head and said, "My child, take a rest first, and I'll bring you something to eat."

"Wait, what I said is true..." Seeing that Sharti had walked out of the tent, Lucifer finally swallowed his words... He was desperate.

…

"Is the child awake?"

Outside the tent, the lumberjack Amu lit a fire and was cooking a pot of broth using the simple utensils he brought with him. For loggers like Eminem, they have to stay for several days after going into the forest to cut down trees, so it is not surprising that they carry kitchen utensils with them.

"I'm awake." Sharti sighed: "But I don't know if he touched his head. I always feel that this child is a little strange."

Sharti briefly stated what she heard in the tent. After hearing this, the lumberjack Eminem opened his mouth in shock, and then laughed loudly and said: "My children sometimes say that they are supermen. Children at this age are more fanciful."

"That's true, but if you can't find out where she lives, it won't be easy to deal with." Sharti said worriedly.

Eminem is older, probably in his forties. Because he has children at home, he seems to have some experience in this area. At this time, he comforted Sharti and said, "It's okay. I heard you say that you found this child What happened at that time, she was afraid that something terrible had happened before, otherwise she would have been collared. Oh, I really don’t know what this child has experienced before, poor child... Maybe, she said These words are just to protect yourself.”

"I hope so." Sharti nodded.

Uncle Amu said: "However, if you want to send her to the village, I'm afraid you won't be able to do so in the short term."

Charlotte said in astonishment: "Why?"

Uncle Amu said: "Isn't there a severe storm yesterday? There was a landslide on the road out of the village, and it's impassable now."

"How could..." Sharti was stunned.

At this time, Uncle Eminem suddenly looked at the position of the tent behind Sharti and shouted in surprise: "Child, kid!"

Charti quickly turned around, only to see Lucifer's small figure running quickly towards the forest. The sky was already dark, and the figure was suddenly out of sight.

"Oops, wild beasts will appear in the woods at night!" Uncle Eminem suddenly panicked.

Without saying a word, he picked up an ax and chased after him. Charlotte also picked up her skirt and followed him all the way.

…

…

Kata Club.

The city-wide blackout also affected this wealthy people's gold-selling den, so the security guard in front of the club seemed a little listless at this time.

When Arnold and Corolla arrived in front of the Kata Club, they could see a little light coming from inside, but the surroundings were still mainly black. It was probably due to the power supply of the small generator started in the club.

"How are we going to get in?" Arnold grabbed Caroline in front of the club door, fearing that she would go up directly like she did at the White Hell bar earlier.

Obviously, a place like Kata Club, a place for rich people to enjoy themselves, was completely incomparable with that kind of unfashionable bar. He was afraid that Caroline would be kicked out directly.

Caroline suddenly looked towards Arnold and said suddenly: "Can't you go in?"

Arnold was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "How could I enter a place like this? The cost is too high."

Caroline also shook her head: "Who said you were allowed to go in and spend money? I mean, let you walk in swaggeringly. You have forgotten that when you were in front of the bar just now, that guy just regarded you as a pirate. profit."

As she said that, Caroline took off Arnold's glasses, and at the same time reached out to fiddle with Arnold's nerdy hair, "Well, looking at it this way, he still has the potential to be a duck."

"But I..." Arnold hurriedly wanted to say something.

But Caroline had already pushed his shoulders and walked towards the door of Kata Club, "Since Haili has a job there, people here must know him, and maybe we can find out who Haili is. His whereabouts are gone. Maybe, Haili may be in the club now."

"But I...I really don't know how!" Arnold was trying to figure out something in a panic.

However, at this time, the security guard in front of the Kata Club had obviously noticed two sneaky people approaching, and walked over directly with a flashlight, "What do you two do? This place is closed today and is not open for business." , let’s go…oh, it’s Hailey.”

With the light source behind their backs, the two of them couldn't clearly see the appearance of the security guard, but it was obvious that the other party had seen it clearly... After hearing what the security guard said, Arnold could only sigh, then glared at Caroline, and hesitated. Di responded: "Well...it's me."

The security guard walked over quickly and turned on the flashlight at the same time. "Hailey, you have been somewhere for the past month and you haven't come to work. The supervisor told me that if you don't show up next week, I will take you away." The cupboards have been cleaned.”

"I...have something to do recently and I went back to my hometown." Arnold turned his face away as much as possible, as if he didn't dare to look at the security guard.

The security guard was stunned for a moment, then looked at Caroline and asked curiously: "Who is this young lady?"

"She...she is..."

Caroline said calmly: "I am his employer. I heard that this place is quite fun. I asked him to bring me here. I didn't expect... is it really closed?"

Upon hearing this, the security guard showed a tacit smile towards Arnold, and then said politely: "Yes, Miss, there is a power outage today, so we can't do business. No, even the air conditioner in the security booth can't be turned on, and I feel hot." I broke out in a sweat."

"That's such a pity." Caroline shook her head with a look of disgust on her face: "It seems like this place isn't that good either."

The security guard didn't say that it was their aim not to offend customers.

In fact, this very pretty girl is nothing compared to some of the old, lustful and bad-tempered middle-aged women in this club.

"Sorry, sorry." The security guard smiled playfully.

Caroline suddenly said at this time: "Hailey, since the door is closed, go in quickly and get your things back. Let's drive to enjoy the breeze later. I want to go for a run on Loaf Mountain."

"Get... get something?" Arnold almost bit Caroline's ear, "I don't have anything to get?"

"Take it if you want... take a look at what's in the cabinet, you might be able to find clues!" Caroline lowered her voice.

The way the two of them were biting their ears looked to the security guard like an intimate game between lovers, so he didn't pay attention to the fact that the pretty boys in Kata Club were all very good at pleasing women.

"But...but I don't have the key at all, how can I get it..." Arnold couldn't help but feel bitter.

Unexpectedly, Caroline suddenly shouted at this time: "What! You actually forgot to take the key? Are you an idiot? I came here with you, but it didn't work. You didn't bring the key?" I have so much money to support you, why not raise a male dog!"

Seeing this woman slapping Arnold with the bag in her hand, the security guard sighed secretly... Although these cowherds were well fed and well clothed, they were for women after all, so there was really no way to tell. What's the difference from a male dog?

"It doesn't matter. There is a backup key in the security room. Let me open it for you." The security guard said quickly at this time: "Don't hurt your harmony over these trivial things."

"Then why don't you go quickly? What are you doing standing there like a log?" At this time, Calorie slapped Arnold's shoulder with his bag, looking like a completely unruly daughter.

"Hailey, come on. Don't waste your time." The security guard grabbed Arnold's arm and walked into the Kata Club.

"Go ahead, I'll wait for you here, come out quickly!"

Caroline's voice came from behind.

The security guard gave Arnold a pitiful look and sighed: "Brother, you were right before. It's really hard to be in your line of work."

"Ha...ha, really..." Arnold smiled and looked back at Caroline.

This woman, at this moment, quietly made an OK gesture towards him, with a proud look on her face.
