Before she could count to 2, Yu Xunge heard the sound of glass being hammered. She looked in the direction of the sound and found that it came from a transparent box near the ceiling.

Standing in the box was a light brown sea squirrel. It looked not much bigger than the Sun Chaser, but the furry tail behind it was almost twice the size of its body.

It was banging on the glass window anxiously.

"Aba Aba." I have to verify whether you are really looking for songs in Moonlight Wetland.

"Aba——!" I ask you, how many gold coins do you still owe your teacher?

The anxiety on the sea squirrel's face disappeared, turning into seriousness and solemnity. It raised its right paw and circled a "0" with its fingers.

What gold coins? When have I ever owed gold coins? Not at all!

Yu Xunge's eyes lit up immediately. Ignoring the Sun Chaser who jumped on top of her head and started jumping and stepping on her head, she pointed at the sea squirrel and said to the lady with black curly hair: "Aba Aba!" She is another me!

Bitter Cup: "Tsk."

……

The black cat finally took its eyes off the screen when it was tired of laughing. It looked at Zhuri and asked curiously, "Have you paid back the money you owed to Wailing?"

It was stunned at the end of its words, because it actually saw an emotion called melancholy on Zhuri's face.

Noticing that the black cat was looking at her, Zhuri's expression relaxed and she asked, "What did you say?"

"Oh... I say, have you paid back the money you owe to Howl?" Black Cat said again patiently.

Unexpectedly, this was met with a long silence from Zhuri. Her gaze fell on the apprentice's face on the screen, but her eyes were clearly drifting away.

It lasted so long that even the blood elf beside her couldn't help but turn around to look at her.

The black cat cautiously extended its paw and touched Zhuri: "Are you okay?"

"Hmm..." Zhuri came back to her senses, curled the corners of her mouth, revealing a self-deprecating smile, and said, "I just suddenly understood why my bills are getting longer and longer."

When she was still studying in Moonlight Wetlands, Wailing was extremely poor. Thieves earn a lot but spend a lot. What's more, Wailing's dream is to raise a dragon, but Wailing still spends most of the money he earns on her.

Buy her the best violin, the sharpest dagger, the best wolfskin boots, the best nutritional supplements...

Every year during the Winter Veil Festival, I would choose a main city to take her to visit.

The wailing at that time might have been because they saw her anxiety and guilt, and in order to prevent her from being bound and affected by these distracting thoughts, a bill was issued.

The bill was hanging in the living room, and they agreed to pay it back slowly after she graduated.

But after the last year of the God Game ended, interest was suddenly added to the bill.

In the long time that followed, whenever she was about to pay off the bill, she would find a reason to add to her wailing.

Sometimes it’s interest, sometimes it’s a sudden memory of an expense from a certain date in a certain month of a certain year that I forgot to record.

She thought the dwarf had gone mad from lack of money.

But it doesn't matter, she makes money just to pass the time.

For a strong person of her level, gold coins are like grass on the roadside, which can be obtained anytime.

She also wanted to see how many weird excuses Wailing could come up with...

But just now, when she saw the apprentice holding up the elf and asking her other self how much money they still owed the teacher, a thought suddenly flashed through her mind:

If the apprentice still remembers the bill after regaining his future memory and is able to come back to pay the money, will she be able to see her apprentice more often?

Did Wailing think the same thing? She already had so many gold coins that she couldn't spend them all, but the bill was still so long...

They have been waiting for the day when they can let go of each other. They both firmly believe that there will be such a day. This idea has supported them day after day, year after year.

But what should I do during the time before I let go? Should I pretend I didn't know him?
