"Patch, aren't you going to say anything?"

Facing Remi's death stare filled with resentment, Patchouli turned her head away awkwardly.

"I am also a victim."

"Didn't you provide this contract? And you ran away right after providing it. Are you the kind of person who would be the victim?"

Remi slammed the table and jumped up. If she hadn't been concerned that this wasn't the Scarlet Devil Mansion, she probably would have pounced on it and scratched it.

We've been friends for so many years, I trusted you so much, and this is how you repay me?!

All night long! All night long!

Do you know how I got through this whole night!!!

When Remi thought of Sakuya's horrific soul-sucking, her face couldn't help but twitch, and her face looked extremely pale for a moment.

"I only provided the contract, but the specific contents were written by Sakuya, so I don't know."

"By the time you signed, I had already been sold here. I couldn't run away."

Patch shook the back of her hand unhappily and said, "Who could have thought that Sakuya would be so cruel and cruel!"

However, Remi still looked completely unconvinced. Just now you were drinking hot porridge and reading a book, looking like you were on vacation. You are kidding me!

But until Patchy tried her best to walk a distance away from the grocery store as if to demonstrate, the chains that appeared from the void instantly pulled her back.

"Hey, did you see it?"

"..."

Seeing this scene, Remi fell silent.

It seems like this head maid at home can no longer be kept. Her methods are a bit scary...

"I'm curious how you got out."

"I took advantage of Sakuya being fast asleep after the incident and ran away. To prevent being caught, I also stuffed Fran in there."

Remi said with a dark face.

It's clearly my own home, but I still have to act sneakily. How can I live like this?

"At least you've escaped, you can just rest here for a while."

"Would you like some breakfast?"

"want!"

Remi responded with a humming sound, took the bun handed to her by Patchy, glanced around, and then lay down on the rocking chair beside her.

"Is this that bastard's shop? It has quite a lot of things going on."

"What about others?"

"On a business trip... maybe?"

Thinking back to the exciting scene she saw last night, Patchy's pretty face couldn't help but turn red.

"what?"

Remi couldn't help but raise her brows at Patch's uncertain tone.

But she didn't care too much. After taking a bite of the bun, she suddenly collapsed in comfort.

It feels so good to be alive...

Just as she was enjoying this moment of peace, Lin Yan and Marisa on the other side finally finished repairing the house and rushed to the Scarlet Devil Mansion.

But along the way, Marisa kept a distance from him as if she was guarding against a wolf, with a look of vigilance and tension on her face.

Lin Yan rolled his eyes at the guy in annoyance.

It was clearly her who took the initiative last night, so I can't blame it all on myself.

He actually had the audacity to complain that it wasn't good enough and demanded higher sensitivity. I had never heard of such a request in my life.

Marisa also noticed his subtle gaze, and like a wild cat with its fur standing on end, she almost couldn't help but pounce on him and fight him to the death.

But when he considered his own personal safety, he had to curb his impulse.

Forbearance a moment, calm, take a step back, a brighter future.

Once I learn the self-defense magic from Pachi, it will be time for reckoning!

As the two of them were thinking about their own things, the gate of the Scarlet Devil Mansion gradually appeared before their eyes.

Hong Meiling's "corpse" was still guarding the gate, with several sharp knives nailed to her hat.

His body was drooping, and his clothes were stained with shocking ketchup, making him look like a murder scene.

"Why do I feel like this isn't a serious place?"

"Is there some murderer hiding in here?"

Looking at this creepy scene, Marisa couldn't help but shrink behind Lin Yan.

"Don't overthink it. I was just caught slacking off. It's the same fate as if you were cheating on me."

"This is almost the same!"

Marisa's face twitched. She would rather switch with this guy. Getting stabbed was better than being trained into a weird state!

Ignoring the noisy guy, Lin Yan walked straight forward and knocked on the door.

"Ms. Sakuya, are you there?"

"I'm here to get Patchouli's clothes!"

Not long after the shouting, the door was quickly opened.

However, what caught their eyes was Sakuya's equally disheveled figure.

They looked at each other, and the words they were about to say were swallowed back. The scene seemed a little weird for a moment.

In the end, it was Lin Yan who broke the silence first——

"Is Remi...still alive?"

"He ran away. I just searched the whole house, but I didn't see any trace of him."

"Is it possible that he went to look for Patch?"

"Maybe. Wait a moment. I'll go get some clothes and then I'll go over with you to take a look."

"sorry to bother you."

After watching Sakuya turn around and go back to the house, Lin Yan grabbed Marisa who was trying to walk around a few times.

"You stay here quietly and don't try to run around."

"Tsk."

Marisa curled her lips and looked at the luxurious furnishings in the Scarlet Devil Mansion with longing.

This kind of mysterious building is simply the best place for adventure, and you might even find some hidden treasures!

When I have time, I must come and sightsee!

Sakuya didn't make the two wait too long. She soon packed everything and appeared in front of them with a suitcase.

"Let's go. Missy hasn't left the house since she moved in. It would be bad if she got lost by accident."

"The one at the door..."

"It's okay. When she wakes up, she will go back to the house to find food."

"That's fine."

As the three of them set off one after another until they were far away from the Scarlet Devil Mansion, the corpse at the gate woke up almost instantly.

After shaking off the knife from her hat, Hong Meiling happily returned to her room and slept in openly.

Sakuya, who was already on the road, couldn't help but look at Lin Yan's disheveled appearance with curiosity.

"You're not going to... Patch..."

"Don't get carried away, I was just helping this guy renovate his house and accidentally made it look like this."

Lin Yan patted Marisa, who looked indignant, and explained.

If Sakuya hadn't been there, she would have pounced on it and taken a couple of bites.

Sakuya heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this. She almost thought that this guy had tricked Patch into bed after only bringing her home for one day.

Sure enough, after accidentally smoking too much from the young lady, my thoughts became a little strange.

I have to bring him back quickly to replenish his energy, otherwise I will have no motivation for the whole day.

Oh yeah, I can also check on how Patchy is doing. If she's doing well, I can pick her up later...

37. Remi: I’m here now

"Let me tell you, I was once the reigning Night King."

"I'm tired of the fighting and killing in the martial arts world, so I came here to live in seclusion. In order to avoid being too conspicuous, I even used secret methods to change my appearance."

"Do I look much friendlier now?"

"When I strike with all my might, you'll know how majestic my true stance is."

The childish voice echoed in the grocery store.

Remi's petite figure was slumped in the rocking chair, boasting about her past like a hermit.

I licked the popsicles that Patchy threw to me from time to time, and I felt extremely comfortable.

The comfort of not having to worry about Sakuya's soul being sucked away and that certain bastard jumping around in front of her made her want to stay here forever and never go back.

Apart from anything else, the popsicles here are delicious!

After licking it a few times, she took out a few chips from the bag of potato chips in Cheng's hand.

I was so busy running around yesterday that I almost forgot that Sakuya also bought a lot of snacks to take back. I can enjoy them when the time comes.

Seeing this guy enjoying himself so much, Patchouli couldn't help but roll her eyes. Just as she was about to continue studying magic, the chain pattern on the back of her hand suddenly lit up without warning.

Patchy's eyes narrowed, and just as she was about to remind Remi, the red light went out again.

Why does this thing sometimes work and sometimes not...

Patch scratched her face, hesitated for a moment, and still said nothing.

Anyway, if something really goes wrong, it will only be Remi who is in trouble, so it should be fine if I just stay here honestly.

Just as she turned to the next page, a lively greeting suddenly floated in from outside the store.

"Yohoo~ Patch, we're back."

"We picked some mushrooms and brought them back. We can make mushroom soup for lunch."

The moment she heard the noise, Remi in the house seemed to be stressed and immediately ran to the back room without looking back.

But before she could take a few steps, a pair of hands lifted her up in the air.

"Miss, why are you running?"

The moment the questioning voice sounded faintly from behind her, Remi broke out in a cold sweat.

She had never thought her maid could be so terrifying...

Turning her head stiffly, looking at Sakuya's cold face, Remi suddenly revealed an awkward smile.

"I was just taking a casual walk... I didn't expect you to catch up with me, Sakuya."

"Oh? That's a coincidence."

Listening to Sakuya's emotionless voice, Remi was completely frightened and signaled to Patch at the counter with a crazy look.

Help!!!

However, Patchy ignored her pleading look and silently took the suitcase full of clothes from Lin Yan.

I can finally change into my own pajamas. Otherwise, it would feel weird to wear them every day.

After her eyes swept over Marisa calmly, she said "Go change clothes" and hurried to the back room.
