She Does Pay Well

And back then, Ms. Maria was happy to see Lappland attack her... In her words, the clash of weapons was also a form of communication.

"Then why?"

Maria looked puzzled.

But Texas also looked conflicted.

She really wanted to tell Maria what had happened to them back then.

But she also knew that some things couldn't be explained simply by talking.

A few words simply cannot explain the complex relationships between these people.

This kind of thing can only be explained when Maria recalls it herself.

So she could only sigh.

"I'm sorry... Ms. Maria..."

"... Okay, I understand."

Seeing Texas's expression, Maria knew that the other party probably wouldn't explain anything to her.

But her expression didn't show any sign of distress.

After observing quietly for a while, he silently shook his head.

She's gone.

"Have they left?"

Stepping out of Maria's arms, Texas looked at Lappland, who had already left the outside world, and couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

Fine...

Thankfully, it was just an accident; Lappland is gone.

Otherwise, she really wouldn't know what to do.

Meanwhile, the waitress who had been waiting for a long time was watching them with a subtle expression.

After seeing the two finally separate, she hesitated for a long time before finally mustering up the courage to speak slowly.

"Um... while I don't mind, but... gentlemen, this is a dessert shop, isn't it...?"

"... I see."

Upon hearing the other party's words, Texas's face also turned blood red.

However, she couldn't easily explain to the other person that she didn't actually have that many thoughts, so after hesitating for a while, she silently nodded, which was considered an admission that the two of them had some special relationship.

Maria, standing to the side, did not refute anything.

Although Texas knew that Maria had made this choice to cooperate with her, seeing that Maria did not object still made her heart race.

But it's only temporary.

A moment later, they followed the waiter back into the private room.

After settling the two people in, the waiter respectfully stepped back and returned to the cashier to continue lying down.

But she hadn't rested for very long.

The white-haired woman led in a strange man named Lupo who was wearing black sunglasses and a white mask.

"Hmm... I can smell it, her scent is very strong!"

The white-haired woman, who looked dangerous, let out a sound like a wild beast.

But what she said made the waitress's face turn black.

Can you smell it?

While Lupo can indeed be considered a close relative of wolves, isn't it a bit too strange that he could smell something?

Or is this the norm in Lungmen?

The waiter was thinking to himself, while the woman who seemed to be accompanying the white-haired Lupo also showed a hint of surprise at this moment.

Are you sure she's here?

"Certainly..."

Lappland confidently stands with her hands on her hips.

She might not be able to smell other people's scent, but she could detect Maria's...

She could never forget the scent of that one and only woman!

Without a doubt, what he was smelling at that moment was the scent of Maria!

Although she had promised Texas she wouldn't meet with Ms. Maria for the time being, well... if they happened to run into each other, she couldn't say much, could she?

After all, that's Lady Maria!

You Texas can secretly meet and chat with her, even enjoy her touch, so why can't I, Lappland, do the same?!

You've been secretly eating by yourself for so long, what's wrong with letting me have a taste?

With this in mind, she didn't entirely keep her promise to Texas, but followed the scent all the way to the shop.

Confident in her intuition, she was absolutely certain that Ms. Maria was right here!

She is right here... in this house...

"A dessert shop?"

With a strange tilt of her head, Lappland looked at the bizarre rock-and-roll dessert shop decor and tilted her head as well.

Lady Maria...

Would you like a place like this?

Chapter 122 She really gave a lot

Lappland didn't know what Maria looked like in Texas's eyes.

But she knew exactly how Maria was in her eyes.

That woman... she possessed an elegance that few could understand, a calm and composed demeanor, yet she was incredibly kind.

She is powerful and sharp, but she constantly limits herself.

She's different from others...

She was unlike anyone she had met in Siracusa.

In Siracusa, people live by the rules, but she is the one who walks outside the rules and sets the rules for Siracusa.

Lappland will never forget the night she first met Maria.

That day, the woman stood atop a crowd of family members, her back to the moonlight, gazing at herself.

That elegant and mysterious demeanor captivated Lappland's heart with just a glance.

From that moment on, she knew she had an ultimate goal in life!

She wanted this woman to be her partner!

She began to study diligently... Although it seemed crazy, she actually knew just as much as the average scholar.

Such sacrifices were simply her way of hoping that one day she could stand beside Maria, fight alongside her, and learn more about this mysterious and elegant woman.

She also knew that Texas, being a kindred spirit with similarities to herself, must also harbor such feelings.

She wasn't angry about this; on the contrary, she was excited and thrilled that she and her friend shared the same goal.

You like her, and I like her too! Aren't we comrades-in-arms?!

That's why she was so disappointed that Texas hadn't told her she'd met Ms. Maria.

But none of that matters anymore.

In her opinion, Texas still doesn't know enough about herself.

How could she possibly do something strange the moment she saw Lady Maria?

At most, we can spend more time with Ms. Maria while she hasn't regained her memory.

After all, she had always been quite curious about just how good Maria's figure was...

And today, as always, she wanders through Lungmen searching for Maria.

But today was different; she found it empty.

If I remember correctly, this guy seems to have some interest in Texas.

However, Lappland didn't know much about Kong, only that he was a fairly famous idol.

But in Lappland's eyes, it wasn't all that great.

After all, every Siracusa should have only one idol!

That is the moon over Siracusa, Lady Maria!

I, Lappland, will prove to Texas that I am Lady Maria's only follower!

Of course, these are not the main points.

The key point is that since the other party is nearby, it means Texas is nearby too!

The fact that Texas is nearby means...

Lady Maria must be here!

"Hello..."

Without paying much attention to anything else, Lappland turned to look at the waiter in front of her.

"Did you see the moon coming from this side?"

"Moon... the moon?"

The waitress's expression became unusually subtle. She hesitated for a moment, then turned to look at Kong beside her, her strange gaze seemingly asking how long he had been sick.

But Kong didn't answer. He just stood silently to the side, took out his communicator, frantically typed a message, and then raised his hand to show it to the other person.

After glancing at it briefly, the waitress nodded silently.

"Well, we do have guests... four in total, but they're all in a private room. I'm sorry, we don't have their information..."

The waitress hesitated.

She roughly understood who these two people were looking for.

However, out of professional ethics and for the sake of the store's business, she couldn't reveal customers' information.

Even faster, Kong slammed the entire roll of Lungmen Credits onto the table!

The crisp sound made the waitress instantly realize that the money had just been withdrawn from Lungmen Bank!

A whole volume...

That's 10,000 Lungmen Credits!

For these women who work odd jobs, this is roughly a month's salary.

"This... guest, isn't this inappropriate?"

The waitress was somewhat tempted, but still looked hesitant.

Trading the risk of being fired for a month's salary... that's not really worth it.

Even faster, Sora immediately produced ten identical rolls of Lungmen Credits!

The azure blue Lungmen Credits left the waitress beside her completely stunned.

She stared wide-eyed at the empty space before her, seemingly surprised that this young woman could produce so much money...

I counted them; there are eleven volumes in total.

That means 110,000 Lungmen Credits!

This is already her salary for a year!

Even if I get fired the day after I agree, it's still a huge win!
