Chapter 99: I Am the Boss You Said Would Sit in Prison

A forcibly twisted melon isn't sweet and doesn't quench thirst — that's the melon's problem, not the melon-eater's problem.

Right now, the Crystal Palace's prompt regarding Hill shows the other party's Happiness Value rising rapidly.

Clearly, this melon Hill is not only sweet, but also very thirst-quenching.

This directly made Broly, who had already returned to normal, feel regret.

How many Katsudon would that be? Listening to Big Bro's vexation over his own failure to repay kindness with enmity at the time, Luosang didn't know how to evaluate it for a moment.

Can't evaluate it, then I can only put on the Big Bro filter. Luosang entered chat-along mode: "This still has to be blamed on that guy lacking a grateful heart. If it were me, I'd definitely be grateful for Big Bro's help, and from now on become Big Bro's capable and virtuous helpmate..."

His words were a bit mushy. Before, Broly felt nothing hearing them, but now listening, for some reason, he found them a bit hard to adapt to.

"Luosang, how about you stop for a bit?"

"What's wrong, Big Bro?"

The little fatty was a bit confused; he was just getting to the exciting part.

"Your words gave me goosebumps all over."

"Want me to help you rub them off?"

"I'm going to find Akame and the others."

Broly jumped up from the bed and fled from this suite compartment as if escaping.

"Where's Big Bro?"

At this time Nahashu had also finished bathing. Seeing Luosang on the bed raising his hand aimed at the front door, he couldn't help but ask.

"Big Bro went to find Akame and the others."

Luosang answered.

"Then I'll run my bath water later."

After Broly left the room, he went directly to find Akame and the others, but the girls were just planning to go bathe together in the master bedroom's large bathroom.

"Broly-san, want to bathe with us? I can help you scrub your back."

Black Pupil had a bath towel wrapped around her body, change of clothes balanced on her head, and sincerely invited the boy.

"I can scrub my own back."

With a tail, Broly scrubbing his back is even simpler than for others, and doesn't need anyone's help.

Of course, if someone were willing to help him wash his body, he'd be quite happy about it too.

But looking at the other girls in the room, he subconsciously felt bathing together wouldn't be too good.

So, Broly declined Black Pupil's invitation.

The revival of part of his previous life's memories seemed to have given him a sense of distinction between men and women. Although this awareness wasn't very clear yet, Broly is the type to act according to his heart.

Suddenly feeling it's not good, then he won't do it.

Under Merad's somewhat pitying gaze, Broly directly jumped out the window.

Broly easily arrived at the roof, sitting cross-legged on the inn's roof.

Looking at the city below with its dazzling lights and bustling nightlife, he suddenly wanted to go find Hill.

Broly wanted to go apologize to the glasses girl, then tell her about his own desire to repay kindness with enmity, but having clearly already said to let her consider it herself, the result was he wanted to go find her to repay kindness with enmity before much time had passed — it felt a bit shameful.

Between shame and possibly losing food, Broly actually hesitated. The revived portion of memories had made him grow from a shameless toddler stage directly into a child stage that wants a bit of face, thereby producing some choice-paralysis symptoms. This symptom also made Broly feel some restlessness.

Just as Broly was restlessly wondering whether to go find Hill to repay kindness with enmity right now, the Crystal Palace's suddenly appearing prompt of Leone's Happiness Value rising shifted the attention of the somewhat restless him.

Hmph, Hill's side can be left alone for now, let her properly consider the matter of becoming a wife. Broly planned to go find Leone, see if he could continue raising that tomboy girl's Happiness Value — the one who always loses at Old Maid to him — and obtain her promise to be willing to become his wife.

Thinking thus, Broly closed his eyes and carefully perceived. The Imperial Capital's population is numerous, but he had already memorized the auras of the new capture targets acknowledged by the Crystal Palace. Now he only needed to distinguish his memorized auras from these complex ones to easily find people...

Ugh, okay, finding people is much harder than leveling this city, but Broly still distinguished the two memorized auras from the vast complex auras.

He took flight to the nearest aura, and from midair saw the glasses girl currently tidying a room for occupancy in a siheyuan courtyard.

Temporarily skipping her, Broly flew directly over, arriving above the Slums' Slum Street. From midair he saw Leone currently distributing things below.

When they parted, Broly and company gave Leone a large sum of money. With more surplus money, Leone spent money even more generously.

She bought a pile of discounted toiletry armor sets, then called the neighborhood neighbors out to receive them. In this fairly lively street distribution process, Leone boasted and shared her experience of how she coaxed the generous Boss into a good mood, thereby obtaining a large tip.

The reason for using "boast" to describe this experience-sharing behavior is mainly because the tomboy girl attributed the primary credit for obtaining the large tip to her own quick-wittedness, while encountering generous customers like Broly seemed like a secondary reason.

"That Boss of mine, he fundamentally doesn't understand playing cards. During Old Maid, his facial expression changes are simply like open cards. I feel any kid from our street playing Old Maid with him could easily make that Boss of mine sit in prison.

But the brilliance lies here: I not only didn't let that Boss go to prison, but personally went to resolve his predicament, and coaxed him into being happy happy. A rich Boss gets happy, and look — my guide fee today directly multiplied several times over.

You guys all learn well, remember well. If you ever have the chance to encounter this kind of generous Boss in the future, you must be quick-witted..."

While saying this, Leone distributed toiletry armor sets to the neighborhood neighbors.

"Next one, name, identity."

Leone bought many toiletry armor sets, all for distributing to neighborhood neighbors, but the quantity is limited. When distributing, she still has to record the recipients' identity information, to prevent greedy people from repeatedly claiming multiple portions and causing others to not get any.

"I'm called Broly, the Boss you said would directly sit in prison if you weren't there when he plays ghost cards."

Broly queued up to Leone's front, and said to the tomboy girl recording names with pen on paper.

Hearing the boy's words, Leone's body trembled, movements stiffening as she raised her head. Only after confirming the identity of the boy before her did she squeeze out a somewhat embarrassed smile.

Leone evaded the topic, ignoring Broly's words, and asked with some surprise: "Broly Little Boss, how did you come here?"
