Rudy glared at Angelica and used telepathy to connect with her. 'What the fuck are you watching?! Since when did anime become so bold to show this stuff?!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Angelica averted her gaze and turned up the volume even more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'You bitch! So you are doing this on purpose!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rudy had forgotten that Angelica always liked when Rudy was in trouble. And now she took advantage of the situation and played a suitable anime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uhh…\" Rudy turned off the television using his electrokinesis and said, \"Oh. Why did it turn off all of a sudden?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He used the 'play-dumb' card.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He smirked at Angelica and said, \"Maybe we are experiencing a power outage again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, no. What should we do?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't worry. Some appliances would still work. It's a problem with the voltage, and this television seems to be taking a load on the power,\" Rudy stated calmly without looking suspicious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, I see. Does this happen regularly here?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not so often, but sometimes, yeah.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Putting all that aside, how was your relationship with Paul?\" he asked in an emotionless voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rudy wanted to ask this question to Lucy in his past life too, but he was afraid to know the truth. But this time, everything was different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucy furrowed her brows in annoyance and asked, \"Why do you want to know?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Judging by her reaction, she sure doesn't like Paul.'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I was just curious. Joe had said that Paul is missing, so I was wondering if you are worried about him.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Please say no!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course not. Why would I worry about him?\" Lucy made a disgusted face and said, \"I don't care where he is, and even if he dies, I won't shed a tear.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Holy fuck! Her answer was better than I expected!'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rudy couldn't hide his excitement after learning Lucy's thoughts on Paul. However, he was curious as to why Lucy hated Paul.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you don't mind, can I ask why you hate him?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Father already told you what type of disgrace he is. Do I need to tell you more?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rudy clenched his fists and asked, \"Did he… ever try to do… anything to you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>'Paul was a.. is a piece of shit. And if he had even touched Lucy, I would—'\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rudy had never been as relieved before after hearing Lucy's response.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I spent most of my time with my mother, and after my parents split up, it was only father and me in the apartment. I would often go to mom's house on weekends too. But I always had my guard up whenever Paul was in the apartment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was out most of the time anyway and returned at night when dad was around. When dad was on business trips, I lived at my friend's house, so it was never a big deal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, there was one night when…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucy paused and bit her lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rudy furrowed his brows and asked, \"What happened?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Dad had something urgent to do, so he was doing a night shift at the office. I was sleeping in my room and suddenly heard moaning and screams from the living room. I opened the door a little and peeked to see Paul had brought four of his friends.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had called prostitutes and were having sex openly in the living room. I immediately closed and locked the door, but one of Paul's friends noticed it and started banging on my door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The others also joined him and asked me to come out. I didn't reply and hid under the blanket. They kept passing nasty remarks, and Paul never stopped them. I called my dad immediately and told him everything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He came home with the cops and got everyone kicked out of the house.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She stated in a calm voice but finished the last sentence with a sigh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As long as you are okay.\" Rudy finally sat up on the couch and asked, \"By the way, do you know the names of Paul's friends?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No… why would I know that…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rudy placed his hand on Lucy's shoulder and said, \"Joe said Paul is missing, so I wondered if they would know where he is.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucy shook her head and muttered, \"I still remember their faces, but I don't know their names.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well, that's fine.\" Rudy changed the topic and asked, \"How much time for dinner?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am making chicken curry and a few other side dishes. So it can take up to an hour at the least,\" Lucy responded and glanced at the kitchen to check if the stove was still on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, okay.\" Rudy got up from the couch and said, \"I have something to do, so I will excuse myself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you going out again?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucy bit her lips and asked, \"Can't you go after eating dinner? I am making so many dishes for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmm?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And your mom,\" she shortly added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will be back before dinner. Just going to walk around the town and… maybe buy something for dinner tonight?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I have already bought everything.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay. Then I will be back soon.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucy puffed her cheeks and said, \"If you don't return by the time of dinner, I am never making you breakfast, lunch, or dinner again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rudy left the house, and Angelica came rushing after him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Where are you going?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I am just going to clean some trash. You can stay here if you want as I won't take that long.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You are going to hunt Paul's friends?\" Angelica asked to confirm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yeah.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But you know nothing about them, so how will you find them?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I touched Lucy when I asked her about Paul's friends. It was to read her mind and know their faces,\" Rudy calmly responded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Uhh…\" Angelica hopped in front of Rudy and asked, \"And… how will you know their name by their faces? Forget that. How will you get their addresses?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Did you forget about my ability to interfere with the signals? I can hack into any database and find out everything I want.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In fact, I already found them,\" he said with a proud look on his face.\u003C\u002Fp>",1045,"2026-06-06T12:42:09.049Z",1,"novelbin.me","cea716668a8d3af18b3dce5e91d7eb89f8a105f0ad7caf226f7496cdccafdae5","esper-harem-in-the-apocalypse-chapter-408","esper-harem-in-the-apocalypse-chapter-406",1163,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fesper-harem-in-the-apocalypse-cover.jpg"]
