Chapter 80

"But she is still special."

"So before things are completely clear, I won't easily disrupt her life."

After hearing Silver Wolf's words,

Liuying's expression hesitated slightly.

But after a moment, she solidified her inner thoughts.

"Tch, boring."

"Do as you like."

Silver Wolf thought Liuying's idea was foolish,

so she smirked,

and said no more.

The video continued.

【Danger? Young Lady Liuying, this is the family's dream—how could there be danger? How can you seek excitement without it in a dream!】

【Come on, Star, prove to her that you can do it!】

Sangbo paid no mind,

and began urging Star.

Star's personality was inherently fearless.

Without hesitation,

she stepped straight into the pinball machine.

Then she adjusted the flippers along the route to the correct positions,

and launched the ball!

Biu! Biu! Biu!

Amid a rhythmic series of impacts,

the pinball machine successfully reached the opposite shore.

Then they all stepped out of the machine together.

And continued walking toward their destination.

【Is this... the lower level of the commercial district?】

On the way, Liuying looked around at the surroundings,

and couldn't help asking.

【That's right. Our destination is just ahead—"Pipi Pipixi's Salon"!】

Sangbo nodded.

【This salon isn't ordinary. Only Pipixi people or guests with a VIP card may enter.】

【Of course—nothing is beyond my, Sangbo's, reach.】

On the way, Sangbo subtly boasted about himself a few times.

Making Star and Liuying roll their eyes.

【Oh hey, bodyguard brother! We meet again.】

Sangbo brought the two to the entrance of a shop.

Then he began speaking with a Pipixi bodyguard at the door.

【Huh? Oh... it's you again? Back for more business?】

The bodyguard looked up at Sangbo.

【Yes, today I'd like to bring two friends to your esteemed place—do you still have space?】

Sangbo smiled broadly.

【How many?】 the Pipixi bodyguard asked, raising an eyebrow.

【Three.】 Sangbo answered promptly.

【Show me your VIP card.】

The Pipixi bodyguard nodded, then asked everyone for their VIP cards.

【Sure thing, let me show you!】

Sangbo immediately pulled out his VIP card.

【I mean your two friends'—I've already seen yours.】

The Pipixi bodyguard shook his head.

【Ah, well... my friends are newcomers—how could they possibly have VIP cards? Haha.】

【Just let me use mine as collateral—these two are absolutely trustworthy. I'll vouch for them with my own card!】

Sangbo laughed it off,

and began negotiating with the Pipixi bodyguard.

【That won't do—it would break the rules. If you lack certification, please leave.】

The Pipixi bodyguard's stance was firm.

【Looks like we can't get in.】 Liuying muttered under her breath.

【What do we do?】 Star looked at Sangbo.

【Don't worry, don't worry! Let old Sangbo think of a solution... oh, I've got it!】

【How about this, bodyguard brother—we won't go in. Could you fetch something for me? Something I left here earlier—】

【"The Moment of Betrayal," "The Shadow of Doubt," "Hatred Until Death"—tell Sister Lei Shou it's the "materials" prepared by the Joker, and she'll understand.】

Sang Bo thought for a moment,

He changed his approach to communicate with the bodyguard.

He rattled off a string of nonsense.

【"Clown"? What even is this stuff??】

Stelle listened to Sang Bo's riddles,

Her expression was strange.

【Hey, don't rush! Let Sang Bo drop a hint first!】

Sang Bo had no intention of answering yet.

【That's fine, I'll go tell her. You guys, wait here.】

Pipi Xi's bodyguard readily agreed,

Then entered the store to fetch things for Sang Bo.

March 7th: "The moment of choosing... betrayal?... The clouds of doubt? And unyielding hatred until death!"

March 7th: "What the hell are all these things?!"

March 7th: "Are these really things that conform to public morals and customs??"

Stelle: "I think not."

Stelle: "But I have no proof."

Xi'er: "Will the next scene be suitable for children to watch?"

Xi'er: "If not, I'll cover their eyes!"

Hook: "No! Hook wants to watch!"

Clara: "Hmm... Clara will pass on watching."

Sang Bo: "Don't worry, guys."

Sang Bo: "Although I don't know who this imposter is pretending to be me."

Sang Bo: "But based on my years of experience wandering the martial world,"

Sang Bo: "These items' names are probably just aliases—what's called a code word."

Stelle: "So the next scene isn't something inappropriate for children?"

Sang Bo: "It should be."

Stelle: "Pfft, boring. I was waiting for a big show."

Liuying: "Uh..."
