Shortly before Russell brought Arthur and others into the tavern.
Another corner of the pub.
Monroe swirled his glass drunkenly.
"At a time like this, wine is the way to go~! Ahaha, burp~, ahahaha..."
"This guy is like this every time he gets drunk. It's really unbearable to watch."
Lor said with a look of disgust, then glanced at Luggie.
"Hey, stinky dog, you absolutely can't pay for him this time!"
Lu Ji put down his glass and replied calmly:
"Even if you didn't tell me, I wouldn't do that."
Lor stared at him for a few seconds before looking away.
"... ...Yeah?"
Bang!
A tray with wine glasses was placed heavily on their table.
"Hey~, wine, the wine is coming, hehe~."
Monroe grinned and reached for his glass.
Bang!
But it was easily slapped away by the smiling poster girl.
“… …”
Bang!
“… …”
Bang!
Monroe finally regained consciousness and asked with a somewhat stiff smile:
"Um... what does this mean?"
"It's nothing~."
The poster girl replied with a smile.
"It's just that you drank a little too much, so I want to ask-"
Bang!
The poster girl slammed her right hand on the table, and her smiling face turned into a ferocious one.
"You bastard got the money to pay the bill, huh—?"
"Alas!?"
Monroe shuddered, his drunkenness instantly dissipating.
"This, this..."
"This? What this and that?"
Click! Click!
The poster girl clenched her fists, and her knuckles kept making crisp sounds.
"Are you planning to default on your debt again?"
Monroe couldn't help but shiver, and quickly looked at the others for help.
As a result, Luggie and Lor simply ignored it.
He could only look to his last hope, Amen.
Yamen said with some embarrassment:
"I'm sorry, Brother Monroe. I've been scolded many times by Hulim for lending you money. To be honest, I've almost lost face as a brother... So..."
Yamen clasped his hands together.
"Sorry! I really can't lend you money this time!"
"No way? Even Yamen..."
Monroe suddenly felt like the sky had fallen and was petrified on the spot.
His face darkened.
"In that case..."
call!
He dove for a glass of wine on the tray.
"—Even if I die, I'll drink to my heart's content!"
Bang!
The next second, the poster girl slapped his head onto the table.
"This bastard, I'm really going to kill you."
"Gu, damn, it was almost there!"
“That, that…”
Yamen looked at the scene helplessly, and hesitated again.
"That won't do!"
Lor saw his hesitation and gave him a serious warning.
"Don't be fooled by this guy's tricks."
"What's this trick? It's really bad. My head is going to be crushed by her. Help me!"
"Look—"
Lor said expressionlessly,
"Still quite energetic, isn't it?"
Lu Ji also nodded silently.
The two were completely indifferent to Monroe's condition.
"Ah, really? Brother Monroe, are you pretending?"
“How is this possible—!?”
"Oh, this is bad. I'm dying, dying, dying—!"
A few minutes later.
Monroe lay half dead on the ground.
Brush, brush, brush.
The poster girl wrote furiously, finished a receipt in a few seconds, and then slapped Monroe in the face.
"Wha...what is this?"
Monroe tore off the receipt stuck to his face and said in confusion.
"Haha~, it's not a big deal, just an IOU~."
"Promissory note?"
Monroe read the contents carefully, and soon he said in shock:
"...Wait, why is there interest? What? Three percent interest per month?! Are you kidding me—"
Click! Click!
The poster girl clenched her fists and said with a smile:
"Are you dissatisfied with something~?"
"...No, not really."
"If you don't want to, why not just pay off the balance before next month's deadline? After all, the interest is calculated starting from the second month. Ah, now that I think about it, I'm really kind~."
"...Yes, you are so kind!"
"Haha, as I expected, you think so too. Sometimes it's really hard to be too kind. Anyway... Mr. Monroe—"
The poster leaned over to Monroe's ear and whispered in a threatening tone:
"Be sure to remember the deadline next month~."
“… …”
After that, the hostess left in a hurry to greet the six new guests.
Monroe sat in his seat, looking at the IOU in his hand, his expression slightly complicated.
"It's great to be alive again."
Lor said lightly.
Monroe's mouth twitched suddenly.
... ...These guys actually watched someone die without helping!
"I'm telling you guys, this is how you treat your——"
"Brother Monroe..."
