Chapter 2372 Confrontation

Seeing Barbara stretching out her arms and rolling up her sleeves, and seeing how ferocious she would slap me with her claws if she said something different, I felt a little numb.

With a slight cough, I explained: "I'm asking her for a favor."

"Is that so?" Barbara looked past me and fell directly on Little Lantern's face.

"That's not true!" Little Lantern said angrily, "He wants to drive me back!"

Isn’t this nonsense!

When did I say I would drive her back?

I just hope she can help contact her tribe!

Thinking of this, I hurriedly explained: "I didn't say I wanted to drive her away!"

A sharp pain came from behind me, causing me to scream in agony.

Barbara's eyes were wide-eyed, with a ferocious look on her face. Her left hand, which was originally soft, was as sharp as a steel claw at this moment, and reflected a faint light under the light.

There were still some blood stains on the skin at the tips of the nails. I knew without looking that there must be at least three bloody channels on the back.

I grinned in pain and thought to myself, when will Barbara change her impatience and stop taking action whenever she disagrees? If she deserves it, just scratch her paw, but if she listens to one-sided words, she will have to do it. How unfair it is to receive a paw!

At Susan's signal, Belle ran over quickly and performed a healing spell to heal the blood channels on my back.

In fact, these blood channels can be healed in just a few minutes without her doing anything. However, I understand the meaning of Susan's move. It is nothing more than trying to make the seriousness of the matter slightly greater. It seems that everyone knows that I was Barbara scratched her paw, and the scratch was so severe that Belle needed to use a healing technique to treat her. This pointed the finger at Barbara, letting her image of a villain be the first to be fixed in everyone's hearts.

Susan's little plan was pretty smooth, but she didn't know Barbara, let alone Phoenix and Cagalli. The reason why these three people were able to divide my harem into three factions was very reliable. It's not just about their beauty and popularity, but their respective personalities and talents.

There is no doubt that Cagalli, as the little princess of Dasha City and the de facto president of the Fearless Guild, has always shown herself as an overlord. Many times, she can remain calm when encountering difficult decisions. Analyze and draw conclusions quickly.

Her conclusion may not be the best, but it is certainly not the worst.

Phoenix usually seems quiet and speechless, she loves to cling to me, and when she talks, her voice is soft and soft, which is very comfortable to listen to, but she is the most difficult type to deal with among all the people.

Don't be fooled by her little girl appearance. Once she turns cold-blooded and sinister, she can be more ruthless than anyone else. She even threatened the lives of a strange duo and forced them to dig through the pile of monster corpses for loot.

As for Barbara, she grew up in a coffee shop. She is well-informed and knows the world of people very well. This little trick cannot sway her at all.

Therefore, Susan's move was in vain, but it still shocked Belle.

The little girl has never seen my naked back. When she was performing the healing technique, she happened to see my real body through the holes in my clothes. In addition to my straight body and strong muscles, there were more densely packed, A crisscross of scars.

These scars, which look like centipedes, are the trophies of my narrow escape from death time and time again, and they can be regarded as the glory of my career as an adventurer.

It's a pity that Belle couldn't accept this. After being cured, she was so frightened that she hurriedly slipped behind Susan.

"Short-breasted cat, why do you just do it?" Cagalli stepped behind me, folded her arms, stared at Barbara with an unhappy face, and said in a bad tone: "I don't even know what's going on. Son?"

"Cowgirl, don't think that I'm afraid of you because you're big!" Barbara showed her little fangs and faced off with Cagalli: "You heard what Little Lantern said just now, and Xiao Yi actually wanted to drive Little Lantern away! You can come to this family just when you say you want to come, and you can drive away when you say you want to leave! Since Little Lantern is already a member of the family, no one can drive her away as long as she doesn’t want to leave!"

As he spoke, he puffed out his chest in a domineering manner, raised his head and said, "I'm covering her!"

Cagalli raised her eyebrows and said: "Why don't you drive away? What nonsense are you talking about? I also heard a general conversation between Xiaoyi and her, but I didn't hear who Xiaoyi said he wanted to drive away! Are you? Didn’t you just listen to the little lantern’s words?”

"Yeah! What's wrong!" Barbara pinched her waist and said, "Little lanterns are a vulnerable group. Of course I have to listen to her more! Is there a problem with this?"

"This is a big problem!" Cagalli turned her head and gave Yura a look.

Yura coughed slightly, stepped forward, stood between the two of them, and said: "Let's calm down, everyone, let's ask what happened to the little lantern first. If I really want what you said, Xiaoyi must rush After Little Lantern leaves, how about we punish Xiao Yi by sleeping in the storage room for a week?"

Barbara snorted coldly, obviously not intending to accept Yula's persuasion.

At this moment, there was a crisp sound, and everyone looked around to see Phoenix holding a hand of broken sawdust, and said Nunuo: "Oh, this building block is so brittle."

"Okay, okay" Barbara's face changed slightly, and she reluctantly said, "Since you said so, then I'll just listen to the little lantern's grievances first."

After that, she quickly came to the little lantern and asked her to repeat the conversation between me and her in front of everyone. During this period, she strictly prohibited me from interrupting. At the same time, she also ordered me to turn around and not face each other. Little lantern, beware of me threatening her with my eyes.

Feeling aggrieved, I had to turn my back to the little lantern. As a result, the hideous scars all over my back frightened even this simple mermaid girl.

Then my situation became even worse. I was ordered to squat in the bathroom and was not allowed to come out until the questioning was over.

After squatting in the bathroom for about half an hour, Billy knocked on the door and called me out with a little regret. Judging from the disappointed expression on his face, it was probably the little lantern that repeated our conversation exactly and gave it up. Barbara punished my thoughts.

Sure enough, after I came out, Barbara crossed her arms with a arrogant expression and hummed: "You, can't you make it simpler and easier to understand! I made the little lantern think you were going to drive her away. !Hmph, don’t do this again next time!”

After saying that, she returned to the sofa, sat down, and continued to play with the things she had just left unfinished.

Little Lantern is no longer as nervous and excited as before. Obviously, she has figured out what I mean.

I approached her and instead of blaming her, I asked, "Are you feeling better?"

She nodded, looking apologetic, and said, "I'm sorry."

"I'm the one who should be sorry." I scratched my head and said guiltily, "It's my fault that I didn't explain it clearly."

The little lantern raised his head sheepishly and glanced at me, his face flushed. As for me, after this startling glance, I was attracted by the shy expression of the little lantern.

Click!

There was another soft sound.

Then, Phoenix's Nuonuo murmur came: "Eh? This building block is so brittle."

I was horrified and quickly stopped my thoughts and got down to business.
