Chapter 140: Leo, should I just take cash?No one had the guts to ask her how she got them there. They didn’t want to anger her so they just went ahead with it.
Of course, those treasures and artifacts could not be taken just because of their surface value. They had them appraised and Alice had to wait.
She was patient, though she was a bit worried that Micheal would be
He just wanted to get on her good side already.
"I’ll be right back. How would you like to be paid? In cash or cheque?" He asked and she thought for a moment.
’Leo, should I just take cash?’ she asked.
*I think that’s the best for now.* He said. *If you take a cheque, they could find your location.*
’But I thought they tend to keep a customer’s personal life out of their business.’ she said.
*Well, there’s no harm in being extra cautious." He said and she sighed.
’Do you think they’ll have cash in trillions?’
*If they didn’t, do you think they would ask?* He asked and she nodded.
’Good point.’
She faced the manager and asked,
"So... What do you I address you as?"
"Ah, just call me Vector. I am at your service." He said and she observed him carefully. He definitely didn’t look like a ’Vector’. If he said his name was Bob, she would believe him right away.
But oh well, this fat mess of a body was his disguise so she wouldn’t judge.
"So, Vector. Do you have cash over a trillion? I don’t think anyone has that habit besides me?" She said. "I like keeping cash, a lot of it, you see. Just looking at it makes me extremely happy."
*Says the girl who was so obsessed with a packet of cash.* Leo reminded her of her dark past.
’Seems like you and I will have a little chitchat later.’
*Not if I’m offline.*
"Ah, that’s nice to hear." Vector said. "Well, then may I invite you to the safe? It’s just, there might be a problem moving the money."
"Please, I’m a magician." Alice said. "How do you think I got all these things here?" She asked. "Oh, and don’t ask me how. After all, a magician," she reached her hand towards his ear and suddenly pulled out a sword from behind, smirking. "...never reveals her secrets." She said and the attendant started clapping.
They all turned to him and he stopped at once, pursing his lips as he felt awkward.
"Well, I don’t know how you do it but it looks convenient." He said. "Now, follow me."
After passing through a lot of security details, body scans, and the likes in procedures, they got to the vault that had the exact amount they wanted to pay her.
It has a security camera inside so if she wanted to take it all inside her ring, she would have to blind the cameras.
"You know, I just said I didn’t want to reveal my secret. So, kill it." She said to him and he nodded.
"Oh, I understand." He made a call right away and the cameras were cut off.
The beeping red light went off and the camera dropped as if it were dead while hanging on the wall.
Even if they secretly turned it on, it would not be able to catch anything since it was facing down in the wrong direction.
Alice got all the cash in her ring and took in the nice scent of cash and gold.
It was wonderful.
’You should build a safe in the space while you’re free, Leo.’ Alice said as she walked out.
*Oh, as if making me a babysitter wasn’t enough. Now, you want me to renovate?* He asked with an irritated tone but she shrugged.
’This is all you can do to assist me right now. After all, I’m the one saving the world.’ she smiled.
*Alice, looks like we really do need to have that chitchat.*
’Ah, now you know.’
Vector stopped her just before he stepped out, and she thought he still had something to say, but he handed her an invitation and a card that said VIP.
"Please, do visit us again, Miss Black." He said and she tilted her head.
"Well, why not?" She tucked it inside her jacket. She was about to leave when she paused. "Oh, what happens if I lose the card?" She asked. "I was brought in by someone this time. And next time if I want to come into the devil’s shrine but lose my invite, I won’t be able to step in, right?"
"If that happens, you can show them your VIP card. But if you lose that too, for some unforeseen circumstances, please just call the number I gave you. We will come to escort you personally." He said and she nodded.
"Nice, I’m leaving now." She waved and as she left, Vector thought out loud,
"I feel she became different all of a sudden. More approachable." He muttered. "Or was it just me feeling pressured for no reason?"
He decided to let it go. This time, he bagged a big client. He couldn’t wait for the owner to come back. He would break the news to him personally.
