Evening.
Li Andy licked his lips, savoring the memory while waiting for Sophia to return.
But it wasn't until sunset that the carriage stopped in front of the church, half an hour later than usual.
Sophia pushed the door open and jumped out, her hair disheveled and a corner of her clothes slightly torn.
"Did you get into a fight?" Li Andy frowned and stepped forward to check her.
Hands, feet, arms, legs… no problems. She was only a little dusty, most of her skin was fair and tender, and the old scars had mostly disappeared.
What about under her skirt?
Li Andy bent down and reached out.
"I'm not hurt!"
Sophia's face flushed as she bit her lip, pressing down on her skirt to stop his concern. "Those guys couldn't beat me!"
Li Andy shook his head with a hint of regret.
Right. This girl was already the bully of the orphanage; those pampered girls at the academy were indeed no match for her.
As long as she wasn't targeted by those strange things, she could pretty much walk around unchallenged.
"Tell me, what exactly happened?" Li Andy asked after seeing the carriage off.
Sophia bit her lower lip. "I... I didn't cause trouble on purpose! You can't deduct my money! Those people were too childish. I was just passing by, and I inexplicably got dragged into it. I could beat them, but another person was much worse off, and I... couldn't help her."
"Another person? Who?"
Li Andy's heart sank.
Could it be Meilin? With her personality...
Sophia thought for a moment:
"She seems to be called... Windsor."
"Huh?" Li Andy was stunned.
That bully girl?
How did she get bullied?
"Oh, right!"
Sophia suddenly remembered something and said excitedly, "I saw the oddity! Those human bronze sculptures you told me to look out for really moved on their own! The time... was one o'clock in the afternoon."
Li Andy was startled for a moment, then nodded.
Good, he finally found it.
...
...
The next day.
Li Andy and Sophia went to the academy together.
Before getting out of the car, Sophia hesitated and asked:
"Andy, do you feel that Youxi has become a bit... strange?"
"Uh... being a bit strange is fine too."
Li Andy licked his lips somewhat awkwardly.
That girl was getting more and more skilled, and she liked to do it precisely when Sophia wasn't looking. He wondered if she had awakened some kind of fetish.
"Cough, cough, hurry up and go. Remember, keep a low profile."
"But what if others provoke me?" Sophia frowned.
"If you want to fight, fight back. Just don't kill them, and I won't deduct your money."
Only then did Sophia nod in satisfaction, jumped out of the car with her hands behind her back, and walked into the academy with a somewhat arrogant swagger.
Li Andy closed his eyes and transferred his soul to another carriage not far away.
"You're here?"
Madam Harveys smiled as she watched her "daughter" wake up.
Li Andy slowly got up:
"Good morning, Madam."
Madam Harveys frowned slightly:
"At this time, you should call me Mother."
Li Andy was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"Mmm, good morning, Mom."
Madam Harveys smiled again, sat beside him, and held his hand, saying:
"I have good news for you. I've exposed the scandals of the chairman and his wife of the Golden Mountain Mine Company, both of whom cheated on each other. Now, everyone outside is saying that their children might not even be their own, and I guess they're in a huge mess right now."
"Golden Mountain Mine?"
Li Andy raised an eyebrow.
It seemed to be the industry of that bully girl, Windsor's parents.
So, she was bullied in return because she lost her backing, and everyone turned against her once she fell? Was she subjected to collective revenge?
"Molly..." Madam Harveys gently caressed Andy's face, a hint of ferocity flashing in her eyes. "Those who bullied you, Mother will definitely make them pay!"
Li Andy opened his mouth, suddenly wanting to remind the Madam not to get too deep into the role.
Her daughter hadn't truly woken up.
Li Andy swallowed:
"Madam, I'll be leaving now. Everything will be over soon."
"Mmm, see you tonight~"
Harveys seemed not to hear the hint in his words, maintaining that kind and eerie smile.
"..."
Forget it, he should just get things done first.
Li Andy got out of the car and merged into the crowd.
...
...
Li Andy was routinely patrolling the teaching building.
Passing a high-floor restroom, he heard a commotion.
He thought for a moment and walked over.
The others scattered immediately upon seeing her.
Only a disheveled girl, soaking wet and slumped on the floor, remained.
The other party slowly raised her head, revealing a swollen face. Upon seeing Li Andy, her previously hollow eyes instantly sharpened, staring straight at him:
"Are you here to humiliate me too?"
"I just happened to pass by. I have no interest in kicking someone when they're down." Li Andy crossed his arms and leaned against a nearby door.
"Heh..."
Windsor let out a cold laugh, her eyes full of hatred.
"You should be happy. All of this is because of you! I know you're not Molly at all!"
Li Andy narrowed his eyes slightly:
"Oh? What else do you know?"
"Heh..."
Windsor didn't answer, laughing coldly as she swayed to her feet, then slowly retreated towards the windowsill.
Li Andy frowned, Mad Blood surged rapidly, and he rushed forward.
Unfortunately, he was a second too late.
With a scornful smile, Windsor leaned back and fell from the windowsill!
Andy reached the window and looked down.
She hit the ground with a "splat," her fragile limbs splaying out, blooming into a vibrant red flower.
And at the center of the pistil, a mechanical heart twitched slightly.
"Ahhh!!"
Several girls downstairs collapsed to the ground, screaming in terror.
One of them shakily pointed at the tall building, pointing at Li Andy in the window:
"M-murderer!!"
