It's tight. Rosie, can you hear me?
"Yes, very sensitive."
Ready? From now on, I'll contact the source, but I'll just mediate your words. You can negotiate any further. And I won't pay you back where you've been paid. "
"I know, that's fine. Gold is only a down payment, so I plan to pay separately for success rewards and expenses."
After school that day, me, Risha and Celia, plus Christina, who somehow arrived, met together.
The place is my room. Four people in one room will feel cramped, but it is about 10 tatami mats in size, including storage space, so it is not very dense.
Is that a rich school or something?
"Whatever the wilderness is talking about... Rosie, isn't your money a little strange?
Christina, who sat on my bed and put Lisa on her lap, said.
I wondered whether it was comfortable for others to warm up, and Risha was flattered with a face that no one could see.
"Sure, it might look like you're manipulating people with money."
"Maybe, but it doesn't look like it."
Gakun and Christina rushed to support the disoriented Lisa.
Risha, who didn't know what had happened, shook her head in agony.
"Christina, I trust you. You trust me, don't you? Then I need you to follow Gili now and find out where the source is. For free, of course. Because we trust each other, we don't have to thank or reward each other. Isn't that right?"
"... what is that?"
"Trust Selling"
After a moment of suspicion, Christina said, "Ah."
"I've been trying to use others unilaterally from the beginning, but I'm just reluctant to follow the word" trust ”in a formal way. I will pay the people I truly trust for the work they've done."
"True trust is a long way off."
"Fuah... no, Chris Hin. I don't know how to tell you how I feel when I'm done with Rosie...."
Reesha says whether she was attacked by a sleeping demon again or not.
"Hahn. So that's the price?"
I see, Christina looks at me with a smile. [M]
Reesha, do something extra.
"... Ohn. Gili, how are you?
Hold the ring and let the magic pass.
The reply came back immediately.
"Damn, I'm surprised. I didn't mean to, but I said I could talk."
"Yes, that's good. Well, check your right pocket, and there's a piece of paper that says what you want to hear."
"...... what? Whoa, seriously! How long have you been cooking?!
Saving time.
She invited Celia to her desk.
If it had been a telephone call from the previous life, I could have just switched the voice to a speaker.
However, this magic tool does not have such a function.
Though it may take a little trouble, I'll have to write the words one by one. [M]
"As always, you are."
Yeah?
Celia, sitting next to her, smiles.
"We are moving things forward on the premise that negotiations will be successful from the beginning. I mean, I was sure you could talk to the source."
Well...
Shrug your shoulders.
"Christina doesn't seem to like the way things show trust, but it has a proper meaning. Unlike people's minds, which are vague, it means“ easy to understand. "
"Easy to understand?
And then nodded to prepare the paper and pen.
"As you know, the ring I gave Gilli is very expensive. If you sell it out, you'll be able to live without working for years."
Celia snorts.
"I understand, it's really like you."
"... what do you mean?
In contrast to Celia, who had noticed earlier, Christina still seemed to have no idea what it meant.
When it comes to Risha, she is completely asleep and has no reaction.
Saliva made muscles from the edge of the half-opened mouth.
"I am naturally alert to sources who have been told that there are people who want to talk to you. Gili is right, there must be a lot of enemies in the informant."
"That's why they choose who sells the information and identify who they want to come into contact with. I know some of them, but they're all like that."
"Well, think about it, Christina. What do you care first when you try to meet a friend of yours?
Christina looks up at Celia's question.
"... I wonder how close they are."
"Yes, I'm a friend of a friend, but from my point of view, I'm someone else. The only way to measure others is how they relate to their friends."
"That's what it is. So far, you know what I meant when I gave Gilli that ring?
Christina sighs with her eyes closed.
As she raised her face with a groan, she stared at me with a gaze.
