Chapter 65
Artoria wanted to struggle free, but her strength wasn't particularly great to begin with. Plus, after severe blood loss—even though Ye Yu had treated her— her entire body still felt weak and powerless.
After a few futile attempts, she could only glare at him with an ugly expression.
"What are you going to do?"
She recalled Ye Yu's earlier words, and her body trembled involuntarily.
But Ye Yu no longer wanted to waste words with her.
If he could act, he would never talk!
Ye Yu pressed forward directly, pinning her petite body firmly beneath him…
…
"Do people have to keep their word? I never forced you!"
"You bastard, ah…"
…
While Ye Yu was immersed in Artoria's unique tenderness, Lazuli's subordinates had already mobilized.
At Ye Yu's home.
Nino kept watching videos on her phone, while Miku and Itsuki sipped tea.
Itsuki and Ichika held the review materials Ye Yu had given them, flipping through them constantly.
But the house seemed shrouded in a shadow—everyone's mood was suppressed.
While they were still worried about Ye Yu, a knock suddenly came from the door.
Ichika walked forward and peered through the peephole. She saw a man in a black suit.
But his burly build and vicious aura gave Ichika a bad premonition.
"Excuse me, what can I do for you?"
The man in black spoke in a deep voice.
"I'm from the neighborhood property management. There are some safety hazards in your house. Please open the door so we can inspect it!"
You're from property management?
With that murderous aura radiating from you, I'd believe you if you said you were an escaped murderer.
Since she handled all household matters, and she had met many people from the neighborhood property management, she had truly never seen this guy before.
Remembering Ye Yu saying she lacked vigilance, she directly refused.
"The homeowner isn't me, so please wait until he returns to handle this."
"No can do, miss. This issue is extremely serious right now. You must open the door and let us inspect!"
"Then have Manager Aoyama come here, and I'll open the door. Or have him call me. My name is Nakano Ichika—just tell him that!"
At this moment, Ichika could see the man outside growing extremely impatient.
Soon, several more men appeared beside him, mocking him.
"I told you to just pry the door open! You had to say you could trick them into coming out. Haha, your IQ is truly something!"
"This is quintuplets! Their looks are just perfect!"
Hearing their brazen words, the faces of Ichika and the others turned deathly pale.
They had actually run into real criminals?
Miku reacted fastest and immediately called the police.
Then Yotsuba quickly stepped forward and locked the door.
"Miss, if you come out of the house right now, I guarantee we won't touch you. I've seen your photos—if you don't cooperate… then today our brothers are truly blessed, haha!"
Lazuli's order was not to harm them. But playing a little game couldn't be called harm, right?
This was quintuplets! Forget seeing them—even hearing about them was rare!
"You guys better leave quickly! I've already called the police! Once they arrive, you're in big trouble!"
Miku shouted at them through the door.
But her words only made them laugh harder.
"Looks like you're not giving us face! Brothers—pry the door open!"
With that, one of the men pulled out a crowbar from somewhere. He jammed it straight into the door crack and began forcing it.
They weren't professional lockpickers, so they usually resorted to brute force. An ordinary door would be pried open in just two minutes with this method.
"What do we do? What should we do??" Itsuki trembled all over in fear, while Nino grabbed a kitchen knife, ready to fight them.
At that moment, the mocking laughter outside suddenly turned into miserable screams.
"Aaahhh!!"
"Don't come closer! Please don't come closer!!"
"Help! Help! There's a monster here!!"
Crunch… crunch…
Ichika looked through the peephole in shock and suspicion.
A massive, round creature had opened its mouth and swallowed one of the men whole.
Then it began a bloody chewing sound!
Ichika felt her stomach churn violently. She immediately ran to the bathroom.
Vomit!
Yotsuba quickly looked outside. The men from before had completely vanished.
Only a few small pools of blood remained on the ground.
"What happened? Why is there so much blood? Where did all those bad guys go?"
…
At this moment, Lazuli held an AK in her hands, two pistols and a grenade tucked at her waist. She wore a black bulletproof vest, her eyes extremely fierce as she stared at her own villa.
Behind her followed more than twenty fully armed men. To outsiders, it looked like she was leading some kind of operation.
Meanwhile, Ye Yu was still teaching Artoria the "rules."
There was simply too much she needed to learn!
This forced Ye Yu to spare no effort in helping her improve properly.
While the "lesson" inside the room proceeded in an orderly manner, Lazuli had already arrived at the door.
Unlike the intense battle she had imagined, Ye Yu showed no intention of stopping her.
Listening to the rhythmic sounds coming from inside, Lazuli's face became extremely dark.
She reached out her right hand to push the door open.
But strangely, this unlocked door felt like a solid wall—no matter how hard she pushed, it wouldn't budge!
What the hell??
Seeing this, one of her subordinates immediately stepped forward.
But no matter how they pushed—even when they started smashing it— the door showed no reaction.
Listening to the sounds of the adulterous couple inside, Lazuli directly raised her AK and opened fire on the door.
Rat-tat-tat…
Bullets poured out like they cost nothing, hammering the door.
But as expected, the room remained completely unaffected.
"Bastard!!"
Lazuli's eyes turned vicious as she looked at the rocket launcher one of her men was holding.
But then she reconsidered—if Ye Yu died directly like this, it would be far too easy for him!
While she hesitated between rage and calculation, Ye Yu's devilish voice suddenly sounded in her ear.
"Is this how you treat your master? You'll need proper discipline!"
Lazuli's heart jolted in shock. She turned her head but saw no sign of Ye Yu.
But in the next second, she watched one of her subordinates suddenly raise his gun and aim at another man.
Bang…
The gunshot rang out. Everyone froze at the sight of the bullet hole in the man's forehead.
"I-I don't know what happened!!!"
The shooter looked utterly confused as he stared at his dead teammate.
Bang, bang, bang…
The others seemed to go mad and opened fire on each other.
In a very short time, everyone except Lazuli collapsed into pools of blood.
Lazuli stared wide-eyed, looking at everything in disbelief.
She murmured:
"What the hell just happened…?"
At that moment, the door in front of her suddenly opened. A familiar voice came through.
"Do you know how I usually discipline disobedient dogs?"
