Chapter 234 Start Of The Forty Million Bet
I looked at the scenery passing by the window in front of me.
I still can't believe I agreed to this...
The four of us were on the train moving towards their so-called Sex District of the station right now.
We weren't alone as Midori was apparently assigned to follow us. Both to make sure we were doing the bet properly and to ensure that we could 'struggle without repercussions', as Linc had put it.
I was more interested in the bodyguard herself though so I tried to strike up a conversation with her.
"So... Are you allowed to talk?" I asked.
The woman turned her head slightly, just enough so that she could see me out of the corner of her eye.
"Yes, I am allowed to talk."
"So... What's your relationship with Linc?"
"I am his personal bodyguard."
Amber gave her the same side eye, "A bodyguard who would drop to her knees and suck him off just like that?"
"Yes."
"And you were even disappointed that he didn't go any further?" Amber grinned.
I thought Amber was just teasing her but I actually noticed a slight twitch in the corner of Midori's eyes before she answered.
"That was not the case."
Amber didn't press her and simply smiled at me.
What? I don't get it? Why is she smiling at me? What was that supposed to mean?
I turned back to Midori, "How long have you been working for him?"
"... A long time."
"Err... Ok... Would he be safe if you're here and not with him?"
"Yes," She answered immediately.
I waited to see if she would explain but she remained silent after saying that.
I tried to probe a little, "So... How is he kept safe?"
"Secret," She answered bluntly, refusing to elaborate further.
The silence stretched on for a while.
"Not much of a talker..." Lea noted from the side.
I really wanted to point out the irony of that statement but decided not to.
Instead, I decided to confirm her role in our little outing.
"So what would you be doing while with us?"
"Watching. Protection."
"And if someone tries to rape us?"
"Nothing."
"If we punch someone in the face?"
I mean... Yes, but really? At least he looked like he was respecting our boundaries and wasn't pushing us... I was only expecting to use this privilege of ours on those who try to force themselves on us...
I heard a few gasps of surprise and I looked up to see several of the guests looking at us with fear and worry, most of them already retreating away from us and giving us a wide berth.
Even the ones who had been busy fucking each other had stopped and pulled out just to distance themselves from us.
Since I know about the penalty for normal people to use violence here, I also understood why they responded that way.
Peeking at Midori, she showed no reaction to the sight and simply remained where she was, almost as though she had expected something like that to happen.
Then, as though on cue, the sound of hurried footsteps echoed through the air and a group of angry looking security guys stormed towards us.
"You there! Did you just punch this guy?!" One of them asked in a not so friendly way.
Amber crossed her arms and smirked at the guard, "Yes I did. What are you going to do about it?"
"Don't you know the rules here?! If you commit violence here, you would be thrown out!"
"Oh, I know that~"
"Then you better come quietly with us and we can at least ensure you can leave this station in one piece. We will resort to force if necessary."
"Oh no~ Whatever will we do? Can I punch them too?"
"No," Midori answered immediately.
That drew the attention of the guards to her and they must have recognised her because they immediately stood up straight and saluted her.
"Mi... Miss Midori! Good day!!"

"Mmm," She nodded at them to return their greeting.
They then looked at Amber before looking back at her, probably wondering why she had not done anything to Amber despite her breaking one of the rules.
"Umm... Miss Midori? Should we... Kick her out?" The same guard asked.
"No."
"May I ask why?"
"Mister Linc's orders."
"Ah... Umm... Understood... Should we... Should we bring him to the medical centre?" He asked, pointing at the unconscious guy that was still on the floor.
"Yes."
"Un... Understood. Shall we leave now?"
"Yes."
The guard then gestured at the unconscious guy and two of them quickly ran up to carry him between them.
Once that guy was secured, the entire group quickly ran off, presumably to bring that guy to the medical centre.
Not gonna lie... I felt that interaction between the guards and Midori were a little eerie for some reason.
The others around us saw the exchange and were shooting us confused looks, clearly wondering why we were granted that privilege and wondering who we were.
Well, I guess these people wouldn't be approaching us anymore, so thanks, Amber!
Now I guess we just need to go find the nearest corner and stay there for the next four hours!
Come on girls, let's go win that forty million Credits bet~
