“Because everyone else was completely drunk, but I was still relatively clear-headed, and on top of that, the other day that succubus pushed all the blame for what she did onto me, which made me a bit angry, I decided to ask that Informant Master called Valfis if she had any information related to succubi. I wanted to investigate on my own first.”
Rita walked behind Cecilia, speaking seriously about her thoughts and feelings.
“As a result, Valfis told me there was a brothel in the city where a succubus might be hiding, so I decided to take my chances. Since I had no evidence, of course I had to pose as a customer to gather intel!”
Of course, these ‘thoughts’ were fabricated—Rita had just made them up after last night’s experience, shooting the arrow first and then drawing the target.
After all, Cecilia wouldn’t call Valfis out for a confrontation, so Rita could say whatever she wanted.
“And then? Did you find anything?”
“Well…”
Passing through a rarely frequented alley, Rita successfully arrived at the brothel named Orange Night.
“Miss, do you have a reservation?”
The reverse bunny girl attendant at the door greeted Rita immediately with a friendly but not overly flattering smile, her soft, sweet voice like swallowing an entire milk mochi.
In every sense, it was full of creamy sweetness.
Compared to the other’s outfit, Rita felt her cloak looked a bit shabby, and combined with her first-time nervousness, she stammered, “Ah… no, I don’t.”
They actually required reservations! Damn Valfis for recommending this kind of place!
But the bunny girl didn’t mind Rita’s attire or stammering at all. “Then, is this your first time here?”
“Yeah, I guess so.” Rita lowered her head embarrassedly, feeling even more self-conscious when taking in the sight of the reverse bunny girl.
“The entry fee is only five gold coins. Would you like to come in and take a look?” The bunny girl gave a smile as if to purify the darkness in Rita’s heart.
So dazzling! How could someone dressed so modestly flash such a radiant smile?
There was absolutely no way to refuse!
“No, no problem.” Rita pulled out five gold coins and forced herself to suppress the indecent urge to stuff them directly between the bunny girl’s treasure box, handing them into her palm instead.
“Well then, let me give you a tour~” The bunny girl’s smile grew even brighter, wrapping Rita’s arm between her two little bunny breasts and pressed against her as they walked inside.
“This is the front desk. Here, you need to receive the symbol of the customer.” The bunny girl took a hand chain glowing with magical energy from the Front Desk Catgirl and helped Rita put it on her wrist.
“As long as you have this hand chain, you can freely roam the hall. You can enjoy the performances, food and drinks, our bathing area, and the public booths. If you upgrade your membership level, there are even more perks.”
On the stage, a dancer was performing a seductive dance; on the sofas nearby, beautiful girls were snuggling together.
More bunny girls carrying food trays weaved through the crowd.
The bunny girl introduced all this to Rita while showing her around.
“Although these things are free, using rooms, purchasing better drinks, or special services will cost extra. Our staff wear anklets, so if you’re interested in anyone, feel free to take them away. We have transparent pricing, but a little tip is always appreciated.”
The bunny girl shook her little foot, and the tiny bell on her anklet jingled: “Oh, and if it’s your first time, you can try our Special Massage. No matter where, we’ll help you relax properly.”
A-amazing! This is totally different from the black market!
Sorry, Valfis, I misunderstood you just now—you really are my good sister!
“This is the start of the guest room area. You’ve walked so far and must be tired. Want to book a room to rest your feet?”
The bunny girl stopped near the guest room area and winked at Rita.
Although her intention was extremely obvious, it still gave Rita a very strong impulse to go with her for a little feast in the small room.
However, in the guest room area, a strange scent caused the somewhat dazed Rita to immediately sober up.
The girls’ perfume, incense in the corridor, and some indescribable smells mixed together, but the particular scent made Rita feel incredibly clear-headed.
This is… my own scent?
No, not my scent, just a similar aura emanating nearby.
It was the faint pink seductive aura.
As a succubus, Rita couldn’t possibly mistake it.
The presence of this aura here made the implications obvious.
Still eating? The hidden enemy has appeared!
“Thanks for your hard work. I want to look around on my own, is that okay?” Rita said, pulling out five gold coins again and handing them directly to the bunny girl.
The bunny girl pouted, showing a reluctant expression: “Miss, if you need me, remember to call me.”
After sending the bunny girl away, Rita began following the scent along the corridor.
The hallway was well soundproofed, but from slightly ajar doors came occasional blush-inducing noises that sounded like nothing but noise to Rita’s now focused ears.
Halfway down the corridor, Rita lifted her nose and sniffed again, confirming the scent’s source was the room ahead.
She pressed her ear against the door, trying to catch any sounds inside.
The result was complete silence.
Despite all the lewd noises outside, Rita was certain this room was dead silent.
Not giving up, she pressed her ear once more, and the door creaked open slightly.
No lock?
Rita quickly stood up and hid beside the door, waiting for a while but no one came out to check.
Yet the scent pouring out from inside grew even stronger.
Looking back, Rita’s next move was very reckless, but she did it instinctively.
She carefully pushed the door open and slipped inside sideways, wanting to see what was happening.
Luckily, no one saw her enter.
But this didn’t mean the room was empty.
On the contrary,
There were three people in the room.
One lay on the bed sideways, one knelt face down on the floor, and the last lay face up collapsed on the table.
All three were unconscious, but from the scattered clothes and marks on the bed, it was obvious what had happened here.
Rita only needed one glance to see that these three were all victims.
Going through three at once—truly enviable… ahem, truly outrageous!
However…
Rita noticed the small charms on their bodies and frowned.
The girl lying on the bed wore an anklet on her ankle, confirming her identity as a staff member.
But the other two wore hand chains identical to Rita’s on their wrists.
Rita recounted everything she had discovered in detail, concluding, “I fled as soon as I sensed something was wrong, so there should be at least three victims—two customers and one brothel girl.”
