My Bothersome Life 82 Strange People In The Second Distric

"Don't move if you don't want me to shoot!" The girl threatened the both of us.

The people around us started to run away in terror as they may potentially be the next target.

Seeing that we had no other option, Ben and I were blindfolded while being escorted to the warehoused by the couple.

"I knew the otome game scene couldn't be realistic," I muttered in complaint.

'Shut up Rika,' Ben mouthed when our blindfolds got removed and our wrists and ankles were tied up in its place.

"So you're all from the first district?" The boy jokingly asked.

We stayed silent to not aggravate the couple even further.

After a long moment of silence, I asked pitifully in a tone that they still had the chance to back out before getting the potential consequences of kidnapping people from the first district, "Why are you doing this?"

"Everyone knows that people from the first district are crazy rich!" The boy answered.

"Huh... So it's ok to kidnap people for no reason because they are supposedly rich?" I sarcastically replied with irritation.

'Stop provoking them,' Ben mouthed with concern.

"You!" The boy tried to hit me with a spare baseball bat that was inside the warehouse when he was suddenly stopped by the girl.

"We may not get the full ransom if you hurt them," The girl tried to reason with the boy.

The boy placed the bat on the floor and glared at me intensely before leaving the warehouse.

The girl soon left as well after she looked sure that we wouldn't be able to escape again.

I burned the ropes with mana and quickly untied the ropes on Sh.e.l.ly and Ben. "Hold Sh.e.l.ly." I whispered to Ben.

Ben tried to carry Sh.e.l.ly as he quietly whispered back, "I have a plan."

Instead of only carrying Sh.e.l.ly, he lifted me up with his mana to hold me in his other arm.

Without any warning, Ben sprinted to the small forest behind the warehouse after he softly opened the door as if it was a delicate object.

When it looked like we were a good distance away, Ben placed me back down as I found myself near the playground where Sh.e.l.ly and I got out of the teleportation gate.

Ben placed Sh.e.l.ly on the bench as he delivered the bad news, "The teleportation gate in the second district is out of energy. So we'll have to stay in the second district for a few days."

That meant we were inside the same district as the psychopath couple that kidnapped us for ransom. I sighed and Sh.e.l.ly started to stir awake on the bench leaning against Ben's shoulder.

"Sh.e.l.ly!" I said with excitement as I was filled with gratefulness that she able to wake up.

"Where are we?" Sh.e.l.ly murmured.

"The second district. We were able to get away from the crazy couple and Ben's here too." I filled Sh.e.l.ly on what happened.

Sh.e.l.ly looked up to see herself leaning on Ben. Her face flushed pink from shame as she promptly removed her head from Ben's shoulder, "I apologize for what has happened so far."

"It's fine. It was mostly Rika's fault to begin with anyways," Ben sleekly answered.

"So where are we going to stay now?" I asked trying to stay oblivious that Ben was very mad at me while he seemed like he was completely relaxed.

"There's a small hotel chain that my family owns in the second district. The nearest one is only minutes away." Ben replied.

"Your hand?" Ben asked me.

"Why?" I questioned.

"I'm just simply worried that you may step into trouble again," Ben eerily smiled with no amus.e.m.e.nt in his eyes.

Ben grabbed onto my hand as we were escorted to the entrance of the hotel glittering from the night lights of the city.

"Can I get a room for three people?" Ben requested the manager.

"Of course young master from the Nuelle family." The manager politely answered.

"Is Ben really from the Nuelle family?" Sh.e.l.ly whispered into my ear.

"You didn't know?" I whispered back.

"Yea, there's a formality we need to follow when we meet people of similar or upper status." Sh.e.l.ly explained.

We were led to the elevators and we soon arrived in front of the room. "Why did you only book us one room?"

"Who knows what else would happen during the time we're separated?" Ben answered with total distrust.

The room had alot of s.p.a.ce as there were two inner bedrooms as well as a central living room.

I sat down on the couch in the living room and flipped through some pamphlets targeted towards tourists visiting this city.

"How about we go to this aquarium tomorrow?" I asked Sh.e.l.ly.

"We're not going anywhere tomorrow. We're staying inside this room until the teleportation gate is charged enough to take us all back," Ben answered before Sh.e.l.ly could say anything.

"The Roselia and Monete families are scary," Ben quietly mumbled to himself.

"Come on Ben, we're stuck here anyways. It's best to go make the best of the situation and explore the second district?" I argued.

"And where did that end up getting you?" Ben questioned with his eyes narrowed.

"It's not like I wanted to get kidnapped!" I defended myself.

"Ummm. How did you guys get so close when we're in different grades?" Sh.e.l.ly asked while interrupting us.

"We met in the sixth district." Ben started to explain.
