Chapter 624: Chapter 618: Can you afford to play?

“Sir, I think there might be some misunderstanding.” The man standing opposite didn’t even think before speaking up, not wanting to risk his life here.

“Is that so?”

“Indeed. Since you are interested in this woman, let’s consider her a gift to you.” He knew that Finn Lewis was unlikely to detonate this grenade here, but it was better to be safe than sorry. There were too many desperados on the Death Star, and even more outrageous incidents had occurred countless times.

“Let’s go.” After speaking, the man didn’t give Finn a chance to respond. He gestured to his men and prepared to leave. His henchmen hesitated for a moment, then put away their weapons and began to drag up their still-living companion from the ground, following the man towards the exit.

“Wait.” Finn called out instantly.

“What else do you want?” The man turned around, his face looking somewhat unsightly.

“I heard earlier that this woman owes you money. I don’t know how much, but I generally don’t like to take things from others without giving something in return. Dunn Monty, give him 1000.” Finn said with a tilt of his head. Dunn immediately put away his weapon and walked over.

Upon hearing the figure Finn mentioned, the man’s face instantly darkened. Was this an insult? A spark of rage flashed across his face. If it wasn’t for the object Finn was still clutching in his hand, he would probably open fire without any hesitation.

But his hostility faded when Dunn Monty took out a stack of money. When Finn mentioned the sum of 1000, he had assumed it was in black coins, but to his surprise, Dunn Monty was holding star credits, the purchasing power of which on the Death Star was beyond doubt.

Though the official exchange rate was 1:200, no one used this rate. The black-market rate was even double, sometimes more. It could reach up to 1:500 because many people had a lot of black coins but couldn’t get star credits.

Star credits could be used to buy many special products unavailable on the regular market. When he saw that the other party had offered a thousand star credits, the man realized his mistake. But what surprised him was that Finn, who was dressed like a primitive local, was so affluent. Even his clothes seemed to be made of old-fashioned fabric.

Sure, such clothes existed, but only the lowest slaves on the Death Star wore them. Even a poor common man would wear clothes made from plant synthetic materials, which not only provided warmth but also blocked some of the harmful radiation from the stars and cosmic space, adjusted body temperature, and offered better protection against accidental injuries than these old-fashioned textiles.

And let’s not talk about the clothes worn by the elites of society. But Finn, dressed so modestly, was apparently quite wealthy.

After eyeing Finn suspiciously, the man hesitated for a moment then said, “Since you are so generous, let’s consider our dispute settled. And the woman’s debt to us is also cleared.”

After speaking, the man immediately led his group away, leaving behind the woman, who had just managed to get up, and the man who had fallen dead on the ground.

Having glanced at the corpse, Finn felt a bitter smile creeping onto his face. The matter was settled, but a man had died. Just like that, lying there; even if he was a scumbag, life was held in such low regard. But the societal order had persisted here for tens of thousands of years and was beyond Finn’s ability to change. Shaking his head, Finn put it out of his mind and said to the woman, “You can go. You heard what they said just now. They won’t cause you any more trouble.”

After saying that, Finn turned to Montgomery Tian, who was standing not far from him, and said, “Alright, let’s go.”

“Yes, sir,” Montgomery Tian hesitantly glanced at Finn before following.

Dunn Monty and Thomas Calvin exchanged glances before following Finn and Montgomery Tian out. After walking for several dozen meters, Finn furrowed his brow, halted, and turned to look at the woman, who was still a bit stiff, but struggling to keep up. “Why are you following me? I already told you, you’re free. Those people won’t trouble you anymore.”

“You repaid my debt, so I belong to you now. I have nowhere else to go.” Seeing Finn suddenly stop, the woman was startled and hastily stammered out her response.

“You don’t have to be indebted to me, you’re free.” Finn dismissively waved his hand and resumed walking without waiting for her response.

After walking another ten meters or so, Finn could still sense the woman following him. Feeling helpless, he stopped again, turned around, and said to the woman, “Did I not make myself clear? You’re free. You don’t have to follow me.”

“I… I have nowhere to go, I… I have no family,” the woman carefully responded, her gaze fixed on Finn.

Finn was at a loss for words. His own problems hadn’t been sorted out yet, and now he had to take care of this added burden. However, he refrained from saying too much, simply continuing on his way. Once they left the airport, Montgomery Tian quickly rented a luxurious-looking magnetic floating car, which had a large internal space that could comfortably accommodate seven or eight people.

Finn, Dunn Monty, and the rest climbed into the back of the magnetic floating car, while Montgomery Tian sat in the passenger seat. The woman cautiously climbed into the car after them.

Finn glanced at her but didn’t object. If she wanted to follow, then so be it. Even though this woman was indeed beautiful – from her skin to her body shape to her looks – Finn didn’t have any particular plans for her.

The magnetic floating car quickly ascended onto the track. Finn noticed that there were fixed routes for the cars; they couldn’t fly around at will.

After about half an hour, the magnetic floating car stopped beneath a skyscraper that was thousands of stores tall and covered several square kilometers. The car stopped in front of an auxiliary building on the outskirts of the skyscraper.

After paying the car rental fee, Dunn Monty said quietly, “Your Highness, we have arrived.”
