The Villainess With A Heroine Harem-Chapter 62 - Troublemakers Downtown
Dixie couldn't believe that her friends had fucked up so bad on the first day they were supposed to meet with her princess.
Just what kind of impression did they intend to leave?!
She couldn't help but grit her teeth in anger. "You couldn't have just… pulled them apart or something?"
Jenna chuckled sheepishly from the other side of the phone, knowing she was in for a scolding once Dixie got there. "I thought they looked funny… I didn't think it would turn out like this, I swear!"
Dixie sighed. 'Well, what's done is done. I can only hope that Emily doesn't believe my friends are a bunch of gangsters because of this.'
"…Which station are you at?"
"Um, Downtown."
Of course, she couldn't bring her princess along to such a place, so her friends would have to wait first.
"Alright, wait, I'll drop Emily off at her home and get there in an hour or so."
Jenna clearly didn't seem to mind, her voice turning cheerful. All she really cared about was that her parents didn't get to know of their 'adventure', or she'll be in BIG trouble.
"Awesome! I can never thank your mom enough for always getting us out of misfortune! Can't imagine how our parents would react if they found out."
Dixie rolled her eyes as she cut the call. 'Maybe I should tell their parents, it would be a just punishment for making me look bad in front of Emily!'
Just as she was about to tell the driver to start heading to Emilia's place, however, her princess interrupted her with a smile. "Let's go to your friends first. It's not like I have a curfew, right?"
"Ahhh, but Emily… they're not in a good place, I can handle this myself, you don't need to—"
Emilia pouted. "Are you embarrassed to introduce me to your friends, Dixie?"
"O-Of course not! How can that be?! Let's go. Driver uncle, drive to the Downtown police station!"
Emilia chuckled. Her knight was really too easy. She was quite curious to see what these 'friends' of hers were like.
While they were on the way to the station, Dixie decided to call her mother in advance to inform her of her friends' situation. After all, the less Emilia had to wait at the station, the better.
"Ah? Those three brats got arrested again?"
"Y-Yeah…"
"I'm thinking I should hire a separate lawyer just for them. It'll be a good investment, since there will be a lot of paperwork once they're no longer underage."
"J-Jeez mom! I'll get them in line soon, you don't have to do that!"
"And I'm assuming you're making me do this for free, again?"
"Um…"
The line was silent for a few seconds before her mother spoke again.
"Well, alright, but you better keep your promise for that restaurant thing!"
Dixie's entire face bloomed into a deep shade of red, suddenly very glad that she hadn't put the phone on speaker. How mortifying would it be if Emilia could hear everything?
"I-I already did that!"
"You did?! Wow… no wait, I won't believe it until I see it myself!"
Dixie hesitated before shyly glancing at Emilia, who didn't seem to be paying her much attention. "I-I'll show you, later…"
"You better! I won't wait for long."
Her mother didn't talk much after that, and Dixie breathed a sigh of relief after dropping her call with a brief goodbye.
Emilia kept playing around with her phone, and just as Dixie was about to curiously peek over to see what her princess was doing, she heard a 'ding!' from her own phone.
Looking down at her screen, she discovered that Emilia had sent her a 'media' in her mailbox. And a brief look at the thumbnail was enough to turn her entire face red in shame.
"T-Thank you, princess."
Emilia just smirked, her eyes shining mischievously, and Dixie could feel things in her body that she definitely shouldn't be feeling while on the way to the police station.
'Thankfully', the car stopped in front of the station before Dixie could really lose control, and the girl got out feeling both disappointment and relief.
As they entered the building, Dixie was greeted by a man in a black suit right by the entrance, who informed her that the matter had already been handled, and she was free to take her friends back. This was, of course, the lawyer her mother had sent over.
Since it was just a minor scuffle, along with all of them being underage, there actually wasn't any need to make too much fuss, let alone for Mrs. Brown to come in person.
So by the time Emilia and Dixie arrived at the station, the girls were already 'released', although technically they were never even arrested in the first place, only detained.
But even though they were 'released', their eyes were still red as they clutched their ears in pain, because a young lady officer was currently giving them a very 'passionate' lecture about youth, responsibilities, and social expectations.
"You're still so young, how can you get into fights like this?"
"And to do it on the street! Disturbing other people as well!"
"What if one of you stumbled onto the road during the fight, and got hit by a truck?! Do you think you'll get isekai'd like those stupid anime? NO. You'll be fucking dead!"
"If I ever see you here again—"
Dixie had a headache just looking at the police lady. 'Oh shit… it's Justine!'
Regardless of their 'sins', no one deserved to suffer under Justine's lectures more than once in their life.
She hastily interrupted them with a greeting, and Justine turned to her in surprise.
"Ah, Dixie, you're here to pick them up again? I remember you promised me last time that they'll never make trouble again, but—"
She was already quite familiar with this police lady, and hurriedly hushed her as she got close. "Uh, Justine! Not in front of my friend, okay?" 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝒆𝘸𝚎𝙗𝒏oν𝙚𝘭.𝐜𝒐m
Justine glanced curiously at the fancily dressed girl following behind Dixie. "Your new friend?"
"Um."
"Not a troublemaker, though?"
"Of course not! My princess is as sweet and innocent as anyone can possibly be! Nothing like those three idiots!"
"Ahh, that's a relief… wait a minute, isn't that… the girl on TV?!"
Emilia smiled. "Hello. Nice to meet you, I'm Emilia White."
"S-Stay back! I'm not a bad officer, spare me!"
