Chapter 4

"?????!!!!!!!"

Buccelati. You internally scream.  Awkwardly trying to compose yourself. Refraining to fangirl in his presence. "You can't have the money if you're after it." Peering down at you. Averting at his gaze, you accidentally took a glimpse at his chest tattoo. Your cheeks redden since he's a bit close at you. "You don't have to worry Signore. I don't have any intention on taking the money. I overheard them talking and saw them grinning suspiciously. That's why I decided to follow him here to make sure I was right, so I can report it to the authorities."

He stared at you thinking that you were foolish. Why would you follow someone that might be a criminal who happens to be an actual criminal. Lifting your lips forming an awkward smile. You were nervous that he wouldn't believe you. "Next time you should have just gone straight to the authorities. What would you do if he caught you following him?" He Sigh at your foolishness and head in to the abandoned house. Not wanting to leave, you decided to stay and wait for Buccellati.

A minute has passed and Buccellati came out, now holding a suitcase. Noticing you didn't leave made him sigh in distress. Maybe you didn't know your way? He motions you to follow him.

The both of you walked in silence.

The both of you walked in awkward silence. Desiring to talk to your favorite character, you start engaging a conversation. "Uhm... Signore I haven't gotten your name yet" You started by asking his name. He looks down at you. "Bruno Buccellati." he answered and asked your name. "I'm (Y/N)(L/N)!" you promptly introduced your name.

Not wanting to end your conversation by just introducing your names. You ask him what he will do to the money. "I will return it to the owner." He answered. You asked him if he was a cops undercover since he's returning the money to the owner which he immediately said no.

Thereafter returning the money from the owner. He gently advised you not to follow any suspicious people anymore since it's dangerous to do so. Like why would you even follow someone dangerous, you're not a police for goodness' sake.

"Will we ever see each other again?" you sheepishly asked.

He smiles down at you. "Maybe, someday" he said before bid farewell at you.

After Buccellati left. You made your way to the prison to see Polpo. 'Mission Time!'.

"Hmmm... (Y/N) (L/N) was it?" Polpo started getting some wine from the mini fridge. "You don't seem to be from here... and you wanted to join the gang." he says then get a glass wine and start pouring the wine on the glass wine."It's rare for a woman specially for a young girl like you to join the gang."

He stops pouring the wine at the glass wine and offers it to you."Here, how about some Excellent Chianti Wine."

Looking at the glass wine he is offering, you didn't really want to accept it and decided to decline it."Umm... No, thank you..." shaking your head no, making an excuse for not recieving it. "...The Police told me not to hand or receive anything from you."

Polpo glance down at you amused at your excuse."Buuhuu they only say that for protocol purposes" he get some crackers and started muching it. "But Humans often... Say and Do different things." taking a gulp from the glass wine, he continued. "And that's the Beauty of Humans! Though it can be often as ugly side of them."

Looking back him, you were not really listening at what he was saying since most of what he's saying is the same from what he said at Giorno. Your mind started to wander. Completely blocking the sound from Polpo talking about paintings.

"As I was saying, the only thing I lack is that I can't see Michelangelo's Paintings on the wall of the....."he kept on talking about that he can't see some paintings and that he have some collection of other. Turning his head down at you. "Hmm... Let's Start the Entrance Examination..." Then the clock from table suddenly alarm, a bird came out with a 'cuckoo' sound startling you.

Glancing back at Polpo who is now holding a lit-up lighter on his right hand, while holding his glass of wine on his other hand taking a sip of it.

"When one has to choose from a list of candidates, what do you think is the most important quality to note, (Y/N) (L/N)?"

Remembering the right answer for that question. "I think it's trust." you answered with confidence.

"That's right, it's about trust. When one has to choose from a list of candidates, the most Important element to note is Trust.... This test is about measuring your trustworthiness using this Lighter's Flame." He handed the litted lighter down at you. "Take it and don't let the flame die." taking the lighter from him, you carefully held the lighter in your hands. Since it'll be hustle if the fire went out, and litting it will be troublesome.

"For 24 hours, you are to guard that lighter without letting the flame out! If you can do that, I'll accept you into the gang." Nodding at him, you mutter. "Understood." Walking out of his cell. Once you were out of his view you open your spatial inventory putting the lighter inside.

"That was easy." smirking by the fact that you have a cheat of inventory, making it easier for you to pass the test. Heading out, the policewoman stops you and start inspecting your body if you are hiding something that Polpo might've give you. Not finding anything from you. "You are free to go." You continue walking making your way out of the prison. After that you made your way to buy some (fav. flavor) gelato ice cream.
