[ Apparently Jigokucho is not willing to bestow upon her that mercy, but look perhaps she can find a nice utility hole that will lead her down into the underground sewers. Close enough right? As for Xingqiu, his gaze doesn't waver once, and an almost knowing look is reflected in his eyes accompanied by an impish smile. Rather than take his possessions back immediately, he hits a button on the vending machine just a tad too roughly with a close fist. Out clutters a bottle noisily that is quickly picked up.

For the briefest of moments, he seems to be inspecting his purchase. It's no longer that happy smiling drink he was previously considering. Soon he holds the glass bottle by its neck and points it at her, menacingly.

His voice is smooth, clear, and commanding. ]

Hand over everything!

[ And then just like that he laughs. ]
