After finishing their juice, Zhu Yuan and Qingyi planned to return to the Public Security Bureau; it wasn’t time for them to clock out yet.
Before leaving, Qingyi turned back and said with a smile, “Manager, Zhu Yuan’s mother spoke with me.
She’s looking forward to seeing Zhu Yuan bring you home sometime.
She seems a bit anxious~” Zhu Yuan was a young woman in her twenties now, but her mother had never seen her daughter have any contact with the opposite sex.
Having happened to see Zhu Yuan and Shiro eating noodles together and talking harmoniously, she couldn’t help but start gossiping.
She knew that if she asked her daughter directly, it would definitely make the thin-skinned Zhu Yuan feel embarrassed, so she inquired with Qingyi, a colleague who had a good relationship with Zhu Yuan.
“Senior!” Zhu Yuan let out a shy cry, her face instantly turning a deep shade of red, matching the ‘Zhu’ (vermilion) in her name.
Her eyes darted around bashfully, not knowing where to look.
If she could have used her toes to dig a house out of the floor, she would have dug out the entire Janus District Public Security Bureau by now.
“Haha, Zhu Yuan, why is your face so red?
Are you shy?” Qingyi teased with a laugh.
“Is Moth— Auntie wanting me to come over for dinner?” Shiro had met Zhu Yuan’s mother a few times; she had short hair with red highlights similar to Zhu Yuan’s.
Qingyi raised an eyebrow, revealing a meaningful and mischievous smile.
‘Manager kid, you were about to say Mother-in-law just now, weren’t you?’ ‘However…
I haven’t been a matchmaker yet.
Let me create an opportunity for you two.’ Zhu Yuan rolled her eyes at Shiro and pulled Qingyi away, leaving behind a single sentence: “I’ll remember this grudge.” “Manager, you’re getting involved with a Public Security Officer.
Aren’t you afraid of being hauled away if you commit a crime later?” Twiggy asked.
Since they clearly did some illegal things, was he planning to offer himself up to the Public Security Officer as an achievement?
Updating isn’t easy, remember to share 101kanshu.com “It’s fine.
Zhu Yuan isn’t that pedantic or indiscriminate,” Shiro shook his head.
“By the way, Twiggy, let me ask you a question.
If Zhu Yuan farts, would her pants bulge?” Twiggy: “?” Hearing this question, Twiggy looked at Shiro in bewilderment.
Wasn’t he being a bit too improper?
Most importantly, when asking such an improper question, why was his expression so serious?
“It’s a good thing you didn’t say that in front of that Public Security Officer, Manager.
Otherwise, she probably would have handcuffed you on the spot for harassment,” Twiggy said expressionlessly.
However, those pants did have a very leathery feel and looked airtight, but they probably wouldn’t bulge.
After all, she was an officer.
If they were stuffy and airtight, it would affect her performance of public security duties.
The pants should be made of a special material.
‘Wait, what am I thinking about?!’ “Let’s go, I’ll take you to see Anby.” Shiro had already walked a few meters away and called back to the pensive Twiggy.
“Got it.” Twiggy quickly followed.
It had been several years since she last saw Anby.
After being sold by scavengers and then resold by buyers, drifting through the black market, she didn’t even know how she had managed to pull through.
It must have been the obsession in her heart.
With so many sisters falling around her, there was bound to be resentment and struggle.
“Awoo~” As they passed the newsstand, the dog wearing green clothes let out an ‘Awoo’ and waved a paw at Shiro in a very human-like manner.
“Awoo, I haven’t bought a scratch card today,” Shiro tapped his forehead.
They say if you buy one every day, good luck will arrive sooner or later.
If Shiro didn’t forget, he would scratch one here.
This dog was named Awoo.
Sixth Street was a place of hidden dragons and crouching tigers; even a dog wasn’t simple.
It could be called upon in the middle of the night, whereas the newsstands at Lumina Square closed directly at night.
Furthermore, the newsstand’s location offered a great view, overlooking the ramen shop, the video store, and other shops.
It was a “strategically vital location” on Sixth Street.
Compared to that Little Bai Luan who ran around everywhere, this Awoo was much cuter.
After all, he just stayed honestly at the newsstand to watch the shop every day without wandering off.
After scratching off the coating, the pattern showed three bones.
Shiro was already used to it.
After vigorously rubbing Awoo’s dog head, Shiro set off with Twiggy.
This was also a routine he frequently performed.
“Awoo!” Awoo barked indignantly.
‘I may not be human, but this human biped is a real dog.’ …
Cunning Hares.
Today was another day without business.
The three of them were holed up at home with nothing to do.
Going out shopping cost money, so for Nicole, staying home was naturally more economical.
Anby and Billy were watching TV, while Nicole used a towel to polish each and every denny until they were sparkling to her satisfaction.
*Ding—* “So pleasant~” To Nicole, the crisp sound of two dennies clinking together was countless times more beautiful than any song sung by a big star.
She never tired of hearing it; the more she heard it, the more hooked she became.
*Knock knock knock—* “Open up, the Public Security Bureau is here to deliver some warmth.” Hearing the knocking and the shouting, Billy subconsciously jumped up, hid behind the sofa, and whispered, “Boss Nicole, the fuzz is here.” “Fuzz your ass, that’s Shiro’s voice.” Nicole rolled her eyes.
‘You grabbed your pistols too fast.
Is such a reflex really necessary?’ If the Public Security Bureau really discovered their identities as Hollow Raiders, the knocking wouldn’t be so polite.
They would probably break down the door directly, and if anyone dared to resist, they’d empty their magazines.
In the end, the autopsy results would find a small amount of human tissue among a pile of bullets.
“Why are you knocking?
Shiro, don’t you have a key?” “Forgot it.
Someone come open the door.” Nicole gently kicked Billy’s bouncy butt: “Billy, you go open the door.” “Boss Nicole, isn’t Anby here too~” Billy’s head-shaking movements looked very bouncy.
He pointed at the equally idle Anby.
Why was it always him?
Did Intelligent Constructs have no human rights?
“Just go.” “To those who can do more, more is given.
You usually spend more dennies.” Nicole spoke with sound logic.
Billy required maintenance and upkeep, while Anby didn’t have such needs.
Naturally, there was a difference in expenses.
“Got it, Boss Nicole.” Billy had no rebuttal and had to go open the door.
“Yo, you’re all here as expected.
Just as I thought.” Shiro and Twiggy entered.
At that moment, as if sensing something, Anby instantly turned her head to look over.
“You’re…
Twiggy?” Although Twiggy’s appearance had changed, Anby still subconsciously called out her name.
‘Holy crap, she’s been identified!’ Shiro thought in surprise.
Was this the telepathy between members of the Silver Squad?
She wasn’t even trying to hide it.
“Captain Anby, how did you tell?” Twiggy’s heart skipped a beat.
‘The Captain cares about me; she hasn’t forgotten me.’ “It really is you!” *Whoosh!* *Thud!* Anby instantly launched herself up and hugged Twiggy.
The force was so great that Twiggy couldn’t help but let out a muffled groan.
What a powerful hug.
Captain Anby’s strength was as formidable as ever.
It was truly captivating.
“Ahhh…
so dizzy.” Billy had been knocked aside by Anby and was spinning like a top on the spot, with stars appearing over his head.
Why was he the only one getting hurt?
“Shiro, Billy, you two come out with me.” Nicole pulled Shiro with one hand and the spinning, goofy Billy with the other, leading them outside.
She wanted Shiro to answer her questions while also giving Anby and Twiggy some private space.
…
After learning about her Anby’s past from Shiro, Nicole’s expression was quite colorful, but she accepted it quickly.
“So I just happened to pick up an elite from the former military?” She hadn’t questioned Anby’s former identity.
They were family, after all, and Anby probably hadn’t said anything because she didn’t want to involve them.
Now that she knew Anby’s former identity, Nicole’s eyes widened.
No wonder Anby had such skills.
“Billy was also picked up by me and has many secrets.
Shiro, do you also have some hidden secrets?” Nicole looked at her hands.
To be able to pick up so many treasures was incredibly impressive.
Was she possessing the Hand of God?
“I am Superman.” Shiro said frankly.
It was just that he was still in the beginning stages and needed to bask in the sun.
He would try going into space to bask in the sun later.
“Superman?
Never heard of it.
Anyway, you’re not an ordinary person either.
Heh, I really have a knack for picking things up.” Nicole felt like she was a legendary bargain hunter; whenever she made a move, she could pick up something extraordinary.
She now had the urge to try her luck at the junkyard.
She didn’t know what good things she could bring back this time, but since the idea had occurred to her, she naturally had to go see for herself.
“Shiro, Billy, let’s go to the junkyard!” “Boss Nicole, didn’t we just go yesterday?” “Shut up, Billy.
I’m the boss!” …
