Xiaoxia hung upside down from the ceiling and eavesdropped.
After the door of the archives room was closed, the police chief walked to the center of the room and sat down behind a dusty desk. He seemed to insist on sitting on an equal footing with the old man in the wheelchair despite being dirty.
The female assistant locked the wooden door from the inside. The old man in the wheelchair talked to the police chief in a low voice:
"Listen, I'm going to the outer city to buy paintings tomorrow night. You can send Han Muyue to be my bodyguard alone, do you understand?"
From Xiao Xia's perspective, he couldn't clearly see the look in the police chief's eyes, but he just felt that the police chief seemed angry.
"Mr. Collector, don't you already have two powerful bounty hunters as bodyguards? Why bother asking Mu Yue to accompany you?"
The collector did not answer, but proudly leaned his weak head back on the wheelchair.
"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking!" The police chief punched the table, causing dust to rise and a nearby phone to click, causing the handset to fall over and a busy signal appeared.
The female assistant came forward and reset the phone, and the collector continued: "Since the "police car bombing" 12 years ago, Mu Yue's branch has lost power within the family. Didn't Mu Yue's father, the former deputy police chief, drink all day long and not even attend family gatherings? What are you doing to protect this useless daughter? "
The police chief gritted his teeth: "You are not allowed to say that about Mu Yue, and you are not allowed to say that my brother is a waste!"
The Collector was not afraid of the wrath of the Inspector General of Police, and his tone remained low and even.
"Keep your voice down, do you want the scandal of the Han family to be publicized? I will be 90 years old next month. Among the three major families, you don't understand what it means to be 90 years old, right?"
The collector raised his hand, and the female assistant behind him immediately understood and explained: "Every ten years, the company will recruit one person from each of the three major families into the Senate to assist the company in managing Stone City. The premise is that this person must be 10 years old. After reaching the age of 90 and entering the Senate, all ties with the family must be severed."
Although the Collector could not stand up, his tone began to tighten.
"Although the company prohibits us from contacting the original family, it is still possible if I enter the Senate and pass some resolutions that are beneficial to the Han family."
The chief of police was silent.
The collector's dry lips raised: "The three major families have a glamorous appearance and are envied by everyone, but in fact they are just wolf dogs of the company. Even if your father is the patriarch of the family, what does it mean in front of the company's Senate?"
The police chief's face became increasingly ugly, but the collector's ruthless words continued.
"In recent years, compared with the other two major families, the power of the Han family has declined, right?"
"Sacrifice a little Han Muyue in exchange for the future of the entire Han family. Don't you, the chief police officer with a heavy responsibility, not be able to tell which is more important?"
After a longer silence, the police chief nodded. The collector laughed a few times and was pushed out of the archives by the female assistant.
Xiaoxia, who was hanging upside down from the ceiling, was full of doubts. Although she was not very smart, she could tell that this matter was quite detrimental to Han Muyue.
Why do the same families still kill each other? I really don’t understand what inner-city people think...but is this a good thing for me?
However, the chief of police refused to leave the archives room. Xiaoxia's hands and feet gradually became sore and numb, and she did not dare to make any sound. It was more painful than being tortured.
The chief of police finally picked up the phone on the table and dialed a number.
"Hey, special training base? It's me, find me a Qianxing instructor..."
※※※
Mu Yue was sent back to the police dormitory in the family car. It was already 21:00 in the evening.
As soon as she returned to the dormitory, Mu Yue took off her police uniform and hung it in the closet, then put on a T-shirt, shorts and running shoes similar to Valei's.
"Standing in the art gallery all afternoon, my body has become sluggish. Valei, come with me for a run on the playground!"
"Okay!" Valei, who was lying on the bed eating dog biscuits, jumped up, "It's time for running chat with best friends again!"
The night breeze was warm and on the dormitory playground illuminated by a few side lamps, Sheriff Mu Yue and Valei were running side by side. Round and round.
The sergeant's long black hair flowed back, and his sweat turned into shimmer and dispersed in the air. As a Furui, Vale obviously ran faster, but she deliberately lagged behind the police chief by half a body - she liked the smell of Mu Yue's hair very much.
The city police dormitory is close to the central tower and is better protected by the "clear sky". There was no acid rain here tonight.
A large airship with the words "loyal to the company" written on it flew slowly over the two people, and a monotonous male electronic voice played repeatedly: "Residents please continue to work hard to create a better future for Huanshi City..."
Valei complained to Mu Yue: "Yes, yes, you are the police chief and I am the deputy police dog. We all have a bright future."
Chief Mu Yue braked to a sudden stop: "You are the deputy captain! Where did the special team get the title of deputy police dog?"
"It's better to be a police dog!" Vale complained, "I heard that the pension of Furui people is lower than that of police dogs!"
In Huanshi City, non-mutated animals are quite expensive, and police dogs are very rare in the city police force. There are also rumors that the only primates available for use in corporate laboratories are humans.
The two of them had run 6 laps, and Mu Yue was a little tired. After she stopped, she took a small breath and walked towards a big tree beside the playground.
Mu Yue has a habit of not staying in the playground and getting in the way after she stops exercising. Although there is currently no one else on the playground.
Valle was full of energy and her tail stood up high behind her shorts, which looked more than enough. She also followed the Sheriff to the tree.
"Huh...bring a bottle...just bring a bottle of soda." The sergeant leaned against the tree trunk and wiped the sweat dripping down his face with the back of his hand.
Valei stared at the rise and fall of Mu Yue's chest, which was only wearing a T-shirt. If she were a man, her eyes and smile would definitely be considered lustful.
"Chief, why didn't you wear this when you went on a date with your boyfriend today? Isn't it a pity that such a pair of big white legs are exposed, only for me to see?"
Valei even reached out and touched Mu Yue's reddish knees.
Mu Yue knocked off Valei's hand: "What happened today is not a date. I only wear T-shirts and shorts when I exercise. Who wears them every day like you?"
"This is so convenient!" Valei pointed at herself with the index fingers of both hands, "Besides, it's very hot when running, so I'm too lazy to change into a sports bra, so I just temporarily put on two band-aids to prevent friction..."
Mu Yue frowned and looked at her dog friend: You went out for a good night run to exercise, why do you seem to be performing the master's task?
Valle carelessly pulled open the round collar of his T-shirt to prove that he really only had two band-aids on. The two small white patches on her delicate dark skin made Mu Yue feel like her prosthetic eyes were going to explode.
"Chief, I showed you, shouldn't you also show me how you handled it?" Valetu saw it, and she pulled Mu Yue's T-shirt when she came up, "Be obedient and let me be healthy!" "
Mu Yue resisted, and Valei exposed this "Ji Lao is by my side" behavior not once or twice.
However, this time was different. Valei quickly stopped tearing her T-shirt. Her stubborn nose twitched slightly, as if she smelled something strange.
Mu Yue blushed furiously. The dog-eared girl's sense of smell was 10 times that of humans. Could it be because she smelled too much sweat after exercising? Looks like I have to go back and take a shower right away!
"There's an assassin!"
Completely different from what Mu Yue expected, Valei suddenly jumped up high and rushed up to the leafy crown of the tree with his hands and feet, and then the crackling sound of fighting came from there.
"Ahhhhhh how is that possible! My skin beauty ointment has such a weak smell, how could it be leaked because of this!"
Along with the large branches and fallen leaves, Vale stepped on Miyamoto Konatsu's back and landed safely. The fight just now was basically Konatsu getting beaten unilaterally.
"Eh? Why is she dressed like a ninja?" Valei grabbed Xiaoxia's clothes and asked her to face the police chief. "Breaking into the police dormitory without permission is a serious crime. Let's interrogate her first and then give her to the company to make a "brain" The machine is ready! "
Xiaoxia was almost scared to death after hearing this. She even forgot that she knew the "Phantom Substitution Technique".
"No, don't make me a brain machine! I didn't intend to commit murder but just came to investigate! Please spare me! As long as you spare my life, I will do anything!!"
Konatsu knelt down and begged for mercy in the standard Japanese "Dogeza" posture, and the fear of crying and crying didn't seem to be fake.
Sheriff Mu Yue now straightened out his breath after exercise.
"Valley, don't scare her. There is no tradition here of turning people into brain machines."
Although Konatsu had pulled up his black mesh clothes beforehand and used it as a ninja mask to cover his face, the police chief recognized him as Miyamoto Konatsu from the Night Dragon Club through his naturally curly red hair.
"You are Xiaoxia from the Night Dragon Club and the Luo Ying Group, right? What are you doing here? The police department says that members of the Night Dragon Club do a lot of evil, and they should be arrested immediately when they see them! What do you have to say?"
Seeing Xiaoxia kneeling down and begging for mercy, Valei also relaxed her guard against her. The dog-eared girl whistled and looked at the sky.
Should members of the Night Dragon Society be arrested immediately upon seeing them? I don’t know who is dating the young master of the Night Dragon Club today!
Xiao Xia Zhuang's pitiful tears continued to flow down her face, her eyes searching for the target of the Substitution Technique.
In order to delay time, should we confess to Sheriff Mu Yue that someone is trying to harm her? But why should I save her? I came to the dormitory to spy on her to dig out more dirt on her, but I didn't expect to be caught by the Furui people...
Seeing Xiao Xia lying on the ground crying nonstop, Sheriff Mu Yue was a little impatient.
"Did Qin Jiandan send you here?"
Xiao Xia had an idea and suddenly raised his head: "Yes, the young master sent me! Not only did he send me to collect information, but I'd better take some evidence or clothes back!"
Valei interrupted: "Eh? If you want the Sheriff's underwear, wouldn't it be faster to bribe me directly?"
Mu Yue glared at Valei, and then Xiaoxia finally selected a dead branch on the wall.
"Hahaha! Idiot! You have all been deceived! Phantom Substitution Technique!"
Valei stretched out her hand to grab but only caught the afterimage. Xiaoxia instantly changed places with the dead branches on the wall. After climbing up the wall, she took off the mesh mask and made a face downwards with her tongue sticking out.
"Hmph, it is a great sin to make the eldest sister of the Luoying Group and the head of the Miyamoto family kneel down and beg for mercy! You will encounter misfortune soon! This is heavenly punishment!"
With a proud laugh, Xiaoxia jumped off the wall and ran away quickly. In the process, she also used the "Phantom Substitution Technique" several times to prevent Valei from chasing her.
"Damn it, I didn't expect her to be a mutant!" Valei also jumped onto the wall, but soon lost track of Xiaoxia.
"Let her go. I will confirm this with Qin Jiandan." Sheriff Mu Yue said, "Miyamoto Konatsu and him don't have a simple relationship between superior and subordinate. One of them must be lying to me. .”
The long-haired policewoman narrowed her eyes slightly in the dark night and bit her lower lip.
"...If it was Qin Jiandan who lied to me, I would divorce him immediately!"
