Ark, after I died, the operators started to love me.

If Dr. Kal'tsit heard this, she'd probably give him a good beating on the spot.

"I'll take you back in another hour or two."

"Does it take so long?"

Hoshiguma said irritably, "Do you know how much trouble you and Mostima have caused? Sarkaz are rare to begin with. Getting into a romantic entanglement with a man on the streets of Lungmen is enough to cause a stir just because of her race. Letting you out now is just giving her an opportunity."

"Sister Xiong, will anyone object to my liking for Mostima?"

……

"I know there will be people who object to my liking for him."

After arriving at the Guard Bureau, Mostima finally calmed down. Recalling what she had done during this period, she covered her face in shame and lay on the table, too ashamed to get up.

She actually hugged him and cried in front of so many people.

This must have completely ruined the good image that Fiameta had of her before.

I wonder if Xiao Le will laugh at her.

But I also felt a sense of relief.

So he really didn't die. There must be another plan behind that funeral at Rhodes Island.

The fallen angel thought to himself that someone might stand up and oppose him once they knew the truth.

"Don't do this. The more you do this, the more I feel like that man has cursed you."

Fiametta's voice came from the side.

It seems she forgot that Li Boli was watching her the whole time.

Mostima barely managed to peek through the crack, and said shyly, "How much longer are you going to watch?"

"Tell me who he is. He's probably not an ordinary person, nor is he what I think he is."

What kind of person do you think he is?

Although the Red Liberi lacked the empathy of the angels, they were not blind or deaf. Even if they didn't realize it at first, they should have realized it eventually.

Who is Mostima's favorite person?

That despicable Rhodes Island doctor.

After his death, the fallen angel remained depressed, and if this continued, Liberi even suspected that she would die young.

But now things have taken a turn. Mostima, who originally needed time to heal her wounds, has instead embraced a strange man, crying and making a scene. In the absence of a curse, there is only one possibility left.

Fiameta recalled everything that happened at the closed-door meeting at the Longmen Relief Home.

The fact that the auto repair shop owner, Mike Ann, is highly suspicious adds a lot of credibility to this possibility.

"He is Dr. Ann, isn't he? It's hard to believe, but I can't think of any other possibility."

When Liboli uttered those words, Mostima finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Some things are kept hidden, and the person involved finds it difficult to say them on their own initiative. But if someone else brings them up, there's nothing to be embarrassed about.

"Well, that's him."

"I knew it. No wonder Lin Yuxia and Texas spoke up for him. Even Hoshiguma probably guessed it. This is getting interesting. Are you going to tell Xiao Le?"

Should we tell Remy?

Mostima hesitated, which was uncharacteristic of him.

Reason told her that Mike was Xiao Le's righteous man and that she had the right to know the truth, but her inner desires told her that telling Xiao Le might not be a good thing.

"I do not know."

"Just like back then, you wouldn't tell Xiaole who hurt An'an?"

The fallen angel felt a dryness in his throat.

"Some things don't necessarily need to be said. Texas didn't say anything either, did she?"

Blaming the Ruperts might bring temporary peace, but once the truth comes out, we'll eventually have to face the consequences.

Now, I'm running away...

Mostima's hesitation was noticed by Fiameta, and Liboli finally decided to help his companion.

"Then let's not say anything yet. I've already thought of a reason for you. Even if Mike is Ann, we need to observe him for a while."

The fallen angel suddenly raised his head, looking at his companion in disbelief.

Fiameta sighed, "I've done everything I could for you, what can I do when we're partners?"

"Thank you."

"It's really not easy to hear you say thank you. It's okay, I'll help you, I promise."

……

During the questioning.

Mike had just finished eating, wiped his mouth, and was finally satisfied with his appetite.

Hoshiguma leaned back in her chair across from me, her eyes slightly closed, leisurely swinging her long legs.

At that moment, the police superintendent pushed open the door and whispered a few words in Hoshiguma's ear. The superintendent suddenly opened his eyes.

"So fast?!"

18. Entering the Spider Cave again

Hoshiguma glanced at Mike's face and whispered to the superintendent beside her, "I understand. You can go out now. I'll ask you a few more questions. It won't take up much time."

"Yes."

After watching the police superintendent leave, Mike finally asked, "What happened?"

The green-haired police inspector sat up straight, his tone slightly strange, as if he were mocking him.

"What else could it be? Miss Lin's private lawyer has come to bail you out. She's right outside the Guard Bureau. According to regulations, the Guard Bureau cannot detain you for more than 24 hours, and she's already here in less than two hours."

It turned out to be the case.

Mike thought to himself, "It seems that Lin Yuxia's informant in the Guard Bureau is so close to Hoshiguma that she was able to pass on the information so quickly."

Lin Yuxia probably knew what had happened, but she didn't want Mike to stay there any longer. Going through the procedures wouldn't take long, and Xingxiong would have no choice but to release him, which is why the police inspector sighed with regret.

There was no way around it; Lin Yuxia was keeping a close eye on things.

Mike estimated that if she knew what had happened this afternoon, Texas would have a very difficult time succeeding, even though the Rupert were only minutes away from doing so.

"Let's go, I'll see you out. We'll go through the back door; there's probably someone watching the front door, and it wouldn't be good if something unexpected happened."

Hoshiguma couldn't help but pat Mike's shoulder hard as she said this: "You're a big shot now. Miss Lin is afraid that you'll suffer any injustice. If I were to torture you to extract a confession, she'd probably have her lawyer write a statement and submit it to the higher-ups tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Mike cautiously asked, "Will Star Sir really resort to such methods?"

"Hehe, I've prepared a lot of surprises for you, but unfortunately there's not enough time."

God knows how much of what Hoshiguma said was a joke.

Mike had seen his kind older sister angry before, and it was truly terrifying.

Mike's expression made Hoshiguma both amused and exasperated, so she made a few teasing remarks, and he actually took it seriously.

Dr. Kal'tsit from Rhodes Island is currently "visiting" the Guard Bureau. She's locked up, but nobody will do anything to her. It would be a real problem if something happened to Mike here.

In front of Dr. Kal'tsit, Miss Lin was like a mouse meeting a cat, a mere child compared to a great wizard.

"Go, go, hurry up and leave, don't get in my way."

Hoshiguma practically shooed Mike out of the Guard Bureau. When they arrived at the back door of the building, a meticulously modified black van was parked in the middle of a row of police cars, making it extremely conspicuous.

A Wolper man in a black suit walked out of the side door of the Guard Bureau building carrying documents, just as he and Mike Starbear were walking together.

Hoshiguma laughed and said, "You've arrived just in time."

"I was just fighting for my client's right to live up to expectations. I'm glad I did. Thank you for your hard work, Mr. Xing."

"Get out of here."

"Sir Xing, may I take this as an insult to my client?"

Hoshiguma ignored him and turned to Mike, saying, "See this? This is the lawyer Miss Lin keeps, always causing trouble for the Guard Bureau."

The man in the walper said sternly, "Star sir, you are making a personal attack on me. I reserve the right to reserve my opinion on this complaint."

Mike immediately cast a sympathetic glance, but there was nothing he could do. This time, he sided with Lin Yuxia, since Miss Lin was his "savior."

Hoshiguma stood on the steps of the back door of the Guard Bureau, watching Mike follow the lawyer to the black van. The lawyer then changed course and left alone, while Mike got into the car.

"Hoshiguma, come up here, I saw everything."

The police inspector heard his superior's voice through his earpiece.

Without a doubt, the head of the Imperial Guard was looking down from upstairs and had seen everything that had just happened.

Hoshiguma frowned and asked, "Weren't you on vacation?"

Since the attack on the Royal Guard Bureau and the lifting of the blockade on the outer ring of Lungmen, the Royal Guard Bureau has been working overtime to clean up the area around the incident site in just two days, but unfortunately nothing happened.

Everyone present at the time saw the intense light erupting from the Royal Guard Bureau, and the small sun in the outer ring of Lungmen that seemed to engulf everything like a tidal wave. But seeing it was one thing, they couldn't leave any evidence.

Swire, who was at the center of the storm, was given a week's leave, during which Hoshiguma temporarily took over as director.

That's why Hoshiguma was confused when she learned that Swire was in the Guard Bureau.

Why isn't the little tiger resting properly? Why is he coming to work overtime?

"I don't work at the Guard Bureau, so I'm on vacation, right? Come on up, I have something to ask you."

Faced with Swire's urging, Hoshiguma was helpless. She couldn't do anything about Lin Yuxia, just as she couldn't do anything about Little Tiger.

……

the other side.

Mike opened the door of the black van and saw Lin Yuxia sitting in the back seat, her posture upright, her eyes fixed straight ahead without turning her head at all.

But her actions revealed the intimacy of their relationship.
