NIKKE, When the Milky Way Blossoms

"Is it a matter of willingness or unwillingness?"

"Well--"

"...Okay."

Sensing the shyness and joy in Anise's tone, Phoenix knew that his sweet talk hadn't been in vain. At this moment, he had only one sincere thought in his heart.

Thank you, Honglian, for saving his life!

Chapter 122 It seems everyone is revolving around one man (Part 1)

Ruins littered with debris, a battlefield shrouded in smoke.

Nearly two hundred Lechers, dismembered into pieces of iron, lay scattered here, some sparking, others still twitching.

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, who would believe that Niki could actually fight Leitch at close range with melee weapons and still achieve an overwhelming victory?

"belch!"

Sipping her wine and burping, the drunken woman strolled through this desolate and tranquil abandoned city. Her long, silvery-white hair, no longer bound by hairpins, swayed with her steps, adding a touch of youthful energy and vitality unique to young girls.

but……

Judging from Honglian's expression, she seemed rather unhappy.

There was no reason or logic to it, and even the old woman herself couldn't quite understand why she couldn't enjoy herself today.

how to say……

Something just doesn't feel right.

This terrible feeling is like a muscle fiber stuck between your teeth. You can vaguely sense it, but no matter what you do, you just can't pick it out, to the point that you start to doubt whether there's anything stuck in your teeth at all.

In summary: It was extremely unpleasant.

"How strange—how strange—"

Honglian muttered to herself, putting away the wine cup in her hand, and murmured:

"Could it be because you have something on your mind? Why can't you even enjoy drinking anymore..."

"No."

"Next time I run into you, I'll have to kidnap you for a few days and drink and chat to my heart's content."

……

……

On the ground, women were plotting how to snatch men from the ark.

Underground, even more women are figuring out how to possess a man's kidneys.

Take Agnes, for example.

The Commander did apologize, confess his feelings, and express his reconciliation to her. She accepted, agreed, and made a promise with him.

But no matter what, she, as the empress, had never participated in shaking the bed until it fell apart.

How can such a vast harem have no rules at all?

What kind of behavior is this?!

"Commander..."

"Ok?"

Wearing a fake police uniform and considering herself the rightful wife, Anise spoke in a barely audible voice while tidying up someone's room.

"We made a promise, you'll spend time with me tonight."

"……Um."

Phoenix could only nod stiffly in agreement to his wife's request, before quickly changing the subject.

"Speaking of which, you just sneaked in wearing this outfit? You didn't use any other methods?"

"correct."

Anis chuckled, "When I arrived, the school gate was a mess. The ACPU people and the Triangle Force people were arguing at the gate, so I went to buy... well... anyway, I slipped in while they were arguing."

The girl was too embarrassed to tell the commander that her high-quality replica police uniform came from an adult convenience store.

The outfit doesn't look too problematic on the outside, but it actually contains many inappropriate designs and hidden zippers inside.

However, someone in a state of post-coital reflection focused their attention on the conflict between ACPU and Triangle Force mentioned by the girl.

"quarrel?"

"Mmm," Anise replied contentedly, taking a bottle of beer from the refrigerator.

"They were arguing fiercely, but as for the specifics... I don't really know."

……

……

“Polly, there’s no point in arguing like this. Let’s get straight to the point. Ark Central believes that the murder case at MMR Affiliated High School falls under the category of terrorism, and counter-terrorism operations have always been handled by the Triangle Force.”

Yulsha, the leader of the Triangle Force, is a workaholic with shark-like teeth that don't confuse anyone.

At this moment, she was standing at the very front of the line, facing off against Officer Polly with an impatient expression.

It has to be said that the woman's prominent shark teeth and dark circles under her eyes definitely added to her seriousness, making her look much more intimidating than the short, hairy female police officer.

Unfortunately, Polly, as ACPU's star cop, is no pushover either.

"Of course I understand that the triangular unit is responsible for counter-terrorism."

"But counterterrorism is counterterrorism, investigation is investigation, and manhunting is manhunting. It's fine if your triangle unit is eager to fight terrorism and manhunt, but the investigation phase must be handled by our ACPU."

"Oh?"

Yursha, who was well-versed in political affairs, immediately sensed a subtle questioning in the policewoman's words.

"Do you think our Triangle Force is less capable of dealing with the dead than with the living?"

Hearing the workaholic's blunt question, Polly, representing the face of ACPU, certainly didn't hold back. She confidently raised the corners of her mouth, touched her hair, and said, "What, do you want to compete with us police in the speed of investigating murderers?"

"Ha, let's have a competition, but we need to set the rules first."

"no problem."

Then came another long argument. After several hours of bickering, the two women finally agreed to compromise, amidst the utterly dejected expressions of their subordinates.

—Everyone should do their own thing; whoever finds the murderer first gets to claim the murderer.

……

……

"murderer?"

His gaze fell on the basement doorway. Leaning against the frame, Phoenix glanced first at Yulsha's shark-like mouth, then at Polly's excessively thick hair, and suddenly realized:

"Oh yes, I am the murderer. I killed that sergeant from the military yesterday at noon. What do you want?"

Yursha: "..."

Polly: "..."

Looking at the man's shirt, which didn't even have a single button, and hearing the sound of the shower coming from the room, both Nikis, one tall and one short, looked rather unpleasant.

They had never seen such an arrogant suspect before; it was practically a blatant challenge to the authority of the Ark's law enforcement agencies.

Polly, who prided herself on being a police officer, immediately lowered her eyelids and asked with an unfriendly expression, "Name?"

Phoenix.

"Profession."

"commander."

"age."

"26."

"What did you do last night?"

"A rocking bed." Phoenix, oblivious to any sense of shame, tugged at his tattered shirt and said impatiently, "There aren't even any recreational facilities at school. What else can we do in the middle of the night if we're not rocking a bed? Play on our phones?"

Polly: "A rocking bed?"

Yursha: "..."

Polly: "What do you mean by 'rocking bed'?"

Yursha: "…………"

Seeing Officer Polly's confused look, Yulsha, feeling a little embarrassed, hesitated for a long time before leaning down and whispering a reminder in her ear.

In the short time it took to say those few words, Mihara, Marian, and Maricana, who had finished taking statements, happened to walk over from the stairwell at the corner of the basement.
