Transform into a human
Chapter 8 The Cicada Sheds Its Shell
Inside the cubicle, in the same familiar spot, with the same familiar force, Yue Lai now had a bright red palm print on his cheek.
Unlike last time, Li did not sit idly by and wait for death. Instead, she immediately went berserk and tore Yue Lai apart with her bare hands. The latter had to use all his strength to fix the policewoman to the wall.
"Can you let me explain...?"
"Explain your nonsense! Go argue your way out of it in hell!"
There are two paths for naive novices: their innocence gives them sincerity, while their youthful exuberance gives them courage and strength.
Although Yue Lai was a novice, his youthful exuberance gave him an edge over Li, but with a 60% limit, he was already starting to lose control of his opponent.
"Miss Hua Leisi, don't force me!"
"You bastard, you'd better kill me!"
"If you keep causing trouble, don't blame me for using sweet words against you!"
Li suddenly fell silent.
This is the third trick of swindlers: they can make the other party unconditionally believe all kinds of nonsense through physical contact. Since it is "honeyed words", how to make contact is quite clear.
The policewoman was furious but dared not speak out; she was about to explode with rage.
Yue Lai said helplessly, "I can tell you don't believe anything I say right now, but don't you think about it? I have a silver tongue but a treacherous heart; I could easily fool you into believing I'm a fool, yet I choose to patiently explain. Doesn't that speak volumes?"
"You should thank me for choosing the path of innocence and having a high moral standard."
Li blushed. Reason told her that what the other party said was absolutely correct, but she just wanted to tear them apart!
"Besides, I didn't do it on purpose either time," Yue Lai said earnestly. "Let's not talk about the first time, but the second time I said I'd be back in a little while. Isn't your lack of trust your problem?"
Li got angry again: "Don't you even think about why I don't trust you?"
Yue Lai, being a sly fellow, deliberately asked, "Oh? Why?"
"You kicked me off the ship!"
"It was just a kick, you can just kick it back."
"You still...you still..."
"What else do I need?"
This guy did it on purpose! The policewoman steeled herself: "You even spanked me!"
"Pfft."
"?"
Yue Lai knew how to provoke, and Li, who had finally calmed down a bit, flew into a rage again. She felt that she had never been angry in her entire life as much as she had been in the past two days!
"Alright, alright, I thought you'd finally figure it out. Your insight is definitely not as good as a scout's."
"I've used the playboy's tricks right in front of you, and you still can't figure out what I'm thinking?"
Li was stunned for a moment before she could think rationally about why Yue Lai would suddenly appear in front of her.
"Is it... is it [being fickle]?"
"Bing Gou, you got it right."
"So you patted my butt to anchor me?" The policewoman was now able to face the matter calmly.
"That's right, to anchor yourself to the opposite sex, you have to do something that can be called 'intimate,' and this is the least offensive 'intimate interaction' I can think of."
The fourth trick of a prodigal son is to be fickle. Once he anchors himself to a member of the opposite sex, he can ignore the distance and teleport to the target. However, he can only use this trick on the same member of the opposite sex once.
Li continued to struggle verbally:
"Couldn't you have told me beforehand?!"
"Would you really agree?"
"..."
"We can't just act first and ask for permission later!"
"Officer Warren, I'm very disappointed in you."
"The black sheep in the police force haven't been found yet, but you're wasting precious time here for the sake of personal honor and disgrace, disregarding the greater good. Where is your sense of responsibility?!"
Oh no, this is exactly what innocent children fear most!
Although there was a voice of rebellion in her mind, Li Jing still felt a sense of guilt from the bottom of her heart, which gradually amplified.
She whispered:
"I... I won't make a fuss anymore, okay...?"
Yue Lai finally breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, he loosened his grip on Li and started talking about serious matters:
"My escape won't last long. Once those mad dogs catch up to Esfrie, they'll find I'm not on the ship and guess that I've returned to the police headquarters."
Li's intelligence has returned somewhat:
"You want to investigate Superintendent Malfoy? Indeed, he is a headquarters employee and shouldn't be at the Starport branch."
"That's right. Even if he had a valid reason to travel or go on official business, there are many starports in the police headquarters. Why would he specifically appear at the Ninth Starport, where pens are stored?"
"This is simple," Li Cheng's dream of becoming the second superintendent of the police force was rekindled as he saw that the thread of the ball of yarn had been found. "The management of the police headquarters is still very strict. As a senior superintendent, he has to report when he leaves the police headquarters."
"I can ask the boss to check in the system. He is also a senior superintendent. As long as it is within his rank, he can check the registration information of people entering and leaving the Ninth Star Port."
"You mean that officer named Falken?" Yue Lai shook his head. "No."
"The boss is absolutely trustworthy!"
"This is not a matter of trust. Everything related to Malfoy is like a spider's web. Anyone who dares to touch it will be immediately detected and fall into the web."
"We can only look for witnesses outside the network."
Eager to solve the case, Li asked, "Then what do you suggest we do?"
"Go to Langhua City and stop at the building. There is an old acquaintance of mine there. She is the biggest underground intelligence seller in the police headquarters."
"You have this kind of connection?" The policewoman asked, somewhat surprised. "People who work in this line of work at the police headquarters are no ordinary people."
Yue Lai nodded slightly:
"She is indeed a legendary figure."
"There's no time to lose. Let's set off immediately while the dock area is still relatively undefended."
"Before that... Hua Leisi, although I also like white, I suggest you pull up your pants first."

……
Central Galaxy, Vigilant Hub - Esfrie route.
Previously, Donald had escorted Yue Lai along this route, which took three full days. But now, traveling at nearly one-fifth the speed of light, they had glimpsed Esfri's light in less than twenty hours.
The sailing warship completely ignored the police forces sent by the Esfrie police to intercept it. With a bang of its bow cannon, it blocked all the steam jets. Then, the Homecoming charged straight at the two escort ships, startling the police into giving way.
Since it's the police headquarters' fault anyway, they don't want to die together with the criminals!
Soon, the Homecoming crashed into the atmosphere like a fireball, then slammed into the square outside Koror with astonishing speed and accuracy. The fountain in the center of the square emitted a veil of moonlight, which dissipated the shock wave.
But the peaceful town was stirred up. The residents of Windmill Town were excited. Such a rare event was not often seen! They began to call their friends and rush to the square.
"Hey, isn't that Momo, the one steering the ship?"
"Hey, this is a huge mess. The mayor is going to argue with Yue Lai again."
"Grandma Nicole!" the wind-up sprite in the bakery waved excitedly. "Your boat looks really nice!"
