It's the cyber age now, and you're still playing traditional villains?

As for whether He Laosan would suspect him or whether he would hold a grudge against him, Xu Shi didn't care.

He didn't believe that He Yuqiang had never suspected him. Such a thing happened just after he got the things, and anyone would notice it.

But what can he do after knowing it? For He Laosan, he has no better choice than himself at the moment, not to mention that in his current situation, it is hard to say whether others are willing to stick with him.

And when a person's survival becomes the top priority, all he can do is usually submit.

Besides, what basis do you have to say that I did it? Suspicion alone is far from enough. Show me the evidence. Do you have it? I guess you don't have it.

This also applies to the Inspection Bureau, or in other words, at least until now, Tang Shuang has not suspected him of the attack and has not asked a single question.

After all, when the warehouse in District 13 was attacked, the Warframe appeared as a character standing on the opposite side of the "Snake Ring".

In addition, from her point of view, what good would it be for Xu Shi to send someone to rescue Lei Song? It seemed that there was none... Later, he personally executed that guy in front of her.

Under such circumstances, she naturally put Xu Shi's priority at the back, and still followed her previous idea and identified the suspects as Sin City and the remnants of "Starfire".

This is the effect you want.

Xia Wuyou was sent to have Director Tang accompany her to kidnap the witness. The two had fought before, so she must have had the deepest impression... Not to mention that the others were all borrowed from Ding Jun, and they were indeed gang members from Sin City.

This invisibly distanced him from the matter even further.

By the time Tang Shuang finds out the truth, she might have already fallen into his hands.

After all, the kind-hearted President Xu never forgot to bring Tang Shuang to his camp.

It is said that the Inspection Bureau is the dog of the six major financial groups. Although this is a joke, it is not entirely wrong. Even if there is a stubborn person like Director Tang, he has to make compromises in many cases.

That's too troublesome. It's much easier to be a dog for me than for the six big conglomerates.

The reason why the previous chip deal had given her such a sweet treat was for this, whether it was to enhance the relationship or to raise her expectations... and after experiencing this attack, his importance to her would inevitably increase.

At least the things that she was hesitant about before must have been more or less shaken now because of this - as long as this premise is in place, things will undoubtedly be much simpler afterwards.

How about giving her some extra fuel? For example, give her some elbows in the subsequent cooperation... or something simpler, find an opportunity to plant some seeds for her?

If it is impossible to get the entire Inspection Bureau, it would be great to take her down first. After all, her strength is there. Who would not like an A-level "Upgrader" young woman?

I am indeed a bad person... Xu Shi played with the cup she gave him, chuckled and shook his head.

at this time.

Tuk-tuk-tuk.

There was a knock on the office door.

When I opened it, it was Xia Wuyou. She came to report the previous situation.

"Thank you for your hard work."

Xu Shi stood up and took her hand, "How is it? Are you hurt anywhere?"

“…It’s fine.”

Faced with such an action, Xia Wuyou was a little embarrassed for a moment, and turned his head away embarrassedly, "I'm not injured... I completed the task you assigned to me very smoothly."

"That's good."

Xu Shi smiled and nodded, pulling her to sit on the sofa, "But you must be tired, why don't you take a good rest first?"

Her complications were simple: fatigue and exhaustion caused by physical overload - many "upgraders" had complications of this kind, including Ye Shanshan.

"Oh."

Xia Wuyou responded, then leaned closer to him intentionally or unintentionally.

After what happened last time, her level of degeneration was almost full, and Shen He no longer had any sense of existence in her heart... For her now, the most pleasant thing was to become a sword in Xu Shi's hand and let him do whatever he wanted.

She didn't want to consider whether it was right or wrong.

Sometimes when she thought about it alone, she even felt a little guilty towards Xu Shi. After all, the other party had done a lot for her that was difficult to repay, but she almost stood on the opposite side of him in the beginning.

Now I think about it, I shouldn't have been so naive before, because that kind of thinking is...

This was the reason why she still seemed evasive when facing Xu Shi.

But to be honest, Xu Shi's embrace was more comfortable than obeying him.

So she behaved very awkwardly, and her cautious look was totally unlike her usual self.

"If Team Leader Xia has any requests, it would be better to speak up."

This little action could not be hidden from Xu Shi's eyes, so he took the initiative to lift Xia Wuyou's chin and spoke with interest.

"……hold head high."

Xia Wuyou paused, thinking that he must have done it on purpose, knowing that she was embarrassed, but still insisted on saying it herself...

But her physical desire made her unable to hold back. Finally, she lowered her eyes and stammered, "Then, hug me...can you?"

Xu Shi smiled and held her in his arms, watching her fall asleep peacefully in his arms.

Sometimes he also found it interesting that although Xia Wuyou looked slender, she actually worked out a lot as a field team leader. She was a fitness beauty and was hard most of the time.

But when she was in his arms, she became soft again.

Can we only say that women are really made of water?

Xu Shi couldn't help but laugh and gently pinched her face.

……

After using Xu Shi as a human-shaped pillow for two hours, Xia Wuyou finally woke up slowly, feeling indescribably satisfied.

Not to mention that his image was all that was on her mind just now when she was half asleep. She really didn't want to think about anything else except this.

"Yes, can you accompany me to visit my aunt?"

She shook her head, and finally sobered up a little. "She was talking to me before, saying that she hadn't seen you for a long time."

"Oh?"

Xu Shi raised his eyebrows, "Miss An, do you have anything to ask me?"

"do not know."

Xia Wuyou shook his head, "She won't tell me if I ask her."

"It seems I still have to go?"

Xu Shi smiled and sighed, still keeping the secret... "So are we leaving now?"

"…Wait a little longer."

Xia Wuyou blinked and held his arm tightly.

She wanted to enjoy it a little longer and savor the aftertaste of what had just happened.

It's really becoming more and more like a kitten.

Chapter 103: Auntie, what’s wrong with you?

When Xu Shi and Xia Wuyou arrived at the hospital, Xia Ke'an was sitting in a chair reading a book.

The white-haired loli was wearing a hospital gown and a pair of white socks. Her feet were dangling in the air and she was humming a little tune. She looked very happy.

"Long time no see, how is Miss An recovering?"

They look so cute with such a lovely look... Xu Shi thought to himself that their family's genes were truly extraordinary, and both the aunt and niece were first-rate beauties.

"Huh? Director Xu is here?"

When he saw Xu, Xia Ke'an put down the book in his hand and replied with a smile, "Thanks to you, I feel much better now."

This can be seen. She can now run and jump on the ground without even needing anyone's care. Xu Shi has also looked at the hospital's medical report. The relatively minor complications have been mostly alleviated, and some difficult and complicated diseases are also being slowly cured. Everything is moving in the right direction.

"That's good. I hope Miss Ke'an will recover soon."

Xu Shi nodded, sat next to her and chatted, "Miss Ke An seems to like reading very much?"

He had noticed it before, but he never asked about it.

"Yes, I have always had this hobby."

Xia Ke'an smiled and said, "Reading can calm your mind, and most of the time there's nothing else to do."

In the City of Night Crime, there are indeed not many people who can really sit down and read books. Workers are so busy that they are dying. If they really want to have some free time, eating, drinking, having fun and playing "God's presence" are their first choice. Even if they can just read on a reading bracelet, paper books are considered to be an obsolete product in this era.

It’s not that there isn’t a library, but the flow of visitors has always been at the bottom. The biggest news about it in recent years was that someone slept with someone else’s girlfriend in the library. It caused quite a stir and the whole Night Sin City went crazy about it.

I'm afraid the only people who still have interest in this and are able to devote time to it are people like the white-haired loli.

It is also a proof that she was once a lady from a noble family.

Xu Shi sighed a little, then got to the point, "By the way, Team Leader Xia asked me if Miss An has anything to talk to me about?"

Xia Ke'an did not answer, but tilted his head and blinked at Xia Wuyou.

"……Know it."

Xia Wuyou reacted, turned his face away and muttered.

She is actually a little resentful. Is there anything that we three have to talk about privately? Can't I listen?

But she listened to Xia Ke'an, and now she listened even more to Xu Shi, so she had to reluctantly avoid them and leave them some private space.

This can also be considered a kind of obedience... She used this excuse to numb herself and felt more comfortable.

Alas, another poor child with no hope.

"You finally have time to come see me?"

After sending her niece away, the white-haired girl immediately put on an expression of grievance and resentment, "I thought you were going to kidnap Wuyou and abandon me."

"Stop, stop. It sounds like the truth."

Xu Shi looked as if he had seen a ghost. "Auntie, what's wrong with you?" If others heard it, they would think I had done something to you... But I dare not say anything nonsense.

Moreover.

"If I really didn't care about you, would I come as soon as Team Leader Xia said so? That's enough."
