Didn’t I just take a nap?
Any other problems with sleeping?
After calming down, Chen also stabilized his mind and stared into Talina's eyes: "No strange people came to knock on the door this morning, right?"
A weird person? Do you count?
After hearing Chen's question, Talina subconsciously glanced at the door lying on the ground, and suppressed the urge to complain, and answered honestly: "No."
That Sarkaz must be deceiving me...
After getting the answer from Talina's words, Chen suddenly felt a surge of anger in his heart, but after thinking about it, he restrained himself.
The opponent had a bomb on him. Even if she didn't lie to herself, she and Xingxiong alone would not be able to do anything to him. Once the opponent started to explode indiscriminately, it would cause much more trouble.
The most important issue now is to catch the other party as soon as possible, rather than being furious here.
But before carrying out the arrest... you have to get your own affairs in order first!
Thinking of this, Chen glanced at Talina who was sitting on the bed rubbing her eyes with her hands, and with a wave of his hand he lifted her up from the bed.
"Eh?! Huijie, what are you doing?!"
The feeling of weightlessness caused by her body suddenly being lifted into the air made Talina panic. Chen grabbed her collar from behind and she stared at Chen with an innocent face.
From the beginning till now, Chen has been talking to herself, so she is still confused.
"Pack your things quickly..."
Putting Talina on the ground, Chen briefly described to her what happened this morning, while urging Talina.
"Explosion? Sarkaz? What the hell is going on..."
Although Chen's description was a bit confusing, Talina still obediently followed his instructions and started to put away her clothes.
"Oh right! Later on, you're going to talk to that... girl called Muir Seth? Tell her not to come back here for the time being. I remember she's from Rhine Life, right? She's much safer there!"
Looking up at the time, Chen turned around and reminded Talina.
"Oh."
Looking up at Chen, Talina realized that something was wrong and quickened the pace of packing her clothes.
After a while, the clothes for changing were packed. When Talina was about to leave with Chen with her bag, Chen suddenly stopped her.
"Wait a minute! Put these things on!"
Reaching out and grabbing the back of Talina's collar, Chen put the coat and baseball cap he had just prepared on Talina, and also put on sunglasses and a mask.
By the time the transformation was complete, Talina had become a tightly wrapped dumpling.
Without waiting for Talina to protest, Chen took Talina's luggage in one hand and carried Talina in the other, and left the house swiftly.
Although this is the city center, who knows? The other party might get angry and want to die together.
In the eyes of these desperadoes, there is no distinction between time and place, they will kill people when they feel like it!
"Sit tight!"
Putting Talina on the back seat, Chen rode the new motorcycle parked in the yard towards the Guard Bureau.
After all, compared with the cars modified by Texas, the cars provided by the Guard Bureau are still slightly inferior, otherwise Penguin Logistics would not have so many violations.
After speeding back to the Guard Bureau, Chen didn't take a moment's rest. He carried Talina back to his office.
Although he attracted a lot of attention along the way, Chen didn't care at all.
"Old Chen, what is this?"
In Chen's office, Xingxiong had been waiting there for a long time. Now when he saw Chen come back, he hurried forward to have a good discussion with her.
But after seeing the object in Chen's hand constantly turning into pupae, the 1.8-meter-tall ghost was so scared that he took several steps back.
"You...did you kidnap someone back?"
Only after Xingxiong saw clearly that what Chen was holding was actually a person did she stand back in her original position.
She thought it was some oversized insect and kept putting it on the cricket pupa...
"Let's stay here for the time being. It's not safe over there."
After exchanging glances with Xingxiong, Chen took off the hat covering Talina's head, freeing Talina who was feeling suffocated.
"Hello, Star Sir..."
Tarina greeted Xingxiong weakly, and with her head covered in sweat, she sat lazily on the sofa beside her.
"Hello... No! Lao Chen, what's wrong with you?"
Out of politeness, Xingxiong subconsciously greeted Talina, but when she reacted, she suddenly looked at her colleague with horror.
Isn’t this the “little nanny” that Chen Zhao hired?
How did Chen bring me here?
Recalling Chen's panicked look before, Xingxiong's mind automatically filled in the missing part of the plot.
Could it be that!
Or did you take action?!
"What are you thinking... It's not safe over there. I'm just bringing her here to hide for a few days. I'll bring her back when this is over."
Rolling his eyes, Chen scoffed at the plot his colleague had imagined.
She has a clear conscience! How could she be afraid of these dirty words?
Besides, she wasn't hungry, so how could she possibly attack someone around her?
"That makes sense..."
Chen's explanation was a bit pale, but Xingxiong still believed his good friend for the time being.
Well, temporarily.
"What's the situation? Did the riot squad find anything?"
After finishing the matter with Talina, Chen quickly got into the state and discussed the explosion with Xingxiong.
She left in a hurry, and the subsequent handling of the misconduct was left to Xingxiong and Shi Huaiya. Now that she is back, she naturally has to take over.
"No, the bomb squad did not find a second bomb at the scene other than the initial one."
Shaking his head, Xingxiong glanced at Talina.
Is it really okay to talk about things in front of outsiders?
Xingxiong really wanted to ask Talina to avoid such occasions, but when he thought that it was Chen who brought her here, he took his words back.
"You guys chat, I'll take a nap first."
After noticing Xingxiong's gaze, Talina tactfully took an earmuff and put it on her head, then turned over and slept on the sofa.
She chatted with Muirseth and the others until so late yesterday that she was already very sleepy. In the morning, she got up despite her sleepiness to make breakfast for Chen. After taking a nap, Chen gave her a surprise again.
Now is a good opportunity to catch up on some sleep.
Seeing that Talina was so understanding, Xingxiong smiled with satisfaction: "We also checked several surrounding houses and found no clues."
"That means they had just arrived when we went there. Looks like we were lucky... What should we do next? Did they tell us what to do?"
After understanding the general situation, Chen nodded.
The situation is clear. There are no other casualties except Rupert. We just need to find the Sarkaz and everything will be solved.
But therein lies the dilemma.
The incident happened at the junction of the slums and the outer city area, which is an awkward location. If the Guards wanted to intervene, the people in the slums probably would not agree.
Chen is no longer the young and naive person she used to be. Now she has to consider more things.
"Commander Wei hasn't given us any instructions yet. He just told us to withdraw temporarily and comfort the surrounding residents."
After telling Chen the order he had received, Xingxiong found a seat and sat down, looking at Chen with strange eyes.
"Old Chen, if you wanted to protect her, wouldn't it be better to just send her home? Why bring her to the Guards?"
Xingxiong asked curiously as he raised his chin and pointed at Tarina who was sitting on the sofa.
The threat from the Sarkaz was nothing to her, a lonely person. Logically, Chen should have done the same, but the fact was that Chen brought the nanny who rented with her to the Guards Bureau.
Why go to all this trouble when you can just send them home? And you're also bringing unfounded rumors to your name.
She didn't believe that the Sarkaz would chase after Casimir.
"She... just ignore her. The situation is very complicated and it's hard to explain it right away."
Looking in the direction of Talina, Chen rubbed his temples with a headache.
She was also curious about why she brought Talina to the Guard Bureau.
Volume 5: Chapter 73: A Moment of Leisure
Just as Xingxiong said, sending Tarina home is the best option.
This is Longmen's business. There is no need to involve a Casimir person in it and become her weak spot. It will only do harm and no good.
But for some reason, Chen subconsciously bound Talina to his side. When the Sarkaz threatened him, the first person Chen thought of was Talina.
As for why, Chen himself didn't know.
She had too many worries, too many to count. She was used to cutting the Gordian knot, but for the first time she began to calm down and analyze things seriously.
After seeing Xingxiong off, the office returned to silence.
The explosion case was temporarily shelved, and Chen was not sure whether it was handed over to Lin Yuxia or somewhere else.
Anyway, before Wei Yanwu spoke, the case seemed to have disappeared out of thin air.
"I'm really impressed that you can sleep."
Sitting in his seat, Chen supported his chin with his left hand, looked at Talina who was sleeping soundly on the sofa, and shook his head helplessly.
While everyone was busy, Talina rested peacefully.
"It's almost afternoon..."
Looking up at the time, Chen found that almost six hours had passed since the incident.
Does time pass so quickly?
Drumming his fingertips on the table, Chen debated whether or not to wake Tarina.
It's time for dinner now. The canteen of the Guard Bureau is open at a fixed time. If you want to eat after this time, you will have to rely on luck.
Looking at the sleeping Talina, Chen could not make up his mind to disturb her.
"Forget it... I'll just go outside and buy something later."
Shaking his head, Chen gave up on waking Tarina.
Listening to the subtle and even breathing sounds beside his ears, Chen suddenly felt sleepy, but it was working hours now, so Chen could only suppress his sleepiness and sit in the office.
It's rare for her to have free time like this. Usually at this time, she would either be running around outside or looking through those old cases.
Now that she has some rare free time, she is actually a little uncomfortable.
"I owe..."
Rubbing his eyes with a wry smile, Chen stood up from the sofa, walked to the side of the sofa, and looked at the sleeping Tarina.
There is no difference between Tarina when she is sleeping and her usual self, she is just as quiet, but her sleeping posture... is really not good.
Looking at Talina's sprawled sleeping posture, Chen couldn't help but cover his forehead.
It was the first time she saw Talina like this.
Bending down and squatting beside Talina, Chen gently pulled her limbs back to where they should be.
Looking at Talina's peaceful sleeping face, Chen suppressed the idea of leaving.
The sleeping Talina was like a little animal, which made Chen Sheng want to tease her, and she did so.
Placing his right index finger on the tip of Talina's nose, Chen gently scratched it.
Talina, who was still asleep, noticed something was wrong. She muttered something and waved her hand to hit Chen, temporarily forcing him to retreat.
Chen reacted very quickly and withdrew his hand. Looking at Talina who was still mumbling strange words, the corners of his mouth rose.
