As they spent time together day and night, Chen Ye slowly discovered a terrible fact, that is, he seemed to be unable to live without Talina's care.
To put it simply, she has been spoiled by Talina, and her life will be a mess if she leaves Talina.
No one would prepare breakfast before she got up, no one would do her laundry, and no one would give her a sweet welcome home when she got tired from get off work.
Chen Guang, who had long been accustomed to Talina's care, felt uncomfortable in his heart as if something was blocking him when he thought of the scene of Talina leaving.
Maybe it's an answer, maybe it's a question, but Chen himself doesn't know what it is specifically.
"Talina?"
Chen, who was hunched over his desk, suddenly called out, as if confirming something.
"What's wrong, Huijie?"
Talina, who was playing on the other side, raised her head in confusion and looked towards Chen's position.
Following Talina's gaze, Chen Ye slowly raised his head and met her eyes.
When their eyes met, Chen saw confusion in Talina's eyes, while Talina saw peace of mind in Chen's eyes.
Chen smiled lightly and lowered his head: "Nothing."
Just wanted to see if you were still there...
fortunately...
Just still here...
.........
Three days passed, and while following Chen to work, Talina also learned some things about the white-haired Ursus.
The other person's name was Misha, from Ursus, and had previously lived in Chernobyl.
Misha was originally a normal person, but unfortunately encountered a natural disaster during the Chernobyl riots, which made her infected and fled to Lungmen with the refugees.
But this is all the information we have about Misha. Apart from her name and background, she doesn't mention anything else. When asked, she just says she doesn't know and keeps a tough talk.
In desperation, Chen had to arrange a luxurious private room for the other party in the detention center for him to live in.
Incidentally, Misha’s neighbor is Ansuo.
Ever since he suffered a loss at the hands of this Ursus, Ansuo has always remembered the grudge of being tied up like a dumpling, and he would take some time every day to tease Misha.
Fortunately, Ansuo only took advantage of Chen with his words, which did not attract Chen's attention.
Misha still needed to take the initiative to ask about the existence of the glass key, and Chen could only slowly nudge her around, trying to pry something out of her mouth.
The other party was a stowaway and was carrying such precious things with him. Chen didn't believe that there was no trick going on.
.........
Slums, houses with hidden locks.
The rickety house still stands here, with its broken door panels, leaky walls, and half-broken beams, all telling what has happened here.
"Are you sure you're here?"
Coming out from the ruins on one side, Mephistopheles looked at the broken bones squatting in front of him.
This place is shabby and no different from other places. There are many places similar to this place in Longmen slums. Why did you choose to find this place?
"Weren't you there when we were gathering information earlier? There have been signs of fighting recently, and someone has seen Misha here."
"And the note from the Imperial Guard. I know all that, so you don't need to repeat it."
Mephisto raised an eyebrow after Bonebreaker's words. "Your poor sister is probably locked up. What do you think? Do you want me to accompany you to attack the Guard Bureau right now?"
"Bring your people in first. The Rat King is not a vegetarian."
Ignoring Mephisto's teasing, Broken Bones picked up a piece of tattered cloth from the ground and put it in his pocket. He then stood up and said, "The key to Chernobog is with Misha. If she is captured, the key will also fall into the hands of the Guards. This line is broken. Let's carry out other tasks first."
After saying that, Broken Bones took out a map and checked the directions.
"If you ask me, we should just take down the Guard Bureau. The herds are lurking all over the slums now. We just need to lure the Guard Bureau out."
Mephisto was a little unhappy when he saw that Bonebreaker did not agree with him.
Apart from Tallulah and Faust, he didn't care what anyone else thought, except Kosice, of course.
He was very upset that Bonebreaker openly disobeyed him, but because of Tallulah's order, he couldn't get angry.
"Frost Star is on her way here, and that crazy mercenary is also active outside Longmen. With them here, taking down the Guard Bureau won't be difficult!"
Not giving up, Mephistopheles still tried to persuade Boneshard.
If I can take down the Guards Bureau in one fell swoop, it will definitely be a great achievement, and then I will be able to repay Tallulah's kindness!
"Are you planning to start a war on behalf of the Reunion? Don't forget what you promised Tallulah when you came out!"
Hearing Mephistopheles' slightly crazy tone, Broken Bones, who was leading the way in front, couldn't help but shudder and secretly called him a madman in his heart.
I had only heard that this guy was mentally ill before, but I didn't expect him to be so completely crazy!
The two of them went to attack the Guards Bureau?
I'm afraid he's crazy and wants to die!
Once this kind of war-level battle is triggered, it cannot be stopped just by wanting to!
"It's just talk, don't take it to heart..."
After hearing Bonebreaker bring up Tallulah, Mephisto stopped instilling his own ideas and instead laughed it off. As for how much truth there was in his words, only he knew.
Seeing that Broken Bones ignored him, Mephistopheles did not feel embarrassed and continued to talk to Broken Bones.
"Then where do we go next?"
"No. 88, Taiheng Road."
"where is that?"
"A mansion of the Yan Nation's noble Chen family in Longmen."
"You want to kill the nobles in there?"
"..."
Broken Bone didn't answer, but just led the way silently. He didn't want to talk to this person whose mind was full of killing.
Having brought trouble upon himself, Mephistopheles gave up the idea of trying to please someone who was not accepted by him.
The two men wandered around the slums, exploring the area clearly and settling the herds of cattle that arrived later here.
After it got dark, the two of them rushed towards Taiheng Road where their target was.
After disguising themselves, the two men changed their appearance and transformed themselves into two thugs that could be seen everywhere on the streets of Longmen, wandering around the streets in a nonchalant manner.
Wearing his ill-fitting clothes, Mephistopheles tugged at his collar uncomfortably. "I'd just go ahead and kill them. Why all the pretense? It's all unnecessary."
Ignoring the arrogant thug, Broken Bones quickened his pace.
Fortunately, the two of them are now playing the roles of gangsters, and what Mephistopheles said is consistent with their identities, so other people on the street didn't pay too much attention to it.
A motorcycle came from the distance and passed by the two of them at high speed, just like the other cars, without stopping for a moment.
However, Talina, who was sitting in the back seat, seemed to have discovered something and turned around in confusion.
Strange... I always feel like I have seen those two people somewhere... Did I remember it wrong?
Volume 5: Chapter 117: Chen: My house was robbed?
"What's wrong? You look distracted?"
After returning home, Chen looked at Talina's dull eyes and raised his hand to pick her up from the car.
Even though Talina had resisted many times, she had no intention of changing. Over the past few days, Talina had become accustomed to this way of getting along.
"Nothing. I just saw two people on the road. I felt like I had seen them somewhere before. Maybe I was mistaken."
Shaking her head, Talina put the scene she had just seen behind her and stopped thinking about it.
There are quite a lot of similar people in this world. Maybe I was just seeing things.
After entering the house, the two washed their faces and brushed their teeth skillfully, acting as each other's partners tacitly. After everything was ready, Talina climbed onto Chen's bed.
As a senior inspector of the Guard Bureau, Chen's monthly salary is enough for her to squander, so she never treats herself badly in this regard.
Following Talina's footsteps, Chen also turned over and lay down.
As soon as Chen Gang touched the bed, Talina, who was still in a daze, seemed to have received some signal. She crawled over like a cricket pupa, hugged Chen's hand, and rested her head on it.
"Don't get so close to me, it's hot!"
With a look of disgust on his face, Chen pushed Talina, who was leaning towards him with a shameless face.
"Hehe~ Time to sleep!"
Faced with Chen's disgust, Talina remained unmoved and buried her head in the pillow.
Seeing that he couldn't push forward, Chen had no choice but to be "forced" to accept Talina's joining.
It was late at night, and Chen Xing had been too busy all day to play with Talina. After comforting her with a few words, he prepared to close his eyes and go to sleep.
But as soon as she closed her eyes, Talina asked her a question, waking her up again.
"What about Misha?"
"What do you mean?"
Chen opened his eyes in confusion and looked at Tarina who was sleeping beside him.
Why did they suddenly bring up this topic? She remembered that Talina and Misha weren't on very good terms, right?
"Just curious, she looks like an ordinary civilian..."
Faced with Chen's questions, Talina spoke out her inner thoughts without any hesitation.
During these days at the Guard Bureau, Talina was not idle either. She either went to chat with Ansuo to find out the situation or went to Misha to try to help Chen get some information.
But no matter what she said, the Ursus girl just huddled in the corner, buried her head in her knees, and didn't say a word.
On the contrary, Ansuo would have to quarrel with her neighbor twice a day before she could feel happy.
From the conversation between the two, Talina could also feel the inferiority and fear in Misha, an emotion she had only felt in the infected people in the guerrillas before.
The confusion and helplessness of entering a new environment, the malice of strangers around her, and the doubts about herself all made Misha resist all communication with the outside world.
On the contrary, it was Ansuo who was able to say a few words because of his connection with Misha.
"Immigration and unregistered infection—those two charges alone are enough to keep her in the detention center for two months. And that strange key, suspected of smuggling, could add several more years to her sentence."
Chen flicked Talina's forehead with his finger and pinched her nose. "Please put away your kindness. Her identity is suspicious, and her hands and feet have traces of the Ursus military. This forces us to be cautious."
"knew..."
After hearing what Chen said, Talina could only shut her mouth.
She is a person and has nothing to do with the interests of Longmen, so she can jump out and watch how things develop from the side, but Chen is different. She is a senior inspector of the Guard Bureau and is responsible for the safety of the citizens of Longmen. For this reason, she has to be cautious.
After solving Talina's problem, Chen fell into a deep sleep while holding the slightly lost Talina in his arms.
Three o'clock in the morning.
beep! ! !
The cell phone that Chen placed on the bedside suddenly made a shrill noise, waking Chen up from his sleep.
"Tsk!"
Chen, who was a light sleeper, smacked his lips in annoyance and immediately woke up, picking up the phone from the bedside.
"This is Chen, what's going on?"
After answering the phone, Chen lowered his voice to a minimum to avoid waking up Tarin who was sleeping soundly next to him.
"Old Chen, something happened here."
Xingxiong's voice came from the other end of the phone, but it was a little... strange, sounding like he hadn't woken up yet.
"Just tell me what happened, don't waste time."
After hearing Xingxiong's voice, Chen jumped up from the bed with a start, picked up the clothes placed aside and was about to put them on.
She understood that Xingxiong was not the kind of person who would joke. Since the other party said something happened, it must be true. There was no surprise.
"That... um... is..."
