Everyone's become an adventurer, so who's going to put in the effort themselves?

At this moment, Cohen was also taken aback when he saw Fiona giving badges to her teammates.

Then, realizing something, he stepped forward, took the badge, examined it, and raised an eyebrow:

"People from the Fiona Mutual Aid Association?"

"Didn't your president strictly forbid you from doing this kind of thing?"

“Fiona Mutual Aid Society?” Lynn walked over, his expression turning cold. “So that’s it. You’re here to get revenge on me for that Luke?”

"Revenge?" Cohen looked at Lynn in surprise upon hearing this. "How did you manage to offend the Fiona Mutual Aid Association?"

At this moment, Lynn said with a displeased look, "Their people took on Jacken's mission and are now going against me."

“Ah, that…” Cohen scratched his head, looking somewhat embarrassed. “Well, you’re pretty unlucky.”

"Um..." Fiona, her hands cuffed, looked at the two awkwardly and said, "Can we talk about this at the law enforcement office?"

“Unfortunately, no!” Lynn sneered.

Seeing this, Cohen glanced at Lynn but didn't stop them. He simply beckoned his female teammate over.

"Take off her mask, register her, and then notify Fiona to come and pick her up."

"She can't even manage her subordinates! How can she be the boss of Dongcheng District?"

Fiona's expression froze upon hearing Cohen's sarcasm.

At that moment, a female team member immediately stepped forward to remove the cat mask from her face.

“Let me do it.” Lynn stepped forward eagerly, smiling as she said, “I’m also very curious about who is behind this mask.”

Fiona's expression froze: "Why are you curious about this?"

"You don't know what you've done?" Lynn looked at Fiona in surprise, then leaned closer and whispered, "You've defiled my innocence!"

Fiona's eyes widened suddenly: "Huh?"

At this moment, Lynn approached her again and asked:

"Excuse me, what do you look like?"

Fiona's tone was full of hesitation: "What... does this have to do with us?"

"It has something to do with your life."

Lynn said expressionlessly, completely ignoring the presence of the military police nearby.

Fiona asked in bewilderment, "How is my face related to my life?"

"If your face looks ugly, I'll kill you." Lynn said matter-of-factly, "If your face looks good, I'll wait and see."

"ha?"

Fiona stared blankly at Lynn, completely dumbfounded:

"Isn't this just pure lust?"

"Nonsense!" Lynn glanced at her and said irritably, "Do you think I'm as casual as you?"

"How can I be so casual?" Fiona asked in surprise.

Lynn asked in surprise, "Are you sure you want to ask me, the aggrieved party, this kind of question?"

Fiona fell silent.

Okay... she did go a bit too far just now, but wasn't that an accident?

Who knew her treasure-hunting skills would alert her that there was a treasure trove there!

What kind of treasure could be that thing?

At this point, Fiona, somewhat bewildered, said, "Can we still talk? I'm willing to pay compensation."

"Sorry, no!" Lynn said, quickly removing Fiona's mask.

When that face was revealed, an eerie silence fell over the room.

Even Ramy and Cohen, who were standing to the side, looked surprised.

"Such a pretty face~"

Lynn then scrutinized the girl's face and said strangely:

"Why don't you just go and date someone? Finding a man shouldn't be too hard for you, right?"

"Can I have some peace and quiet?" Fiona gave a bitter smile.

"It's alright, you can go to the law enforcement office to calm down later."

Lynn clapped his hands and congratulated Fiona, saying:

"Congratulations, you've passed the looks test!"

"You've escaped with your life."

As Lynn turned around, about to say something to Cohen, he found a group of people looking at him strangely.

"Huh? Why is everyone staring at me like that?"

Seeing this, Ramie glanced at Lynn, seemingly wanting to say something but then hesitated, before finally whispering:

“That… Lynn…”

"What is it? Tell me!"

Seeing this, Ramie said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry:

"Fiona probably won't be coming later, but the rest of the Fiona Mutual Aid Association will most likely be coming to demand her return."

"She's that powerful?"

Lynn pointed to Fiona behind him and said in surprise:

"That mutual aid society, are they going to risk their lives to protect her?"

Cohen paused for a moment, then nodded: "...The situation is roughly as you described."

Lynn suddenly realized something and asked with a strange expression:

What's her name?

Ramie gripped her staff, looking extremely awkward, and said:

"That's Fiona."

Lynn was speechless.

These days, the way a boss stands up for his underling is by harassing a grown man like me?

Girl, isn't this a bit wrong?

If you have that need, go to Rose Street! Why are you coming to me?

Chapter 45 How can you steal something that someone can see?

Rock Town, Law Enforcement Office.

Inside the prison.

Having just finished giving his statement and secured a face-to-face mediation opportunity with Fiona, Lynn smiled and said the moment he saw Fiona:

"Lamy, go get me the torture instruments!"

"How is it a torture device!"

Fiona, who had initially thought Cohen was giving her a chance to mediate when Lynn came in, immediately flew into a rage.

Her hair stood on end like a lion's mane, and she said angrily:

"Didn't you come here to negotiate terms?"

Lynn nodded upon hearing this, and then asked:

"What if my condition is that I subject you to torture?"

"So you just want to torture me?"

Fiona was stunned. How could there be a man like Lynn who wouldn't even talk to her and only cared about punching her?

Where did you come from to become a boxing champion?

"But why do I feel like you have a lot of opinions about me?" Lynn looked up at Fiona and asked curiously.

Fiona laughed in exasperation: "Isn't that obvious? You're about to torture me, how could I not have an opinion?"

"If you already have complaints, how can we possibly negotiate?"

Lynn said with delight, then turned to Ramie and said:

"Lamy, hurry up and get me the most powerful torture device!"

"I, Lynn, love to train tough guys like this!!"

"Hey! That's enough!"

Impatient Fiona said irritably:

"Just ask me what's wrong already, okay? I'll tell you everything, alright? Can you please stop torturing me like this!"

"Who sent you to cause me trouble?" Lynn asked calmly, regaining his composure instantly.

"Nobody asked me to cause you trouble. Aren't I planning to upgrade the mutual aid society into an association?"

Fiona raised her handcuffed hands, scratched her cheek, and said awkwardly:

"Doesn't the upgrade of the mutual aid association require a secret investigator to conduct a covert review?"

"Your affair with Luke is so strange, I assumed you were a secret investigator, and that's why I came to find you!"

"It's that simple!"

"No, it's not that simple." Lynn shook his head and said, "Someone like you who can start an association, wouldn't you have a way to verify whether I'm really a so-called secret investigator?"

"Don't make me laugh!"

Fiona then gave an awkward laugh, scratching her cheek as she said:

"I do have the channels, but they also think you're like an investigator!"

Lynn looked at him strangely now:

From which source did you find out?

"A guild? Or an intelligence broker?"

If it's a guild, the blunder quest that Jaken created, and the fact that he just became an adventurer, shouldn't be difficult for someone like Fiona to find out.

So, is the problem with the intelligence dealers?

“He’s an intelligence dealer,” Fiona said without hesitation. “Have you heard of Old Sid?”

"I learned from him that taking the secret investigator's ID card would allow me to pass the test directly."

"Wait a moment!"

Ramy, who had been standing behind Lynn, raised her hand and interrupted their conversation:

"Miss Fiona, have you misunderstood something?"

"What?" Fiona looked at her in confusion. "What did I misunderstand?"

Ramie took a deep breath and said, her expression somewhat unnatural:

"According to regulations, taking away the secret investigator's ID card does indeed allow one to pass the assessment directly."

"However, in the guild's eyes, this is a serious dereliction of duty and a sign of incompetence on the part of the secret investigators."

"According to the rules, investigators who lose their ID cards will be dismissed by the guild and prohibited from accepting assessment missions."

"Secret investigators are at least elite-level adventurers, and they're also core members of the guild. No normal person would advise you to do something like this, right?"

Fiona was stunned, and said hesitantly, "Is that so?"

Seeing that Fiona seemed unaware, Lynn frowned:
