“What do you mean?” I didn’t quite understand.
“It means you are special, super-duper special, so special that everyone wants to take a bite out of you.”
Eww..
How disgusting.
I thought disdainfully.
Then I licked the corners of my mouth again.
If anyone wants to bite me, I’ll bite back.
I have two mouths, hee-hee.
“So we might have to re-evaluate your rating,” Qu Le said, pulling out a tablet from a drawer and swiping with his finger.
“Rating?” So I actually had a rating.
“Yes, your previous designation was XX-0863. You know what that means, right?”
“Hee-hee 0863?”
Lu Xiu covered his face, “I really taught you for nothing.”
“It’s Innate Spirit-Fierce Beast Class, do you understand?”
“Fierce Beast?”
What’s that? Is it edible?
“You don’t know your own identity?” I shook my head.
Lu Xiu’s mouth twitched.
“Then what do you still remember?”
“Hmm…” I tapped my index finger against my lip, thinking, “I am a good person! And… apples are delicious… also that strange place, Kuyan Fire Village is also tasty, that seems to be it… ah, I still have a mother! A person.”
“Mother… I wanted to ask last time, you are a Fierce Beast, where would you get a mother from?”
“What are you talking about, I am a human! You are the Fierce Beast.”
I retorted to Lu Xiu’s words.
Lu Xiu looked at Qu Le, the latter shrugged: “This is the reason I told you she was special in the first place, her mind always thinks she is a—”
“Is a good person. I strongly corrected.”
“Fine, fine, a good person.” Qu Le complied with my opinion.
This made me very satisfied.
“Then about what I told you before, that place Sui described, are there any clues?” Lu Xiu spoke.
“Because the Old Urban Area is under renovation, our investigation is also not ideal, if it’s urgent, I’ll divide some approximate ranges for you, you can go take a look.”
“Okay, send it to me later.”
After finishing the call, Lu Xiu did not leave, but instead took me to sit down in Qu Le’s office.
“Why haven’t you left yet?”
“Refuge.” Lu Xiu was brief and to the point.
”……But I have to work.”
“We won’t disturb you, I promise not to look around.
“Me too.”
I covered my own eyes.
But it felt like Qu Le still seemed a bit dissatisfied.
It was quite happy being a stumbling block here.
Unfortunately, Qu Le eventually kicked us out in the end.
I think he definitely wanted to watch Magic Girl Wululu.
With nothing to do, we could only wander around the Yingdui Si.
There weren’t many people in the Yingdui Si, most were out on missions, the rest were generally on standby or from the Logistics Group.
“Yo, Captain Lu, so much leisure today, coming to the bureau for inspection even on a rest day?”
A relatively young-looking man greeted Lu Xiu.
“Ran into some bad business, don’t mention it.” He sighed.
The man’s gaze subsequently fell on me following behind Lu Xiu, “This is… your Hound, right? Why is there only one Restraint Ring?”
“I am Sui! The Sui from Peaceful Years.”
Hounds or whatever, it sounds so bad.
“Alright, alright.” He shook his head and laughed.
“If she wears too many, she makes a fuss, I found it annoying so I took them off for her.”
Lu Xiu spoke, glancing at me.
“Is that so…… won’t it violate the bureau’s regulations?”
The man was somewhat puzzled.
“She has already passed the test. “
“I see.”
What test?
How come I don’t know?
But Lu Xiu didn’t explain either, we sat on a long bench against the wall, I swung my calves, looked at my small leather shoes, and then kicked one off.
Pa—
The shoe drew an arc in the air, landing steadily in Lu Xiu’s hand.
Looking at Lu Xiu’s rapidly darkening face, I immediately spoke: “I didn’t do it on purpose.”
“The shoe wanted to run into your hand on its own.”
“How many times have you used this set of rhetoric?”
I wasn’t sure.
“Sigh… why can’t you be restless even during break time…”
He sighed, grabbed my swinging little foot, and put the shoe back on.
“One must sit with proper posture.”
“What is proper posture? It’s not edible.”
Oh.
Ending this inexplicable conversation, I leaned against the wall, opened my mouth, watched the dust fall into my mouth, and smacked my lips.
Lu Xiu was scrolling through his phone on the side.
I blew air with my mouth, blowing my bangs away.
Lu Xiu changed his posture and scrolled his phone.
I stuffed the hair from the back of my head into my mouth and chewed.
Lu Xiu’s action of scrolling his phone paused.
So boring…
Thinking to myself, I subconsciously wanted to gnaw on my toes, but a hand pressed my foot down faster than I could, it was Lu Xiu.
“What do you want to do?”
“Gnaw on my toes.”
“Here?”
“Here.”
“Is there a problem? ”
“I’m wondering if I should put the Restraint Ring back on you.”
“Eh?” My eyes widened, I quickly shook my head, “No no, I don’t want to wear it!”
“Then don’t perform these inconceivable actions.”
“Inconceivable?”
“It means words, actions, or phenomena that leave people confused and exceed common sense.”
“Don’t understand. ”
“If you just quiet down, one cup of Kuyan Fire Village.”
“Received!”
I immediately sat upright, my feet no longer swinging, my waist no longer bent, staring at the air with piercing eyes.
He let out a sigh and continued swiping on his phone.
But before long, I couldn’t hold on anymore.
So boring…
I really want to eat apples, drink Kuyan Fire Village, eat Ketchup Demons, eat Fried Chicken Demons……
“Yawn—”
I let out a long yawn, and then lay in Lu Xiu’s embrace.
“Hey, what are you doing?”
“Then don’t lean on me.”
“No, pillow.”
I closed my eyes and began to sink into dreamland.
“I’m really at a loss with you.”
In a daze, I seemed to feel my posture being adjusted a bit, becoming more comfortable.
Just like that, accompanied by the boring Hakimi music and the faint scent of grass on Lu Xiu, I narrowed my eyes and showed a peaceful sleeping smile.
This sleep lasted for most of the afternoon.
When I woke up, Lu Xiu was also leaning against the wall, his head tilted back, snoring loudly.
I really want to give Lu Xiu a slap, he’s noisy and disturbed my sleep.
But I was also afraid there would be no food, so I could only pout and get up from him.
Rubbing my eyes.
Yawning.
I kind of want to go to the toilet.
I stood up, wobbling toward the hallway, looking for the bathroom.
When passing by Qu Le’s office, the sound of Magic Girl Wululu was still coming from inside.
It was very quiet outside the window.
The sound of traffic, the honking of horns, and the noisy sound of people.
The dim yellow light shone into the room from the window, cut into several orange-red light spots of different sizes on the ground, and as I moved, they also seemed to move forward together.
Finally, I stopped in front of the bathroom.
Lu Xiu said that the men’s bathroom and the women’s bathroom are different.
But no matter how I looked at it, they seemed the same.
Just then, footsteps suddenly came from behind, followed by the crisp sound of a gun bolt sliding and a bullet being chambered.
“Don’t move.”
