After handing the intelligence chip made of a deer head to Russell and destroying all the snacks in Russell's refrigerator, Bad Day left with satisfaction.
It was said that he was helping Russell to investigate the information about the bad guy's father. He was told to give him about three days first.
Bao Ri repeatedly promised that the orders he had already taken would be completed.
But after all, he is not a life-threatening killer, and he will definitely give priority to ensuring his own safety when performing tasks - which makes Russell more and more curious about what he did before the bad day to become "the most vicious criminal in the world."
Could it be that he killed a certain director and then caught him after his memory was inherited?
...Then why is he still so confident in his ability to hide the truth?
There's no way he could have exposed it himself, right?
"This dog is too good to eat..."
Russell looked through the refrigerator and exclaimed.
Just sitting here chatting for less than an hour, all my snacks were emptied by him.
He drank two bottles of Coke and also drank two bottles of yogurt!
"I have to go stock up...and make some food to eat."
Russell grimaced, thinking about what to eat.
It's still a long time before evening, but I don't have to work in the office in the afternoon... What should I do?
It was just noon when Russell returned to Tian'en District after finishing his business with the bad guy.
——It’s dinner time, why shouldn’t you treat yourself to a meal?
...It turns out that Russell still overestimated the emotional intelligence of the inferior.
Just when Russell was thinking seriously, if the inferior asked himself what to eat, should he eat barbecue, steak or hot pot...
The bad guy drove Russell all the way home.
He didn't pay attention to this matter at all, but gave Russell a half-day off - saying that since he went to the reconstruction facility with him in the morning, he didn't have to go there in the afternoon. If there was a task, he would do it for Russell.
…Then you can’t throw me into the restaurant?
After dinner, I will go for a walk by myself!
It can also help you digest food.
In fact, Russell still felt that maybe the inferior felt a little unbalanced when he saw him playing in the office every day while he was running around helping the execution department in the field. So he simply let him go home and rest.
Although the bad guys also said to Russell, "Since you know how to use the disc board, you can help the minister share some of the work pressure."
And Russell also thinks this is quite reasonable...compared to running missions on the front line, he is much better at psychic hacking.
But when Russell asked, Delphinium was very opposed - she didn't think her work was very busy and she needed Russell to share it.
Then Delphinium touched Russell's head and let him play games. He even gave Russell his untouched milk that had cooled down.
As for the bad guys, they didn't dare to drag Russell to carry out the ministry's aid mission.
Because the Lower City area is too dangerous. Not only would Delphinium scold him, but the bad guy himself wouldn't trust Russell there... After all, the Veil of Ignorance is still watching the bad guy.
Although the bad guy is not afraid of death, he is worried that he will kill Russell. Therefore, if Russell is around, he will act more cautiously and not be so crazy. Invisibly, he will lose a lot of deterrence.
As a result, after pushing and pushing things like this, Russell became a bastard.
He doesn't even know what he is doing every day, but he is getting money.
——This money is very empty.
But it’s also very cool.
"But what should I have for lunch today..."
Russell murmured in a low voice and looked through the review software for nearby stores.
He doesn't have a driver's license or a float car, and he doesn't want to take the subway or the float train.
"Let's take the store that can be reached within a twenty-minute walk as the standard... huh?"
At this moment, Russell suddenly received a communication request.
After he picked up the call, he found it was Delphinium's video call.
"Russell, have you had lunch?"
The minister who was eating outside asked with a smile.
"Not yet," Russell's voice subconsciously became clearer in front of Delphinium, "Still looking for something to eat."
"Then come here. I'll treat you to dinner."
With that said, Delphinium sent an address.
...Hey, what's going on?
The minister who squats in the office and eats takeout every day is actually going out to eat?
And he even invited me to dinner...
Russell hesitated, but saw that the address was indeed a pretty good restaurant.
It's not a place where you can't get enough to eat, like a cafe, but a barbecue restaurant with a good reputation. The ingredients are fresh and the dipping sauces are also very good - he doesn't even look at the lettuce buffet. After all, Russell eats barbecue.
Never wrap vegetable leaves.
Therefore, Russell was still moved.
It just so happened that he hadn't changed his clothes or taken off his shoes when he came back - Russell set off immediately and jogged all the way to his destination. The distance that usually took more than twenty minutes to walk was reduced to less than ten minutes.
After arriving at the place, Delphinium had been waiting there for a long time.
She was holding a cup of ice-cold fruit tea and drinking it with a happy expression on her face, and her fluffy tail behind her was swaying briskly from side to side.
After seeing Russell approaching from outside the door, Delphinium waved to him without being particularly ostentatious. She just continued to drink juice and raised her hand towards Russell without leaving her right elbow from the table, with her fingers spread naturally.
.
"Yo!"
Russell imitated Bad Day's tone and said hello.
After he got close, he gave Delphinium a high-five.
"—pop!"
The clear high-fives obviously made Delphinium stunned for a moment.
Then she couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Why would someone's first reaction be high-fives..."
"Look, that hand is right there..."
Russell sat across from Delphinium.
He also suddenly felt that he was a little rude, but he still said stubbornly: "How can I resist taking pictures!"
"You don't look like a cat, you look like a dog."
Delphinium smiled and said: "More active than cats."
"I just thought you were so quiet..."
When Russell said this, he paused slightly and stretched out his right hand with his palm upward: "Then what do you think of when you see this?"
"Shake hands."
Delphinium naturally placed the fingertips of her right hand on Russell's palm: "I am a dog."
The slender fingers tickled Russell a little.
When Russell put away his hand in embarrassment, Delphinium stretched out his hand and held Russell's hand generously.
She gently pulled Russell and asked him to change seats: "Sit next to me."
"……good."
Russell's ears couldn't help but twitch when his hand was suddenly held gently.
He stood up obediently and sat across from Delphinium to her right side.
After he sat down, Delphinium handed Russell a glass of hot milk.
"Stop drinking Coke and drink milk."
She whispered: "Coke is not good for your health."
Hearing this, Russell clamped his tail with some guilt and his ears drooped.
"……belch."
Russell got nervous and couldn't help but burped.
He actually just finished drinking a bottle of iced Coke before going out...
Blame it on the bad day!
He was grabbing Coca-Cola over there, and drank half the bottle in one gulp.
Looking at Russell, he felt that if he didn't drink it, he would drink it all, so he quickly drank a bottle too.
"...Why are you so nice to me?"
Russell couldn't help but ask.
Delphinium thought for a moment and replied seriously: "Because you are cute."
"ah?"
"You are the cutest co-worker I have ever seen."
Delphinium said with great certainty.
Then she added: "Not only does he look cute, but he also has a personality. A child with a kind and gentle personality like you, let alone the Special Enforcement Department... even in the entire Happy Island, I'm afraid there aren't many.
"You also know. Those who can spontaneously awaken their psychic powers and enter the Special Execution Department are basically people who have suffered great trauma. It can be said that everyone is only one step away from degenerating into a demon. It's just that the blue shift value is relatively high, so
I didn't lose my rationality even if I persisted until I entered the Special Execution Department.
"Everyone has some psychological problems to some extent. They are not normal people... they are like bad people, or even better people."
"...Do you also know about the bad guys?"
Russell couldn't help but ask: "How much do you know?"
"all."
Delphinium said softly.
Her tone was gentle and calm, like a whisper before sleeping: "It's not just the bad ones. Those who have been sacrificed or fallen...I also know all their pasts."
As she said that, she looked at Russell seriously.
Those light blue pupils made Russell look fascinated.
He quickly realized his rudeness, so he lowered his eyes and looked away.
"I'm really surprised."
Delphinium nodded with satisfaction, and then whispered: "It has been more than a month since you came here. You have killed people and demons, and you have also met your former colleagues who turned into demons... But
You seem to be mentally stable."
Hearing this, Russell suddenly understood.
Why did the delphinium suddenly pull itself out to eat?
It turned out that she felt that after she went to see "Hibernation" and saw the reconstruction mechanism, she must know the life experience of the inferior, and maybe also the situation in winter... and then she would have random thoughts.
She was worried that Russell might be under too much mental stress. So she caught Russell in advance and did not give him time to think. She wanted to enlighten him as soon as possible.
...No wonder the bad guy respects her so much. He came much earlier than Delphinium, but when he followed Delphinium's orders and accepted Delphinium's scolding, no resistance was seen.
If everyone in the Special Execution Department has to receive Delphinium's psychological treatment... then she is indeed the well-deserved head of the Special Execution Department.
But just then.
Russell couldn't help but asked subconsciously:
"Then Delphinium...how did you awaken your spiritual power back then?"
In fact, he regretted it as soon as he said these words.
Russell analyzes other people's habits, allowing him to instinctively explore the other person's psychology.
But usually he would endure this kind of unclean desire, but when he met Delphinium's eyes, he was a little distracted, so he subconsciously let out his true thoughts.
However, Delphinium doesn't seem to have much objection to this.
She just smiled helplessly: "Sure enough, I guessed it right...one of your most uncontrollable desires is curiosity."
However, Delphinium did not hide anything from Russell.
Realizing that Russell wanted to know the answer to this question, she carefully organized her thoughts.
Under Russell's gaze, she slowly opened her mouth and said softly:
"I'm different from the inferior. I don't have a painful background like him, nor do I have the lofty ideals of Dongri... I'm just an ordinary person. A truly ordinary person.
"My father is a worker and my mother is a writer. My family background is neither good nor bad. My academic performance is average, probably in the top one-third of the class. It is an ordinary school, and there is nothing outstanding in it.
I am a genius, so I can only be regarded as an average person. I usually don’t like sports. I just like to read books at home, play games, read comics, animations and novels, and occasionally watch comedy shows or variety shows...
"Such ordinary days lasted until I was sixteen years old."
Delphinium murmured: "For the first time in my life... I killed someone."
This was the first time since Russell saw Delphinium that her face had lost its calmness and peace.
Revealing such strong wavering, sadness and regret.
