Chapter 120 Lin Xiao: I won't pretend to be confused since I was a child!
"Fujimura" is a famous high-end barbecue restaurant in Saikai City.
The owner of the shop is from Ukisakura Kyoto. It is said that his ancestor was a chef for the shogunate. In his generation, he immigrated to Saikai City because he loved the sunshine of the Golden State.
This statement is not very credible, because businesses always like to use gimmicks, but the chef's skills are really good, and not long after the store opened, it won the star title of the "Gourmet Evaluation Guide".
The interior is a typical Ukizakura style, with decorative umbrellas, lanterns and calligraphy and paintings, and the tabletop is painted with dark red paint. The seating area is separated from the outside world by wooden boards and sliding doors. In the center of the tatami is a dining table and barbecue grill, and outside the pavilion is a normal height
Tabletop chair.
At this time, the store was crowded and noisy.
Operators were organized into teams, each sitting at a table, mingling with each other, drinking amber liquid from the cups, and releasing the fatigue and depression after the war.
Someone died in this incident.
People who may have been alive yesterday may have been swallowed up by the cold sea water today.
But all we can do is to muster up the courage and move forward.
Some people were chatting and laughing, drunkenly hugging their friends; some people were laughing a second ago, but suddenly choked up, lowered their heads on the table and cried loudly.
It is said that alcohol is a gift to mankind from Chaos, the "Lord of Time and Nothingness".
Because of it, human beings can forget their pain, live in the present for a short time, and not worry about the future.
A red-haired woman with one eye patch, sitting with a golden sword, looks like a gangster sister. Her table is filled with empty glasses, her cheeks are red, and she says incoherently:
"I was saved by the heavy sword man..., hiccup, so handsome."
Twelve hours have passed since the Theseus incident, and the shock brought by the "Epee Man" still remains in the hearts of every operator.
After all, Theseus is an irresistible super S-class monster. Even the seventh-level national warrior had to trade his life with it, but the heavy sword man killed it with one sword, which was so powerful and domineering.
The captain was a bold man and his wine was not good, so it was understandable why she suddenly confessed her feelings.
The black-haired girl took out her mobile phone, turned on the camera, and said expressionlessly: "Captain, say it again, I didn't hear you clearly."
In the camera, Hemlock's cheeks were suddenly close to each other, her cheeks were flushed, and she said loudly: "That epee man is my type!"
The corners of Hakoba's mouth quirked up.
When the captain gets married one day, he will blackmail her on the pretext of releasing the video at the wedding...
The grizzly bear was still wearing a helmet, and he opened the helmet's mouth upwards to reveal his severely burned skin. At this moment, he suddenly felt a chill.
Turning to look at the black-haired girl recording the video, Grizzly thought to himself, compared to the captain, Hakoba is the scariest one!
Hemlock slapped the table and shook the wine glass. The room became silent, and the clanging sound attracted the attention of other tables.
She winked back like a lioness, turned her head and shouted: "Why, you can't?"
"Of course." The deep and rich old man's voice said.
The commando team operator, the respected old man "Yamos", wears a handmade custom-made suit, has a gentle and elegant temperament, and has a strong physique like a suit thug.
Yamos had a scar on his face, his eyes flashed with deep light, and he calmly picked up the wine glass.
The old man respects him, not because he is a strong man, but because he is a hero.
"Respect the 'Epee Man'"
Yamos raised his voice: "Cheers!'"
The atmosphere in the barbecue restaurant froze for a moment, and a flash of fanaticism appeared on the faces of the operators.
Then, they picked up their wine glasses and shouted as if they wanted to let out all their inhibitions, their voices piercing the ceiling.
"To the 'Epee Man', cheers!!"
*
"Cough, cough!"
In the elegant room, there were two women, one man, a seal, and a "Munayin" sitting.
Chu Yun was wearing a bandage and a sling bottle, glanced sideways at Lin Xiao who was choked, and said, "Eat slower."
Lin Xiao shook his head.
It's not that he has trouble with food, it's mainly because the voices outside praising "Epee Man" are too loud, which makes him a little unable to hold back.
Now, he is just like Da Gu in the victory team, listening to the players praise Tiga... his mood is indescribably complicated.
Lin Xiao originally wanted to refuse this dinner because he had not slept a wink all day since the heavy rain landed last night and destroyed Theseus this morning.
But Lin Xiaoming was still an operator of the investigation team, so he had no reason to refuse, and since his "mediocre performance" in the war, he had no hope of using this operation to get promoted within the team and make a fortune.
Having said that, every time the monster appears, Dagu either crashes or disappears. It is already a miracle that he is not expelled from the victory team...
Although I was as sleepy as a koala, fortunately, the high-grade beef tongue was quite delicious. It was grilled to a sizzling oil, and the ice-cold sake was a highlight of "Fujimura" BBQ restaurant.
Among the special dishes, there is also Dafu’s favorite fish.
"Oh! (??)"
Dafu was busy destroying the top tuna, with two fish tails stuffed in his mouth at the same time, and he raised his head.
Ho ho ho, I had a premonition that there would be fish to eat tonight!
Eating fish is probably the little seal's biggest hobby...
While looking at Dafu, Lin Xiao took the opportunity to glance at the interior furnishings.
There were two rows of tatami mats, facing Brother Chu Yun. He came to team building with a hanging bottle, and his social spirit made those who heard it sad and those who saw it shed tears.
Next to him is a little secretary sitting with her knees up. On her left hand side is the push door, and on her right side is... a beauty with a high ponytail holding her chin in a daze.
There is a half glass of sake in front of her table.
Qiao Linna's innocent and delicate cheeks were stained with a layer of blush due to the mist, and the red face was stained with a layer of water mist. She held her chin, her lips were bright, and she was looking at Lin Xiao in a daze.
I had already had a hunch that he and the epee man were the same person, and now my intuition really came true.
What is the relationship between me and him...card master and funder? professor and student? What does he think of me?
Well, why should I care what he thinks of me.
I like...his motorcycle, isn't that enough?
His face is very similar to his father's face when he was young. He is very handsome and annoying. But he is difficult to...
Jolina hesitated for a moment, her heart pounding.
It's hard...not to be heart-warming.
Sigrid blinked and looked at Lin Xiao and Qiaolinna, who was holding her chin in a daze.
Oh, it’s the atmosphere of a workplace romance! Wait, Lin Xiao is a professor at Liandong University!
The little secretary's eyes were swirling, her head was dizzy, her cheeks were red, forbidden, forbidden love?
"I'm late." A mature woman's voice.
The screen on Lin Xiao's left hand side was pushed open, and the fragrance was blowing. The perfume she used was completely different from Sigrid's, like the difference between red rose and lavender. Jolina didn't use perfume. She was used to training, so she rarely put on makeup.
The red-haired woman stood at the door, her white shirt outlining her plump chest, and said with a smile: "I'm here to visit you first."
"Hello, team leader." Chu Yun nodded.
"Group, hello, team leader." the little secretary said hurriedly.
Jolina woke up from the wine, raised the cold red boy, reflected Margaret, nodded and said: "Team leader."
"Hello, team leader." Lin Xiao greeted.
Before she pushed the door open, Dafu's card had already been taken back by Lin Xiao.
Mainly, the fish eaten by Dafu is not included in the reimbursement list, just like "almost being caught stealing wine from a store".
Pushing the screen up with her backhand, Margaret said: "It's too noisy outside... If you don't mind adding a second bowl, please hurry up."
Lin Xiao was in a weird mood. What does this mean? The leader took the initiative and asked if he could have dinner at the same table with you? There is no "dialogue option box" for rejection in this situation, right?
Exchanging glances with Brother Chu Yun in front of him, Lin Xiao found that his eyes were equally complicated. Chu Yun said calmly: "Of course, you are welcome to do so."
The cutlery and bowls in the private room were quickly placed on the small table on one side of the room. There was no need to call the waiter. Before Lin Xiao got up, Margaret had already picked up the bowl and placed it on Lin Xiao's left hand side.
"It's not easy for the raven to move." Margaret sat on her knees, her buttocks pressed against her two black silk feet, and sat next to Lin Xiao, "I'll sit here."
Although Margaret is petite, there is not much space in this row of tatami, and it has already occupied Lin Xiao and Qiao Linna.
At this time, when filling in another person, Lin Xiao had to move to Qiao Linna on the right side so as not to touch Margaret on the left side.
However, because the dining table is low and the distance is close, the two arms will touch some indescribable parts whenever they move.
Crowded, cramped, stuffy, her body was producing hormones, and her heart was filled with a sense of crisis. Lin Xiao kept thinking about what she should say.
Even the little secretary already knew about it. Could it be that the team leader already knew that I was an "epee person"? Otherwise, why would she make a special trip to sit at our table?
Or maybe she is still in the guessing stage and has no conclusive evidence yet, so she wants to use this dinner party as a test?
If the federation traces my identity, it will inevitably be traced to the investigation team, which means Margaret has become my protective umbrella.
I really don’t need protection, but I don’t yet have the confidence to stand up to the entire federation on my own, so I can’t leave behind my background as an ‘investigation team’.
After all, the 'Investigation Team' is a global organization, a group force that the Federation cannot ignore, and it is an important way for me to obtain the power of the Demon God...
With his mind clearing up, Lin Xiao realized that tonight was the Hongmen Banquet, Xiang Yu was inviting Liu Bang.
Roman, the Federation’s ‘unparalleled national warrior’, could not trust him, so he had to be more wary of Margaret.
Stretching, also known as pulling. With the investigation team and the Federation, I will continue to stretch. The longer I stretch, the stronger I will become. I don’t know who will kneel down in the end!
The table fell into silence for a second. Qiao Linna turned her head and stopped looking at Lin Xiao, drinking sake by herself. Her drinking capacity was completely different from that of just now.
"This barbecue restaurant is very famous. Operators from the Golden State often come here when they have gatherings..."
Margaret stared at the empty plate in front of Lin Xiao's table: "Well, it seems the taste is not bad."
"Do you need to order anything more?" Chu Yun said, "I'll call the waiter."
This store is quite outdated. It doesn’t even have tablets or mobile apps. If you want to call the waiter, you have to get up and push open the screen. Maybe this is also part of the uniqueness, Lin Xiao thought.
"You don't have to move around." Margaret said with a smile, "Well, Lin Xiao has ordered enough...there is no need to call the waiter for the time being."
Lin Xiao hesitated to speak, but it was not because I ordered enough, but because the secretary ate so much and couldn't put it down, so she piled it here with me.
Looking at the little secretary who was blushing with shame, Lin Xiao decided to take the blame for her temporarily and threatened her to treat her to the ramen stall at the entrance of the base next time.
呲呲.
The barbecue was simmering on the stove, exuding an alluring aroma. From time to time, the staff's loud chatter and laughter could be heard outside the box, which alleviated the awkwardness at the wine table a lot.
Margaret held up her chin and said: "Thanks to you two for intercepting Dagon in this operation, Raven and Qingkui."
"This is what we should do." Chu Yun said.
"Your answer is exactly the same as Sarita. She is the best team leader of the investigation team... You are becoming more and more like her." Margaret said.
Under the table where no one saw him, Chu Yun quietly clenched his right palm and said, "Thank you... for your compliment."
Chu Yun also thought about leaving the investigation team, a place where he suffered heavy sacrifices.
He is a kind person with strong empathy and is often easily hurt in this world.
But he can't.
Sarita was his squad leader, his guide, the one who stopped Dagon from dying for him, and the one he... admired but could not say out loud.
Therefore, Chu Yun will always stay in the investigation team, which is regarded as a promise to Sarita.
"Where's Qing Kui?" Margaret said with a smile, "This commission is over, what reward do you want?"
"Yuan Chen." Qiao Linna said.
"Hmm... That's a good answer, concise and clear." Margaret's eyes covered her eyes, "However, you are a 'temporary worker'. Next time, it will be inconvenient for you to act with the special agent team."
Margaret certainly wants to recruit Jolinna into the investigation team, but her father, the real estate tycoon Mr. Jones, is a hurdle she can't get past.
In this case, it is not appropriate to let her get too close to the team members... The less things that are out of control, the better.
"Hey..." Jolina lowered her head and said, "The meat is going to be burnt."
The edges of the meat rolled up and gradually turned brown. Margaret reached out and picked up the barbecue tongs. With a calm gaze, she leaned forward to flip the barbecue and leaned towards Lin Xiao.
The distance was quite close, and his left arm could clearly feel the fullness and softness of the shirt on her chest.
Lin Xiao squeezed Qiao Linna on her right, almost arousing her annoyed gaze, and said calmly:
"I think Qingkui and our team work well together. The "3+1" model can be regarded as a pattern innovation. It can break the closed loop of the original ecology of the investigation team, seize the opportunity to achieve model iteration, and ultimately improve the investigation team's
The original link enables operator empowerment.”
Everyone was stunned.
Although Qiao Linna heard it in confusion, she understood to some extent that this guy was speaking for her. She picked up the sake glass and the red boy glowed slightly.
Like the real estate businessman, he uses the same annoying slang... Humph, he is a man who is always useful at critical moments.
The red-haired beauty looked at Lin Xiao with interest, holding her chin with her left hand, and smiled slightly:
"That's pretty good nonsense, Lin. So, what did you do in the 'Theseus Incident'?"
"I clearly asked you to lead the operation of the special agent team, but why was it that I didn't see you in the after-action report?"
The further she spoke, the colder her tone became, as if the fire was burning from Chu Yun to Qiao Linna, and it was burning brighter and stronger, and finally spread to Lin Xiao's head.
But Margaret's right hand was under the low table, and the little finger of her right hand touched Lin Xiao's left little finger lightly, seemingly intentionally. It was cold and soft, like a cat's paw that scratched her heart, or the catkins blowing in the face in spring.
Lin Xiao's scalp was numb, but because of fear. If it is said that the more beautiful a woman is, the bad-hearted she is, Margaret undoubtedly belongs to the ranks of bad women.
Her judgment could not be compromised by her actions. Lin Xiao picked up the wine glass with her left hand, her eyes twinkling.
She obviously wanted to trick me, otherwise she would have used her identity as an "epee man" to blackmail me.
The ambiguous movements she used to formulate words were an excellent signal, indicating that she still didn’t know who the “Epee Man” was, but I was the most suspicious!
What was her question? What did I do in this operation? I stepped on my horse and chopped Theseus to pieces!
But this time, you can't use jokes to get over it. There is definitely a sinister flag in the "dialogue box", and the correct answer is always the one that looks the most wrong.
"I'm fighting monsters." Lin Xiao said.
"In the 'Chimera Incident', you have already shown the level of a sixth-level grandmaster, right? Destroying the villa with one sword, the fighting method is very similar to the 'Epee without Edge'." Margaret pursed her lips and said.
"At that time, my trump card was only the fifth level peak, but now my trump card is the sixth level." Lin Xiao said.
His eyes were as usual, reflecting Margaret.
Margaret was smiling and her eyes were deep... He seemed to be really not lying?
The sixth-level grandmaster is indeed very impressive, but he is still a long way from killing Theseus!
"If you had told me earlier, I would have been more concerned about your promotion..." Margaret said, "So, as a grand master, what did you do in this operation?"
"I killed Dagon."
The wine table fell into a dead silence, and Sigrid's eyes suddenly became panicked, as if she had seen the dark figure in the video who killed Dagon with a sword.
"Oh?" Margaret asked coldly, "You mean, you have a heavy sword without a sharp edge?"
"What does it have to do with him?" Lin Xiao asked back, "I killed Dagon with my ace sword, why should I be counted on the heavy sword man?"
Yes, in order to explain why a grandmaster did nothing in this incident and deceived Margaret, Lin Xiao had to reveal information that was both false and true.
It was true that he killed Dagon while he was armed and possessed, but the traces of the fight were buried by the collapsed building, and it was a slum street with only one camera.
It was through this camera that Sigrid learned Lin Xiao's identity, and after chatting with Chu Yun, she immediately hacked the surveillance camera.
In heavy rain, more than one camera was damaged, and no one would care. The federal intelligence department only confirmed the offline address of the virtual cabin through IP. More accurate user information belongs to the category of "spiritual world" and is far beyond the ability of the federation to adjust.
Pick.
Because the scene of killing Theseus with one sword was so shocking, even the federal intelligence department didn't care who killed Dagon. Maybe it was the heavy swordsman who killed Dagon with one sword? Or which grandmaster-level operator? Super monster.
Strong, the card master who killed him is admirable, but he is not worthy of being taken seriously by the federation. And the heavy swordsman who killed super S-class monsters will give the federation a sense of crisis.
When he truly becomes the "unparalleled national warrior", he will have the capital to negotiate with the Federation and even crush Roman... Using the Federation's resources to develop and then slap the Federation in the face is equivalent to using the money to suppress bandits in exchange for Shiro's life.
"So, it was you who killed Dagon?" Margaret said, "Then why is it written in the after-action report that it was the heavy sword man who killed Dagon?"
"Because my trump card, playing style and source of power attributes are very similar to those of the heavy sword man, which makes people connect." Lin Xiao said, "Jolina was present at the time and knew that I was the one who killed Dagon."
"I" here refers to Lin Xiao, not the epee man.
Qiao Linna nodded slightly, she couldn't be more sincere.
The heavy sword man beheaded Theseus? And Lin Xiao beheaded Dagon?
"Really..." Margaret looked at the shrinking little secretary.
"I actually already know." Sigrit was a little afraid of the team leader, "I just didn't tell you... I want to discuss it with the team members..."
Margaret smiled.
"Don't be afraid. I'm always easy to talk to when it comes to remuneration... I will remember Lin Xiao's execution of Dagon. Thank you for your hard work... I'll let them continue serving the food."
She stood up and pushed open the screen, her eyes flashing slightly.
Lin Xiao is very similar to the epee man, but he is missing one thing...
He doesn't know how to pretend.
When he first joined the team, he joined the team to test and show off his strength. After several actions, he was more like a wolf joining the sheep herd.
His arrogant and high-profile style is completely opposite to the heavy swordsman who hides his head and shows his tail.
Yamos of the Assault Team, the nearly 100-year-old veteran, was said to have been the godfather of gangs in his early years, but he is actually a master of fakery...
As for who the epee man is.
It doesn't matter, no matter who he is, as long as he is in the investigation team, Margaret has the confidence to control her subordinates.
Margaret did not summon the waiter, but kept an expressionless face, put on a black windbreaker, walked through the noisy and hilarious seats, came to the back door of the barbecue restaurant, stood next to the roaring air conditioner, and took out a cigarette and a lighter
.
She lowered her head and stared at the dancing flames, leaned forward to light it, put the lighter back in her pocket, and looked up at the dark sky.
"Huh." Margaret was relaxing her facial muscles. Her smile just now was so beautiful, like a red rose in full bloom.
After wearing the mask for a long time, even you will feel strange when you take it off.
Margaret looked up at the sky, worried.
If you can't even control your subordinates... then why bother striving for greater power...
*
Lin Xiao and others were surprised.
Because the team leader actually returned to the wine table.
Everyone just thought she had finished her conversation and went to question the next table.
But she actually came back again, and this time she didn't smile. She asked the waiter for high-purity beer and high-grade beef, showing off her attitude of never getting drunk.
"Drink." Margaret said, "When you get up tomorrow morning, you will have to face the bloody casualty report again... You can only rest tonight."
Chu Yun silently accepted a pint of beer.
The team leader was right. Today is over. Tomorrow we will face not the sun, but the heartbreaking cries of countless family members.
By annexing the Golden State Investigation Team, the team leader took over not only the power, but also the cries, casualties, family pensions... everything.
This is the price of power.
When the party ended, Lin Xiao pushed open the screen, and there were a lot of agents lying around in the store. An old man was directing the sober agents to send them back safely.
This old man has gray hair on his temples and is wearing a suit vest with a suit jacket hanging on his arm. He has a gray beard and is elegant and calm. However, the scars on his face are particularly hideous.
"Assault team, Yamos." The old man nodded to Lin Xiao, "Nice to meet you."
Lin Xiao nodded in return.
There was a hand behind him hooking his shoulder. The red-haired woman's shirt was messy and she said in a lazy voice: "Keep drinking...Lin, drink together..."
Qiaolinna had a frosty face and passed by Lin Xiao indifferently. She was quite sober and prepared to ride a motorcycle to take Sigrid home.
Phew...a guy who is really popular with women.
But, I care about what he does... It's so troublesome. Let's prepare for the three-school league with all our strength.
After this operation, I gained the confidence to kill big time.
"Qiao Linna." Lin Xiao called the girl. "The team leader drank too much. Please take her back."
Although I don't believe that this bad woman drinks too much, and I am not an obedient subordinate, now is the time to compete in acting, Lin Xiao thought to herself.
Jolina stopped, thought seriously, and shook her head.
She was afraid that Margaret would continue to talk to her halfway... Lin Xiao played the role very well, and he would have to get through the next difficulties on his own.
Lin Xiao helped Margaret put on her coat, but she still hung it on her like a koala.
Abandon her directly? That's what a heavy swordsman would do. According to my current "gentle Asasi" character, I have to send her back.
What does this mean? After the Hongmen Banquet, Xiang Yu wants to drag Liu Bang back to his room? Lin Xiao thought wildly.
Brother Chu Yun was wearing a bottle and a bandage. He was definitely hopeless. Lin Xiao asked Yamos for help.
The old man helped him carry Margaret and said, "She trusts you very much."
"Trust?" Lin Xiao wanted to laugh a little.
The old man said: "People will show the greatest kindness to strangers, but they are always indifferent to the people around them... This is an old experience, please don't pay attention."
Yamos said: "Her 'home' is the desk of the Xingtu City Investigation Team, and now it is Xihai City... Just send her to the team leader's office."
Lin Xiao was stunned: "Doesn't she have a home?"
"If you are asking about relatives, there is indeed no such thing. She doesn't like to buy real estate, so she always sleeps in the office."
The old man put on his suit jacket and prepared to leave. He nodded and said, "Well, see you later."
Lin Xiao didn't know where his home was for a while.
The rental house in Star Map City was very nice, but it was not home. He only wanted to return to Central Continent, perhaps because it was the closest place to the "home" in his heart.
Or maybe there is no home for a long time, but he hasn't discovered it yet.
"Wait for me for a moment." He whispered to Jolina, "Let's ride a motorcycle together later."
Qiao Linna suddenly saw Lin Xiao's eyes.
It turns out that the eyes of the "Epee Man" can become very lonely in an instant. He obviously just killed Theseus in the morning and is a great hero admired by thousands of people, but now he is tired and like a homeless person.
tramp.
"Okay." Jolina nodded, "I'll wait for you."
Lin Xiao carried Margaret on his back and walked outside the store to reveal his motorcycle. Normally he rides a "Shock Rock", but when he transformed, he rode a "Buck Tooth". He always paid careful attention to this.
Seeing the red-haired woman hugging his waist, Jolina felt a little uncomfortable for a moment. When she thought of putting her on the motorcycle with her own hands, the feeling became even more complicated.
She is not the type to express her feelings in words, but since she promised Lin Xiao to leave together later, she will wait for him to come back.
Jolina watched the two people disappear at the end of the street and suddenly said:
"Sigrid."
"Ah?" the little secretary leaning on her shoulder said confusedly.
"Do you know... how to order a human room in a hotel?" Jolina said.
Lin Xiao carried Margaret on her back and walked into the office of Qiguai Baguai of the Xihai City Investigation Team.
Unlike the underground base in Xingtu City, the base in Xihai City is built on the ground. It is raining and windy outside the window, and a summer typhoon is about to land.
It is not a typhoon caused by Theseus, but a real tropical cyclone. Summer is a season with many typhoons.
The lights were dim, and the signboard for the emergency exit glowed green. Lin Xiao felt Margaret's weight on her back, and the breath of alcohol she breathed hit her neck, which was dangerous and fatally tempting.
Lin Xiao felt sympathy for her at an inappropriate time.
For just a second, he felt empathy with Margaret: neither of them knew where "home" was.
Fortunately, Lin Xiao had the Meteor Star Sword and great blessings...
The wind was blowing outside, and the rain was hitting the windows quickly. Only one day after Theseus died, another typhoon was about to land.
This is the power of nature, coming from the anger of Indra, the "Lord of Elements and Nature", but it is unclear whether this typhoon is aimed at humans or monsters.
Lightning flashed outside the house and thunder boomed. Lin Xiao heard Margaret whispering beside him in a very soft voice, and his scalp went numb.
"Lin Xiao...Actually, you are a heavy swordsman, right..."
She seemed to be talking in her sleep, smelling of alcohol, and her voice was low, like an old and scratchy CD. Her words made Lin Xiao a little confused.
What is her philosophy? At this point, she is still asking about the identity of the heavy sword man? Just because the heavy sword man is her subordinate, she has to be responsible for him?
If he were an ordinary operator, then Lin Xiao would be quite satisfied with such a boss.
But he was destined to leave the Federation.
Because he has to carry more people’s ideas and carry more people’s hopes.
"Ah, that's right." Lin Xiao said in a coaxing tone, "I will help you find the epee man tomorrow, and you can get some sleep first."
Margaret lay on Lin Xiao's back, hugging his neck, her eyes twinkling.
She wanted to confirm her guess, so she could attack Lin Xiao now and lock his throat with silk thread...
Of course, this means a life-or-death fight, and she is very likely to lose her life.
Why is this so?
His body is very warm, his appearance is my type, and he has the strength of a sixth-level grandmaster...
Margaret closed her eyes.
If I were not the leader of the investigation team, I would definitely pursue him boldly...
But I have to climb up.
Because once you stop, you will lose your "power" from the original height and you will fall into a deeper valley.
In the office, Lin Xiao turned on the light and saw a replica of the 'Nidhogg' oil painting hanging on the wall, trying to restore the furnishings of Star Map City as much as possible.
Lin Xiao put Margaret on the sofa, and the red-haired woman curled up unsuspectingly like a little animal.
Maybe she annexed other investigation teams, just like people buying real estate in other cities, it seems they can have more "homes". Lin Xiao thought.
"Do you want to do it?" Margaret closed her eyes, the eyelashes on her fair cheeks were long, and suddenly said, "On the sofa."
Lin Xiao turned off the light: "No, I have to go to work tomorrow. Good night."
The room fell into silence, except for the sound of wind and rain outside the window.
Thunder exploded and the rain became louder. The red-haired woman stood up from the sofa, with a hint of disappointment that could not be disguised in her eyes.
She has the habit of keeping a diary. Her enemies will be recorded in the diary, and she will delete them one by one after revenge.
Margaret walked to the rosewood table and sat down, opened a new page in the diary, and picked up the pen.
She hesitated.
The heavy sword man...the federal time bomb, the hero in the darkness, a tool on the road to power, or a stumbling block.
She originally wanted to write this, but it was very windy and rainy outside, and she had to meet with the families of the victims the next day, negotiate for pensions, and deal with people from the federal government and the investigation team headquarters.
Margaret looked at the disappearing figure and the water droplets condensing on the window. She felt that she was lost in loneliness. She wrote in her diary tiredly:
"It's raining in Xihai City."
