Girl, you form the head.

Chapter 57 We can't really show it to him, can we?
In the hotel, Liuli Hui and Yanle had been anxiously waiting all night, but they still hadn't received any news and didn't know whether Bai Chi and Ju Feng had succeeded or failed.

"Did Officer Deng send you a message?" Yan Le had asked this for the umpteenth time tonight.

Ruri shook her head, and for what seemed like the umpteenth time tonight, she asked in return, "Where's your friend?"

Yan Le glanced at her phone and shook her head: "No, I hope nothing's happened to them."

She and Liuli Hui originally planned to go together, but Bai Chi thought that too many people would be a problem. If they couldn't win, the four of them wouldn't be able to escape.

Ah, if only the four of them could merge together.

But if they could merge together, wouldn't the three girls just stare at each other in the incandescent consciousness space?

Or the kind where they're not wearing clothes?!

That would be too embarrassing, so let's not.

Liuli Hui and Yanle were thinking the same thing at the same time.

And just then, the door was opened.

Hearing the commotion, the two immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and Yan Le even stood up to greet them: "You're finally back..."

Yan Le suddenly froze halfway through her sentence, because it wasn't Bai Chi who opened the door, but the police, and a whole squad of them at that.

"Don't worry, miss, we mean no harm," the lead police officer said gently. "It's just a routine check. Just show your identification."

Routine check?
What kind of checkup is needed at this time?
Yan Le was a little confused, but she still subconsciously reached for her ID in her pocket, but froze when she got halfway through.

Because the room wasn't booked by her, but by Bai Chi, and she never registered it at the front desk!

This is bad.

Yan Le subconsciously glanced at Liu Li Hui in the room, who in turn instinctively hid further inside.

Identification?

She's not from Nanluo, so where did she get her identification?

Seeing that neither of them could produce identification, the lead policeman narrowed his eyes: "Ladies, you can't produce any identification? In that case, we'll have to trouble you to come with us."

As she said this, Yan Le saw the two police officers behind her reach for their sidearms, and she immediately realized that this was no ordinary patrol.

But what should they do?
Assaulting a police officer?
Yan Le panicked a little.

But just then, a calm voice rang out from behind the police officers: "They are my friends."

The police officers immediately turned around and saw a young man, also in a police uniform, appearing behind them with another girl, carrying several bags of late-night snacks.

"Who are you?" The lead policeman frowned, but his expression changed again when Bai Chi handed him his identification. "Inspector Bai Chi...?"

The police officers who were about to draw their guns immediately lowered their hands, almost standing at attention.

"Yes, what's the problem?"

"No, it's nothing, we're just doing a routine check," the lead officer said hesitantly. "But Inspector Bai, shouldn't your jurisdiction be in Hanguang District?"

"Isn't this during working hours?"

"No, no, of course not. Where you go is your own business," the lead policeman said. "I'm just a little curious... are you sharing a room with these three ladies?"

“Yes.” Bai Chi nodded. “I was doing some research on special phenomena with them. I got tired of the research, so I just went downstairs to buy some food. Is there anything else?”

"...No, it's all clear now." After verifying Bai Chi's identification, the lead police officer immediately and respectfully returned it to Bai Chi. "We're sorry to have disturbed your rest, but if possible, please bring your female companion...I mean, your friend, to register at the front desk. Don't make things difficult for us."

Bai Chi nodded: "I'll definitely do it next time."

The lead policeman breathed a sigh of relief and then immediately led his men away.

Bai Chi watched the police officers leave, lost in thought.

"You're finally back. Are you alright?" Seeing the police leave, Yan Le immediately looked at Ju Feng. Seeing that her friend was fine except for a slightly flushed face, she breathed a sigh of relief. Then she asked Bai Chi, "Why did I feel like those police officers..."

“There’s definitely something wrong,” Bai Chi said. “Why did they have to come now of all times to check, and with so many people? I think the New World Society sent them.”

"The New World Society?"

“Hmm. They probably guessed that we were nearby, keeping watch on them,” Bai Chi said. “They just weren’t sure where we were or who we were, so they sent the patrol officers to check. Of course, there could be other reasons, I’ll investigate later.” Bai Chi paused, then looked up at the three very different girls in front of him.

"Alright, no matter what, Song-ki's matter is over. It's time to go back and rest."

……

An hour later, at the hospital.

Ju Feng sat beside Ju Lin's hospital bed, his expression somber.

"Don't worry," Yan Le, sitting next to her, said softly. "Uncle is just sleeping for a while, he'll definitely wake up."

"Thank you, Xiao Le." Ju Feng forced a smile. "Don't you need to go back and take care of your sister?"

"Don't worry, I changed my sister's dressing before I left and told her about what happened here," Yan Le said. "My sister also asked me to stay with you."

"Your sister is so gentle."

“Yes.” Yan Le nodded seriously. “She is the gentlest person in the world.”

The two looked at each other and smiled.

"How was it? I haven't even had a chance to ask you how the battle went tonight." Yan Le glanced at Ju Lin on the hospital bed and lowered her voice, "Did you get your revenge?"

"Of course." A satisfied smile appeared on Ju Feng's face. "I tore him to pieces."

"That would be so satisfying," Yan Le said with a smile. "Sooner or later, I'll tear those bastards who attacked my sister to pieces—no, I'll kick them to pieces."

“That day will come,” Ju Feng said earnestly. “It definitely will.”

"Hehe~ Well, thank you for your kind words." Yan Le chuckled twice, then let out a soft sigh. "If it weren't for Officer Deng, I probably would never have lived to see that day."

"Incandescent?" Ju Feng said softly. "Yes, thankfully he's here."

If it weren't for Bai Chi, her father would also... well, he wouldn't have been in any trouble?
For a moment, Ju Feng's mood couldn't help but sink a little.

Yan Le keenly noticed Ju Feng's emotional change. Not wanting Ju Feng to continue being downcast, she quickly changed the subject: "Speaking of which, Officer Deng is quite an interesting person."

"How to say?"

“When we first met him, didn’t we all think he was just a perverted sexual harasser?” Yan Le said with a smile. “It wasn’t until later that we realized he was actually a very good person, just that he occasionally did some outrageous things, which was quite a contrast.”

Ju Feng thought for a moment, then his expression turned strange: "So, his Knight System is like that too?"

"knight?"

"Yes, we may look like powerful and handsome armored knights on the outside, but inside we are... naked."

The two fell silent.

Looking at it this way, this knight really doesn't seem like a proper knight at all; the contrast is too great!

“Now that you mention it, it really does fit Officer Deng’s image.” Yan Le sighed. “I guess this is what they call ‘the face reflects the heart.’ People determine their unique way of expressing themselves, so… well, I can’t explain it. It’s really too strange.”

"But strange as it may be, Officer Bai Chi's Knight System is really powerful," said Ju Feng. "It's just that the way to improve his strength is too troublesome."

"How to increase strength?"

"Hasn't Officer Bai Chi told you yet?"

Ju Feng explained briefly, and Yan Le suddenly realized, "Oh, he did tell me, but not in such detail. It seems our bond with Officer Deng isn't strong enough. Why is that? We've already gone through life and death together, how can we increase our bond?"

"I had this idea before," Ju Feng hesitated for a moment before saying it, "You've probably heard that people can't imagine things they haven't seen..."

After the explanation, Yan Le's expression turned strange.

"While what you said makes some sense, it's just too weird," Yan Le said. "And we can't really just... give that to him... What's with that expression?"

After a brief moment of stunned silence, Yan Le's eyes widened instantly.

"Isn't it?!"
