Ark, after I died, the operators started to love me.

“When I was young, I learned some exorcism magic. I see this place has been marked by demons. Don’t look at me like that. You can rest assured that I am not a Sarkaz.”

A clueless gang member nearby asked, "What does this have to do with the Sarkaz?"

"Idiot, many people say that the Sarkaz can cast curses, so it's hard to guarantee that the boss hasn't been cursed by them."

Mike nodded in agreement: "How about it?"

The second-in-command shook his head: "I can't make that decision. You have to talk to our boss."

"No problem. Shall I go in directly?"

"No, just stand in front of the window on the left, and he will talk to you."

Mike thought for a moment and then made his request: "No one can stand next to me when I'm talking to your boss, but you can watch from a distance."

The second-in-command snorted: "Don't worry, even if the boss makes that request, no one will be willing to take the risk."

Hearing this, Mike understood a lot. The gang members empathized with their boss's plight, and many of the unfortunate guys were so frightened that they would definitely be very resistant to getting close to them again.

"Have someone drive my car in, and remember, no vandalism allowed."

Mike tossed the car keys to the second-in-command.

The man's actions were unpredictable. Coupled with their recent encounters with many strange people and events, they couldn't help but feel a sense of awe.

Mike walked confidently to the window and politely knocked twice. After about ten seconds, a voice came from the other side.

"who are you?"

"I'm here to help you."

"How should I trust you?"

"You just have to trust me."

Silence fell on the other side of the window.

Mike wasn't worried at all. Instead, he found a chair and sat down by the window, ordered a cup of instant coffee, and treated the place like a vacation resort.

"Okay, what do you want to know?"

The voice from across the window was weak and anxious.

Mike knew exactly what was going on. The gang leader had been trapped inside the building for a long time with no way to resolve the situation. He was extremely anxious and in a very poor mental state. He saw everyone as someone who could harm him, which was why he was acting so vulnerable.

"First, you have to tell me what you've been through before I can help you find the source."

"I don't know. Do you think I haven't thought about it?"

"Then think about it again."

Mike took a sip of coffee, put the cup on the ground, and closed his eyes.

He said softly, "I'm reminding you, you're an Ursus, you should have met some of your own people."

"what are you talking about?"

"Okay, think it over again. I'll wait for you."

In less than a quarter of an hour, he was actually snoring softly.

44. You actually cried for him.

Longmen Relief Home

The closed-door meeting convened by Lin Yuxia has finally come to an end.

The attendees left the venue one after another, carrying generous red envelopes and returning home satisfied.

As Hoshiguma led Yukichi away, she exchanged a few more words with Lin Yuxia, mostly about the need to strengthen controls on the outer ring road in the near future.

"Please rest assured, Inspector, the outer ring road will definitely not affect the city center."

Faced with Lin Yuxia's confident assertion, Xingxiong sighed: "Miss Lin, that's not what I wanted to hear. I know the situation in the outer ring very well, and the possibility of it affecting the city center is extremely small. What I mean is, you should pay more attention to that Boss Mike."

"Of course, I will have my people be as careful as possible. He is Colombian, and it would be bad if something went wrong and caused a diplomatic dispute."

"Miss Lin has considered everything very thoroughly, which puts my mind at ease."

Hoshiguma and Yukichi left together in a police car belonging to the Royal Guard Bureau. The driver was Hoshiguma's confidant, someone she had worked with on the streets many years ago, so she could trust him completely.

"Snow Pheasant, thank you very much for your cooperation today."

Little Liboli huddled in her chair, unsure how to respond even when Hoshiguma praised her.

"Inspector Hoshiguma, I've told you everything you asked me to say. Can you tell me, is Boss Mike really in trouble?"

"do not know."

Speaking of this person, Hoshiguma felt a little irritated. She took out a cigarette from her pocket again, put the one she had been biting earlier in her mouth, and unconsciously heard Texas's words. She silently put the cigarette back into the cigarette case.

All of Yukichi's remarks at the meeting today were prepared by Hoshiguma, with the aim of probing the opinions of others.

In theory, Hoshiguma shouldn't doubt her comrades, after all, they are good partners who have gone through life and death together on the battlefield, but when it comes to the safety of Lungmen, she has to be careful.

The result greatly disappointed Hoshiguma.

Snow Pheasant wasn't unaware of who the other person was; it was none other than Mike Ann, the owner of the auto repair shop. Little Liboli's vague answer to this question led Lin Yuxia to express a different viewpoint: despite the fact that many things were related to Mike, she insisted that Mike was just an ordinary person.

As for Texas, who held the same view, Hoshiguma didn't have much doubt, because Texas and Mike Ann's only point of contact was car repair, and there was no apparent connection between them.

The Rupert people, who are usually aloof and unwilling to have much contact with outsiders, would not possibly be so fond of a car repair shop owner.

What about Lin Yuxia?

Miss Lin's constant defense of Mike Ann made Hoshiguma very uncomfortable.

"Keep today's events a secret and don't go around telling everyone."

Xuezhi nodded. She knew very well that if the news got out, she would be finished.

Everyone present at the meeting was a leader of Lungmen. She was just a small researcher. If it weren't for the fact that she was a hero of destiny, how would she be qualified to sit at the table?

Actually, there is also a question about the snow pheasant.

Is she truly a chosen hero?

“Let’s talk about Miss Lin’s problem later. As long as Mike Ann doesn’t cause trouble in Lungmen, we can let him off the hook for now. He has made contributions to Lungmen. If Miss Lin hadn’t deliberately stopped him today, I would have really wanted to give him a Good Citizen Medal.”

Hoshiguma said something chilling in a joking tone.

The Guard Bureau's control over the outer perimeter is not as weak as one might imagine.

The people in the car fell silent, and Hoshiguma sighed quietly.

Old Chen, when are you going to come back? I'm really tired of being alone.

……

The words are divided into two parts.

Lin Yuxia finished packing her things and left the orphanage. Only when she reached the door did she receive news that was hard for her to accept.

Mike is missing.

The driver she sent to pick her up said the repair shop was open, but the person was nowhere to be seen.

How could this be?

We agreed to go to the theater together tonight, why did he run away?

Or did I act too hastily, alerting him, and then hide away again?

This was an answer that Lin Yuxia absolutely refused to accept.

The opportunity she had worked so hard for slipped through her fingers, and she wasn't sure if she would have another chance.

"Check where he went, see if he's nearby."

“I had already circled around the area once. Before I arrived, several black cars came to the repair shop, seemingly looking for someone as well. They, like me, found nothing.”

"Can we find out who sent the people by driving a few black cars?"

There was a few seconds of silence on the other end of the phone.

"Ms. Lin, this is a very complicated question, and I cannot answer it for you."

"Say what you can say."

A few seconds later, Lin Yuxia's face turned very ugly. She quickly hung up the phone, got into the car, and coldly uttered two words.

"go home."

No wonder she couldn't find anyone at the repair shop.

No wonder McAn is nowhere to be found.

It turns out someone beat them to it.

This person was none other than her father, the Rat King Lin Ge Rui.

No matter how intelligent Lin Yuxia was, she never expected her father to pull such a stunt against her.

After half an hour.

Zalak met the Rat King exercising in her own home.

The old man took off his coat, revealing a thin frame. It was hard to imagine how strong he had been in his youth. When he saw his daughter arrive in a huff, he simply stopped what he was doing, grabbed a towel handed to him by a servant, and wiped his sweat.

"Calm down, Yuxia, let's talk things out. There's no need to rush."

"Dad, your men went to that auto repair shop today."

"You mean this?"

The Rat King tossed aside the towel he had used to wipe his sweat, took the coat and draped it over his shoulders, reverting to his lazy demeanor.

“My people did go there, and you’re very well-informed.”

"why?"

"For no reason other than wanting to see him."

Lin Yuxia said excitedly, "But you shouldn't have used such a violent method."

The Rat King asked, puzzled, "Was it very intense?"
