Since Qin Qingzhou had no objections, the bureau chief couldn't say anything.

Once Qin Qingzhou completes the formalities, Afu will officially become a member of their family.

For the next few days, Bai Zhizhi was so happy that she stayed by Afu's side constantly.

As soon as school was over, he would drag Ah Fu around the police station to patrol their territory.

Qin Qingzhou, in a way, got some peace and quiet.

The security guard turned his head and saw Bai Zhizhi and Afu Shen looking up at the same time, standing on duty at the guard post.

The little guy imitated his usual manner, placing one hand on his trouser leg seam and holding Afu's hand with the other, his eyes fixed intently.

This attracted passersby to take photos.

"So cute!"

"Whose child is this? They're standing so well."

Bai Zhizhi felt very happy to be praised.

The security guard was both amused and exasperated: "Zhizhi, are you tired? If you are, let me take over."

"Knowledge is never tiring!"

"If you know it's not tiring, why don't you help your uncle with patrols?" The security guard came up with an excuse to lure her away.

"patrol?"

"Yes, the police station compound also needs to be patrolled, and it's good that you're with Afu."

That makes sense!

Bai Zhizhi pulled Afu down from the pavilion: "Uncle, take good care of yourself on guard duty. Zhizhi is going on patrol!"

"Afu! Forward march! One, two, one!"

"Woof!"

A man and a dog walked in a crooked, unsteady gait, and began to wander around the yard again.

After finishing her work, Qin Qingzhou prepared to take Bai Zhizhi home, but after searching around, she finally found her outside.

"Bai Zhizhi has left."

"No, no, Zhizhi still needs to patrol here!"

Qin Qingzhou lifted her up without any hesitation: "Have you got your job wrong?"

"Waaaaah, Uncle, you big bad guy! Watch me defeat you!" Bai Zhizhi flailed his limbs in the air.

"Your job is to help us solve cases, not to patrol. Look how tanned your face is."

"Is that so..." She fell into thought.

Qin Qingzhou took the opportunity to lead her home, and they ate dinner downstairs before going home.

Bai Zhizhi ate too much and walked unsteadily, like a little penguin.

Afu stayed right next to her, its tail never coming down.

Qin Qingzhou walked behind, his eyes always on the man and the dog, a heartwarming scene he had never experienced before.

As if possessed, he took out his phone and snapped a picture of their backs.

Under the moonlight, little Bai Zhizhi waddled along, her long shadow connecting her to the ground. Afu's tail swayed in her direction, and in the shadow, it looked as if they were holding hands.

When the photo is opened, a live feed is automatically generated, accompanied by Bai Zhizhi's adorable laughter.

Qin Qingzhou chuckled, lowered his head and set this photo as his screensaver. After thinking for a moment, he set another ugly selfie taken by Bai Zhizhi from a terrible angle, which he had taken while fiddling with his phone, as his WeChat profile picture.

After doing all this, he turned on the video recorder, recorded a video of the little penguin walking, and posted it to the "We Are a Loving Family" group.

His dear parents replied almost instantly.

[Shen Yanlan: Oh my, my grandson is so cute! He's not even as tall as a dog yet. Grandma gives him kisses~]

[Qin Anshi: What time is it? Why are you still outside? The child needs sleep, take him home to sleep. If you don't have time, we can take care of him.]

[Qin Qingzhou: @Qin Anshi's Dad, isn't it only seven o'clock?]

[Qin Anshi: I don't care, it's just too late.]

[Qin Qingzhou: It's already six o'clock when the kindergarten activities are over]

[Bai Zhizhi: (A selfie taken from an extremely blurry angle using a phone watch)]

[Shen Yanlan: So cute, baby~ Are you video chatting with Grandma?]

Qin Qingzhou put down her phone and shouted at the little kid in front of her who was fiddling with his phone watch, "Walk properly and stop playing with your watch. Go home and video chat with your grandma."

"Yay!" Bai Zhizhi grabbed Afu and ran off, "Let's go home!"

In the end, the video call didn't go through. Bai Zhizhi went home and fell asleep. Ms. Shen Yanlan waited for several hours but didn't receive a call. Finally, Qin Qingzhou recorded a video of Bai Zhizhi sleeping soundly, and only then did Ms. Shen Yanlan reluctantly go to sleep.

The next day, Qin Qingzhou picked Bai Zhizhi up from kindergarten, and everyone in the bureau discussed going out for a buffet together.

He gets all excited when it comes to eating for free, and he stops patrolling, staring wide-eyed at the group of adults.

"Auntie Hehe, what is a piglet meal?"

Lin Yuhe patiently explained to her, "A buffet means you can eat whatever you want in the restaurant."

Bai Zhizhi's eyes lit up: "Does that piglet meal include Han babies?"

Lin Yuhe thought for a moment, then realized that the restaurant they were going to seemed to have it: "Yes, they do."

"Great! We can feed them as many piglets as we want! Zhizhi loves the piglet meal!"

Just then, the security guard led in a girl, a girl everyone knew.

"Captain Qin, Captain Xu, Bai Zhizhi, they're looking for you."

"Miss!"

Upon closer inspection, everyone realized it was Song Qiu.

Song Qiu was wearing her high school uniform, clearly having just finished school. She had her hands behind her back, hiding something, and looked embarrassed and unwilling.

Xu Shan adopted a gentle, older sisterly demeanor: "It's you. Are you feeling better?"

Song Qiu nodded awkwardly: "Okay, I'm already at school."

"That's good, what about the other children?"

"Everything is ready now."

Although Song Qiu often seemed awkward and distant, Bai Zhizhi knew she was a good person. She had helped him first last time and was a good older sister.

Adults usually refer to this awkwardness as puberty.

Qin Qingzhou didn't know how to chat with the little girl, so he kept quiet and let Xu Shan do the talking.

"Is there anything we can help you with this time? We'd definitely be happy to assist you."

"No." Song Qiu scratched her cheek, revealing a corner of something behind her.

It looks like a red thing.

"Well... my sister asked me to bring you some things."

Xu Shan: "What should I give?"

"This..." Song Qiu showed what was behind her.

There were actually three silk banners.

"This is for you, sister; this is for you, brother; and this is for Bai Zhizhi." Song Qiu's face was already flushed after she finished distributing the banners.

Xu Shan was overjoyed and was about to open it.

Song Qiu quickly stopped her: "Could you open it after I leave?"

"What's wrong? It's nothing, I'll look at it now."

Xu Shan unfurled the banner, and Song Qiu was utterly ashamed.

The banner reads:

[Do you believe in light? No! We believe in the people's police!]

Qin Qingzhou also unfurled the banner:

[My husband saved my sister's life! Amazing!]

What Bai knows is:

[Five-star rating for Fairy Boy ★★★★★]

Qin Qingzhou and Xu Shan: "?"

Xu Shan: "This is..."

Song Qiu covered her face: "My sister insisted that I give it to her..."

Is your sister, this big star, really going for an abstract style?
