Talulah, I'm still a child.

Now, several years have passed, and Mei Xue is not sure if Jenny still remembers her, or if she is still at home. In the letter she left before parting, Mei Xue pointed out a still clear path for her. After becoming a soldier in Victoria, she has probably been away for a long time.

"Mei Xue!"

Before the door was even opened, Qin Liu's voice reached the little fox's ears. He was a little stunned. The next second, the wooden door in front of him was smashed through by a delicate but powerful fist. Now, not only would he not be able to open the door, but he wouldn't even need to lock it anymore.

"Sister Jenny?"

Four years later, Jenny has become even more beautiful and elegant, and her figure is so good that Rosemary hates Mei Xue so much she wants to bite her. However, how should I put it, Mei Xue subconsciously feels that she wants to devour her. Even Cecilia was so scared that she hid behind Mei Xue.

"...Mei Xue, it's been a long time."

From the moment she learned of the little fox's whereabouts, Jenny had been prepared for this day. She knew she would definitely see Mei Xue again, but she didn't expect her reaction to be a bit too extreme.

The door, which had been physically opened, finally collapsed to the ground. The little fox gently comforted Cecilia, telling her not to worry, and then lovingly opened its arms to hug Jenny.

"It's been a long time, sister."

The familiar scent and the embrace reminded her of how Mei Xue used to relieve the stress of the day every time she came home. During that time, Jenny was busy with the honor guard assessment. She was exhausted from training during the day and had to prepare for the exam at night. Mei Xue's appearance was like a ray of white moonlight in the dark night, making her fragile and tired heart feel a happiness she had never experienced before.

"No, sister, don't cry."

Tears dripped onto Mei Xue's fox ears, and the little fox had to stand on tiptoe to reach them and wipe them away. Cecilia watched this scene and felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

She never had such complaints when she was on Rhodes Island. When Mei Xue played with everyone, she easily became like a plush toy, being pinched and squeezed here and there. Being used as a pillow was commonplace for her.

But ever since that nightmare, Cecilia has become even more dependent on Mei Xue. He's her brother, so why is he hugging another woman?

Cecilia didn't understand; she was too young to comprehend these things. But she was a sensible child and wouldn't disturb this heartwarming meeting. She simply reached out and grabbed Mei Xue's tail, feeling much more at ease.

"Alright, alright, your sister is so old and she's still crying. People will laugh at her."

Mei Xue helped Qin Liu wipe away her tears, then let go of her embrace and took Cecilia's hand. The little angel's mood improved, and the halo above her head shone even brighter.

"Big sister, this is my little sister~ Her name is Cecilia, she's very cute!"

As she spoke, Mei Xue seemed a little proud, as if Cecilia were her own sister. However, Jenny knew Mei Xue was like that, so she greeted Cecilia in a friendly manner.

"Hello, since you are Meixue's sister, then you are my sister too."

"...I am my brother's sister."

For some reason, the little angel subconsciously said that, then hugged Mei Xue's waist tightly, her eyes showing some wariness. This was quite different from her previous self; the Cecilia in Mei Xue's memory would never be this assertive.

Perhaps feeling that something was amiss, Cecilia loosened her grip slightly.

Hello, sister.

The little angel was puzzled by her behavior just now. She was a very polite and kind girl who was friendly to everyone. What was wrong with her today?

"Okay, come in first. It's not good to just stand at the door."

Strictly speaking, Mei Xue is the person in charge of this office. This room was originally chosen by him four years ago when he regained his memories and left for Rhodes Island to be its future office. He subconsciously chose it to be closer to Qin Liu's home.

“You…it’s you. I thought it would be Ms. Outcast who came this time, after all, according to the telegram you just crossed the border two days ago.”

Upon seeing Mei Xue, Oliver and Shredder immediately became nervous. Talking about Mei Xue in private and meeting her in person are not the same thing. The little fox's status on Rhodes Island is even higher than that of elite operators.

"Don't be nervous. I'm just here to see Sister Jenny and pick up a few documents. Would you like an apple?"

He took two apples from his tail and handed them over. The little fox looked around. This place didn't seem like an office or a guesthouse, but rather like a cozy home. Little Hill County itself didn't have many noteworthy places, so there were only two or three people in this office. He liked this atmosphere.

"Thank you."

It's a long-standing belief within Rhodes Island that eating Mei Xue's apples brings good luck, but even if that's not true, the apples themselves taste delicious.

Oliver and Shredder were completely surprised that the person who came would be Mei Xue, because just two days ago the telegram was signed "outcast," which was an extraordinary mission for an elite operator in such a small place, let alone Mei Xue, who was known as one of the three pillars of Rhodes Island.

"Here is the information you requested."

Oliver took a sealed document bag from a hidden cabinet and handed it to Mei Xue. He was very puzzled. In fact, until a month ago, the office's task was just to act as a small clinic, prescribing medicine and treating patients.

However, starting a month ago, intelligence from unknown sources began to be placed on the office desk, marked as top secret with Rhodes Island's special coded message to prove it wasn't fake news. A notification from our ship some time ago also confirmed this.

"Thank you."

After thanking them, Mei Xue didn't care that Oliver, Shredder, and the others were still there. She immediately opened the intelligence report and started reading it. Shredder and Oliver were a step too slow to avoid it. They only saw words like "Deep Pool," "Draco," and "Sarkaz," and quickly forced themselves to forget them. This was not something they should see, and it was best if they didn't.

But no one knew that the Mandrakes sitting on Mei Xue's shoulders were dumbfounded. This information was not given by her, but it was detailed about all the affairs of Deeppool, from the division of positions to specific plans, which forces were involved, what their intentions were, and who the leader was.

Moreover, it's not just Deeppool, but also information on the dukes and nobles of Victoria, big and small, and even information from the Sarkaz.

However, what surprised the kitten the most was the signature of the final intelligence report—Akhmoni.

(That guy who never seemed like a good person was actually one of us???)

The kitten's already not-so-bright brain was almost overloaded and feverish. Mei Xue only glanced at it a few times before putting it away, planning to take some time tonight to hand it over to Rhodes Island. He himself didn't need this information.

"By the way, I haven't found a place to stay yet. I'll have to go check it out later."

"In that case..."

"Stay at my house!"

Qin Liu interrupted Oliver directly. Perhaps because she was nervous, her voice was louder than usual. The little fox was stunned for a moment, then nodded to indicate that she could.

"Then I'll cook tonight."

Seeing the smile on the little fox's face, Qin Liu's heart softened again, and for some reason her face turned a little red. This shouldn't be, she was clearly... Oh well, it would be best if Mei Xue could stay with her tonight, and it wouldn't matter if Cecilia was there too. Who wouldn't like a cute and sensible child?

Just as Mei Xue and Jenny were discussing what to eat for dinner, Deep Pool also received news that the little fox had been targeted as soon as it entered the city because the higher-ups had specifically instructed them to pay attention to the white Volpo people, especially those with many tails.

"You mean he's already in Little Hills?"

Ahmoni frowned slightly, looking somewhat displeased, because this was clearly beyond Deeppool's expectations. According to previous intelligence, Mei Xue shouldn't have arrived so quickly, and Deeppool was planning to start work in Little Hill County during this period.

"Yes, do we need to do it?"

The spy made a gesture, but only received a glare from Ahmoni. How did such an idiot get recruited into the intelligence department? Doesn't she even think about how Mei Xue managed to come here with that cat and her little daughter? Luck? No, that seems to be the most fitting explanation for Mei Xue.

"Let me consult with the leader first. Until then, you just need to keep a close watch on things. Also, be extra careful with the garrison. Don't let them cause us any trouble."

"Yes!"

After her subordinates left, Ahmoni finally relaxed her brow. She was unhappy because Mei Xue arrived early? What a joke! She was overjoyed. The sooner that little fox arrived, the sooner she would be free. It was exhausting to constantly maneuver and smile at various forces. Intelligence work was very risky.

However, it was only by reaching this position that Ahmoni could accurately grasp most of the information about the Deep Pool. Apart from the information that only Abrahana, the leader, knew, she had access to the rest.

"Or... should we go see him later?"

Ahmoni tapped her fingers lightly on the table. She was thinking of going to see Mei Xue. She needed to complain a little about the hard work he had assigned her, and then ask for some benefits. Hmm, what would be appropriate...? Looking at herself, she had a necklace, earrings, and a bag, but she was missing a ring on her hand.

Thinking of this, Ahmoni tidied herself up and got up to find Abrahina. It was impossible for her to go see Meixue on her own, as that would arouse suspicion. Abrahina was a suspicious person, so Ahmoni had always been loyal in completing her missions, and she had also been protected from being exposed thanks to Meixue.

However, it wouldn't be too abrupt if the meeting was arranged under the guise of getting to know each other. I just hope that silly fox won't pounce on her the moment he sees her.

"Hmm, Ahmoni, what are you doing here?"

Just as Ahmoni was thinking about how to persuade Abrahana to agree to let her approach Meixue, Lafshini happened to walk over from the other side, and the two of them were a little embarrassed after bumping into each other.

"He's here to report to the chief. Do you remember that little fox that Sarkaz asked us to assassinate? He's here, in Little Hill County."

"...So fast?"

"Yes, that's why I had to tell the chief."

Ahmoni nodded, then pushed open the door and went inside, ignoring Rafshini's expression, since it was none of her business anyway.

Upon entering the room, Abrahina's thoughtful expression made Ahmoni realize that she was still troubled by that matter. Tomorrow, after the representatives of Kazimierz and Rembito arrived in Laterano, the first Terran Union Conference would be held, and everyone could foresee the kind of turmoil this conference would cause to this land.

However, neither Victoria nor Deeppool were qualified to attend this meeting. No Grand Duke would allow anyone to represent Victoria at the meeting. Although Abrahina was of Drak blood, Deeppool was not even a well-known organization, unlike the Reunion Movement, which had appeal and influence.

"Chief... are you still concerned about that matter?"

"Hmm, huff... Ahmoni, what do you think this meeting will bring to this land?"

"Who knows? It could be a dramatic change, or it could just be a little rain hitting the lake and creating some ripples."

Ahmoni seemed indifferent to the meeting, as she already knew the inside story. Deeppool and the Grand Dukes were obviously not invited, but unlike Ursus, which had lost its eligibility, Victoria simply lacked a representative. Once the queen chosen by the Doctor and Meixue returned to the throne, Victoria could still join the meeting.

"Chief, the target has entered Little Hill County. Should we send someone to try and make contact with him?"

"...Yes, it is indeed necessary, but I don't trust just anyone, so I'll leave this to you."

There was no other way. Deeppool was planning to take action against Little Hill County, and they were short-handed. It was reassuring to hand it over to Ahmoni, and Abrahana wasn't worried that she would do anything underhanded.

"Yes, I will definitely complete the mission."

She appeared respectful on the surface, but Ahmoni was actually practically bursting with laughter; it was like a godsend when someone was just about to fall asleep.

So, how should we tease that little fox tonight?

Chapter 83 Qinliu's Little Thoughts

"Let's eat something better today. Hmm, what would Cecilia like to eat?"

With her hands busy and her tail never stopping, Mei Xue looked at the little angel beside her. The speed at which she chopped vegetables made one worry that she might cut her hand.

“Cecilia will eat anything her brother makes.”

The little angel is very well-behaved. For her, Mei Xue's side is the most reassuring place. In unfamiliar environments, she is not very good at getting along with strangers, and can even be described as somewhat shy. It was a miracle that she took the initiative to go to Mei Xue in the first place.

So he couldn't stay in the same room as Qin Liu. The little angel preferred to stick with Mei Xue, but fortunately, this didn't stop him from cooking.

"Then you need to eat more so you can grow up better."

The little fox gently patted Cecilia's head, spoiling her little sister rotten. However, Cecilia wasn't in a hurry to grow taller, because she knew that Meixue probably wouldn't grow any taller in the future, so if she wanted to continue being Meixue's little sister, she should grow up a little slower.

"Meow~"

Mandra licked her paws. The kitten was also a little hungry. Although she had turned into a cat, her appetite was similar to that of a normal person. Moreover, Mei Xue's cooking skills were indeed superb, after all, she had over a hundred years of culinary experience.

While the kitchen was bustling with activity, Jenny was taking a shower in the bathroom. There was only one bedroom in the house, so tonight she would sleep with Meixue in her arms as usual. The little angel naturally wanted to snuggle in Meixue's arms.

Jenny hadn't seen Meixue in a long time, and she felt that she probably hadn't looked very good back then. She hadn't taken good care of herself; her hair was dry and split, and even her hair lacked shine. Thinking about it, her skin seemed a bit dry too, and oh, were there bags under her eyes...?

“That’s too bad!”

Jenny touched her face. It was a rare reunion, and she naturally hoped to leave Mei Xue with a good impression.

Actually, these are just unfounded worries. Jenny is naturally beautiful. Even after joining Victoria's special forces team, she didn't neglect taking care of herself. Not to mention her smooth skin, her beautiful long golden hair is very attractive. Besides, the little fox never pays too much attention to such things.

For Jenny, Mei Xue was a very special person. In the first year after moving here, the loneliness and heavy pressure made it hard to breathe. Mei Xue, who suddenly appeared at her doorstep, was like a gift from heaven. He was well-behaved, sensible, hardworking and capable, and an irreplaceable pillar of support.

"call……"

Soaking in the warm water relieved her fatigue. Jenny ran her hand gently over her legs and then glanced at her chest. Her figure had developed a bit more over the years and was basically set. Mei Xue would probably like her like this. Little Fox herself had said that it would be very comfortable to sleep together like this.
