Poverty makes me capable of anything.

He shook his head again: "Maybe I'm overthinking it. I'll report the relocation of the spaceships to my superiors first. It's really not good to leave these unrelated spaceships still in the hovering station."

"Then I'll have to trouble you, sir," the deputy stationmaster said with a smile.

Soon after An Ran left the hover station, she noticed that more people were following her.

There were six people at first, but now there are at least ten.

It's because of her actions just now that they've become even more suspicious of her. It's a bit of a headache, but let them follow if they want.

Anran led Ella to a stone table in the city square and they sat down.

Those who were following her dispersed, keeping a 360-degree view of An Ran's every move, maintaining communication throughout and reporting to their superiors.

"She's spacing out!"

"She took the video drink out of her bag!"

What brand is it?

"Let me see... Oh, Qingju Cola, I usually like to drink this too."

"Get out of here!"

"..."

"Qingju Cola is originally produced in Tanghexing."

"Yeah, she was spacing out again, and she drank half a bottle of Coke while spacing out."

"Ah, there's movement, she's started using the bracelet."

Can you see what she's doing?

"I can't see it very clearly from here, I only know that her finger is sliding on the virtual interface."

"Speaking of which, she's quite pretty."

"..."

"Damn it, you're not getting your bonus this month!"

"No--"

What is the girl next to her doing?

"He was intently drinking his cola."

"Okay, continue monitoring them, and bring the detector closer."

"Roger that!"

"Section Chief, Section Chief, she seems to be trying to contact someone!"

"What?! She's contacting her accomplices in this open-air place? Quick, I need to hear every word she says!"

"Yes!"

A moment later, the communication was established, and the miniature detector climbed under the stool.

"...Is there something you need from me?"

I only heard the second half, but the voice was very excited; it was a female voice.

"Hmm." An Ran nodded. "I wanted to ask..."

What is it? What is she asking?!

The section chief, who had his ear pressed tightly against the Tonghua equipment, became nervous.

"I want to ask how to get along well with a little girl who has a bad temper."

"what?"

"She's a girl about Ella's age. But she has a rather volatile temper, and it seems like she doesn't have any relatives at home."

"If you're asking me this... uh."

Zhou Jieyu, on the other end of the communication line, suddenly stiffened.

She's short-tempered, and at Ella's age, isn't she just a brat? Let her learn to deal with brats.

Emmm...

That's actually quite difficult.

"Then please ask other strangers for me, please."

By issuing the quest "Anran's Request", in addition to gaining experience, Anran's favorability will increase by 2.

“Leave it to me!” Zhou Jieyu said loudly.

over.

"..."

There was a deathly silence. After a moment, the section chief's voice came from the bracelet.

"Can anyone tell me what's going on?"

"This……"

"Section Chief, to be honest, just an hour ago..."

Someone told the section chief what they had seen.

"Section Chief, I think she might not be a Night Owl spy, but a human trafficker!"

His words were astonishing!

"..."

An Ran was stunned when she heard those words from the detector. Human trafficker?

(╬￣Dish￣)

I'm really angry that you're slandering me like this!

Chapter 46: Thinking about other "women" while playing the game.

"Human traffickers?"

Before the section chief could even process this novel idea, the inspection team members lying in wait at the scene began to discuss it.

"Your idea is novel, but upon closer inspection, it seems to make a lot of sense."

"If we follow this line of thinking, then is the little girl next to her also someone she abducted?"

All eyes were on Ella, who was drinking a Coke.

Although the little girl seemed very close to the woman, who could guarantee that she wasn't being deceived by her?

It's very possible that woman is a highly skilled human trafficker!

Behind her is a very sophisticated gang. Some members of the gang are responsible for devising strategies, while others are responsible for using various means to deceive children whose minds are not yet mature.

"That makes perfect sense."

"It seems she has set her sights on that little girl from the Wildling Clan."

“I just investigated. The little girl had been living with her mother, but her mother passed away recently, leaving her all alone. Before her mother died, she borrowed a lot of money for medical treatment, but she still couldn't make it. Recently, people have been coming to her house every day to collect debts.”

"..."

Isn't this...?

"Indeed, this is an excellent target for human trafficking!"

"Even if it were abducted, it wouldn't cause a big commotion, would it?"

"Especially now, during this special period, losing one person won't attract any attention at all."

"No!"

The section chief interrupted the others' speculations with a stern voice.

“Based on my 13 years of experience in this industry, I still find her very suspicious. War is very likely to break out in 1903. Would a human trafficker specifically come here to abduct people?”

"This……"

"Of course, we can't rule out the possibility that the news is being blocked. In any case, we can't let our guard down. Make a record of her actions and report it to me. If there's anything unusual, report it to me immediately," the section chief said.

"Yes!"

whispering sound--

An Ran pursed her lips, thinking that after this group of people had a heated discussion, they would relax their surveillance on her.

Although we've temporarily strayed from the topic, there are still people with clear minds, and the empire's army isn't as incompetent as it seems.

Fine, let them monitor me then. An Ran never intended to cause trouble on 1903. She just wanted to protect her spaceship and leave as soon as the war was over.

If possible, take that dark-skinned loli with you as well.

What a pitiful dark-skinned little girl!

An Ran had originally planned to investigate the background of that dark-skinned little girl, but unexpectedly, the group of people surrounding her had already done the investigation for her. How thoughtful!

Slurp...

"Empty?"

An Ran looked down and saw that the beverage bottle was indeed empty.

Only two and a half bottles of cola are left out of the four.

An Ran picked up another bottle. She was already very happy, and if she drank two more bottles of "happy water," she would be even happier.

Let the people who are monitoring us be happy too.

"Ella, wanna play games?"

"Mmm!" Ella nodded vigorously, releasing the straw that had been bitten flat.

Anran then took out two small handles.
