"Is it okay?" Ignoring Zhang Zhidao, An Chen asked.
If Zhang knew they were being driven, he would definitely have used a police car.
Would this be considered misuse of a public vehicle?
As if knowing what An Chen was thinking, Zhang Zhidao said, "Using the police car is to find the missing kitten, it doesn't count as misuse of public vehicles."
"Thank you then." An Chen nodded.
This weather is really unbearable.
With Zhang Zhidong floating around beside them, even the strongest person couldn't withstand it for long.
This is indeed impressive in a certain sense.
"Thank you," Jiuge replied politely.
"Okay, just a moment, I'll tell my colleague, and he'll bring the car over to me soon." Zhang Zhidao held his phone in his right hand and wiped the sweat from his brow with his left.
"Sigh... I don't know why, but lately I always feel like the temperature around me is ridiculously high. I've almost fainted a few times." He put down his phone and sighed.
"This warmth is all your brother's love for you," An Chen calmly retorted upon hearing this.
"?" Zhang Zhidao was dumbfounded.
“Your brother has been following you around lately,” An Chen explained.
"Because he was a great heroic spirit, and a policeman in his previous life, he has the ability to emit astonishing heat." Jiu Ge, who had just finished carefully reading the anti-online fraud leaflet, looked up and added seriously.
"..." Zhang knew that his feelings were complicated.
……
Soon, Zhang's colleague drove up in the police car he knew.
After getting rid of the unreasonable Zhang Zhidong, An Chen and Jiu Ge got into the car.
The air conditioning was on in the police car, so it was quite cool.
As soon as they got into the car, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief.
It's unbearable to be outside in this sweltering heat. I really don't know how my pampered little one can withstand it.
As soon as Jiuge sat down, her phone started vibrating incessantly again.
Susu from the Pseudo-Capital: [How is it? Did you get on the bus? /Question]
Jiuge smiled and began replying to messages.
The hope of the pseudo-capital: [Yeah, we just got into our friend's police car. /chuckle]
Su Su from the Puppet Capital: [They're actually riding in a police car! Are they that powerful? /Surprised]
The hope of the pseudo-capital: [Don't worry, it's not a case of misuse of public vehicles / chuckle]
Su Su from the pseudo-capital: [That's not important. Now that you're on the bus, it's convenient for me to ask you.]
The Pseudo-Capital's Hope: [What?]
SuSu from the Pseudo-Capital: [That's the guy you mentioned before who never confesses to you /evil grin]
Susu from the Pseudo-Capital: [How was my plan? How's your progress going? /Evil grin]
Seeing that Jiuge was replying to Susu's message from the pseudo-capital again, An Chen leaned his head closer to the phone screen.
"You'd better not tell her the specifics of what happened between us," An Chen advised.
"Why?" Jiuge asked alertly.
"I have a guess, but I'm not sure yet. Anyway, you'd better not give me a direct answer yet." As he spoke, An Chen ruffled Jiu Ge's hair.
Although she didn't understand why, Jiu Ge, who had always unconditionally believed in An Chen, obediently didn't openly answer Su Su's question from the pseudo-capital.
Nearly twenty minutes later, the police car finally drove slowly to the location designated by Su Su in the pseudo-capital.
As soon as the car stopped, before An Chen and Jiu Ge even got out, the two of them, carrying red umbrellas and clutching milk candies, rushed towards the police car.
An Chen and Jiu Ge opened the car window.
Then, what came into view were Su Zhi and Li Zhi, who were both dumbfounded.
Chapter 169 The Master of Logic (Seeking monthly votes and subscriptions)
"The flyer is right, it's easy to get scammed when you meet someone online." Back in her apartment, Jiu Ge placed the anti-fraud flyer, which she had almost crumpled out of shape, on the coffee table with a serious expression.
To prevent the flyers from falling due to the candy, she even used a small crystal to weigh them down.
Jiu Ge still vividly remembers the look of being deceived and hurt that Su Zhi gave him when he saw her.
Even though she felt deceived, why did Su Zhi seem more hurt than she was?
Moreover, during casual conversations, I never felt that the person on the other end was Su Zhi, who was always so aggressive towards Jiu Ge for some reason.
The divination result also indicated that she was someone who considered her a close friend.
But given the current situation...
It's just like what's written on the back of the flyer—online dating leads to meeting in real life, only to find that the other person doesn't match the initial impression.
"Pfft. Are you solemnly placing the flyer on the coffee table so you can glance at its contents every now and then and learn from it?" An Chen chuckled as he looked at Jiu Ge's actions.
He crouched down, intending to put the milk candy in his arms down.
Just as the candy was about to touch the ground, the mischievous kitten delivered a spinning kick, firmly pulling it back onto An Chen's shirt.
Helpless, An Chen had no choice but to continue holding the little baby who was trying to act cute in his arms.
"No, it's just that I think what's written on this flyer makes a lot of sense," Jiuge paused before replying.
She glanced at the words on the flyer again out of the corner of her eye and nodded to herself.
“Actually, you don’t need to feel too disappointed. I think there’s another possibility.” An Chen said this seemingly random thing while plucking the cat’s fur.
"What's possible?" Jiuge blinked.
"Perhaps Su Zhi has always considered you a close friend, but because she's not good at expressing herself, she can only communicate with you normally in this way," An Chen said, spouting nonsense with a straight face.
"However... she really worked hard. I never expected that the scheme she spent so long setting up would fail in this way, with her identity exposed..." Fearing that Jiuge wouldn't believe him, he pretended to sigh deeply with regret.
"So there's another layer of meaning behind it?" Jiuge's mouth formed an "O" shape as she suddenly realized.
“Yes, so don’t ignore her because of this. She’s really pitiful,” An Chen suggested.
A few tens of minutes ago, Su Zhi excitedly ran towards the police car, but the moment she saw Jiu Ge's face, her expression changed several times. In the end, she simply threw the milk candy into the car window and grabbed the stunned Li Zhi, then fled in panic.
"You mean I should take the initiative to communicate with her and try to be friends with her?" Jiu Ge pondered the meaning behind An Chen's words for a moment and came to a conclusion.
“Yes, this will also help you improve your social skills.” An Chen nodded, his eyes smiling.
If things continue like this, Jiuge might actually make a true friend.
These days, besides thinking about things related to love...
He had also carefully considered solutions to Jiu Ge's various problems, such as interpersonal communication and poor communication skills.
Indeed, Jiuge is now able to calmly exchange a few words with Ling and Ren, who have been appearing more frequently lately, and can even communicate with the staff at the milk tea shop and the cashier at the gift shop.
But that alone is not enough.
To outsiders, Jiuge appears aloof, powerful, and indifferent to the opinions of those around her, but the truth is quite different.
Timidity, shyness, loneliness, helplessness, confusion, and occasional lack of self-confidence—this is the true Jiuge.
Unfortunately, change doesn't happen overnight.
To solve many problems, neither An Chen nor Jiu Ge can stop moving forward.
"I'll consider it." After sitting on the sofa and thinking deeply for a moment, Jiuge nodded.
"But I have another question, what does 'revealing one's identity' mean?" She tilted her head, looking puzzled.
“…” An Chen was speechless.
……
night.
After taking a shower, An Chen knocked on Jiu Ge's door.
From the moment An Chen came out of the bathroom, Naitang stayed by his side, constantly rubbing her head against his feet.
"What's wrong?" Jiuge instinctively opened the door only a crack.
As if she had thought of something, she immediately pushed the door open: "Come in."
No sooner had she finished speaking than the haughty Milk Candy meowed and walked into Jiu Ge's room.
An Chen glanced thoughtfully at Naitang, then took Jiu Ge's hand and walked inside.
"I want to introduce you to my... friend." With that, he skillfully plopped down on Jiuge's bed.
"Friends?" Jiuge's eyes lit up.
On the very first day they started dating, she even searched online.
As netizens have said, after a boyfriend introduces his girlfriend to his friends, it's time for her to meet his parents.
The next second, Jiuge thought of An Chen's space again.
And... according to her analysis, apart from Zhang Zhidao, An Chen probably doesn't have any living friends right now?
"Why did your face suddenly turn so pale again? Don't you want to see me? If you don't, then forget it." Seeing that Jiu Ge's face didn't look good, An Chen quickly changed his words.
“No, I want to see him,” Jiuge said with a straight face.
"Then why are you looking so serious?" An Chen asked, puzzled.
He just wanted to let Jiuge interact more with people and spirits, and broaden her horizons.
Because it was clear that Jiuge also wanted to make changes, Anchen wanted to put things on the agenda as soon as possible.
However, if the other party is unwilling or not mentally prepared, he will not force them.
“Because I think the friends you mentioned are mostly your subordinates or people you met when you were the mysterious man, and they are definitely not living people.” Jiuge pouted and stated her deduction.
“That’s true…” An Chen squeezed Jiu Ge’s hand and moved closer to her.
