When Lin Yuxia heard Mike's answer, her already pale face turned even paler than paper.
"I heard that the play was well told."
"Can you give me a brief introduction? I don't mind spoilers."
"It tells the story of a man named Chen from ancient Yan State who passed the civil service exam, abandoned his wife and children, changed his name, and entered the Mingyue Tower, the prime minister's mansion."
Mike had just finished the last bite of cart noodles and picked up a fish ball with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.
"Ms. Lin, I am not suitable to watch this play. I am unmarried, and I have no children. I have not changed my name, and I am just a car repair shop owner. I am afraid I cannot enter the Yan Kingdom Theater."
Lin Yuxia clenched her hands hidden under the table: "Okay, then what do you want?"
Mike looked at Miss Lin's ugly face and said, "I'm quite confused. No one has come to Longmen for two months. How come so many things happened suddenly in the past few days? Miss Lin, why are you here?"
"I can't tell you about Longmen. You're just the owner of a car repair shop. If you get involved, you might get killed."
Lin Yuxia paused when she said this, and a smile appeared on her pale face. It was a bitter smile, a bitter smile.
"I have only heard one person in this land mention fish ball thick noodles, there is no noodles."
Boom.
There was a muffled thunder in the sky.
There was a bit of rain in the outer ring this afternoon, and I'm afraid there will be continuous thunderstorms tonight.
Mike nodded and pulled out his wallet, placing the change on the table.
"You scared the stall owner. He thought we were going to fight."
Lin Yuxia's lips were trembling: "Mike. Some things are not what you think."
"There's no need to talk about what has already happened. I know it all. Goodbye."
Mike got on his bike and rode away leisurely, leaving Lin Yuxia sitting there alone.
Why is this happening?
Why can't I help but get angry?
Are you angry that he faked his death and left Rhodes Island, abandoning everything, changing his identity, and starting a new life?
Or are you angry about what’s hidden in your heart, but can’t open your mouth to let him know?
Everyone said that Amiya was like her daughter, but the little rabbit never admitted it and he just smiled and shook his head.
Everyone says that he calls everyone his wife, but in reality they are just friends at best.
Everyone knows his last name is An, but no one can tell his specific name.
Now I'm just a car repair shop owner, that's all.
Lin Yuxia covered her face, tears streaming down her fingers.
This time she was closer and ahead of anyone else, but she was ultimately turned away. It was probably her own fault.
Drops of rain fell from the sky, splashing onto the table and forming a puddle of water.
Lin Yuxia stopped sobbing and looked at the empty bowl of noodles opposite her expressionlessly. She slowly opened her mouth and looked at something in astonishment.
There was only one fish ball left on the plate, and it was pierced with chopsticks. She hadn't noticed just now, but the other end of the chopstick was facing her.
This is……
This bastard actually left one for her!
Lin Yuxia grabbed the chopsticks and put the last fish ball into her mouth.
As she slowly pulled the tip of the chopsticks out from her rosy lips, she suddenly remembered something.
This guy definitely didn't come to the Outer Ring Road specifically to eat cart noodles. It was a surprise for him to see me.
Ms. Lin had to admit that she just came here to try her luck, but she didn't expect to actually meet him.
What was the reason that made Mike make a special trip to Longmen Outer Ring?
A flash of thunder flashed across the sky, and the sad and beautiful lightning illuminated the dark sky, and also flashed a thought in Lin Yuxia's mind.
Mike noticed all the abnormal phenomena that occurred in Longmen during this period. He was not here to play, that is, he was here to solve the problem.
By the time Lin Yuxia figured this out, she could no longer find any trace of Mike.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, enough to wash away all traces.
"You're just an asshole, and I'm another idiot!"
Lin Yuxia put the chopsticks into her clothes, pressed down some Longmen coins with an empty bowl, turned around and ran.
Those idiots in the Guard Bureau know nothing, and Mike has already come to the Outer Rim to cause trouble.
Why did he dare to do this when he was so thin before?
How did he get to be the way he is now?
Kal'tsit! You fooled everyone but yourself!
……
The base of Penguin Logistics.
The End of the Earth, this bar hidden in a corner of the city, is unlikely to be discovered. Most of the time, the old penguin brings his children here to listen to music, play games, and enjoy their boring leisure time.
But today the bar welcomed an uninvited guest.
They all knew this guest, the only question was why he came here?
When Angel of Power saw the other person, he immediately jumped down from the sofa and quickly ran to the guest: "Why are you here? You didn't tell me before you came. Are you going to do a surprise inspection? It's a pity that you didn't find anything."
"I didn't find it. Does that mean there should be something here?"
The emperor put down the gun that was aiming at the target and said seriously: "Mastema, you don't usually come here. Why are you here now? Is there something special going on?"
The fallen angel with short blue hair raised the telescopic umbrella in his hand: "Someone asked me to send this here. He said, you know who he is."
23. Texas Anomaly
"Is this person's name written on the umbrella?" Archangel took the telescopic umbrella from Mostima, checked it, and found nothing.
Texas, who had regained consciousness, had very clear thoughts: "Where did you see him, what did he look like, what kind of clothes did he wear, we should have seen him before."
Mostima carefully recalled the stranger in his memory and described Mike's appearance, but found that everyone in Penguin Logistics had strange expressions.
"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with this person?"
"We have seen him before, but we are not very familiar with him. He is the owner of a car repair shop."
The answer from the Archangel did not satisfy Mastema. Texas asked thoughtfully, "Besides this, what else did he tell you?"
"No, nothing else was said."
The Fallen Angel noticed the change in the Luper's expression.
"Wait here for me. I'll go contact a few people."
Texas quickly went to the other side of the bar, grabbed the phone on the table, and dialed the contact number she and Javi had set aside.
Broca's voice soon came from the other side of the microphone.
"Where's Javi?"
Brocka said slightly embarrassedly: "I got off work a little early today. Javi drank and was wrestling with Osta."
Broca's description made Texas' blood pressure soar. She asked the three to pay more attention to what happened in the outer ring of Longmen, but she didn't expect this guy to neglect his duties and be so unreliable.
"did you drink?"
Broca could tell that Texas had a bad tone, so how could he dare to offend Syracuse's current celebrity? He quickly said, "I've been working out recently, and I haven't touched anything but plain water."
"Then answer me, Mike Ann, where did Boss Mike go this afternoon?"
Speaking of this topic, Broca seemed to be full of resentment.
"The boss had a few words with Javi today. Javi seemed to have made him angry, so he announced that he would leave work early and that he would have the next week off."
"What, how could this happen, what did he say to Javi?"
Texas was surprised. Things changed much faster than she thought. She didn't expect Mike Ann to be so willful. He would give holidays whenever he wanted. He was more impulsive than her boss, the Emperor.
Brocka described what Mike and Javi had said. Texas on the other side of the microphone was silent, and the Filin people thought that the person had left.
"You've done a great job. Boss Mike is giving you a day off so just take a good rest and don't think about anything else."
"Good, good."
In fact, Texas wasn't very good at hiding her emotions, and even Broca could tell that she had something on her mind.
It seems that they won't be able to keep their jobs in the repair shop for long.
……
Texas returned to where everyone was sitting. Mostima gave him a questioning look. Lupo paused and explained, "The owner of the repair shop had a quarrel with his employees today and announced a holiday. I think that's when he met you."
"so what?"
"Nothing," Texas shook his head. "You two just met by chance. Don't take it too seriously. You can give me the umbrella. Exia and I broke down our car a while ago and sent it to him for repair. I can spare some time to send the umbrella over."
"Okay, thank you then."
Mostima put down the umbrella, raised his head and looked at Texas again: "Can you tell me where the repair shop is? I want to come and thank you."
"It's better not to use it."
Texas again refused.
Her unusual behavior made Exiah look at the Fallen Angel, then at her partner, and for a moment she didn't understand what was going on in between.
"That's it."
Mostima withdrew his gaze and did not emphasize anything further.
"Boss, I'm going out for a while."
The emperor looked up and saw that the Luper had already picked up his clothes and walked out.
His employees never consult with him, but inform him.
But the old penguin did not object. His black eyes kept turning, as if he was thinking about something.
Something was wrong, very wrong.
Kong sensed something unusual, but couldn't tell what was wrong.
Angel was surprised to see Texas leaving alone. The little angel was puzzled as to why her partner didn't call her.
"Should I chase after him?"
"I don't know, but Texas feels so weird today." Croissant was also confused.
Mostima nodded slightly: "Xiaole, you and Texas worked together before, right?"
"Yeah, there was an accident last time, and the boss asked us to take a few days off."
"Okay," the fallen angel sighed, "Can I borrow your phone?"
"of course can."
Mostima walked to the phone and dialed a number, and Xingxiong's calm and steady voice came from the other end.
"It's you. You called me at the Penguin Logistics base. What happened?"
"Texas acted alone. She may have gone to the Outer Rim. Do you want to keep an eye on her whereabouts?"
Xingxiong on the other side of the microphone was silent for a moment: "Thank you, it is indeed necessary."
After hanging up the phone, the fallen angel rubbed his eyes and said, "It's time for me to leave."
"Are you in such a hurry to leave?"
Exia didn't understand what was going on and tried to stop Mastema from leaving.
"I didn't come to Longmen alone. Fiammetta is very concerned about my whereabouts. If I don't tell her where I am, she might turn Longmen upside down."
"It would be nice if Fiammetta came to our place..."
Before the Archangel could finish his words, the Emperor interrupted him and said, "Mastema, go back and don't let the people over there worry."
