Ark Traveler, I want to take a day off today too

"Bang~"

As expected, Broken Bones fell to the hands of the Reunion fighter on his left who was smoking without even a move of resistance, while the fighter on his right once again swung his stick and started smashing at his 'companion' beside him.

This also made Misha stunned:

"Are you having internal strife?"

040.Seeing the Dragon Telling Ghost Stories

Let's go back five minutes.

At that time, Broken Bones had just followed the main force into the abandoned building, while Linley and Star Bear quietly shot the heads of two Reunion Warriors who were of the same size as them and were responsible for the rear guard.

“Really? Are you planning to sneak in wearing their clothes?” Xingxiong looked at Lin Lei and then at himself. “This clothes seems too small.”

“Just wear what you need. If I weren’t a Void Hunter, I would have taken you in openly.” Linley rolled his eyes helplessly. As for the use of light energy, he could only say that he was not good at thunder and void.

The Night Stalker (Void Hunter) who can be invisible anytime and anywhere is undoubtedly the best solution at present.

It's a pity that he is not the legendary guardian - 'Little Mute', who is proficient in all ways of light and shadow. He is best at scorching sun and ice shadow...but because he was beaten half to death by the thresher when he left, his ice shadow power has not recovered until now. It's like a dry well. No matter what he does, no water will gush out.

"Ah, these dirty and poor quality clothes remind me of the first two years when I arrived at Longmen." Xingxiong said as she put on the mask, and her horn broke through the hood and stuck out. "And with our disguise like this, won't he be able to tell there's something wrong with us just by turning his head?"

“Then he has to turn back too. Also, don’t talk on the way. Your accent is completely different from those drunkards from Ursus.” Lin Lei also put on a mask, and the original Yan country official language immediately turned into Ursus with countless tongue-twisting sounds.

Unlike the questioning and conversation that Lin Lei had expected, the Bonebreaker did not seem to have much communication with his subordinates, and never turned back to look at the two sneaky tall men. The other members of the Reunion Movement were also confused by someone's Ursus language after seeing Lin Lei and Xingxiong.

The Ursus dialect with a hint of the Far North made these infected people mistakenly believe that they were guerrilla fighters that Broken Bones had taken from the Patriots and Froststar.

Now, the actions of these two "guerrilla fighters" made the other Reunion infected realize: "They have been deceived." Lin Lei picked up the broken bones and ran away, and Xingxiong also caught up with the other party in two steps after breaking the baseball bat.

Just as they were about to catch up with Amiya’s group, Franka drew out her own ‘Melta Sword’ and pointed it at Linley: “Shouldn’t you two introduce yourselves before you seek refuge from Rhodes Island?”

“Franca, they are from Rhodes Island, let them in!” Fortunately, Jane spoke at the right time so that Lin Lei and Xingxiong did not have to waste any more time to prove their identities, and they successfully walked to the doctor’s side.

At this time, Jane pulled Linley’s sleeve and asked, “Who is that person next to you, Dredger?”

“She is Senior Inspector Xingxiong of the Longmen Guard Bureau…” Linley whispered, “She is also an old… ahem friend I met in Longmen.” He definitely couldn’t say something like “old lover” to her. If the doctor told Warfarin, even if it wasn’t him, he would have to attack in his anemic form next month.

"Then please ask this Inspector Xingxiong to hide his identity. Our target seems to be quite dissatisfied with the Imperial Guard Bureau."

Xingxiong nodded upon hearing this: "I understand. I will pretend that I didn't see this Reunion cadre, but do you have a place where we can interrogate him?"

“I’ll ask Kal’tsit later.” Linley said indifferently, and his voice attracted the gazes of three people. One was curious, one was scrutinizing, and the last one rushed over in surprise: “Mr. Dredger! It’s really you!”

“Amiya, we’re still on the run. If you have anything to say, we can talk later.” Linley used his free left hand to touch the girl’s hair. “I’ll leave this guy to you… Don’t hand him over to the Imperial Guard.”

“Understood.” Amiya smiled and directed the operator beside her to take the broken bones from Linley’s hand. She bowed solemnly to Xingxiong and said, “Thank you for your generosity.”

"It's just for his sake." Hoshiguma said nonchalantly, "But little rabbit, your name is Amiya, right? I apologize for thinking you were still a child before. I'll buy you a drink later."

“And now, we have to say goodbye for now.” Looking at Texas on the steps, Linley said calmly, “Amiya, you guys should just follow Penguin Logistics. Their route may seem a bit strange at first glance, but it is definitely the safest.”

"What about you?" the little rabbit asked subconsciously.

“Of course we should go downstairs. This is the slums of Longmen. We can share some of the pursuit for you.” Linley said as he threw out a flashing flying knife.

"Sure enough, this guy named Dredger is the same guy from before." Texas subconsciously took out a pocky from his pocket and refused. "Although I asked Archangel to say thank you to him, should I say it again myself?"

The wolf girl was in a dilemma, but Linley’s stern shouting woke her up again: “Take them away, Miss Texas from Penguin Logistics… Isn’t this your job?”

"Well, see you again if we're lucky." Texas responded, and then she led a large group of people from Rhode Island and an unconscious Broken Bones to the rooftop.

"Oh? Looks like she recognized you." Xingxiong took off her disguise with a smile and jumped directly from the hollow of the corridor! During this time, she relied on her strong arm strength and jumping ability to frantically use several railings to gain leverage and finally landed on the bottom floor in less than fifteen seconds.

As the flying knife exploded, Linley threw out another stick of high explosives from the Gunpowder Game. At the same time, just like in old westerns, he took out his gun and tapped the hammer. With a "bang!", the explosives completely engulfed the infected warriors who rushed over like a rising fire dragon.

"boom!"

As the smoke and dust dissipated, the pursuers had turned into charcoal and ashes along with the floor of this floor.

“I didn’t hide my identity nor did I hide my weapons, so it’s no surprise that she recognized me.” Lin Lei said as he turned over and jumped down the stairs. Unlike Xingxiong’s “Jackie Chan-style” landing, he only needed to jump again one second before landing to completely open Newton’s coffin.

"Let's go. It's time for us to run away. Also, have you figured out how to report this to Mr. Chen?"

"It's not that difficult to see a dragon telling lies~"

041. The daughter of our old Lin family is beautiful

Just as Xingxiong and Lin Lei ran out of the unfinished building and prepared to retreat into the alley nearby, a group of thugs wearing black turbans and holding silver-white metal baseball bats surrounded them.

The sky, which had been clear, was now covered with dark clouds. The bright alley became extremely dark. Add to that a large group of fully armed baseball guys, and Linley even thought he had accidentally walked into the scene of a gang fight.

"Where is Brother Shan Ji?" He really wanted to say this, but his reason and Xingxiong's gaze prevented him from doing anything shameful.

“Can I ask who you are?” Linley placed his hands on his thorns. “Then I’ll consider whether or not I should say something like ‘Dou Lei Lou Mou’.”

Linley’s question was met with a girl’s chuckle. “You speak Ursus so well, but why is your Longmen dialect so poor? Someone who doesn’t know you would think you came from some remote mountainous area in Longmen.”

Then, the tall, pink-haired mouse girl with a low ponytail walked up to the two of them in high heels. She nodded to Xingxiong and then looked at Lin Lei. “I didn’t expect that Rhodes Island’s Dredger would be in cahoots with the senior inspector of the Imperial Guard.”

“Is there any problem with each taking what they need?” Linley laughed dryly. “Besides, we at Rhodes Island are indeed cooperating with the Dragon Gate Guards, right?”

"Oh, does your cooperation also include being affectionate?" Lin Yuxia blinked her big pink Carslan eyes, "Sister Ghost, you don't have to glare at me. I didn't see it. It was some purple-haired Carters who saw it and told me."

"Then she must miss the pork chop rice at the Guards Bureau." Xingxiong said through gritted teeth, "Also, don't call me Ghost Sister, Miss Lin."

"The Lin family will never forget what you have done for the slums and the Lin family." Lin Yuxia shook her head. "Now I just want to ask you one question... Did you see any residents in there, residents of Longmen?"

“It sounds like you guys carried out a small-scale evacuation?” Linley’s right hand remained motionless on the thorns, while his left hand touched his chin. “If you’re talking about the unfinished building behind us… then I can tell you responsibly that you didn’t.”

"Even homeless people would not live in an unfinished building with air leaking from all sides. They would freeze to death in the cold winter."

"That's good. Then please..." The Zalak girl was obviously much more relaxed. She bowed slightly and made an invitation: "My father invites Inspector Xingxiong... and Mr. Drjie..."

......In the basement of Lin's Candy Store in Longmen Slums......

Lin Lei and Xing Xiong did not resist, and the Gray Tails behind Lin Yuxia did not take action either. Just as their eldest lady said, "please", such a large group of people just walked in.

The man touched Xingxiong's arm with his shoulder with a strange look on his face: "I wonder if you still have the custom of worshipping the dragon head in the slums."

"It's not to the extent of worshipping the dragon head, but the Rat King can be said to be the shadow governor of the Longmen Slums." Xingxiong sighed, "His prestige in the slums is even higher than that of Governor Wei. The fact that he let his daughter come to see us only means that he has something very important to talk to us about."

“Then what about my lunch and dinner?” Linley looked at the Graytails behind him who were silent. “Will your boss treat us?”

"If your answer can satisfy my old man, maybe I would be willing to cook a meal for you myself." Lin Yuxia was stunned. This man wouldn't really treat her as a guest... Those were just polite and courteous words!

Moreover, it seems that my old man hasn’t cooked for a long time. The last time he cooked was during the Chinese New Year last year?

“It’s true that I haven’t cooked for a long time, but I still have the ability to treat you two to a meal.” As the stone wall at the end of the secret passage rose, a round table with a very Yan country style and a variety of hot meals came into the sight of Lin Lei and Xing Xiong, but what attracted Lin Lei’s attention more was the old man with a rat head standing in front of them.

Linley was not the only one staring at him. The old man, who was wearing a traditional Yan country Tang suit underneath a long coat, also looked at Linley with a smile on his face. “Perhaps this isn’t the first time we’ve met, right, Mr. Dredger?”

The murderous aura that was almost tangible covered Linley’s entire body like a sandstorm. The majesty of a superior was enough to make ordinary people breathless. But unfortunately, he now had to face Linley, a time traveler who had seen too many emperors and kings, and a Rhodes Island employee who could be sarcastic in front of Kelsey.

“Who knows? But you look very familiar to me, old man. Can we eat first? If you have any questions, we can talk while we eat.” Linley ignored the murderous aura and wielding power of the Rat King. He rubbed his hands together like an Indian bee magnified countless times.

I don’t know if it was because the Rat King was too imposing or because Linley’s words were too embarrassing, but the entire space fell into a deathly silence...

"Ahem, let's eat first...Yuxia?" The Rat King coughed dryly and looked at his daughter who had taken half a step forward: "Don't you want to stay and eat something?"

"I'm not interested in listening to your dark little secrets. I have things to do. I'm the president of the Longmen Youth Entrepreneurs Association, and I have a lecture tomorrow." Lin Yuxia shook her phone expressionlessly:

"In addition, I have dispersed all the infected people nearby who are not a problem. Old man, remember to take care of them if you have time." After saying this, the young lady twisted her body and left, and her gray tails also disappeared into the secret passage after bowing.

Now, there are only Linley, Star Bear and the Rat King left in this underground chamber which can be called a secret room.

"Please, both of you... I have a lot of questions to ask you two, especially you, Deruijie." The Rat King put down his cane and sat in the first seat. "Of course, in return, I won't tell this to friend Wei."

“Is that all? That sounds like a loss.” Linley picked up a piece of roast goose-like dish and stuffed it into his mouth. “Although I don’t mind unequal exchanges, the guy next to me is a Dragon Gate Guard after all…”

"I also treated you to a meal. Of course, you can take shelter if you need it." The Rat King blew his beard and said dissatisfiedly, "I sent someone to buy these specially. You may not be able to get them outside!"

"Well, let's first talk about why you came to Longmen before, Mr. Dredger."

042. She is the best doctor

“That was a year and a half ago.” Linley spat out a piece of bone and thought for a moment. “Do you want to hear the public’s reasons or my personal reasons?”

"Let's listen to the public first." Rat King Lin Gerui picked up the small wine jar on the table and drank it. The strong liquor from Yan Country was really suitable for the table of side dishes. Then he looked at Xing Xiong who was eating voraciously:

"Would Inspector Xingxiong like some?"

"Eh? Is it okay?" Xingxiong was stunned for a moment and then immediately picked up the glass on the table and handed it over, and the Rat King also poured her a glass.

"Of course, no problem. After all, drinking alone is too boring." The old man said with a smile, "What about you?"

“Wait until I finish making up my story before you drink.” Linley picked up another piece of roast goose. “The official reason was that Rhodes Island was interested in Longmen at the time, but because they were in a hurry to find manpower, they could only let a guy like me who slacks off during the day and sleeps at night come over to investigate.”

"Your investigation is about cleaning up the Syracuse family that came here to cause trouble?" The Rat King sneered, "Then should we also give you the nickname of Private Law Enforcer?"

“What can you do if you just happened to run into me, old man?” Linley took a bite. The crispy skin, juicy meat and the seasoning of sour plum sauce really satisfied his Chinese stomach - oh, his stomach had been cut off when he traveled through time, and the current one was newly grown.

"To be honest, my original idea was to go on a paid trip. Who wants to get involved in so much trouble?" He tapped the plate in front of him with his chopsticks. "Besides, if there was a beautiful girl with long black hair and animal ears lying in front of you covered in blood, you would also feel compassion."

“Texas?” Xingxiong tilted his head and looked at Linley, who nodded.

"She was still called Celinina at that time?" the man uttered an extremely obscure pronunciation, "And I never thought that the B&B I booked with a local would be next door to a gangster boss from the East."

“I don’t think I need to elaborate on what happened after that, old man.” Linley looked at the silent Rat King. “After all, if I remember correctly, every day after that, I could feel people staring at me, as well as the intermittent sandstorms.”

"What about now? Are you really here to ensure the safety of Longmen?"

“That’s what they thought. I’m here for tourism.” Linley took out his passport and shook it. “Although you may not believe it, I’m really here for tourism… I was even arrested by your Mr. Chen as soon as I entered the country.”

"And the reason I got involved in this matter is because of the person next to me." He pointed at the hungry ghost who was showing off his food and wine.

"Then can I ask you what you think of the leaders of your Rhodes Island, whether it's Kal'tsit who is at loggerheads with Governor Wei, or that little girl who looks so young."

“First of all, although I don’t want to admit it, my direct leader is indeed that old woman with many secrets. I have never known what that woman is thinking, and I never care about it.” Lin Lei smiled and said, “After all, she is my savior, and I still owe her my life.”

"I can't say anything else, but she must be a good doctor...well, the best one in terms of both skills and quality."

"What about Amiya?" Lin Gerui drank the white wine in the glass in one gulp, and his originally frowned brows relaxed a lot.

“A brave, kind, and idealistic little girl.” Linley took the white wine handed to him by the Rat King and poured half a cup. “She is also the best leader I have ever met. After all, she really approved my vacation.”

......The junction between the Imperial Guard and Rhodes Island......

"You're late for Rhodes Island again." Chen frowned slightly and her eyes moved back and forth between Misha and the man with the sack over his head. Finally, she fixed her eyes on the little white-haired bear:

"Are you Misha?"

"It's me." Misha nodded. She had just experienced jumping off a building, an explosion, and acute infection with Originium disease. She looked sick, as if she could be blown away by a gust of wind. Amiya hurriedly supported her.

The little rabbit first looked at Razer behind him: "Ms. Razer... I want to ask if he is here?" Before Vayfan could answer, a strong male voice came from the side:

"Don't shout, I'm coming."

With extremely steady steps, a bearded man wearing Rhodes Island heavy combat uniform and sunglasses walked over slowly with a shield on his shoulder. "I was delayed a little by some thugs when I came here just now."

"Who is he?" Chen placed her hand on the scarlet sword. The oppressive feeling brought to her by this man in sunglasses was even more than that of the group of black men who once appeared at her doorstep.

"Ace, the heavy-duty operator of Rhodes Island." The man didn't care about the other person's actions at all. He even scratched his head and looked at Amiya: "Amiya, you want me to protect the unlucky guy with a sack on his head, right?"

"No, Mr. ACE, we hope you can stay with Miss Misha at all times to ensure her safety." Amiya gently pulled Misha, "And this is also the condition for us to hand Misha over to you, Officer Chen."

"What do you mean?" Chen narrowed her eyes, and the guards beside her raised their blast shields and stun batons. "It's your job to hand Misha over to us."

"That's right, but we don't trust you, Officer Chen." Amiya's fingertips flashed a black and red light. "Misha is an infected person, but the current actions of the Longmen Guard Bureau towards the infected do not allow us to safely hand Misha over to you."

"Besides, we are partners, not your subordinates." Jane added calmly, "And it is our condition that ACE stays with her, or we will go our separate ways."

"You guys!!!" Chen looked at the hooded man standing in the formation with some annoyance, "Your demands..."

"I don't think it's too much. After all, neither you nor Governor Wei told us what you were going to do with Misha." Jane put her hands on her chest. "We don't really care what Misha knows. To us, she is just a persecuted infected person."

"And rescuing these innocent people is exactly what we need to do." The doctor patted Amiya's shoulder and walked to the front of the battle: "I'll give you one minute to consult Governor Wei and Officer Chen... If you disagree, we don't mind leaving directly, and the agreement with Longmen will be invalidated. How about it?"

043. We are partners, not your subordinates!

"Make your choice, Officer Chen." Jane stood in front of all the Rhodes Island operators with his hands behind his back. "By the way, I would like to remind you that you only have thirty seconds to think and ask for instructions."

"No need, I agree... Commander Wei gave me full responsibility for the connection with you, so I naturally have the right to squeeze one more person in." Chen nodded with a rather grim expression. If it weren't for the fact that the two sides were still cooperating, she would definitely let this hooded woman understand why the flowers are so red!

"Then please go to Misha and this ace." Dragon Lady patted the shoulder of the guard beside her and said, "PC94172, keep an eye on this child and this man. If there are any problems, report them directly."

"clear."

As the Lungmen Guards got on the bus, Chen turned his head again and looked at Amiya and Jane: "You... are the doctor from Rhodes Island, right? The frontline commander?"
