Chapter 74: Undercurrents (from Hongyu's perspective)

While the Nian beasts were busy watching the surveillance video, Hongyu was on his way home.

"Penguin Logistics... eh... it's such a headache, such a headache."

As he walked, he kept mumbling something.

As for Kazdel, Hongyu felt that he might be able to make a trip. After all, he learned from Ishamara that he had been to the previous civilization. Now the only person he could think of who was related to the previous civilization was the white and green riddle cat.

Oh, yes, and there’s that old popsicle that I don’t know if it’s been frozen. Well, I’m curious whether he’s a man or a woman.

But... I'd better forget about going to Kazdel via logistics. I can just teleport there directly anyway.

The reason I asked Lao Li before was because I was used to being weakened when I was in Agol, and I almost forgot that I was also a disaster-level character at that time.

Although Penguin Logistics is currently the better option and can take Hongyu to Kazdel, he is more or less inexplicably resistant to the idea of Hongyu going to Penguin Logistics.

The reason is simple. After all, Lappland has already gone to the Lungmen Guard Bureau to work as a superintendent, and that 80% is related to himself.

As for Texas... Since there's a high probability that he'll get to know Lappland in the future, Texas will probably get to know her too...

Combined with Lapland's rather tough stance that day...

Eh? !

No! Did I forget something?!

As if he remembered something, Hongyu broke out in cold sweat on his forehead and back.

Didn't Lapland... unilaterally invite me to dinner? (By Chapter 31)

Oh, that's it. It's been so long since I traveled to Agor that I've forgotten about it... When I came back, I just went to Lao Li to get a free meal...

The more Hongyu thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong. The next moment, he clasped his hands together and prayed that Lappland would also forget about this matter. Although it was unlikely, after all, not everyone's concept of time was different from Hongyu's.

Hongyu: Girl, bah! The boy (old guy) is praying.

Meanwhile, in a restaurant on the other side, the white Luper police chief silently paid the bill and left with an expression of "as expected".

Lappland had a face that was neither sad nor happy.

Heh... Yu, how long are you going to hide from me?

……

……

……

In the Penguin Logistics staff dormitory, a Luper girl sneezed.

"Ah!"

"Texas, you still get cold?"

After the Luper girl sneezed, the red-haired angel who was playing games on the sofa next to her asked curiously.

"No, maybe it's because of that guy from yesterday... I thought I was desensitized to that guy."

Rubbing her nose, the girl called Texas said with an unhappy look on her face.

"Yesterday's... Oh! Is that the police inspector named Laplander who always catches you driving?"

The red-haired angel asked curiously, "She seems to have a special obsession with catching your car..."

"Yeah, that's outrageous. She was speeding herself and she still wanted to catch Texas's car. I say, Texas, did you provoke her in some way?"

The orange-haired girl from the Fengti tribe on the other side also had a look of curiosity on her face.

"Huh... don't think too much about it. She and I just... have a feeling of being enemies on a narrow road."

Texas touched his ears helplessly, then sat down on the sofa.

"But...what exactly did she come to you to talk about yesterday?"

Seeing that Texas didn't seem to have much resentment towards the white-haired police chief who came to his door yesterday, and just had a helpless mood, the red-haired angel asked this.

"Eh? Yeah, yeah! I'm curious too! When she came to your house yesterday, I thought we were in trouble again. I was almost scared to death."

"Exiac, Croissant, there are some things... don't ask too much, or the water level of the Dragon Gate River across the sky might rise because of you joining us."

“Huh!?” ×2.

Texas looked at Exia and Croissant silently, but after she said this sentence that had the atmosphere of a mafia boss, she chuckled first.

"Ha, well, it's nothing important actually."

Texas chuckled twice and asked, "Do you remember why I first came to Longmen?"

"Um... to find a new life? And to find that irresponsible bastard who abandoned you and ran away?"

The Archangel asked tentatively.

"Almost, but it's more about finding a certain guy. Because based on his occasional slips of the tongue, Lappland and I can infer that he will appear at Longmen later."

Texas reminisced, then silently pulled out a pack of Pocky.

She took out a Pocky, put it in her mouth and chewed it slowly.

"And when Lappland came yesterday, she was telling me that she had found a clue about the person we were looking for."

"Isn't that a good thing?"

Exiah was curious. "Then why did you look so sad after that Lappland police inspector came to see you?"

"Because she ran away."

Texas said bitterly, "She plans to share the information with me tomorrow."

"Eh?"

Although Texas didn't know that Lappland didn't succeed.

……

……

……

Dayanlongmen, where the year beasts gather.

"found it!"

Nian shouted out with a look of joy.

"Where is where?"

When Nian stood up and cheered, Ling came over and took the terminal from Nian's hand and started to look at it.

"Hey, this, this! Look, is that old guy Yu going in this direction?"

Nian pointed at the screen of the terminal. A man who looked very familiar to the Nian beasts present was walking slowly in a certain direction with a bag of candied haws.

"That's right... He is Yu. Da Yan probably can't find another person with a face like this who is also addicted to candied haws..."

Xiye on the side nodded in affirmation.

"Then let's not delay any further. Let's seize this opportunity and find out where he lives right now."

Shu on the other side suggested.

"Okay, huh, it's finally over. I'll soon find that guy who just left without saying a word!"

A face full of energy.

Huhuhuhu——Old man, you can’t run away now.

I'm very curious. Now that we know that you are living in seclusion in Longmen, where can you run to if we come to your door together?

With a vicious smile, Nian continued to look for the specific location of Hongyu.

Chapter 75: Hongyu, Don’t Open the Door (Fog)

When Hongyu returned home, he suddenly felt a chill down his spine as if he was being targeted by someone, although he didn't know what he had done to deserve such attention.

Is An Suo going to sneak over to my place to buy goods again?

You little bastard, next time I catch you I will definitely send you to Lappland so she can teach you a lesson!

Uh... after thinking about it carefully, I'd better forget it. I guess if I go there with Anso, I will be scolded by Lappland for breaking the appointment.

But that doesn't make sense. I never got this chill down my spine when she came to steal from me before. What the hell did she run into today? Did I forget to check the almanac again?

Hongyu was puzzled and had to attribute the cause of this incident to the recent atmosphere in Longmen.

Speaking of which, the atmosphere in Longmen seems to have become a bit serious recently, and there's a feeling that a storm is about to come... I don't know why.

Out of curiosity, Hongyu, who had not bought a newspaper recently because of too many things happening during his time travel, opened the terminal and began to browse what major events were about to happen in Longmen.

The news headlines in Longmen City immediately told Hongyu the answer.

【Major events in the development of Yanwu diplomacy! 】

Ursus leader Tallulah intends to arrive in Longmen in the fifteenth day. Her leader will negotiate directly with Longmen Mayor Wei Yanwu. This may lead to a complete severance between the new Ursus and the old Ursus Empire.

There is a lot of extravagant writing at the end of this article, such as "After establishing diplomatic relations with Yan State, the negotiations with Longmen may have completely opened up the communication channel between Ursus and Yan State."

What is "witnessing the historic moment of the development of friendly exchanges and diplomacy between Yanwu"?

In short, Hongyu could see one thing from the words between the lines of this article - Tallulah was coming to Longmen.

And the next moment, Hongyu thought of the letter he received from Tallulah before the establishment of the Integration Movement.

"Could it be... the same as Lappland... that they know I'm at Lungmen?"

Thinking of this, Hongyu suddenly scratched his head in confusion.

It shouldn't be... right?

"Knock knock knock..."

When Hongyu was about to rationally analyze the question "What is the probability that Tallulah knew that he lived in Longmen", the door of his grocery store was knocked at that time of night.

"Who is it? The door is closed now."

Hongyu replied casually.

Although some people would come to his grocery store to buy things at night, they would usually not knock on the door again after Hongyu replied like this, but would wait until tomorrow to buy.

But this time it was different.

After Hongyu shouted that, the person outside the door seemed to quiet down a bit, but not even a minute later, the knocking on the door became even more intense than the last time.

Is there anyone who needs my help with something urgent?

Seeing that the knocking on the door was getting more and more anxious, Hongyu suddenly remembered that he seemed to have a personality that often helped his neighbors.

"Come on, come on, stop knocking."

But when he stood up from the sofa and slowly walked towards the door, he seemed to have an inexplicable feeling of palpitations. The chill on his back that he had felt after being stared at by someone became more and more obvious as he got closer to the door.

That strange feeling was as if it was saying, "Hongyu... don't open the door..."

Should I say at this point, "There's clearly a smell of XX outside the door?"

Damn, I'm not a fool, is there any door that I can't open?

With this idea in mind, Hongyu, who believed himself to be a materialist, opened the door.

And outside the door... were the New Year's Eve, Linghe millet that had already been prepared.
