The city Ling and I live in is called New Eridu. Fortunately, it is a city that still exists and has the ability to deal with the "Hollow" disaster.

The reason why it is called New Eridu is that the original Eridu fell in the void disaster, and the current Eridu was rebuilt.

The culprit behind the fall of Old Eridu was Carlos Arna, the senior research director of the Helios Agency.

Putting aside the "wait" for now, Carlos Arna is the target of Ling and me.

Oh, don't get me wrong, the goal is not to bring this big sinner to justice, but to clear her name. Ling does not believe that the "Fall of the Old Capital" incident was really caused by Carlos.

Because in the world setting, Carlos is the teacher who adopted the siblings Zhe and Ling, the protagonists of Zero Zone, and she also saved them during the "Fall of the Old Capital" incident, so naturally the two had no reason to doubt her.

As for the actual situation... I just finished the 1.4 plot and I'm already suspicious of this woman.

I am still keeping my eye on the details, but for now I will just make clearing her name one of my goals in the Zero World. After all, I don't have anything else to do in this world.

People always have to have some goals.

Oh, by the way, I also need to introduce my profession in this world, rope maker.

To put it simply, there are many people in New Eridu who seek profit from the void. Although the void is a hazard to the world, the "ether resources" within the void have become essential for the prosperity and development of New Eridu.

In addition to the New Elidu officials, there are also many cave thieves in New Elidu who secretly enter the cave to make a profit.

However, a cave is a place where people can easily get lost. Most people cannot get out once they enter. Therefore, a profession has emerged that specializes in leading people through caves - the rope maker.

Yes, to put it bluntly, I'm just a guide, no big deal, so that's all I have to say about myself. It would be a waste of time to say more.

In short, you just need to understand one thing, that is, Ling and I are the legendary rope maker Phaethon who has been abandoned and started over. We are the strongest guides and are very respected. That's it, OK.

Anyway, just give a brief introduction to the background setting, it’s not a very important thing.

What really matters is Nicole who appears before me now.

really big.

truth.

"Huh... finally here! Why are all the drivers in the city driving so slowly? Not even half the speed of the outer ring road!"

"Well, the speed limit in the city is only half of the speed limit on the outer ring road. Nicole..." Ling asked cautiously, "You're not speeding all the time, are you?"

"What?!" Nicole was shocked. "Damn it, I've been driving in and out of the Outer Ring Road so often lately... Luckily I removed my license plate before entering the city, so the ticket can't be sent to my house."

"This is much more serious than speeding! Don't attract the traffic officers to our house!"

Hey, wait, Ling, what you have been saying is my line!

I looked at Ling with disbelief. I couldn't believe that after stealing the leading role from me, she even wanted to steal my lines as her brother. Is there such a sister in this world?

Although I'm too lazy to say this kind of lines according to the plot, it's one thing for me not to say it, but it's another thing for you to steal my lines just because I didn't say it!

Intolerable!

So I decided to be a plot spoiler!

"Alright, enough talk, let's head to the Outer Ring right now. Nicole and I are the only ones going, though. Ling, please stay home this time."

"Ah? Brother, are you going?" Ling asked in surprise, "How come my brother, who is always so lazy, is so diligent this time?"

Of course it’s to take revenge on you!

If you dare to steal my lines, I will steal your leading role. Let’s see who can win!

"This time the situation is different. Ling, no matter what happens then, you don't have to worry about me. I will handle it properly."

"Wait, brother! How can I feel at ease if you say that?"

"Oh, don't worry. I have Nicole from the Cunning Rabbit House here. She will definitely protect the rope maker's safety."

"The heart is good, and the ending is good, but Nicole, what you did is really not very reliable."

"Ah? I can't pretend I didn't hear that! I, Nicole, am not doing things prudently? If this gets out, it will affect the business of the Cunning Rabbit House!"

"If you're really reliable, then the money you owe will be waived. If you're not reliable enough, then use your breasts to apologize."

"Huh? Haha, I didn't expect you, the rope maker, to have such feelings for me? No problem, if it's you, the rope maker, then it's not impossible... As long as you can help me pay off all my debts, I can consider it."

"Brother~, you're not just trying to get some time alone with Nicole so you finally want to stretch your lazy body, right?"

"Anyway, this matter is settled. Let's go, Nicole."

Xing Jianya’s legs, Yue Chengliu’s breasts, all of these are waiting for me!

I have a feeling that tonight I will have a very wonderful night.

absolute.

...But before that, I have to go back to my room and lock my door. Otherwise, it would be troublesome if Ling accidentally broke into the room and saw Sakura.

Volume 140: Chapter : Being innocent is quite cute

"...In short, although I'm the CEO of Vision Industrial, I'm actually just a figurehead! Sarah is in charge of the company's long-term business plans! Including the old subway reconstruction project! And the reason she dares to do such dangerous things is because she has Bullinger's backing! They never let me participate in the formulation of the plan, and only tell me what to do at the end - they even make me eat in the staff cafeteria!"

Bullinger is the sheriff. Simply put, he is the "political" in the collusion between government and business, and a high-ranking official in the Sheriff's Bureau.

This kind of thing is not very important. I listened to Perlman's words very casually. After all, I just played this storyline, and I really don't have much interest in going through it again, even in virtual reality.

So, I just said impatiently: "Where's the evidence? Just tell me."

"Yes, yes! Of course there is evidence! Ever since I realized their plans were becoming increasingly dangerous, I've been keeping an eye on them! Although I'm only the CEO in name only, I'm still the CEO after all, and I have to sign many documents related to external business! Before the reconstruction of the old subway, I kept a paper backup of every plan and email Sarah handled! - I prepared it while I was being sent to the employee cafeteria for lunch!! I mixed the backups in with various construction instructions. As long as I can find them, I can find evidence of her communication with Bullinger in the correspondence, or perhaps find the account used for financial and information transactions!"

"I can see that you really mind being sent to the staff cafeteria." I couldn't help but complain.

Nicole, however, was unconcerned. Instead, she said with some surprise, "If there's such evidence, it would be very convincing indeed. Rope Maker, I remember you have a good relationship with Baiji Heavy Industry, right?"

"What? You know that company that has more bears than people and more machines than bears? Great! That makes it easier!"

I nodded casually: "Okay, okay, I will contact Baizhi Heavy Industry."

So no matter what the plot is, I'm already tired of it. Why hasn't Ya come yet?

To put it simply, the plot is nothing more than a series of events triggered by Envision Industrial, which was too lazy to even carry out demolition and planned to blow up all the people who needed to be relocated.

The Cunning Rabbit House team worked hard to save those people, exposed the scandal of Vision Industries, and arrested Perlman, the CEO of Vision Industries. However, they found that there was a deeper inside story.

And now is the time to get to the bottom of it.

Okay, I've finished introducing what needs to be introduced, so what about Ya?

In this plot, Nicole knew how difficult the road ahead would be, so she mobilized her connections and invited four members of Anti-Aircraft Section 6.

Star sees Ya.

Moon City Willow.

Cang horn.

Asaba Yuma.

Let’s not talk about the fact that Nicole from the Cunning Rabbit House, an illegal cave thief, actually dared to ask official personnel for help, and don’t worry about the crisis that I, a rope maker who is also an illegal person, will face in the future. In short, the reason why I came to this outer ring is to deal with the head of the Air Section 6, Hoshimi Masaru.

So where is she? Why hasn't she come yet?

Hoshimi Masaru, the head of the Sixth Section of the Anti-Void Special Operations Department, is also the heir to a famous military family in New Erito and the youngest "Hollow Hunter" in history.

Don’t ask what a Hollow Hunter is, just think of him as the admiral in One Piece.

Anyway, it means the official strongest combat power.

This is not the point, the point is Ya's black stockings.

I like sexy flesh-colored black stockings, but I also want to try Ya's slender yet powerful black stockings. I want to try it~!!

Oh, it's finally here.

With my Observation Haki activated, I immediately felt the five auras rushing towards me.

With such a sudden and rapid speed, there was no doubt that it was Paipai driving her small truck over here.

Didi——!

As expected, accompanied by a loud car horn, a small truck with the words "Zhu Tu Meng Jin" written on it drove into the open space where everyone was. A cute child with sleepy eyes peeked out from the driver's window: "Hmm, just in time. Thank you for taking the Zhu Tu Meng Jin special bus. Guests have arrived at the station~"

Paipai, a member of the Sons of Calydon, the new overlord of the Outer Ring, is my good teammate of Colleen.

But let me apologize for now, my attention was attracted by Hoshimiya who got off the truck.

Her black stockings have a different feel from Keqing and Ganyu's.

It was an attraction like darkness that made my eyes glued to it and I couldn't move them away.

"Hey, Ropemaker, close your eyes." Nicole elbowed me twice. "That's Xuju. If he gets hacked to death, don't blame me for not warning you."

"Aren't girls wearing black stockings just for people to see? What's wrong with me admiring them? Is that a crime?"

"Looking at black stockings isn't a crime, but you already have other sins! If you want to see black stockings, I'll show them to you when we get back. But for now, be careful."

makes sense.

I withdrew my gaze from the black silk pantyhose, raised my head to look at Xing Jianya's face, and asked calmly, "Look at your black silk pantyhose for free, right?"

"What do you think?" Nicole rolled her eyes at me and said matter-of-factly, "Of course I spent money!"

"I'm sorry, I despise your pantyhose. You can continue to wear your knee-high black stockings with a hole on one leg. They look good too."

"What do you mean by a hole? I call this a trend! It's called fashion!"

"Hellish. How can you call it fashionable if you rip the holes yourself? It's fashionable only when a man rips a woman's stockings."

"I really didn't realize it before. Is your head full of dirty shit?"

At this point, seemingly unable to bear being ignored by Nicole and me, Hoshimaya spoke in a slightly cold tone, "Nicole of the Cunning Rabbit House, you didn't ask me here just to watch you flirt with a man, did you? If you answer 'yes,' I'm afraid I'll have to practice arresting cave thieves."

At this time, Yue Chengliu also looked at me and said with a smile, "It's a surprise to meet you here. Your Excellency, the head of the independent investigation team... do you have any side jobs?"

"Ah, yes, I have a side job as a rope maker. Or rather, the Independent Investigation Team is my side job."

"Hey! Really? Are you admitting it just like that?"

"You didn't really think I could hide it when you called Anti-Aircraft Section 6? You underestimated their expertise."

"Ahem, don't worry, with my connections, you'll be fine."

I looked at Nicole who said this, and couldn't help but raise my hand to touch her head. I looked at her with the same eyes I looked at Aqua, and said with pity:

"You are indeed quite cute when you are naive."

Volume 141: Chapter : Hoshimi Ya

The four members of Air Section 6 began to interrogate Perlman. During this time, I had copied all the people I wanted to copy, and I had nothing to do and wanted to go home.

No, no, this idea is too tedious. I can't let my head be filled with all that dirty crap! Plot, I should be going through the plot now!

Anyway, there's only so much plot left in Zone Zero. After that, I can do whatever I want. There's no need to rush. There's no need to rush!

By the time I had cheered myself up and gathered my spirits, the interrogation of Perlman by Section 6 of Air Defense had already concluded, and everyone came over naturally.

"Are you done with the interrogation? You're quick, as expected of an elephant."

Hearing Nicole's words, Xing Jianya tilted her head in confusion: "Elephant? I'm a fox Xiren."

"It's just a metaphor." I explained to Hoshimiya, "Nicole mentioned a cruel law of the food chain in nature before: rabbits eat mice, wolves eat rabbits, tigers eat wolves, elephants eat tigers, and mice eat elephants. Then she put you in the position of the elephant, and I think it's surprisingly apt."

"Excuse me, this isn't the law of the food chain in nature; it's the rules of the game of Beast Chess." Yue Chengliu rolled his glasses, his expression calm and his tone steady as he interrupted, "The laws of nature are far more complex than the rules of the game."

"This kind of thing isn't important!" Nicole waved her hand. "What were the results of the interrogation? I wasn't kidding, was I? There really is something shady going on behind Vision Industries, and Sheriff-in-Chief Bullinger is the mastermind!"

Yue Chengliu shook her head slightly. "You're accusing Sheriff Bullinger of a crime, while the information provided by the tainted witness only suggests that the principal offender is someone else. The two implications are completely different."

"Oh my, thank you for your professional advice, Miss Monitor, but your incomprehensible explanations won't help us make decisions about our future actions!"

In response to Nicole's playful retort, Xing Jianya said seriously, "I don't understand Liu's professional explanation, but I trust her judgment unconditionally. The conspiracy behind Yuanjing Industrial needs further investigation."

"Ah."

"Are you smirking?! You just gave me an 'I won' expression and smirked, right?!" Nicole glared at Yue Chengliu.

"Haha, no, I was just pushing my glasses up. You must have seen it wrong." Yue Chengliu put away the smug expression and said seriously.

Facing Yue Chengliu's attitude, the cat from the Cunning Rabbit House couldn't help but sneer in support of the boss, Nicole: "Huh, you must not have had many friends in school, meow?"

"Hahaha." Asaba Yuma also walked over and said with a smile: "I also think that the deputy section chief must have been the type of academic nerd who was only spoiled by teachers when he was a student~" - this sentence was not finished yet.

"enough."
