Zhe originally planned to settle Qimingxing first and then deal with the gang, but he didn't expect the other party to act so quickly and came to him that afternoon.
He took out his cell phone and was about to contact Zhu Yuan, but at this moment, a black shadow only half the size of his body ran over at high speed.
"Hmm? Kaminos."
"Ah! Long time no see, Zhe-ge!"
Bomb, dressed in the uniform of the Sheriff's Department, greeted Zhe. Since he had helped him several times before, the former seemed accustomed to his appearance.
After learning more about it, he found out that the other party has also been investigating the Black Anchor Gang recently. Zhe wanted to help immediately after hearing this, but Qimingxing beside him was a little worried.
"Zhe, why don't you just forget it and hand it over to the sheriff. The sheriff's office will make them receive the punishment they deserve, but please don't put yourself in danger, okay?"
Qimingxing grabbed Zhe's arm, and her pleading look was hard to refuse, especially for her, who would rather be threatened than put her rope maker in danger.
The last thing I want to see is someone important to me getting hurt.
"Okay, I promise I won't put myself in danger."
That's right, there is no danger to me, so it doesn't count as putting myself in danger.
Chapter 350: Lulling the Morning Star to Sleep
But it was already late, so Zhe decided to take Qimingxing to find a place to rest for the night.
The original plan was to stay in a hotel, but the latter decided to go home because there was no room for the three pets at home.
When Qimingxing returned home, she felt relieved to see her three pets safe and sound. Today's experience had been quite frightening for her, but fortunately...
"Thank you, Zhe. It's great to have you with me."
Because of the previous shock and the sense of security that Zhe brought, Qimingxing held his hand tightly all the way, but even so, she still tried her best to show the image of a mature and steady sister.
"You deserve this. Get some rest. I think you'll be fine by tomorrow."
"and many more……"
Qimingxing reached out and grabbed Zhe who turned around and wanted to leave, and after realizing her actions, her face turned slightly red.
"Wait a minute... If it's possible... could you stay a little longer? Of course, if it's too much trouble..."
Because I have always been treating Zhe as his elder sister, I can’t help but feel a little embarrassed to say such words now.
Zhe naturally would not refuse this. It was still early before the agreed time for action, enough time to coax Qimingxing to sleep first.
However, Qimingxing, who successfully kept Zhe, did not intend to stop there. When love is deep, accidents are inevitable.
(In fact, the description of Morning Star is not complete. In the original story, she was afraid to entrust the difficult commission to the new rope maker.
Therefore, she had accumulated a lot of commissions, and it was the appearance of the protagonist that helped solve this problem and helped her establish a reputation in the industry.
This improved her income, and she no longer had to work part-time to apologize to her clients for mistakes made by her fellow rope makers. This also gave her the courage to continue working in this line of work.
After a long time, Zhe, who was lying on the bed of Qimingxing, realized that the person next to him was already asleep, so he quietly got up and left.
But when he came back, he noticed that the bedding and pillows were messier than when he left, and thought that the other person's sleeping posture was not good.
But when Zhe lay down on the bed again, Qimingxing quickly hugged him tightly, and they arrived peacefully the next morning.
Qimingxing, who had just woken up, was obviously still a little shy. He had originally treated the new rope maker as his younger brother, but it turned out to be like this...
Why do I suddenly feel guilty about being an old cow eating young grass?
Qimingxing held his hot cheeks and thought to himself. Seeing this, Zhe didn't say anything, but got up and made breakfast as usual.
Then, Qimingxing, who was sitting at the dining table, never took his eyes off Zhe and had a happy smile on his face.
"If you don't eat it now, it will get cold."
"Oh, okay, okay."
Qimingxing felt a little embarrassed after being reminded and took out his mobile phone to try to divert his attention.
"Eh? Zhe, look! The Black Anchor Gang was wiped out in one fell swoop. It must have been done by the Public Security Bureau, right? That's amazing!"
"Yeah, now I can finally rest assured."
Zhe nodded without surprise. One night was more than enough to wipe out a small gang, but Qimingxing became even more suspicious when he saw this.
But she didn't say much. But after seeing her mother's message, Qimingxing suddenly thought that if she told her about Zhe, she would definitely be very happy.
While she was hesitating, she suddenly felt something touching her lips. She subconsciously put it into her mouth and chewed it.
"Delicious! Um... Zhe, why are you..."
"I saw you were replying to messages, so I came to feed you."
Zhe said this and brought the spoon to her mouth again. Qimingxing wanted to refuse, but she couldn't resist the former.
The warm breakfast time was over, and Zheben planned to go out for a walk with Qimingxing, but at this moment someone rang the doorbell.
There was a timid girl outside the door. Qimingxing was a little surprised when he saw her, but then he felt worried.
"It's you. What's the matter with you coming here so suddenly? Is it because the client is causing trouble for you?"
"No, no, I'm just worried about you, sister, so I came to see you."
When the girl saw that Qimingxing was fine, she first breathed a sigh of relief. When she noticed Zhe standing beside her, she was a little surprised, but that only lasted for a while.
"Actually... I've been wondering if I'm too timid and not suitable to be a rope maker. If I hadn't given up and followed them to finish the job..."
"No! You did the right thing. You must do the same thing next time you encounter something like this! I can guarantee it.
Even a rope maker like Phaethon would make the same choice as you if faced with such a situation."
Before the girl could finish her words, Qimingxing interrupted her firmly and took out the news just now to reassure her.
"No matter how terrifying a gang is, they're still afraid of the Public Security Bureau. Just follow the Star Hand Strategy. No matter what happens next, I'll help you deal with it~"
"Really? Thank you! I'll try my best to make the order!"
The girl seemed to have taken a reassurance pill, and then left happily without disturbing him any further.
"She's the rope maker who gave up the Black Anchor Gang's commission, right?"
"Yes, actually I should have kept the identities of all rope makers secret, but if it's you, it's okay to know."
Qimingxing smiled and confirmed Zhe's words. His trust in the latter could no longer be expressed in words.
"Let's go to Epes Harbor, enjoy the sea breeze, and see the scenery. I'll get back to work later."
After agreeing to a date with Qimingxing, they stayed together until almost noon, and then they parted ways.
But on the way back, Zhe accidentally ran into Evelyn who was preparing medicine.
"Zhe, I didn't expect to meet you here."
Perhaps because she saw the person she wanted to see, a slight smile appeared on Evelin’s cold face, but Zhe’s eyes were on the bag in the former’s hand.
"Why did you buy so many medicines? Are you injured?"
"No, just some spare medicines, just a habitual replenishment."
Evelyn signaled to Zhe not to worry, but took a look at the contents of the bag: trauma medicine, gauze, painkillers… They were more like preparations for battle than backups.
As if she could see what Zhe was thinking, Evelin started to explain again.
“Well, some of them are used regularly, and as for the others… they are old injuries that occasionally remind me that they are still there.
It's nothing serious, just take care of it. So, as for medicine, I always feel safer with extra supplies."
"An old injury? Is it serious? Why didn't you ever tell me?"
Zhe’s sudden serious tone surprised Evelin, and she understood that the former was concerned about her, but she was already used to this kind of injury.
Chapter 351 Evelin, can I touch it?
"The pain won't go away just because I talk about it. Besides, I'll forget about it when I get busy with work."
"Do you need me to help you apply the medicine?"
How could Zhe accept Evelin's nonchalant attitude? He couldn't take care of his body like this.
He had intended to take the opportunity to apply medicine to help heal the wound, after all, close contact would be more effective, but Evelin blushed and shook her head when she heard it.
"No need, I've always dealt with it myself. Besides, letting others see my wound..."
Having said that, she looked at Zhe again, hesitated for a while, and then spoke again.
"However, if I just tell you where I was injured, it doesn't seem to be a problem. Do you really want to know?"
"Well, I want to know."
"Oh well."
Seeing Zhe's determination, Evelin slowly took off her coat and recounted the injuries she had sustained from falls during training and gunshot wounds from missions...
She told them one by one, and now these wounds have recovered a lot, with only faint pink marks left.
Although she deliberately avoided his gaze, there was a barely perceptible warmth in her eyes.
"Can I touch it?"
"W-what?!"
"Ahem, sorry, that's a bit presumptuous of me to say that. Is there any other wound Evelin has that occasionally makes you uncomfortable? I can help you take care of it."
Zhe did not act rashly. After listening to his explanation, Evelin, who was a little stunned just now, fell into deep thought, and then nodded with an evasive look.
After getting the consent, Zhe immediately reached out and touched a conspicuous wound.
As their skin touched, Evelin immediately felt a tingling sensation there, accompanied by a slight warmth flowing into her body.
The comfortable feeling made her feel a little strange, but she suppressed it by pursing her lips, but her cheeks still turned slightly red.
As she took her hand away from the wound, the feeling of comfort came to an abrupt end, which made Evelin feel a little disappointed.
But this feeling didn't last for a while, Zhe touched another wound and the comfortable feeling emerged again.
After repeating this several times, the wounds on the arms and parts of the back had been treated.
Those places where scars once existed have now returned to their original state, the skin has become crystal white, without any flaws.
"These areas have healed, but the other wounds..."
"Hmm... No, that's not necessary. You've already helped me a lot by getting here. I rarely talk about these things, but... with your help, it doesn't feel so heavy anymore."
Evelin, who had been suppressed for a long time, accidentally made some noises when she spoke again. In order to avoid embarrassment, they both tacitly chose to pretend nothing happened.
"Evelyn is really strong."
"Strong? Maybe. But more often than not, I think it's luck. Even though it may sound a little strange to say this, I don't hate these scars."
"why?"
"Because they are proof of every step I've taken... the injuries I've suffered and the blood I've shed over the years have made me who I am today—
I am someone who can protect those I want to protect. Without these experiences, I wouldn't have the strength I have now, wouldn't be able to cope with those difficulties, and wouldn't have the life I have today.
There will be no chance to meet the lady, and you."
When she said this, Evelin paused, her eyes only showing Zhe's appearance, and then she spoke again.
"How should I put it? These injuries that remind me that I'm lucky seem to have taken on a different form, becoming more profound. But don't worry, they're not painful..."
Evelyn's favorability increased by 2 points, and the current favorability is 92 points. 500 emotional points were gained, and the current emotional value is 43600 points.
After the subsequent conversation, Zhe also learned that Evelin happened to have plenty of free time today.
"In that case, do you want to go play [Gold Finger] together?"
"What is the Golden Finger?"
Zhe's invitation touched upon Evelin's blind spot in knowledge. After Zhe's explanation, she finally understood that it was the name of the video game store near the video store.
"Well, there used to be a lot of those kinds of shops, but nowadays they're rare. I want to go. Actually, I didn't have the chance to have fun there when I was a kid, and I still feel really bad about it. Since you invited me today, it's a good opportunity for us to go together."
The two took the subway to Liufen Street, but as soon as they arrived at the station, Evelin looked at Zhe beside her a little embarrassedly, and seeing this, the latter spoke in confusion.
"what happened?"
"Just now the lady sent me a message asking me where I was. I'm not good at lying to her, so I told her that I was here to play.
She was grumbling on the Knock Knock that we were sneaking out to play without her, so I invited her along too. Is that okay?
