After buying things, the three of them returned to the video store together, and Ling was very happy when she saw Ambi and Nekomata coming.
The main reason is that she has been really tired these days, and now someone is here to help share the burden, so of course she won’t refuse.
Because of his top-notch cooking skills, the food Zhe made was naturally eaten up.
"Phew, the food my brother cooked is so delicious. I'm a little full after eating it."
"Yeah, it's so delicious it's melting on my tongue, meow!"
While Ling and Nekomata were talking, Ambi noticed something was wrong.
"Zhe, you don't seem to have eaten much."
After hearing what Ambi said, the other two also looked over here, but Ling didn't seem to be worried about it.
"Who knows? Maybe brother has already 'eaten' before, so he's not hungry now."
When Ling said "eaten", she deliberately emphasized her tone. When Zhe heard this, he understood what his sister was hinting at.
"Don't worry about me. Once you're full, go take a shower. I'll eat later."
Zhe ignored his little sister's secret message. He didn't eat much for dinner, but he would be full soon.
The three of them didn't understand what Zhe meant. They just thought he was not hungry now and planned to eat later, and then they were "eaten".
After eating what he wanted, Zhe fell asleep peacefully like before, with a cute little kitten lying on his body while he was hugged by two people on each side.
But the next day, Nicole responded and said she would help contact them. During this period, another commission came to her.
In a coffee shop on Liufen Street, Zhe was sitting inside pretending to look at his phone, while not far behind him sat a man in a suit and a hat.
"Listen, old friend, you're the only one who can save me this time... Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll have to quit the industry!"
"Huh? It's so serious. Tell me what it is."
Zhe immediately became interested after hearing what the shepherd said. After all, it was rare to see the other party so anxious.
"Well, to make a long story short, I took on a big job, even at the risk of offending my colleagues, but I couldn't find a suitable rope maker to take it on.
This job involves a lot of work, and the client also requires to meet with the rope maker in person. Can you help me?"
The shepherd's almost pleading voice came from the side, and then he added another sentence, as if he was afraid that Zhe would refuse.
"Of course, to protect your information, I created a flawless fake identity for you."
"Well, well, since you said so..."
Hearing the shepherd's grateful voice, Zhe also agreed to the commission. After all, they were old friends, and the other party had asked him so much.
The meeting place was set in the parking lot behind the video store.
As for the code for the meeting, it was [Flame - Thunder]. He didn't think there was anything special about this code at first, until he met the client.
At night, when Zhe came to the parking lot behind the video store, he saw a white-haired girl in orange and black clothes and orange windshield glasses in the corner at first sight.
At this moment, the first person that came to his mind was Ambi, because the girl in front of him had many similarities with her.
"Brother, why are you suddenly motionless? Is there something wrong?"
At this time, Ling, who was on the line, sent a concerned voice. After Zhe came to his senses, he calmly replied "It's okay" and then walked forward.
"flame?"
"Well! Lei Ting, 2 minutes and 30 seconds, you are 2 minutes and 30 seconds late from the agreed meeting time."
"what?"
The girl's words after the secret code made Zhe slightly stunned, but she ignored them and continued speaking.
"You know what? This is a disciplinary offense that cannot be ignored in the defense force. No matter how good-looking you are, as punishment you will need to do 175 push-ups, or 87.5 one-handed push-ups."
Uh, actually, you don't need to emphasize that I'm good-looking...
Zhe complained silently in his heart, but couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
"So if we switch to one-handed handstand push-ups, how many should we do?"
"Ok?"
Zhe's words surprised the girl opposite. Unexpectedly, she actually thought about this issue seriously.
And this kind of personality makes Zhe feel familiar.
Chapter 77 Playing [Phaethon]
"Well, then logically, we should do 58.3333333... Ugh!"
"Um, are you okay?"
Seeing the girl in front of him suddenly smacking her lips, with a hint of pain on her face, it seemed that she must have bitten her tongue. Zhe asked with concern.
"It's okay. In the defense force, this injury is nothing. However, suggestions from civilians are sometimes worth pondering. Let's add handstand one-handed push-ups when we get back."
Actually, there is no need to be like this, I was just joking.
"Speaking of which, how do you do push-ups that aren't even an integer?"
Zhe was quite curious about this, and not just him. Ling on the other end of the line also specifically asked him to ask about it.
"The punishment for raising such superficial questions within the defense zone will be doubled, but managing civilians is not my responsibility, nor is it the purpose of my visit."
The girl paused when she said this, and when Zhe heard this, he was thinking, could it be that she deliberately left a 0.5 so that the punishment would be doubled?
At this time, the girl continued to speak.
"Since you are the rope maker introduced by the Shepherd, please remember that this conversation tonight never took place, and you have never met me. What I am about to say is absolutely confidential. You can call me Number 11."
Current favorability target:
Name: No. 11
Gender: Female
Charm value: 94 (P.S.: This charm value is determined by the author's own XP, so it may not be accurate.)
Characteristics: A straightforward girl who regards military rules as her life, and also has a little bit of middle school syndrome.
Hobbies: I like spicy food, cute kittens, and science fiction novels.
Current status: Calm, good
Current favorability towards the owner: 20
Evaluation: A girl who seems cold and serious, but can actually crack jokes. If you accidentally get her to agree to do something for you, then anything is fine as long as it doesn't cross the bottom line (please refer to the description in the characteristics).
Inner thoughts: What an interesting man, and he seems to make me feel a sense of crisis, not just a pretty vase.
After seeing the description given by the system, Zhe became a little more convinced.
This girl named No. 11 has many similarities with Ambi not only in appearance but also in personality.
"Hmm? You seem a little distracted. Are you thinking about how to introduce yourself? That's not necessary. The shepherd has already told me all your information."
Hearing this, the brother and sister also became interested. They also wanted to know how the shepherd had fabricated such a perfect fake identity.
However, after listening to No. 11's introduction, both of them couldn't help but fall silent.
What kind of exile was born in the south, and the name "Hermit with Crimson Eyes" is so funny that I don't know how to complain about it!
The other party actually believed such a completely tasteless name, but now that things have come to this, Zhe has no way to deny it.
"No...yes, that's my name."
"Well, to make a long story short, my commission is simple: to catch the traitor."
Then No. 11 briefed Zhe on the general content of the commission, and found out that there was a spy from a nearby rebel force who had infiltrated the army, and she had to pretend to betray the defense force according to the plan.
Although the other party still did not trust No. 11, at least the plan went smoothly. She also learned that the rebel particularly admired a rope maker in the industry.
As long as the rope maker can be found to help, the other party will be willing to take the next step immediately, let No. 11 participate in his secret mission, and introduce No. 11 to his superiors.
As for who it is, there is no need to say more...
"And this is the specific requirement of my commission—I need you to disguise yourself as the rope maker and help me complete the spy's instructions. Can you do it, 'Crimson Wing Messenger'?"
Uh, this isn't the name you just mentioned?
Zhe complained silently in his heart, but he seemed to have an answer to the role of the rope maker he was going to play, so he tentatively said
"Let me guess, the rope maker I'm going to play is not [Phaethon], right?"
"Hmm? You are truly ingenious. You guessed it so easily. It was the legendary rope maker. Even I, who know very little about ordinary people, have heard of his name."
No. 11's favorability increases by 5 points, the current favorability is 25 points, and the emotional value gains 100 points.
Putting aside the improvement in No. 11's favorability, Ling and Fairy are already in conversation.
"This is truly a challenge I've never received before..."
"Definitely. Impersonating [Phaethon] is indeed a task [Phaethon] has never accepted. Searching the entire internet, I pretended to be myself, and the results returned are: I sell myself, I beat myself, I kill..."
"That's enough, Fairy. You don't need to continue."
Ling stopped Fairy in time. After all, if she continued talking, she might not pass the review.
"Well, [Scarlet Horn Strategist], will this mission be troublesome for you?"
When Zhe heard what No. 11 called him, he really couldn't help it. Why was it getting weirder and weirder?
"Miss No. 11, do you...really remember my name?"
Unexpectedly, No. 11 ignored Zhe's question and continued talking on his own.
"No wonder. Even though you have your strengths, you are, after all, impersonating the legendary rope maker Phaethon. It's normal for you to feel pressured.
But since [Shepherd] has guaranteed you this with his professional reputation, I am willing to believe that you will not let me, the New Elydu Defense Force, and the entire New Elydu down. Relax."
When it came to the first paragraph, everything was still normal. I thought No. 11 would say some comforting words next, but who would have thought that it would put more pressure on people.
No. 11 said such a weighty statement so casually. If an ordinary person heard this, they would probably be so nervous that they would tremble.
However, Zhe felt okay about it, except that the other party's relationship with Ambi was something he was concerned about.
Just like the previous contact codes of fire and thunder, considering that the weapon used by Ambi has electric properties, and the No. 11 in front of him looks like he can wield a fire knife.
Forget it, let’s not talk about this for now. After learning that No. 11 had posted a commission on the rope network, the other party asked him to go back and confirm the commission first, and then set off after he was ready.
When Zhe went back, in order not to reveal that he lived in the video store, he could not go through the back door, so he had to go around to the front door to go home.
No. 11 and Ambi
Chapter 78 Mr. Mole
As soon as I entered the house, Ling came over with a questioning look.
"Brother, you're not going to have any thoughts about that client named No. 11 just because she's cute, are you?"
"Well, Ling, why do you feel that way? I never fall in love with everyone I meet, do I?"
Zhe held his forehead with his hand helplessly. If he really had that kind of idea, he would have dated countless women by now. How could there be only a few of them?
"Hmm? Really? I was hoping that if my brother could capture the other party, he would have some connection with the defense forces. Even if he was caught by accident, he might be able to get away with it."
"That won't happen. And even if it does, they should get involved with the Public Security Bureau, right?"
After hearing what Zhe said, Ling also looked as if she suddenly understood something, and then she had an expression that said, 'Brother, you already had a plan.'
Zhe was too lazy to explain too much. He could see that his sister was just joking, so he returned to the topic of the commission.
"I never thought we would receive a commission from the New Eilidu Defense Force, and it's such a confidential matter as catching a mole."
"Yes, completing this commission can also be considered as building a good relationship. How should I play Phaethon? Brother, is it like usual?"
"No, if I'm talking about acting, then I'm naturally more inclined towards roles that are seen by the public. Anyway, let's just accept the commission first."
As Zhe spoke, he logged into the rope net first. After accepting the commission from No. 11, the next step was to wait for the plan to be carried out.
After agreeing on a boot time through the HDD system, No. 11 set off for the target cave to prepare to contact the rebels.
"The spy will be online in 5 seconds. Call him 'Mr. Mole'."
