The cowboy just smiled bitterly at this.
There was no way. Alice's mother died early, and he was a man. There was a natural estrangement and generation gap between him and his daughter. It seemed reasonable that his relationship with his daughter would become strained.
Molly didn't intend to get involved in other people's housework. She offered suggestions and asked:
"Do you need our help finding someone?"
"Please."
The cowboy didn't refuse.
Now is not the time to refuse.
Molly nodded, then put on the mask, followed Chen Qi out of Cowboy's house, and walked towards Alice's school.
Alice's daily routine is very normal. She goes between school and home and rarely goes to places she shouldn't go.
Even if I don’t go home occasionally, I usually go to a nearby park or visit a friend’s house.
So if you look for her along the way, or find Alice's classmates at school, you can probably determine the girl's whereabouts.
Molly and Chen Qi acted together, and this was their first joint action. If the cooperation on the last commission was counted, then this was their second action.
Although they said they were acting together, they separated halfway through.
Chen Qi said that he was a sniper and was good at observing from high places, so he planned to find the nearest vantage point to see if there was any trace of the cowboy's daughter.
As for Molly, she went directly to the school to find someone, and the two of them had a clear division of labor.
Molly did not refuse Chen Qi's proposal. After she nodded in agreement, the two of them parted ways at a fork in the road.
Chen Qi locked onto a nearby high-rise building that was dozens of stories high, while Molly went to the school with Alice's photo.
The photo in his hand was of Alice when she was fourteen years old, which was a year ago.
The relationship between Cowboy and Alice also became strained a year ago, so Cowboy has no photos of Alice for the whole year.
But according to the cowboy, his daughter hasn't changed much, and he can find the fifteen-year-old Alice based on the fourteen-year-old photo.
The girl in the photo is very cute, with medium-length brown hair and lively green eyes.
The cheeks are a little chubby, but they have a lovely roundness that makes people want to pinch and knead them a few times to feel them.
He turned his head and looked towards the camera with a confused expression, as if he didn't expect someone to take a picture of him, and the picture froze there.
So cute...
Looking at the girl in the photo, Molly sighed in her heart.
Different from Molly's beauty, Alice Scott is the kind of cute girl who is full of spirit and vitality, like an elf born in the mountains and forests. When people see her, they can't help but say "cute".
It’s hard to imagine that such a cute elf-like girl is the daughter of a cowboy, since cowboys are not particularly handsome.
However, judging from the shape of her eyes, she looks very similar to a cowboy. I guess most of Alice's appearance was inherited from her mother.
But Alice is so beautiful, her mother must not be much worse, and such a woman would actually like a cowboy...
Shaking her head, Molly stopped thinking about those messy things and looked up at the campus in front of her.
She had arrived at where Alice went to school.
This is a private high school affiliated with the Segawa Group.
This is of course true, in this city, there are no public high schools, everything is private.
After all, this is a city under the rule of the group.
Children who study in private high schools of the Segawa Group will either enter universities affiliated with the Segawa Group after graduation, or go directly to work within the Segawa Group.
There is no option to exit the exam.
Correspondingly, other groups are not much different. Their high schools and universities are more like training bases for their employees than universities.
But having said that, this is a way for the people at the bottom of the chaotic city to climb up.
Although he was working for a large group after joining the Segawa Group, his starting point was already much higher than that of other people in the City of Chaos.
An ordinary employee of the Segawa Group has a higher status than Jim, a thug of the Skull Gang.
The difference is just that huge.
Molly stood at the school gate, attracting the attention of passers-by.
This is normal. Molly is wearing a red dress and a mask on her face. She doesn't look like a good person, so she will naturally attract the attention of passers-by.
After standing at the school gate for a while, Molly looked at the security guard at the door who was looking at her, her eyes flickering slightly.
Then he walked to an alley at the side, took off his red clothes, and revealed the black lining underneath.
She then tied the dress around her waist and took off her mask before walking out of the alley.
The moment she walked out, Molly seemed like a different person.
Molly usually behaves very coldly, especially when she becomes a mercenary. With her face covered, the coldness from her body can even freeze people.
But now Molly had a simple and even silly smile on her face. She came to the school gate like an ordinary child of her age.
The security guard at the door didn't seem to recognize Molly, and didn't know that she was the same person as the suspicious girl in red standing at the door just now. When he saw Molly trying to come in, he just stopped her as a matter of routine:
"Hey, where's your school uniform?"
He obviously mistook Molly for a student at school.
Molly stood at the door, winked at the security guard, and said to him with an embarrassed smile:
"Sorry... I'm not a student of this school. I... I just came to visit my sister and have dinner at home..."
"Your sister?"
"Yes, she is Alice Scott, oh and here is her picture."
Molly seemed to have just remembered something. She hurriedly took out the photo and showed it to the security guard, then asked, "Does the security guard know her?"
The security guard, who was already over 30 years old, couldn't help but smile when he heard Molly call him "brother".
He picked up Molly's photo and looked at it carefully. After thinking for a while, he replied:
"I seem to have seen this classmate before, but she left at noon after school. Didn't she go home?"
"Eh? Is that so..."
Molly showed regret and disappointment. She lowered her head and sighed helplessly, then raised her head and said sweetly to the security guard in front of her:
"I understand. Thank you, brother."
Then he picked up the photo and turned away.
The security guard smiled and watched Molly leave without any suspicion. He seemed to be still immersed in the joy of being called 'brother'.
But Molly, who left the school and walked into the alley, couldn't help but frown.
Although I came to school just to try my luck, I thought maybe Alice stayed in school during lunch break today, so I came here.
But I didn't expect that Alice had already left the school.
“Want to go look for it in a nearby park?”
Just as Molly was thinking this, she stopped.
She raised her head expressionlessly and looked forward, only to see that the exit of the alley ahead had been blocked.
Several bad boys in school uniforms stood there, staring at Molly with malicious smiles.
When Molly saw these bad boys, her first thought was not fear or trouble, but a sigh.
It seems that... no matter what kind of world it is, species like bad boys exist...

Bilibili PaLaDong——
OK, done.
Inside the alley, the corpses of the bad boys were lying all over the ground. Molly patted the non-existent dust on her palms and stepped on the body of the leader of the bad boys.
"Do you know you're wrong?"
Molly asked coldly, applying a little force on her feet.
Why would they rob her when there are so many other people to rob, and even wanted to do that kind of thing to her? Looking at the looks in these people's eyes, Molly almost vomited.
If it weren't for the fact that these guys were students, Molly would have probably cut off two taels of flesh from their lower bodies with her steel claws.
No, if I really want to do it, it's better to kick it to pieces. Cutting it off with a claw knife or something feels a bit disgusting.
Well, it will dirty your paws.
Molly, who is a bit of a germaphobe, thought so.
"We were wrong! We know we were wrong! Ahem—!"
The leader of the bad boys, a man with a rooster comb who looked older, apologized loudly.
He never expected that his routine extortion would hit a wall. Molly didn't look very old and didn't have a biochip implanted.
Molly used some strength on her feet, and then suddenly thought of something. She turned her eyes and put one hand on her knee, looking down at the bad boss and said:
"Since you know you're wrong, it's okay for you to do something for me, right?"
"You...you said...what do you want us to do?"
The bad boss endured the pain in his chest and abdomen and asked Molly with a smile.
Molly took out Alice's photo, placed it in front of the bad boss, and said:
"Do you know her?"
"Um... isn't she Alice from the first grade?"
"Ok?"
Seeing the bad boss mention Alice's name, Molly raised her eyebrows in surprise and asked, "Do you know her?"
"Of course she knows me. She's from the News Department. I heard she's offended a lot of people... Um, did she offend you?"
"No." Molly took back the photo and said, "Tell me about this in detail."
The bad boss didn't dare to hide anything and told Molly everything about Alice's situation.
Alice Scott is considered a celebrity in Segawa Branch High School, but her reputation is not very good. Or rather, all members of the news department of this high school have a not very good reputation.
The director of the news department of Segawa Branch High School is a third-year girl named Chikako Funaguchi. She is the daughter of a junior executive of the Segawa Group. In this school, there are very few people with a background comparable to hers.
And I don't know what's wrong with Chikako Funaguchi's brain, she dreamed of becoming a reporter, and then she set up this news department to report on the big and small things in the school.
She would even report some news outside the school.
Normally, even members of the news department should know which news can be reported and which cannot. Sometimes, the so-called news is just a means for those in power to fool the public.
Chika Funaguchi's father is a senior executive of the Segawa Group, and as a rich second-generation, she should know this truth.
But this guy really dares to report anything, such as someone from a certain grade, and relies on his strong background to bully newcomers.
Some teachers accepted bribes from some people.
He even dared to report the principal's affair with a female teacher.
Although the report was eventually dismissed, thanks to her "efforts", the matter is no longer a secret in the school.
If it were someone else, a troublemaker like Chikako Funaguchi would certainly be expelled from school.
But there was no way. The principal of this school was several levels lower than Chikako Funaguchi's father in terms of status and position, and he could do nothing to Chikako Funaguchi.
Because of Chikako Funaguchi's status and position, the members of her news department are also a group of troublemakers who are very good at causing trouble.
Alice Scott is one of them.
She is Chika Funaguchi's lackey... No, these are the original words of the bad boy, but in fact, she and Chika Funaguchi should be friends.
Because of this relationship, Alice dares to write and report anything.
But compared to Chikako Funaguchi, she has her own sense of propriety and will not report anything too extreme, such as gossip among teachers.
