Poseidon in Tomorrow's Ark

"No, I just roughly know what this commission is about." Xiyue put down her arms.

"What?" The Archangel looked carefully at the house over there, but found nothing.

"Okay, nothing." Xiyue said casually.

"That should be Bai Xue, right? Has the emperor already talked to Wei Yanwu? But why did you ask me to come and see the slums? Or...?"

Xiyue slightly opened the perception circle. She would not normally do this because it involved some privacy issues. Another reason was that it would be very noisy to put this thing in a downtown area.

When Xiyue expanded her perception circle a little, she discovered several people hiding in the houses around the warehouse.

Two of them in particular, one was holding a huge triangular shield, and the other was swinging a slender dragon tail.

"Penguin Logistics, it's you again!" A loud shout suddenly came.

The sudden shout and the familiar tone almost made Angelus lose his grip on the gun. He quickly put the gun down and put on a smiling face: "Officer Chen, what a coincidence."

Texas jumped down from the second floor at this time: "It's a bit unlucky."

"Really? That's really a bit unlucky."

Chen looked at the three people in front of him who were not nervous at all, and shouted impatiently: "Shut up! We received a report that someone is smuggling dangerous goods here. You'd better tell the truth."

At this time, Xingxiong came over with a shield in hand: "You guys again, um, who is this?"

Xiyue smiled, raised her hand and greeted, then showed her work badge on her chest.

"I'm new at Penguin Logistics, please give me some advice?"

"Newbie?" Xingxiong glanced at his work badge. "Oh, I hope it won't be as troublesome as these few now, otherwise Lao Chen's blood pressure will be high for a long time again."

This is a police officer sticking his head out from the second floor: "Officer, the things are not there. It seems that they were taken away just now."

Chen heard the police officer upstairs answer: "Huh? Is there a problem? Look more carefully."

The police officer upstairs looked helpless: "Officer, really not. It seems that the consignee has been waiting here for a long time, and took the goods away as soon as there was a commotion."

"Tsk..." Chen looked at the three Penguin Logistics guys who were whispering and not showing any tension with an unhappy look on his face. "Did you get fooled? Hey, what's in it?"

Texas replied calmly: "Penguin Logistics doesn't care about this. The client was very determined at the time and did not allow us to conduct an inspection. He has also paid the additional amount."

"The same thing again." Chen was helpless about the situation. The goods were not caught again. Two of the three Penguin Logistics duo in front of him were typical hard-working people. Obviously, they caught nothing again this time.

"Okay, Lao Chen, calm down." Xingxiong patted Chen's shoulder, turned to the three people and said, "Let's go, let's go, wait for your people to take you back."

"Oh, by the way, if anything goes wrong later because of this matter."

Texas nodded and said, "If there is any problem with Longmen due to this shipment, Penguin Logistics will take care of all the aftermath."

After hearing what Texas said, Xingxiong nodded and told the police officers to go home.

————City Lord’s Mansion————

Bai Xue flipped in through the window.

"You're back so early?" Wen Yue, who was working at the desk helping her husband who was out, looked up and asked.

"Sorry, I've been discovered."

At this time, the door opened and Wei Yanwu came in from outside: "It's normal. After all, he is a god. It might be strange that he was not discovered."

"came back."

"Well, I went to Penguin Logistics and talked to the Emperor and Lao Lin about some things that needed to be arranged later. I also took a look at it."

For Wen Yue, there are few things that can arouse her curiosity, but this is obviously not one of them: "What did you find?"

Wei Yanwu put down his coat, and after a moment of silence, he slowly said, "Nothing."

"what?"

"Literally, nothing." Wei Yanwu sat on the sofa, and Wen Yue also sat over.

As one of the top warriors in Yan Country, Wei Yanwu's perception ability may not be comprehensive, but there are basically few things that can escape his perception.

However, he ran into a wall at Penguin Logistics this morning. He could sense Texas and Angel, but he couldn't sense Xiyue standing beside them and chatting with them.

In Wei Yanwu's perception, there was nothing there, but his eyes clearly saw the person standing there. The emptiness in his perception and the fact that there was this person in his eyes conflicted with each other.

"For gods, this kind of situation is something they have never seen before." It's not like Wei Yanwu hasn't seen giant beasts before, but they all have auras that are either strong or weak. He has never seen a situation like this where there is nothing there.

"So what did you guys talk about?"

Wei Yanwu took out his pipe from the table and said, "I found a suitable place for the subsequent medical activities, gave Lao Lin a shot of prevention, and made some casual arrangements for her to meet with Xiao Chen."

"Arranged? So quickly, how did you do it? I haven't asked anyone to tell Xiao Chen about Xin Yi."

"Nothing. I just asked Lao Lin's people to pretend to be the client and let them deliver a courier. Then I called Xiao Chen to report that someone was smuggling dangerous goods. Given her personality, she will definitely lead the team herself."

Wen Yue nodded: "So, what did you ask them to transport? It can't really be dangerous goods."

Wei Yanwu tapped his unlit pipe and said, "Nothing, just a box of candy."

————Guards Bureau————

"I say, do you have to be so skillful to enter the cell? It seems that the guy didn't even lock the door." Xiyue looked at the two people who had entered skillfully, while the guy from the Guard Bureau simply opened the door and left.

"Anyway, someone will fish us out soon, so it doesn't matter. Compared to this."

The Archangel sat down cross-legged skillfully and took out a box of playing cards from somewhere. I don't know if it was hidden in the cell or he carried it with him?

"To kill some time?"

Xiyue looked at the Angel skillfully shuffling the playing cards in silence. Texas, who was standing nearby, had long been accustomed to walking over and sitting cross-legged.

"Hey, Xiyue, don't be nervous. As a member of Penguin Logistics, it would be incomplete if you haven't experienced jail time."

"I really hope you can realize how strange your current situation is. Which logistics company needs to go to jail to be complete?"

"Yes, for example, we... Hey, hurry up, two people can't play Landlord."

Xiyue thought about it for a while, and it seemed that there was really nothing to do now, so she walked over and sat cross-legged: "Okay, let's kill some time."

Chapter 26: Long-term Entrustment

———Longmen Guard Bureau·Temporary Prison Area————

The three of them were just sitting there playing poker to kill time. Among them, Texas and Exiah's expressions became unusually gloomy for some reason.

"...pair of 5." Archangel slapped the cards in his hand with a heavy face.

"Yes 9."

Xiyue threw down the cards in her hand with a relaxed look on her face: "A pair of 10s."

Angel of Exorcism tightly grasped the cards in his hand and hesitated to play: "I, I pass!"

"Can't even afford a pair of tens? Nightingale." Although Texas said this, he looked down at his cards, raised his hand silently and chose to give up.

"Ah, Texas obviously said that, but isn't it the same thing?"

"You already owe me 20 Longmen coins."

Xiyue shook her head and looked at the two people in front of her. She had not planned to transfer money at first. It was only after they played two games that Angel of Death proposed it. However, it was just for fun after all, so the amount was not large.

Then, the nightmare began. No matter how they shuffled the cards or played them, they could never win. Once, when they put their cards together, the biggest card they had was just a Queen of Hearts, which was so horrible.

Of course, they definitely didn't cheat to shuffle the cards. It was just a game to kill time by betting one dollar. If they cheated to this extent, it would seem like they couldn't afford to play the game.

They were also sure that Xiyue did not cheat. After all, they were the ones who lost, so she had no chance to shuffle the cards.

There is no question of cheating if the cards are not shuffled.

"Okay, I'm here to pick you up." Croissant's voice came from outside the Heavenly Gate, "Well, are you playing cards?"

Xiyue threw the cards to the ground and turned to look at Croissant: "Yes, but why is the Croissant so slow?"

"After all, I was setting up a stall at Pacific Plaza. I came to pick you up as soon as I heard the news. I don't know how much business I missed."

Xiyue stood up and patted her clothes: "Okay, okay, thank you for your hard work."

"How perfunctory." Croissant casually complained about Xiyue's eye protection and looked at the other two people in the room.

"Okay, we should go... Exia, why do you look like you've been saved?"

Texas bit off the pocky that he had been holding in his mouth. "Maybe it's because of you that we can keep the little money that's left in Exiah."

"Oh, a terrible loss?" Croissant nodded in understanding. No wonder Archangel looked like he was saved just now.

Texas shook the bag in his hand and took out the last Pocky.

"To be more precise, we were slaughtered. For example, the biggest pairs we had in our hands just now were 9 and 7. The rest were small pairs, or even single cards. We couldn't even play a straight."

"Overwhelmed by luck?"

Texas nodded and casually opened the iron door that had never been locked.

"Maybe I've done too many good things?" Xiyue followed Texas out of the cell and turned to the Archangel who was following behind him, "Just treat me to breakfast later."

"No problem~"

———Longmen Guard Bureau·Inspection Team Office————

"Those guys left?" Chen pinched his nose and glanced at Xing Xiong who had just come in.

"Yeah, let's go. Judging from the surveillance video, they really don't know." Xingxiong put the USB flash drive with the surveillance video that Croissant had just given them on the table.

Chen picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip: "Okay, I know, leave it there."

As for the video in the USB flash drive, Chen had already watched similar videos, no less than a hundred of them. This time, Chen knew what was going on without even having to watch them.

It was nothing more than that the client prohibited them from watching the content of the delivery, and then one of them repeated that Penguin Logistics would not bear any responsibility if viewing was not allowed.

To be honest, Chen always wanted to put these four guys in jail and lock them up for a month or two to contribute to Longmen's public security.

But the other party was just taking over the business, which was a normal business behavior and naturally did not violate Longmen Law. As for Penguin Logistics' black business? At least the other party had given Longmen Law enough face in terms of procedure.

Moreover, even if something really happened to Longmen because of the goods they delivered.

Penguin Logistics will only handle this matter faster than the Guards Bureau, unless the Guards Bureau has already handled this matter when it happened.

Of course, this is not a reason for Chen to let this matter go.

Chen put down the coffee cup in his hand and picked up the photo on the table. It was one of the photos taken by the police at the arrest scene.

"Why put a box of candy there, mocking us?"

At this time, Xingxiong's cell phone rang. Xingxiong took out his cell phone from his pocket and responded casually: "Maybe this was originally given?"

"How is that possible? It's just a box of candy. The cost of having Penguin Logistics deliver the goods is much more expensive than buying such a box of candy, not to mention the additional cost of requesting secret delivery."

Chen Jianxingxiong had no memories, so he threw the photo in his hand on the table, turned around and found Xingxiong staring at the screen of his mobile phone.

"what happened?"

Hearing this, Xingxiong turned off his phone and shook his head: "No, nothing, it's a message from an old friend of mine."

"Ah."

Outside the Guard Bureau at this time.

"By the way, Croissant, is the car back?" Texas stopped.

Croissant took the car keys out of his pocket and threw them to Texas: "Of course, otherwise you will have to take a long detour to drive the car back, and the car may not be there by then."

"I am also surprised that the car is still there after such a long time."

"With such a short time, there won't be anyone who can tamper with our Penguin Logistics vehicles, right?"

"That's true."

Xiyue looked at the conversation between the few people and shook her head.

"What a bunch of kids they are that need to be taken care of. We'll have to hold them back a little bit from now on."

———Penguin Logistics————

"Apple pie, delicious apple pie, Xiyue, would you like one?"

"Excalibur, you've been talking about it all the way."

Croissant patted Xiyue's shoulder and said, "Extreme Angel's head can no longer accommodate other hobbies except guns and apple pie. It's a pity that I only sold half of the sugar-free apple pies I bought last time."

As Croissant was speaking, Angel of Power turned around and said, "Croissant, let me say it again, sugar-free apple pie is an absolute heresy and should not have appeared in this world from the beginning."

"Dessert?"
