About the time I was picked up and adopted by Tallulah

“…Is my teaching method really that horrible?”

Jingzhe rubbed his long hair awkwardly and said in a low voice.

"Anyway, what do you think, Orson? Let me be clear, I definitely don't agree with this outrageous plan of you two living together!"

After everyone had discussed it, no one could come up with a better solution, so Chen once again asked Orson for his opinion.

"Hmm... Let Lappland stay at Penguin Logistics for the time being, and I'll find a new place to rent."

"Great!" "No!" "I don't agree" "Tsk..."

After Orson expressed his opinion, Chen immediately raised his hand to agree, but the two people from Penguin Logistics, including Lapland, immediately expressed their opposition.

Chen had long been annoyed by Orson's constant presence at Penguin Logistics, allowing them to take advantage of the situation. Texas and Angelica were the complete opposite; neither wanted Orson to leave. After all, as vested interests, Texas and even idiots like Angelica knew that if Orson left Penguin Logistics, his terrifying socialite passive skill would likely cause a surge of enemies.

Of course, the two of them didn't know that the two Xuanming Elders would soon come from Longmen and be able to nip all the spring bamboo shoots that wanted to sprout in the bud.

"Orson, you should have found a place to live a long time ago! Take a look at this apartment. There are spare rooms inside, and the commuting area is convenient. I go out from here when I go to work... uh..."

When Chen Huijie heard that Orsen wanted to move out of Penguin Logistics, she immediately perked up. She took out her mobile phone and showed Orsen a residential community. However, she suddenly let slip halfway through her words and revealed the fact that her home was also in this community.

The glaring sight from Penguin Logistics instantly made the capable detective look away guiltily.

"Why don't you just stay at my house, Orson?"

"No!" "No!" "Absolutely not!" "Then I'll go too!"

Jingzhe said it casually, but was quickly opposed by Chen Deneng and the other two. However, when Lapland heard it, his waist and legs didn't hurt anymore, and he insisted on moving into Sister Lei Zi's house with Orson.

"Well, in that case, there are vacancies near my apartment! And the delivery speed of takeout in the area is very fast. Orson, you should consider it!"

"There might be some empty houses near the neighborhood where I live. Consider it, Orson."

Seeing this, Exia and Texas followed closely behind without showing any weakness.

"Why does it feel like the topic has suddenly become a little strange..."

Orson rubbed his hair. They should have been discussing Lappland's hiding place, but for some reason, the conversation turned to who his new residence would be next to.

Of course, the reason why everyone is so openly fighting for Orson is very simple. Even if we put aside everyone's favorability towards Orson, the other party's multifunctional portability alone is enough to make everyone fight for it without reservation.

He can even ask you if you want to add sugar to the soy milk when making breakfast, or tell you not to be afraid when you encounter a robbery or natural disaster. He can even tell some crosstalk for fun occasionally. This kind of chimera, who is only a pocket away from Doraemon, is hard to find in the entire Terra world nowadays!

But Chimera himself hadn't considered all of this. He only hoped to find a quiet enough place to first settle down the Snow Rabbit and Fire Dragon that came to demand his life (?), and then think about how to introduce the "connections" he had developed in Longmen to the two of them in a way that would not make them angry.

"Well...actually, I've considered a few places to live before, but I haven't had much time to look at them myself. Could Officer Chen help me with some advice?"

"Hmm? Uh... sure."

Orson suddenly came to Chen Huijie and asked for Chen's help point by point. This behavior made Chen Huijie stunned for a moment.

"Thank you for your help, Officer Chen. Let's go to the other room first."

"Eh?"

After Chen agreed, Orson immediately took Chen to another room in the Penguin Logistics office in front of everyone.

"..." "..." "..."

Exia, Texas, and Lappland stared at Chen Huijie in surprise, but followed Orson into another room with some embarrassment. These three people with completely different positions, identities, and personalities all thought of the same Yan Country proverb at the same time.

Two wolves are catching a dwarf, with a dragon policeman following behind.

At the same time, Chen Huijie, who entered the room with Orson:

"Has Tallulah arrived at Longmen?"

"Yes, so I definitely can't continue living in Penguin Logistics now. I have to find a new place to live. This place is indeed very suitable as a temporary hiding place for Lappland."

Although Chen did not expect that something "special" would happen when Orson looked for her alone, she still felt a little uneasy when she learned that Orson deliberately looked for her just to tell her that Tallulah had arrived at Longmen.

Although she was excited about meeting her long-lost sister, she felt a sense of loss deep down in her heart.

Chen knew very well that he was the reason why Orson arrived at Longmen, and the origin of this reason was even just a farce produced by a third-rate newspaper.

She might never be able to walk on the same stage with this boy. Her future belongs to the city of Longmen, while this boy... his future belongs to his sister and the "Integration Movement" he and Tallulah created together.

"That's... great! I'm able to meet Tallulah again, all thanks to you, Orson. So let me help you see which residence best suits your needs—"

Chen said this with some disappointment and resignation, but when she took over the alternative residence, she suddenly realized something.

"Wait... Orson, you're not saying you're planning on living with Tallulah from now on, are you?"

"Well, there's nothing we can do about it. After all, Talulah and Froststar probably won't be able to find legal accommodation anytime soon. Dragon Gate is sealed off now, isn't it?"

"Who is Frost Star?! Wait, wait a minute... Could it be that you, Orsen, often slept with others before?"

Chen looked at Orson solemnly and asked in a low voice.

"Well, it's actually not that bad... I didn't have this habit before, but then I started to notice that people would always sneak into my room. When I was in Rhodes Island, Frost Star often... Uh, I, I better not talk about this, right?"

Orson was halfway through his speech when he suddenly felt that he shouldn't tell Chen about these things. However, Chen had already caught a glimpse of a corner of Orson's life during the Reunion from his previous words.

"Orson—"

Chen suddenly put a serious hand on Orson's shoulder.

"[Evil will never be tolerated], this is the oath I swore when I joined the Longmen Guard Bureau, and it applies to any form of crime."

"Uh...Officer Chen?"

Orson rubbed his hair, not sure why Chen suddenly became so serious.

"Let's choose this apartment. It's quite quiet around here."

"Okay, then, Officer Chen?"

After Chen helped Orson choose a new address, he pushed the door open and left the room with a bright look in his eyes.

——Those criminals who violated Orson’s privacy without authorization and forced him to do those...those indecent behaviors, even my sister and her friends will never tolerate them!

Chen thought so.

--------

Today, Lapland is temporarily living in Penguin Logistics to avoid possible subsequent pursuit by the Sicilian Gang.

Orson found a new home in a slightly secluded corner of Longmen District 15 (although he only discovered a familiar 'neighbor' after moving in).

Chen Huijie decided to personally arrest her sister and her accomplices who were suspected of trespassing/molesting minors (?).

It was another quiet day in Longmen.

72. Sister Gui drinks wine and discusses heroes, Sister Tazi plays with Silly on the bed

In the Penguin Logistics office, at the door of the lounge which was temporarily converted into Orson's bedroom, Texas and Exia were staring at Orson's bedroom in deep thought, while Lappland on the side was fiddling with Exia's light bulb and pulling Texas' tail with her usual wicked smile.

"There's so little stuff...can't we move it all in no time?"

Exiah looked at the small amount of luggage in the room and complained quietly.

"Basically, they were just a change of clothes, and some cleaning tools of unknown origin."

Texas said as he helped to pack.

Jingzhe and Chen had already left. After all, unlike Penguin Logistics, these two were real civil servants. They did not have much free time at their disposal, and it also depended on whether their boss would suddenly ask them to work overtime like a retard.

Although the group was surprised at Orson's speed and efficiency in finding a new room, judging from his reaction, he was serious about it, so the Penguin Logistics staff could only help pack their luggage and move reluctantly.

"It's all your fault... Otherwise, Orson wouldn't have moved away...!"

Not knowing the truth of the matter, Exia complained somewhat unhappily to Lappland who was rubbing his light bulb behind him, and Texas beside him nodded slightly in agreement.

"Hahaha, I'm obviously a victim too, right? And you can think on the bright side. After Puppy moves out, can't you take advantage of this time to go to his house and have sex without restraint? You don't have to worry about being interrupted by someone who suddenly breaks in in the middle of sex anymore, okay?"

Lappland smiled wickedly and whispered in their ears.

"...I'm different from you. Don't make such silly jokes, Lappland."

Texas was stunned for a moment, but quickly shook off Lappland, but there was still some heat on his face.

"Stealing, stealing the house or something...don't talk nonsense!"

Exia's reaction was more dramatic. She first pushed Lappland away, but then began to seriously think about the possibility and success rate of stealing the house.

"Haha, your good friend seems to be in high spirits. If you keep going like this, you'll miss your chance, Texas~~ Although I don't think her appearance has anything to do with stealing..."

After Lapland sowed discord, he said to Texas with a smile, and then covered his eyes with his hands to prevent the strobe light from the side, which was extremely shy because of the picture he imagined, and was blinded by the strobe light of the Angel.

"Don't discuss this kind of thing so seriously in front of the person involved. It's so embarrassing...!"

Orson, who was cleaning the room, turned around and complained, but ended up getting hit by a full white from the Angel of Death.

Because there weren't many things in Orson's bedroom, it only took them about 30 minutes to pack everything up (Orson also cleaned it up a bit), and the total amount was enough to fit in two ordinary suitcases.

"Thanks for your help, Texas, Exia. I'm sure our sudden move has caused you a lot of trouble... I'm really sorry."

Orson dragged his luggage to the door and thanked the two of them.

"It's really troublesome. From now on, I can only eat takeout for breakfast. The cleaning schedule needs to be rotated again, and there's a backlog of work... cough cough cough. Anyway, I've caused you a lot of trouble during this period. I should be the one saying thank you, Orson."

Exiah coughed twice in the middle of her words. It was true that she had asked Dora Orson to help her a lot recently. Sora and Croissant even began to wonder how long it would take for Exiah to become completely useless.

By the way, the empty guessing period is two weeks, and the croissant guessing period is 14 days.

"Let's take you to your new residence. These bags aren't too much, but they're inconvenient to carry."

Texas put the car keys on the table into his pocket, took the suitcase from Orson and walked towards the door.

"Then I will too—"

"Just stay here and figure out where you stand, Lappland."

When Lagou saw that Exia and Texas were preparing to send Orson to his new home, he wanted to join in, but before he could get close, he was held down by Texas.

"Be patient, Lappland. Your presence must not be known to the Sicilian Gang under any circumstances. But this situation won't last long, I promise you."

Orson looked at Lappland and spoke seriously to the Luper.

"And... no matter what, please don't behave like that again, Lappland. No matter what happens, don't try to handle it all on your own, okay?"

"...Ha, I'm truly defeated by you."

Faced with Orson's sincere and earnest request, Lappland put away her cynical smile. She walked up to Orson, nodded slightly to the young man, and then showed a serious and refreshing smile.

"As you command, my Lord Knight."

"Hmm... Sir Knight or something..."

Perhaps because of the contrast created by Lappland's seriousness, Orson was stunned for a moment, then shyly looked away and left the office with Texas and Exia.

"——What a cute little guy."

Watching Orson walk out of the door as a child, Lappland sighed softly.

In fact, Lappland's attitude towards Orson has always been very conflicted. On the one hand, this white wolf who has "tasted" the Chimera wants to use various means to monopolize the hero that belongs to her more than anyone else. But on the other hand, Lappland feels that a guy like her is not worthy of Orson's attention.

Two completely different thoughts swirled in her mind, and the final result was that Lappland could only use the method of instigating others to cover up her own entanglement and continue to get along with Orson like this.

"Haha, I really did look like a stupid dog."

Lappland sighed with a wry smile, rubbed her snow-white hair in the empty Penguin Logistics office, then went into the room that had been restored to its original lounge, curled up, and felt the lingering warmth and breath left by her former owner.

The sudden appearance of light and warmth in her originally dark and desperate life made Lappland feel uncomfortable. In fact, she herself was not as comfortable as she appeared as to how to get along normally with Orson.

And just as Lapland curled up in Orson's former bedroom and gradually fell into a dream -

"Is Orson here? Um... are you, um, free the day after tomorrow? I hope to invite you to my concert - all of this is to investigate who you are... Uwaaa! Croissant - there's a female pervert in Orson's bedroom!!"

"...??"

Lapland was awakened by a slightly harsh but unexpectedly pleasant girl's voice. She climbed out of the bedroom and stared at Sora-chan, who had just returned to the office, in front of the door.

----------

On the other side, not long after, Texas drove Orson and Exiah to their new residence.

"This area looks like a mid- to high-end residential area that's a bit remote."

Texas looked around as he searched for the address Orson had given him, his tone a little confused.

After all, in Texas's impression, Orson has always been a relatively simple person, and a community of this level should not be within Orson's choice range.

"Ahahaha... This is quite normal for Orson."

The Archangel on the side laughed and laughed.
