In Terra, she is a hunter and a bad woman.

"What's wrong? Senior Texas? Are you hurt?"

"Injuried?"

When Exiah heard Kong's question, he also turned around.

But when she saw Texas's appearance, she instantly understood everything.

Sure enough...it's because of that strange woman I met during the day, right?

"It's okay, it's okay. What could happen in Texas?"

Exiah smiled and began to cover for his companions.

But Kong obviously wouldn't be at ease.

Her keen intuition made her realize that these two people seemed to be hiding something from her, and she immediately turned her head to look at Texas.

Want to get the answer from the other person.

"It's okay... I'm just a little carsick."

"Carsickness or something..."

Upon hearing Dexas's answer, Sora became visibly more worried.

In the team, Archangel is responsible for fire suppression, Croissant is responsible for defense and attack, and Texas is responsible for driving and some close combat.

And such a Texas actually said that he was carsick?

It's like a bird saying it's afraid of heights.

There is always an indescribable weirdness.

Texas quickly realized that he had spoken out of turn, and his expression became subtle.

On the other hand, the emperor opened a bottle of red wine nonchalantly and threw it out casually.

"Okay, don't dwell on it too much. This is a party, girls, a party! What do we need? Live music, delicious food, good wine, and smiles! We can all face any problems together later, but right now, we need to be happy."

This penguin named Emperor opened his beak and comforted his employees generously.

Texas also took a step forward, casually holding the red-faced Kong behind him, took the flying bottle of wine, and nodded silently.

Indeed, my own affairs are not suitable to be discussed in such a setting. Today is a banquet and what we need is happiness.

It’s better not to think too much about it.

Thinking about this, Texas sat quietly aside.

As time passed, some other members of Penguin Logistics gradually arrived.

The cheerful and dynamic music overwhelmed everything around, and the cheerful crowd began to boil.

Angelic Angel skillfully opened a bottle of beer and smiled as he gave it to the late croissant from the Fengti tribe.

Although Texas would not join in the fun of her colleagues until today, she couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth when she saw her companions so happy.

A sense of peace of mind...

The long-lost sense of security came to her again...

She lowered her head, holding her own glass, looking at the amber whiskey inside, her eyes gradually softening.

At this time, the penguin with a cigar in his mouth and a big gold chain on his neck let out a sigh, jumped to the other person's sofa, and shook his wine glass.

"So, what did you see?"

"Great Emperor..."

"Hey, girl, I'm your boss. Although I think you should handle this kind of thing yourselves, but... after all, you're working under me now. If I don't help you when you're being bullied, I'll lose face!"

The cool penguin drank wine carefreely and enlightened Texas.

"Those fellows from Syracuse?"

"Not really."

Texas shook his head, watching Kong trying hard to stop the two crazy drunks from showing off their blindfolded apple shooting skills, and turned to look at the Emperor.

"Is it... an old friend?"

"Old friend? Oh, you mean the white-haired girl?"

After thinking for a while, the emperor nodded.

As for Lapland, he also knew about the debt of love that Texas left in Syracuse.

If she was the one who came here to cause trouble, then Texas would understandably be reluctant to speak up.

"You know?"

Texas was a little surprised.

She had never imagined that in this day and age, someone still knew of Maria's existence... As for the other party calling her, "girl..."

Well, never mind. Considering the emperor's age, maybe it's not so disrespectful to call a girl by that name.

"Hey, don't underestimate me. Who do you think I am? I know this stuff, not everything."

The emperor took a deep drag on his cigar, then drank the wine in his glass and exhaled thick smoke.

"So, what did she want from you? Don't tell me you were planning on going back with her. That's not a funny joke."

"Not really."

Texas shook his head, his tone firm.

"I don't have any reason to go back..."

"Really?" The Emperor seemed indifferent. "Even if you want to go back, it doesn't really matter. After all, I won't go out of my way to let you go. What matters most is how you feel about it... Did she tell you anything?"

"……No."

Texas shook his head.

If Maria had really said something to her, then maybe she would have relaxed a little.

But the problem was that Maria didn't tell her anything.

It was as if they didn't even recognize me and ignored me.

This made her feel very uneasy.

Did I disappoint her?

Or does she never care about herself?

No matter which of the two answers, it made her breathing difficult.

After the emperor took a look at the girl, he stretched out his winged hands and scratched his belly.

"So I really don't understand how young people think... So what do you think of her?"

For a penguin who has implemented hedonism throughout his life, he is indeed not very good at psychological counseling.

"How do I look at her?" Texas was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head and began to think.

Obviously, she had never thought about this question.

After a long period of thinking, she slowly...

"Friend, sister, master, rival... even lover, mother. I don't know how to describe her. I can only feel that she occupies an inseparable place in my past... gentle, quiet, and extremely powerful."

Texas even had a smile on his face while saying this.

"Gah..."

The emperor opened his beak blankly, looking at Texas in front of him like an idiot.

You Syracuse people...are your relationships so complicated?

I have heard that you call people close to you family members.

But... mother? Lover?

Can these two descriptions appear in the same person?!

And gentleness and tranquility...Does this have anything to do with Lappland?

That crazy laughing girl doesn't look like a quiet woman at all, does she?

Anyway, he couldn't imagine Lappland quietly drinking afternoon tea in a long dress.

Are we really talking about the same person?

Hesitantly, the emperor wanted to pat the other person's shoulder and say something, but after hesitating for a while, he just laughed.

"I can't say anything about this kind of thing, but... this is Penguin Logistics, my territory. No one can force my people to do anything they don't want to do on my territory. If there's anything you want to do, just go ahead and do it."

"As long as you're happy enough, I'll definitely stand up for you!"

As he said this, he also stood up.

Texas, on the other hand, sat in his original position, thinking quietly.

It must be said that although the Emperor penguin has a strange personality, it is true that he protects his own people.

If he is willing to help me, then maybe I can talk to Maria.

but……

What should I say to her after meeting her?

Texas was distressed.

At this moment, the door of the bar... was quietly pushed open.

Chapter 28: The Lament of Texas

"Penguin Logistics?"

"Yes, Penguin Logistics."

While drinking beer, Xingxiong was communicating with the dangerous woman in front of him.

After making it clear that the other party needed money, she fell into distress for a while, but soon a name came to her mind.

Penguin Logistics!

"This is a relatively legitimate errand company... Although it does give me a headache sometimes, there's no doubt that their work is legitimate... At most, it involves some shady business, which is still within the acceptable range."

"Plus, their salaries are very high, and they even take a commission on weekdays. If you're diligent, you can probably earn enough in about one to two months... But it's a little dangerous."

"But I think... with your ability, it should be no problem."

……

The cold woman walked into the bar without saying a word.

Although she had restrained herself, that elite aura was still difficult to hide.

The Penguin Logistics employees around were staring at each other blankly with strange expressions.

"Who is this person? A new employee?"

"Really? I heard you haven't been hiring recently?"

"Wrong way?"

"I don't think so. It feels like they are here to cause trouble?"

"That's the enemy? Damn! Enemy! Damn! Beat them!"

The drunk crowd was talking nonsense, but the woman didn't care too much and just asked coldly.

"Who's the leader on your side?"

Maria had no idea about job hunting. In her opinion, if she wanted to find a job, she just had to find the leader of the organization and then demonstrate her abilities.

As for whether the other party will accept it or not...that's their business.

After these words were spoken, everyone became even more nervous.

"This woman seems to be really here to cause trouble... Do we have any enemies recently?"

"Isn't Penguin Logistics full of enemies?"
