"etc."

Officer Zheng stopped the man, saying, "Let's catch him once and for all when he goes to sell the goods!"

"That's true!"

Xiao Jin nodded repeatedly, then continued to peer out the window.

The man walked to the shantytown fence, pulled out a waterproof tarpaulin to cover all the filth on the tricycle, and then walked straight into the residential building.

-

"Knock knock—"

"Knock knock—"

The door was knocked on unexpectedly, and Xiao He was momentarily surprised.

This house has clearly been uninhabited for a long time, and he only arrived today. How come this strange guy suddenly appeared today?

Xiao He stood up, twisted his slightly sore neck, quickly recovered, put down the dust cover in his hand, and walked towards the door.

The door opened, and a bunny girl was standing in the doorway.

A... bunny girl?

Xiao He: ? ? ?

Xiao He was startled.

The other person's makeup was extremely heavy. On that deathly pale face, apart from the pair of large, fluttering eyelashes, Xiao He couldn't even see the other person's eyes clearly. And the other person's exaggerated black stockings paired with a tight-fitting clothes made him feel a chill.

It's just... such a tacky and unfashionable combination.

Just as Xiao He was marveling at the other person's shocking makeup and attire, the other person was also looking Xiao He up and down.

Xiao He was fully covered with a hat and mask, and when he opened the door, he only left a small gap, which covered most of his body in the room. Although a sliver of room light could be seen behind him, most of the light was firmly blocked by his body.

With the sky already darkening, Xiao He, hiding behind the door, appeared extremely eerie and terrifying.

The person who was initially aggressive swallowed back all the words of abuse they were about to utter.

"Cough cough—"

The "bunny girl" coughed lightly, then, as if to bolster her courage, shouted in a gruff voice, "Hey, newbie! Don't be making such a racket cleaning the room at this hour! There are people living next door."

Xiao He: ?

First of all, it's only a little past eight o'clock. Is it okay for him to do whatever he wants in his room?

Secondly, something about what you're saying sounds off.

Xiao He stared intently at the person in front of him.

Thanks to the confusion he had about gender when he met the influencer Guoguo at the last event, Xiao He has now learned to tell the difference between men and women by looking at their Adam's apple.

Although the other person was wearing a bell around their neck, Xiao He was certain that this guy was a man.

No, is it now the code for internet traffic that men dress up as women and women dress up as men?

Just as Xiao He's worldview was shattered and he was rebuilding it in the shadows, the person in front of him was met with Xiao He's gloomy and cold gaze.

His initial arrogance subsided considerably, and his gaze darted back and forth in the shadows in a panic, only to suddenly notice that the other person's arm seemed to be behind his back...

It didn't look like a human arm; the back of the hand and fingers were twisted inhumanly, as if some monster was reassembling its body—

"Cough, cough cough."

Bunny Girl… no, Bunny Boy cleared his throat again, this time speaking much more gently, though his voice was actually trembling slightly: “Um, I’m doing a live stream next door, bro. We’re all just trying to make a living, it’s not easy. Please cooperate, we’ll be neighbors from now on, let’s be understanding and help each other out—”

"good."

Xiao He was about to close the door when a fat man came up from downstairs. He was immediately excited to see that Xiao He's room 403 was finally occupied, but when he saw the person standing at the door, he rolled his eyes in disgust: "Dead transvestite."

"What did you say?"

Unlike his submissive attitude towards Xiao He, the bunny boy was quite assertive with this guy: "If you swear again, believe me, I'll report that thing downstairs to you?"

The fat man immediately fell silent.

Xiao He remained silent, only slightly twitching his nose as he surveyed the two people before him with a distant gaze.

—Yes, it's the scent of our kind.
