At that moment, Shi Jin understood some truths.
I completely gave up the idea of a complete cure, but my mother's life still had to be maintained.
This is Shi Jin’s final bottom line.
Because of this, she gradually had some inappropriate thoughts.
There is a casino two blocks away from Shi Jin's home.
Although there are few people walking around in Hope City at night, that is just a consequence of the energy shortage. There is actually no curfew.
The lights there often stayed on all night, accompanied by loud laughter and meaningless wailing that could be heard even across the road.
When daytime comes, the casino will become stagnant again, with people going to work or catching up on sleep...
Shi Jin had his eyes on just such a place.
After visiting the casino for a week, Shi Jin finally figured out the operating rules of the casino.
Looking at her gradually shrinking wallet, she decided to take action.
The theft went more smoothly than expected. The casino, backed by the gang, seemed to think that no one could shake their position and their security was truly weak inside.
Shi Jin took his lock-picking set and a small hammer and rushed in in the morning when everyone was sleeping soundly.
The results were beyond expectations.
Just this success allowed Shi Jin to take away 200,000 information coins.
This is the casino's cash flow over the past period of time, which has not yet been settled and paid.
Things developed just as Shi Jin had expected. The place that shouldn't have existed was certainly not reported to the security team after the theft. However, security at the casino became increasingly strict over the following period of time.
Although many of the ferocious-looking security guards had wounds on their faces.
However, even though the money was enough, Shi Jin's mother did not insist any longer.
After calmly handling his mother's funeral, Shi Jin neatly stacked the remaining stolen money under his bed.
She sat there all night long, looking at the stacks of banknotes and the lock-picking tools in her hands.
Then, a masterstroke appeared.
Shi Jin became a thief not so much for money as to cause trouble to others.
When she feels that a person's butt is not clean, she will start planning an action.
After each success, she leaves a hand-painted pattern on the wall.
The brush used was obtained by rolling up and burning the information coins obtained in each theft.
Shi Jin also has an almost pathological pursuit for information coins.
Although she never spent the stolen money, she always kept the information coins neatly stacked under her bed.
As for those properties that were not information coins, they were thrown aside in scattered pieces.
The reason why she was caught this time was, on the one hand, because she extended her reach into the inner city, and on the other hand, she planned to exchange all her gains for information coins and continue to pile them under the bed.
The fundamental reason for this decision is that there are too many "junk" in the house...
This is how Miaoshou came to be and was caught. In essence, he was just an ordinary young maintenance worker who wanted to cause trouble for some local people.
Taking advantage of Zhuang Mian's question, Shi Jin quickly went over his dream life over the past year in his mind.
"Shh~"
She suddenly laughed out loud.
"You ask a very strange question. Do you need a reason to do bad things?"
"Don't you need it?"
Zhuang Mian raised his eyebrows. Shi Jin had always been very cooperative, but now he seemed to have suddenly become rebellious.
"If I have to say it, it's just very unpleasant."
Shi Jin lowered his eyes, which seemed to contain boundless anger.
“I’m really upset with this stupid city.”
Zhuang Mian silently replied "Me too" in his heart, but his expression remained calm.
"That's all I have to say. As for the 'believer', I really don't know anything about it. Please give me a quick answer."
Zhuang Mian closed the document in his hand and did not respond to Shi Jin's request.
She waved her hand to signal the people around her to send Shi Jin to the single room, and then she walked out of the interrogation room, shaking her sore neck back and forth.
"Send this confession to Mr. Luke, and tell him that it's getting late, so we can talk tomorrow if there's anything else."
Zhuang Mian watched Shi Jin's figure disappear at the end of the corridor, then turned and walked towards his lounge in the Ministry of Internal Affairs.
Along the way, her mind was in a state of confusion.
In fact, her subordinates have verified Shi Jin's experiences in the past year through visits to many parties.
She wouldn't care about anything the other party said, she just asked that question because she felt it was a pity.
Zhuang Mian has been conducting an internal audit for some time.
The actions of some people even made her wonder if this human was a spy sent by the alien beast.
Some of the investigations would lead to certain interventions, which also made Zhuang Mian feel extremely disgusted.
As any organization expands, internal problems are bound to arise.
This is the case with the Ministry of the Interior, the Army, and the City of Hope.
【Believer】Will it be like this?
Zhuang Mian didn’t know.
After sorting out some work documents in the office and making sure nothing was missed, Zhuang Mian returned to his room inside the Ministry of Internal Affairs building, only to find two faint green lights in the darkness.
A kitten with mixed fur sat elegantly and upright on Zhuang Mian's desk.
She looked very sensible, and there wasn't a single claw mark or cat hair on the tidy bed.
Zhuang Mian did not feel relaxed after seeing all this.
The experience of being attacked made her cautious most of the time.
Although the gap on the window in the room, which was almost as wide as a cat's head, was silently telling how the kitten got in, she clearly remembered that she had completely sealed the room, including the window, before leaving during the day.
If it's just an accidental incident, let her go.
Zhuang Mian muttered silently in his heart.
She was very busy at work, and although she loved furry things, she really didn't have the time to get a cat.
This cat is really well behaved though.
And the next second after Zhuang Mian closed the door behind her, a strange but cute female voice came into her ears.
"Hello, Captain Zhuang Mian, or to put it another way, hello, Ms. Butterfly of the Believer."
In an instant, Zhuang Mian felt a chill running down his spine.
She slowly turned her body to the left, her right hand reaching for the holster at her waist.
"Don't be so nervous, Ms. Fran means no harm~"
Cat, the cat spoke!
Zhuang Mian was stunned. The cat in front of him seemed a little too human.
"Nice to meet you. I am Miss [Flan] from the [Believers] organization."
Well, it seems that [Believers] are indeed not what I thought.
Zhuang Mian felt his mind was somewhat numb.
A member of the cleanup team, an orphan from the lower city, an all-round researcher, a direct superpower, and... a cat.
This world is becoming more and more magical.
