Chapter 017 Hospital Shock
Xu Yuanhe: "Do you suspect Rong Le might be the recipient of the legendary mission?"
Lin Qing said: "No one has ever accepted a legendary mission, and this live broadcast room is also the first time it has appeared."
So this speculation is very likely.
Xu Yuanhe sat in the chair in silence for a while, then sighed: "Ah, what kind of thing is this?"
Lin Qing said softly, "I believe you can do it."
As the person in charge of the entire special response department, Lin Qing has an extremely high emotional intelligence. Even though Xu Yuanhe knows that this is all a routine, he still can't get angry.
Who made him destined to be a worker?
Xu Yuanhe stood up: "I understand. I will get closer to Rong Le and collect more information. The rest is up to you."
Lin Qing nodded and said to him, "Safety is the most important thing."
**
The next morning, Rong Le found the pub as if she was familiar with it and pushed the door open.
He followed his memory and walked straight to the bar, where a strange bartender was standing, slowly wiping the wine glass with a white cloth.
The bartender said, "Sir, what would you like to order?"
Rong Le: "I don't drink, I'm looking for the boss."
"The boss is resting at this time. If it's not something important..."
"It's very important." Rong Le said with a smile, "I have completed the task that the boss gave me yesterday. I am here to hand it over today."
The bartender paused for two seconds, put down his glass and said politely, "Please wait a moment."
The bartender went upstairs. After a while, there was a footstep on the stairs and the boss came down lazily with messy hair.
He must have just gotten out of bed, and his whole body was filled with low pressure. Wherever he passed, the waiters quickly made way for him, as if they were avoiding some kind of monster.
Rong Le's eyes were focused on the top of his head, and her fingers were ready to move.
He has always had a hobby of petting furry animals, and the stubborn alopecia on his boss's head perfectly suits his aesthetic taste. Rong Le's ability to complete the commission so efficiently may not be without this motivation.
Of course he knew this was an unrealistic fantasy.
Perhaps it was because Rong Le's unconcealed gaze was too intense that the boss easily noticed his gaze falling on his head.
He sneered, "Detective, what are you thinking about?"
Rong Le leaned against the counter: "I was thinking about what the boss was thinking just now."
The boss found a seat and sat down, saying casually, "Okay, you pulled me out of bed in broad daylight, you better give me a satisfactory answer."
He had just met Rong Le last night and was deeply impressed by this child, so he was willing to come down and see what tricks he had. If he could satisfy him, he would forget about being forced to get up. If not...
He didn't bother to look at him again.
Rong Le: "I have completed Kurosawa's mission."
The boss looked at him and asked, "Are you done?"
Rong Le: "It's done."
Boss: "If I haven't lost my memory, I placed the order last night. You took care of Kurosawa in one night?"
Rong Le sighed, narrowed her eyes slightly, and curled her long eyelashes slightly. She said gently: "After all, the boss's task must be taken seriously. In order to complete the task, I offended Kurosawa and was busy until midnight before returning to the hotel. I barely got out of bed today."
The boss ignored his plea for praise and asked, "What have you done?"
Rong Le: "I snatched Hei Ze's new toy away."
The boss raised his eyebrows and looked up at him, obviously interested.
Rong Le looked calm, as if what she was doing was perfectly reasonable. "Normal lobbying won't work, so this is the only last resort. After all, the new toy I loved is gone, so naturally I can only go back to pampering the old one. Right, boss?"
The boss chuckled softly, "...I thought you would try to charm him."
He had long been annoyed by Kurosawa's dead face.
He is clearly a maggot struggling to survive in the mud, but he insists on putting on an air of nobility. It would be fine for others, but why does Kurosawa do that? Is it because of his cowardly and incompetent life?
That was what he thought at the time, and this was one of the reasons why he entrusted Rong Le.
He had been looking forward to the funny scene of Kurosawa being obsessed with love, but when he thought about Kurosawa losing his new toy and suffering a heavy defeat at the hands of the detective, which was almost a quick defeat, it seemed like it was about the same.
Rong Le said dissatisfiedly: "Using other people's feelings to achieve your goals, you are completely a scumbag, right?"
What he said was powerful and very upright, as if he was not the scumbag he said he was.
Boss: "...Okay, I misunderstood. It's a pleasure working with you, Mr. Detective."
As he spoke, he yawned, walked into the bar, took a pen and paper, wrote a few words, folded it in half, and handed it to Rong Le: "This is your reward."
"Also, don't worry that Kurosawa will cause you trouble. He'll know that this was my order."
When the boss handed the note to Rong Le, the system prompt sounded automatically.
[Role Mission: 3. Complete the boss's mission and convince Kurosawa to give up the idea of terminating the deal. Completed.]
Rong Le suddenly said, "There's one more thing."
The boss glanced at him lazily: "What's the matter?"
Rong Le: "Is your deal with Kurosawa related to what he is doing?"
Rong Le said seriously: "This is the bottom line, boss. If it is true, I will reconsider my cooperation with you. I believe you will not lie to me, right, boss?"
The boss was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice, "No. Quite the contrary. My deal with him conflicts with what he's doing, and I didn't want him to go down that path."
What he said was very obscure, but Rong Le understood.
There is another secret behind Kurosawa, which may be the support of a certain force, or it may be the brewing of a conspiracy.
The boss may seem to be just an underground businessman in Portland, but his influence may radiate to a wider area, which is a game that he cannot currently access.
The boss's words had revealed a lot of information to Rong Le. He was showing goodwill to him.
Rong Le stood up: "I understand, see you next time, boss."
The boss waved and went upstairs without looking back.
Rong Le left the tavern and found a secluded corner to open the note. The message on it made him raise his eyebrows in surprise.
"This is really... totally unexpected."
…
Rong Le had not taken a few steps when she met Baiyue and Thor coming towards her.
Thor was wearing a loose shirt and rolled-up trousers, but because of his thin figure, he looked empty even in this outfit.
Due to the long-term lack of sunlight and exercise, and the malnutrition, his developing body could not keep up with the growth rate. His physique was actually very weak and could not withstand any serious injury.
Fortunately, Thor's physical condition is not bad, and there is still room for recovery.
With careful nutrition and moderate exercise, you can return to a healthy level and become as active and lively as any teenager your age.
Although he looked a little funny, and even wearing the simplest clothes he looked like a child who had stolen adult clothes, Thor didn't care much about the glances of passers-by.
He bathed in the sunshine, like an ordinary and normal boy, and gave Rong Le a genuine smile.
...Compared to when Rong Le first saw him, he had a completely different mental outlook from the inside out.
"Why are you here?"
After learning that they were going to eat, Rong Le suggested, "Let's go to the tavern. The food there should be pretty good."
It didn't matter where they ate, as long as it was edible, so they returned to the tavern.
The waiter saw Rong Le coming back and said in embarrassment: "Mr. Detective, the boss went to sleep again..."
They can't bear the boss's anger if they are pulled out of bed again and again.
Rong Le: "We are here to eat, do you cook here?"
The waiter breathed a sigh of relief, "Done."
The three of them sat down and ordered their meals.
Bai Yue wiped his chopsticks slowly. As soon as he sat down, the originally ordinary-decorated pub began to look expensive. His aura made the waiters treat him with even more respect.
The more he acted like this, the more Rong Le wanted to provoke him.
Bai Yue glanced at him calmly and said, "Stop making trouble. You can't even have a meal in peace."
Rong Le was shocked.
He grabbed Baiyue's sleeve with great anguish, completely unaware that to outsiders he looked like a cat trying hard to attract its owner's attention. "If the fish soup you made last night wasn't delicious, I wouldn't have paid any attention to you!"
Baiyue sneered: "So my value is just to cook for you?"
The black-haired, cat-eyed young man tilted his head, his hair curling slightly beside his ears. His expression was so well-behaved that he looked particularly harmless. "I want a male mother."
"...Say it again?" Baiyue raised his eyebrows and said in a dangerous tone.
"Ten thousand times I'm still a male mother."
"—I will kill you today!"
Chaos quickly broke out in one corner of the tavern.
The waiter heard the noise and ran over, looking at the smart and calm detective and his companion who dared to trade with the boss with a confused look on his face, pulling his hair in a very disorganized manner.
Thor was so embarrassed that he tapped his feet and suddenly felt that it was a mistake to come out.
The two of them fought for a while, and it ended with Bai Yue, a messy mess, kicking Rong Le. Rong Le whimpered hypocritically and came to Thor crying, "Look, look, Bai Yue is very violent."
Baiyue sneered: "You deserve it."
Rong Le yelled, "Why would I become friends with someone like this? It's unbelievable. I get woken up by this fact every night."
Baiyue did not answer, perhaps because he had already picked up his chopsticks to eat, or perhaps because he didn't want to pay attention to him. After a while, he answered him:
"Maybe this is fate."
