The proprietress seemed to be oblivious to the noise in the shop. She still sat steadily behind the counter, holding her mobile phone. She was probably watching Tik Tok or a short drama, watching it with great relish.
In full view of everyone, Louis sat back in his original seat.
The surrounding noise continued.
"By the way, did you notice the group chat last night?"
"You mean the announcement?"
"right."
"What happened to the announcement?"
"It mentioned forming a team."
As they were talking, everyone seemed to notice that, among the people dining in the bun shop at this moment, only a few had not formed groups yet, and the rest were gathered in groups of three or five, talking in low voices.
At this moment, the girl with short black hair suddenly stood up and walked straight to Louis' table. She glanced at Louis, Xia Qianqing and Miyamoto Keiji and asked straight to the point, "Are you still short of people?"
"How about adding me?"
Xia Qianqing and Louis looked at each other and saw surprise in each other's eyes.
Before they took the initiative to recruit, someone came to them. But this was a good thing, so they naturally had no reason to refuse.
"Of course," Louis said without hesitation.
"But can you please tell me why you want to team up with us?" Louis asked.
Facing Louis' question, the girl with short black hair blinked and blurted out: "Because you are good-looking."
Louis: ???
Xia Qianqing:!!!
Keiji Miyamoto: Nani!
......
Let me summarize first.
Unexpectedly, recruiting the girl with short black hair was surprisingly easy.
During the communication, I learned that her name was Yin Yun, which is a quite rare surname.
Yin Yun is a person who prefers all beautiful things, especially handsome men and beautiful women.
The looks of Louis and the other two really stand out in this bun shop.
It just so happened that Yin Yun was thinking about forming a team recently, so it was natural for her to approach them.
In addition, she heard about Louis killing the "Fox God" and thought they were quite powerful, which was one of the reasons why she decided to join.
Now, the original team of three has become a team of four.
"So what should we do now?" Yin Yun asked.
At this time, four people were standing on the street in front of the bun shop.
These four people are all outstanding in appearance and temperament. Standing together, they instantly become a beautiful scenery on the street. Passers-by couldn't help but stop and watch.
"Beep beep beep--" a taxi stopped in front of them.
Xia Qianqing waved her hand and said, "Get on the bus, next stop is the park."
.......
"Dad, where's Mom?"
"Dad, didn't you say you would bring mom back?"
"Dad, are you lying to me...Is mom gone?"
"Dad, don't send me anywhere else, I'm scared, Dad..."
"Dad, I hate you."
Linjiang, a night stealth base.
Du Xing suddenly sat up on a resting bed, with beads of sweat oozing from his forehead.
He raised his fingers and gently pressed his temples, his voice a little hoarse: "Aaron, what time is it now?"
Tang Long, who was stretching lazily at the side, yawned and answered casually, "Captain Du, it's nine o'clock. How about you sleep a little longer? You checked the surveillance all night last night. It was very tiring."
Du Xing shook his head and smiled helplessly: "I slept for just a short while and had a nightmare. Now I am not sleepy at all."
"Captain Du, you also have nightmares? I thought you didn't care about anything." Tang Long said half-jokingly.
"Go away, people are all made of flesh and blood. I'm not a heartless person." Du Xing replied unhappily.
As he spoke, Du Xing picked up his phone and slowly unlocked it. On the screen was a warm family photo. His eyes fell on the photo, and a trace of loneliness flashed across his eyes, but he quickly pretended to be calm, pulled a smile at the corner of his mouth, and said softly: "My daughter will be back soon."
"Your daughter? Captain Du, I rarely hear you mention her. What kind of person is your daughter?" Tang Long asked curiously.
Du Xing's eyes flashed with reminiscence, and the smile on his lips deepened. "She... has the same temper as her mother, very stubborn, and has a clear distinction between love and hate. Once she makes up her mind about something, there is really no way to change her mind."
"Captain Du, why don't you take a rest? I'll take over Leng Tian." Tang Long looked at Du Xing's tired appearance and said with concern.
Du Xing waved his hand, "No need, you were very tired yesterday, I'll go. You go back to sleep and get enough rest."
Du Xing ignored Tang Long's obstruction, pushed him down on the bed, patted his shoulder, and then walked towards the door.
Opening the door of the lounge, Du Xing looked at Leng Tian and Ye Bingtang who were staring at the screen intently and asked, "How is it?"
"Captain Du, it's confirmed that they are from the Court of All Living Things. However, after entering Linjiang, they hovered over the Court of All Living Things base for a while and then left." Leng Tian said.
He quickly called up the relevant footage.
I saw a helicopter flying over the All Living Beings Garden base somewhere on the outskirts of Linjiang, hovering for a while, then turning around and leaving.
Through the helicopter's glass, a man wearing a horse mask can be seen operating the helicopter.
"Do you have any information about the other party?" Du Xing asked.
Leng Tian nodded and said, "Yes, according to the news from the Magic City, the other party is the captain of the Court of All Living Things, codenamed Horse Face. It is said that he has the ability of speed, is extremely fast, moves without a trace, is ruthless and cruel, and is a ruthless character."
"Why would Horse-Faced Guard come to Linjiang? Is he planning to make a comeback in Linjiang? But he shouldn't be so easy to alert the enemy and go to the discovered site of the Court of All Living Things."
Du Xing murmured.
"Maybe he doesn't know that the Court of All Living Beings near the river has been wiped out." Ye Bingtang asked.
Du Xing nodded: "That's possible, but if he didn't know that the Court of All Living Beings was wiped out, then it makes sense that he left after coming here."
"However, since the other party is at the level of a captain, this matter must be reported immediately. Lengtian, you continue to investigate the subsequent movements of the horse-faced man. I will go and report first."
"Yes, Captain Du."
......
At this moment, the time has come to ten o'clock.
Inside the park.
Under a big green tree, there are two long rows of wooden benches.
Sitting alone in a row was Keiji Miyamoto.
Sitting in a row were Xia Qianqing, Louis, and Yin Yun.
Miyamoto Keiji looked at Louis with dry eyes, "Louis-kun, why don't you come sit next to me."
Louis, who was squeezed between two women at the moment, was a little restless.
Louis agreed without thinking too much.
"Can."
Louis was about to stand up, but the two women grabbed his wrists at the same time and pulled him down, forcing him to squat on a chair.
Louis: ???
"What do you mean?" Xia Qianqing looked at Yin Yun with a slightly unfriendly look.
Yin Yun tilted her face and revealed a fatal and beautiful smile: "Why? Have you never had a man robbed?"
"I think he's handsome and I like him, is that wrong?"
