Hearing the commotion outside, the little girl curiously opened a crack in the door to peek out, only to be captured by the demons and taken hostage.
The little girl remained calm and showed no panic. On the contrary, the demon who was holding her hostage was trembling and looked very nervous.
This ghost was only at the eighth rank, and there were two ninth-rank ghost kings in the area, but they encountered the left and right guardians who were quite powerful.
The ninth team had cleared out most of the miscellaneous fish in the community, and it looked like there was only one left, but unexpectedly, the evacuation work went wrong.
No one dared to make a move, fearing that the ghosts might hurt the child in their nervousness, and it would be terrible if anything happened to the child.
Just as the Ninth Squad was struggling with this problem, a familiar voice suddenly came from behind them.
"Destroy".
Yanluo uttered a single word, and the demon clan member who was holding the little girl hostage instantly turned into ashes and scattered.
Chi Miaomiao turned around in surprise and saw the man she missed so much.
Without the slightest hesitation, Chi Miaomiao turned around and was about to run towards Yan Luo when Yan Luo appeared in front of her and hugged her.
"I'm back, Miaomiao."
Chi Miaomiao's eyes widened. She clearly had a lot to say, but in the end, only large tears remained to express her longing.
All the words I could say in the end were reduced to just one: "I miss you."
Fan Qianning and Xie Huai'an stood to the side, smiling as they watched this scene, their hearts filled with suppressed sorrow.
This happy scene should have made them happy, but Fan Qianning just couldn't feel happy at all.
Yanluo looked at the two sisters.
"Didn't you miss me, Ningning, An'an?"
Fan Qianning and Xie Huai'an exchanged a glance, and seeing each other's shock, all the pent-up emotions in their hearts were released. They threw themselves into Yan Luo's open arms.
Hugging three girls at once—that's a move that requires a lot of skill.
Zhong Jiudao and Xue Yunting, siblings, were also playing around with Yan Luo, while Tu Luoxue, who had been standing behind them, took out her phone and opened the camera.
The shutter clicked, capturing this moment of reunion. The girl's face remained unchanged with a smile. Sensing Tu Luoxue's feelings, Yan Tu obediently stood beside her, waiting quietly.
The little girl was picked up by her parents and thankfully was not injured.
Bai Lingling and Bai Miaomiao successfully dealt with the two evil spirits, restoring peace to the neighborhood and the entire city.
Yangcheng East was also cleared under the hunting of nine Zodiac Ghosts led by Yang Zhuyu, completing the cleanup of Yangcheng in just a few nights, which should have taken much longer.
The speed is undeniably fast.
After completing the handover with the ancient temple, Yanluo invited Yang Zhuyu to go home for a late-night snack. Even though An Qiuxi didn't say it, Yanluo knew that she missed Yang Zhuyu and the others.
So inviting Yang Zhuyu home together was a surprise from him, her older brother, to his younger sister.
Of the ninth squad, only Zhong Jiudao didn't go back for a late-night snack with Yan Luo and the others because Xia Qianzhen was still home alone, and he had to go back to pick her up, so he would be a little late.
Yanluo's house was even more lively than before. Yang Zhuyu joined the team making wontons. An Qiuxi was very happy to see Yang Zhuyu and was also very grateful to Yanluo. She felt that she could not hide her thoughts from Yanluo's eyes.
Yan Luo was unaware of Yan Tu's identity until Chi Miaomiao explained. He then realized that Yan Tu was an AI-powered intelligent robot nanny created by his sister and brother-in-law, and he circled around Yan Tu several times.
Yan Luo couldn't help but marvel at the power of modern technology, and Yan Tu's blue camera eyes suddenly turned into red scanning eyes.
"Identification successful. The fourth authority controller, Yan Luo, will play a video as instructed by Dr. Yan."
Yan Tu placed his right palm on top, and a projection screen slowly condensed and enlarged, with the video starting to play. The people in the family were also attracted by the commotion.
On the screen appeared a woman that Yanluo knew very well. The woman was wearing gold-rimmed glasses and a standard white coat. Just looking at the woman made Yanluo feel at ease.
"Hey, can you see? Can you hear me, Yan Tu?"
Yan Li waved her hand in front of Yan Tu, and seeing the blue camera eye react, Yan Li patted her chest in relief.
"Ah Yi, Yan Tu's recording function is working fine!" Tu Yi, who was typing on the keyboard behind Yan Li, smiled and waved to Yan Tu.
Yan Li stood with her hands behind her back, looking somewhat embarrassed and a little awkward as she rarely dealt with being photographed.
"Say something, what should I say?"
Sensing his wife's embarrassment, Tu Yi stood up from his swivel chair and hugged Yan Li from behind.
"Just say whatever you want, this is my first time recording, it's super meaningful!"
Yanli leaned against her husband's chest and smiled helplessly, "That's what I say, but it feels really awkward to actually say it."
To give his wife a heads-up, Tu Yi smiled and waved at the camera.
"Let's start with introductions. I'm Tu Yi, and this is my wife, Yan Li. We have three children..."
When the topic of children came up, Yanli was immediately inspired and whispered a few words in Tu Yi's ear.
Tu Yi's eyes widened; he thought his wife's idea was good.
The two of them stood with their backs to Yan Tu's camera for a while, then turned around and said in unison to Yan Tu's camera, "Xue'er, Keke, Yi'er, and dear Xiao Luo, we love you all!"
Yan Luo swallowed hard, then suddenly felt her hands being held. Looking around, she saw Tu Luoxue and Tu Keke.
The video was short and ended quickly, but its significance was immense.
Yanluo held Tu Luoxue and Tu Keke, who were crying incessantly in her arms, gently stroking their heads, and whispering softly in their ears.
"It's okay, I'm here."
After the two girls calmed down, Yanluo, at Su Qing's suggestion, prepared to take a bath. There was still a while before they could eat, so taking a bath to wash away their fatigue would be a good idea.
Guangzhou in March wasn't too cold, and Yanluo rarely thought of taking a bath.
Just as he took off his shirt, the unlocked bathroom door was pushed open, and the person who came in was Chi Miaomiao.
The girl quickly closed and locked the door, then wrapped her arms around Yanluo's neck with a grin.
"Let me rub your back."
Yan Luo pressed her forehead against Chi Miaomiao's and laughed, "Is it really just a simple back rub?"
Chi Miaomiao pouted and said unhappily, "You're making it sound like all I can think about is sex! I'm not going to be friends with you anymore..."
Yan Luo wrapped his arms around Chi Miaomiao's waist, lowered his head and kissed Chi Miaomiao's neck, turning the kiss into a light bite.
"Don't be angry, Miaomiao and I are the best of friends in the world!"
Chi Miaomiao hugged Yan Luo back and sighed, saying, "I'm not falling for that."
But the smile that curled at the corner of her mouth betrayed her.
The two in the bathroom did not do anything inappropriate. Chi Miaomiao did rub Yan Luo's back and massage his shoulders.
Zhong Jiudao, who was returning home, picked up Xia Qianzhen, who had been waiting for him, and together they went to Yanluo's house. They also picked up Zhang Bichen, who was still working overtime.
The arrival of the three officially signaled the start of the late-night snack.
