Chapter 105 Turning Back to the Hollow (1/2)



Upon hearing the sound, Fagga looked over and saw Ruby holding a pile of fragments in her hands, with a broken box that had been blown to pieces and was still vaguely recognizable as a former music box.

Looking at the dark, smudged marks around it, it was probably destroyed by a bullet.

Uh... even though you might fail the assessment, isn't your focus a little off right now?

Fagar rubbed his forehead, a bitter smile creeping onto his lips. He shook his head, then turned to look at Ellen and winked at her.

[You should comfort your best friend yourself.]

Eileen rolled her eyes, then walked over to Ruby, pulled her aside, and whispered words of comfort.

Ruby started by sobbing softly, but soon she seemed to have a change of heart. Her expression of disappointment came and went like a tornado, leaving the sky blue again.

Seeing this, Fagga stopped paying attention to Elaine and instead heard the police station reporting on the other side, so he decided to go and join in the fun.

On the other side, Zhu Yuan was listening to the data reported by Seth, while Qingyi was making notes in a spreadsheet with her eyes closed, looking completely absorbed.

But at one moment, she suddenly opened her eyes, and the data stream that had not completely disappeared remained in her eyes. Just staring at it for a second was enough to make one dizzy.

At this moment, Qingyi looked at a pillar with those eyes, her pupils, which had been filled with data flow, quietly turned back to emerald green, and vaguely revealed a hint of helplessness.

The woman in green sighed and said helplessly, "Faga, if you want to hear it, just come out openly. There's no need to hide like this."

What? Someone's eavesdropping?

Upon hearing this, Seth's hair stood on end. He quickly looked around and, after a while, remembered that the senior in blue was referring to Fagga, and only then did he lower his guard.

Seth was still shocked. Although he was a trainee sheriff, he was a top student in school, and counter-surveillance and counter-tracking were compulsory subjects.

But he didn't hear a single footstep, and he didn't even sense Fagga's presence.

That can't be right. Even if there is a difference, it shouldn't be this outrageous.

Seth was skeptical of Qingyi's words. After all, he was called "uncle," and had been eating for several years longer than Fagga.

But soon, Fagar, who came out from behind the pillar himself, dispelled Seth's doubts.

There wasn't a trace of embarrassment on his face; instead, he exuded a gentlemanly gentleness, with a hint of apology in his expression: "I'm sorry, there's a painting behind the pillar, and I was a little engrossed in looking at it just now."

"There's no need for that... Never mind, just pretend there's a painting behind the pillar."

Although there was nothing behind that pillar in Qingyi's memory bank, she didn't want to dwell on it anymore, so she said:

"Today's operation is like a major exam paper. It's top secret beforehand, but it won't be long before it's all over the newspapers in various forms. It wouldn't matter if you knew beforehand..."

"Oh, right. Seth, take a few more photos from different angles to appease the TV station; Zhu Yuan, continue to fulfill your duties as captain, I'll chat with this Fagar first."

The woman in green, who routinely overstepped her bounds, came to Faga's side, glanced at the pillar beside her, and her pupils contracted. Then, she looked at Faga with some surprise.

Is it really necessary to go to such lengths, creating a painting on the spot using ether crystals?

"Take care of your health. Don't let your weapon corrode you into a corpse. You know, the medical level in New Elidu can only save patients with milder corrosion."

After casually reminding Fagga, Qingyi got to the point: "Seth just reported that the prisoners of the Mountain Lion said that there were only two escapees from the Mountain Lion: one was Jane, who ran away beforehand, and the other was their leader."

"Thank you so much for such a perfect result. Could you please provide Victoria Housekeeping's address? The police will be coming to visit."

"With official endorsement, I wish you great success in your business in advance."

Upon hearing this, Fagga was greatly alarmed. Although his eyelids were twitching violently, he still forced a smile and waved his hand in refusal:

"No need, no need. Victoria Housekeeping is law-abiding and has a good reputation in the industry. They are also satisfied with their situation, so there's no need to take up too many social resources."

joke!

As for our main job, it's fine to do it occasionally when we're in the mood. If we're always fully booked, will Victoria Housekeeping still be profitable?

So Fagga quickly changed the subject, saying, "So what are the police department's plans for next?"

"What to do? Return in triumph! Hold a simple celebration banquet when we get back."

The woman in green tilted her head and suddenly glanced behind her. Despite her mechanical demeanor, a hint of tenderness flickered in her eyes as she looked at Zhu Yuan, Seth, and the other sheriffs.

"Hmm... I won't participate. I'll just find a charging station with a suitable voltage. As for Seth, he'll probably be heading back to work excitedly after the celebration party. Zhu Yuan... she'll probably go home and have a long phone call with her family."

"very nice..."

Suddenly, the woman in green's tone became a little melancholy, but it quickly dissipated. She then covered her neck with her hand and said as if nothing had happened:

"Sigh, talking to you is really uncomfortable, it's too high, my body is about to break down... But today is also a great victory, let's go, it's time to get ready to go out."

After saying that, Qingyi turned and left, stretched, and then tried to call Zhu Yuan.

At this moment, Fagar raised an eyebrow and suddenly asked, "So, are we not going to arrest Jane and the leader of the Mountain Lion Gang?"
