Chapter 90: Chapter 90: Zhu Yuan and Qingyi
"Mmm, thank you." Caeser looked at the siblings in front of her, her heart filled with gratitude. Then, as if she had thought of something, she hesitated for a moment before finally deciding to speak. "Um, I want to tell you the truth. I'm sorry for lying to you before. Actually, this manga wasn't for a friend, but for myself."
Caeser said this with some shame. She had thought she would receive strange looks from others, but Wise and Belle didn't seem to mind at all.
"That's very normal. After all, for a girl Caeser's age, there's no need to be embarrassed about liking things like shoujo manga. Doesn't my sister like to read them too?"
"Eh? I-is that so?" Caeser was slightly stunned after hearing Wise's words, and finally thought to herself, That's right. My identity in front of them is not the leader of the Sons of Calydna, but an ordinary girl from the Outer Ring.
Thinking of this, Caeser was overjoyed. In the end, she bowed excitedly to Wise again to express her thanks, and that deep, bottomless cleavage was once again displayed before his eyes.
Mmph, could it be that Caeser isn't wearing a bra?
Wise did not continue to pay attention to this matter, but instead explained to Caeser that they still had to go to the Public Security Bureau to handle some business. The latter, because she needed to go back early after purchasing her things, had to part ways at this time. And before leaving, Caeser also exchanged contact information with Wise, saying that if there was a chance in the future, she would definitely treat him well if he came to the Outer Ring to play.
"Wow, I just checked. That limited edition manga is so expensive!" Belle was also shocked as she looked at the second-hand price on her phone. And Wise, seeing her like this, just smiled and then said deliberately, "Yeah. But it's already been given away, so it's not really possible to get it back."
"Hmph, what are you saying, brother? I don't mean I want it back. It's you I'm talking about. I didn't have the heart to say it when Caeser was here just now. I was only gone for a moment, and you've already found another pretty girl. I really can't let my guard down around you, brother."
Wise was also a bit embarrassed after being told this by Belle. But he really couldn't be blamed for this. After all, meeting Caeser was a complete accident. It was as if there was a special kind of magic that attracted beautiful girls to his side. Forget it, no matter what I say, Belle definitely won't believe me. So Wise compensated Belle by eating out tonight, and what they ate was her decision. The latter was overjoyed upon hearing this.
"Yay! Let me check what's good to eat nearby." She then immediately took out her phone to search for nearby restaurants, but after opening it, it just kept loading.
"Hm? Is it because the signal in the alley is bad?" As she spoke, Belle also held her phone high with both hands and at the same time walked towards the sidewalk outside. And just at this moment, Wise frowned slightly. He heard something approaching quickly, the violent sound of an engine, and the sound of car tires rubbing against the pavement of the sidewalk. Wait, the sidewalk?!
"Belle, watch out!"
Seeing that the situation was not right, Wise also immediately rushed forward to try and pull Belle. The latter was still a bit dazed. "Eh? What... ah!"
When she saw the out-of-control car speeding towards them in the distance, Belle was immediately startled. But at this distance, she couldn't dodge it on her own.
"Watch out!"
Just as Wise rushed forward and grabbed one of Belle's arms, wanting to pull her back, a clear female voice also sounded from the other side at the same time, accompanied by a rapidly approaching figure. Wise reached out to pull Belle back, while the other person was in a tackling posture. The two of them reached Belle almost at the same time. This also caused Wise's action to make both of them fall into his arms. Then, he heard a loud bang. He noticed out of the corner of his eye that it was a green-haired girl with pigtails who had forcefully stopped the out-of-control car with a long staff-like weapon.
"I'm very sorry. Are you two alright?" The Public Security officer who had tackled them quickly got up and at the same time reached out her hand, wanting to help them up.
"Mmph, I'm fine. Thank you very much, Miss Officer." Looking at the black-haired officer with a ponytail and some red highlights in front of her, because the other party had just saved her, Belle also expressed her thanks.
And the latter, seeing this, just shook her head and then looked at Wise at the side. "You're welcome. My name is Zhu Yuan, and I'm a Public Security officer. Actually, even if I hadn't made a move, you would have been fine."
What Zhu Yuan was referring to was naturally Wise's action just now. That agile skill was clearly not something a normal person should have. But this point alone couldn't prove anything.
"Zhu Yuan, I've already arrested the person. How is it on your end? Is anyone injured?"
"Ah, reporting to Senior Qingyi, there are no injuries."
The one Zhu Yuan called Senior Qingyi was precisely the pigtail-haired girl who had stopped the car just now.
"Mmm-hmm, that's good." Qingyi nodded after hearing this. Afterward, after a round of mutual self-introductions, Wise and Belle also decided to go back with them. On one hand, it was to get their driver's licenses; on the other hand, it was also to give a statement about what had just happened.
However, during the process of giving the statement, Qingyi discovered that Zhu Yuan seemed to be overly interested in information about Wise, and some of the questions she asked were even out of bounds. So after finishing the statement, she also came to Zhu Yuan's side with a gossipy look on her face.
"What's wrong? Our Officer Zhu Yuan seems to be very interested in that young man named Wise. That's right, after all, you've reached the age of marriage. It's very normal to want to find a boyfriend. And that young man named Wise looks very outstanding in all aspects, so he's worthy of our Zhu Yuan." As she spoke, Qingyi also nodded with a look of certainty. And Zhu Yuan, hearing this, couldn't remain calm at all.
"Senior Qingyi, what nonsense are you talking about! I don't have that kind of thought! I was just..."
"Just what? Wanting to first understand the other party's preferences, so as to better promote the relationship, is that it?"
"That's not it at all!"
Under duress, Zhu Yuan also explained her original thoughts to Qingyi and strongly affirmed that she was just trying to confirm this point.
"Alright, alright, then it was my mistake. What a pity. I thought someone had finally caught your attention, Zhu Yuan. After all, you can't always put all your mind on work. So... hey, what are you doing? Don't go!"
"Senior, Wise and Belle should have also finished their business by now. I'll go see them off."
Zhu Yuan really couldn't stand Qingyi's nagging in this aspect, so she found an excuse to leave. And the latter, seeing this, could only helplessly follow.
