Do You Regret It?

"Well?"

Fang Li was dumbfounded when he saw Aria suddenly lower her head and start to cry.

Fang Li immediately stepped forward, sat down next to Aria, and began patting her back, asking, "What's wrong? Why are you suddenly crying?"

"It's nothing..." Aria pouted, wiped away her tears, and said with a hint of joy, "I'm just so happy. It's the first time I've heard someone say that my mother was wronged."

"Your mother?" Fang Li was stunned on the spot.

Under these circumstances, Aria bit her lip, looked at Fang Li, and said, "The person who was arrested on charges of being Armed Detective Killer is my mother."

Upon hearing this, Fang Li finally realized what was happening.

No wonder Aria had been chasing this criminal even before this incident began.

Fang Li was initially puzzled. It was just a copycat of a Armed Detective Killer. As S-Rank Armed Detective, Aria shouldn't have any reason to keep chasing after such a criminal.

Now, Fang Li finally understood that Aria had determined from the very beginning that this criminal was the real Armed Detective Killer, which was why she had been chasing after him all this time.

Furthermore, Aria whispered, "It's not just the Armed Detective Killer. My mother carries the stigma of many criminal members within a very powerful organization. The Armed Detective Killer is just one member of that organization."

"A very powerful organization?" Fang Li frowned and asked, "What organization?"

"I can't tell you that." Aria raised her head, a hint of seriousness appearing on her youthful face, and said, "That's an organization that even many major powers have to be wary of. If you casually reveal the information, you'll be targeted by the country's secret agencies."

"Is that so?" Fang Li's tightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed, and he said somewhat indifferently, "I'm happy to have some peace and quiet if you don't tell me, but your mother is burdened with the guilt of many people in this organization. What do you plan to do?"

"Of course, we should arrest them all!" Aria said without hesitation. "I will arrest all the criminals who framed my mother and clear her name!"

"If that's the case, then it means that as your partner, I'll have to face them sooner or later, right?" Fang Li glanced at Aria and said with a half-smile, "In that case, even if you don't tell me, I'll still find out."

Aria was speechless for a moment, then sat upright on the sofa, her crimson eyes glancing furtively at Fang Li as she cautiously asked, "Do you regret it?"

What Aria was referring to was naturally becoming his partner.

In order to rescue her wrongly accused mother, Aria must confront a criminal organization that even many great powers have to be wary of.

It's easy to imagine how dangerous it would be for a small armed reconnaissance unit to face such a behemoth if even the state is wary of this organization.

Perhaps Aria was so eager to find a partner so that she would be able to deal with this organization.

In other words, strictly speaking, Fang Li was dragged into this mess.

However, at this moment, Fang Li smiled.

Moreover, it was a genuine laugh from the bottom of my heart.

"Has my wait finally come true?"

Throughout the year, Fang Li has been working tirelessly on the Main Mission Two, completing numerous commissions and earning 3,500 quest points.

In other words, Fang Li's Main Mission Two has been completed.

Fang Li did not deliberately complete the remaining Main Mission Three and Main Mission Four.

On the one hand, it was because Fang Li was focused on the Main Mission Two, and on the other hand, it was because Fang Li had not found an opportunity.

The Main Mission Three requires Fang Li to collect the blood of a great man.

In this world, many great figures who are famous in history books have left their descendants, resulting in the emergence of many superhumans.

Aria, standing before me, is one of them. She inherited the bloodline of a famous England detective. Although she did not inherit his reasoning ability, she possesses extraordinary strength.

Kinji Touyama's Toyama family is another example.

In Armed Detective High School, there are many people like this.

But Fang Li can't just ask someone to give him some blood for no reason, can he?

Of course, if you really want to get blood, there are plenty of ways to Fang Li.

Therefore, Fang Li's original plan was to focus on completing the Main Mission Two before considering the Main Mission Three.

Now, it's time to do it.

However, the Main Mission Four requires the arrest of a criminal who is not human.

Throughout the year, Fang Li traveled to almost every place in order to complete the mission, but he did not encounter any non-human beings and could not find an opportunity to complete the mission.

In addition, Fang Li hadn't triggered Side Mission or found any opportunities to earn Exchange Points over the past year, Fang Li was really starting to hope that more things would happen around him.

Clearly, Aria presented Fang Li with this opportunity.

The opponent is a criminal organization that even major powers are wary of.

Therefore, it is highly likely that such inhuman beings exist within such an organization.

And when facing such a behemoth, the chances of triggering Side Mission will definitely increase significantly.

It would be even better if this organization also had a large number of people who inherited the bloodline of great figures.

Thinking of this, Fang Li genuinely laughed from the bottom of his heart.

So, Fang Li said this.

Tell me.

Aria was stunned upon hearing this.

"Name," Fang Li said, looking at the stunned Aria. "At least tell me the name of that criminal organization."

Upon hearing this, Aria pondered for a moment before slowly speaking.

"Yi-You".

"Yi-You..." Fang Li lowered his head and silently memorized the name.

Then, Fang Li said to Aria, "So, the first one is the Armed Detective Killer, right?"

Aria blinked, seemingly a little taken aback.

Looking at Aria, Fang Li smiled and said, "First, we'll arrest this Armed Detective Killer. That way, your mother's crimes can be partially cleared, and the Armed Detective Killer's debt to me can be repaid all at once."

"So..." Aria said with some delight, "You don't regret partnering with me?"

Fang Li looked at Aria, smiled suddenly, and spoke softly.

"Article Two of the Armed Detective Charter: Absolutely abide by the contract made with the client."

"Since you have agreed to my conditions, I will keep my promise and become your partner."

"Absolutely, I won't regret it."

Fang Li's words made Aria's crimson eyes tremble, and she finally smiled happily.

That smile was more adorable than ever before.
