Congratulations, You've Learned to Answer First!!
It wasn't until the clock struck eight that Tian Huo, Qingyi and Anna, and the others finally returned home.
Private car service and a private driver—this can certainly be described as luxury.
--Except that they were in a police car.
To be honest, Bai Zhi felt somewhat silent when he saw Qingyi and Anna getting out of the police car carrying several bags, and then running to his side with their eyes lighting up when they saw him.
Although he could guess that the other party was delayed because something happened on the way, to go so far as to have a police car pick them up... what on earth were you guys doing out there???
"A tiny, insignificant incident occurred; the constables arrived a little too early."
Perhaps noticing the confusion and bewilderment in Bai Zhi's eyes, Tian Huo, who had stepped out of the front car, began to explain with a slightly displeased expression.
"On the way back, we were harassed by a bunch of drunk guys. I hit them a little too hard, which attracted even more people until the police arrived."
"That's not just a little bit too heavy; some of them may never be able to stand up again in their lifetime."
Just as Bai Zhi was speechless with frustration, a slightly cold voice rang out, the car door opened, and the Dead Zero, stepped out of the driver's seat of the police car.
"You yourself are an unregistered person with no identity information, yet you've blown such a small matter into such a big deal. In this Special sensitive period, it's not a big deal that the two girls are still young, but you yourself seem incredibly careless."
"What, should I not have intervened? The very existence of that kind of scum is a waste."
With his arms crossed, Tian Huo let out a soft hum.
"I've already been very restrained. It was those few who struck first; otherwise, those scum wouldn't have even left a trace."
"No, what I mean is that you're not decisive enough."
Shaking his head, the Dead Zero turned around and picked up a bag from the police car, speaking calmly.
"You should have taken care of all those troublemakers immediately, instead of letting them make calls and escalate the situation until it became unmanageable. The laws for common don't apply to Player; there's a more lenient set of laws for Player... Let's go inside and talk about it. I brought you your favorite KFC Kids Deluxe Meal."
--Her last words were spoken to Bai Zhi.
Bai Zhi: "..."
Beside him, the culprit, a White-haired loli, nonchalantly turned her head to look away.
There is one thing that Bai Zhi cannot avoid.
--The question of Qingyi, Anna, and Tian Huo's identities.
The three of them do not belong to this world. There is no information about them at all. In the Big Data Era of the 22nd century, they are essentially unregistered individuals.
After all, the Anomaly haven't gotten out of control in this world yet. common are still kept in the dark about Anomaly and the Player's affairs. Although they can be kept in the dark for a short time by taking advantage of the special circumstances in Binhai City, it's definitely not going to work in the long run.
Before Tian Huo arrived, due to their sensitive identities, Qingyi and Anna spent most of their time at home and rarely went out.
"These are the detailed identification documents for Qingyi and Anna, and their files have all been set up. Tian Huo's case is a little later, because I only found out today that she's Player from another world."
At the Gazebo at the end of the corridor, the Dead Zero, handed several file folders to Bai Zhi with a concise expression.
"Uh... thank you."
Seemingly completely unprepared for this, Bai Zhi paused for a moment before reaching out and taking the file folders.
To be honest, the other party had helped him a lot; he had originally planned to deal with this kind of thing later.
"... It was just a small thing, nothing more."
Unconsciously turning his gaze aside, the Dead Zero, calmly gave his reply.
"Also, if there's time, I can take you to the Relevant Department's base in Binhai City. In the next day or two, a medium-sized [Game] stored in Binhai City that we control will reopen. Clearing the [Game] will reward you with Attribute Potion and other related items... As a member of the [Night Watcher], this is one of the various benefits you should be entitled to."
"No... is this really appropriate?"
Bai Zhi seemed slightly puzzled.
"Chu Ci came to see me before, but I didn't agree to join the Night Watcher at that time. How did I become a member of the Night Watcher?"
"... Elder Xu a member of the Night Watcher, and as Elder Xu successor, you can naturally be considered a member of the Night Watcher as well. Family ties also count."
After a long period of silence, the Dead Zero finally managed to concoct a reason that seemed logically plausible but couldn't withstand close scrutiny.
"Okay, how about tomorrow?"
After thinking for a moment, Bai Zhi tentatively asked, and as soon as he said it, he clearly saw the Young Girl's eyes light up, completely different from her previous silence, and she answered without thinking.
I'll pick you up by car tomorrow morning.
"... Okay then."
Bai Zhi's lips twitched slightly as he began to speak.
"By the way, thank you so much for Tian Huo and the others. Otherwise, I might have had to go to the police station late at night to try and get them out of there..."
"Player enjoy certain privileges under the rules, so even if I hadn't happened to be there, nothing would have happened to them."
Shaking his head, the Dead Zero stood up from the table.
"The creation of Tian Huo's identity information file should be completed in Tian Hou. I'll pick you up tomorrow morning to go to the base. I'll head back now."
"Um... why don't you stay here for the night?"
Seeing the Young Girl turn and walk towards the gate, Bai Zhi hesitated for a moment before calling out to her.
"It's so late now, and you've come all this way..."
Before he could finish speaking, the other person stopped, turned to look at him, and nodded calmly.
"Good."
Bai Zhi: "..."
... You've even learned to answer first?
Having learned from the lesson of the last time when all the takeout he bought was mercilessly eaten by others after their business meeting, this time, Dead Zero deliberately bought a considerable amount of Bai Zhi's favorite... KFC Kids Deluxe Meal.
In addition, their conversation didn't last very long, so when they returned, there was still a lot of takeout left on the Coffee Table.
Sitting between a Blonde Loli and a White-haired loli, Bai Zhi glanced at the SpongeBob playing on the Television in front of him, then turned to look at the two lolis beside him, and then at Tian Huo, the Dead Zero, and Xia Wen, who were enjoying their takeout. Bai Zhi shared a children's meal with the two lolis beside him with a complicated expression.
... This was probably the most unforgettable meal he had ever eaten.
