Chen could not tolerate these people who were disrupting the order of Lungmen, and decided to personally escort the Cat Gang leader. She would use the law to bring these criminals to justice!

After completing the task, Hong and Waai Fu resigned from the position of Rat King and left the scene, driving back to find Lee.

Texas led her colleagues and Lappland out of the hall. The members of the Special Inspectorate had seen Shi Lei several times, and no one dared to stop him from giving a statement.

Before long, Texas found an open-air balcony and stopped there.

Exusiai had been scrutinizing the Silver-haired Lupo the whole time. Seeing that there were no outsiders present, she asked:

"Is she the one you've been looking for in the Lower City for over half a month?"

Lappland was delighted and grinned at the gray wolf:

"Hey, so you were looking for me all this time? Were you worried about me, afraid something had happened to me?"

No.

Texas vehemently denied it, explaining:

"I just find you annoying and want to get rid Lungmen you as soon as possible."

"Texas, are you really that heartless? I have nowhere else to go."

Exusiai looked puzzled and continued:

"Go back to your home. Don't you have a home?"

Lappland was saying sad things, but she maintained an optimistic smile the whole time.

"I have left my family and am now a Lone Wolf. Lone Wolf has no home."

Seeing Texas's troubled expression, Shi Lei pondered for a moment and then suggested:

"If you don't know what to do with her, I do have a very suitable place for her."

"If you don't know what to do with her, I do have a very suitable place for her."

When Lappland heard that Shi Lei wanted to relocate him, he immediately protested:

"No, I'm not going anywhere. I've traveled all this way to Lungmen to see Texas."

Texas's expression was cold, but that was always her way; no change in emotion could be discerned. Only her accelerated speech offered a glimpse into her true feelings:

"No! You have to leave Lungmen right now!"

Lappland was all smiles one second, then suddenly switched to a pitiful look the next:

"I finally made it all this way, and you're already trying to kick me out? Do you know how difficult it is for infected people to get into the Upper City Lungmen? I killed those gang leaders to raise the money for the smuggling trip Upper City. And now you want to kick me out as soon as I get here?"

Texas knew this was Morality blackmail, but for a moment she didn't know how to refute it.

"Hey-hey."

Lappland's smile vanished in an instant. The speed at which he changed his expression was astonishing. A stranger would have thought he had a split personality.

Her gaze shifted from Texas to Shi Lei, and she suggested:

"How about I stay at this gentleman's house for a while? With him there, he should be able to keep an eye on me."

Exusiai actually nodded and echoed:

"Hmm, that sounds like a good idea. To be honest, his house is quite big, so there shouldn't be any problem with one more person living there. And with Zhongli watching over you, you definitely won't go out and cause trouble, so everyone can rest assured."

Upon hearing that her colleague actually agreed with this terrible idea, Texas Exusiai, "Exusiai, which side are you on?"

"No, you can't stay at his place!"

Seeing her voice rise, clearly indicating she was getting anxious, Lappland's lips curled into a wide grin, the smile deepening.

Haha, I found out! You learned your invulnerability from Zhongli.

Texas, if I replicate your experience, I'll have a chance to master that ability. Are you afraid that once I learn it, I'll no longer be able to defeat me?

The more you forbid me from doing something, the more I'll do it!

I'm not only going to learn from Zhongli, but I'm also going to live with him. I'll try to learn this skill in less time than you. So, Texas, can you do it?

Lappland, sensing that she had grasped the opponent's little scheme, launched her first offensive:

"Why can't I live with him?"

Texas looked annoyed, a stark contrast to her usual icy beauty.

"I said no, and that means no!"

Since arriving in Lungmen, Texas has abandoned her past and started a new life. She doesn't want Lappland, that crazy woman, near her friends, not even Exusiai, Croissant, or Shi Lei.

But the more explicitly she refused, the more she gave Lappland...

Opportunity to refute:

"Your friends all think the suggestion is good, so why do you think it's no good? Do you dislike me that much?"

Texas opened her mouth, then quickly realized she had lost her composure and swiftly regained her composure.

"We already went to enough trouble for Mister Zhongli to capture you, so we can't trouble him any further now."

Lappland smiled smugly, not believing the other party's explanation.

Chelinina.

Just admit you're afraid I'll steal him away. Don't think I don't know you learned your skills from him.

"If you insist on opposing it, I have no objection. But besides him, do you have a better solution?"

"..."

Seeing Texas fall silent, Shi Lei stepped in to smooth things over, reiterating the previous plan:

"Yes, having Mudrock in charge of you would be a better choice than me."

Both are women and infected, so there shouldn't be any inconveniences for them living together. Moreover, Mudrock defeated Lappland, so in terms of strength, she can completely control her.

Texas looked at Shi Lei approvingly after hearing the suggestion, and then echoed:

"Indeed, Mudrock would be a better choice."

No, who is this Mudrock?

Lappland was about to walk to his side when Texas used her movement skills to block her from between them:

"Zhongli, put handcuffs on her. Get her to Mudrock as soon as possible so we can come back for dinner sooner."

When the topic of food came up, Exusiai touched her stomach with her right hand, quickly feeling hungry. Even though she doesn't exercise much each day, she still craves high-calorie foods.

"The car's downstairs, let's head out now. We'll throw a pizza party later to celebrate Zhongli completing his mission, how about that?"

"Don't be so wary of me. Let's go eat together. I don't even know Mudrock. What if he hurts someone? I won't be responsible then."

Following Texas's suggestion, Shi Lei conjured up Rock Element handcuffs and put them on the Silver-haired Lupo.

"You were injured by Mudrock when you escaped from the Lower City."

Lappland twitched the corners of her mouth slightly, and quickly remembered who the other person was.

It's that burly hammer-wielding guy with the Magic Shield who can summon red stone golems, right? He can beat me, but he's not that great.

Given the colossus's immense size, its immense power was perfectly normal. No matter how destructive it was, it was all within Lappland's expectations. She had no interest in an opponent whose limits could be predicted.

But Zhongli is different.

At least until Lappland figured out those incomprehensible abilities, he would remain interested in him.

"No way, that's too heartless. Your house is quite big, is it alright if I stay here for a while? I used to be very close to Texas, she..."

That was before.

Texas didn't understand why she insisted on living with Shi Lei and tried to correct their relationship:

"We're not that close now."

Lappland didn't seem to be affected; she kept saying she was sad, but a smile still graced her face.

"Oh, my old friend, this sounds terrible, it's so heartbreaking."

"It's always good to be cautious with you."

Urged on by Texas, Lappland reluctantly walked outside.

The five of them left the open-air balcony and met Miss Zhu waiting for them at the entrance of the Hatton Hotel.

She knew that she was safe and sound during the violent explosion today entirely because of Shi Lei.

When I invited him to his birthday party, he said he couldn't come because of other commitments. Turns out he was just using a different method to protect himself; I really misunderstood him.

"Mister Zhongli, thank you so much."

"You're welcome. It was just a small favor. If there's nothing else, we'll be going now."

The five people arrived at the street and got into the car.

Texas inserted the key and started the engine, glancing at the Lappland in the back seat through the rearview mirror. Feeling something was amiss, she got out, opened the car door, and said:

"Croissant, you drive."

"Me? Okay."

Croissant had no objection and switched places with her.

Now Texas and Exusiai are sandwiched between Lappland, who is wearing Rock handcuffs.

After leaving the Core City, the car headed towards the Lower City. It took about forty minutes, until sunset, before they reached the checkpoint between the Upper City and Lower City.

When it was Croissant 'Croissant turn in the queue, the Lungmen Guard Department officer spotted Shi Lei sitting in the passenger seat. His gaze swept back, and besides the three Penguin Logistics Messenger, he also saw a strange Female Lupo.

The officers skipped the inspection procedure and opened the gate. As the car drove away, they didn't forget to call out:

"Mister Zhongli, please take care."

Lappland craned her neck, turned her head to look at the checkpoint that was receding into the distance, and asked in confusion:

"I heard that infected people can sneak into the Upper City as long as they pay money. Is that true?"

Texas didn't want to respond. She remained silent. Exusiai, unaware of this, also kept quiet.

Because of her wicked personality, Lappland was often ostracized by the public. She was used to being ignored like this.

Perhaps to ease the awkwardness, or perhaps simply unaware of what awkwardness was, Lappland grinned and began to reveal some behind-the-scenes gossip:

"Let me tell you, Texas used to be really tough. She could take on a whole bunch of those small fry by herself."

By the way, given her personality, she probably hasn't told you about her past, right? Maybe I should tell you today..."

Texas was really annoyed by this incessant chatter and finally snapped:

"Enough, shut up!"

Like a mischievous child who has finally received his parents' attention, Lappland quieted down contentedly.

April 1, 6.54. pm

Mudrock worked under Lin Gerei, doing a nine-to-five job. After work, he would return to the base and spend long hours in the Clay Sculpture room.

After dinner today, she came here as usual and hugged the leg of the Stone Statues of Shi Lei tightly.

This is so unbearable every day. I really want to buy the warehouse soon and stay by my owner's side forever.

But buying the warehouse would require a lot of money.

Even though Mudrock earns a high salary of 200,000 yuan a month without paying taxes, he still has to hold out until July when he gets paid.

Three months, 90 days, that's such a long time.

But for my master, it's all worth it.

Mudrock was immersed in complex emotions when he suddenly heard a knock on the door, followed by V's voice:
