My Chat Group Is Seriously Too Strange - Chapter 190
As the brother's most caring younger sister, I should try my best to help him manage the household affairs.
Ling slapped her face twice, her eyes filled with fighting spirit!
"Today, I must work hard so that my brother can see how hard I'm working!"
However, before Ling's fighting spirit could be ignited, the sound of her stomach growling extinguished it completely.
"Ugh~ I'm so hungry. I wonder if my brother left me any breakfast."
Defeated by hunger, the salted fish sister slowly climbed out of Mo Wang's bed.
When she saw the empty dining table, she knew that Mo Wang had indeed left in a hurry today.
Seeing that her brother hadn't prepared a lovingly prepared breakfast, Rin had no choice but to make herself a bowl of instant noodles and start eating.
Ten minutes later, having finished the battle, Ling felt as if she had come back to life.
"Phew~ Energy replenished! Fairy! List out all the remaining tasks for me right now. I'm going to start working hard today!"
Feeling confident that she was back in the game, Ling spoke energetically to her AI assistant.
However, when Bell asked, Fairy simply replied, "I'm sorry, all the work on the Inter-Knot has already been completed by the master. There are currently no requests that need to be completed."
"What?! It's all done?!"
Upon hearing that the Inter-Knot work had been completely completed, Ling's initial fighting spirit was once again quickly extinguished.
"To be precise, the owner had already completed all the work on the Inter-Knot a week ago."
"I'm sorry, but Master Mo Wang is indeed a near-omnipotent person. The Inter-Knot work doesn't need Ling to handle it."
Hearing Fairy say that, Rin quickly lowered her head.
Okay, although what Fairy said was harsh, it is indeed the truth.
Thinking about his job, he is exceptionally capable, a unique figure in New Ailidou. He is proficient in engineering, architecture, mechanical manufacturing, management, medicine, combat command, and even has considerable knowledge of music and film.
In the entire Ailidou, there was practically no one more powerful than his brother.
This is why Mo Wang can raise the favorability of almost all organizations, including the Special Investigation Unit and the Air Defense Section Six, and even make them eager to Mo Wang join them.
"But! How can I earn my brother's respect if I don't complete the mission?"
"Doesn't this make it seem like I'm doing absolutely nothing all day, just being a complete couch potato?!"
At this moment, Ling thought about this and suddenly wondered if she was going to become the kind of useless little sister in novels who does nothing but slack off.
This kind of character is just too much.
Faced with Rin's idea, Fairy and her little Bangboo were speechless.
Isn't this guy always just a lazy bum at home?
After realizing that she couldn't do any Inter-Knot work, Suzuya had no choice but to focus on running her family's video store.
The video store's business is just average. Usually, it only gets crowded when a few special people, like celebrities such as Astra, come to promote their products.
Most of the time, there are hardly any people in the store.
That makes sense, given how developed the internet is these days. Apart from a few die-hard fans, not many people would specifically come to the store to rent video recordings.
However, Ling knew that although her shop's business was mediocre, it always attracted some 'special' customers, for example...
Good morning! Ring! Here we come!
Just then, Grace and Colette from Baiqi Heavy Industry pushed open the door and walked into the video store together.
"Good morning, Colette, Grace. Are you here to rent videos again today? Or do you have a new request?"
Baiqi Heavy Industry as a valuable collaborator for their family, and Ling naturally greeted him with a smile.
But looking at the expressions of the two people, Ling's sixth sense told her that there must be something fishy about their presence here today.
"Cough cough cough, no, no, we didn't come here today to do these things."
When asked by Rin, Colette quickly denied it.
"Huh? Could it be that they've come to visit me?"
Upon hearing Colette's denial, Rin's expression instantly turned cold.
"Well, speaking of which, isn't Mo Wang here today?"
With a slightly embarrassed Colette, Koreta quickly began searching the store.
"My brother went out today on some errands. May I ask what business you two have with him?"
Ling stared at the two men with a forced smile, already fully aware of their intentions.
"Actually, there's nothing much to say. I just came to see Eous and also to discuss the development of the new machine with Mo Wang."
"I also plan to discuss with Mo Wang the company's operating methods and some operational issues."
Faced with Ling's question, the two women quickly began to make excuses.
When faced with the two people's clumsy lies, Ling simply chuckled.
Who's asking these questions? They're clearly just trying to freeload off their brother!
Don't think she didn't know; these two had been plotting against her brother for a long time.
Grace, in particular, not only plotted against her own brother, but also targeted Eous.
They simply wanted to devour their own family and clean up their mess!
"I'm so sorry, my brother isn't here today."
"Then we'll wait..."
"I'm sorry, my brother won't be back until very late today. Our little shop is quite busy today, so it's difficult to entertain you two. If there's anything you need, I'll let him know when he gets back."
With just a few words, Ling effectively shut down both Colette and Grace.
Looking at the still empty shop, the two wanted to ask Ling what she was busy with.
But upon seeing Ling's eerie smile, the two could only leave the video store dejectedly.
Before Ling could even breathe a sigh of relief, two familiar faces pushed open the shop door.
"Officer Zhu Yuan, and Qing Yi too? What brings you here?"
When she saw that it was actually the Special Operations Team who had come, Ling smiled again.
"Long time no see, Ling. May I ask if Mo Wang is home today?"
Upon entering the shop, Zhu Yuan immediately inquired about Mo Wang's whereabouts.
Upon hearing this, Ling felt quite agitated.
Why are there so many bitches here today?
Ling originally wanted to do what she did before and just kick people out.
However, since these two were from the National Security Bureau, they were real police officers, and even Ling felt awkward about kicking them out directly.
"No, he's not here. My brother went out on something."
Ah... not here again... Zhu Yuan's shoulders slumped instantly. She leaned against the counter, looking lost and dejected, her fingers unconsciously twirling around the ends of her hair.
Seeing this, Qing Yi gently patted her partner's shoulder. "The shopkeeper has indeed been very busy lately. Last time he went to the Air Defense Section Six to debug the new drive core, and the day before yesterday he was asked by Baiqi Heavy Industry to solve the energy problem..."
"But what Mo Wang hadn't helped..."
Zhu Yuan bit her lip, her voice growing softer and softer, "The ' Phantom ' case..."
"Um, you two sound like you're in a hurry. May I ask what brings you here to see my brother?"
Ling asked, her expression somewhat embarrassed.
Qing Yi and Zhu Yuan exchanged a glance, seemingly hesitant. Finally, Qing Yi lowered her voice and asked, "Miss Ling... have you heard any... strange rumors online recently?"
"Strange rumors?"
Ling blinked. "You mean..."
Zhu Yuan took a deep breath and tapped her fingers lightly on the counter. "Recently, in certain areas of New Ailidou, people have reported seeing a speeding car. This car is incredibly fast, like Phantom. Every time it appears, it disappears into New Ailidou in a very short time."
"Yeah, even though we've used a lot of police resources, we still can't even get close to that car. It's really a formidable opponent. Rin, haven't you heard of it?"
At this moment, Qing Yi asked Ling mysteriously.
"W-what Phantom? I've never heard of that before. Aha ~"
Upon hearing Qing Yi's words, Ling's heart skipped a beat.
She knew all too well what Phantom was.
Isn't this my own brother?
The cops are now coming to our door; this is really scary.
"So, what does this urban legend have to do with you guys looking for your brother?"
Ling swallowed hard and quickly asked.
"It's nothing, I just wanted to use the store manager's criminal investigation skills and tracking techniques. After all, you know, your brother is practically the best in the entire Ailidou in these areas."
Of course I know! But, but that Phantom was my brother!
At this point, Ling was speechless. The police actually came to her brother to investigate her.
It's probably something we'll never be able to figure out in this lifetime.
This is like a werewolf in Werewolf who has become a police officer or a seer. What's the point of playing then?
"It's a real pity, but there's nothing we can do about it. Anyway, there's no rush with the Phantom matter. I'll just ask you to tell Mo Wang to come over here when he has time."
Qing Yi was completely unconcerned about Mo Wang's absence.
After all, it seems that the Phantom hasn't caused any casualties so far. Compared to it, these people still have a bunch of troublesome guys to deal with.
Just like yesterday, the notorious gang of Tunnel Raiders they had been investigating for a long time was inexplicably eliminated.
Furthermore, they suffered severe psychological trauma. When asked what they had experienced, they all said they had been beaten up by the Star Knight.
"Definitely, definitely, next time."
Ling quickly saw the two people off, but what awaited her were even more people coming to find Mo Wang, all of them girls.
"Ugh! That's enough! Just how many girls does my brother flirt with?! And why does he have so much work?!"
Looking at all these notes inviting her brother to meet, Rin felt an urge to tear them all up in one go.
"Hmph, you stinky brother. He's usually so dense, how come so many girls like him?"
At this moment, Ling said somewhat angrily.
"Ring! I'm back!"
Just then, the door to the video store was pushed open once again.
"Brother! You..."
The moment Mo Wang Gate of Opening, Ling, who had just excitedly stood up, immediately revealed a deadpan expression.
"Brother, what's that in your arms?"
At this moment, Ling's gaze was fixed on the little thing in Mo Wang's arms.
"Oh, this. I just picked up Bangboo!"
Mo Wang then showed Ling what he was holding, as if he were showing off.
"Of course I know it's Bangboo! I mean, why did you pick up another one?!"
At this moment, Ling complained weakly to Mo Wang, as if this was not the first time she had seen something like this.
That's right. As the most versatile and strongest person in the city, and also her brother Mo Wang, besides having an excessive number of romantic encounters, he is also a serious fan of Bangboo.
This strange luck with women doesn't seem to be limited to girls; it also seems to attract boys and even Bangboo.
"Because it was so cute, and nobody else wanted it, I took it in."
Mo Wang said quite naturally.
"I, Yan A, am a man of great talent and virtue, a man of noble character and noble character...
Ling was speechless. Thinking about her own backyard, she had no idea how many Bangboo were outside.
