Chapter 267
Then, in Luo Mio's line of sight, a very familiar, petite figure stood outside the door.
The figure has short, light chestnut hair with slightly longer, braided strands on either side of her face. She is wearing a dark-colored long-sleeved jumpsuit and small, tight-fitting pants.
"Xia Shi?!" Luo Mio was slightly surprised when she saw the appearance of the figure standing outside the door.
The petite figure was none other than Chizuru Kaseyo, the Initiator partner of Ikuma Shogen, who had briefly fought alongside Luo Mio before.
Although Luo Mio sensed a familiar aura just now, she did not expect it to be Chizuru Kaseyo.
"It's been a long time, Brother Dongtang."
With her usual expressionless face, Chizuru Kaseyo bowed slightly to Luo Mio and greeted her, though a look of joy could be seen in her eyes.
"Yeah, it's been a long time, about a week, hasn't it?"
Luo Mio looked at Chizuru Kaseyo with her azure eyes.
"But now I remember you were probably waiting to arrange the next facilitator."
Chizuru Kaseyo's facilitator, Ikuma Shogen, died in the "Scorpio" incident. In the event of a facilitator's death or loss of police officer status, the initiator will be brought back into custody immediately. That is, after the "Scorpio" incident ended, Chizuru Kaseyo was brought back into custody by "IISO" to await the arrangement of her next facilitator.
Upon realizing this, Luo Mio immediately understood what the girl meant by the gift.
"This is the surprise you were talking about?"
The girl's pure and holy face revealed a very beautiful smile.
"Hmm." The girl nodded gently, then coughed and said in a very solemn tone.
"From now on, the Dolphin Factor Chizuru Kaseyo will become the initiator partner of the promoter Toudo Touka."
After saying that, the girl gave Luo Mio a playful smile.
"..."
Luo Mio blinked, silently looking at the girl, then at the expressionless Chizuru Kaseyo.
Touching his nose, Luo Mio spoke to the girl.
"Um... I already have an Initiator partner."
"I know Xiao Cui is the one who started this."
In order to enable Fuse Midori to live a reasonable life in the city, Luo Mio took her to "IISO" to register as her initiator.
However, in order to prevent the excessive viral infection rate of Fuse Midori from slowly increasing, Luo Mio made a three-point agreement with her. From then on, Fuse Midori basically spent her time at home, and even when she went out, she would not go too far from home.
However, Luo Mio would occasionally train Fuse Midori's physical fitness and control.
The girl revealed a playful side that most people never see.
"So I used my privilege to make Xia Shi your second Initiator partner. Because I know you won't let Xiao Cui fight, I made Xia Shi your Initiator to handle your logistics."
After hearing the girl's words, Luo Mio rubbed her forehead speechlessly before speaking.
"But would IISO allow this? There's never been a precedent for this."
"Indeed, there was an obstacle... initially."
The girl winked playfully with her right eye.
"Initial?"
"Um."
The girl nodded.
"When I first made this proposal, it was indeed rejected by IISO. However, later, after the senior management of IISO heard my proposal and learned that I was the facilitator, they readily agreed to it."
"Senior management of IISO..."
Luo Mio's azure eyes widened slightly, as if she knew who it was, and she sighed with a wry smile.
"So it was him..."
"Brother, do you know anyone at IISO?"
"Um."
Luo Mio shrugged.
"I once saved that old man's life in the 'Uncharted Territory' in China. At the time, I didn't pay much attention to his identity, until later when I was registering police information, and that's when he noticed me."
"However, thanks to him, most of my information is also classified within IISO."
The girl seemed thoughtful after hearing Luo Mio's words.
"No wonder your information is in the 'IP Ranking' but not in the ranking."
"So, please take care of me from now on, Brother Dongtang."
Chizuru Kaseyo bowed to Luo Mio.
Looking at Chizuru Kaseyo's adorable face with its blank expression.
Luo Mio also gently rubbed her nose.
"Yes, please guide me."
Luo Mio extended her hand and placed it in front of Chizuru Kaseyo.
"Um!"
A delicate, small hand reached out and gently grasped Luo Mio's slender, warm hand.
——
"..."
Walking home, Luo Mio fell into a deathly silence.
Meanwhile, Chizuru Kaseyo's petite figure followed beside Luo Mio.
Halfway through the journey, Luo Mio suddenly remembered...
We already have two little ones at home, Fuse Midori and Yue.
And now...
Luo Mio glanced slightly at the emotionless Chizuru Kaseyo beside her with her azure eyes.
The cute little girl turned into three...
Soft and cute loli, aloof loli... and now... emotionless loli.
"Now all that's missing is his tsundere attitude."
In my mind, the system's voice complained.
"..."
Luo Mio felt a slight blush.
It seems I'm destined to be Grandpa Bayi's cellmate.
"The Dragon King has several adorable little girls by his side, while you only have three... That's far from enough, young man."
"..."
"Can you shut up?!"
In reality, after seeing Luo Mio's subtle and complex expression, Chizuru Kaseyo...
A hint of sadness appeared on Sanwu's face.
"Did my appearance cause trouble for Brother Dongtang?"
Upon hearing Chizuru Kaseyo's voice, Luo Mio snapped out of her daze and quickly waved to the girl.
"No, no, don't worry about it."
And at that very moment—
"————"
A strange sound, like the sound of wind, yet subtle and peculiar, reached Luo Mio's ears.
Luo Mio glanced at it slightly, and then the depths of her eyes rippled like a pebble falling into a lake.
The next moment, in the direction of Luo Mio's house, a dark golden flame that only Luo Mio could see instantly engulfed the surrounding area in flames.
Luo Mio was startled, then looked in the direction of home.
The raging flames suddenly made a thumbs-up gesture towards Luo Mio.
Seeing this, Luo Mio shook her head with amusement.
"What's wrong?"
Chizuru Kaseyo noticed the unusual coldness in Luo Mio's eyes at first, but now she had an amused expression, and asked her.
Looking at the dolphin girl, Luo Mio smiled gently.
"It's nothing, let's go back quickly."
"... Um."
Chapter 45:?????
"Chizuru Kaseyo, please guide me!"
Chizuru Kaseyo stood in the living room, introducing herself to the two little girls, Fuse Midori and Tsuki.
"Ah... Moon."
Yue introduced herself to Chizuru Kaseyo, but because of what she had suffered in the past, she rarely spoke, whether it was during self-introduction or ordinary communication. She was the type of person who rarely showed her emotions on her face.
"Fuse Midori, nice to meet you!"
Watching the three little ones greet each other, Luo Mio touched her nose.
Then, looking towards her room, she silently asked herself, "Is anything unusual today?"
"Abnormal?"
In his mind, the lazy voice of the Book of Cang Xuan Profound echoed, then said, "Could it be considered an anomaly?"
Huh?
Book of Cang Xuan yawned and said lazily, "This afternoon, on a tall building in the distance, a little girl was using a sniper rifle to observe the two little girls in my family."
"However, I didn't see that the little girl showed any malice or hostility. Instead, she was staring at the two girls in a daze, so I ignored her."
"Far away..."
"Look, it's over there."
Luo Mio looked in the direction indicated by the Book of Cang Xuan Profound in her mind.
Seeing the tall buildings, already somewhat blurred under the night sky, Luo Mio felt a little embarrassed.
"You can observe people's expressions from this far away?"
"Heh." Book of Cang Xuan scoffed coldly. "Don't underestimate me, kid. The coverage of my Array of Profound Fire is quite extensive, and this time, with virtually unlimited energy as its power source, I can cover the entire Tokyo Area."
"Wow!" Luo Mio exclaimed in surprise upon hearing this. "As expected of the little ancestor, she easily accomplished what others couldn't."
"Then what you just did...?"
Then Luo Mio asked Book of Cang Xuan Luo Mio about what she had seen outside.
Dark golden flames erupted as if from hell, engulfing the surrounding area in a raging inferno.
"Ah, this."
Book of Cang Xuan yawned and said to Luo Mio, "Actually, that girl seems to have noticed your presence and then seems to be spreading information about the girl you just brought home, so I made a slight move to interfere with the surrounding space."
"So that's how it is."
Luo Mio lowered her eyes and pondered for a moment, then looked towards the far distance, at the top floor of a tall building that was completely blurred under the night.
"What? Are we going to go and bring her back now?"
"No, there's no need for that." Luo Mio's azure eyes looked at the top floor of the high-rise building, then turned to look at the three little ones talking to each other. "Being able to observe this place from such a distance, I already know who it is."
"Yeah."
