Amon narrowed his eyes as he watched the blue sports car vanish into the distance. He had a feeling that Long Legs was no ordinary woman either.
Mai Sakatoku held the steering wheel with one hand and a plastic bag with the other, stuffing a bun into her mouth. She ate quickly, finishing the food in just a few bites.
Her phone rang. She swiped open the screen, and Su Enxi's voice came through. "Long Legs, Long Legs, where are you?"
"I'm near the Central City Hospital right now, Potato Chip. Spit it out if you've got something to say. I'm busy as hell."
"My, my, sounds like you've got quite a lot of resentment built up. You practically sound like a neglected housewife," Su Enxi teased.
"I've been busy as a spinning top. I haven't showered in almost a week, and I've just been grabbing a few buns from roadside stalls, packing them up, and eating while I walk. It's all because of this damned 'God's Blood'... I'm more miserable than a neglected housewife!"
"Well, that stuff is too important. Boss is taking it more seriously than ever... He said that damned thing absolutely cannot appear anywhere near Little White Rabbit. It could cause Little White Rabbit to go berserk and send things spiraling in an uncontrollable direction. Long Legs, since you're the capable one, the job of keeping the area around the rabbit nest stable has to fall to you... Keep it up. You're the best."
"Being capable doesn't mean you can work me like livestock..." Mai Sakatoku rolled her eyes. "After this run, I'm taking a long vacation."
"No problem. As long as Boss approves the time off, spend as much money as you want!" Su Enxi said generously.
"You said it!" Mai Sakatoku's eyes lit up.
