duplicity

"Come and have a look," Xue Ran called to Nokulos, who had just come out of the bathroom, "It's on the Internet." At most, it took only half a day. Due to the unexplained subsidence of the ground, there was a traffic jam. Fortunately, the police rushed to block it In that area, there are still many passing citizens who use various technological devices such as mobile phones to blind the scene, and spread it to multiple international and communication platforms on the Internet.

"At present, the police have not made any statement, nor have they reported the loss..."

"Because before the collapse, the road above began to tremble with omens, and everyone around them ran away in fright, so in the end there were no dead or wounded. No matter how you look at it, it looks like it was planned in advance, doesn't it?"

"This shows that the other party is a very intelligent person. By the way, because of the negative energy, you said that you saw me remember it." Noculos changed his relaxed tone and asked with some serious meaning, "Look Where did it go?"

"..." Xue Ran could clearly sense Noculos' annoyance when his memory was exposed, which only showed that the other party didn't like being known about her by others.Indeed, there is no direct connection between one's background and the Black Flag organization, and exposing it would do more harm than good. Even if some colleagues had a good relationship before, certain bottom lines would not be touched.

"Probably you and your mother moved out to live there." Nokulos frowned before Xue Ran finished speaking, "Sorry, I didn't mean to see it." He didn't explain, and simply apologized.

"Huh (Huh)..., it's (right), nothing to make up, if it's you, it doesn't matter if you know it, it's not a shocking secret anyway, it's just very old-fashioned, letting others know it will only make me feel It's just annoying. Man, who doesn't like young people."

Nokulos felt his mood turn sour when he thought of his father, who had hardly been responsible.

"You live with your mother now? Is she okay?" After all, I saw Nokulos' mother muttering in a trance, saying Nokulos' real name, Swona, and pulling her when she was a child Going out with a box.

"There's nothing wrong with it, except that I'm sometimes mentally abnormal. She doesn't like me going out and wants me to stay in her sight. Of course, you know that's impossible." Noculos said calmly Narrating, leaving aside the matter of supporting the family and making money, it is impossible to join the black flag and just get a name and not get the mission, which also makes Xue Ran understand why he can hardly ask Nokulos when he is usually resting.

"And then, what are your plans?"

"I am very satisfied to be able to maintain the current state. As far as I am concerned, I have not thought of a better countermeasure for the time being, so that's it."

If she said there was no problem, Xue Ran would not ask any more questions. He had already seen what his partner could do in previous missions.

no problem.

"Because you didn't find it..."

"No, we found it. It's just that we couldn't bring them back under the circumstances. This is evidence." Noculos directly interrupted the prince sitting across the table, took out a bag from his pocket and threw it over. Inside is the only blood-stained gold coin that has not disappeared.

"So you didn't recover the remaining property, you failed." The prince stated in a calm and hoarse voice, and it seemed that he was not surprised that there were no ups and downs in his emotions. "In terms of liquidated damages..."

"It says 'find' and not 'retrieve', sir, please don't change the concept." If animation is used to represent Nokulos at this time, then there must be a "well" drawn on her head.

"Really, the subordinate is disrespectful, even the words are written wrong, which distorts the meaning to be expressed." The black robe prince casually criticized a certain subordinate whose name was not mentioned, and Xue Ran doubted whether this subordinate was real. exist.

"Since this is the case, then there is nothing I can do," the prince changed the subject, "The employment money was included in the property, but now, as you said, they have all disappeared, and the Nofiler clan can't get it now. Money, and what you put in your pockets should be enough to fill the uniform, if it’s not enough..." Hands as dry as chicken feet stretched out from the robe and threw the bag of money back, "Just use these to make up the number Bar."

Boomer: "What's wrong? Didn't you go well with this mission?"

Although the four of them and Nokulos, who was a spectator, got together to play cards again, Xue Ran and Nokulos, who had just returned, didn't have a smile on their faces, and they didn't exude a sense of satisfaction after completing the task perfectly.

How is this going?

"Doing this task always makes people feel uncomfortable. I feel suffocated in my heart." Xue Ran threw out the three sixes in his hand.

"Unfortunately, you are still in the mood to find the intelligence team to investigate the blood race." Nokulos, who was sitting behind them, interjected.

"What blood race?"

"Which blood race?"

"Who is so so!?"

The gossip souls of the three poker players suddenly ignited, and their eyes all went to Noculos.Xue Ran pursed his lips in dissatisfaction when he found himself being left alone.

"A timid Ventrue named Angus."

Butch: "Wow? It's a guy, right?"

Brick: "So you are twin?"

Boomer: "Oh?"

It was just a joke together, but Xue Ran didn't expect to deny it.

Boomer: "Really?" He looked at Noculos with blue eyes, as if asking "It's all right".

Nokulos: "Then I have to ask Xue Ran." Obviously she didn't care.

Xue Ran: "..."

Brick: "Bloods in Europe? They're quite different in age."

Xue Ran: "I'm not with him."

People always naturally think about boyfriends, so Xue Ran couldn't help but want to correct him.

Butch: "Just on a whim? So it seems that you are the one who took the initiative? I'm not wrong, right, you!" Seeing Xue Ran's eyes suddenly changed.

"Hmm..." Xue Ran replied vaguely. "Are you going to play the next game? It's been so long since I watched it. He stopped talking and greeted Noculos.

"No." But Noculos closed the book in his hand.

"Didn't you learn the specific rules and steps?"

"No, unless you ask a few more times, because I still care about that." Noculos said in a statement tone without blushing, and the RRB trio next to him were all hehe, this kind of thing can't be said What's with the weird atmosphere here?

Butch: "Don't stand still, Boomer, it's your turn." After gossiping for a while and seeing that it was no big deal, he turned his attention back to poker.

After the four players finished the round, Nokulos was pulled in to start the five-man tribute.

Boomer smiled and said, "Drawing the Ace of Hearts is very interesting. I want to find Barber and give it to her when I have time."

...it was a slip of the tongue.

When did he hook up with one of the Powerpuff Girls?The two brothers, one red and one green, thought of it.

"Huh? What did I say? Haven't you seen them since the alien robot incident?"

Then Butch stood up and stepped in front of Boomer, glaring at him with green eyes and questioning: "Say, why are you looking for her!" He shook his collar twice.

"What are you so excited about? I went to play with her." Boomer said, wondering why Butch showed an angry expression.

In the final analysis, no matter how severe the physiology is, it is only at the level of twelve or thirteen years old. Some people may be slightly affected, such as Brick, but some people will be completely affected in some aspects and behave like a real innocent child, such as Boomer.

"Forget it, just don't get carried away." Butch didn't know what to say when he saw Boomer's innocent face when he wanted to say something. "It's up to you." So this sentence is like setting a FLAG.

After more than a month——

"What's the matter so early in the morning?" Xue Ran called while sitting in front of the window just putting on his clothes before washing his face. He rubbed his sleepy red eyes and yawned listlessly and asked.

Nokulos on the opposite side paused for a moment, and some information was already spinning in his brain, but now is not the time to bring it up and make trouble.

Xue Ran already knew what the other party was thinking from the subtle changes in his breathing from the phone, and he meant something, he turned his head with a smile and looked at it calmly, shrinking his body into the thin quilt without even turning his head. A bunch that would like to show up.

"Boomer is missing," said the other end of the phone.

"Didn't they go on a mission? Was there an accident?" Pulled aside the half tube of lubricant on the bedside table, drank all the glass of water next to it, and the curtains were not opened because of someone.

"It is said that a series of magical explosions occurred, and Brick and Butch were seriously injured."

"Okay, my mission here is over, I can go back at noon, are you at the base now?" Standing up and lifting a corner of the curtain, he opened the curtains on both sides after finding that it was cloudy outside, and the person in the cup quickly went back. She shrank back and covered herself more tightly.

"Okay," Xue Ran replied, "Actually, I would like to see the reaction of Brick and Butch, their attitude towards the professor." Seems to have thought of something interesting, "If (If) Boomer' is really gone, what do you think of Brick and Butch? What will you do?"

After saying something on the other side, he waited a while and then said something to this side.

"Really? I just found it? Is this a good thing or a bad thing, then I'll go straight to the hospital. I shouldn't see Boomer for a while, so (well), see you at noon." After hanging up the phone, Xue Ran didn't care about the quilt The person went straight to pack himself and his simple luggage, and when it was almost done, he suddenly remembered that there was still a bag of blood in the bag and then turned back to the bed and threw it over.

"Fix it yourself, the bill has already been settled, I'll leave first if I have something to do." Then she left the suite without looking back.
