[Comprehensive British and American] How agents solve the single problem

17

What's more troublesome than pissing off a cat?That is to piss off a young cat-turned-human lady.

And now, Merlin, who had pissed off the young lady, was responsible for coaxing her back.

After seeing off the witch, Merlin returned to Harry's office, but the office was empty. According to the location of the glasses Harry was wearing, he walked around the store and found Harry in the locker room.

And Phoebe, sulking against the wall, above a cabinet near the ceiling in the storage room.

Merlin: "..."

Well, I guess it was after hearing that he agreed to the invitation of the witch Millie Center, the angry Phoebe ran out of the office.

Harry, who was standing on the ground, turned around and nodded when he saw Merlin: "Ah, Merlin."

Merlin helplessly wiped the space between his brows: "How did she get up there?"

Harry: "Phoebe's pretty good at jumping on it."

That is, this is not the first time she tried to jump on top of the cabinet after becoming a human, and with the experience of hitting her head last time, it is obvious that Phoebe succeeded this time.

Merlin: "I think you tried to persuade her."

Harry raised his eyebrows: "You really want to date that witch?"

Merlin: "..."

At this time, don't add fuel to the fire!Merlin really doubted that his old friend and colleague did it on purpose.

But Harry didn't intend to wait for Merlin's answer, he glanced at his watch: "It's time for Percival to report the mission."

Merlin: "I'll be there soon."

Let's calm down the girl who is on the brink of explosion first.

Harry smiled imperceptibly when he heard the words, and he glanced at Merlin teasingly: "Okay, let's talk slowly."

Said the current Arthur left the storage room.

Before he left, he didn't forget to close the door, and with a "click", there were only Phoebe and Merlin left in the storage room.

Phoebe, above the cabinet, shuddered at the sound of the door closing.

She hugged her knees, wishing she could curl herself into a small ball—at this moment, Merlin had to be thankful that Phoebe was a petite girl after she turned into a human, otherwise the locker nailed to the wall would have to sit It can't be collapsed.

When cats feel uneasy, they tend to hide in high places, dark places or other places that humans cannot find.Merlin still remembered that the white cat would often haunt the corner of the closet or the roof of the laundry room when he first lived in his apartment, but it seldom did so after it got used to the environment.

Phoebe's doing so proves that she has a serious crisis of trust right now.

This made Merlin feel a little guilty.

"Phoebe," he began, "come down and talk."

"No."

Facing the wall, Phoebe responded sullenly.

"You know that won't solve anything, right?" Merlin asked.

"Humph."

Well, in Phoebe's eyes, Merlin is probably a ruthless, heartless, and insane traitor now.

Merlin was silent for a moment: "Phoebe, you don't want me to date that witch, do you?"

Phoebe: "..."

Merlin: "And you sulking at the wall won't stop me."

The girl sitting on the cabinet straightened her back suddenly.

She was shaken, but Phoebe held back at the last moment.Merlin was not in a hurry: "If you want to stop me, you have to come down and talk to me first."

When these words landed, Phoebe finally turned around.

The girl curled up in the corner of the ceiling was wronged and angry: "You promised her!"

Merlin tried his best not to smile: "You come down first."

Phoebe responded honestly: "I can't get down."

Merlin: "..."

He looked around the cabinet and easily calculated Phoebe's climbing route.

The girl should have jumped up by stepping on the box next to her, but it was a bit difficult to go back the same way.Merlin thought for a while, then simply stretched out his hands: "Jump down."

Phoebe's petite body turned around on the narrow cabinet. Although her movements were deft, Merlin was still terrified.She was sitting on the cabinet, with her slender legs hanging in the air, as if hesitating whether to jump or not.

"Don't worry, girl," Merlin said in a deep voice from below, "I will follow you."

The girl sitting on the cabinet bit her lower lip.

She still jumped down, and Merlin took half a step forward, catching Phoebe with precision, and she crashed directly into the man's arms.

After landing, Phoebe looked up expectantly: "Then, you, you don't date her, okay?"

Merlin said without hesitation, "No."

Phoebe: "......"

It's too much! ! ! !

Phoebe, who was tricked down, was furious, and she angrily tried to push Merlin away.

But now Phoebe wasn't a white cat, and it was easier to catch a little girl than a cat.Merlin held Phoebe's arms firmly, easily trapping the girl in place: "Listen to me, Phoebe."

Phoebe wouldn't listen!

She raised her head suddenly, her eyes suddenly changed.

Merlin was surprised.

The familiar ferocity and wildness resurfaced again, but this time it was not as dramatic as last time.

Phoebe moved extremely quickly.

Even if he is a logistics officer, it doesn't mean that Merlin is a powerless clerk, but Phoebe's reaction is much faster than Merlin's. Before he can react, the girl has already taken steps and jumped up lightly.

Then he bit fiercely on the left side of Merlin's neck.

"Phoebe!"

Merlin gasped in pain.

If the previous Phoebe biting was just for demonstration, this time she really wanted to attack.

But he still didn't let go of her - who knew where the girl would run after letting go?If it were a cat, I'm afraid they would have run out of the house long ago and never came back.

So the man just grabbed the back of Phoebe's head with his backhand and pulled her away forcibly: "Calm down, girl!"

Phoebe let go: "I hate Merlin!!!"

Merlin: "It's useless for you to say that, listen to me, I promised her not for her, but for you."

"Don't listen, don't listen, don't listen!"

"..."

It must be a few girls in the logistics department who recommended the dog blood soap opera to her!Merlin, who thought the situation was serious, suddenly lost his temper when he heard Phoebe's nonsense speech.

Well then, since you won't listen.Merlin simply shut up and let her continue shaking her head.

Phoebe, who didn't cooperate, went crazy for a few seconds, and then realized something was wrong, and she suddenly stopped.

Even Phoebe knows that it's embarrassing to mess around and the other person doesn't do anything.So she blinked and looked at Merlin secretly, just in time to meet the man's calm gaze.

The four eyes met, and Merlin finally said: "Have you had enough trouble? Let's talk about business when we have had enough trouble."

"Humph!"

Phoebe was still huffing, but she finally stopped trying to escape or attack.

"Millicent may have an agenda," Merlin explained. "I've got to make sure of that, Phoebe."

"Don't have a purpose," his words stunned Phoebe, and she even forgot to continue to be angry, a little surprised, "Isn't she for sex?"

"..."

Can you be more tactful, girl.

Merlin opened his mouth, and finally had to speak out to remind: "It's not appropriate to say that."

Phoebe: "Okay."

Although she doesn't seem to accept this statement, the girl's attention is not on the wording at all now: "Then what is she for?"

"I'm worried she has something against you."

"Hey?"

Phoebe was all about her face: she had something up her sleeve, and she couldn't mate with a witch.

Merlin originally wanted to explain, but after thinking about it, this is not something that can be explained in a short while, and we still need to figure out the purpose of the witch.

So Merlin slowed down his tone. He leaned slightly and looked straight into Phoebe's eyes: "I promised her just to gain trust temporarily, and I have no idea about her."

However, this did not convince Phoebe.

The girl was still suspicious, and reluctantly said: "I hate Merlin."

Merlin didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

He waved at Phoebe: "Trust me."

Phoebe moved forward, and she drew closer to him. The man put his hand around the back of the girl's neck, raised his head slightly, and the corner of Merlin's mouth brushed against Phoebe's forehead.

The two missed it like water, it was almost a kiss.Phoebe wasn't content with this kind of polite physical contact, but she still instinctively relaxed as Merlin's breath swept over her.

It worked, and the girl who had been puffed up before was suddenly deflated.

She was still not willing to give in, so Phoebe grabbed Merlin's clothes aggrievedly, hesitated for a long time, and could only choke out one sentence: "Then, then, you can't leave me behind."

"Of course I won't."

"Can't really date her either."

"I promise you, I only collect information."

Merlin replied solemnly, he has never been interested in women who plot evil, okay!

"Can we get out of the locker now, girl?"

After appeasing Phoebe, Merlin walked into the meeting room with the tablet in one hand and his neck in the other.Phoebe was really angry this time, as soon as he touched the tooth marks, the pain was burning. Merlin didn't have time to look in the mirror, but he felt that there must be a scar.

"Arthur, Percival."

Merlin greeted and closed the door with his hands free.

Harry, who was sitting in Arthur's place, didn't look up: "Oh, you and Phoebe have finished dealing with the storage room."

Percival: "Storage room?"

Before the field agents in South America got an answer, Merlin turned his head, and the blue and purple teeth marks on the neckline of the man's cardigan were clearly exposed, which was particularly conspicuous.

Parcival immediately showed disapproval: "She is so young, please don't get too violent, Merlin."

Merlin: "..."

He really didn't bother to clarify such questions now.
