I am Lapland’s rat!

After all, Tremont is too big. This dream city is more than ten times the size of Onnor. The Western District that Wu Xian spent almost half a month running through is only a few tenths of the size of the entire city. one.

Ya Jue did not find Wu Xian again, and the bored Wu Xian had no interest in making friends with Shushu on the roadside. He basically spent his days in emptiness with Texas, who stayed at home most of the time.

Texas was going to wait until Lapland opened the company and then work with Lapland anonymously. At this time, she really had no tasks.

During this period, Lapland went out early and came back late, and the company's registration progressed rapidly.

According to Lapland, Swanov agreed to Sofia's request, invited the relevant government officials responsible for the application and approval of dangerous licenses to have a meal, and acted as a middleman to give the benefits prepared by Lapland to the two. an official.

As a result, the process of registering a company in Lapland was naturally given the green light. In just three days, the application for both licenses had reached the final background check stage.

Other preparations for registering the company were already in place. Lapland hired a lawyer from a well-reputed firm to handle the necessary legal procedures and tax declarations for the new company.

However, Wu Xian always felt that Lapland was not in a good mood recently.

With such worries, Wu Xian did not go to the road again one day, but followed Lapland out the door.

"……This is?"

In the coffee shop, Swanov, who had a strong body and looked quite fat-headed, pointed at Wu Xian on the table in confusion.

Lapland raised the corners of his mouth and showed a polite but cold smile: "This is my pet. It must come with me."

"I see. It's quite cute. Hello, Xiaoyin." Swanov gave Wu Xian a slightly disgusting smile.

Wu Xian noticed that when Swanov was talking to him, his eyes were not pointed at his at all, and it was obvious that he did not take Wu Xian seriously at all.

Then, Swanov didn't care whether Wu Xian understood or not, he smiled at Lapland and said, "Miss Lapland, have you thought about it? Mr. Rackley from the city hall also said, you There were some problems with the background check, mainly because the question about the school you graduated from was unclear, and they suspected that you had a bad record in Syracuse."

"If it goes on like this..."

Lapland frowned and said, "What should I do?"

Swanov smiled calmly and said: "The night after tomorrow, there is a social dance. I wonder if I have the honor to participate with you? Miss Lapland has such an appearance. As long as she is active in the social circle, I believe that Rackley will Sir, you can understand that you are not that kind of person."

As he spoke, the Ursus man took out a white invitation letter from his lapel.

what.

When Wu Xian saw this scene, he instantly knew why Lapland was unhappy.

He rushed over in an instant, took the invitation away, and then, amid Swanov's exclamations and unconscious curses, he quickly tore it into pieces and threw it into the trash can outside the cafe.

Chapter 13 Helpless

……

In the end, the meeting between Swanov and Lapland ended on bad terms because of Wu Xian's behavior.

Even so, Wu Xian, who was standing outside the cafe waiting for Lapland to leave, still heard Swanov's persistent invitation to Lapland:

"...Miss Lapland, please think about it more."

……

After returning home this morning, Lapland sat on the sofa.

Texas walked out of the room and listened to Lapland telling what happened today.

Wu Xian squatted on the coffee table and listened to their conversation.

In the living room, Texas also seemed a little helpless: "Is this what Swanov wants?"

Now Lapland has successfully completed many procedures for registering the company with the help of Swanov. If he gets stuck here because he failed the background check, according to the laws of this state, I am afraid there will be no solution within a few months. Apply for those two permits again.

It was precisely because of this that Swanov suddenly made his request at this time.

Maybe he was really interested in Lapland, or maybe he wanted to put forward other conditions at the ball to blackmail Lapland.

Lapland chuckled sarcastically: "He has to ask for something. After all, Swanov kindly helped us complete the process that took more than a month in three days!"

Texas' face calmed down and he analyzed: "Svanov is my second uncle's man after all. Even if he agrees to Sophia, he will definitely have to do something with your security company to prevent us from being with him in the family. Internal competition.”

"Now it seems that he really chose to use the background check to do something when we were stuck in a difficult situation after going through the process."

“Didn’t we anticipate this and prepare accordingly?”

"I know, I know, dear Texas." Lapland lowered his eyes and said, "I was just thinking about one thing."

"——No." Texas already knew what Lapland was thinking, she raised her eyebrows and said bluntly.

"Lapland, this is not Syracuse."

"Is there any difference between this place and Syracuse?" Lapland spread his hands and chuckled.

There was a bit of dissatisfaction in the white wolf's eyes, and it was obvious that Swanov's rude request really angered her.

Texas stared at Lapland with a cold face and said: "If you plan to kill Swanov now, you will be convicted of first-degree murder. According to southern state law, you will be sentenced to 25 years." The above penalties range from fixed-term imprisonment to life imprisonment!”

"If you intend to kidnap and threaten him, you will be convicted of kidnapping, which is a relatively minor charge, but you will also be sentenced to a prison term of not less than three years but not more than eight years."

"Don't underestimate Colombia's law enforcement power. You can kill people, but you must wait until we have the power to kill people within the rules."

Texas' eyes were serious, because she knew that if she didn't speak clearly, she might see the head of the Ursus who angered Lapland tomorrow.

"——Okay, okay, Texas, you scared me. I was just kidding." Lapland raised his hand and laughed.

"I have written down the contact information of those officials. According to the method we discussed before, when Swanov takes action, we will bypass him and directly bribe the adults above, right?"

"Yes." Texas' expression softened slightly.

"Let's go this afternoon, Sofia will help us too."

At this time, Wu Xian jumped from the coffee table to the ground, and then slowly walked to the window.

Lapland noticed Wu Xian's movements and said, "Xiao Yin, aren't you happy?"

Wu Xian didn't reply. He jumped up to the edge of the window and then jumped out of the window.

……

……

The place where Lapland and Texas live is in the Garden District southeast of downtown Tremont, and the location where Lapland is going to open his company is the same as Swanov's company, both in Anderjan in the east. district.

After Wu Xian jumped down the street as a mouse, he wandered aimlessly on the street.

Among the pedestrians walking up and down the street, some were dressed particularly fancyly. The boys wore bright short coats that almost reached their ribs, while the girls wore heavy smoky makeup, and there was always some black on their exposed skin. tattoo.

This is also not seen in Syracuse.

He sighed.

Wu Xian knew that after Lapland came to Colombia, he would have to go through a process of adapting to the environment.

Wu Xian also understood that the current difficulties were nothing to Lapland, who had already experienced a lot.

Moreover, Swanov's invitation to Lapland may also be part of a trial game between these smart people.

But when Wu Xian saw with his own eyes that the process of registering a company in Lapland was easily blocked by Swanov, he still felt very unhappy.

"Zhushu, my Lapland drew his sword and faced the head of one of the twelve families of Gray Hall in Syracuse! He is the boss of the entire country who is less than one person and more than ten thousand people!"

"Why should I be coerced by a fat pig like you to attend some social dance when I get to Colombia?"

Unhappy, in short, very unhappy.

And there is no way to express this unhappiness to Lapland, because Lapland is really focusing on entering the upper class game. Wu Xian knows that he is not very smart, and he is just giving Lapland advice. Smart people like Rand add to the burden.

Therefore, he basically did not go out with Lapland to meet various people these days. The fact that he tore up the invitation letter this morning was just a little capricious act by Wu Xian based on his identity as a rat.

"ah!"

"——Damn the mole beast!"

A girl's scream rang in his ears, and then a black shoe sole hit Wu Xian. Wu Xian quickly jumped up and avoided the pedestrian's attack.

"...Well, although the country is different, Shushu's situation is the same."

Under the noon sun, Wu Xian sighed helplessly, ran up the high wall directly along the wall, and jumped over the awning of the roadside merchant and ran away, attracting the pair who were about to trample Wu Xian to death. The young couple exclaimed and were stunned.

Wu Xian ran for a distance above the awning, and he didn't know where he ran. In short, the flow of people on the surrounding streets became less.

So Wu Xian jumped down from the awning again, walked along the wall around a corner, and entered a small alley.

——Then, he came face to face with a bright yellow duck paw.

Looking up along the duck's paw, you can see a round belly covered with smooth feathers, a small suit and shirt, and a silver suitcase carried by its wings.

"Hey, young man." Duck Lord, who was wearing a small round hat, lowered his head and said in his weird and funny accent:

"Have you had lunch? If not, do you want to eat with me?"

Chapter 14 Lunch Invitation

Of course Wu Xian is very happy.

I wonder which rat would hate Qiafan?

So Yajue waved his wings and motioned for Wu Xian to follow. When they walked out of the alley, Gopnik had already parked beside the road in a luxurious extended business sedan.

The way Gopnik struggled to squeeze his huge body into the driver's seat made Wu Xian think of Alf for a moment.

Yajue opened the door and got in, and then Wu Xian jumped into the car. Gopnik started the car without saying a word.

Wu Xian thought that Duck Lord was really going to take him to the Casimir Chamber of Commerce or the Palace Tower in Leitania. However, the car only drove for about ten minutes and stopped at another place in Tremont. Come down.

This disappointed Wu Xian, who was looking forward to seeing Ya Jue's travel methods.

It seemed that Lord Duck just wanted to treat him to a meal in Tremont today.

But this works too.

"Shushu, I haven't eaten local specialties once since I came to Colombia!"

……

When Wu Xian followed Ya Jue upstairs and entered a box decorated with a very black and luxurious feel, he found that a stranger was already waiting in the box.

This surprised Wu Xian, who thought he and Ya Jue would be dining together today.

It was a male Pero with gray hair. His small pointed gray ears moved from time to time on the top of his head, and the corners of his hair gradually turned white.

This Pero guy has a well-coordinated figure, neither too tall nor too short. There is only some stubble on his chin, which makes it impossible to judge his age. It is okay to say he is in his 40s, and it is not unacceptable to say he is in his 20s. .

When Wu Xian followed Ya Jue's feet into the box, the Pero man showed a hearty smile and waved towards Ya Jue:

"Lord Duck, long time no see. After coming to Tremont for so many days, you are finally willing to come and have a meal with me."

"Quinn, the time of successful people is always precious. Only losers will spend the time they use to improve their social status on meaningless social interactions."

Duck Lord was still speaking in his weird accent. He threw the silver suitcase casually at the door, then strode to the rectangular dining table in the center of the box, and sat down carelessly on the only seat of honor.

Quinn smiled and answered Yajue in a way that was beyond Wu Xian's expectations: "You are right, so I feel like I am a loser."

"Tsk." Hearing Quinn's usual answer, Duck Lord smacked his lips in dissatisfaction and did not continue to instill his theory of success.

Wu Xian was a little surprised: "I am super, there is such a way to interrupt the casting of spells?"

Talent.

So Wu Xian quickly walked a few steps, jumped on the long table, and took a closer look at the master who successfully defeated Chenggong Xue with his smashing skills.

The gray-haired Perot was dressed reasonably well, but nothing special. He looked similar to many people on the street.

To be honest, he doesn't look like an upper-class person who can go to a high-end restaurant with Ya Jue.

Only then did Quinn, who was sitting at the table, notice Wu Xian. His expression suddenly looked strange: "Duck Lord, is this your pet? I've never heard of you having such a hobby."

"No, no, no." Duck Lord raised his wings and shook them, and said, "This is my new friend, Mr. Little Silver. However, for my sake, you can also call him 'Rat Lord' '."

Wu Xian: "?"

Why do you still randomly give people substitution numbers?

Wu Xian couldn't help but look at Ya Jue with contempt, but he didn't expect Ya Jue to really change his mind: "Well, young man, don't you like the tasteful codenames given to you by successful people? Then 'Rat King' or 'Rat King' How about it? Let me make it clear in advance that I don't like 'Rat King' because it reminds me of that smelly penguin."

"I like the name Lapland gave me to Shushu." Wu Xian shook his beard and wrote on the table with his paws to express his dissatisfaction.

"Okay, let's call it Xiao Yin." Duck Jue compromised, "Successful people always have their own unique opinions. It is their characteristics that make them stand out from the mediocre."

At this time, Quinn on the side was so surprised that his eyebrows were raised.

This was the first time he had seen his beast owner friend be so tolerant of another person!
