Thank you for the invitation. I am in Terra, just under the stars.

Ni Yan was startled when he suddenly showed a smile similar to that of a certain white-haired girl who revealed herself.

She choked up while eating, and after swallowing, she responded with a dry smile:

"Uh, very, very good?"

Glancing at the greasy food in the lunch box, she felt a little worried.

Could it be that the food is sold too cheaply?

Sure enough, the next second the young man opposite said:

"You should know how expensive food like this is, right? But the person in charge here sells them as if they were free. Does she think the company is doing charity?"

"Um……"

Miss Sakaz responded sheepishly, looking at the unfinished lunch box in her hand and wondering whether to continue eating.

Normally, she could only eat this kind of food once in a while, and it didn't taste that good, but now even the weakest infected people can eat it.

That scarecrow is a very kind and good man...

but……

Her eyes fell on this young man who made her feel very good at first. Looking at his malicious smile, Ni Yan felt a little uncomfortable.

At this time, Zhou Cheng continued:

"Now as long as I go back and report what I saw, the person in charge here will definitely be held accountable by the company."

"Um...please, please don't do that..." After biting her lip and struggling for a while, the Sakaz girl finally spoke, a little weakly.

She was just a temporary worker and had no position to participate in the management of Iron Blood Heavy Industries.But she didn't want to let the scarecrow be punished when she saw that the man was good and took care of her.

Zhou Cheng laughed again, then his expression quickly became cold, and he asked in a very calm voice:

"Oh? Why not do this? I am just performing my job. Do you want me and the company to lie?"

"I... this, that..." Ni Yan was hesitating and speechless. His cute, plump baby face turned red from suppressing it, and he lowered his head in embarrassment.

He couldn't even eat anymore, so he pursed his greasy, plump lips and said aggrievedly after a while:

"...That, I'm sorry."

Zhou Cheng snorted and asked pretending to be puzzled:

"Why are you apologizing? What do you think you did to apologize to me?"

"Ugh..."

Miss Sakaz was really speechless. Holding the lunch box in her hand, she felt like she was on pins and needles, her face and head were burning, and she really wanted to escape from here quickly.

Appreciating the aggrieved look of this tall girl in every sense of the word, Zhou Cheng's smile changed, became warm again, and said:

"You really want to protect Scarecrow, don't you?"

"Hmm... um." Mud Rock made a sound as thin as a mosquito.

I don't know why, but I always feel like this sentence sounds terrible.

She raised her head, glanced at the man timidly, and asked:

"Well, you, what do you want me to do?"

Is it really because of your Origin Stone skills that you were approached by Character to talk about this?

The mudstone has reacted.

She is relatively well-known in the mercenary industry. Firstly, she is powerful, and secondly, she is unwilling to take on the job of killing people.

If you just want to use yourself, then as long as it's not too much, for the scarecrow, it's not impossible.

When she secretly made a decision, Zhou Cheng said:

"It's not what I think, it's what you should do. You can't let me let her go for no reason, right?"

"Well, yes." She replied immediately.

I felt settled and calmed down a lot. It was just a commission with no money.

Just as she was thinking this, the other person's words in the next second made her whole body freeze.

"Very well, as long as you understand, let me tell you the truth - I want you.

"You don't want Scarecrow to lose his job, do you?"

Mu Yan was stunned on the spot. Such impactful words and the smiling eyes of the other party made her brain turn into a mess.

Want, I...?

This, could it be said, means...!

She opened her mouth slightly and began to think about another possibility.

What if we say, knock this person unconscious and arrest him?

As if he had read through her thoughts, the young man continued:

"As long as you nod, I will help the scarecrow hide it from the higher ups. Otherwise, even if I am gone, there will be another person who comes to investigate."

"This, is that so...?"

Mud Rock looked around helplessly, but this was the most remote corner, and no one noticed what was happening here.

She looked at the infected people who were eating happily in the distance, and then thought of her joy when eating the food. If the scarecrow was punished, wouldn't it be gone in the future?

Not only for the scarecrow, but also for these compatriots who can have enough to eat...

After a moment of silence, Ni Yan suddenly looked straight at him and said firmly and calmly:

"...I will."

"very good."

Seeing the expression on Miss Sakaz's face, Zhou Cheng almost laughed out loud.

He stood up and said:

"From today on, you are my personal guard."

"Ah, um...huh?!"

Mu Yan had a look of astonishment on his face, looking up at the man blocking the sun.

He still looked at himself with a smile and asked:

"You don't think it's that kind of thing, do you?"

"Well……"

Seeing his kind expression, Ni Yan breathed a sigh of relief despite being embarrassed.

Wasn't it?

Although I thought so, I felt a little bit disappointed.

Putting aside the stereotypes about scarecrows, he is actually quite good-looking.

PS: Good morning, it’s getting late as I sleep.

147. Franca will talk about it later.

"Father!"

"Well, be good, be good~"

"Well……"

In the reception room of the Iron Blood Heavy Industry Branch,

Watching the girl with black hair and twin tails throw herself into the young man's arms, nuzzling him like a cat.He raised his hand and stroked her head with a smile, and Mud Yan stopped thinking.

This scene of loving father and daughter made the Sakaz girl completely confused.

Didn’t you say you were here for inspection?

Even if the inspection was a lie, why did he become the father of the scarecrow! ?

Doesn't this mean that it is a lie from beginning to end?

Feeling the resentful look from a certain older girl, Zhou Cheng smiled and said nothing, and then parted ways after touching the straw for a while.

Looking at Mud Rock who put on his helmet again, he said:

“Not the biological father, but the biological parents.

"Please introduce yourself, my name is Zhou Cheng, the rest is not very important, but I think having an identity should make you pay more attention to it?

"A large part of the ore disease inhibitor technology you use comes from me."

"I know, I will do my best to protect you."

A thin, thick voice came from under the helmet, and her voice was no longer as clear as the big girl's before.

Then he said very resentfully:

"After all, I have already promised you."

Zhou Cheng waved his hand and said:

"Looking at the bright side, it's better to join the Iron-Blooded Heavy Industry than to wander around in this land, isn't it?"

"……Ugh."

Mud Rock sighed slightly.

That's what I said, but when I thought about being tricked into it, I always felt something wasn't right.

At this time, the door of the reception room was pushed open, and a figure walked in carelessly, raising his hand and saying hello:

"Zhou Cheng, it's so boring here, why don't you come and accompany me... hmm?"

The person coming was W. While she was talking, she saw the big man next to Zhou Cheng and tilted her head slightly.

Zhou Cheng introduced her:

"Mudrock, my newly recruited personal guard."

"Uh, do you need that kind of thing? It seems that I just asked this question a few days ago..."

W looked back and forth between the two of them with a strange expression.

But I soon felt relieved,

Being so big, he didn't seem to be as threatening as the two bodyguards who worked strictly.

She must not be a pretty girl, right?

It's even more impossible to be Sakaz, who has white hair like himself, right?

It's absolutely impossible for her to be a royal sister who can crush her in all directions like Sister Shining, right?

Zhou Cheng suddenly had a vision of the white-haired girl dressed in black carrying a flag like the old stage general on her back.

He raised his eyebrows slightly and said:

"It's not a need. There is a personal guard or something like that between Tracys and Theresia. Why can't I have one?"

In terms of practicality, too many things are unnecessary.

Many of the things he did were just cosmetic projects that looked good on the surface. That’s not to say they were completely useless, but they were just too low cost-effective.

"It doesn't sound like there's anything wrong."

W shrugged slightly, walked up to him, took his arm, and said with a smile:

"Well, forget about that. Come and accompany me. I want to go around the city. I haven't been to the southern city yet."

Her tone was coquettish, not so coquettish, but a bit tough, but her face and body were so close to each other that the raging waves rolled her arms into it.

Zhou Cheng didn't resist and let her pull him away.

Seeing the white-haired girl who had just come in dragging his boss away, Ni Yan raised his hand and wanted to shout to stop, but the boss didn't speak and put it down again.

"boom--"

The door was kicked shut by the carefree woman.

She turned to look at the scarecrow who didn't pay much attention after being touched, and asked:
