Oh, that's alright...

A good mother often has super powers when facing her children - no matter what the children ate or did secretly, or how uneasy or trying to hide it, she actually knows it all but just doesn't say it out loud.

"It's okay. You promised fried chicken and happy water, but we ordered pizza. What does it matter?"

"...Yeah!" Xiaojie was very happy: "I'll just eat a little! Just a little bit!"

"It's up to you - you lose. Come on, Ajing, you come."

"I can't." Young Master Jing shook his head and raised the tablet in his hand: "I still have to deal with company matters."

Unlike Alia, a small customer service representative, he is the current CEO of the consumer electronics department and has a lot of daily affairs to deal with.

Even if it's a rubber stamp, you have to stamp it yourself!

However, sister Jing, who is very career-oriented, does not have any dissatisfaction. Instead, she is very motivated to do something big.

Alia has no problem with this kind of paper king. When it comes to work, initiative and being forced to support a family are two different things.

The boss forced employees to work overtime without paying them overtime, so Alia cursed on the spot, saying that dog-like things should be hung on lampposts as a beautiful scenery.

If the boss insists on working overtime, Alia will just watch it for fun - you are busy, you are tired, do you want to have two bottles of Red Bull to replenish your energy?

Alia opened a lollipop and watched the CG animation with Xiaojie. The postures of the two guys, one big and one small, were almost exactly the same.

The spacious living room has a bright and warm orange chandelier, a 100-inch projector and anti-glare screen, and comfortable fabric sofas and bean bag sofas.

There is also a cat - but the cat is now taking a nap on the cat climbing frame. It had played with Xiaojie for a long time and was tired. It was taken out for a stroll by Anlele twice, and was bullied by Alia when it came back. Even the cat with the spirit of destroying the house could not stand serving these three sisters for a whole day. Seeing that Young Master Jing also wanted to touch it, it immediately jumped off the cat climbing frame for shelter.

The biggest difference between the house rented by Mr. Jing and that of ordinary workers is not that it is bigger or more luxurious, but that it is more humane.

Nowadays, it is a luxury to have a group of friends in the living room to play games, watch movies and have a good time together...

"Where's Sister Lele?" Xiaojie seemed to remember something: "Has she not finished her bath yet?"

"Taking online classes." Ailia felt a toothache when she talked about this. She shouldn't have signed her up for so many classes.

How could there be a city dragon king with such a strong learning ability? Aren't these guys supposed to have been immersed in fighting and killing in their early years and not be able to do well in cultural studies?

But An Lele is obviously an outlier. Not only is he good at academic subjects, but he is also a real academic master.

The teacher likes students who can understand and apply what they hear the most. In comparison, Jing Ershao, who is a poor student and lazy, is the bad kid who needs to work hard.

Young Master Jing reached out and took a date from the table, took a bite, frowned and looked at the email sent on the tablet: "Sister, the company--"

“Whatever.” Alia interrupted him. “You’re the CEO, you have the final say, don’t keep asking me.”

“…But you have to steer the ship.”

"What the hell - if you need money, come to me and I'll get it. You'll be responsible for spending it. Do you know how to spend money? If you don't, go learn it!"

Alia is really disappointed with this naughty brother. If you don't show your domineering, cool and arrogant aura, you should at least have some ambition!

How can a man live in the world between heaven and earth and live in depression for a long time?

"Okay, so about that..."

"The wind blows up the dust! The clouds turn into rain and fall to the ground—"

Alia's cell phone rang, interrupting Master Jing again.

"That's weird. Shouldn't you have ordered the takeaway with your phone? Did you leave my phone number?"

"No, the takeaway hasn't arrived yet, has it?" Young Master Jing picked up his phone and looked at it: "It shouldn't be takeaway."

"If it's not takeout, then who is it?" Alia answered the phone in confusion: "Hello?"

"Miss... I swear! I swear I didn't lie to her! She called me on her own initiative!"

"...Who are you?"

"I, I'm the yellow-haired guy from before! Your sister ran away from home and found me, but I really didn't dare to look for her. Miss, please forgive me..."

Alia frowned and waved her hand. Xiaojie immediately turned off the projector and took out a recorder and handed it to her.

Young Master Jing was confused: "What's wrong? What happened?"

Alia stood up and walked to the window, looked at the rain outside, and frowned.

"Where are you? Where is my sister? Speak clearly - or I will break your legs!!"

"I said! I said! !"

……

……

Looking at the battery icon displayed on the phone screen, Sister Yu sniffed and put it back in her pocket.

In Tianhai City, where heavy rain was pouring, the steel jungle was shrouded in the heavy rain.

The gray-black sky and colorful neon lights are intertwined, making it particularly cyberpunk.

Of course, there is no villain like Adam Hammer in this city who needs to be blown to pieces a hundred times, and the towering buildings in the distance do not belong to Arasaka.

Sister Yu tightened her coat, but the wet coat and her inner clothes stuck to her body and could not provide any warmth.

so cold...

Sister Yu, with an expressionless face, picked up the small cage in her arms, looked carefully at the motionless little rabbit, and then looked around.

She limped around the corner and hid under the eaves of a convenience store that was temporarily not wet by the rain. She curled up her body and breathed gently into her palms.

Jumping from the second floor of the villa has caused her ankle to ache ever since. Maybe it is a fracture, or maybe it is something more serious. The swelling of her ankle vaguely reminds her that she should go back and stop being willful, because only home is warm.

But now she just wanted to escape from that "warm" home. She even trembled slightly as if she was overexcited when she thought of that magnificent villa.

Scared, helpless, confused...

The thoughts of young people are always light and airy. Sometimes the world is a beautiful pure white, and sometimes it is a gloomy gray and black, and it is hard to see clearly.

Sister Yu's cell phone was out of battery, and she had no money on her. With the last bit of power left, she couldn't even think of who else she could rely on. She could only think of the yellow-haired guy she had 'hired' for a while - unfortunately, the other party hung up the phone as if he was avoiding the plague, and didn't even wait for her to finish where he was.

...Where am I?

Sister Yu looked up at the convenience store sign, stared blankly for a moment, then lowered her head again.

Never mind, it doesn't matter where I am.

Even her running away from home was not a well-thought-out decision. She simply wanted to leave home and stay as far away as possible.

Before, she saw a furniture delivery vehicle delivering goods at night. She jumped down on impulse and climbed onto the truck bed holding the rabbit cage. By the time the truck turned around and entered the city, she had lost her way.

My phone is out of battery... So be it... Maybe I'll freeze to death here, and then -

"Little sister, are you okay?"

An umbrella came over to protect her from the raindrops - even though she was curled up in the corner, she would still be splashed by the flying raindrops, as the rain was too heavy tonight.

"..." Sister Yu looked up at the other person, her eyes filled with wariness and uneasiness, but more of it was stubborn resistance. She pursed her lips and said nothing.

The person holding the umbrella for her was a young girl who looked like she had just got off work. The bag in her hands was full of lunch boxes and beer.

"Well……"

Perhaps she noticed that the child was not very friendly, so the young girl scratched her face and half squatted down: "I have no ill intentions. Where are your family members? If anything happens, I can help you find the police. Don't be afraid, I-Hey! Wait a minute! Wait!"

The young girl didn't expect the child to get up and run, and was almost knocked down. She only had time to grab a corner of the other person's coat while staggering.

But unexpectedly, this action made the little girl even more excited. She twisted her body, threw away her coat, and ran with the cage in her arms. There was a squeak of sudden brakes in the rain, followed by the driver's loud shouting and cursing, which even the sound of heavy rain could not stop - but it seemed that she ran away after all, and there was no car accident.

The young girl was so frightened that she held her coat in her hand and didn't know what to say for a moment.

What is this? Am I that scary?

Just as she was thinking about it, she rolled up her coat and said she would squeeze out the water, and a mobile phone fell out with a plop.

"..." Blinking, the young girl sighed and slumped her shoulders: "What the hell is going on..."

She fiddled with her phone for a while, then resigned herself to her fate and walked back to the convenience store: "Boss, can you charge it? I'll pay—"

"What's wrong? You're so wet?"

"Oh, you don't know, just now outside..."

……

……

"It was thundering outside just now, and I was scared... I didn't know you were coming..."

"You're afraid of thunder. Have you done something wrong, or do you think that only you and I can be called heroes?"

Alia pushed down the yellow-haired man who was pinned on the table by her: "Tell me! Where is my sister!"

"I don't know! I really don't know!!"

"You don't know, right?" Alia took out her phone and started counting down: "If I can't tell when the time is up, my head will move!"

Huangmao began to wail: "Auntie! Auntie, please be kind! I am innocent!"

"Cry! It's also time--"

"I, I'm really innocent! I was working as a fruit waiter just now, and then she called and asked me to pick her up. How could I dare to do that? I said at the time, "Little ancestor, please don't harm me. I'm already working hard to pay back the money. I really don't dare to cheat her of money again. But she said that the problem was not the money, but that she ran away from home, so I asked me to prepare a place for her to stay. I thought that she must have used my ID card when booking a hotel or something before, so she was used to it. After all, she was only 12 years old, and it was inconvenient for her to go anywhere. I thought I could help her, but I was scared, so I hung up the phone with a trembling hand, and then quickly contacted you to turn myself in. But when I called back, her phone was turned off. I'm really innocent - ah ah ah -"

Alia squinted her eyes and stared at the back of his head for two seconds, then loosened her hand and put the beer bottle in her other hand back on the coffee table.

A few cute little ones in the booth huddled in the corner and shivered. Alia glanced at them, and then they shivered even more...

"It's okay, it's just a misunderstanding, you guys continue singing and dancing - you finally finish your work during the day, can't you enjoy yourself at night?"

Alia smoothed her wet hair, combed her loose hair, and kicked her yellow hair: "Get up!"

Huangmao got up tremblingly: "Auntie..."

"Did she tell you where she was?"

"No, no..."

"She just said she ran away from home, nothing else?"

"Just - just let me find her a place to stay, nothing else."

"Hmph, go ask for leave and follow me." Alia looked at her watch and said, "If my sister is free today, I'll give you 10,000 yuan for a part-time job."

"…What if something happens?"

"If you can't speak, just shut up and pretend to be mute!" Alia glared at him unhappily.

"oh oh……"

Alia waited for a few minutes, and Huangmao changed out of his KTV work uniform and carefully followed Alia out of the store.

This area is full of entertainment venues such as singing bars. It is crowded with people and it is still bustling and noisy even in the night shrouded in heavy rain.

The yellow-haired man looked around, curious about what the stage effect would be if this young lady drove over in her luxury car. Then he saw Alia walking towards a shared bicycle and skillfully spun it on the spot and turned a corner.

"...?"

"What are you looking at! Go scan one yourself!"

"Ah, this is - no, miss, you ride a bicycle?"

"has a problem?"

Isn't it faster to ride a bicycle by yourself than to ask someone to drive you? Her footwork is strong enough to make the bicycle spark!

Moreover, the city's streets and alleys are crisscrossed, making it inconvenient to turn around while driving. You might end up in a stupid scene like in TV dramas, where you see your sister on the street, but when you turn the car back, nothing is there, and you can only look around in the vast crowd and shout "No——".

"...No problem, as long as you are happy." The yellow-haired man walked forward, then shrank back: "But this - it's raining so heavily..."

"You also know it's raining so hard, why don't you hurry up?"

"No, it's raining so hard, we'll get soaked if we ride out like this."

"Is my sister more important or is it more important not to get wet in the rain?"

"What if you get sick?"

"So we have to find him quickly! Is it easier for a 12-year-old to get sick or for someone like me who works out every day, wakes up early and goes to bed early, and is at the peak of my physical state at 18 years old? If you keep talking nonsense, I will break your legs right now and send you to the hospital!"

"...So where are we going?"

"Look for her in all the familiar places you usually take her to."

Ailia has asked Young Master Jing to go to Sister Yu's home to check the situation. If the situation is urgent, call the police immediately.

An Lele and Xiao Jie acted as a team. The former was very mobile but had no experience in activities in this city, while the latter was only 8 years old, but his reputation as a world traveler at the East District Children's Palace and his title of 'the only successor to his grandfather's shop' were not for nothing. He had a group of guys who could help him, and they had probably already started to cast a wide net for the search.
