"I'm sorry to have delayed you for a long time today. It's already very late. I'll take a taxi to take you home." Shi Huaiya, who had finished her midnight snack and was completely off work, glanced at the time and said to Pado, who had left the Guards building with her.

"No, there's no need to go through so much trouble. I can go back by myself." Hearing this, Pado on the side quickly shook his head and said.

If it was someone else, even another superintendent or police officer who wanted to take her home, Padu might still consider it because she wanted to be lazy, but if this person was Shi Huaiya... she wouldn't need to think at all and would just say no!

After all, in addition to being a senior superintendent of the Imperial Guard Bureau, Shi Huaiya was also the "sheep" that she had been fleecing! If possible, Maomao didn't want to have any more contact with her.

The more she talks, the more mistakes she makes. She might accidentally reveal her true identity... Then the second task will be difficult to complete, as she is still waiting for her sister Eden to come out and give her a sparkling gem.

"Is it really not necessary?"

"Well, don't worry, it's okay. Even if I meet bad guys, I can definitely escape!" Looking at Shi Huaiya who was a little worried, Paduo patted his chest confidently and said.

"Meow!"

"Well, be safe on the road."

Seeing that Paduo was so persistent, Shi Huaiya did not force it.

After all, she could see from what happened tonight that the person in front of her had some strength, and if he encountered danger, even if he couldn't defeat him, he should be able to run away.

"Well, by the way, there is one thing I want to ask you." Hearing this, Padu nodded first, then seemed to remember something, and asked seriously with a rare look:

"Shi Huaiya, can you tell me about the injuries in this incident tonight?"

Hearing that Padu suddenly talked about serious matters, Shi Huaiya slowly put away the smile on her face and answered seriously:

"Well... Under normal circumstances, according to the rules and regulations of the Imperial Guard Bureau, I cannot tell you until the case has a result. However, since you, Paduo, are the one who bravely performed this act, I can reveal a little to you."

"There are many injured in this incident, including two seriously injured, but... no one has died so far. And we have to thank you for subduing the criminals in time."

"Don't thank me. Even if I didn't do anything, your police officers would have arrived. And if I had known that the record would be taken so late, I should have run away after knocking the man unconscious."

As she spoke, Paduo couldn't help but shake the long tail behind her, and then she looked at Shi Huaiya beside her with resentment.

"Ahem... Tonight's matter was quite big and troublesome to deal with, so it took me quite some time to take notes. Please forgive me." Facing Pado's resentful look, Shi Huaiya shifted her gaze slightly and couldn't help but coughing twice.

Being suddenly interrupted by Maomao, the complex and depressed emotions that had resurfaced in Shi Huaiya's heart due to the mention of the tragic incident tonight were quietly eased and dissipated a lot.

"Oh, I almost forgot. Let's save the contact information or add each other as friends so that we can contact each other if there is anything later."

"what……!"

Hearing this, Padu, who was yawning and planning to say goodbye and leave, was suddenly startled and almost couldn't close her mouth.

Chapter 19 Earrings and Doubts

"..."

It was quiet and everyone was sleeping soundly.

At night, Pado was sitting on the roof of the low-rise building where she was staying, staring at the new contacts on her mobile phone.

Of course, the reason why the cat was staring at the phone in a daze was not because of a certain little tiger, but because he was thinking about what happened tonight.

To put it simply, what happened tonight was an assault. In a sense, the incident itself was not a big deal, because no one died, but it was not a small matter, after all, many innocent people were injured.

Under normal circumstances, if an attack like this were reported and spread, it would at most cause people to be outraged, sigh and feel relieved, and then demand severe punishment.

The premise of the above situations is that the perpetrator is an ordinary person, but what will happen if the perpetrator is revealed to be an infected person?

At this moment, Pado could fully imagine what kind of public opinion shock and a series of subsequent impacts this incident would cause in the city.

Of course, everything that followed had little to do with Maomao, and she had no means or skills to reverse the situation.

However, this did not prevent her from thinking a little about the subsequent development of this incident and speculation tonight.

"..."

Suddenly, whether she figured it out or not, Padu, who had been staring at her phone in a daze, slowly raised her head and looked at the starry sky with two full moons, and muttered softly:

"As expected, people should not think too much...thinking too much will make them unhappy."

"But... I still want to do something."

"But, what can I do?"

Paddo rarely worries about this, or rather, she hardly worries about anything at all.

Because she has always been open-minded, and what she cares about most is the present. For her, living one more day means one happier day. If she can have food to fill her stomach and sun to bask in, that would be three times the happiness. She is so happy that she doesn't think too much about it.

Even if tomorrow is the end of the world, to the cat, that is still tomorrow, and she will still be happy today!

But even though she is so open-minded, does not have any big pursuits, and believes that if the sky falls, there will be someone taller to hold it up, Padu still has things she wants to do and small visions.

-------------------

A certain villa with lights on late at night——

"Ah, I'm finally done washing up and can rest now."

Shi Huaiya yawned, rubbed her fluffy hair that she had just blow-dried, and murmured softly.

All the work and operations tonight can be said to have lasted until late at night.

If it wasn't for the fact that Shi Huaiya happened to be on holiday tomorrow, she wouldn't dare to be so careless with her time after she came back, otherwise she would have to go to work with dark circles under her eyes tomorrow morning.

Not only will I be in a bad mood, but I will also be laughed at by some street dragon...

"..."

Just as Shi Huaiya was about to turn off the lights downstairs and go upstairs to her room to rest, she couldn't help but pause slightly when she passed by a table with a tray and decorations.

"Come to think of it, is there an earring I haven't found yet?"

"Forget it, let's talk about it tomorrow."

Shi Huaiya did not dwell too much on the little thing that she suddenly remembered. After turning off the lights, she dragged her tired body upstairs.

-------------------

Because of staying up late the day before, Shi Huaiya did not get up early today as usual. Instead, she indulged herself for the first time in a long time and slept until almost noon.

"Ah~"

Shi Huaiya, who had just woken up, squinted her hazy eyes, yawned, and slowly sat up on the big bed. Then she glanced at the clock in the room and couldn't help but sighed: "I haven't gotten up so late in a long time."

Afterwards, after waking up a little, Shi Huaiya left the room to wash up. Although she was on vacation today, she still had a lot of things to do.

For example, call the cleaning lady to clean, tidy up, and organize various items.

You know, she is still thinking about her missing earring. Although it is not a very valuable item, it is also one of her frequently used items.

Because she was too busy before, she just asked the cleaning lady to help look for it, but she didn't find it in the end. Now that she has time, Shi Huaiya naturally wants to try to look for it again.

Then in addition to dealing with household matters today, Shi Huaiya also plans to go to the Guard Bureau to see if Xingxiong and Pujielong need any help.

If possible, she doesn't mind working overtime.

After all, Shi Huaiya is different from others. Others go to work for money or other reasons, but she really likes this job and is ambitious to make it bigger and stronger, such as becoming the director of the Guards Bureau and then being Pujie Long's boss!

After planning today's time, Shi Huaiya stopped wasting time and quickly carried out the planned arrangements.

……

"It's almost time. Let me tidy up first and look for the earrings." After a quick lunch and cleaning up the dishes, Shi Huaiya began to organize her various little things.

This is a habit she has developed over a long period of time. In order not to cause unnecessary trouble to others, and because she doesn't like others touching her things, she will simply clean up before the aunt comes to clean.

Sort out your things.

……

After spending some time sorting out the things that she didn't want others to touch, Shi Huaiya began to look for her missing jewel earring.

However, no matter how she searched, even moving the table where the earring fell, she could not find the missing earring again.

"That's weird. I clearly remember dropping it here. Could it be that a mouse took it away?"

"Or maybe someone took it away..."

At this point, Shi Huaiya's occupational disease could not help but come back, and she subconsciously began to screen out suspicious people...

However, before she could think about it further, the doorbell of the villa rang first, forcing her to withdraw her thoughts and open the door.

"Good afternoon, Auntie. Thank you for your hard work today."

Shi Huaiya walked into the yard, opened the door, and invited the housekeeper in with a smile.

"Haha, good afternoon, Ms. Shi Huaiya. It's not hard work, it's just part of my job."

Facing the young and polite old employer, the arriving housekeeper chuckled twice and responded.

"Well, let's get ready and start." Hearing this, Shi Huaiya nodded lightly without saying anything more. He closed the gate of the yard and walked towards the house with his men.

ps: I am so sleepy. I have been writing till so late again. I hope everyone is well.

Chapter 20 The result obtained by the cat and the mad tiger cub

While the housekeeper was cleaning, Shi Huaiya was not idle either. She continued to look for her earrings and organize and count her little things.

However, it would have been better if I hadn't counted them. After checking, I found that several of my small items were missing.

If only one or two items were missing, Shi Huaiya could still think that he had lost them accidentally, but the fact that three items were missing at once made him very suspicious.

At least she herself began to suspect that there was a thief in the house...

Moreover, the number of "missing" items is only the number found by Shi Huaiya's simple inventory. It is not ruled out that there are still some missing, but she has not found them yet...

After all, from what it seems so far, the things this "little thief" stole were just small items, even small things that she herself had almost forgotten about.

"..."

Thinking, Shi Huaiya walked out of her room slowly, stood in the corridor on the second floor, and looked at the aunt who was cleaning downstairs with a slightly inquiring look.

It’s not surprising that Shi Huaiya would suspect the housekeeper, because this person is the one who knows the structure and details of the house best besides herself.

You have to know that among the items that the little tiger found "missing", there were many like the earring, which had fallen or been placed in a small corner. An outsider who is not aware of the situation would generally not be able to find them, let alone steal them intentionally.

Of course, even though he has suspicions, Shi Huaiya will not slander or accuse others without evidence.

However, she would definitely investigate this matter thoroughly. After all, she was a senior superintendent of the Guards Bureau! It would be shameful if her house was robbed and she hadn't found out yet!

-----------------

The rooftop of the place full of sunshine——

"Ah~"

After Paduo stretched lazily, she slowly opened her misty eyes in the warm environment.

After returning home last night, Padu was thinking about what she could do, and she couldn't sleep. So in the second half of the night, she simply went out again.

As for what they were going out for, it was of course to deliver supplies while the people who were investigating and besieging them had relaxed a little in the past few days.

In order to prevent herself from not being able to deliver goods for a long time later, Paduo was busy for a long time last night. She only finished the activity at dawn and sneaked back.

"Oh right! I almost forgot."

Pado sat up and yawned continuously. It seemed that she suddenly remembered something and suddenly became much more awake. Then she quietly contacted someone in her heart.

"...Um, Snake Sister!"

"What a rare visitor! Why did Phyllis suddenly think of contacting me? Do you want to provide yourself to me as research material?"

Although he roughly knew why Padu was looking for him through telepathy, Mebius still couldn't help but say it with evil humor.

"No, no, no, forget about this!"

Padu, who was originally about to say something seriously, was blocked by Mebius's malicious words, her face suddenly changed, and she quickly refused.

You know, neither she nor "Padochillis" has any hobbies related to wanting to be studied, otherwise they would not be hiding from Mebius.

"Eh, this is so boring... I thought Phyllis had figured it out and wanted to be my guinea pig~"

"..."

Although what Mebius said sounded like a joke, Padu strangely heard a hint of seriousness in it...

"Ahem, let's not talk about this for now. My mission here is almost complete, and I should be very idle for a long time... If Sister Snake needs anything in her research on mineral disease, I can help you steal... and buy it for free."

Padu coughed twice, quickly ignored Mebius' words, and then told the real "reason" for her contact this time.

To be honest, without intending to intervene in the disputes between the parties, Padu thought about it at night and the best answer he got was to help the people around him as much as possible within his ability, and at the same time try his best to "cooperate".

"Help" Mobius complete the research and development of the antidote for the mineral disease.

"Heh~ There's no shortage of research on mineralogy, but other research is in need of a kitten. Phyllis, are you really not going to consider it?"
