"Sorry, I overreacted just now."
"It's okay...???) Does Sister Huijie miss Tarua?" After hearing Chen's apology, Grace shook her head indifferently at first, and then asked the question she was curious about.
"..."
Facing Grayshu's sudden "straight shot", Chen, who had finally recovered from the fact that it was [Tallulah] who asked someone to look for him, was silenced again...
Recalling the distant, almost vague memories of her childhood, a complex expression could not help but appear on her face...
Do you miss her? Do you miss your sister?
Chen Huijie felt that she did miss it, especially when she inexplicably returned to the mansion she didn't want to go back to and dug out the old photo, she felt particularly nostalgic and... unwilling.
"...What did she ask you to bring me?" After thinking about a series of things, Chen chose to avoid the question and changed the subject with a somewhat unnatural look.
She hadn't confirmed the truth of the whole thing yet, so she didn't want to reveal too much information or emotions. Not to mention, her pride wouldn't allow her to lose her composure in front of such a young child. Well... the previous farce didn't count!
"Well, this...here."
As she spoke, Grayxiu put her hands behind her back, then took out a letter from the space and handed it to Chen.
Of course, Tallulah must have given more than one letter to the little girl. However, she had told her several times to give the last letter to Chen first before giving the others.
As for what was inside, although Grace had not read it, she guessed that it should be a "letter of introduction" or something like that to prove that there was no problem with her origin and her own specialness.
"..."
Chen didn't think much about it when he saw Grace taking out the envelope from behind and handing it to him like a magic trick. He just took it in silence.
Just as Officer Chen was about to open this "special envelope", Grace, who was sitting on the chair, suddenly spoke again: "This letter is the first one that Tarua asked me to give you... She said that she would give you the rest after you finish reading it."
"……besides?"
Hearing this, Chen, who was carefully opening the envelope, suddenly trembled, and then asked in a surprised tone. Obviously, she had never expected that there would be more than one "letter from her sister" that came out of nowhere...
"Well, because Tarua missed Sister Huijie so much. She wrote so many letters to you, but never sent them out. I brought them all here this time!"
After hearing what Chen said, Grayshut nodded her head heavily, and with a very serious expression, she helped Tallulah express her longing for him.
"...Huh, Gray, are you thirsty?"
Hearing this, Chen was silent again for a moment, then he exhaled, calmed himself down, and asked a question that had nothing to do with the current situation.
But although he was asking, in fact, when he said this, Chen temporarily put away the envelope and went to pour water for Grayxiu.
"???)?"
Although Grace was a little confused about Chen's sudden action, she still sat there obediently and watched his movements.
"Here, drink some water." Chen quickly put the warm water on the table next to Grace, and then continued: "Please give me some time and allow me to leave for a while."
"If you feel bored later, you can call Shi Huaiya and the others to accompany you, but you can
Could you please keep the matter about Tallulah a secret from them for now?"
"Well, I can help keep it a secret... As for your excuse, Sister Huijie, please stay here and watch. I will go out and look for Sister Huaiya and the others."
Having said that, without giving Chen a chance to say anything else, Grace picked up the cup of warm water beside her and walked towards the office door with small steps.
After all, the little girl is not stupid. How could she not see that Chen wanted to comfort herself and then run to find a "reading" environment where no one was around? In that case, why would she need to run around? It would be better for her to go out directly to save trouble.
And if she goes out now, Grayshu can take the opportunity to find Xingxiong to stick to her and get her color!
Then, after Xingxiong has finished pasting, come back and paste Chen Huijie hard. The little Loli's exclusive mission this time is completed, and you can immediately unlock the Gray Xiu Plus version!
"..."
Watching Gray Xiu leave quickly without giving Chen a chance to say anything, Chen's eyes flashed with helplessness. After keeping this little thing in mind, he took out the envelope again with a nervous and excited mood...
------------------
"boom……"
The sound of the office door opening and closing attracted the attention of three people standing in the corridor.
"Grayshudder, why did you come out? Didn't that guy Chen drive you out?" After seeing clearly who came out this time, Shi Huaiya raised her eyebrows slightly and said with a surprised expression.
To be honest, before she looked over, she thought it would be Chen who came out this time. And not only her, the other two people thought the same thing.
"I wanted to come out on my own... I thought Sister Huijie might need some private space." Hearing this, Grayshu, who was walking over there, shook her head and explained.
"Private space, okay then." Shi Huaiya nodded slightly, and then seemed to remember something, lowered her voice and curiously said to Gray:
"Speaking of which, Grayshuu, what did you bring to Old Chen? And the name Tallulah...if I remember correctly, it should be what I was thinking of."
To be honest, when they heard the name Tallulah in the video, not only Chen was shocked, but Shi Huaiya and Lin Yuxia also felt more or less surprised.
Because, in their childhood memories, there was also a person named Tallulah... But so far, none of them knew why that childhood playmate suddenly left Longmen...
"Oh, before I left the office, I promised Sister Huijie that I would keep Tarua's affairs a secret for the time being, so I can't tell you." Grace thought about the agreement just made in the office, and then "cruelly" rejected Shi Huaiya's gossip request.
"hateful……"
ps: I ended up writing until 2 o'clock. Tomorrow will be another sleepy day. Ah, I don't want to go back to my hometown to visit relatives at all...
Chapter 75: "Arrogant" and "Bad-tempered" Tallulah
"hateful……"
"Hmm..." Looking at Shi Huaiya who seemed a little unhappy because her curiosity was not satisfied, Grace blinked her beautiful eyes gently and changed the subject:
"Does Sister Huaiya also know Tarua?"
"Well, if the Tallulah you mentioned is the one I think of, then I do know her. And it's not just me..." Shi Huaiya paused here, then turned her head to look at Lin Yuxia behind her and continued: "Lin Yuxia also knows Tallulah."
"We played together when we were kids, but that was a long time ago. We haven't seen her in many years."
After Shi Huaiya finished speaking, Lin Yuxia, who had been listening quietly, continued to add:
"It's like this. Back then, Tallulah suddenly and inexplicably left Longmen without our knowledge. Since then, the three of us have never seen her again."
"And if I remember correctly, I remember Chen Huijie looked for Tallulah for a long time after that."
"Um……"
After listening to the two people's explanation, Gray Xiu nodded gently, and a hint of understanding flashed in her violet eyes.
The fact is the same as what the little girl thought. Shi Huaiya and Lin Yuxia really didn't know the real reason why Tallulah "left" Longmen at that time.
Even Chen Huijie, her biological sister, probably only knew that her sister was taken away, but she probably didn't know the details...
After all, if she really knew, then Chen Huijie would not be as "gentle" towards her uncle Wei Yanwu as she is now.
"Come to think of it, Grayshus, why do you call Tallulah Tal...rua?" Looking at Grayshus who was nodding obediently in front of her, Lin Yuxia seemed to have thought of something and asked with a strange expression.
To be honest, if the little girl had not used the nickname Talula in front of her at the beginning, but called her Talula directly, she would have recognized who the person was asking for help.
There is no need to wait until we get to the Guard Bureau to find out who the "irresponsible" client is.
“???) Um… because I want to?”
Hearing this, Gray Xiu touched her chin and thought for a moment before speaking in an uncertain tone.
Lin Yuxia's question really stumped the little girl.
It’s not that there is any secret in this name, it’s mainly because she can’t chat with people in this world about the jokes (nicknames) of another world.
And don’t laugh at me, big brother. If Grayshu remembers correctly, the people present more or less have some names or nicknames similar to Tarua…
"This name is quite...special, and Tallulah actually agreed to let you call her that." Upon hearing this, Shi Huaiya couldn't help but touch Grayshu's furry little head, then she withdrew her hands, crossed her arms and started to complain.
In fact, it’s not the little tiger’s fault that she wanted to complain. It’s mainly because she didn’t expect that the arrogant and bad-tempered guy in her memory would actually accept the name of Tarua from a child, which sounds very... cute.
"Well, why would you disagree???)?"
After listening to Shi Huaiya's complaints, Grayxiu raised her head curiously and asked.
Facing Grayshu's question, Shi Huaiya crossed her arms and answered subconsciously, "Why would that arrogant and bad-tempered guy agree..."
Before she could finish her words, her voice became smaller and smaller, until it was finally lost in the eye contact with the little Lolita.
"Hmm... I think I know why Tallulah agreed."
"???)?"
Hearing this, Grayshu, who had been quietly waiting for Shi Huaiya's answer and wanted to know more about Tarua's childhood, had a big question mark appear on her little head.
What just happened? How did you suddenly come to this conclusion?
"Of course it's because little Grayshus you are so cute. From this point of view, it's possible that guy would compromise!" Looking at Grayshus's cute and puzzled look, Shi Huaiya couldn't help but curled the corners of her lips, and then said with a smile.
"After all, even though she's domineering and bad-tempered, she'll stand in front of us when things get tough. It's understandable that she would compromise with a name just because of a child's cuteness."
"???)..."
After hearing what Shi Huaiya said, although Grace had never seen and could not imagine what the domineering and bad-tempered Tallulah looked like, she had to admit that someone was close to the truth.
The name Talula was retained because Talula was very worried about Alina at the beginning and did not correct her. In addition, when she realized and wanted to correct her later, the little girl got away with it time and time again.
"By the way, isn't Sister Huaiya going to continue working? If I disturb you, I'll be alone for a while..."
Suddenly, as if she remembered something, Grayshu said hurriedly while holding a water cup in her arms.
Others may not know, but the little girl knows the daily workload of these senior police officers. If possible, she does not want to affect their normal work because of her own reasons. Although it seems that it may have affected them a little bit...
"It's okay, little sister. Shi Huaiya and I have finished talking about what we wanted to talk about. It's almost noon now, so it's okay to take a break for a while."
This time, it was not Shi Huaiya who answered Grace's question, but Xingxiong who had been standing quietly by and listening.
Because she had not known Chen Huijie and the others since childhood, and did not know who Tallulah was, she did not join the conversation from the beginning.
"Well, is that so... Then I'll treat you sisters to lunch at noon, do you want to come?" Hearing this, Grace noticed that it was already late. She lowered her eyes slightly to think for a moment, then suddenly spoke.
When Grayxiu said this, she did not receive any approval from the crowd. Instead, she received three puzzled and helpless looks.
"Let's not talk about the fact that it's not up to you, Gray Xiu, to treat us. Besides, the most important task right now should be to send you back." Having said this, Shi Huaiya paused for a moment, then turned her head to look at the tightly closed office door before continuing:
"By the way, what on earth is this guy Chen doing in there? I'm in a hurry to help Gray Xiu find the address."
"Old Chen doesn't seem like the kind of person who would 'waste time' in the office. So let me guess, he must have been reading letters or something like that for such a long time, right?" Xing Xiong looked thoughtfully at the only person present who knew the answer, and said.
Chapter 76 Chen Huijie: "So, love can be transferred, right?"
"Well... Sister Xingxiong is very powerful." After noticing the look Xingxiong was looking at her, Grayshu nodded slightly, giving an implicit confirmation.
This doesn't count as her breaking the agreement, after all, the situation was guessed by others themselves.
"Haha, these are just some normal guesses. They're not that impressive." After being praised by the cute little kid, Xingxiong scratched his head a little embarrassedly.
"No, Sister Xingxiong is just amazing, and the colors are beautiful too." Hearing this, Grayshu shook her little head slightly and said seriously.
"So, can I use your colors to draw a picture for you, sister?"
"This... I don't care. As long as you don't think it's a waste of time, you can do whatever you want." As he said that, Xingxiong took two steps forward, hesitantly stretched out his hand and touched Grayshu's little head soothingly.
Although she didn't think her character or "color" was good, since the child wanted to do so, she didn't care.
After all, it's just a painting. Whether it's good or not doesn't matter to Xingxiong.
They were all gifts for a cute child, so there was no difference. But in this case, she had to think about what kind of return gift to prepare.
"……???)!"
Grayshu has never been disgusted or resistant to being touched on the head by others, but this time, the moment Xingxiong's hand touched her head, she was stunned, and even the look in her eyes became strange.
Because just now, a long-lost voice sounded in her mind again, severely irritating her nerves.
[Ding, Raiden Mei is being unlocked, current progress is 1%]
"What... aren't you used to it? Sorry, I was presumptuous." Seeing Grayshu who was suddenly staring at him because of his touch, Xingxiong quickly withdrew his hand and apologized.
Obviously, she attributed all the "abnormality" of the little guy in front of her to the fact that he was not used to her touching and patting his head.
"Well, it's not that I'm not used to it! I just suddenly feel that you, Sister Xingxiong, have become a little sparkling..." Looking at the hand that was removed from her little head, a trace of regret flashed in Grayshu's eyes, and then she hurriedly explained.
After explaining, the little girl did not forget to look at Xingxiong with her beautiful eyes that seemed to be shining with stars.
"Sparkling?"
Hearing this, Xingxiong subconsciously lowered her head to observe her outfit, but after looking around, she didn't find anything wrong with it. Instead, as time went by, she felt a little embarrassed by Gray's starry eyes.
"OK……"
Grayshu nodded seriously, then took two steps forward to Xingxiong, stretched out her hands and gently embraced her, allowing herself to immerse herself in the color that filled her with a sense of security.
Although the color of the star bear does not make the little girl feel as heavy as mudstone, it still gives people a sense of security.
At the same time, the unlocking that had just stopped due to disconnection was connected again.
