Ke-style law enforcement officers

Chapter 620 Knows Everything
Fear is a shackle imposed on humanity by the gods, and Milo is a creature that feeds on fear. In a sense, he is destined to play the role of liberator, but this is also his original sin.

In the era of the invasion of the Abyss Order, more and more Spirit Visioners will appear in Nanwei City, and even the whole world. Compared with the barren era when Spirit Visioners were scarce, the two are only less than ten years apart.

But there are always some clueless individuals who, no matter how bizarre the events they encounter, never seem to consider that possibility. This person is none other than Enid Kent. In fact, to some extent, she's surrounded by monsters of various levels, from the Old Ones to the Visionaries to the Dark Dwellers. The Abyss Rift hangs on the ceiling of the Enforcement Hall, which sees people coming and going every day. And let's not forget, this woman is a fan of the mysterious and had joined an association long ago, only to be kicked out.

Yet this person, who possesses both exceptionally rich and superior innate and acquired qualities, is remarkably rational in her thinking, or rather, completely immersed in her own narrow world of rationality.

While everyone else was scrambling for the Chaos Stones offered by Dripping Stone, this guy was preoccupied with conspiracy theories.

...

"But her speculation... doesn't seem to have any problems."

This statement was made by Milo himself.

After spending most of the night sneaking around and causing trouble with Enid, Milo finally sent the restless girl back to her old home in Kent, and then went back to his own sofa to lie down like a corpse.

Emma was still sitting on the sofa on the opposite side. She put down the book in her hand and said, "I think it's good. At least Xiao Yi can bring back a bit of humanity for you in a critical moment. Maybe she's the only one."

Earlier, before Enid kicked the door open, Milo and Emma were talking about these things. He didn't hide anything and told Emma about his entire thought process as he stood calmly in front of the fire, including his story about "not hearing any prayers."

"It can't be that bad." Milo put a cushion behind his back and leaned back, slumping on the sofa in an even more decadent posture.

“But that’s the only explanation, isn’t it? Otherwise, why would you go with her to dismantle those bounty posters?” Emma analyzed.

"Are you talking about subconscious judgment?" Milo muttered, glancing at the time on his watch before asking Emma, ​​"You've been sitting here almost all night, aren't you tired?"

Emma closed the book and placed it on her lap, resting her elbow on the book. She then propped her chin up with her hand, leaned forward slightly, and turned to ask Milo:
"Then why do you think I've been sitting here waiting all night?"

Milo's half-closed eyebrows arched slightly upwards.

He remained in that slumped,颓废 posture, but the next second, a soft body pressed against him like a light veil.

Emma was only wearing a thin shirt, which, if I remember correctly, was Milo's law enforcement uniform, but this time the shirt had no trace of Shadow's sweaty smell, only a refreshing and pleasant fragrance.

She clung quietly to Milo, burying her head in his neck and closing her eyes.

At this distance, especially late at night, the sound of each other's heartbeats and breathing is incredibly clear.

Milo felt like he was holding a large kitten, the kind that would squint its eyes and rub its head against you.

...

“You know Kang sleeps in the room on the first floor, right?” Milo gently stroked Emma’s long hair.

“Mm,” she replied.

Milo added:
"Then you should know that after everything he's been through, he keeps several guns hidden in his drawer. I mean, what if he happens to get up in the middle of the night right now..."

After moving out of the 23rd parish, Kang turned his room into an armory, and the head of the household stubbornly insisted on sleeping on the dampest floor.

"I don't care, I just want to hug you."

Upon hearing what Milo said, Emma tightened her grip on Milo's neck.

"I think there must be one of me in the Abyss who died at Kang's hands." Milo said this, but his hands were not so well-behaved.

Emma countered with:

Are you sure you want this?

Upon hearing her tone, Milo raised his hand.

But the next second Emma pulled him back to his "original position".

She said irritably, "What I mean is, do you talk about your father with other girls when you're with them?"

"Then what should we be talking about...?" Milo muttered.

"How do you think the Ancient Ones managed to remain in hibernation for hundreds of millions of years?" Emma asked a question that caught Milo somewhat off guard.

"Should I give a serious answer to this question, or just nonsense?" Milo asked.

"Strict".

"Okay, well... as far as I know, there is a type of glycoprotein called antifreeze glycopeptide that can bind to water and lower its freezing point."

"Anything else?" "You want to be rigorous, right? Well, just being able to withstand low temperatures is definitely not enough, because after hundreds of millions of years, they would have starved to death. We all know that 'ancient beings' is just a general term; they are not necessarily creatures that transcend order. So I think that in addition to being able to withstand freezing, they also need to have cryptobiological abilities, which is probably a kind of extreme dehydration, relying on substances like heat shock proteins to keep the cell structure from being destroyed, and surviving in a state similar to hibernation... Also, I'm curious, does talking about this kind of content excite you or what?"

"It makes me sleepy~" Emma yawned, then asked, "Is it nice to touch?"

“Last time was rather rushed, so this is just a quick review,” Milo said. “After all, what happened in the Abyss World doesn’t count.”

“But the abyss has spread into the conscious world,” Emma reminded her.

"Then..."

Milo was about to ramble on about something.

Suddenly, they both realized that Kang's snoring in the back room on the first floor had suddenly stopped.

The door creaked open the next second.

……

Milo could feel that the moment the door opened, Emma's breath, which had been close to his ear, stopped.

And her body, which had been soft, relaxed, and drowsy, suddenly became stiffer than a crowbar.

The good news is that Kang simply staggered to the kitchen, poured himself a glass of water, gulped it down, and then went back to his room and closed the door.

This guy barely opened his eyes the entire time; he was practically sleeping every second.

...

Only when the snoring resumed in the room did Milo whisper gloatingly in Emma's ear, "So you can still get nervous, huh?"

"Hmph, so what if he knows? You were only allowed to move into this house after I gave my permission." The person was still being stubborn.

"Then shouldn't I repay Miss Valrocan properly?"

"We should repay them properly."

"How can we repay them?"

Emma whispered a word in Milo's ear: "Shadow Hug?"

His eyes widened in surprise: "How did you know that..."

"Never mind that, I just know."

...

……

The next day.

Milo hadn't originally planned to go to the law enforcement office.

But that restless person came knocking on the door early in the morning again.

It's still our Miss Kent.

However, she was much calmer this time than she was last night, but her expression was a little off, as if she had seen something strange.

But the first thing he said to Milo was:

Why do you smell like Emma?

"Are you a dog?" Milo shrugged.

"Why curse when I was just saying it casually..." Enid pouted, then looked down at the stack of wanted posters in her hand and remembered why she was there.

She suddenly held up the stack of arrest warrants and said to Milo, "Look at this!"

"Oh, I saw it. And then what?"

“The arrest warrants are all back! This morning, everyone in the law enforcement office had a set on their desk. See? I wasn’t lying to you. Someone really did set all this up in secret!” Enid said, pointing to the “evidence” in her hand.
