Chapter 12: New Commission from the Rabbit House, Departure

……

Two days passed in a flash.

The prosperity of New Ailidu is like a spider web, from strong to weak, and all kinds of things in the world gather in this city that is like a lonely tower in the sea.

And at the corner of the spider web, in a place that is more chaotic but also warmer than the prosperous place, there is a general-purpose office called Gentle House, which is neither big nor small.

However, compared to its officially registered name, people who are familiar with this handyman shop usually call it the Cunning Rabbit House.

At this time, inside the Cunning Rabbit House.

"According to the latest reports, the Crete Hollow on Fourteenth Street has stopped expanding and is now under complete control. Residents have been properly relocated and are gradually returning to normal life."

"We have learned in detail that since this morning, the military has been working with the Public Security Bureau to seal off the Crete Hole."

"The reason is that the latest research results of the Cavity Research Institute need to be tested in the cavity. If successful, it will have a significant impact on cavity disaster management."

The latest news about the new Ailidu is being broadcast on TV. The host uses a pleasant voice to tell the audience the information that is allowed to be known to the public.

Without turning on the lights, the glow from the TV screen acted as a light source in the slightly dim house, shining on Nicole's fair face and casting a shadow.

"Here is an announcement from the Public Security Bureau."

"Recently, there has been a surge in the activity of cave robbers, and illegal rope makers have also become unusually active. We ask all enthusiastic citizens to report or provide clues. Those who provide true information will receive a generous reward..."

Nicole glanced at the TV silently. A few hundred denarii could be considered a high bonus?

If another ten thousand words were added at the end, maybe she would consider reporting herself.

"Hehehe~~Hehe~~Boss Nicole, why have you been so listless lately? You need to cheer up a bit."

Billy was wiping his twin guns with the gun oil that came with the Star Knight peripherals while humming a song. His eyes fell on Nicole who was lying on the sofa not far away, and he asked curiously.

The Cunning Rabbit House has gained a lot of income to improve its operations. Given Boss Nicole's personality, shouldn't she be very happy?

Billy lifted one leg, turned sideways, and reached out to put the gun oil back to the side. As he moved, the wild boar icon on the back of the red jacket also moved, coming to life.

"Ah... Nicole just lost her fighting spirit because...something was right in front of her, yet out of reach...Don't worry."

Amby sat on the small green sofa in the corner, holding a steaming hamburger in both hands, her cheeks slightly puffed, and she spoke while eating.

"How much is seven million? One zero, two zeros, three zeros, four zeros, five zeros..."

Nicole lay on her back on the sofa, raised her arms and counted her fingers one by one.

Even if she knew this information in advance, she would not sell it to the rebels. The risk was too great and it would likely implicate the entire Rabbit House.

But why did she still feel guilty?

"Ugh……"

Nicole looked at the ceiling weakly with her arms hanging down. When will the Cunning Rabbit House become rich overnight?

Jingle Bell--

A telephone ring sounded in the quiet room, attracting the attention of the three people. The sound came from the private phone of the Cunning Rabbit House, which was usually used for illegal business.

The ringing of the phone sounded a bit harsh in the room, but Nicole and Amby didn't move. Billy walked to the phone and answered it.

"Hey, this is the Cunning Rabbit House."

"Oh, that's how it is……"

Billy looked up at Nicole, moved the phone a little further away, and said to her

"Boss Nicole, someone has entrusted us with some trivial matters. The location is a dead end cave."

"Do you want to talk to her?"

Nicole looked at Billy when she heard that, and the decadence on her face faded a little. It had been a while since the Cunning Rabbit House had received any new commissions related to the void.

Generally speaking, the rewards for empty commissions are much higher than those for "Yokuwu" commissions, so Nicole will naturally not let them go.

He stood up and walked to Billy, reached out to take the phone, and started chatting with the person on the other end of the call.

After understanding the general information, Nicole raised her eyebrows. Seeing Billy and Amby looking at her, she began to explain.

"This commission is also related to us. If the Red Fang Gang hadn't been in trouble, I don't think we would have received this commission."

The commission was not difficult and was within the capabilities of the Cunning Rabbit House, so Nicole naturally chose to agree.

However, when discussing the commission time, Nicole said that it needed to be postponed for a few days.

Because Cunning Rabbit House has to go into the Crete Cave again with Phaethon to guide Xuan Li to find the core of the cave, so he can't spare the time now.

I thought the other party would use this opportunity to reduce the commission or cancel the commission directly, but unexpectedly, the other party did not mind and said they could accept it.

"Okay, then I'll let you know as soon as the Cunning Rabbit House is ready."

Nicole hung up the phone with satisfaction, and she was visibly happy. She quickly put aside the bad mood caused by the seven million Dinnies in the past two days.

Nicole, resurrected with full blood!

"Well, let's prepare for what's coming."

Nicole stretched her waist and looked at Billy.

"Billy, remember to restock your ammunition. This time, our target is the core corpse, so we must ensure that nothing goes wrong."

"Although our mission is only to protect Ies, it's still quite difficult. After all, no one knows what the core area of ​​the Crete Hollow has become after all this time."

"They talk a lot on TV about complete control... but after all these years, I haven't seen them truly completely control a single Hollow."

"Boss Nicole, why did you remind me instead of Ambi? Don't underestimate the Star Knights' preparations for the battle!"

Billy protested to Nicole upon hearing this, but Nicole looked at him calmly, as if to say, "Is there a problem with this?"

Billy was defeated and went to replenish his ammunition after realizing that his protest was ineffective, but Amby did not move. Except for the time when the battle had just ended, her backpack would always remain fully charged.

After waiting for a while, Nicole finally received a private message from Ling. After reading it, she picked up her suitcase and walked out while talking to the two people behind her.

"set off!"

……

Inside the Cretan Caves.

The rooftop of a tall building.

"Well... it's a little difficult, but I can do it."

In Xuan Li's hand, a ball of ether energy gathered and was constantly vibrating. The inside was dark, but the edges glowed with a strange glow, which was very strange.

Panda sat aside, watching his boss fiddling with the energy in his hands, full of confusion but still curious.

As Xuan Li slowly manipulated it, strands of inconspicuous light blue energy as thin as hair were slowly peeled off from the ether energy.

Ice attribute energy.
