Absolute Zone Zero: I survive in Liufen Street

Chapter 22 Subsequent Turbulence 4

In front of the gate of the Public Security Bureau, Bai Yu looked at the place that had become familiar to him and felt a lot of emotion.

Who would have thought that a good citizen who used to be law-abiding and never went to government agencies except to apply for documents would now go to the police station every few days and almost have to eat "public grain".

It can be said that fate is unpredictable and things in the world are hard to predict.

"Xiaobai, why are you daydreaming again? Come in quickly!" Fu Fu, who is of a different species and standing next to Bai Yu, completely does not understand the sentimentality of human beings. Now she only cares about the "taste" of human emotions.

Anyway, she didn't like Bai Yu's current mood, which was neither sweet nor bitter, neither delicious nor unpalatable.

"Okay, okay. Let's go." Bai Yu followed Fu Fu's pull and walked into the Public Security Bureau. He found Susan's office with familiarity.

When Bai Yu came over, Susan was talking to a male sheriff who looked a little older and had a serious look and clothes.

Just by looking at Susan who kept smiling and had an awkward look with a guilty conscience, one could tell that the topic they were discussing was probably not friendly to Susan.

"You're here!" Susan, who had been looking around and not daring to meet her master's gaze, suddenly brightened up when Bai Yu and Fu Fu approached. With a look of relief, she happily greeted the two, "What a coincidence you came. Come on, let me introduce you."

This is the sheriff who will be in charge of your follow-up investigation, and he was my mentor when I joined the team, Officer Zheng."

As Susan spoke, she moved towards Bai Yu, walked behind them, put her arms around their shoulders, bent down, and whispered in Bai Yu's ear, "My master is a "serious" sheriff as his name suggests.

You should be more careful when you speak. The master is very responsible and considerate.

Don't use the same tricks you used to fool me on my master!"

Susan stood up straight again, smiling brightly as she introduced Bai Yu to Officer Zheng. "This is the classmate Bai Yu I mentioned to you, and his newly found sister, Fu Fu. They're both quite shy and timid. Master, please answer your questions slowly. Don't scare them."

"In your eyes, I'm just a man-eating tiger, right?" Officer Zheng said unhappily, but when she saw the two children in front of her who were indeed a little nervous, she softened her tone.

"Hello, two little classmates.

I've called you here today simply to get a closer look at the situation. Don't worry. These are just some daily questions.

My unreliable apprentice, I'm the type who won't put in any extra effort if I can afford to be lazy. I've also reviewed Bai Yu's previous investigation report. While the content meets the requirements, many details that should have been recorded are vague. Officer Zheng couldn't help but glare at Susan at this point. "Your resubmitted application also has some irregularities in its filling. Please take a seat, young students, and we'll discuss this."

Officer Zheng took Bai Yu and Fu Fu to an interrogation room. He provided them with pen and paper, and Susan poured water for everyone. She also placed some snacks beside Bai Yu and Fu Fu.

When she passed by Bai Yu, she patted his shoulder gently and gave him a look that told him to fend for himself.

Officer Zheng, who was sitting opposite the two of them, noticed Susan's little movements and coughed forcefully twice.

Only after Susan sat down beside him dejectedly and opened the notebook to prepare to take notes did Officer Zheng begin to ask questions.

When Bai Yu actually faced Officer Zheng with the application report and began to question him carefully one by one, he realized how much Susan had let him off in the previous investigation.

Bai Yu was very thankful that his body could now adjust itself, so he didn't break into a cold sweat when asked by the experienced sheriff.

Even so, Bai Yu was still very cautious in his answers, slowing down his speech. His mind was working at high speed, and he answered their life situations half-truthfully and half-falsely. Even if it was an insignificant question, he would think over it word by word, and only dared to speak it out after confirming that there were no contradictions in the answer.

After finally finishing this interrogation, Bai Yu felt that even if he dealt with [Armored Hati] again, he would not feel as exhausted as he did now.

After all, he not only had to think of his own answer, but also mentally tell Fufu how to respond. When this moment finally ended, Bai Yu even wanted to collapse in his chair.

"Thank you for your hard work, young students." Officer Zheng looked at the information in Susan's notebook and formed a preliminary conclusion. As a sheriff with many years of experience, he could certainly see that there was something hidden in the information.

But looking at the two young children and the pleading eyes of his unworthy apprentice, Officer Zheng didn't continue to investigate further.

After all, there is still a long time to come, and he has also seen the empty record of saving people by this child named Bai Yu, so he cannot immediately conclude whether he is good or bad.

Officer Zheng sighed and stopped asking Bai Yu about himself. Instead, he began to ask about other things.

"I see the address you left only gives an approximate block, but no specific location. Is there anything inconvenient about this?"

My subsequent visits and investigations will also require your cooperation. If you have any difficulties, please let me know now."

"Well, that's nothing. The place we lived in before was very close to the Hollow. But now it has completely sunk into the Hollow and is no longer habitable.

So I'm preparing to look for a new place to live." Bai Yu lowered his eyes and said with frustration in his tone, "But we are the only two children, and most landlords are unwilling to rent a house to two minors.

I have to ask people I know to help us find a suitable place, so I can’t give you a specific address yet.”

"I can testify that this is true. Bai Yu...classmate also asked me to help him find a house." Susan immediately chimed in. Then she turned to look at Bai Yu worriedly and asked, "But why didn't you tell me yesterday that you have no place to stay now? So where did you stay last night?"

"A kindhearted person took us in for the night. This morning, with the help of an acquaintance, we found a hotel that offers short-term accommodation," Bai Yu replied, while Fu Fu nodded vigorously beside him, telling Susan not to worry.

"How can that be? The hotel is bustling with people, with so many strangers. How can I feel safe with you two children living there?" Susan immediately retorted, "I've been working a lot of overtime lately, so I'm living in the police dormitory. You two should move in with me first."

I will help you find a suitable house as soon as possible. Besides, you promised to come back with me before, don't you want to regret it?"

"Ah? Police dormitory... this is not good, right?! This kind of place should be a welfare benefit of the Public Security Bureau. It's not a place where outsiders can just rent it out, right?" Bai Yu answered evasively.

"That's the rule, but you can go through the family passage and stay here temporarily," Officer Zheng explained.

"That's right. When the sheriff's family comes to visit, they will stay in the dormitory for a short period of time. You don't have to worry about violating the rules. It's settled. I'll go get the application form." Susan said as she stood up to get the application form.

Soon the two applications were placed in front of Bai Yu and Fu Fu, leaving them no right to refuse.

Bai Yu looked at the application form, then looked at Susan's face which was full of the expression of "You're doomed if you dare to refuse!", and helplessly picked up the pen to start filling it out.

Fu Fu, who was beside him, was writing while secretly saying to Bai Yu in her heart: "Are we like a mouse living in a cat's nest?"

Bai Yu could only give her a look and let her figure it out for herself.
