Fourteenth Street, Crete-related Void, T8-AE32 area.

The four members of the Cunning Rabbit House returned to this sacred place for attracting monsters.

Nicole nudged Su Chen's shoulder and said with some disdain, "Hurry up and use your crappy ability to lure out a bunch of skeletons. Once we've killed them, we can go eat at the buffet sooner and have two more hours to eat."

After three days of luring monsters, Nicole and her two companions realized that Su Chen possessed a certain ability to attract skeletons.

Despite her surprise, Nicole wasn't particularly interested in this ability. After all, most people would avoid Yi Hai; nobody likes having a bunch of Yi Hais gathering together and getting beaten up.

It can only be somewhat useful in this kind of accompanying void, where there are no powerful beings above level 6.

"What do you mean by 'the ability to get beaten up'? That's a divine skill!"

Su Chen said with some dissatisfaction.

[Taunt] With his dodge and roll, he can run the whole world around like a dog, and it wouldn't be difficult for him to lure them all into the void.

If he harbors any ill intentions, this city is doomed.

"Alright, alright, quickly use your divine skill to lure Yi Hai over here."

Nicole casually brushed it off.

"..."

Su Chen rolled his eyes and ignored the narrow-minded woman.

Just as he was about to lure the monster, he caught a glimpse of two figures flashing past and disappearing behind a wrecked forklift.

A loli in a crop top with blue twin ponytails, and a dashing sheriff with black hair in a high ponytail and red tassels.

At this moment, two sheriffs were hiding behind the forklift, seemingly observing them.

Su Chen didn't know what the two of them were doing here, but he knew that fun had arrived.

He grinned wickedly and pointed to the hiding place of the two sheriffs, then said to Nicole, "Nicole, there's a bunch of Tennys I've hidden behind that forklift. Take them and they're yours!"

"Hey, Tenny!" Nicole's eyes lit up as she complained, "Honestly, if you want to give me a gift, just give it to me directly! Why all this fuss?"

Nicole ran excitedly toward the wrecked forklift, her movements light and graceful like a bird in flight.

However, when she was about to embrace the non-existent Tenny, two sheriffs were watching her with helpless expressions.

"Governor, police officer!"

Nicole let out a sharp screech, startling her so much that she stumbled back several steps.

Billy and Ambi also instinctively assumed defensive stances, nervously watching Zhu Yuan and Qingyi.

"Senior Qingyi, we've been discovered again."

Zhu Yuan stepped out from behind the fork and said with some distress.

She had naturally seen Su Chen's actions just now; he had clearly discovered them, which was why he had tricked this lady into coming over.

"Seeing the big picture from small details, and making subtle observations, the police department's core competency has been surpassed by others."

"I'm leaning against the forklift," Qingyi said casually.

"Senior Qingyi, please don't say such things at this time. It will make our Public Security Bureau seem very unprofessional."

Zhu Yuan whispered a reminder in Qingyi's ear.

Then, Zhu Yuan looked at the terrified Nicole and comforted her, saying, "I'm sorry, citizen, we didn't mean any harm."

"Haha, well... of course I know. How could a sheriff have any ill intentions towards law-abiding citizens?" Nicole wiped the sweat from her forehead and said with an awkward laugh, "I was just a little nervous, a little nervous."

After saying this, Nicole quickly retreated to Su Chen's side and pinched his waist hard.

This bastard is messing with her again. Does he even consider himself her boss?

This is too much!

"Su Chen, is this the huge sum of Tennys you were talking about?" Nicole said through gritted teeth, her voice low and menacing. "If you can't give me a satisfactory explanation, I'll trample you under my feet!"

"Sorry, Nicole, I misremembered. I didn't have time to hide the Tennys." Su Chen reached behind him and pulled out a handful of large-denomination Tennys: "This is the gift I wanted to give you."

"Oh! I'm satisfied with this explanation!"

Nicole happily grabbed Tenny, forgetting everything else.

After resolving Nicole's issue, Su Chen looked at Qingyi and Zhu Yuan and calmly said, "You two have been observing from the shadows for quite some time. What is your purpose?"

"We apologize for the trouble caused to you hollow investigators; we actually had no malicious intent."

“We are tracking down the mastermind behind several disappearances of people in the Bomb case, and we have finally narrowed it down to this area.”

"Since I saw that you all arrived first, I thought I would observe the situation first."

Zhu Yuan looked apologetic and told the truth.

"The disappearance of Bomb? Such a minor case shouldn't warrant the deployment of two elite members of the Special Operations Team." Nicole asked with some doubt, "Shouldn't these kinds of cases be assigned to the civil affairs section's sheriff?"

“You’re right. I wouldn’t normally be able to handle this kind of case on my own. It’s ridiculous, actually. I was even planning to take time off to deal with it.” Qingyi nodded in agreement.

As a fellow mechanical construct, she was more concerned about Bomb's disappearance than the others.

"So what's going on with two elite forces being deployed at the same time?"

Su Chen asked with some curiosity.

The man in green casually said, "Actually, those people arrested Bangbu, the son of a city bureau chief. Chief Bollinger took it very seriously and assigned the task to our group."

"When the leader loses his position, a criminal investigation elite emerges. Like catching rats in an empty hole, Bangbu will surely be redeemed."

As she spoke, she shook her head and then gave a summary.

"Huh? That makes perfect sense!"

"However, Senior Qingyi, there's no need to talk about this!"

Zhu Yuan looked at Qingyi with a hint of helplessness.

This could easily have a negative impact on citizens.

"Don't worry, I'm sure they'll understand." The woman in green said nonchalantly, looking at Su Chen and Nicole with a smile, "Right? Law-abiding citizens."

“I can definitely understand. Now that you mention it, I understand everything.” Nicole nodded knowingly.

Official business should be handled officially, and the leaders' matters should naturally be given priority.

Su Chen understood perfectly; even the Zero Zone had its own set of social customs and was very easy to understand.

"In other words, the two sheriffs followed the clues and found this place together, believing it to be the criminals' hideout." Billy breathed a sigh of relief: "I thought we'd been caught for what we did!"

“Billy!” Nicole quickly stopped Billy’s rambling and explained to Qingyi and Zhu Yuan, “His AI module is malfunctioning and he keeps saying incoherent things.”

Zhu Yuan keenly sensed something was wrong: "If you guys have done something wrong, the Public Security Bureau can't just sit idly by."

"How could that be? We're law-abiding citizens, we wouldn't do anything wrong!" Nicole said, trying to sound casual.

"It better be this way."

"I am in green," said Qingyi calmly.

Nicole: "Ladies, let's get back to your business."

Zhu Yuan asked the group, "Mr. Su Chen, Ms. Nicole, now that you understand the situation, have you noticed any clues?"

"There is a clue, at least," Su Chen said thoughtfully. "These past few days, while I was cleaning up the remains, I would occasionally feel some prying eyes."

"The bandits you are tracking should be in some hollow crevice nearby."

He used [Taunt] to attract the skeletons, but attracted thousands of them at once.

The fact that the other party could still safely spy from the shadows despite being covered by so many skeletons means that the other party must be in a place where the skeletons cannot enter.

Considering the characteristics of cavities, only cavities and fissures fit this description.

"Thank you for the tip, you've been a great help!"

Zhu Yuan said gratefully.

"Don't mention it, I'm just telling the truth."

Su Chen said nonchalantly.

Zhu Yuan looked around at the vast ruins and felt somewhat troubled.

It seems there has been a major battle here for several days, and everything has been destroyed.

The traces left by the bandits were mixed in and difficult to find.

Zhu Yuan asked hesitantly, "Um, Miss Nicole, Mr. Su Chen, could you please assist with the investigation? This place is too chaotic and too big."

"Excuse me, please allow me to refuse." Nicole refused without even thinking.

Just kidding, what kind of tomb raider would cooperate with a sheriff?

Moreover, Billy had just accidentally exposed his chicken feet, and now she couldn't wait to get as far away from Zhu Yuan and Qingyi as possible.

"That's it..."

Zhu Yuan was somewhat disappointed, but she didn't insist.

"..."

Qingyi looked at Nicole thoughtfully.

If I remember correctly, when this girl ran towards them, she seemed to be calling out something like Tenny.

"Can't you really help?"

"Qingyi looked at Nicole and asked."

"Do not……"

Nicole shook her head, about to refuse.

"We can pay more."

Qingyi rubbed her fingers together and said calmly.

"Don't be shy, just tell me what you need!"

Nicole immediately put on a smiling face.
