Cyberzaun, Machinarium

"Serves you right. Who told you to mention her?" Jinx complained dissatisfiedly. She got angry when she saw Littlefinger's confused look. She stepped on the accelerator hard, and the engine let out a sharp sound as it rushed towards the port.

"I just heard that your sister hasn't been doing well lately. It seems that neither city likes her very much, so I wanted to find an opportunity to have a meal together so that she doesn't have to go and eat for free."

"Ha, that sounds nice, but what does her condition have to do with me? Why are you telling me that?" The car narrowly bypassed the crowds of people on the road, accelerating as if to squeeze out all the performance of the engine. Enoch could already feel that the front of the car was about to float up.

He was now even more shocked that the girl could handle it so easily at such a fast speed without hitting anything.

"I think it's okay if you don't want to go. I'm just giving you a suggestion... Jinx, you're almost at the dock. I suggest you slow down."

The girl ignored Enoch and instead took the time to turn on the CD player. The sound of rock music filled the car, easily covering up other sounds.

"Jinx, stop now, this thing can't run on the sea"

"Jinx?"

Seeing the girl's angry look, Enoch secretly rolled his eyes and gave up the idea of drowning out the rock music. He just supported his head with one hand, resting it on the inner bulge of the glass, and quietly accompanied the girl to vent her emotions.

Seeing that there was no road in front of the dock, Jinx reluctantly stepped on the brakes, leaving long marks along the tires, and the vehicle finally stopped in front of the end.

After turning off the girl's favorite music, Enoch listened to the heavy breathing in his ears and calmed down a little before he slowly asked, "Are you going to take me to die with you?"

"No, I said I wouldn't hurt you, I'm just... a little annoyed." Jinx quickly explained, turning sideways, but she didn't dare to look up, and kept avoiding Enoch's sight.

“That’s not a good reason.”

After a brief silence, Jinx stood up from the small car and sat astride Enoch. She gently reached out her hand and touched Enoch, pulling the boy's eyes back from looking out the window.

"I'm sorry, I just... I don't know how to see her after that operation." Indigo's eyes were full of loss, and her sweet and low voice sounded pitiful.

Enoch finally hugged the pitiful girl and said, "I guess your sister may not understand, but she may believe you. In fact, I think if you have done something wrong, she might catch you and teach you a lesson, and then let you go by accident."

"That's what she did, but she wasn't the one who let me go."

"what?"

"Nothing," the girl suddenly evaded the question, but Little Finger raised his head forcefully. They looked at each other guiltily for a moment, and finally hesitantly revealed the truth, "It's just... the afternoon before yesterday, I took advantage of that stupid big guy on duty and made a small mistake, and was caught by her."

"What kind of little mistakes?"

"Illegal carrying of large amounts of explosives... I think she just doesn't like me. I'm from an arms dealer's family, so it's normal for me to carry some small things with me, right?"

Chapter 112: Visits between Relatives (Part 2)

Jinx always acted like a good girl in front of Enoch, only acting naughty occasionally. After spending so much time together, he almost forgot the girl's restless nature.

"Excuse me, how much is the little thing you are talking about?"

"Not much." The girl raised her eyebrows easily. Seeing Enoch's serious expression, she bit her lower lip awkwardly and chuckled a few times. "I just have normal equipment and a few grenades."

To be honest, according to her habits, this is basically no different from being empty-handed. Enoch was also a little puzzled. Could it be that Wei has now become a model of law-abidingness? She should understand her sister's situation.

"Maybe your sister just wants to set a good example"

"Ha, she's really doing her job. I guess she just doesn't want me to disturb her date with her girlfriend. Who else would lock their sister in a cubicle at a bank?"

Jinx casually mentioned some very important things, "Bank? What bank?"

"Well, didn't I tell you? It was the Zodiac Bank. She arrested me there."

Enoch hugged the innocent-looking girl and stared at her blankly for a while before realizing that she really didn't feel that there was anything wrong.

Jinx was also frightened by the look on her face and wrinkled her nose. "Why are you looking at me?"

"It's okay...what's next?"

"Then Max came and took me away, and released me after a few streets... Do you remember that unlucky guy? He is now sitting on the mess, and he wants to run away but no one is taking over. He is frowning all day long..."

Listening to the girl's chattering gossip, Enoch gradually became distracted. He unconsciously pulled the girl into his arms and gently stroked her back.

The carriage fell silent at some point, and Enoch finally reacted. He quietly pulled his hand out of his clothes and whispered to the girl lying on him: "If you are unhappy, let's go home first."

Jinx said coquettishly, "Hmph, we can go to Wei's place, but she should be trying to please the tall guy with a silly smile on her face. I don't want to wait for her like an idiot."

"Where do you want to go? I'll listen to you."

The two spent a pleasant afternoon in the car. Jinx, who was in a much better mood, hummed a song all the way and slowly drove towards Wei's apartment.

At this time, Enoch, whose mind was completely empty, suddenly discovered from the car window that Piltover had unknowingly had so many Zaun shops. These shops were different from the original Piltover style that was full of gears, pipes, and steam. Most of them had shiny liquid pipes and exuded bright colors.

"Do we have a store in Piltover?"

Jinx thought for a moment and said, "No, it seems that we only have a store in Demacia, and all other stores are pre-ordered."

"Really? Then remember to remind me to open a branch here in a couple of days." Enoch said casually, closing his eyes. "I'll take a nap first, call me when you get there."

…………

When Jinx woke Enoch up with the braid, the sky had already begun to darken. Rubbing his eyes, Enoch was a little confused, "Why did you drive for so long?"

"Well, I took a little detour. I was just racing," Jinx laughed and urged Littlefinger to get out of the car. "Come on, let's go up and find her."

Enoch was almost dragged by the girl to jog to Wei's door. Jinx first tilted her head at him, then quickly leaned on the handrail on the side pretending to be reluctant.

With a chuckle, Enoch went forward and knocked on Wei's dormitory door, but he didn't expect that the door would open as soon as he tried hard.

Jinx silently pulled out her pistol and adjusted it, then took a step forward to block Enoch behind her and slowly walked in.

The room was a bit messy. A pair of dumbbells rolled casually on the ground. A law enforcement officer's jacket was placed on the shelf, and two huge boxing gloves were sloppily covered with towels. It must be said that the environment inside Wei's room was a little bad.

Enoch followed behind, watching Jinx vigilantly check for hidden dangers in the blind spots of the house. The few rooms were emptied one by one until the innermost bedroom had its door ajar and voices could be heard from inside.

The two looked at each other, activated the shields modified from hextech gems they carried with them, and pushed open the door.

The two people in the room also reacted immediately and stood up quickly. Wei rushed to the door quickly, then slammed on the brakes after seeing the blue hair and the electromagnetic pistol in front of him.

"Hey... hello, why didn't you notify us? Knock on the door?"

"Because you didn't lock the door at all." Enoch patted Jinx's shoulder, motioning her to relax. "I came here because I heard that a guy kept getting complaints and had to go to his colleague's house for free food and drinks."

Glancing at Caitlin who was standing by with a rifle in her arms, the girl raised her hand stiffly to greet him, but her fingertips were stained with a lot of cream. She then looked down at the cupcake in the box and the cream on Wei's mouth...

"It seems I misunderstood. What I thought of as freeloading was drinking and chatting awkwardly at someone else's house, not someone delivering food to your door and feeding you."

"Good evening, Vi. Good evening, Caitlyn."

Several people hurriedly cleaned up all the things that had overturned in the house, and then sat down in the dining room, looking at each other in a tense atmosphere.

"I think I brought Jinx here as a guest, so... let's all make ourselves comfortable, okay?"

Jinx shook herself and spoke first: "I'm sorry for causing you trouble."

"It's okay. I was a little too aggressive. There were too many people around that day. I couldn't just do nothing. I had to be quiet... Anyway, I'm sorry." Wei nodded, and the atmosphere became a little lively.

"Yes, the atmosphere seems to be suitable now, so before we go to the restaurant I booked in advance, I have something to ask you two." Enoch smoothed things over and asked the most important question while the two law enforcement officers were drinking water.

"Have there been any special guests in Piltover recently?"

Wei and Caitlyn looked at each other and shook their heads silently. "I'm keeping an eye out for you, but there's no difference. I've talked to my colleagues, and the number of people who came to Evolution Day this year is no different from previous years. Most of them are still Noxians and Shurimans, with the occasional Demacian and Bilgewater sea rats running around. Although the flow of people this year is not as large as in previous years, there are quite a few Ionian specialties on display. The blankets over there are really beautiful."

Caitlin on the side took over the conversation, "This is quite normal. The two cities were not very peaceful recently. Some people did not want to get involved, so they canceled their trips."

Enoch nodded, tapped his fingers lightly on the table, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Tell me about the specialties of Ionia."

Chapter 113: Visits between Relatives (Part 3)

The sudden question made the law enforcement officer stunned. As a newcomer, Wei had no idea what the problem was. She could only look to the knowledgeable Miss Jiraman for help.

Caitlin thought carefully for a while, then slowly recalled the things she hadn't paid much attention to before: "They are all normal, with all the customs formalities in place, and their attire is no different from the previous times. The products they sell are mainly Blooming Spirit Tea and Cloud Weaving. The only thing worth noting is that there are sometimes wandering monks in their team. Do you suspect someone is impersonating these monks?"

Enoch tapped the table subconsciously, a little hesitant. "I'm not sure. I want to ask, haven't their products changed? Varieties, total quantity, etc."

Caitlin held her chin with her hand, thought for a while, and then shook her head firmly.

"Hmm... this is interesting." The knocking on the table paused, and Enoch slowly told the two law enforcement officers about his concerns. "As far as I know, Ionia has been tormented by Noxus. There has been no major war, but small riots are everywhere. I am puzzled that in such a closed social environment, the handicraft industry has not reduced production after the war, especially since I heard that this year's Spring Blossom cannot be held smoothly."

"How do they keep their products the same? Especially the wandering monks... Most of their temples were destroyed by Noxus, so why are they still wandering around... Are they seeking funding?"

"No, usually they are invited to the homes of Piltover merchants to teach them meditation and exercises." Looking at the strange gazes around her, Caitlin quickly explained to herself, "I learned about this when I attended a party with my mother. I don't really believe in that kind of thing."

"Anyway," Enoch said with a light knock, helping the policewoman out of the situation, "please find an excuse to check on them, fire drills, safety hazard inspections, etc. Bring Atlas security personnel with you, and be careful."

"You're suspicious of Ionian merchants just because of this." Jinx laid on the table, stirring the spoon boredly. "Then I also feel that there's something wrong with those people from Demacia. They came here to do business without telling us? There's something wrong at first glance."

"I'm not just suspicious of Ionia, I'm wary of everyone, but I guess the Ionian merchants this time are in league with Noxus, so I need them to take precautions in advance... As for Demacia, we've just opened a store, and not every Demacian knows about the Loslien Company."

Jinx was swaying in her seat, and it was unclear whether she heard anything or not.

"In short, both Piltover and Zaun are showing signs of weakness after being tough. I wonder how many people are watching them in secret. I suggest that we mix the terrorist squad with the law enforcement officers in the next few days. If you have any equipment problems, come to me directly."

"That's not necessary." Wei pointed at the gloves placed at the door. "This thing is enough for me. Piltover is not so chaotic that almost everyone has a gun. On the contrary, in Zaun... Why do I feel that some gangs wear better clothes than the law enforcers?"

Jinx didn't take it seriously. "That's normal, because the people of Piltover get arrested for committing crimes. In Zaun, the battle usually starts first, and the one who survives is the winner."

"Ha, speaking of this, I remembered a joke I heard about it, saying that the detention center usually holds drunken Piltover guys, ordinary cells hold Zaun thugs, and solitary confinement holds Zaun's outdated bosses. As for those who should be hanged directly - they are all staying in the congressman's house to make suggestions."

After laughing twice at an inappropriate time, Wei noticed Caitlin's dangerous gaze and hurriedly coughed awkwardly to change the subject, "By the way, what are you doing here?"

"Little Finger Hair was kind-hearted and wanted to take you to slow down your taste buds, but it seems you don't need it." With a snort, Jinx stood up and leaned against the window, looking at the scenery outside.

"I just heard that you were almost done with this month's salary, so I came to check it out." Enoch waved his hand and glanced at Caitlin. "Maybe I'm overthinking it. You might be having a happy life."

"I think if you want to help me, you shouldn't let her deduct half a month's salary from me all at once," Wei complained, pouring herself a cup of tea. "I can't afford anything to drink now."

"You can come to my wine cellar anytime... I welcome you anytime. By the way, I'm planning to buy a shop in Piltover and do some sports car business. I'd like to trouble you to take care of it. I will provide you with some customized services. You can..."

"Let's go downstairs and eat now." Jinx suddenly came over and pulled up Vi and Caitlyn without saying a word. She hugged them intimately, regardless of their sudden stiff postures.

"Hurry up, I'm starving. It will be troublesome if we are late." Jinx pushed the two law enforcers and urged Enoch who was lagging behind. "Hurry up, Littlefinger, you are responsible for closing the door."

Watching the three girls running downstairs in a hurry, Enoch looked around the room in a slightly messy manner, but he hadn't finished what he was saying yet.

Shaking his head, he secretly prayed that Wei had the habit of carrying keys with her. His little finger closed the door without any pressure and followed him out.

"Is this the product Little Finger mentioned? It looks really cool." Wei walked around the car twice. He praised with satisfaction, "How can I pre-order this thing? I want to get one, too."

"Ha, you've asked the right person," Jinx grinned as she threw the car key with the Fire Chew grenade attached to it over. "Why don't you go up and give it a try?"

Wei was a little overwhelmed holding the key. "Is it okay? I don't know how to operate this thing."

"It's okay. I'll teach you. This thing is very simple. Go and try it." Jinx urged with a smile on her face. "Oh, come on. I'm your sister. How could I lie to you?"

"Are you sure she won't be ejected if she sits on it?" Caitlyn was a little suspicious of the girl who suddenly became attentive. She had not forgotten what Jinx would do if she went crazy.

"I promise, there is nothing wrong with the car. I promise you on my little finger. Do you believe me now?"

The law enforcement officers looked at each other, and Wei sat carefully in the cab and started the engine according to Jinx's instructions.

Listening to the roaring engine sound, Wei excitedly exclaimed, "This sounds great, much cooler than that infantry fighting vehicle."

Just when Wei was about to ask how this thing worked, he found that the girl turned around lightly, jumped onto the stairs without even looking at him.

"What?" Just as he was wondering, several infantry fighting vehicles with police logos painted on them suddenly rushed in from the road nearby and surrounded the sports car in which Wei was sitting.

The car door opened, and several law enforcement officers rushed down and surrounded Wei tightly. They pointed their guns at Wei, who was sitting in the driver's seat and didn't understand the situation, and shouted loudly, "Don't move. You are under arrest for trespassing on a closed road and disrupting public order. Now, get off that thing with your head in your hands."

"what the hell?"

Chapter 114: Victor's Visit

To be honest, when Enoch walked downstairs and saw Wei being pointed at by the law enforcement officer with a gun, he was shocked for a moment.

"What happened?" Enoch looked at Jinx first. He assured him that this was a completely subconscious reaction.

Jinx also looked panicked. "I don't know. Suddenly someone ran out and trapped my sister somewhere. Please, Little Finger, go and save her. There must be some misunderstanding."

Because Jinx was so pitiful and obedient, Enoch's first reaction was not to rescue her, but to guess whether she had done something to screw Wei over again.

Suddenly she realized that Jinx was the head of Atlas security. According to the current situation, she could forcefully order these law enforcement officers to arrest or release people.

Besides, Wei is also a law enforcement officer, why doesn’t he take out his police officer ID and explain things clearly?

It happened so quickly that everyone present thought it was a prank by the other party. It was not until Wei got out of the car with his hands raised that the law enforcement officers who had arrived breathed a sigh of relief. At least they could see who it was and did not have to point their guns at him for the time being.

"Wei?" The middle-aged man in the lead looked at the girl in front of him in confusion, "Do you know what a big mess you caused by driving this thing to the commercial street? What were you thinking? I don't think you'll get any salary for the next six months." "I swear to the damn God, I can't drive this thing, let alone go to a commercial street. I just put my butt on it for a while. Don't fucking throw dirty water on me."

Caitlin glanced at the girl who was pulling Enoch to act coquettishly, and asked faintly, "Regarding the riot, when did it happen?"

"In the afternoon, about an hour ago, this thing moved very fast, making it very hard for us to find it. If we hadn't heard the sound of it starting from a distance, we would probably have come up empty-handed again."
