The correct way to cultivate poros

Chapter 26 The Darkness Under the Lights

"Is Zell there?"

Zell heard someone calling him at the door, and the voice was familiar.

It's Caitlin.

He hurriedly got up to open the door. Caitlin came alone, carrying her collapsible rifle.

"Sister Kai, why are you here?" Zell was a little surprised, but still led Caitlin in.

"I heard that you were taken to Zaun? I was worried that you came over to have a look."

Caitlin, as the sheriff and Zell's cousin, has to come here for both business and private.Moreover, Zell didn't go home very often, and her sister and the family could only contact her if something happened, and she couldn't ignore it.

"Oh, you said that. In fact, that misunderstanding, a big boss in Zaun asked me to communicate with me about business problems, and it has been resolved, so don't worry."

"What can the big boss of Zaun have anything to do with you?" Caitlin habitually asked the bottom line. When she saw Roy sitting silently on the sofa, she suddenly paused.

"Sorry Miss Roy, I didn't know there were other people here."

"It's okay Sheriff, don't worry about me."

Catelyn took off her hat and held it in her arms so that she would not look so superior.And Roy didn't even stand up to greet Caitlin, which showed that she didn't take the sheriff seriously.

This behavior is actually not difficult to understand.

It is impossible for her to be ignorant of etiquette as a nobleman, but she let go of her airs as a core member of the parliamentary family just because she got closer to Zell, and she put it up again when she met other people.

Gilaman is the former parliamentary family, and Philos is one of the best in the current parliamentary family, so naturally it cannot be compared with the latter.

In order to take care of his cousin's feelings, Zell said before the cold break: "Roy, make some cupcakes. Sister Kay said she wanted to try it last time she came here. We can't disappoint people. Hurry up." go."

"Oh." Roy glanced at Zell, drank the black tea on hand, and walked to the back kitchen.

The teacup made a crisp sound when it hit the saucer.

Zell knew that she didn't say anything, and she must have scolded him all over in her heart. Maybe after Kaitlyn was sent away, she would come over and say something strange, saying that she fished all day on weekdays, but only on rest days. If people come to look for it, they won't even get a Poro if they suck it.

But do it all, don't think so much.

Zell took the seat Roy had vacated, and let Caitlin sit next to him.

"How can you use Albus' daughter." Caitlin lowered her voice.

"It doesn't matter who she is outside, as long as she is a clerk in the store, naturally I, the store manager, have the final say."

Caitlin was a little worried about Zell. She seemed to see a man who was brazen in order to highlight his family status. In fact, this kind of internal status was not very good. Zell would probably feel better when she left.

"What happened to you down there?"

After sitting down, Caitlin subconsciously touched the notebook and pen, and then realized that she was investigating and collecting evidence from the suspect, so she quickly put it away. "Ahem, I have an occupational disease."

"Sister Kai, I told you how my Poro got here."

Caitlin thought for a while, the Poro trade had gone through many hands, but the way to get to Piltover must have been through smuggling in the first place, otherwise the customs would definitely record and report it.And Zaan's smuggled goods are basically concentrated in one place, and the answer is ready to come out.

"Dark alley?"

"The big boss is right there."

"You!" Caitlin sighed nervously.

As the police chief, but failed to set a good example for those around him, a deep sense of frustration welled up.

The Dark Alley is a very troublesome place for the Justice Department in Piltover. They can't reach into the darkness. It has been like this for a long time.

Back then, Vander and Silko joined hands to conquer the black alleys, in order to let the people of Zaun create wealth through smuggling, instead of having to work hard for the people of Piltover.So, if Piltover tried to meddle in the dark alleys, even the scattered Zaunites would unite and fight back.

Can't control the black alley, and can't control your own brother?
Caitlin pointed at Zell's nose: "That's the end of the story, don't get involved with those people, otherwise I won't be able to help you if something happens. Do you hear me?"

"Understood." Zell nodded in a serious manner, and he had already blacked out the old Della in his heart.

Zell's attitude of admitting his mistake was quite sincere, so Caitlin stopped pursuing it.Seeing that there were only two siblings at the moment, she thought about it and decided to tell her peer Zell what it was inconvenient to tell her mother.

"Speaking of which, I also have a bad point. I was tracking C's whereabouts when you were taken away, and I couldn't find you immediately. Fortunately, you were fine."

"It doesn't matter to me. What happened to the case? It's been dragging on for so long, and it's time to come to an end." It's about the family's future and his own mission. It's impossible for Zell to say he's not interested.

"She ran away again, she was too vigilant, no matter how fast we moved, she would always run away, every time." Caitlin grabbed a handful of hair and buried her face in it Rubbing and rubbing, it seems that it has been troubled for a long time.

This was not the first time. Others said that she met her old enemy and was destined to be suppressed for a lifetime, which made her upset.

"Is it tricky?"

"Not really. Although C has always been mysterious, she has left a lot of clues over the years. She is not that thoughtful, but I am unlucky, and I miss it every time."

Looking through the gap between the index finger and middle finger with resentful eyes, the true face of C that emerged in front of his eyes was still shrouded in haze and blurred.

Am I missing something?It can't be luck every time...

"It's almost every time... Miss Kay, have you ever thought that your movements are always under her monitoring? So she can always respond in time." Zell felt that the cafe was a little dark, so he got up and turned on the lights .

Caitlin raised her head abruptly, and the lights came down, which was a kind of sudden enlightenment after clearing the clouds and fog.

Why does C dare to show up so frequently and doesn't know how to hide?

There is only one explanation—only when an informant is placed in the Office of Justice, can such unscrupulousness be achieved.

Her body was excited and eager to try.

Putting on the hat, Caitlin reverted to the calm and calm Sheriff of Piltover.

"Zell, thanks for reminding me, I'm leaving now."

"Ah? So fast! Why don't you leave after eating? Roy's craftsmanship is very good." Zell also wanted them to get acquainted. Thinking about it makes it so embarrassing to deduct three rooms and one living room.

"Next time, I can't wait to find out the ghost." Caitlin replied with an apologetic smile: "My sister, I complained so much to you, I really feel ashamed to see you."

"It's nothing. In the future, if you encounter troubles at work, just come and have a drink. I'll give you a free order."

"Then I'm welcome."

After being authoritarian for a long time, Caitlin discovered that she just needed a listener to help her review from another angle.

……

"Here, you ordered Caitlin's selection of cupcakes." Wearing thick heat-insulating gloves, Roy brought a freshly baked small cake from the back kitchen, and it fell in front of Zell with a snap. Qi's cake suddenly turned into a mess that Xiao Huang knocked over.

"You come only after everyone has left."

Zell looked at her with raised eyebrows, wondering why she reacted so violently this time.

"It doesn't take much time to do it now? Do you want me to conjure it up?" Roy dropped her gloves, closed her eyes, and sat down on the sofa beside him, closing her eyes and resting her mind.

It is rare that there is no yin and yang, but a direct argument.

Zell hadn't been through this battle before, so he knew it was best not to make a sound, but there were too many cakes to be eaten by one person.

He kept muttering in his heart, and under the entanglement, he still tentatively said: "Aren't you going to eat? If you don't eat, it will be wasted. What a pity."

"No waste! No pity!" Roy opened her eyes again, already full of murderous intent. "You asked me to make it. If you can't finish it, you have to finish it!"

Zell grimaced, alas, the Poro can only share his pain.
