At that time, when Penguin Logistics was arrested by Chen, he left too hastily and forgot to bring his wallet, so that it was past lunch time and Texas hadn't eaten yet.

"After all, this is the city of Longmen, and the price is relatively high. It is understandable that lunch is not provided for free... But look at Texas, Mr. Blaine ordered more than one apple pie for us, right? Let's eat some to fill our stomachs first, let's go back to the dormitory at night and ask Croissant and the others to go out for a big meal together!"

Taking out a piece of cold apple pie from the box, the energy angel handed it to Texas. "

"...Thank you."

"Well, it's a small matter...that Mr. Blaine bought it, Texas, I feel embarrassed to thank you."

Seeing that the Luper woman didn't refuse in the end, Angel Neng scratched her head and smiled.

"An angel...can I ask you a question?"

Staring at the apple pie in his hand, Texas raised his eyes.

"Eh?"

"You trust that man named Dana Bryan so much? You should know that if it wasn't for him, neither of us would be imprisoned here."

"Uh, this...probably out of intuition? You see, he got so close to that jealous police officer, how could he be a bad guy?"

"It's not certain...Many people are one way on the surface and another behind the scenes. I have seen too many people. Especially people like him who can't see emotional fluctuations are often the most unpredictable guy .”

Taking a bite of the edge of the soft apple pie, savoring the sweet and sour taste on the tip of his tongue, Texas said slowly.

"Can't see the mood swings? Isn't this kind of person very common, such as Texas, don't you just..."

"It's not the same... You should understand if you can make an angel. If you really want to compare someone around us, I think your old friend is very similar to him."

He ate the piece of apple pie in his hand three times, five times and two times, and Texas' feeling of hunger subsided a little.At the same time, she walked to the takeaway box next to Angel Neng and picked up another piece, saying:

"It's all the same peaceful smile, and it's all the same opacity... It seems like they don't need other emotions, or they don't have them anymore. I don't like to be in contact with such people, because in their eyes Here, it seems that all of this is dispensable."

"Texas, you mean...um."

Listening to Texas' words, Angel fell silent.

Is that true, does she feel the same way... It is indeed somewhat similar, that gentleman and her.

"But, Texas, I actually think it's all right, at least she's our friend too, isn't she. I think the same goes for that gentleman, and I'd love to be friends with that gentleman if given the chance. "

Showing a helpless smile, Neng Tian stretched his waist and said.

There are some things that you should not measure before you do them.Instead, you have to measure and judge after you do it.

As far as the angel himself is concerned, she feels that Mr. Blaine has not left a bad impression on her, at least so far.

"Hey...you can think what you want, I'm just reminding you just in case."

After eating another piece of apple pie, Texas' eyes moved, and then his face remained unchanged.

She doesn't need to think so much, after all, she only has one friend now, right?

"Haha, thank you Texas for your kindness... Hey, are you done eating?"

Responding to Luper's woman's words with a smile, Can Angel subconsciously wanted to pick up a piece of apple pie from the takeaway box to taste.But at this moment, she found that the takeaway box stacked on the bench was empty before she knew it.

"What's going on, I clearly remember that there is still one piece, why..."

Looking at the Luper woman who was wiping the corner of her mouth for some reason, Neng Angel couldn't understand what had just happened.

"Texas, have you seen..."

"Ding-dong-"

But just as she was about to ask Ms. Luper something again, the bell outside the detention room suddenly rang.

"...?"

.........

No.30 The Vigilance of Texas

"Mr. Blaine?"

The bell rang, and through the iron fence window of the gate of the detention room, Angel and Texas saw the figure of the man who entered and appeared in the compartment at the same time.

This person was exactly Xu You, but it was different from before. In addition to the umbrella handle held in his right hand, this time, Xu You also carried a plastic bag in his left hand.

"Good afternoon, Miss Canangel, Miss Texas."

Smiling and nodding to the two, the man carrying a plastic bag came to sit on the seat in the compartment outside the iron fence.At the same time, pass the plastic bag through the window to the two people in the detention room.

"Sir, you are..."

"I heard from the police officer on duty that the two of you didn't have lunch at noon, which was caused by our improper arrangement. So to express my apology, I bought some drinks and non-staple food for you from the supermarket next to the detention center. I hope you two don't mind."

Facing the red short-haired Sakota girl who took the plastic bag with some doubts, Xu You smiled.

"Drinks and non-staple food? Woo, thank you for your expense, Mr. Blaine!"

Opening the plastic bag, when he saw some things like biscuits and juices inside, the expression of Neng Angel gradually became more pleasantly surprised.

In the world of Terra where origin stone natural disasters are rampant and land resources are scarce, products related to "sugar" such as biscuit juice are not cheap consumables.

As mentioned earlier, fruits such as apples that are used as raw materials for sugar extraction cost a high price of several thousand Longmen coins per kilogram, not to mention sugar-laden biscuits and fruit drinks.

The so-called timely help, just now she and Texas are still uncomfortable because they have not eaten brunch.For Xu You's generous and considerate behavior, even Texas, who was silent behind the angel, changed his eyes slightly.

"Texas, let me just say, how can Mr. Blaine be a bad guy?"

Taking out two bottles of juice from the plastic bag, and handing one of them to the Luper woman who was silent after seeing the man appearing, the energy angel said happily.

"...can be an angel, you wait."

"Huh? What are you doing in Texas?"

"Let me confirm something first."

Texas did not refuse the drink offered by the angel.

But she first stopped Neng Angel who was about to open the bottle and glanced at Xu You, who was still sitting behind the iron gate and smiling at the two of them, and while speaking to Neng Angel, unscrewed the cap of the bottle.

"Hey, Texas, you are..."

"...Okay, no problem, you can drink."

Putting it on the tip of his nose and sniffing it lightly, followed by taking another sip, Texas nodded to the bewildered Neng Angel.

"Hehe, it seems that Miss Texas still doesn't trust me."

Seeing this scene in his eyes, Xu You's mood is still quite complicated.

But it's also understandable. After all, it's Texas, so it's only natural to do this.

Immediately after removing a bag of biscuits from the plastic bag, Texas was going to use her Rooperian senses of smell and taste a priori in the same way.

But at this moment, Xu You's words sounded again. :

"About those bags of biscuits, if you don't want to take the risk again, Miss Texas, you can take out a piece and give it to the next generation to taste."

"Texas, isn't it appropriate to do this? Mr. Bryan's kindness, is it true that we are like this..." At the same time, Energy Angel also hesitated and said.

Obviously, although Xu You has never shown the slightest emotion of mind, but in dealing with people in the world, able angels still understand what is appropriate and what is not.

"...No need, this kind of vacuum-sealed packaging, I believe Mr. Blaine, you don't have so much free time to deal with such troublesome things."

But after hearing what Xu You and Neng Angel said, they fell silent for a while, and Texas put down the biscuit in his hand again, and finally didn't do anything more.

But at this time, Texas turned his eyes to meet Xu You:

"Please explain why you are here, Mr. Blaine. You will not be rewarded for nothing. Since you have put so much effort into gaining our trust, you naturally have something to ask for."

Taking out the pockey chocolate bar box bought by Xu You from the plastic bag, he quickly disassembled it with ease and took out one, Texas held it in his mouth and said.

"However, I still say that things that violate the Penguin Logistics employee code are absolutely impossible for me and Angel. I hope Mr. Blaine understands, otherwise please leave here."

Not at all polite, but still so frank and straightforward.Texas said what she wanted to say, and faced Xu You.

"Miss Texas is really notoriously cautious and unreasonable...I thought our conversation could be easier this time."

Leaning on the handle of the umbrella with both hands, a helpless smile appeared on the corner of Xu You's mouth.How should I put it, this scene makes him always feel that he is a big villain plotting evil, and he is using various methods to intimidate and lure the Penguin logistics two who were locked up for his reasons.

Ah, but "coercion" is not there yet.

"Since Miss Texas has seen my intentions, I don't want to procrastinate too much. I just want to know one thing from the mouth of the two... Oh, it should be Miss Angel, about this production What do you two think of the arrow from Lateran?"

He took out the document report from his pocket and handed it through the iron fence to the inside of the detention room.

"What is this? Hmm...!"

Hearing Xu You read his name, Angel Neng, who was holding a biscuit in his mouth, also looked at the document handed over.But when she saw the pictures and content on it, she was stunned.

how....!

No.30 Chapter [-] Mostima

No.30 Chapter Two

Because of the existence of origin stones, gunpowder weapons are not widely used in the world of Terra.In most cases, a crossbow bolt inlaid with origin stones is far more powerful than a bullet.

So in such an environment, the production of Originium weapons is strictly controlled—just like in the era Xu Youzeng lived in, every bullet produced would be numbered, as long as someone else launched an attack, no matter what They will leave clues on the spot.

Here, this is the direction for Xu You and Chen to determine the identity of the suspect.Follow the clues, as long as the investigation continues like this, even if the specific identity of the suspect cannot be determined in detail, at least his general origin can be understood——

"The numbering system is the unique symbol of [Latland] crossbow bolts."

"Miss Angel, what do you say? I believe that as a Lateran, you must also recognize the origin of this crossbow."

Sitting on the chair in front of the iron fence window in the detention room, looking at the energy angel who was stunned by seeing the contents of the document, Xu You said slowly:

"After investigation by the Guard Bureau, the serial number of this crossbow arrow is the batch produced by the Rutland Civilian Weapons Company last week. If you guessed correctly, there should be more origin stone arrows of this batch in your Penguin Logistics warehouse. Ya?"

Through the analysis of the clues, Xu You already had a rough idea.

The only thing missing now is a proof of identity... That's why Xu You came to see Penguin Logistics again.

"We, Penguin Logistics....um..." opened his mouth, but what the angel wanted to say.

But obviously, looking at Xu You's calm but sharp eyes, Neng Angel still didn't say the words of explanation in the end.

Because as an important employee of Penguin Logistics, she did know that just a few days ago, their Penguin Logistics warehouse secretly received a batch of arms from all over the world for transshipment and sale.

It stands to reason that this is a very common thing, and the Longmen Guards Bureau usually turns a blind eye to their control.Longmen is the world's economic and trade center. As long as the general stability is not affected, it is impossible to completely eradicate underground business. After all, everyone has to make a living.

But now, Xu You, who was attacked as an assistant to Chen, the head of the Guards Bureau, was involved, so the nature was a little different.

"If Ms. Angel doesn't speak, does that mean she has acquiesced? It stands to reason that Penguin Logistics is a law-abiding company in Longmen on weekdays, and the Guard Bureau will never do this."

Xu You shook his head and said:

"But miss, you have also seen that the assailant pointed by this arrow is someone inside your Penguin Logistics. If you don't mind, I hope the two ladies can tell you about the actions of your Penguin Logistics personnel in recent days. trajectory, so that the Guards Bureau can find out the truth as soon as possible."

Having said so much, Xu You just wanted to tell the two members of Penguin Logistics: "The Guard Bureau has obtained substantial evidence of Penguin Logistics' violations. You can see that this matter should be solved quietly in private, or it is better to bring it to the table." .

After all, this is why the Longmen Guards Bureau can still be used as a bargaining chip for managers to maintain order within the complex Longmen—unspoken rules are only unspoken rules after all, and if they are put on the surface, they are too numerous to count.Your own butt is not clean, you deserve it if we caught you.

"..."

After hearing Xu You's words and reading the document, the two of them fell silent together with Texas.

As elite employees of Penguin Logistics, it is impossible for them not to know what the source of the arrow means... and who the attacker who fired the arrow would be, the two of them gradually had a guess in their hearts.

Why would she do such a thing...

"How about it, ladies, do you have any ideas? If the two of you really can't provide any clues, then we can only send someone from the Guard Bureau to search your company's warehouse in person."

Getting up slowly, Xu You looked at the wall clock on the back wall of the room.

"..."

"It seems that I really don't have any impression...Of course, I won't make it difficult for you. Then I won't disturb your time. I wish you a pleasant afternoon."

Seeing that Angel and Texas were still silent, Xu You turned around and tried to leave.

But at this moment, the voice of Texas suddenly sounded:
