Chapter 86 Getting Through the Long Downtime
Chapter 86 Getting Through the Long Downtime
"Uh..." Bronya silently took a few steps back, unconsciously moving away from Xing.
I never expected there would be children hiding in the trash can.
She continued searching carefully, and suddenly noticed something amiss in a pile of miscellaneous items nearby.
A corner of clothing was clearly visible among the pile of junk.
Bronya immediately smiled and quietly moved closer.
Hook, hiding in the pile of debris, thought he was well hidden and was feeling sorry for the children who had already been caught.
But just then, a series of clanging sounds rang out.
"Caught one!"
After a dizzying moment, Hook was already in Bronya's hands.
"Huh, huh?" Hook looked at the elegant older woman in front of her with a blank expression. She hadn't figured out how she had been captured.
"Caught another one?" March 7th immediately came closer upon hearing the voice.
Hook, not to be outdone, said, "If you really want to catch me, you must answer one question correctly."
Xing said blankly, "Okay, go ahead and ask."
March 7th said helplessly, "What? We've got you caught! You really want to answer the questions?"
"Is that right, Lord Black Hook?"
"Damn it! As the leader of the Mole Party, I've actually fallen into the hands of you villains!" Hook squirmed in Bronya's arms.
"Do whatever you want with me, punish me or whatever you want!"
March 7th murmured, speechless, "Why are you so dramatic...?"
"So, there's one left..."
Bronya put Hook down and then looked around.
Both children have been found, leaving only one.
At that moment, Hook shouted, "Julian, you'd better hide well! We can't let outsiders look down on the Mole Party!"
"Yes, Lord Hook!" A voice suddenly came from the crowd in the distance.
March 7 and Bronya exchanged a glance, then walked over helplessly and placed their hands on the shoulders of an adult man.
"Got you?"
"Huh?" Xing was still out of it.
How did they manage to catch them?
“Nonsense! Have you ever seen an 8-year-old child this old?” the man immediately retorted in a high-pitched voice.
“Your voice just now gave you away,” Bronya said, looking at him intently.
"Who, who said that was the sound I made just now?" the man denied.
On March 7th, something suddenly occurred to him: "He may look like an adult, but his wisdom is like a child's..."
“There’s only one truth: the cunning frog has been touching your belly all along!” the man said, but his voice changed back to that of a child.
"Alright, confirmed, it's you." March 7th revealed a triumphant expression.
"Oh no!!! I wish I hadn't said anything! I, 'Thousand-Faced Julian,' have lived up to my name, I'm a disgrace to the boss!"
The man suddenly turned back into a child with a "bang".
Bronya watched this scene, pondering carefully: "Magic? How did this happen?"
Julian walked up to Hook and said guiltily, "I'm so sorry, Boss Hook! I failed..."
Hook glared at March 7 and the others, and said menacingly, "Damn it! You actually managed to see through Julian's disguise, who are you people?!"
"Um...didn't you expose yourself?" March 7 said helplessly.
"Oh? Really?" Hook scratched his head sheepishly.
“Alright, now that you’re in the dark, Lord Hook, can you tell us your secret?” March 7 said, hands on his hips.
"Hmm... The leader of the Mole Gang, a man of his word!" Hook patted his chest.
"That pretty older sister with white hair was taken out of town by the uncle with blue hair. It seems she went to the mechanical settlement."
"A mechanical settlement?" March 7th and Bronya asked in confusion.
"Oh no, something bad is going to happen," Bronya said seriously.
When she was still in the Upper City, she vaguely saw some ciphers, and the Mechanical Settlement was a camp composed entirely of rebel robots.
Eve was taken there; who knows what might happen to her!
Despicable! That hateful blue-haired criminal! How could he be so heartless as to do such a thing!
Xing and March 7 nodded in agreement. "Yeah, if we take Eve to a place like that, Sambo is probably going to get into trouble."
"Huh?" Bronya looked bewildered.
"No, we have to find them quickly, or Sambo will be in danger!" March 7 said anxiously.
"Huh?" Bronya's expression became even more bewildered.
Just then, Sambo's voice suddenly came.
"Don't worry, everyone, how could I, Sambo, possibly be in danger?"
Everyone immediately turned around and saw Eve, dressed in white, standing next to Sambo, whose face was bruised and swollen.
The contrast between the two suddenly feels somewhat unreal.
"Eve! You're back!" March 7th was overjoyed.
Bronya was relieved to see that Eve was alright.
"Sambo, didn't you say you weren't in danger? Then what's this on your face?" Xing looked at Sambo's face with suspicion.
The area was covered in bruises, indicating that the person who did it used considerable force.
Sangbo scratched the back of his head and said awkwardly, "Haha, it's nothing, it's nothing."
"I fell down by myself."
"Oh dear, I really did fall down without even realizing it! My old, calloused legs are killing me!"
At this moment, Eve looked at Sambo with disdain and did not say anything.
The injuries on his face weren't from a fall at all; the truth is...
This old bastard has dirty hands; he wanted to steal Eve's Winter City Shield, and besides that, he also had his eye on Eve's leg ring.
After being caught, Eve gave him a growth gift package, burying him in the ground so he could smoothly get through the overgrown period.
