Chapter 135 Concern and Vigilance
Chapter 135 Concern and Vigilance
"...Well, that's it, Sister Susan." Seth leaned back on the bed, looking at the notebook spread out on his knees. Every piece of information on it was obtained from Bai Yu and Fu Fu today, and then Seth sorted and classified it according to the criminal investigation and case-solving process.
Although Seth's brain was filled with a lot of unexpected information at noon today, which made him absent-minded the whole afternoon, he still studied hard and studied cases seriously, and successfully digested and absorbed this information.
"Sister Susan, I still think that since you care about Xiaobai and the others, you should ask them about these matters.
I always feel like I'm talking bad about people behind their backs." Seth rubbed the tip of his tail, which was a little bald, a little depressed.
It is the season for Xiren to shed their fur, and today Baiyu unconsciously pulled his tail hair repeatedly in the same place, resulting in a bald spot on the tip of his tail.
"Hey, if Xiaobai and the other two were willing to tell me, I wouldn't have to bother you, Seth, to find out for me.
Every time I asked, that brat Xiaobai would say something like, "It's not convenient to talk about it, and he doesn't want to lie to me, so he can't tell me." "He doesn't want their affairs to involve me," and he would use these excuses to brush me off.
As expected, you young people are better at communicating.
Sister, I've made note of this.
Seth, thank you for doing me this favor. If you need my help again, just let me know.
Although I don’t know where you will be assigned after graduation.
But even as a police officer, things like "connections" and information networks are very important.
At least when investigating a case or gathering gossip, there is a big difference between being truly willing to help with information and just doing it to get by.
Okay, I won’t pollute the ears of a good kid like you with this kind of “dirty” unspoken rules between adults. I’m hanging up first.
I'll keep an eye on the "brother" that Xiaobai and the others are talking about."
“…Well, I’ll also ask my brother to help me find some clues.
Goodbye, Sister Susan." Seth hung up the phone and looked sideways at the moon outside the window with a gloomy look.
"In the memory, Bai Yu, holding Fu Fu's hand and walking in front of Seth, said to him calmly: Seth, I know it was actually Susan who asked you to ask us about the past.
There are some things I really don't know how to talk to Susan about.
So today, I'd like to trouble you to convey my message.
But please don't tell her some things. Susan already worries enough about us.
It's the past, and talking about it will only make her sad for us.
Anyway, that’s all in the past, and we should always look forward, right? (Laughs)”
"...Why can't people who clearly care about each other talk things out face to face?" Seth was a little confused, and his pointed ears drooped in frustration.
What he heard today was quite confusing to Seth, who had not yet left school.
He originally thought that Xiaobai and Fufu had simply lost their families and were taken in by the kind sheriff Miss Susan.
Out of concern, Susan asked him to help find out about Xiaobai and the others' past, but she ended up hearing a bizarre and complicated story.
Xiaobai and Fufu, who are as close as twins, are not actually siblings! Moreover, they haven't known each other for very long.
What kind of person is this "brother" they all talk about, with completely different behaviors?!
Fufu said that her brother not only saved her, but also took care of them both very gently.
But Xiaobai had never even seen his face and didn't know his name.
"Fufu said confidently: Brother is brother? If brother doesn't say his name, then it doesn't matter!
Anyway, my brother is a really nice guy! Even if you're a newbie, you're not allowed to slander him!!"
"Alas... I am still too weak and can't help at all. If it was my brother who officially became the sheriff, he should be able to see more information!" Seth scratched his hair and thought a little discouraged.
Pah pah—Seth slapped his face hard and encouraged himself: “No! Seth!
You can't give up so easily!
You aspire to become an excellent sheriff like your brother, so how can you be discouraged by a little setback?!
Cheer up!
Even if I can't do it now, it doesn't mean I can't do it in the future. I will definitely help Xiaobai find his family!!
I, Seth, the future outstanding sheriff! I will definitely do what I say! ! "
"Seth? Why are you shouting so late at night?"
“Ah?! Ah, that…
Mom~ I didn’t shout anything, I went to sleep right away.
You should also go to bed early and stop watching TV. Good night, Mom. ” Sai·Future Sheriff·Si, whose fighting spirit had just been ignited, was now extinguished by his mother.
After all, as capable as his brother is, he has to go to bed at a certain time in front of his mother.
The moon hangs high in the sky, calmly and gently casting its bright moonlight on all those who are immersed in the sleepless night.
After Susan hung up the phone, she let out a long sigh. The smoke from the cigarette at her fingertips was like her thoughts, drifting and dispersing at the touch of a finger. She couldn't grasp any key points.
Just like the unfortunate child she was worried about!
The closer we get, the more mysteries we discover about the two children.
As a seasoned sheriff, Susan didn't really have to dig into Bai Yu and Fu Fu's past.
In New Eridu, there are too many people with secrets.
For many things, pretending not to know is the best choice to maintain balance.
However, Susan could not ignore the changes in Bai Yu and Fu Fu.
Thinking of the increasingly dangerous aura he smelled from Bai Yu and Fu Fu's personality becoming noticeably calmer and quieter.
Susan became increasingly worried that something might have happened to the two of them, but because they didn't want to trouble her, they chose to solve the problem themselves, thus going astray.
These two children are gifted geniuses. Whether it was their instructor Brand in the training camp or the teachers in the police academy now, they have praised Susan more than once for their rapid progress.
But the more talented a person is, the more destructive the damage to [order] will be if he takes the wrong path.
So every time Susan heard such words, she felt proud of the two of them, but also became more and more worried.
As their trusted, essentially guardian, Susan wanted to get to know them better.
As a sheriff, Susan must also be vigilant and eliminate in advance the temptations that may lead these two outstanding children astray.
"...'Brother'?" Susan extinguished her half-smoked cigarette, stared at the moon with a piercing gaze, and said with a firm expression, "Then let me see what kind of person this so-called 'brother' is."
Small Theater
Susan's mother: I want to see who is corrupting my child! (Anger value UP↑)
Fu Fu: I want to report it! Xiao Bai is the one who chose to be a bad person!
Bai Yu: ...Don't mess with me!? This part is not written in my script?!
Director! Help! (Erkang hand)
Radish: (He takes the pot and runs away)
