“I’ve completely recovered, um, you… can stay. It’s okay.” Even with her free-spirited nature, saying such words made her feel slightly embarrassed.
Witte asked in surprise, “Oh, hasn’t he succeeded yet? Didn’t he already save the woman he loves?” Narrowing his lake-green eyes, he stared intently, waiting for the next image in the mirror. Hehe, how lucky to be able to see such a pleasing scene.
“Saving her is one thing, his calamity is another; the two are unrelated,” the Queen in a silver-white belted robe accentuated her slender and charming figure. Gazing at the bright mirror surface with an explicit scene, her delicate jade-like fingers waved slightly, and the scene instantly disappeared.
Ah, what a pity! “Can he escape death like Qin Luo?”
“Since that woman can understand his words, she should be able to help An Zhang avoid this calamity.”
The Queen’s slender fingers waved again, and the mirror suddenly revealed another scene with a dog and a rat engaged in an intense battle.
Seeing this, Witte was shocked and exclaimed, “Ah, bold rat, daring to challenge the prince! Queen, let me deal with that damned rat.”
The noble and elegant Queen gently shook her head, her diamond earrings swaying and emitting a dazzling brilliance.
“No, although the prince is at a disadvantage, the rat can only scratch him and cannot truly harm his life. You need not worry. Sometimes letting the prince experience defeat is a good lesson. Besides…” Looking at the mirror, she slightly pursed her beautiful lips and smiled, “Can’t you see the child seems to be enjoying himself?”
After carefully observing for a moment, Witte nodded. “It seems so. The Queen is indeed wise.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the noble and elegant Queen stared at the mirror and scolded in her delicate voice—
“Idiot, use your hand to press down the fat rat’s tail. Why are you biting its chubby bottom? How disgusting! Are you an idiot? The fat rat is about to ride on your back. At this moment, you should use a spinning kick to send the fat rat flying, not turn back and grab it. Oh my, what are you doing? Actually getting bitten on the ear and used as a horse…” The Queen gestured and her voice grew increasingly loud.
“Q-Queen?”
“Fool, who told you to speak?”
Ah? “This servant misspoke, this servant is terrified.” Suddenly scolded, Witte hurriedly covered his mouth.
“Shut up, don’t stand there, step hard on the fat rat, quickly, flatten it with one stomp.”
Huh? Lowering his hand, he suddenly realized the Queen was so engrossed watching the prince’s battle with the fat rat that she had forgotten herself.
“Another missed opportunity to catch it. Ah, it jumped on your head, go hit a tree, hit it hard and knock it out, not jumping around randomly, that’s useless. Stupid son, what’s in your brain? Ah, yes, just like this, throw it off, good, press it down, don’t let it escape, very good, it’s already dizzy, take this opportunity to deal with it…”
Waving her hands passionately, the Queen alternated between excitement and indignation. Finally, under the surprised gazes, she came to her senses and immediately composed herself.
Clearing her throat, she elegantly curved a slight smile. “Witte, the prince is fighting an enemy. Why are you so indifferent?”
“I-I…” Unable to understand the Queen’s meaning, Witte was momentarily speechless.
“Or is it that you don’t care about the prince at all, which is why you can remain so calm?”
“No, I certainly care about the prince,” hit with such a accusation, he tensed and to prove his concern, looked at the still-struggling dog and rat in the mirror, and began cheering, “Go, prince, yes, step on it, stomp it hard, send it flying with its guts spilling out. Ah, no, damn rat actually sneak attacking the prince, prince don’t show mercy, use your true skills…”
His excited shouting became increasingly serious.
“Hateful fat rat, so cunning and deceitful. Prince, don’t be polite, strike it so its head bleeds and intestines burst. Yes, step on its tail, don’t let it escape. Ah, it’s playing cute, don’t fall for it…”
Hehe, now he wasn’t the only one who had lost composure.
The Dog God Queen smiled satisfactorily.
With An Zhang’s full support, the operation to search for the bomb terrorist Andrew proceeded very smoothly.
After obtaining precise clues and preparing an ambush for many days, the police mobilized elite forces to conduct a raid in the dark of night.
Under the police’s watertight encirclement, they captured the dissident who intended to disrupt the election. Seeing no escape, the arrogant bomb terrorist Andrew refused to surrender and committed suicide by shooting himself on the spot.
All other accomplices were captured without exception.
The night raid was so successful that the police’s top brass were overjoyed.
At the victory celebration banquet that night, Fang Xinlan was particularly happy. After all, she was the head of this special investigation team. After several glasses of liquor, she became talkative and enthusiastically patted Jin Yuanhao’s shoulder.
“Thanks to you and Shi Xuan, we solved this case so quickly and beautifully. Come, have more drinks. We’re not leaving until we’re drunk. Shi Xuan, you should drink too. Why only fruit juice? That won’t do. You can be considered the biggest contributor to this operation. If not for you, An Zhang would not have unconditionally supported us. Come, I’ll toast you.”
“I can’t drink alcohol,” Shi Xuan politely declined. Being able to bring the bomb terrorist to justice was most gratifying to her, finally allowing her father and two brothers to rest in peace.
“Aiya, you’ve always been straightforward. Why are you being so hesitant today? Having one drink won’t hurt. If you don’t drink, it means you look down on me. Quickly drink this glass.”
“Officer Fang, I really can’t drink alcohol. I’ll replace it with this glass of fruit juice.” She picked up the fruit juice and drank it in one gulp.
She had extremely poor alcohol tolerance, and once during a birthday celebration, she became completely unconscious after drinking just a fruit wine. Afterward, under someone’s repeated instructions and warnings, she dared not touch alcohol again, so she had to refuse firmly, afraid that if she returned home and the person smelled alcohol on her, she would surely be nagged.
”Hey, Shi Xuan, you’re being so unfair, trying to brush me off like this.”
Suddenly, a lazy, magnetic voice interjected—
”Ms. Fang, if you’re not satisfied, I’ll drink this glass on her behalf.”
Fang Xinlan turned around, “Oh, An Zhang, how did you end up here?”
”I’m here to pick up Xuan. It’s getting late. Finish this drink, and we’ll head out first.” Not wanting to waste precious time, An Zhang took the glass from Shi Ying’s hand, drank it in one gulp, and then held her hand, preparing to leave.
”Hey, you can’t just leave like this. I heard you’re planning to get married in the spring. Such a big event requires at least three drinks!” Fang Xinlan, under the influence of alcohol, was still excited and unwilling to let them go.
An Zhang smiled and blocked the drink she was offering, “Ms. Fang, you’re all drunk. Aren’t you afraid of being caught by bloodthirsty media? That might bring you a lot of trouble. Tomorrow’s headline might read—’Police High-Ranking Officials Lead Drinking Revelry Under the Guise of Celebration, Displaying Drunken Behavior.'”
Fang Xinlan’s face twitched, shocked by his words, blinking her alcohol-reddened eyes and shaking her head.
”Surely not. This is a private venue, and today’s a holiday. Unless someone tips them off, they couldn’t possibly discover us.”
