Chapter 219: Ch’en: I’ll top your lungs
Chapter 219: Ch’en: I’ll top your lungs! Lungmen slang!
"Ch’en-senpai is really something; she always charges so fast." Hoshiguma massaged her forehead, her exquisite and beautiful face full of helplessness. Her naturally falling green long hair swayed in the wind, and a single horn grew on her right forehead. With a tall figure, she wore a set of black leather clothes and boots, with her jacket casually tied around her waist. She held a triangular bladed shield, looking quite unrestrained and fierce.
Her speech had a rational and calm feeling, completely different from the inherent ferocity emanating from other Oni. That being said, as an elite operator of the Lungmen Guard Bureau’s Special Task Force, how could she just watch her superior fight alone?
"Suppress them!" Hoshiguma led the other police officers and confronted these gangsters with Ch’en.
Tens of minutes later, more than twenty people were successively escorted into Guard Bureau vehicles. As the last person was brought onto the car and the car door closed, it also signified the perfect completion of this special operation. She signaled all the cars to return to the Guard Bureau.
Ch’en and Hoshiguma each got on their police motorcycles and put on their helmets. During this time, Ch’en was still cursing, her blue-purple dragon tail slapping against the motorcycle. "A bunch of punks, daring to smuggle Originium! Lungmen slang, don’t you know Lungmen’s laws?"
Don’t they know what Originium is? How dare they smuggle it so recklessly! Ch’en’s fiery temper was something Hoshiguma, who had worked with Ch’en for a long time, was already accustomed to. She offered comfort. "Ch’en-senpai, don’t be angry. At least we took them all down before they could cause any significant harm."
"Alas..." Ch’en sighed dejectedly. "Crime has become much more frequent recently. When will Lungmen truly be free of chaos?"
Hoshiguma also couldn’t provide an answer to this. She understood that Ch’en-senpai had always strived to make Lungmen stable. However, Hoshiguma saw more than Ch’en. This kind of peace and stability was extremely extravagant, even difficult to achieve.
Hoshiguma herself was once a member struggling to survive in Lungmen, a member of the underworld. In terms of understanding Lungmen, she far surpassed Ch’en. The underworld, the legitimate world, politics, economy, education, diplomacy, and so on—she saw all aspects of Lungmen. Coupled with the existence of Lungmen’s Slums and Infected, the effort required to make this city truly peaceful and stable was immense.
"Vroom!" Amidst her melancholy, Ch’en had already started her motorcycle. Her hand, poised to twist the throttle, suddenly stopped. She abruptly asked Hoshiguma, "Hoshiguma, can you see that thing in front?"
"Huh?" Hoshiguma looked forward. Besides the road, there was only a road sign, nothing else. "See anything?" she asked, puzzled.
But even more puzzled was Ch’en. A very conspicuous light screen suddenly appeared before her eyes, yet Hoshiguma couldn’t see it.
Ren: "Welcome, both of you, to the Doomsday Chat Group. This is the introduction to the Doomsday Chat Group, please read it yourselves."
Unable to accurately determine their identities at first glance, Ren first gave a welcoming ceremony.
Ren: "Doomsday Chat Group Introduction Announcement"
March 7th: "When did you make an introduction?"
Ren: "Not long ago. I put it on the announcement, so every group member who enters can directly read the Chat Group’s introduction announcement to understand, saving us time explaining."
Nami: "You should have done this a long time ago."
Emilia: "I took a look, Ren-kun’s introduction is very detailed about the Chat Group."
Saeko Busujima: "Indeed. If they still can’t believe it after reading this, then they can only verify it themselves."
Although Ch’en’s temper was fiery, she wasn’t mindlessly reckless. Before understanding the situation, she chose to wait and see. Following the information, she clicked on the Doomsday Chat Group’s introduction announcement. The more she read, the more shocked she became. Doomsday? Different worlds? Abilities, transmigration, and various other things made it difficult for her to determine the reality of the screen before her. Ch’en’s eyebrows furrowed.
Rice Noodle Rolls: "Are you joking? Or are you trying to scheme something against Lungmen with this special item?"
Lungmen? Ren blinked. In Lungmen, she was also called Rice Noodle Rolls. He seemed to know who this was: Lungmen Guard Bureau Senior Superintendent, Ch’en.
Exusiai: "Lungmen?"
Rice Noodle Rolls: "Exusiai? You’re that troublemaker from Penguin Logistics."
Aqua: "Looks like Exu’s acquaintance, Exu, quickly help me proselytize!"
Exusiai: "Uh... proselytizing is out. Although I’m an angel, I’m not good at that. I’d be happy to bomb things with East Wind missiles though."
Aqua: "Bombing? Are you a Crimson Demon too?"
Exusiai: "Ah, this... don’t talk about that! Rice Noodle Rolls, who are you, after all? This strange name, not familiar at all, but you seem very familiar with me."
Ch’en: "I’ll top your lungs! *Lungmen vulgarity! What Rice Noodle Rolls, I’m Ch’en, do you think I’m familiar or not? Is this something you Penguin Logistics made? I think it’s necessary to invite you to the Guard Bureau for a cup of tea right now."
Ren twitched his mouth. This Lungmen vulgarity, this famous Ch’en—it was truly Ch’en.
"!!!" In Penguin Logistics, Exusiai, wearing a short-sleeved top and hot pants, lying on the sofa with her belly and navel exposed, suddenly sat up. "Ch’en?!"
Croissant, the bread-person also wearing a short-sleeved top but only underwear, leaned in. "Why are you suddenly calling Ch’en Sir’s name, you made me think we were going to get arrested again."
Texas, eating Pocky and playing on her phone, also looked up at Exusiai. Penguin Logistics had been arrested by Ch’en too many times. A large part of it was because Texas was speeding and racing.
Exusiai scratched the back of her head, chuckling. "Ahaha, it’s nothing, I just dreamed of being arrested by Ch’en Sir, and it scared me." With a nervous heart, Exusiai put her attention back on the Chat Group.
Exusiai: "Cough cough cough, I just drank yesterday, so I won’t drink today. Definitely next time."
Ch’en: "You still want a next time?"
Exusiai: "Slip of the tongue, slip of the tongue, Ch’en Sir, I promise there won’t be a next time!"
Facing Ch’en Sir, Exusiai was as timid as a mouse seeing a cat.
Tushan Honghong: "Sister Exu seems very afraid of this Ch’en."
Nami: "Hard to believe... the fearless Exu would be so well-behaved."
Rory Takakura: "Is Ch’en Exu’s superior?"
Tingyun: "I think this reaction isn’t like facing a superior, but rather similar to criminals on the Xianzhou facing Cloud Knights."
Ren: "Tingyun might be right."
Platelet: "Eh! Did Sister Exu do something bad?"
Ch’en: "Hmph! Those troublemakers from Penguin Logistics, always speeding or racing, and some of the time causing destruction in Lungmen!"
Ch’en: "As a Superintendent of the Lungmen Guard Bureau, I wish I could wipe out Penguin Logistics in one go."
Kiana: "Racing in the city every day... Is Exusiai really that amazing?"
Chito: "Oh, oh, I understand. Ch’en is a police officer, and Sister Exu is a criminal."
Tingyun: "It seems my feeling was really correct."
Furina: "Police officers apprehend criminals, upholding the fairness and justice of the law. Has Exusiai already been judged?"
Exusiai: "No! I haven’t! It wasn’t me! It was all Texas driving the car!"
Texas indeed liked fast cars and racing. Sometimes, when she, Croissant, and Empty were in the car, they would be thrown up by Texas’s wild driving skills.
