Chapter 50

After all that talk, it was just to correct the way she was addressed...

Despite not having met yet, Moyou's first impression of Liz had already become very profound.

It had a somewhat neurotic flavor to it.

It made him think of people like Cisse and Paris Tong without realizing it.

Speaking of which—

With Liz's style of speaking, if she were to defend in court as a lawyer, wouldn't she send the defendant to prison herself before the opposing lawyer even had a chance to make a move?

A fleeting thought left Moyou with a tinge of regret.

Given that there was another "watchful" aunt beside him, Moyou had to introduce himself to Liz first and quickly said, "Do you remember me, Liz? I'm Qido's nephew, Kester Binsi. I'm on a spaceship heading to Laxiang City, and I have something I want to ask you for help with."

Considering that he had previously given Biscuit a fake name, Moyou could only use the name Kester Binsi in their conversation.

At the same time, by mentioning his relationship with Qido, he briefly conveyed key information to Liz, hoping she would cooperate.

"Master's nephew? Oh, I remember. When Master brought you to my place to play, you once got a bad stomach and accidentally soiled your pants. I couldn't forget that even if I wanted to."

In a law firm, a young woman with dark circles under her eyes sat at a desk with a lamp on, writing Moyou's name on a piece of paper while speaking into her phone with a blank expression.

This phone number was for her private use, known only to a few people, including her master Qido and a few close friends.

To be able to call this number and mention Qido, the person on the other end must be Moyou, whom her master had mentioned to her recently.

The reason she fabricated the story about "soiling his pants" in their conversation wasn't entirely because Moyou had called her aunt, but because Moyou had used a fake name when introducing himself.

Whether this approach was meaningful or not,

Assigning a past experience to a fake name and identity could enhance its credibility in various ways.

It was harmless if not needed, and beneficial if it was.

Anyway, no matter what, she could indulge in a bit of verbal satisfaction, so why not?

In front of the public phone on the spaceship,

"Yes, I caused you trouble back then."

Moyou naturally accepted the fabricated experience Liz had given him and smiled in response.

Liz's voice then came through the phone, "No problem. What did you want to ask me for help with just now?"

"It's like this, my aunt is a two-star professional hunter and is usually very busy. My spaceship will arrive at the Laxiang City airport around 6 PM. Could you come and pick me up, Liz?"

"6 PM, got it. No problem, I'll be waiting for you at the airport before you land."

Liz readily agreed.

"Thanks for the trouble, Liz."

"Family doesn't need to be so formal. Is there anything else?"

"No."

"Alright, I have some work to do. Talk to you later."

"Okay, Liz."

The call ended.

Moyou slowly hung up the receiver.

Behind him, Biscuit looked surprised.

It really was Qido from the Association, so...

Moyou turned around, and Biscuit immediately switched roles, looking at Moyou with a curious expression.

"Brother Kester, what does it feel like to soil your pants?"

"It's sticky and very uncomfortable."

Moyou calmly and seriously satisfied Biscuit's curiosity, hoping that Qido's name would be enough to deter Biscuit from trying to get the Rat Pearl.

Without waiting for Biscuit's reaction, Moyou suggested, "Biscuit, let me take you back to your room."

"Okay."

Biscuit didn't refuse this time but showed a reluctant attitude.

Moyou smiled at Biscuit, thinking that the method had worked. At least until the spaceship landed, he wouldn't have to deal with Biscuit's纠缠.

However—

Moyou's approach of using his conversation with Liz to naturally bring up Qido's name had indeed been effective, but it only made Biscuit give up on using "improper means" to get the Rat Pearl.

She would probably try to纠缠Moyou until she got the Rat Pearl.

...

In Laxiang City, on Yujin Street, at the Yubian Law Firm,

Liz stretched, revealing her graceful figure.

"It seems he's in trouble."

Murmuring to herself, Liz picked up her phone, opened Qido's contact, and started typing a message.

"Master, Moyou contacted me. He's on a spaceship heading to Laxiang City and is expected to arrive this evening. He seems to have encountered some trouble on the spaceship, but from his response, it doesn't seem to be a big issue. Please call me back as soon as you see this message."

After sending the message, Liz put down her phone and looked at the sofa in the reception area of the office.

The faint moonlight slanted through the window, illuminating half of the sofa.

On the other half of the sofa, which the moonlight didn't reach, sat a person wrapped in a cloak, with only a pair of large, dark eyes visible.

Liz crossed her arms, slightly lifting her chest, and said, "Sambica, I'll be working until around 7 AM. After that, I'll grab a quick breakfast at a street stall and go back to my apartment to catch some sleep.

"If everything goes well, I'll sleep until 2 PM. Considering there won't be much to do then, I'll go to the coffee shop near the square to read a book. Oh, you heard that, right? I have to go to the airport at 6 PM to pick up a cute little brother.

"Considering it will be dinner time, I'll probably leave room in my stomach and have dinner with the little brother. Yes, what I mean is—"

Liz stared at the only visible eye of Sambica and smiled, "I'll be busy then, and I don't want to get involved in your affairs. Don't try to meddle in my work."

"..."

The person wrapped in a cloak, called Sambica, remained silent for several seconds before slowly speaking, "The existence of G-drug will cause trouble for many people, Liz. You shouldn't aid in such wrongdoing."

The voice was light and pleasant, but very soft, giving a sense of weakness.

"Sambica, you're not new to Laxiang City... Forget it, do as you please. I won't repeat myself a third time, even if Master comes, don't think you can meddle in my work."

Liz finished speaking and ignored Sambica, sitting back at her desk to continue working.

Sambica quietly sat on the sofa, silently watching Liz, who was busy working.
