Hello, Arknights

Chapter 262 Check-in

Fortunately, Mostima came.

Ling Dengxian couldn't help but feel lucky, because his brain waves matched those of a certain big cat, and they both thought that the other party would bring the identification of the Rhodes Island team.

"What? Aren't you a consultant?"

"Ah? But you are the captain."

“No one told me about this process before.”

Ling Dengxian didn't even bring the token from Penguin Logistics. In Penguin Logistics, it was like putting the safe key into the safe.

However, Mastema arrived just in time.

"You can still get in if you want. There's no need to worry about it." Mostima smiled and signaled to him that it was nothing. Judging from the expression of the city defense captain, he should still remember who Ling Dengxian was.

"Without the token, you can only apply for a meeting in your personal name. Procedures outside the schedule will delay a lot of things." Ling Dengxian explained awkwardly. Looking back, Huang waved to him with the communicator to indicate that he was already contacting the ship.

"By using the name of Penguin Logistics, we can directly explain to the higher-ups and then just submit the documents later, which saves a lot of effort."

"Aren't you an employee of Penguin Logistics? Where's the token your boss gave you?"

"I can't be forgiven for not bringing that thing, right?"

Ling Dengxian still remembered that the token from Penguin Logistics was unexpectedly serious. It was a formal document, but when necessary, it could be twisted hard and thrown out to be used as a bomb - "Won't it explode in my arms?" Ling Dengxian once asked sincerely.

"Of course, after all, since you were blown away once, Mr. Emperor, you only need to worry about whether you have enough strength when twisting." Archangel replied.

So he felt it was understandable that he did not carry this certificate with him at all times.

After all, when I was in Longmen, I had never encountered a mission that required going abroad like this Penguin Logistics mission.

"Maybe." The fallen angel just continued to smile and handed over his penguin logistics pass.

The city defense captain was a little hesitant to take it. Today was the first time he knew that this thing from Penguin Logistics could explode!

"It won't explode suddenly. Even if you want to twist it, you have to know how to do it." Seeing his fear, Mostima shrugged.

After careful inspection, the group finally passed the inspection smoothly. The infected people in the Rhodes Island team were asked to wear a location bracelet and were released after registering their detailed information.

"Infected people need to apply for registration in advance to enter the central city. Please keep your wristbands under close supervision. If you lose it, you will be asked to go to the Guard Bureau. Detailed regulations will be sent to your terminals by the Longmen Telecom Building later. Groups entering the city will be given a physical code of conduct. Please abide by the order of the New City District and the Source City District. I wish you all the best. Longmen welcomes you." After skillfully instructing on the relevant matters, the city defense captain saluted everyone, then looked at Ling with fear: "Of course, try not to make too much noise. The building materials cleaning team has just rested for a while."

Under everyone's curious gaze, Ling Dengxian nodded awkwardly and asked everyone to follow him. When he turned around, he saw that the defenders were carrying out disinfection work, although there was no risk.

But prejudice persists.

The arrow-shaped tail poked Ling Dengxian, and Mostima moved closer, with his mysterious blue eyes close at hand: "By the way, are you going to bring the people on your side to the dormitory as well?"

"Well, the boss said there's no problem. Texas and the others went on a long trip." Ling Dengxian raised his head slightly, his expression a little unnatural.

"Stay temporarily? But we can't lend our dormitories to them without permission, so we can only bring them to our dormitory on the fourth floor... If there is only one unused room, it will be a bit too crowded, right?"

Ling Dengxian was stunned: "It seems... it is true, has Mr. Chen not moved out yet?"

"No, at least not when I left last time."

"Does she pay the rent?"

"Yes."

"Really?"

"It looks like that."

Seeing the two of them in sync, Provence's tail twitched unnaturally, and when he found that a certain Vayfan was still looking around the dragon gate excitedly, he approached the bagpipe and whispered, "Miss Bagpipe, do you mind?"

"Well, what's the matter?" Bagpipe withdrew his curious gaze, looking puzzled.

"Ah... Ling Dengxian seems to be very close to other girls... Is this how the tail is used..." Provence tried to ask indirectly, while also raising questions in certain areas.

"Is it strange? Is he and I so close, which is different from the others? Normally, no one would pay attention to our relationship, right?" Bagpipe originally wanted to say that it was nothing, but he changed his words and shook his head gently.

"Besides, Mastema is probably very special to him. As for me... I am quite grateful to her."

"grateful?"

"Well, when you feel so helpless, that's when you need warmth the most..."

The girl looked towards the gradually rising sunlight, the light and shadow were divided by the buildings. The boy continued to ask questions in embarrassment, the fallen angel lightly lifted his chin and smiled.

“It’s certainly not anyone’s fault that I didn’t show up when he needed me, but it’s also a pity, and she gave me such warmth…how could I mind?

"If we meet again, if he... anyway, I don't know, if the boy I picked up in the Victorian countryside no longer smiles when we meet again... will he and I still walk the same path. So..."

After saying this, the Vaifan girl smiled brightly and said, "I am sincerely grateful to her."

Ling Dengxian turned around and saw the bagpipe and my smile, and felt a little curious: "What are you playing? I want to listen too."

"It's a secret, just mind your own business." Bagpipe smiled frankly.

"How come Dizi has learned this trick too..." Ling Dengxian couldn't help but sigh, "Not cute at all." Mostima looked back, the smile in his eyes seemed to circle a few more times, deepening a lot:

"Who said that girls who are attentive are the cutest?"

After talking in circles for a long time, Mostima finally told Ling Dengxian that there were actually some extra rooms in Penguin Logistics, but they just needed to be cleaned temporarily.

"Why didn't you say so earlier... I was planning to stay overnight at the Imperial Guards Bureau."

"You don't have to go that far. If you really can't... come and stay in my room for a few nights? Just sleep on the floor."

"No thanks. There are still beds in the Guards Bureau anyway."

Ling Dengxian has become immune to Mostima's superficial teasing. After all, Mostima will never go too far.

Well, to put it bluntly, she probably wouldn't dare to do it for real.

"Well, it shouldn't take much time if we all work together." As they were talking, the group finally arrived at the Unicorn Apartment.

"Do you want to disturb Mr. Yis?" Ling Dengxian looked at Mostima, implying that he was asking her whether she wanted to inform him.

"You've already told the boss, so there's no need." Mostima swiped the door opener. "Ms. Chen should have gone out to work by now. When the room is cleaned, just tell her so she can prepare."

"That's fine... but eight people need four rooms, right? Are there really enough rooms?"

"As I said, there are exactly four rooms including yours."

"It seems like my room is still unprotected..." Ling Dengxian's eyes twitched.

"Um, can I squeeze in with Xiao Mo...right?" Bagpipe asked cautiously and tentatively.

"No problem." Mostima smiled. Ling Dengxian leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Uh, don't we have to worry about that If You Are the One lady?"

"It wouldn't be a bad idea for her to stay in a hotel occasionally." Mastema continued to smile.

A certain Li Boli wearing a radio in the distance took a deep breath and suppressed his emotions: "So your frequent return to Longmen is not good for me!"

Seeing that Ling Dengxian and Mostima had finished their conversation, Huang came over and saluted him in a formal manner: "Captain, our ship has contacted them. The doctor said that he guessed that you might make all kinds of strange mistakes, so he set out early in the morning to find us with the documents. I think he will arrive in a few hours."

"…She knew why she didn't remind him…"

"I heard from Amiya that she had been planning to take this opportunity to go on a paid trip... She was just waiting for me to leave. She would report it as soon as I ran out of reach."

"She alone?"

"Lin Guang will lead a team to be responsible for the doctor's personal safety."

"..."

Huang waved his hand: "Don't worry, the doctor and the others will probably take care of their own food and lodging."

"But I don't have a place to live..."

"My room. I've been here before. You shouldn't think it's too small."

"Before? Oh, that time in Ursus? Now - isn't it Texas later?!" Ling Dengxian was shocked by a certain Rupert who suddenly interrupted the topic, and Mostima also looked surprised.

"Didn't you leave Longmen?"

Rupert, who had his hair re-streaked red on the inside, nodded and pulled the suitcase in front of him. "That's right, originally. We had already set out, but not long ago the boss suddenly called me and asked me to come back. I didn't understand why at first, but now I know."

"So you guys just set out?"

"Not really. I've already completed the first order. Now it's the second order, which is also an overseas mission, but the route is close to Longmen, so I came back." Texas's eyebrows were indeed a little tired, and he raised his head slightly. "So, you should have no objection to sleeping at my place, right? You."

Agorwolper and Filin, holding their own weapons, watched Mou Ling's negotiations with different feelings. The other two, except Skadi, looked at each other, feeling speechless.

"Hey, Baige, which room are we going to live in? I heard you ask before, so it should need to be cleaned, right?" After looking at the layout of the hall in front of the apartment, Sartel glanced in his direction. After expressing his contempt in his heart, he still became concerned about the accommodation issue.

"I found the cleaning tools." Provence smiled at everyone.

"Then let's clean up first." Ling Dengxian rolled up his sleeves and smiled at the four girls around him, "You can't be lazy as a captain."

"Texas is going to Hugh—"

"I'm here too. I'm more familiar with it than you." The girl's words were crisp and irrefutable, and she was still so vivid.
