Chapter 192 Yes, it's very cute.
Chapter 192 Yes, it's very cute.
"Young man, come with us?" Tang De said to Zhang Huo with a smile, while Tang Xuan, with a cold expression, pulled Zhang Huo out by the handcuffs.
“No…” Zhang Huo was stunned.
He wasn't speaking Mandarin, so Tang De and Tang Xuan didn't understand him and didn't pay much attention to what he was saying. They simply led him quickly to the convoy.
There were few people near the convoy. Long Xiaoxiao was still staring intently at the direction where the stone statue had been smashed. He turned his head and glanced at the Chinese team. Tang Xuan and Tang De, along with a strange man, were very conspicuous.
"Uncle," Long Xiaoxiao called out to the system in confusion, "what are they doing?"
The system followed Long Xiaoxiao's gaze and paused for a few seconds after seeing the figure of its familiar old partner. Then it said urgently, "Why was he taken away... Xiaoxiao, that man's name is Zhang Huo. He is a reinforcement sent by headquarters to help us catch fugitives."
"Then why did they take him away?" Long Xiaoxiao was stunned.
The system was also puzzled. After thinking for several seconds, it finally said simply, "I don't know either. Maybe there's some misunderstanding. It's okay, just go and get him out later. Just say he's your friend."
Long Xiaoxiao nodded, seemingly confused.
At this moment, Zhang Huo was taken to the car. Tang Xuan and Tang De sat in the front seat. After exchanging a glance, they turned to look at Zhang Huo with serious expressions.
Based on the energy fluctuations they sensed from Zhang Huo just now, the recent events must all be related to him.
Zhang Huo felt uneasy under their gazes, and not knowing what had happened, nor could he understand their language, so he let out a long sigh, his expression utterly helpless.
People at the time-space transfer station are bound by rules and cannot cause large-scale harm to the inhabitants of the world. Zhang Huo simply changed to a more comfortable sitting position and quietly waited for Tang Xuan and Tang De to make their move.
"Did you tamper with the stone statue?" Tang Xuan used a translator to translate the question into the local language and handed it to Zhang Huo.
Unfortunately, Zhang Huo still couldn't understand. He could tell that Tang Xuan wanted to communicate with him, so he pointed to the translator, shook his head, and indicated that he didn't know the language.
Tang Xuan looked at him with a puzzled expression, then thought for a moment and repeated herself in another language.
Zhang Huo was helpless; he shook his head after hearing each sentence.
Tang Xuan tried almost every language in the world. Seeing that Zhang Huo's blank expression didn't seem fake, Tang Xuan turned to look at Tang De, frowned slightly, and looked somewhat puzzled.
Tang De leaned closer and whispered, "Is he an idiot?"
Tang Xuan's initial confusion turned into speechlessness. She glared at Tang De in annoyance, then turned to look at Zhang Huo, scanning him up and down several times.
Although Zhang Huo had a carefree and easygoing demeanor, he certainly didn't seem like a bad person. At most, he seemed like a street urchin, not someone who could do something so earth-shattering.
However, Tang Xuan was still very cautious. After discussing it with Tang De for a few minutes, she decided to take him back to China. To this end, she even planned to take him to the local government to check his identity.
They had just gotten off the car with Zhang Huo when Long Xiaoxiao, who had been waiting for a long time without any movement, noticed their presence. After thinking for a moment, she greeted the system and then rushed in their direction.
Seeing this, the system quickly turned off the projection while Long Xiaoxiao was still in the clouds. To the people below, it looked as if Long Xiaoxiao had suddenly emerged from the clouds.
When Tang De noticed that the light above had suddenly been blocked, Long Xiaoxiao had already swiftly landed in front of them.
"Azure Dragon God?" Tang Xuan was taken aback.
Tang De reacted quickly, immediately moving closer with a fawning expression.
"Lord Azure Dragon God! Oh dear, did you come here specifically to find us?" Tang De asked.
Long Xiaoxiao was already quite used to Tang De's excessive enthusiasm. She nodded slightly and then turned her gaze to Zhang Huo behind them.
Zhang Huo also carefully examined Long Xiaoxiao with curiosity in his eyes. There weren't many non-human hosts in the Time and Space Administration Bureau, and even fewer dragons. They were usually powerful and didn't need to exchange anything with the Time and Space Administration Bureau.
When they first learned that their old colleague had been assigned a dragon host, they were incredibly envious, thinking that this mission would be an easy one. But when the mission began, they found out that the host was actually a child with the mind of a five-year-old.
Initially, System 0027 harbored deep resentment and spent his free time like a ghost ranting and raving about headquarters on complaint websites. However, before long, he became a stay-at-home dad who claimed that "my child could be a child model."
Now facing off against this little kid who had bewitched his colleague, Zhang Huo stared at him curiously for a long time.
“He is my friend,” Long Xiaoxiao said in a low voice.
Zhang Huo's eyebrows twitched; this didn't sound like a cute little dragon at all.
Upon hearing this, Tang De and Tang Xuan paused for a few seconds before turning to look at Zhang Huo. Tang De tremblingly pointed a finger at Zhang Huo and asked blankly, "Him?"
“Yes.” Long Xiaoxiao said, nodding in affirmation.
Tang De, Tang Xuan: "..."
It's over.
Tang Xuan decisively turned around, took out the key, and unlocked Zhang Huo's handcuffs. She then took a step back, her previously wary expression turning respectful: "I'm sorry."
After saying that, Tang Xuan turned around and bowed to Long Xiaoxiao: "I'm sorry, Lord Azure Dragon God. We mistakenly thought he was the instigator of this incident, so we did some disrespectful things. We are really sorry."
Long Xiaoxiao shook her head and said nonchalantly, "It's okay."
After saying that, Long Xiaoxiao turned to look at Zhang Huo, swam up to him, and lowered her head slightly, gesturing for him to climb onto her back.
Zhang Huo didn't stand on ceremony. Seeing Long Xiaoxiao's gesture, he climbed up without hesitation.
As soon as he went up, Zhang Huo heard a very familiar voice.
"You actually came up here after I told you to?"
The tone is joking.
Recognizing that this was System 0027, Zhang Huo relaxed and said with a smile, "0027, is this the kid you post about in your status every day? How come... he's so big?"
When Zhang Huo first read the system's description, he thought it was a small, soft little girl.
When Tang De and Tang Xuan saw Zhang Huo climb onto Long Xiaoxiao's back without any hesitation and chatter away with a smile, they felt a great sense of awe.
If he's actually a friend of the Azure Dragon God, could he also be a deity?
The system, displeased by Zhang Huo's words, said, "What are you saying? Isn't Da Da cute? Our Xiao Xiao is cute no matter what!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Long Xiaoxiao turned to look at him, her big eyes blinking rapidly. Zhang Huo swallowed back the sarcasm that was on the tip of his tongue.
"Hmm...it seems quite cute."
