Shen Tang felt the atmosphere was a bit awkward and added a piece of braised pork rib to Yin Luo’s plate, "Ah Luo, try this, it also tastes good."
Yin Luo: Alright, alright, you’re using me as a buffer, huh?
She coughed softly, sneaked a glance at Yue Lin, who was silently sitting across with a stern face, and said in a low voice with an implied meaning, "This hotel is part of a nationwide chain, the Royal City also has a headquarters. I remember the captain really likes the braised pork ribs here..."
Jiang Mu, seeing that Yue Lin hadn’t moved his chopsticks, hurriedly and diligently added a piece to his plate, "Yes, Captain, you’ve been busy the whole night; you should eat a bit, tell me what you want, and I’ll get it for you!"
Yue Lin’s brow twitched slightly, and he glanced at him lightly.
Jiang Mu shivered, the Captain’s expression didn’t look touched at all.
In any case, this meal ended in an indescribably awkward atmosphere.
After eating, it was time to get back to business.
Yin Luo and the others had already understood the course of events.
Initially, today was supposed to be the day the team returned to the Royal City, but due to last night’s unexpected situation, the itinerary would likely be delayed by a day.
Yue Lin spoke, "Shou Jin’s identity is too dangerous right now. If we want to take him out, we must get him a new identity."
Shen Tang worriedly asked, "Will it be very troublesome?"
For someone like her, arranging an identity isn’t difficult, but Jin is a wanted criminal known throughout the police force. He’s likely to be recognized as soon as he appears.
Yue Lin smiled slightly, "I have a way. Leave this matter to me; there’s no need to worry."
After all, he is the Young Master of the Yue Family, and when the old Family Head steps down, he’ll be the family leader overseeing this Purification Zone. Creating an identity from thin air isn’t difficult, but it requires going through some processes and takes time.
"Thank you, Captain." Shen Tang gratefully said.
Yue Lin, "Glad to be of help."
"If there’s any reward needed, I will make up for it!" Jin, with a stern face, pulled Shen Tang to his side. He didn’t want to owe this wolf a favor, but there was no other way right now.
Even though they were born in the same situation, he himself ended up in quite a sorry state.
Thanks to Shen Tang, Jin remained relatively obedient and did not cause any trouble, so the day passed smoothly.
By evening, team members were gradually returning to their rooms to rest.
Shen Tang was supposed to go back to the room with Yin Luo, but Jin insisted on following her.
Yue Lin had never seen a male so shameless, wanting to go back to a female’s room at night without even confirming a proper relationship!
He suppressed the impulse to kill this leopard; it wasn’t the time to act yet.
Yue Lin coldly said, "Females can take better care of each other. Your condition is still unstable; come with me, I have a spare room there."
Jin looked at Shen Tang, feeling a bit wronged, "I don’t want to stay with him; what if he kills me when I’m not paying attention?"
Admittedly, this concern is quite valid!
Yue Lin indeed couldn’t promise that he wouldn’t be tempted to act if they shared a space for one night with this leopard.
"...I’ll get you another room." Yue Lin asked the front desk for an additional room.
But whether it was a coincidence or not, this room was very far from theirs, three floors apart, with one room at the far north and the other at the far south.
Almost like being sent to the frontier!
Shen Tang could also see Yue Lin’s hostility toward Jin, and if it weren’t for her being the "Stabilizing Needle" present, these two might have already started fighting.
Moreover, Jin’s situation was special. If she wasn’t there, she feared something might happen to him.
If he became mentally unstable again, having her there meant at least she could provide timely treatment to prevent complete loss of control.
She told Yue Lin, "Thank you for your kindness, Captain, but I don’t feel safe leaving Jin alone. I’ll still go with him."
Having said that by a female, Yue Lin could not refuse, no matter how unwilling.
He suppressed the slight bitterness in his heart and handed her the room card, "If anything happens, remember to contact me first."
"Alright."
After saying goodnight, everyone dispersed.
