Chapter 6: An Awkward Banquet

Caitlyn walked towards me with small steps in her high heels, my heart was pounding, what's wrong today, my concentration is so poor, no, take a deep breath.

"Take a deep breath, I'm not nervous, calm, calm......" I felt a strange feeling in my heart, how could I have a sense of foreboding.

"You're here!" The sound is as magnetic as ever.

"Hmm." I replied lightly.

"You're pretty handsome today!" She smiled.

"Ahh Is she complimenting me? Why did my sense of foreboding grow stronger? Picked up a glass of wine and took a sip.

"By the way, let me tell you something, you're going to pretend to be my boyfriend in a while......"

Poof, the wine I just drank squirted all over the ground, "I'm sorry! ”

"It's fine." Caitlin covered her mouth and snickered.

"What did you just say?" I couldn't believe my ears.

"I said you're going to pretend to be my boyfriend for a while."

"Wait, how can this work? Officer Caitlin, don't be kidding me. ”

"What, you don't agree?"

"No, don't make a fuss, you, I'm here to make soy sauce." Hmph, don't think I don't know your purpose, I want to get rid of your bunch of followers, and then make me a target. How could I, who am wise and martial, fall for your scheme.

"I know what you're thinking? But you'll promise me. Caitlyn seemed to have the win.

"Oh? How can you be so confident? ”

"Because I know your secret."

"Oh? What secrets do I have? "Strange, she knows some secrets.

"You're not Anne's own brother!"

"Why, I'm her own brother." Strange, how would she know.

"First, she doesn't look like you at all; Second, she knows magic, but you don't; Third, you seem to have the ability to perceive others. And from what I know about the Voodoo Lands, the people there don't have that ability. ”

She was still smiling and confident.

"It's just your speculation! I didn't like to learn spells since I was a child, what's wrong? What's wrong with my love of learning strange arts since I was a child? ”

"Do you want me to go to the Voodoo Land and check it out?" Alas, it's not a wise thing to fool the police.

"Even if I'm not her own brother, I'm a godbrother and I don't break the law."

"According to the laws of Picheng, you deceived the police and abducted the little girl, with bad intentions! I have the right to criminally detain you. ”

"Huh? Is it that serious, you know, I'm a good person, I'm like a sister to Anne, I'm not malicious at all. ”

"Who knows if you have bad intentions?"

"I'm really scared of you, I didn't expect you to be so scheming. It's really that the more beautiful a woman is, the more she can't be provoked! ”

"So, you agreed!" She smiled seductively at me and staggered away in her high heels.

Alas! What should I do, when the time comes, she will announce in public that I'm not finished? No, I'll find an excuse to flash people quickly, yes.

"Brother Xiaofan, Sister Caitlin likes you!"

"Well, what do you little kid know?"

"Then why does she want you to be her boyfriend?"

Alas, I couldn't explain it to a child. I shudder at the thought of embarrassment for a while!

"Anne, this bottle of potion is for you, you can only drink half of it, you can't drink more, remember?"

"I know, Brother Xiaofan!"

"Good guy, drink!"

Anne drank half of it. I took out my glasses: 160, 165, 170 mana......

"When the banquet is over, and the arcane energy in Annie's body is restored, she will be able to meet her parents."

"Well, brother is so nice!"

The banquet began, with jazz music playing and many people dancing to the music. Anne also jumped and danced, I don't know how to dance, so I just drank a glass of wine and waited for the tragedy to come.

Caitlin walked onto the stage to an immediate cheer.

"As the director of the Picheng Police Department, it is my honor to be able to catch the No. 1 criminal in Picheng with my own hands, and it is an explanation to the people of Picheng, of course, this time I can catch Jinx, not only my credit, but also the credit of two people, they are Zhou Fan and Annie brother and sister. Next, I would like to invite Anne and Zhou Fan to come up to the stage and open champagne with me. I took Anne by the hand and walked onto the stage and opened the champagne with Caitlin.

The audience cheered, shouting Caitlin's name, how many people were crazy about her!

"Now, let's not be restrained, let's start playing!"

There was another cheer from the audience, and Caitlin took my hand and walked off the stage, yes, she was holding my hand, and the audience immediately cast all kinds of eyes. I read surprise, curiosity, jealousy, and even anger in those eyes. At this time, my heart was beating wildly, and it seemed inevitable that I would become the target of public criticism.

"Why are your hands so cold?"

"Where?"

"Let's go, I'll introduce you to some VIPs."

"Huh? No need for it! "But it was getting late, and we got to the front of a VIP seat.

"This is Mr. Blair, the head of the city-state security bureau, and this is Mr. Blair's daughter. This is Ms. Rowling, deputy director of the city-state security bureau. ”

"What a boy hero! The afterlife can be described as ah! ”

"Where, I just luckily helped the police solve the case and contribute to the people of Picheng, and I have long admired your name!"

"Hello, my name is Jace!" Someone stood up and shook my hand.

"Oh, hello, Jace. Jess? You're Jace? ”

I looked at him carefully, he was 185 tall, tall and burly, in his 30s, with an angular face and an imposing face.

"I am. You are ......"

"He's my boyfriend!"

"Oh, that's right." Jace sat back in his seat, looking displeased.

"Let's go," Caitlin took my hand and left the VIP seat.

Our hands let go in unison, "It turns out that this is the reason why you asked me to pretend to be your boyfriend." ”

"Clever, want to hear our story?"

"Jace, his teacher was the great inventor Black Mercury, he was good at inventing, he had a powerful weapon, the Mercury Cannon, which could be switched into a hammer form, and in order to protect Piltover as his mission, he once single-handedly killed Victor's laboratory in Zaun Victor and destroyed Victor's weapon. It's the hero of Leather City. But how could he like you? What's the plot? ”

"You're right, he's the hero of Leather City, he was already famous when I was just over ten years old, I admired him when I was a child, I met him by chance, he taught me to shoot guns, solve crimes, and I often stayed at his house to play with his various weapons. He wasn't angry, he didn't annoy me, he treated me like a sister, and I was glad to have a heroic brother. We had a very good relationship until half a year ago, when I went to his house again. ”

"What's wrong?"

"He suddenly said he liked me and wanted to marry me, and I thought he was joking. I didn't expect him to try to kiss me, I slapped him and ignored him. ”

"Oh? Is there such a thing? ”

"Well, I didn't expect him to come to my house to find my parents and ask me to marry him, I refused on the spot, but he still didn't give up, and begged me to forgive him many times and asked me to be his girlfriend, so I ignored him."

"That's weird, when did Jace say he liked you?"

"Half a year ago!"

"When did Jinx appear in Leather City?"

"About half a year ago! What's wrong? ”

"Half a year ago, such a coincidence? As I expected......"

"What?"
