Chapter 62: Sweet as Honey

Only used a suspected demon report, but two demons were found -

Although Russell failed to capture any of them, he was still honored by the board of directors, considering that the "budding lovers" were demons that had already hatched.

Delphinium remained the head of the Special Operations Department, while Russell was officially promoted to Deputy Minister and also served as the Head of the Executive Department.

- The whole process is filled with a sense of urgency to catch the ducks on the shelves.

It's as if the shovel officer is pulling Russell's ears and yelling at him, "Don't touch it, get out of work, it's time to work overtime."

"Russell" didn't dare to giggle, so he had to be promoted. Then run to sit in the office.

One thing to say, as a cat, catching mice is indeed his job.

This is mainly used to solve the problem of the lack of a leader in the executive department after the disappearance of the inferior.

So far, the Tianen Group has still not sent anyone to hunt down the inferior. No matter how inefficient it is, it is impossible to react so slowly...... Russell realized that this was the board's acquiescence to the departure of the inferior.

He left voluntarily...... He didn't poach anyone, and he didn't bring any negative press to the company - he was reciprocated, and the company chose not to hunt him down.

While not doing things absolutely, it also gives the inferior a chance to regret and come back to admit their mistakes.

After all, the essential reason why the executive department is now leaderless is actually because the inferior ones are too social animals......

After all, even the most magnificent candle flame will still become dim under the light of even the stars and moon. After the inferior takes away all the most difficult tasks, it makes no one else get any conspicuous merit.

Of course, based on Russell's understanding of the character of the inferior, perhaps he did it on purpose.

And of course, the delphinium that did not wake up still did not come to work.

Russell had prepared an excuse for her to take a leave of absence in advance, but to his regret and reasonableness, no one had come to check on the arrival of the delphinium.

- But Russell couldn't say anything about the delphinium, because he didn't actually go either.

It was the vessel of God that went to work for Russell.

Write reports, deal with leaders, deal with the media, approve documents......

When Delphinium "took a vacation" and the Container of the Gods went to work as a substitute, Russell realized that she really had a lot of work instead of sitting there reading books and watching the news every day.

Previously, the fact that Luo and Tiansheng were sniped by the elven assassin was also included in the investigation by "Russell".

He was surprised by the fact that he found out something that surprised him quite a bit—or rather, how easily he could find out.

The elves were not hired, nor were they sane workers, or even professional assassins.

And strictly speaking, it wasn't the two of them...... It's four.

The information log is clearly written, they are from Sogo Island. It was the same airship that Russell and Amirus had been hijacked before.

They are all network engineers affiliated with Sogo Corporation. After arriving at Happiness Island in a scattered manner, he somehow infiltrated the psychological clinic of Flower Touch and stole unknown documents. The specific time of the crime was the night before Russell went to find Flower Touch.

They must have seen and copied the documents Russell had obtained and decided to shoot one of them.

The "prototype" was also harassed by them, but only sniped once tentatively, and did not continue to do it...... It's the same situation as the one that happened to the Radius. In the end, the only one who was killed was the "amateur assassin" who went to assassinate Tiansend.

In addition to that, there is one more person.

He had also been in contact with Flower Touch, but Flower Touch did not give his report to Russell.

The man's code name is "Nirvana", a cyber detective who doesn't have a very good reputation. Because the Cyber Security Department had suspected him of being a psionic hacker, he was always monitoring the other party...... turned out to be filmed in the process of "Nirvana" being shot and killed.

But it doesn't seem to make sense to say that these people are stealing any information. Because they left Happiness Island and returned to Sogo Island immediately after killing Nirvana, and did not go to the apartment where Nirvana was to search.

It's very inexplicable - four decent elves who have specialized in sniping techniques, as network engineers for other Sky Islands, go to a psychiatrist's clinic on Happiness Island and look through her medical records, and then shoot each of her four patients and quickly run away.

It can only be said that Russell felt that he had indeed found something, but it seemed that he had found nothing.

It looks like we'll have to wait a while for the psionic armament.

Director Amirus personally started the commissioning, and it took at least a month or more to complete it. The old elf claimed that Russell could go to Thotronic at any time to watch the progress of the production.

Russell trusted Amirus so much that he didn't look at it.

- I can't understand it anyway, so there's no need to go over and pretend to understand it.

Shenzhi Heavy Industry, which lost the heavenly delivery but got the monkey-faced eagle, and the Sogo Group, which specially came to kill a small person, all strangely remained silent.

As a result, Russell's side became strangely quiet.

Tianen Group did not do any more work. There was no war against the lower city again, and there was nothing on the news from the church after the angels entered the Special Enforcement Department.

Although it felt like the oppressive tranquility that preceded the storm, Russell was also able to enjoy himself.

He hadn't been anywhere for the past few days, and he hadn't even entered the dream realm.

At first, he was worried about the situation on the Delphinium's side, but after he got used to it, Russell gradually put his mind at ease.

Russell's original worries about the Delphinium's parents were the best solution - when Russell told them that the Delphinium was with him, they didn't even ask when the Delphinch would come home.

In addition to always paying attention to Delfinium's body temperature, helping her get nutritional injections to replenish water and reduce fever, and deal with personal hygiene, she made a pot of tea safely, sat on the edge of the bed and read books and dramas for a long time.

Russell initially wanted to drink ice cola. But Coke really doesn't go well with reading, and he can't play the game inexplicably.

It's like sitting on an airboat for a long time, and when you come down, you feel that down-to-earth feeling. Just lying next to the delphinium made Russell feel his mood become peaceful.

On the first night, Russell didn't even sleep much.

The delphinium was lying in the middle of the bed, and Russell was lying on the edge of the bed. He recounted the trouble he had caused to himself with the three of them, and fell asleep in the rocking chair he had moved to the side of the bed.

When Russell woke up, he found his head resting on Delphinium's belly...... And he was directly "poured" out of the rocking chair next to the bed, kneeling on the ground next to the bed, maintaining a strange posture.

- Although I don't know if the delphinium has nightmares because of being pillowed all night, Russell does feel some stiffness in his knees.

After that, Russell moved the delphinium to the back of the bed. And he no longer sat on the edge of the bed, but lay down on the bed together......

Russell was actually quite apprehensive that day.

He was always worried that Bad Day would suddenly push the door in and see this scene. But there are some small expectations in my heart, hoping that someone can really see it.

As a result, he didn't fall asleep for half a day that day - because Russell's sleeping appearance was actually quite random when he wasn't tied up.

When he was in middle school on Sogo Island, he and his roommates slept in bunk beds. He once rolled down from the top bunk and landed a curling ball into the bottom bunk roommate.

Heaven has sent justice, and it belongs to yes.

After that, Russell would only sleep in the bunk...... No matter how peculiar his sleeping position was, at least he wouldn't roll to the top bunk.

Russell was worried that he would wake up and kick the delphinium to the ground...... Or roll and roll, pressing the delphinium to the hair or flesh.

But when Russell woke up, he found that he had already hugged the delphinium at some point.

Not only was he rolling, but he was dragging the delphinium and starting to roll with him—the position where they were no longer where they had fallen asleep was no longer where they had fallen asleep, but had turned ninety degrees and slept in the middle of the bed. The delphinch's big fluffy tail was still on Russell's waist, and Russell was holding the delphinium and shrinking into the other's arms.

When Russell got up with a flushed face and a confused face, he realized that he had slept for twelve hours.

He's been a long, long time, and he's slept more than eight hours. If he had to go to work, he would have been late by now.

- Oh, I have boosting. That's fine.

But suddenly sleeping in one breath for so long, I don't feel refreshed. On the contrary, there is a vague headache, and there is some laziness that I don't want to move. So Russell slowly retracted back into bed after washing, eating, and helping Delphinium with a round of hygiene.

Since then, Russell has finally let go of his subtle shame.

With a faint sense of happiness that "has been hugged", revealing a faint joy and self-satisfaction, he can finally calm down and watch some books or TV series while Delphinium is sleeping next to him, instead of looking back at her all the time.

Sometimes I'm tired of reading books and sleepy watching dramas...... He would tilt his head and lie on the shoulder of the delphinium for a quiet rest.

Russell suddenly understood what Morgan had said.

That quiet and serene sense of satisfaction can release all loneliness.

It is the antidote to all bitterness, and it is as sweet as honey.

- But maybe you don't have to lie in the sun to dream about her.

For where she is, is my sun.
