Chapter 22: Reporting
Lin Tuo Lin Tuo? Hmm This name seems to be a bit familiar.
Ji Bai slightly knitted his eyebrows as he entered into a state of contemplation.
Thats right!! Isnt this that refined-looking joker from yesterday afternoon?
Seems like I have dialed the wrong number. Sorry for the inconvenience I will be hanging up now.
Wai- Hold on a moment! Uhm are you looking for my brother Ji Bai mister? Ji Bai hurriedly stopped Lin Tuo who was about to hang up. His puerile and sweet tone fired up Lin Tuos emotions who was on the other end of the call.
This little girls voice is so pleasant to hear. It sounds so sweet and lovely like the taste of spring water
Ah yes yes. Im looking for Ji Bai. Speaking of which are you Ji Bais little sister? Eh I dont recall that he mentioned having a little sister before. After being silent for a moment Lin Tuo said his tone clearly contained a trace of doubt.
Eh~ Actually Im a distant cousin of senior Ji Bai~ It just happened to be the holiday season thats why I decided to come over here and play around for 2 days~
Oh I see
Yes yes~ Ji Bai quietly heaved a sigh.
Well then little girl. Can you allow me to make a rude request? The tone on the other side suddenly turned serious.
Eh?
The public security in the border town isnt too good these past two days because there have been a bunch of demonic human traffickers running rampant! For young girls like you its very dangerous to leave home to go sightseeing! At this moment you need a reliable and ferocious man that is capable of giving you a sense of security and protection. If you wish to head out next time please give me a call! While ol Lin is indeed incapable simply dealing with a bunch of evil demons is still a cinch for him!
You protect me?
As he thought of the display the guy had shown him yesterday afternoon Ji Bai felt a sense of scorn in his heart.
This guy isnt thinking of picking me up is he? Logically speaking is he really gonna get it on with a jailbait? Does he really not understand the consequence of a minimum of three years in prison and the highest a death penalty?
Of course~ Thank you big brother! He replied with a smile; while in his mind Ji Bai impatiently scorned about how Lin Tuo was taking his time talking and not getting to the point.
Erm so mister Lin Tuo is here to find my elder brother right? Please wait a moment~ Ill call him now. Realizing that Lin Tuo was preparing to steer the momentum of the conversation into weird territory Ji Bai launched a preemptive strike. He put on a fake smile as he placed the subject of conversation towards himself.
Helloooo Hello? Eh?? Lin Tuo was still planning to say something more however the sweet and puerile tone of the loli had suddenly disappeared; What quickly took its place was the lazy voice of a male.
Hello are you the culturalized gangster? Why are you looking for me?
C-Culturalized gangster!? You Youngster dont always spend your day thinking of how to sensationalize stuff1! Do you know what the term respecting the old and loving the young is? Because he heard traces of disdain and scorn coming from the lazy voice the corner of Lin Tuos mouth began to twitch.
Why did two siblings that live together in the same roof turn out so differently? The sister is so cute and polite while the brother makes people want to bash his head in!
Alright state your business. Otherwise Im hanging up.
You youngsters are simply too young too simple! Dont you know how to respect a senior thats older than you? Forget it lets get back to the main point. Lan Yi wants me to notify you to report to our branch. Its a branch at a border town thats located in Ink town its situated in the Falling Origin District. Our contact will be there when you reach the place.
Contact? Why do I feel like Im being dragged into a pirate ship? Ji Bai slightly knitted his eyebrows.
Wait Hold on a moment! Falling Origin District? Thats such a far journey and you guys arent expressing any form of gesture? Surely it isnt too much of an excessive part for you guys to order a carriage and pick me up right?
Forget that! You expect us to order a carriage for you? Do you know how expensive the travel expenses are going to be when its that far away? We might as well send a limousine down to you! Lin Tuo sulkily said.
That will do when is the limousine arriving?
That will do your ass! Limousine pick-up? I dont have such a privilege even as a senior and a seasoned veteran in the organization! That must be some wonderful dream youre having right there huh?
Alright! Alright alright But you ought to write off my travel expenses no? If thats denied as well Ill have no choice but to decline right now. Ji Bai touched his shriveled wallet. As his supply of blood bags had been exhausted he was truly in desperate straits and had no choice but to plan for the future.
If you reach here before 7 Ill help you apply for reimbursement. However you can forget about it if youre late by even a second. Lin Tuo flatly replied.
Ji Bai abruptly raised his head and looked at the clock that was hanging by his wall. The stubby and short hour hand was shockingly pointing at the place between 5 and 6. He then looked at the stretch of darkness outside his window.
Dang! Its still the middle of winter and your chivalric order is expecting people to report there before sunrise?!
Its up to you. But if you miss this opportunity there wont be another one. Give me a call once youve gotten off
How stingy can this guy be? No wonder hes still single. Traces of scorn appeared on Lin Tuos expression. He had completely forgotten that he too was a bachelor like him.
Oh thats right! Speaking of which your sister
Beep. beep. beeeeeep Ji Bai had no intention of waiting for Lin Tuo to finish his words and directly hung up the call.
Could this middle-aged man be a lolicon? Ji Bai placed his phone in his pockets as his lips formed a wicked smile.
By taking advantage of the skies still being dark I can easily turn myself into a vampire and fly directly to the Falling Origin district. Once it comes time to apply for reimbursement I can just report that I took a taxi there. This will allow me to reap a profit. Yahoo~
What? Thats too shameless? Im sure you havent experienced true poverty its the type of poverty that will almost make one wear a miniskirt and engage in compensated dating! People who say things like those are truly too blissful. They ought to be thrown into Siberia and grow potatoes for a few days!
If it wasnt for how he had meticulously planned and accounted for every single dollar he used Ji Bai would maybe be the top model of some brothel right now.
A scarlet radiance flashed and a swarm of small black bats surrounded him like stars around the moon as it flew in all directions. A silver-haired loli wearing a gothic white black-laced dress opened her eyes. She stood tiptoed and opened the window before leaping out. Underneath the silent moonlight her petite body turned into a crowd of small tightly-clustered bats that streaked across the black skies.
