Chapter 338: The Times Have Changed, Rat_1
Chapter 338: Chapter 338: The Times Have Changed, Rat_1Lu Xiang felt that the biggest impact of Military Intelligence Section Seven on everyday life was that it made people suspicious, unable to resist doubting everyone around them.
They could have infiltrated the Law Enforcers’ department, possibly Captain Doug, Chief Snick, or even Grandpa Li downstairs of their apartment or the bartender at Gold Diggers’ Bar. Scrutinizing everyone with suspicion, they would naturally discover something dubious about them.
However, Song Lan seemed to be unaffected; when she returned to the apartment building, she still greeted Grandpa Li warmly and threw herself into cooking after getting home.
Dry pot potatoes, slow-cooked beef, spicy pork with bean curd skin, and sweet and sour ribs were all her favorites.
Lu Xiang’s attention was quickly captured by the full table of dishes; sometimes, she felt that Song Lan was incredibly considerate, remembering all the dishes she had heard mentioned at the crime scene.
Perhaps, that was why living with Song Lan felt so comfortable.
In every aspect.
Curious, Lu Xiang asked, "Aren’t you worried at all?"
She was already prepared to counsel Song Lan, but the latter seemed not to need any counseling.
"Worried about what?"
"For instance, just hypothetically, if Grandpa Li were from Military Intelligence Section Seven, what would you do?"
"Then I just wouldn’t give him the extra snacks anymore."
This response made Lu Xiang fall into thought; it sounded reasonable yet reminded her of the petty feuds of grade-schoolers, recalling how the harshest punishment in the eyes of her classmates was "I won’t talk to you ever again."
Perhaps because this punishment was too severe, it usually lasted only one or two class periods.
"By the way, you said you and Dr. Bai Zhu couldn’t find the member list of Military Intelligence Section Seven. Don’t they use cell phones regularly?"
"
"Ophir!"
"I’ll be taking this one."
Ophir tossed a case towards them, "Consider this your hardship fee. Take it and run while you still can."
