stensibly for their own enjoyment. In reality, this was a way of controlling them, preventing them from sending messages outside. This way, if anything happened, he would be the first to know.Men who..."Sure, I'll cover my own food. I'd like a single room on the same floor as them. I have a pet, so it wouldn't be good for me to live with everyone else."

Ripple rubbed the top of Cyclone's head, and Cyclone gave a little "meow." Their own cat owner would just use that as an excuse.

The young officer only then noticed that the black cat in Lian Ri's arms almost blended into her black sable coat. Had the cat not meowed, he wouldn't have seen it.

"Wow, you guys are really good at this. You even managed to raise a cat so well."

The junior officer raised his thumb in praise.

"Don't underestimate our little whirlwind, she's amazing! Last time when Sunqiang brought people to attack us, she single-pawedly took down three bad guys!"

Ripple smiled broadly.

She understated it, two people weren't enough. The whirlwind immediately refused, "Meow meow" twice, reminding its master that it had eliminated five bad guys, not counting the one who ate its mother and siblings.

"Good boy! I know you're amazing, but we need to keep a low profile! Low key!"

Ripple patted Cyclone's head and said with a smile.

The non-commissioned officer really knew about this. Before they closed in, Sun Qiang, wanting to get back at his woman, took his own life, saving them a bullet.

It turns out that these are the ones who killed him. No wonder he was called back by the captain, and they even have free housing! He immediately grinned and said:

"My apologies!"

Then, my single room

"Sounds good, sounds good"

“Do you want food or something else as rent”

Rpples asked directly.

Besides food, what else does Lian Yi Jie have

The young officer was sweet-talking, and in less than two minutes, Sister Ripples called him up.

"I still have a box of canned fish, will that work"

"That's a good thing, of course!"

The junior officer's eyes lit up. That was meat, real tasty meat.

Okay, take the keys and while you're at it, go collect the rent.

The ripples spoke directly.

"Sounds good!"

The junior officer ran into the room, grabbed a key, put on his military greatcoat, and then clumsily followed Ripple to their residence.

Yuan Chongming and the others were still tidying up the room, when Lian Yi walked in and greeted everyone.

"I rented a single room, right on this floor. Past the fire door in the middle is mine. It's very close to you guys. When I'm done cleaning up, come have a good meal at my place."

Everyone agreed. With one less person, there would be more space and they could all be more comfortable. Besides, Ripple was using her own resources, so they wouldn't object; in fact, they felt like they were getting a good deal.

The junior officer opened the small room. Lian Ri glanced at it, and it was just a thirty-square-meter studio apartment. The room already had simple furniture; she didn't need to furnish it alone.

The ripples were very satisfied and directly opened their large suitcase, taking out a box of canned fish. There were thirty small boxes inside, and they were spicy, which went well with rice.

The young officer cheerfully collected the rent and left. It would be great if there were more people like him!

After closing the door, Lian Ri began tidying up her single apartment. She first lit a fireplace, leaving a crack open in the window. After cleaning and making the bed, she also put the "whirlwind's nest" on her bedside table. She then placed its toys inside the nest, and Whirlwind snuggled into it with its toys, falling asleep peacefully.

In the evening, Lian Yi went to call people:

"Are you ready"

"Almost done!"

"Having hot pot tonight, I have lamb rolls, wide noodles, dried vegetables, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and lotus slices. What do you guys have that can be cooked in the pot Feel free to add some."

It's been ages since I last had hot pot. Just hearing you talk about it makes my mouth water!

Sun Weifeng exaggeratedly said.

I still have some pickled mustard greens here. They can be soaked and eaten or used in a dish.

My wife can make noodles, corn flour ones. Will that work

Liu Zidi is not a person who lives off others.

"Right! Why not Noodles are last to be rinsed."

Ripple smiled and said.

When Yuan Chongming arrived at Lian Yi's small room, he saw a single stove placed on the table in the living room. On top of it was a hot pot, with red and clear broth bubbling inside. The distinctive aroma of hot pot filled the entire room.

"So good!"

Zhao Jia put the plate in her hand on the table. Li Qian held a bottle of white wine, which could be considered as providing drinks. Sun Weifeng carried a frozen fish, Yuan Chongming had pork, and even Tan Jiayao, the little one, brought two packs of instant noodles.

After everyone had taken their seats, Lian Yi raised her glass and said:

"Under the calamity, it's fate that we can gather together. Now, we are considered organized people, and I believe things will be better in the future. I won't say much more, everything is in the wine!"

Cheers!

Cheers!

Jia Yao also raised his own orange juice drink, mimicking everyone else by clinking glasses.

The host and guests enjoyed the meal immensely, consuming all the food. Everyone went back to sleep for the first time, supporting their full bellies.

After the ripples cleaning was finished, she boiled some water and rinsed in the bathroom. Then, she hugged the Cyclone and had a sound sleep.

The next day, Liu Zili and his wife stayed at home to look after Jiaoyao, while the rest went to report for duty.

This is Situ Yi, Tang Tianming, Sun Zhou, and Chu Hong. In the future, the four of them will form a 'Vanguard' squad with you. I hope you all cooperate well.

After Song Da team introduced the four members of Si Tu to Lian Yi and the others, they left in a hurry. The rest was up to them.

Yuan Chongming, as the captain, politely shook hands with Situ and others, introducing the four people here. They got to know each other.

Sun Zhou was a dark-skinned young man. He felt that the five people in front of him didn't look very threatening at all. He didn't know why Captain Wang had sent Captain Situ to cooperate with them, so he was the first to step forward and say:

"Alright, you guys talk a big game but can you back it up Show us what you got!"

Given this provocation was to be expected, Ripple stroked Cyclone's head, pulling it from her arms and saying,

"Hurricane, you accompany that big brother to practice your skills. Be careful not to hurt him, and I'll make you some cat food for supper tonight."

"Meow!" The cat owner's word is their bond.

"When have I ever lied to you Go away!"

Ripple knew that the little guy was getting smarter and smarter, already possessing the intelligence of a four-year-old. So whatever she said, he would respond.

Then the whirlwind came up to Sun Zhou, creeping like a cat. Seeing this, everyone, including Situ Ji, frowned. Was the other party looking down on them or trying to humiliate them

"Meow" whirled around and gave a greeting, then with a kick of its back legs, it leaped towards the dark Sun Zhou. In everyone's eyes, it transformed into a black shadow, leaving Sun Zhou momentarily unprepared. He raised his hand to block, but his sleeve was slashed, revealing the cotton stuffing inside.

By the time Sun Zhou threw his punch, Cyclone had already dodged it. When Sun Zhou predicted Cyclone's attack and threw a preemptive punch, Cyclone executed an aerial twist, smoothly changing his trajectory. He landed a claw swipe that ripped through the cotton clothing on Sun Zhou's chest.

"Whirlwind, come back!"

Ripple cried out, and after the whirlwind landed, she ran towards Sun Zhou, letting out a "meow" before returning to her master's side.t time, you can stay. If not, you'll be eliminated."The black pills will keep you from feeling hunger for a month. The red pills enhance your inner strength. We'll meet again in a month.The beauty fin...
