Some people are involved in shady dealings, such as human trafficking.

Previously, a human trafficking incident had occurred at the sanatorium. During Aponia and Qianjie's investigation, it was found to be the work of a gang. However, the trail went cold when they got to the gang. Then, Qianjie came up with a good idea.

Since they're from this gang, let's beat them all up; that way, the human traffickers won't be able to escape.

Then...then Qianjie punched them all one by one, giving them all a good beating. The human trafficker they finally found was even beaten by Qianjie for three and a half pages.

Perhaps Master Qian has something in common with some 17-year-old delinquent who likes to beat up centenarians.

From then on, those gang members acted like mice before a cat whenever they saw Qianjie.

However, only Paddo, Aponia, and those who experienced it firsthand knew about this. In the hearts of the children in the sanatorium, Qianjie was still that strong, taciturn, and maskless porter uncle.

"I'm just an ordinary porter. I don't have their powerful abilities. You're asking me for help? No way."

Qianjie shook his head indifferently, looking utterly heartless.

"Waaah...why is this happening?"

Pado looked utterly devastated.

Just then, Qianjie and Paduo heard two footsteps slowly approaching at the entrance of the sanatorium.

Moreover, they were all women's footsteps. After all, the sound of high heels is quite easy to distinguish.

However, Aponia is the only person at the sanatorium who wears high heels, and her footsteps are much more steady than this...

"We're here, this is it, Mei. Hmm... the house is a little old, but it's very clean. It seems the owner has kept it very clean."

Alicia's uniquely recognizable, sweet voice immediately reached Paddo's ears, and in an instant, Paddo was like a cat with its fur standing on end, extremely flustered.

Moreover... the other party is right behind me right now.

She wanted to run away, but then she thought that the other person had probably already seen her. What if she ran away and the other person questioned her about Qianjie?

If I were to cause a conflict between the two sides, I would be committing a grave sin.

"Hey? Isn't this our tour guide? Hi~ What luck, to run into you here again."

Alicia's sweet voice now sounded like a death knell, tormenting Pado's heart.

Especially after confirming that the other party had recognized him, he felt utterly hopeless.

She turned around, looked at Alicia and Huang Quan, and took a deep breath.

Just when Huang Quan thought the other party was going to run away, the other party suddenly jumped, performed a "Wild Goose Landing on Sand" move in mid-air, and then landed steadily on the ground.

boom!

Its forehead struck the ground with a resounding thud.

Does it sound good? If it sounds good, it’s a good start!

"I'm so sorry! I stole your wallets! I've already used the money to buy supplies, so I don't have any money to pay you back right now! But don't worry, I'll definitely find a way to repay you. Please don't make things difficult for the nursing home, sob sob..."

Without saying a word, Pado got into a fancy taxi and begged for their forgiveness.

Because things developed so quickly, Qianjie was still somewhat caught off guard and didn't quite understand what was going on.

Then she realized that the two beautiful women in front of her were the unlucky ones whose wallets had been stolen by Pado.

He held the supplies in his hand, ready to wait and see.

Although the fault lies with Pado, if these two really want to make things difficult for her, Qianjie will still step in to mediate.

Of course, she didn't want to see that happen.

However, what happened on the field was somewhat unexpected.

Alicia looked at Paddo kneeling on the ground, walked up to her, and extended her hand.

Just as Paddo thought Alicia was going to teach her a lesson and was preparing to endure the pain, Alicia helped her up and gently stroked Paddo's forehead, which was red from the impact.

"Don't do that again, it's dangerous."

As she spoke, she gently brushed the dust off Paddy's forehead.

"Hey? Sister Aili, you...you're not angry?"

Looking at Alicia's smile, Pado asked cautiously.

"What are you angry about?"

Alicia still had that same smiling expression.

"I...I stole your wallet, and I might even be causing you to go hungry tonight..."

"I'm not angry..."

Alicia smiled and shook her head: "Everyone has difficult times. If my wallet can help you out of your current predicament, then it should be in your hands. In fact, I'd be happy if it could help you."

Alicia looked at Pado in front of her and gently rubbed the other's fluffy little head.

Qianjie, standing to the side, looked at Ai Li with some surprise, unsure of what to say for a moment.

In today's world, are there really still people like this?

"Waaaaah, Sister Aili...you're practically a saint! No! You really are a saint! I'm going to follow you from now on...Aili!"

Pado looked at Alicia in front of her and didn't know what to say for a moment.

She had wondered what she would face if she were caught stealing.

It was a beating, humiliation, or something even more cruel.

Maybe I'll get my tendons severed and be left to fend for myself on the street...

But she never expected that... after being caught stealing a wallet, she would be rescued by Alicia?

This...an angel! This must be an angel!

"I used to not believe that there were perfect people in the world, but if someone were to say that there are no perfect people in the world now, I would not hesitate to say Sister Ellie's name!"

Pado immediately began praising Alicia.

"Oh, don't flatter me! Even I get shy sometimes!"

Alicia looked at Paddo in front of her. Although she said she was sorry, her expression clearly showed that she was very pleased.

How could a young girl be unhappy when she hears words of praise?

Alicia never liked to hide her emotions.

"These supplies..."

Looking at the supplies Qian Jie was carrying, Huang Quan couldn't help but ask curiously.

"These supplies were purchased with the money from Ellie and Mei... to give to the children at the sanatorium, which takes in many children."

“Pado sometimes sends over supplies, but this is the first time they’ve sent so much.”

Qianjie, standing to the side, said meaningfully.

"Looks like our wallets are working perfectly again!"

Alicia nodded with a smile, then couldn't help but look at the receipt clipped to the opening of the plastic bag.

A long list detailing how much Pado spent on purchasing these supplies.

"This price has already exceeded the total amount of cash that Mei and I carried, hasn't it?"

Alicia said with some surprise.

"I...I have some savings of my own, so I contributed a little bit, but this time I will donate the supplies in the names of Sister Airi and Sister Mei."

"No need, use your name."

Huang Quan shook his head and said, "We're not from here, after all. We'll leave after we've done what we need to do. Of course, if we have time, we'll come visit the sanatorium. Could I go see the children there?"

"Of course! These children are so well-behaved! They all listen to you."

Pado, standing to the side, said with a smile.

On ordinary days, some kind-hearted people would come to the sanatorium to visit the children. Pado could decide this herself without having to inform the true owner of the place, Aponia.

"However, I am a little curious. There's nothing fun to do on Twilight Street. Judging from your attire... you don't seem like ordinary people. What are you doing here on Twilight Street?"

Huang Quan and Alicia naturally wouldn't wear the Fire Moth's combat suit, so Qian Jie didn't recognize who the two were.

"We are the Moth Chasers. We came here to investigate because we heard that some people in Twilight Street have shown symptoms of Honkai erosion."

Alicia did not hide her identity, but honestly revealed it to everyone.

However, it would have been better if they hadn't said anything, because once they did, the atmosphere at the scene instantly became a bit strange.

Besides serving as an orphanage, this sanatorium also shelters a group of children afflicted by the Honkai disease, some of whom are already in the late stages of the infection...

If they go any further, they will transform into suicide bombers.

And now, two people who are like moths drawn to fire have arrived...

Huang Quan (pre-Honkai civilization): 13: Herrscher of Consciousness: I want to enter Huang Quan's consciousness and then kill her!

"So that's how it is. How come the busy Moth Chaser has time to come to our Dusk Street? Our little place can't accommodate such a big shot as the Moth Chaser."

Qian Jie nodded, then spoke to Alicia and Huang Quan beside him, without showing any unusual expression.

Rather, it would be strange if you reacted strongly to the words "moth chasing the flame."

Although Qianjie has a bad temper, he is not stupid.

There's a difference between being short-tempered and being reckless.

"It's nothing major, just a routine patrol. With the Honkai disasters becoming more and more frequent, the Moths of Fire need to take good precautions, otherwise the losses would be much more severe if a Honkai actually occurs."

Alicia explained with a smile.

Although she noticed that Qianjie and Paduo seemed to be acting strangely after she and Huangquan revealed their identities, she did not choose to ask them further.

"Haha, I really didn't expect that Sister Airi and Sister Mei would actually be big shots in the Fire Moth!"

Pado, standing to the side, looked at the two of them and said with some surprise.

"We are just two ordinary combatants, nothing special among the Firemoths."

Huang Quan said calmly from the side.
