Chapter 75

~6 min read 1,056 words

Darcy saw Matilda following behind and couldn't help but complain, "Do you bring a child along to handle cases... Handsome, I think you look more like a family of three out on a trip..."

"Huh?"

Jane also saw Matilda, frowned slightly in confusion, and fell into memory...

"Oh... you guessed half right, beauty."

Ye Li was indeed bringing his sister out to play, and asked Darcy, "What’s your name?"

This wavy-haired pretty supporting character, in his previous life, he hadn't really remembered her name.

"Darcy, Darcy Lewis~"

Darcy saw Ye Li talking to her first and said happily, "Handsome, then what’s your name?"

"Ye Li."

Ye Li also preferred enthusiastic and lively girls, so he chatted with her. "I think we can talk."

Talk about what? Certainly not about dating.

Although the impression was good, he didn't really like the slightly chubby type; Darcy was a bit plump, and her leg shape lacked a bit of aesthetic appeal.

Ye Li wanted to use Darcy... to inquire about Jane’s detailed situation... Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated.

If all went well, if he triggered the [Connection] mission for the female Thor, the mission reward should be the Thor template.

This, of course, couldn't be said directly; he had to get Darcy on board first, then slowly lure her in...

"Sure, sure! Handsome, contact information!"

Darcy thought this handsome guy was also interested in her, so she excitedly exchanged numbers with him~

Dr. Selvig couldn't watch anymore and reminded Ye Li, "If you want to hit on Darcy, then pick another time; don't disturb my work."

"We can talk right now!"

Darcy wouldn't let go of a handsome man who had fallen from the sky, so she grabbed Ye Li. "I know a good bar nearby; we can go there!"

Dr. Selvig was speechless at her infatuation. "Darcy, do you still want your credits?"

"Oh..."

Hearing the doctor bring up credits, Darcy had to let go of Ye Li first. "Then let’s stay in touch..."

"Alright, you can go now."

Selvig completely regarded Ye Li as a playboy who wanted to hook up with Darcy, and chased him away. "Dating can be done at night; for now, leave."

Ye Li flashed his ID again. "I still need to learn some intelligence from you."

He didn't have much interest in investigating Thor, but just hooking up with Darcy wasn't enough; he couldn't miss the protagonist, Jane Foster.

Using the investigation as an excuse, he would get familiar first.

"Do you think I’ll believe your nonsense?"

Dr. Selvig pointed at Matilda, who was sucking on a lollipop, and said to Ye Li with a pause.

"Just like Darcy said."

"If you want to deceive people."

"Please, at least don't bring a little girl."

He felt his intelligence had been insulted. Which department would bring a girl in her early teens to handle a case?

"Oh... what a prejudice..."

Ye Li squatted down and instigated his sister. "Matilda... he is discriminating against your age..."

"Huh? What’s wrong?"

Matilda was already used to it and felt that being looked down upon didn't matter, as long as the brother and sister in her new family liked her~

"..."

Seeing Matilda so indifferent, Ye Li simply said directly, "Ahem... let him see how amazing you are."

"Oh."

Matilda finally understood her brother’s meaning; he wanted her to show off.

So.

In the blink of an eye, she kicked out a beautiful high kick, and in the blink of an eye, it landed—

—Bang!

A small cloud of yellow dust rose~

After Matilda’s small boot moved away.

On the yellow mud ground, there was a clear, deep footprint.

Selvig: (Д)!

Jane: (⊙o⊙)!

Darcy: ⊙ω⊙!

"Who exactly are you people!?"

Dr. Selvig grabbed the taser from the table and pointed it at Ye Li. "Leave here..."

Click~

Barbara unhurriedly cocked her pistol and twisted a silencer onto the muzzle. "You’d better put down the toy in your hand."

"Misunderstanding! Misunderstanding!"

Darcy quickly raised her hands to mediate. "Li, first let... this lady put down the gun; we believe you are from the relevant department."

"Her name is Barbara."

Ye Li introduced her to Darcy. "Personal bodyguard; whenever someone points a weapon at me, she always likes to do this."

"I want to call the police..."

Selvig muttered to himself, "I want to call the police..."

"Alright, Doctor."

Darcy pressed his hand down. "Hurry and put down my taser."

Just then—

Jane suddenly said, "I remember!"

After searching through her childhood memories, she found that Matilda’s appearance was very similar to hers when she was a child!

Although it hadn't reached the level of twins, it reached the level of sisters.

It was very likely that she was a relative of theirs who had been left outside!

[Could it be that Dad or Mom had an illegitimate daughter outside?]

Holding this thought, Jane ran to Matilda, squatted down, and asked her, "Little sister, is your surname Foster?"

Matilda nodded and then shook her head. "Mm... my previous surname was Foster... but now my surname is Ye."

Ye Li’s eyes flickered; she really was a relative... and a cousin...

After this.

It was a large-scale search for relatives.

Jane called her family to ask and found out that her father had a younger brother.

This uncle had broken ties with the family because he joined a gang and dealt drugs, and they hadn't been in contact for many years...

In short.

Matilda was very likely Jane’s cousin.

They just needed to go to the hospital for a test to confirm it...

"So it was a search for relatives."

On the way to the county hospital.

Darcy kept looking at Matilda’s delicate little face and asked her best friend curiously, "Jane, you were this pretty when you were a child."

Jane rolled her eyes. "Am I not pretty now? And Matilda just looks like me when I was a child; it’s not exactly the same."

Selvig held an observation chart in his hand, on which there was a faint figure. "Going to the hospital is just right; that guy named Thor has a problem... need to check him..."

"What problem?"

Ye Li turned his head and teased the doctor playfully. "Let me take a look?"
