Of course, Wise was well aware of what Ellen meant. After all, every night when he sent her a "good night" message, she would reply instantly. He immediately reached out and stroked Ellen's hair, his face full of affection. "Mhm, of course, I know Ellen cares about me a lot, just like you're very important to me."
Wise's words made Ellen blush and lower her head, her tail swaying slightly behind her. Ellen was happy, Wise was happy, but Hedy, who was watching from the side, was not happy.
Why?! I was here first... oh, Miss Ellen was probably here before me, but at least today, I was here first! Hedy's heart was filled with sorrow. I was all prepared to be the other woman, so why did the main wife show up now? No, wait, I guess she doesn't count as the main wife either.
At this moment, Ellen also noticed Hedy and looked over at her. Being stared at like that, Hedy instantly felt nervous. She didn't know what she was nervous about. She hadn't even succeeded yet. Was she feeling guilty just for having the thought? Hedy could only try her best to appear calm so Ellen wouldn't see through her. But in reality, Ellen's reason for looking at her was something else entirely. It was simply that what she was about to do was not convenient with an outsider present.
So, Ellen directly took the arm Wise had on her head and proactively led him towards the room on the second floor. After all, besides chatting with Wise on a messaging app, Ellen hadn't had any physical contact with him for the past few days. Naturally, there were many things she wanted to tell him in person. Of course, the reason she had such thoughts was all Wise's fault. If it weren't for him, why would a Shark-person like Ellen have so much to say?
Downstairs, Hedy was on the verge of tears. There was nothing she could do. She could only wait until her shift ended and see if she would have a chance tomorrow.
Meanwhile, two figures, one grey and one white, silently entered Sixth Street.
"That was close, sister. We almost got caught just now." The younger sister patted her magnificent chest as if she had just experienced something perilous. The older sister, however, glanced down wordlessly. Mhm, I can see my toes directly. Hmph, not happy at all.
"It's no big deal. That big sister was just being kind and wanted to take us home."
Thinking back to a short while ago, not long after the sisters had left the Hollow, they were following the scent to find the person in their minds, but they somehow ended up at the entrance of the Public Security Bureau. They also happened to run into a big sister with a streak of red hair. Seeing that the sisters looked young and were wandering around, she mistook them for being lost. She kindly approached them to ask if they needed help, but before she could say much, the younger sister started speaking incoherently and almost revealed that they had just come out of a Hollow.
"We managed to escape thanks to me." The older sister said this while puffing out her chest proudly, only to feel dejected again when she found there was nothing to puff out.
"I know, but sister, you were too rough with Pei Pei," the younger sister said, lovingly stroking the little white fox named Pei Pei in her arms. A closer look revealed that a patch of white fur on its tail was noticeably shorter. This was what the older sister had just pulled out to escape, using the excuse of needing to take their pet to the vet before rushing off.
However, an Ethereal was not an ordinary animal. In just a short while, the pulled-out white fur had already grown back.
"I know, I'll be gentler next time." Seeing her younger sister's expression, the older sister could only shrug her pressure-free shoulders. (Older Sister: Idiot, you don't need to emphasize that kind of thing!)
"But we should be very close now. The scent here is particularly strong. It seems this is where that person lives frequently."
Upon hearing this news, the sisters were overjoyed but also faced another problem: the scent was too strong, making it impossible to pinpoint the exact location. "Sister, what should we do now?"
"Simple. We'll search one house at a time."
After hearing her older sister say this, the younger one was momentarily stunned. There are so many houses. How long will it take to search them one by one?
The older sister, of course, knew her younger sister's personality, but this was the only way. "We have no choice. We have to do it this way. Let's start with that one over there." The older sister pointed with her fair index finger towards a shop on a street corner not far away, which was also the closest one to them.
...
Back to the video store.
Hedy was still sighing helplessly in the shop. Little 18, standing by, wanted to comfort her but didn't know how. Just then, the shop door was pushed open again. Hedy immediately shed her dejected look and put on a professional smile.
Two girls wearing veils walked in. Even so, it was easy to see their delicate features. They were dressed in grey and white dresses, their skin snow-white, and their eyes as beautiful as gems. They looked around as if searching for something.
"Welcome. Are you two looking for a particular film?" Hedy addressed the one who looked more like the older sister. She could see that the two looked very similar and were probably sisters. Because the younger sister looked rather aloof, she naturally chose to speak to the one who seemed more approachable. As for how to tell who was the older sister? Naturally, the one with the better development was the older sister.
But to her surprise, the girl in front of her was slightly taken aback and didn't reply immediately. Hedy, mistaking this for them not knowing the film's title, spoke again. "If you don't know the name of the film, you can also tell me the general plot."
But who would have thought that after she said this, the girl who looked somewhat aloof shook her head. "My sister and I are here looking for someone."
"Huh? Sister?" Hedy blurted out subconsciously. But she immediately felt the gaze of the girl in front of her turn somewhat cold, so she quickly changed her words. "My apologies. May I ask who you are looking for?" Since I made a mistake, and she seems to care about it a lot, I definitely can't bring it up again. I can only change the subject.
Hedy planned this in her mind. The girl opposite her didn't pursue the matter, and even the younger sister who had been stifling a laugh now wore a serious expression.
"..."
"..."
"Um, is there a problem, you two?" Hedy, seeing the two silent girls in front of her, couldn't help but ask, but she still didn't get an answer. A thought couldn't help but form in her mind: Could it be that these two girls don't even know who they're looking for?
Just then, the younger sister spoke up.
"Mhm. It's a male whose scent my sister remembered, and who is deeply imprinted in our minds. In human terms, he is a very, very handsome man."
(Can't think of an interesting title again!)
