Chapter 225 Become my boyfriend
Chapter 225 Become my boyfriend
Lathel heard that and nodded: "Um! Since that day, it's been almost a week since I've seen her."
"Hahaha… I think she won't be angry with you; after all, you still have to take the Magic Academy entrance exam." Laura smiled and said.
Lathel only forced a smile. He glanced at Laura, who was wearing a light dress instead of armour, and said: "This dress suits you very well, Captain Laura."
"Really?" Laura smiled and replied: "I thought I wouldn't be suitable for this type of outfit."
"Did you know that when I wore this dress, all the employees in the headquarters looked at me like they were looking at a strange creature?"
"Hahaha… that's because you're beautiful." Lathel did not hesitate to praise Laura. After all, she was really beautiful, it's just... this dress really didn't suit her.
"Huh! Your mouth is really sweet, it seems like a lot of girls have surrendered to that sweetness, right?" Laura crossed her arms over her chest, her voice carrying a bit of questioning and teasing.
Lathel laughed at himself, shook his head, and replied: "If girls were so easily fooled by my flirting, I wouldn't be single until now."
"Oh! Are you still single?
"Hahaha… Stop talking about this nonsense; you are not wearing armour today; are you on leave?" Lathel smiled and asked.
"Oy! You still haven't answered my question."
"Ack!" Lathel sighed and said: "That's right, I'm still single."
"Heh?!!" Laura glanced at Lathel, her gaze moved from his head to his feet, then around him again.
"Hm… You meet my quota for becoming my boyfriend. Well, do you want to be my boyfriend? I guarantee no one will cause trouble with you."
Lathel: "…" (ˉ ˉ |||)
"Okay, don't tease me anymore."
"I'm not joking with you." Laura said seriously: "I really like strong people. Besides, I also watched the entire process of the second round of competition."
"The image of you helping the other contestants, of you distracting that monster and fighting it alone…"
"Everything you did, I saw. That's why I feel like you and I are very compatible with each other."
Lathel forced a smile; he didn't think Laura would be so straightforward. But when he thought carefully, he felt that Laura was probably that kind of straightforward person.
If she wasn't strong and straightforward enough, how could she become the captain of the security team?
Although he also liked Laura very much, there was a problem.
Laura has a fairly high status in the Empire, and she is also very beautiful. That's why Lathel feels that there is an 80% chance of her being the female lead.
Although there was no real evidence, he could rely on his experience of reading many web novels to make such speculations.
"What's wrong? Don't you like me?
"Ack! Sorry, I don't want to fall in love for now."
"Hmm?!" Laura glanced at Lathel and immediately said: "You are lying."
"Heh?! Why do you say that?"
"Your eyes say it all." Laura smiled and replied: "I have interrogated many prisoners. Just by looking into their eyes, I can immediately tell if they are lying or telling the truth."
"The look in your eyes right now is the same, it's telling you that you're lying."
"Why did you lie? Or do you think I'm the kind of fierce woman who likes to beat people?"
"I… I don't think so. You are very strong, you are really the type of woman I like, but…"
"But? If you like it, you like it. If you don't like it, you don't like it. What's the point of talking so much? Laura walked up to Lathel and grabbed his collar: "Speak! Do you like me or not?"
"I… I…" Lathel hesitated; he felt like he wanted to cry. The women in this world were too odd, Dandite. I want to go to another world.
In fact, Lathel is a romantic and gentle person. Of course, he also likes women to take the initiative, but this makes it difficult for him to accept.
He doesn't hate strong women like Laura, but he wants to form a harem. He's afraid that before he can form a harem, Laura will punch him and break his teeth.
Besides... Laura is a female lead.
Summing up the above, he feels that Laura is not suitable for him.
"Sorry, you and I don't know each other very well; that's why… I can't like you." Lathel gently refused.
"Hm?! What effect does that have on us? Aristocrats all use women to intermarry for other benefits." Laura said.
"Many women do not know who their husband is until they get married. Now, I know what kind of person you are, can't I just be your girlfriend?"
"You are a man, you are the one who benefits the most. What are you worried about?"
"Or do you think your status is noble, and I'm just a small security team captain, so you don't like me?"
"Ack! I..." Lathel hesitated, not knowing how to answer: "You... you're joking, right?"
"Do I like that I'm joking?" Laura grabbed Lathel's collar tightly, making him feel worried.
Lathel raised his hand, wanting to push Laura's hand, but as soon as he raised his hand, Laura's other hand grabbed his hand: "Do you want to resist?"
"You…" Lathel was startled, he found he couldn't resist. Laura's strength was formidable, so formidable that it was as if his arm was no longer controlled by him.
"Answer me.. Do you like me or not?"
"Do I need to answer?" Lathel sighed and said: "I told you, I don't like you. This is the second time you and I have met. How can I like someone I don't understand well?
Laura frowned at him. After a while, she let him go and muttered: "Coward..."
Lathel escaped Laura's grasp and breathed a sigh of relief.
"You are so cowardly that you need my protection. Don't worry; even though this is only the second time we've met, I'm sure we'll see each other more often."
Listening to Laura, Lathel felt worried about his future.
Lilith, Farmyrth, Claire, Malina..etc... etc.—too many female leads, too many problems. Now Laura has joined his chain of troubles, making him want to cry.
"Let's go, I'll take you to meet that girl." Laura said smiling.
"Heh?! But… today is your day off, right?" Lathel asked confusedly.
"That's right. But Lafien is a special criminal, involved in illegal drugs, so if anyone meets her, I must stay by her side to observe." Laura shrugged and said.
"Ack! Sorry for disturbing..." Lathel said a little embarrassed.
Laura laughed. She used her index finger to point at the middle of his forehead: "There's no need to apologize. We will become a family in the future. There's no need to be so polite."
Lathel: "…" (ˉ □ ˉ 」 )
'Oy! Are you serious?' He secretly asked in his heart, of course, he did not dare to speak up.
Laura took Lathel inside the police headquarters, then went down to the basement, where prisoners were kept.
She led him to the third floor, then opened the monolithic metal door, revealing a dark and damp hallway.
On both sides of the hallway are prison cells with doors made from a special type of metal. On the door, there was a small window the size of a hand, so the manager could observe inside the cell.
"These doors don't have locks; the only way to open them is to use a special magic from the security team." Laura walked and talked.
She led Lathel to a cell, then placed her hand on the door.
A magic circle appeared on the door branch; the circle continuously rotated, accompanied by a 'crack, crack...' sound as if there were gears inside the door moving.
Krit!!!
A moment later, a somewhat harsh sound rang out, and the door slowly opened, revealing the dark space inside the cell.
Laura frowned and then snapped her fingers. Immediately, the room became brighter thanks to the lamp hanging above the cell's ceiling being lit.
The cell was not large; it was only about five square metres, without anything except a little straw.
Lathel immediately saw Lafien sitting huddled in the corner of the cell. She was hugging her legs, resting her head on the straw.
He frowned and asked: "What's wrong with her?"
Laura shrugged and explained: "She committed one of the Empire's heaviest crimes, so she was imprisoned here. These cells will create a kind of hallucination that will make her uncomfortable and make her regret what she has done."
"Can't she use magic to resist?"
"Hahaha… If it were that simple, how could the security team detain criminals?" Laura smiled and said: "Look at her feet first..."
Lathel frowned, seeing that Lafien's leg had a bracelet made of some kind of metal that he didn't know the name of. Above that bracelet were countless moving magic characters.
"That bracelet is specially designed to imprison magical energy. In other words, she is no different from a normal person now."
"Is she okay?" Lathel asked worriedly.
"Of course she's fine, however, if this situation continues, I'm afraid her mentality will collapse." Laura said: "But she is quite mentally weak."
"Normally, prisoners here can endure in this cell for two weeks or more, but in less than a week, she has already reached her limit."
Lathel gritted his teeth, feeling that Lafien was pitiful right now. Even though she was the one who gave him the pill, she didn't know what the pill was.
Besides... the person who gave her the pill was Alec, she was just a victim.
He sighed and said: "Laura, maybe..."
"I know what you're going to say." Laura interrupted his words: "In fact, Lafien also confessed everything, saying that the pill was given to her by Alec."
"So… why does she still have to be here?" Lathel asked.
Laura shook her head: "Because she doesn't have any evidence to prove it. I also have no evidence to accuse Alec, in the end, everything leads to a dead end."
"But… she was just the victim, she really didn't know that the pill was an addictive substance." Lathel tried to explain.
Laura shook her head: "Lathel, I know that; you know that too, but the law doesn't."
"The law is only based on evidence and authentic witnesses, trust does not mean too much when standing before the law."
"So… what should we do to save her?" Lathel asked hurriedly.
"There is no way for you to save her other than finding evidence to prove that she is innocent." Laura shook her head as she spoke.
Lathel heard that and immediately despaired. Even though he knew Alec was definitely the one who gave her the pill, would Alec turn himself in?
The answer is 100% 'no'.
"Ah! There is another way... but I'm afraid you won't agree."
Lathel heard Laura's words and happily asked: "It's okay; if I can do it, I will definitely agree."
"It's very simple… become my boyfriend."
