Chapter 565 Adorably Infuriating
565 Adorably Infuriating
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Watching the expressions of the police chief alternate between disbelief and understanding, Emilia couldn’t help but hum thoughtfully. ‘Should I help her justify it, or will she be able to do it on her own?’
Just as the crimson-haired girl was wondering so, however, the chief of police already seemed to have come to a decision as she nodded. “You did a good job, uh, Emi.”
With the speed at which the lady justified a teenager being able to decimate a whole squad of trained fighters, Emilia had to admit that the chief of police was quite an accomplished mental gymnast.
She grinned. “Thank you! Emi was worried about being scolded Emi doesn’t need to worry that she did something bad anymore now that aunty has said so!”
‘A-Aunty?! I- I’m only thirty-five!’ The police chief was too stunned by the unexpected ‘attack’ to even notice how the girl changed the way she talked deliberately.
She wasn’t even married yet! How could she be considered old enough to be called anyone’s aunty?!
Fortunately, a knock on the door by her colleague distracted her just in time.
“C-Come in!”
The male officer who walked in breathed a sigh of relief after taking a quick look around.
Given that they were all male and the situation inside could be quite sensitive for the young girl who had been taken, they understood why the chief of police didn’t want them to follow her in.
That being said, how could they really rest assured that nothing strange was going on without confirming it themselves?
If she was taken away and forced to pass on that message, wouldn’t they be foolishly waiting for her to be slaughtered along with the victim while being right next to them?
Even if the police chief had already communicated that the situation was under control after breaking into the office, and didn’t request for any reinforcements, most of them had similar worries, and the arrival of Emi’s manager gave them just the right opportunity to put their thoughts into action.
Speaking of the manager, the moment she walked into the office, the woman immediately locked her sights on her target, and made a championship-worthy dash towards the girl.
“They didn’t touch you, did they? Tell me where it hurts and I’ll patch it up! Then we can go to the hospital and—”
Emilia was only momentarily dumbfounded as she was ‘patted down’ by the worried manager before she shook her head in amusement. “I didn’t get hurt at all, but… were you worried about Emi?”
Her words seemed to immediately turn the worried manager furious. “I told you not to run around! Even if you managed to escape this time, are you not even scared about what could have happened?!”
Although she didn’t admit it, the manager couldn’t help but curse in her heart. ‘Emi you little brat, how could you be so smug after nearly scaring this granny to death?!’
If not for Crystal’s orders, she would have definitely made this brat’s butt swell in regret!
Emi, however, seemed completely unrepentant, and lifted her chin up proudly. “Humph, how could those baddies hurt me, the heroine of justice?!”
The manager choked. “You’re a mascot, not a heroine! And who gave you that stupid title?! I already decided it would be the Red Rabbit!”
“What?! But that’s so childish!”
After being pushed repeatedly, the manager finally couldn’t help but reach out to pinch the girl’s chubby cheeks as hard as she could in fury. “If I don’t teach you a lesson today—!”
Her ‘punishment’, however, was interrupted by an awkward cough from the chief of police. “If it’s alright, please refrain from causing further distress to the baby.”
To be honest, the police chief hadn’t gotten over Emi calling her an aunty, but if she really held a grudge against an already traumatized little girl, wouldn’t she bring shame to all the admirers of her just and kind princess?
Besides, no matter how satisfying it was to watch the soft cheeks of the adorable little brat being kneaded like that, she couldn’t just stand by and let this ‘domestic violence’ take place right in front of her eyes, could she?
Having almost forgotten that they weren’t alone after being too relieved that her poor mascot hadn’t been dismembered, the manager was momentarily stunned, but that wasn’t so for the younger girl.
“Emi is not a baby!”
Despite her apparent dissatisfaction, however, the crimson-haired girl still rushed to hide behind the police chief to escape the ‘evil clutches’ of the woman squeezing her cheeks.
The poor manager almost had a stroke from sheer anger when her mascot decided to hide behind a stranger, from her! How could this little brat be so infuriating?!
Of course, if there was anyone angrier than Emilia’s manager, it had to be the woman who had first kidnapped Emilia, who had just woken up from her ‘unexpected nap’.
‘I really can’t feel my lower body anymore!’ She breathed in sharply in despair.
That crack she felt in her body before the world went dark really turned out to be what she hoped it wasn’t, no matter how she wanted to deny it. She was quite familiar with the sound, after all, having watched many disobedient dolls getting certain features disabled in the past.
It was all part of her job, she thought. But when it happened to her, instead, the woman finally realized how horrifying it was to suddenly lose control over half of her body.
Seeing the little monster who did all that pretending and hiding behind some police lady like a weak little lamb, she couldn’t even be bothered to care about herself anymore as she screamed. “Don’t let that little monster fool you!”
Although she knew that the chances of anyone believing her was low, the woman still laughed in despair. “We might not be good people, but she’s definitely not even human! She’s a threat to humanity, no, the whole world!”
The more she spoke, the more her voice became filled with conviction. “Trust me, if you let her fool you now, you will regret it! Kill her while you can!”
