Chapter 837: Chapter 610: Sir, Where Are We Going? The girl murmured softly, afraid that all this was a dream and a louder voice would shatter it—joy, fear, hesitation, sweetness… All these complex emotions finally condensed into crystalline tears glistening in her eyes. The sharp glint in Mu Fan’s eyes completely vanished, replaced by a gentle look, as he casually dropped the motionless Sheriff Corbett from his hand. He watched this girl with a face of fatigue yet displaying strength between her brows, his gaze carefully scanning the shy but joyful face of the girl. Finally, after confirming there wasn’t a single scar on Nuonuo’s face, he revealed the gentle smile that hadn’t been seen for so long. Just like the sunny warmth when she first met him. “I’m here.” Three light words were spoken. The girl looked stubbornly at the young man with a gentle smile in front of her. Her tears started rolling down her eyes, yet she didn’t lift a hand to wipe them. She just wanted to take a good look at the figure she had longed for so deeply. She finally believed this was real. Biting her lip slightly, the girl tried hard to appear stronger and to cover up the panic on her face. “You… why are you here? I’m fine.” Mu Fan shook his head, saying nothing. Seeing this, Nuonuo realized that Mu Fan had long known everything. She gazed dumbfoundedly at the charming figure with the gentle, pleasing smile in front of her. “Sir, Nuonuo doesn’t want to be the little girl who needs you for everything anymore.” “A fledgling must face hardships to grow strong. Nuonuo only knows she’s lacking, so I strive to endure all this. I want to help you, and I can do it myself.” Mu Fan stepped forward, lifted his hands, and in the stubborn and longing gaze of the girl, cupped her cool little face. His thumb gently wiped away the rolling tear, and Nuonuo stayed still, letting his slightly rough fingers caress her cheek. As their eyes met, Mu Fan softly spoke, “I know.” Without waiting for her response, Mu Fan broke into a gentle smile, his voice wafting like a gentle spring breeze: These words instantly struck down the strong walls in Nuonuo’s heart, bringing tears cascading down her radiant face like rain. On the other side of the distant starry sky, wasn’t she also longing for him too? “Crying like a raccoon isn’t pretty,” Mu Fan said with a grin; it was the first smile Mu Fan showed in twenty days. The girl smiled through her tears and quickly wiped her fair cheeks. When Mu Fan stood truly before her, an indescribable sense of immense security enveloped her entirely. At this moment, Nuonuo finally let go of all disguises and defenses. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ novel⟡fire.net Mu Fan carefully cradled the precious girl before him, noticing the questions in her eyes that were ultimately reduced to one sentence: “Now everything has me.” Six words, full of powerful confidence. As he spoke, Sheriff Corbett, lying on the ground, let out an involuntary gasp. His throat was so uncomfortable just now that he wanted to cough, but he didn’t dare force it. He had no doubt about the correctness of what this guy said. If Wang Nuonuo hadn’t appeared just now, he really would have died. And Nogkid, who had been quietly supporting him from behind, dared not make a sound. Compared to his superior, Nogkid realized more deeply. The puddle of Luther already proved Mu Fan’s unchecked terror. A person wielding immense strength yet lacking reverence for rules simply wasn’t someone people like them could provoke. The girl’s quiet gaze had remained on Mu Fan from start to finish, nodding obediently when she heard Mu Fan’s voice. Just like that night when she had sunk into complete despair, Mu Fan had said the same words to her. Pulled her back from the brink of collapse and destruction. The girl softly spoke one word, choosing to trust without reservation. Mu Fan nodded, turned around, and looked down at the collapsed Corbett on the ground. Seeing this, the clever girl gently tugged on Mu Fan’s sleeve from behind, “I’m fine, thanks to Sheriff Corbett’s care these days.” Upon hearing these words, the awakened Sheriff Corbett truly shed tears of escaping sure death. The moment the girl spoke, the killing intent in the young man’s eyes dissipated without a trace. Grateful, he nodded desperately, “Thank you, Miss Nuonuo, thank you, thank you!” There was nothing more precious than life, and he really didn’t expect this girl to plead on his behalf in the end. Both crying and laughing, Corbett suddenly remembered something, hurriedly searched his body with his hands, and found a black card to hand over with both hands. “Miss Nuonuo, here’s your card. I didn’t spend a dime, I assure you, I…” “No need, this was a normal transaction. Thank you, Sheriff Corbett, for your care. Can you release my friends now?” The girl shook her head. “Ah?” He looked up in astonishment, his heart hanging again. Not accepting this card, did she still intend to pursue it?! Cold sweat beaded on his forehead once more. “I’m just here to get people, just do as she says.” Mu Fan said calmly. After speaking, he glanced at Chief Nogkid, who stood like a statue beside him, and reached out his hand. Like waking from a dream, the Level Three Police Chief hastily handed over the identity card he had been gripping tightly. In these last few minutes, this card had been his lifeline! It seemed now he finally saved his life. “Let them go, I’ll release them right away, and I’ll see you all off,” Corbett said hastily. He then shakily picked up the Sky Communication device, quickly ordering the release of the Loki Heavy Industry members confined in other rooms, and specially emphasized to see them off as carefully as if sending off his own parents. Ignoring the sheriff, Mu Fan looked at the girl behind him, reached out his hand, and said gently and calmly: “Let’s go, from now on, justice… I’ll get it back for you.” The girl nodded softly, placing her delicate, fair little hand gently into that rough hand that gave her infinite security. The figures of the man and woman had long walked out before Corbett finally scrambled up from the ground. “Sheriff… what about us?” Chief Nogkid cautiously inquired. “You don’t know anything.” Corbett looked at Nogkid with a grim face, speaking in a warning tone. With quick wit, Nogkid instantly agreed without hesitation; he had just seen and heard many things he shouldn’t know, so this pledge of allegiance now became particularly important. To attain a position of sheriff, who isn’t ruthless and shrewd? Corbett nodded, “Don’t inquire unnecessarily, go tidy up.” Once he was alone here, Corbett took out the Sky Communication device, his expression shifting. He finally made a decision! This matter, he decided to report to the Gale family, fulfilling his duty to the utmost. Then report normally to the Defense Department. He absolutely wouldn’t involve himself any further. After pressing several numbers, the Sky Communication connected. “Lord Nigel, it’s Corbett, a situation just occurred. A Federation officer forcibly broke into the station and took the girl away, with two casualties in the station. I’ve already reported the situation to the higher department…” He listened quietly to the merciless scolding over the Sky Communication, then answered with two meek “hmm”s before hanging up with a cold face. His finger pressed again towards the shortcut contact button for the upper department. Corbett looked up at the sky; the sky above Mukana Planet was especially blue. His cautious survival till now depended on the ability to navigate all sides and those sharp eyes. That casually dressed Federation officer was definitely a tough character… Before the matter was completely resolved, whoever cared to meddle could go ahead; anyway, he didn’t want to die. “Sir, where are we going now?” With fingers interlocked, the girl lifted her radiant face to look at his side, smiling brilliantly. “77th Star Ring, West Cold Auction House.” “I want to seek a… monumental justice for you.” Mu Fan’s indifferent eyes looked off in a certain direction in the sky.
