Chapter 1: Police Officer Zhou Sen

Daowai, Huifangli Ningxiang Pavilion

Brother, be careful, there are several roads in between, let's call a car instead. Ye San'er chased after him, dodging a speeding car that rushed by.

Such harsh words coming from the lips of a delicate and beautiful woman carry a unique charm

At this moment, even the dullest nerves would sense that something was amiss, and Zhou Sen, who was about to rise, suddenly changed his expression slightly.

At that moment, a sudden rustling sound emerged from under the quilt, as if a hand had touched an inappropriate place, and immediately after, a delicate and charming face, both alluring and playful, appeared.

"That should be enough, Young Master Zhou. When you become the director of the Ice City Police Department, perhaps I will give you a chance." Bai Yulan's beautiful eyes widened, and a hint of coldness flashed in her gaze as she said, "If you keep looking around, I will gouge them out!"

Four eyes meet each other

Little Bug Brother

This is still Ice City in 1938, with at least seven years remaining until the victory of the War of Resistance against Japan

At worst, one can resort to eating soft rice with a hard approach

She certainly knows the people who scheme against her, but does she really think that using such despicable means will force her to submit?

Hurry up, if there is something to say, say it. I still need to go back and catch up on some sleep. Zhou Sen's expression softened slightly, his hand on his chest dropped down, and he yawned. At this moment, he didn't want to think about anything, just wanted to go home, have a bite of hot food, and then enjoy a good sleep.

This is an alley where few people usually walk

Is that calling oneself

This is almost original sin

"I told you to stop smoking, yet you refuse to listen. It will be confiscated!" Zhou Sen waved his hand, pulled the door open, and strode out.

He is not the kind of man who would deny his responsibilities just because he has put on his thermal underwear

Upon closer inspection

"You actually dare to threaten me..." Bai Yulan's expression changed slightly, as she had somewhat underestimated this wayward young master, not expecting him to possess such courage and insight.

Zhou Sen, put on your clothes and get out of here quickly

It is entirely two different living environments

In an instant, my mind was in a state of chaos; this is not a case of pie falling from the sky, but rather a heavy iron weight crashing down on my head. It would be mild if it only caused a bump, but the likelihood of it being fatal is high.

What the hell, what era is this, and there are still people using this

With my heart in my throat, I gently lifted the blanket with my hand and peeked inside.

Bai Yulan lay on his chest, seemingly digesting the situation. The blush on her delicate face quickly faded, and her eyes turned cold: "Have you seen enough? How much longer do you intend to linger in my bed?"

It is somewhat harsh, but it is much better than the taste of the cigarettes I used to smoke. The feeling of being a ten-year veteran smoker is unmistakable

Crispy, crispy

"By the way, do you have anything to eat here? I'm hungry..." In the next moment, Zhou Sen's momentum deflated.

The eyes are half-closed, creating a narrow slit

She truly cannot do anything to Zhou Sen at this moment. A small lack of patience can disrupt a grand plan. If she had not learned to endure, both she and this Ningxiang Pavilion would have long been devoured, leaving not even a trace behind.

"I said, Ye San'er, what are you doing? Are you not looking where you are going? Look at what you have done to me!" Zhou Sen had a pained expression on his face, rubbing his chest, and decided to take the initiative.

Suddenly stopping and turning around, a bulky figure resembling a bear charged directly towards him.

It is so damn cold, he has an impulse to open the door and go back, it is much warmer inside, and there is a beauty.

I moved slightly, something feels off! There is someone under the blanket!

I can leave, but Bai Yulan, since we are both in this situation, remember this: I will be responsible for you!" Zhou Sen also put on his clothes, walked over, and boldly hooked Bai Yulan's chin with his right index finger, gazing intently, speaking each word clearly.

The body feels a bit sore, as if it has been emptied out

"Zhou Sen, do you want to die?" If Bai Yulan's gaze could kill, Zhou Sen would have been dismembered at this moment.

The cold wind blew, and my mind became much clearer.

Changing faces is faster than turning pages

... ...

Calm down a little

Come here, help me light my cigarette

The bastard... Bai Yulan was extremely angry, nearly biting her silver teeth in frustration, and before leaving, she did not forget to mock herself a little.

Just consider it as being bitten by a dog

Suddenly, a memory that did not belong to him surged into his mind, overwhelming him like a tsunami. He felt a momentary lapse, his head swelling as if countless steel needles were piercing into it, causing such pain that the veins in his neck bulged, yet his body remained unable to move.

As for the rest, to hell with it, since we are here, people die and birds fly to the sky, but we will not die for ten thousand years

Absolutely impossible! She, Bai Yulan, is someone who yields to softness but not to hardness, especially considering that these people would devour others without leaving a bone behind

In fact, he subconsciously avoids some acquaintances he might encounter, after all, this body is not his own. Even though he has inherited the other person's memories, the dominant personality has changed, and thus, his behavior and speech will inevitably differ.

"Ah Xiang, please help me buy some medicine later." Bai Yulan sat on the sofa, rubbing her temples. She had been schemed against, which led to this absurd night, and she could not let anyone know.

As a soul that has lived in the southern part of the country from birth to adulthood, I suddenly found myself in the northernmost region of my homeland, and it was eighty years ago.

In the early morning, a young hand slipped out from under the embroidered quilt adorned with mandarin ducks

No, Little Bug Brother, I truly did not mean it." Ye San'er quickly approached, both flattering and apologizing.

Little Bug Brother, Little Bug Brother...

Having lived for thirty years, I have never been as bold as I am today. Is this what it means to experience life from a different perspective and to liberate oneself?

With such looks, which man would not be captivated? The so-called audacity of desire is nothing more than this

Bai Yulan instantly became furious, her chest rising and falling rapidly, both embarrassed and anxious. This prominent figure, renowned in the Ice City for her influence in both the underworld and the legitimate world, was not only taken advantage of by a small police officer but also had her name called out directly, which was a clear provocation.

This woman is truly a fairy, changing at a moment's notice; just a moment ago, she was threatening to hit and kill.

"Don't call me Little Bug Brother, I hate that nickname!" Zhou Sen said angrily, giving Ye San'er a fierce glare.

Yet, I still managed to endure it.

It is my subordinate, Ye San'er

"You can kill me now, but it won't be long before everyone in Ice City knows that you slept with me!" Zhou Sen felt an inexplicable tremor in his heart, but given the situation, it was impossible to back down. "Although I am just a lowly patrol officer, I am still wearing a layer of official attire. If something happens to me, you will also get into trouble. By then, will your Fragrant Pavilion still be able to operate?"

Zhou Sen suddenly felt a jolt in his heart and suddenly remembered that his original self had a nickname, called "Little Bug"

Zhou Sen wrapped himself in a thick wool coat, with the collar turned up tightly around his head, lowering his gaze like an ostrich. He opened the back door, glanced around, and then stepped outside.

This breath is being held in

It is unclear how much time has passed, but Zhou Sen felt that he had regained control of his body, yet a tremendous wave surged within his heart

Bai Yulan could not help but feel exasperated; she had never encountered such a man before. One moment he appeared to be threatening her into submission, and the next he transformed into such a rogue, utterly detestable.

There are not many people on the street, and both sides of the street are lined with European-style buildings, giving it the feel of a vintage street. Occasionally, horse-drawn carriages and pedestrians riding bicycles pass by, all bundled up tightly, making it difficult to discern their facial features.

"Get lost, hurry up and get out of here, I don't want to see you again. If I find out that you are talking nonsense outside, be careful, I will chop you up and feed you to the dogs!" Bai Yulan's hand reached for the cigarettes on the table once more, but she was still a beat too slow; that pack of cigarettes had already been swiftly pocketed by Zhou Sen.

Damn, coding all night has led to hallucinations, quickly close your eyes, after three seconds, open them again

For a woman, surviving in chaotic times is exceedingly difficult, especially when she possesses wealth that countless people covet, as well as beauty

As Zhou Sen was lost in thought, he suddenly heard a voice behind him, calling out repeatedly, as if it were following him closely. He couldn't help but quicken his pace.

Oh?

... ...

This is not right, where am I?

Northern country, Ice city

Zhou Sen was knocked off balance by him, nearly falling onto the snow-covered ground.

"Mr. Bai, regarding what happened last night, I..." Zhou Sen was extremely nervous, his tongue seemed to be tied in knots, after all, he had never encountered such a situation before

"Sister Lan, he has left," the maid Ah Xiang said as she watched Zhou Sen's figure disappear from the mouth of the alley. She then came upstairs to report the situation to Bai Yu Lan

Illusion, it must be an illusion

Like the fish that surface from the water in a state of oxygen deprivation

Wow

"How is it that you lack even this little ambition, yet still wish to be responsible for me?" Bai Yulan walked over, sat down on the chair, crossed one leg, picked up a cigarette box from the coffee table, took out a cigarette, and with a chuckle, beckoned with her little finger, exuding an indescribable charm.

Bai Yulan was slightly taken aback, but quickly regained her composure, seemingly not expecting Zhou Sen to be so bold and disrespectful

When he saw the layers of mountains inside, his heart felt as if it had been struck by lightning, and Zhou Sen was so frightened that he shivered, quickly covering himself with the blanket once again

Moreover, I unexpectedly wore a full outfit made of black dog skin; this thing will become a death token in the future. This won't do; I must find a way to shed this layer of skin

"Chong Ge, a murder occurred on Gogol Street (which should now be called New Business Street). An editor from the Songjiang Times was killed, and the higher-ups want us to go take a look?" Ye San'er was taken aback; just now, Zhou Sen's gaze was too terrifying, completely unlike the 'Little Chong Ge' he knew.

My heart was about to leap out of my throat, my mind went blank, and my eyes were as wide as copper bells

The scene before me has not changed in the slightest

The outdoor cold wind rages, and water droplets freeze into ice

A murder occurred on this one mu and three fen of land, and he, as the patrol chief, will certainly have to get involved. It is said that the "Songjiang Times" has a very deep background. Damn it, why did someone have to die while I am still in office

The fireplace is burning in the room, creating a warmth akin to spring

The person inside is probably already contemplating devouring him alive; it would be best to leave quickly. If you don't leave soon, you will truly be dismembered.

"Why didn't you say so earlier? Hurry up and leave..." Zhou Sen was also unaware that his gaze had frightened Ye San'er, and he took off running. Gogol Street was the area he usually patrolled.

The owner of the premier establishment of pleasure in Ice City, Lingxiang Pavilion, is Bai Yulan

This little gesture is too alluring, it truly is life-threatening. Zhou Sen walked over and took the cigarette from her mouth into his own hand: "Women should smoke less, this is a man's habit."

If this were to be said, where would she put her face

A shiver ran through me, and I trembled slightly; the outside is simply like heaven, while the inside is like hell

Oh dear

"What, Young Master Zhou, do you still want to take responsibility for me?" Bai Yulan said calmly as she reached out to lift the blanket, gracefully getting up and putting on a silk nightgown as thin as a cicada's wing, stepping barefoot off the bed, elegant like a white swan

This large bed, this scent, and the... ? ... how can the crystal chandelier hanging above be so dazzling?

"One must take responsibility, but it is not impossible... What is there to fear? It is not oneself who suffers the loss." Zhou Sen swallowed hard; the beauty of this troublemaker was worth it no matter what.

Speaking, Zhou Sen directly placed the cigarette in his mouth, bent down to pick up a match from the table, struck one, lit it, and took a puff

Zhou Sen took a breath, slightly turned his neck, and saw a vintage bedside lamp with a brass base, a silk shade, and a pull switch.

What a celestial visage this is, in an instant, Zhou Sen's mind went blank once again, and his heart nearly stopped beating. Drawing from his memory, he recognized the face before him that had rendered him momentarily dazed.

Why am I so unlucky?
