Chapter 009: Poor Performance

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

Both regretful and frustrated, with a gentle and guiding demeanor, it is as if one is on the verge of crying and pounding the wall

Kirk was able to notice that the woman in front of him finally came to her senses

The robber abandoned a more convenient escape route and instead took the unnecessary step of circling in front of me, feigning a shot.

Stand on tiptoe

Kirk not only noticed the figure approaching against the current from the diagonal behind him amidst the flow of the crowd, but also observed the homeless man in the corner over the woman's shoulder

A brief touch

No matter how difficult, passive, or dire the situation may be, it is still possible to turn the tide.

There are still matters that need to be addressed

What about the character setting

Either anger, excitement, frustration, greed, ferocity, tension, or anxiety

Pop!

The pear blossoms are adorned with rain, and I find them still endearing

Just as Kirk was about to release his right hand, the woman in front of him made another sudden move.

The deviation in the rates of movement and standing still among the crowd causes the gaps between the surging masses to open up sparsely. In a fleeting moment, one can catch a glimpse of a homeless man sitting cross-legged on the ground smoking. The passing scene captures some indistinct information, but before it can be further discerned, it is once again obstructed by the crowd.

He.

After obediently nodding to confirm the answer, fear and panic tightly gripped the heart, and only then did one slightly realize what had happened, with a face full of astonishment

The devil whispers

Ah. There are indeed too many vulnerabilities, where should we start from

In the aftermath of the shock, one can still sense a calmness amidst the crisis; the smile that reappears is starkly different from before, lacking the innocent clarity, instead revealing a hint of wickedness and allure that can be caught in the depths of the eyes, akin to Lucifer unfurling his black wings after falling from heaven to hell

It seems that the next step is to empty the pockets, and possibly contribute all the family assets as well

The woman before me is filled with questions: Who am I? Where am I? What are we doing?

Kirk, after a moment of contemplation, wore a serious expression on his face, as if he were troubled by a word puzzle.

Rising on tiptoe, she leaned close to Kirk's ear and gently blew a breath, fragrant as orchids, a slight itch, a hint of warmth, and whispered softly.

Calm and undisturbed, with the wind still and the waves tranquil

Kirk took half a step forward, slightly closing the distance, leaned down close to the woman's ear, and spoke in a voice only the two of them could hear

Kirk pulled open the hem of his coat with his left hand, revealing the badge at his waist

Please, I beg you. I implore you!

Kirk shook his head gently, his face filled with heartache and helplessness. Then, gritting his teeth, it seemed that after a brief struggle, he finally made a difficult decision - to publish the book.

However, it is seen that

It seems that Kirk is the last lifeline.

What ... ... what? What are you saying?

Today, the situation seems to be somewhat different

To be frustrated that someone does not live up to one's expectations

However, Kirk was not prepared to go any further, after all, he had real work to attend to this morning, and he did not have time to play the role of an exemplary citizen

Close

However, experiencing a live performance of a scam up close, just like just now, is indeed a rare and authentic experience

It is evident that the woman pressed the pause button, as if she were shutting down and rebooting, struggling to regain her composure amidst the raging winds and towering waves, her smile rising once more

In a state of confusion and bewilderment, the woman instinctively nodded her head, as if nodding was the correct choice in the atmosphere of the scene

The situation has once again reversed

The woman firmly grasped Kirk's hands, her slender wrists seeming as if they could snap with the slightest bend, her emaciated figure appearing as if it could be swept away by the wind, and her tearful eyes bore the weight of all hope upon Kirk.

Friend! A good story requires a compelling character setting. Is it the diligent and upwardly striving poor student, or the vain and uneducated young lady? Your character settings are so rough that they could practically scratch your face, truly lacking the dedication of a *picture* book

Fine, fine, give me a little compensation, and I will reluctantly create a script for you.

Kirk swiftly seized the woman's wrist, and one could distinctly hear her gasp in surprise, before he closed the distance once more

However

False

Indeed, this brings both advantages and disadvantages. The vast and overwhelming amount of information is truly excessive, and at times one may wish to close their eyes and take a break to relax. He has not yet found a way to effectively filter out valid information from invalid information, as a multitude of details rushes in.

If one is a professional con artist, should they not be more skilled and not be so easily exposed

Oh. I think you might need to accompany me to the police station

One can even feel the bustling gazes being cast over, yet the hurried footsteps do not pause, and the crowd continues to surge forward; no matter how thrilling the story may be, it cannot halt the march of the office workers to their jobs.

In this situation, the tide has turned, and at this moment, one can catch a glimpse of the woman's lips gently curving upward, unable to conceal her pride; clearly, this is her trump card

So, if I were to shout "indecent behavior" right now, what do you think would happen

Immediately!

The woman was momentarily taken aback, and the curvature of her lips was clearly visible, gradually becoming stiff. The panic and fear in her eyes could no longer be concealed

Chanel? Are you treating me like a tourist? In New York, no one carries a Chanel while taking the subway

cop

By the way, the man who is gradually approaching from the diagonal behind my right side, he must be targeting my wallet, right

Nothing. Absolutely nothing

Moreover, she is not fighting alone; she has faith in her support and does not need to panic

Originally, Kirk's professional skill was an exceptional sensitivity to details, and now it has reached a new level, where not only the details but also his perception of the world and intuition have become clearer

tried and tested

Then

This is the ability gained after arriving in New York

That tranquility is unsettling

She did not think much of it, believing that Kirk had fallen for the trap, thinking she had finally gained the upper hand. No longer did she display any sweet or pitiful expressions. As she retreated continuously, she revealed a broad smile towards Kirk, like a blooming hibiscus, and then she raised her voice to call out.

A sudden and violent storm struck with a loud crash, overwhelming the woman in front of me, leaving her dazed and momentarily unable to think clearly

Without any warning, the woman kissed Kirk on the cheek

For private detectives, the most important items are various identity concealment documents, ranging from NYPD to FBI to ICE, everything is available. I never expected that today they would come into play in such a manner

But fortunately, Kirk had no such intentions, a smile curving at the corners of his mouth, revealing eight neatly aligned white teeth. With a change in tone, the entire atmosphere took a one hundred eighty degree turn, transforming from comedy to suspense.

From the moment I appeared, your gaze was fixed on my position, and you were not even looking for the robber

Observe in all directions and listen from all sides

Furthermore, I am not certain whether your script has been plagiarized from Colombian soap operas, but there is truly no need for you to seek help so passionately, with your hair flipping and winking, exuding charm in every way, as if you were just missing a segment of Spanish rap.

Looking at the man before her, she attempted to create distance and regain control. She believed that they could still escape unscathed and even seize the man's wallet. However, she found no trace of emotional fluctuation in the man's eyes.

In the next moment, the woman took the opportunity to bump Kirk with her shoulder, effortlessly breaking free from his right hand, which he was already prepared to release.

Moreover, a paper? Which century do you live in? Who still prints papers to carry around? And then stuff it into a briefcase?

Hold your breath

She does not retreat but instead advances

The atmosphere momentarily paused
