The Delicate Female Lead Only Wants to be Loved by the Villainous Young Ladies Chapter 406: No Fooling the Mouse

Adele left the containnt center and found Director Yashi waiting for her outside. The woman held one hand to her chest, the other raised to her wrist, gently waving a greeting. Adele hurried over.

Slightly breathless, like a friendly kitten, her fine black hair trembled with her movents. “Director Yashi, I’ve finished the interrogation!”

“Yes, and what were the results?” Yashi wanted to hear Adele recount the events herself. This was also a subtle, everyday test.

Adele faithfully relayed her entire conversation with Ain, almost verbatim, exactly as Yashi had seen and heard through the surveillance caras.

“So, Director... will you agree to the Evil God’s request?”

“Although the Bureau doesn’t yet understand why the Evil God Ain underwent such a drastic change overnight,” Yashi said, her gaze on Adele profound, “her conditions and requests aren’t unreasonable.”

“And the priority is indeed to awaken Mage Victoria.”

“I’ll tell you the final decision after the eting, Adele.”

“Do you want to attend the eting with now, or do sothing else?”

The thought of sitting stiffly through a long, nerve-wracking eting made Adele shake her head rapidly. “A-Attending a eting... I think I’ll pass...”

“Um! Can I move freely within the Enforcent Bureau?”

“Of course. Not everywhere, but with your clearance... you can explore almost any corner of the Enforcent Bureau.”

Adele mistook the “clearance” Yashi ntioned for her “mid-level operative” status. The true nature of her clearance remained unknown.

“Thank you, Director Yashi!” After thanking her, the girl parted ways with Yashi. Yashi went to the eting, while Adele purposefully explored the Enforcent Bureau.

She wanted to find the departnt responsible for managing Foreign Races. She was still worried about the mice she had rescued from the Eastern Capital’s sewers. Although mouse-girls were a sowhat peculiar existence, they were still beast-eared girls, so they weren’t repulsive. Moreover, the little one she knew was a hamster-girl.

A hamster-girl nad Xiao Su. And hamsters were undeniably cute, small, soft, like fluffy puddings, tempting one to take a bite~ They were, after all, a type of mouse bred as pets.

Thanks to Adele’s burgeoning reputation within the Enforcent Bureau, she received enthusiastic welcos and assistance whenever she asked for directions. Soon, she arrived at the “Foreign Race Resettlent Bureau.” And there, in the corner, waiting in line, she spotted the hamster-girl, Xiao Su.

Her complexion looked much better, her energy restored. She was with an elderly mouse woman with gray hair, ears, and whiskers. That must be her “mother.”

Adele politely knocked on the door and entered after receiving permission. She walked briskly towards Xiao Su. Xiao Su’s reaction to seeing Adele was no longer the initial shock and awe. Instead, she showed surprise and excitent.

Xiao Su knew that Adele had saved her and her fellow mice from that indescribable Evil God. Adele was her and her mother’s benefactor!

“We et again, Xiao Su~”

“Ad-Adele... Sister.” As if rembering sothing, Xiao Su blushed, hesitantly calling her “sister.”

Adele imdiately understood, returning a shy smile. This was the role she played in the library when Xiao Su was caught “stealing books.” She pretended to be Xiao Su’s older sister to rescue her from the librarian. This led to the subsequent series of events involving the Evil God’s capture.

Fortunately, the ending was happy. Both she and Xiao Su, along with the other mice, had a bright future.

“Are you... the benefactor Xiao Su ntioned?” the old woman beside Xiao Su asked with a kind smile, her voice trembling slightly.

Adele scratched her cheek shyly. “A-A benefactor... that’s too much, Granny.”

“I just did what I should have done.”

The old woman shook her head. She deeply understood the significance of Adele’s actions. Not only had they survived the Evil God, they would also have a peaceful resettlent area to live in with her children. Without Adele’s help, they would have either been killed by the Evil God as useless waste or lived as rats forever hiding in the shadows of the city.

But now, they could finally leave this dangerous city and go to the countryside, perhaps not exciting, but safe and stable. She bowed deeply to Adele, who looked much younger than her.

Following the old mouse woman’s bow, the other mouse-girls and mice also bowed to Adele. Unaccustod to such a scene, Adele waved her hands, flustered.

“Whoa, whoa, th-that’s not necessary!”

Finally, Adele helped the old woman up. She also spoke a few kind words to Xiao Su, encouraging her to live well and study hard, as Foreign Races could also attend special schools through education and achieve their dreams. Not like the malicious rumors spread by so, claiming that the Human Race’s establishnt of autonomous zones for Foreign Races was like raising livestock, treating them as resources to be harvested at will!

By now, many Foreign Races had adapted to human society through education in special schools, even becoming operatives or clerks in the Enforcent Bureau. Like the strong male Minotaur staff mber sitting at the desk in the Foreign Race Resettlent Bureau office. Their existence debunked those rumors.

However, Adele glanced at the “Minotaur” a few tis, receiving a slightly displeased response. “Please don’t look at like that, Madam.”

“I have a family and a pair of lovely children. I’m happily married.”

“And I’m not interested in human or Foreign Race won, nor do I have any particular interest in married won, schoolgirls, female subordinates, etc.”

“You understand what I an.”

“...I-I understand, perfectly clear!” Adele blinked sincerely. It seed this “pure-hearted Minotaur” also suffered from stereotypes.

“Next.” The pure-hearted Minotaur called out indifferently. It was Xiao Su and her family’s turn to process their resettlent docunts.

Adele gently stroked Xiao Su’s soft white hair and, of course, her fluffy ears, which Adele adored. Then, the girl reluctantly waved goodbye.

“Well, goodbye~”

“I wish Xiao Su, Granny, and everyone a bright future!” Adele offered her heartfelt blessings.

Hearing the girl’s farewell, Xiao Su’s eyes reddened for so reason. She pursed her lips and nodded at Sister Adele.

But just as ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) they turned to part ways, Xiao Su suddenly turned back and ran towards Adele, hugging her tightly from behind just as she was about to open the door. For the first ti, the impulse to hug soone so strongly beca a reality.

Adele froze, then heard Xiao Su sniffling behind her, her soft voice saying, “I’ll definitely rember... rember Sister Adele...”

“I won’t steal anymore!”

“I’ll study hard, because only then...”

“Will I have the chance to return to this city...”

“To return to Sister Adele’s side?”

The innocent young girl still didn’t understand love, only instinctively feeling a reluctant attachnt to Adele. Adele responded with a smile.

“Okay~”

“Go for it, Xiao Su.”

“Sister will be waiting for that day.”

“...No fooling the mouse?”

“Pfft, no fooling.”

“Let’s make a pinky promise.” Adele extended her pinky finger. Xiao Su did the sa.

Their pinkies intertwined. The promise was made.
