Girls' Frontline: My Apocalypse with Dolls

But this is how he answered...

"My opinion is that it's better to get a dog."

.......

"hahahahahahahahahahaha!!!"

Rosalia pounded the bar and laughed loudly, causing all three pairs of eyes to turn to this girl who had absolutely no sense of decorum, completely speechless.

"Did you hear that? Hahaha, maybe we should get a dog, it's hilarious..."

She laughed for almost ten seconds without stopping, then Se-na's expression returned to normal.

Luo Fan chimed in, "That's true. If I feed a dog, it'll never die. What else can you do besides play the violin?"

I realized I'd gone a bit too far, but I still couldn't help but laugh along.

"Pfft..."

A snickering sound seemed to come from behind them. The three turned around and saw Ying Que concentrating on wiping the table, glancing back every now and then.

Shina wanted to refute, but upon closer reflection, what the other person said did seem to make a valid point...

"Well, anyway, I can do a lot of things, you'd never guess! Didn't I say before that I could help you? You'll see when the time comes. It'll be easier for me to move around if I stay here, won't it?"

"What action?"

Yingque was drawn to Shina's answer and turned around.

"Nothing, nothing, she's just talking about her performance!"

If Yingque hadn't stopped investigating, Luo Fan would have almost thrown a punch.

"Do you know what you're talking about? What actions you're taking? Do you know what I want to do?"

Luo Fan deliberately lowered his voice, speaking excitedly.

She knew perfectly well that she didn't want Yingque to know too much, but Shina said it again here.

This time, Shina was a bit smarter: "I know, you're going to go into business later, right? You'll definitely be attending parties and events. When music is needed, I'll definitely be one of the performers there. My friends and I are quite well-known in the New York classical music scene! As for how to help you then, you'll naturally know."

"But what would I need a musician for?"

That's the real problem.

Shina finally started to get anxious: "Oh, how should I tell you? You definitely won't believe me, but I really can do it..."

"Then tell me?"

"Tsk..."

The two argued back and forth for a long time without reaching a conclusion, when Rosalia suddenly interjected...

352 Departure

"She can actually be very helpful."

???

Rosalia said this, picking a watermelon from her glass and eating it.

Luo Fan became interested again: "What do you mean?"

He was somewhat willing to listen to Rosalia's explanation, since they had become quite familiar with each other, and some of her words had indeed come to pass.

"Literally speaking, she's quite capable of doing a lot of things. As for what she's done and how she did it, I think the girls around you should know better. Besides, her methods are harder to detect than yours."

Regaining her former mysterious aura, Rosalia crossed her legs and moved a few steps closer to the inside of the bar.

What are you talking about with those young girls? You clearly look shorter and younger than them...

"I think you should wait until you're taller before calling them that..."

"What do you mean?"

"No no......"

Luo Fan chuckled to herself, never expecting her to get angry sometimes.

Luo Fan picked up his glass again and refilled the other person's. He then asked, "So, back to the main point, do you think I should let her stay, because she can indeed help me with certain things?"

"Well, my suggestion is to keep her, but the final decision is up to you. And even if you don't keep her, she will still express her sincerity in this way, am I right, Shen'a?"

"..."

Rosalia always seems to bring up Sena in the middle of a conversation, which makes Sena's condition worse every time she is mentioned.

However, Se-na's demeanor seemed to indicate that she had tacitly agreed.

Luo Fan pondered for a moment, then looked up: "Alright, there's an attic upstairs now, not particularly big, but it should be enough..."

Upon hearing Luo Fan's answer, a glimmer seemed to reappear in Shi Na's previously somber eyes.

"But let me observe for a while and see what you do. Also, the person behind you needs to agree."

When he spoke the second half of the sentence, Luo Fan deliberately raised his voice.

Yingque turned around, looking very puzzled.

"Me? What's wrong? Agree to what?"

"Oh, no, I was just saying."

Luo Fan chuckled twice, then looked at the girl in front of him again.

Sure enough, Se-na became depressed again.

Of course, we'll have to wait and see for a while; we can't just give up so easily, even though the other party did help us before...

Rosalia didn't tease her this time and continued drinking her wine.

This time, however, he drank it all in one gulp, then got up and prepared to leave.

"That's enough for today. I've delivered what I needed to, and seen what was interesting. I should go now, otherwise your girls might get anxious when they see me. And you, Shina, let's go. He said it will be some time, and besides, I need to talk to you..."

Before leaving, she took Shina with her, and the two of them left together.

I feel like I didn't get any useful information this time...

Alright, let's use this time to talk to Yingque about tonight's events...

......

"Que'er?"

Luo Fan remained seated behind the bar, speaking gently.

"Ok?"

"come here."

"Oh, here it comes!"

She put away her cleaning tools and then jogged to the bar to sit opposite Luo Fan.

After sitting down, her first question was, "Who were those two people just now? Were they friends?"

"Uh, I guess so, but I'm not sure..."

Luo Fan gave an ambiguous answer, after all, even he himself couldn't give a clear definition of these two people right now.

He could be considered a friend, though not entirely, since he did receive some benefits from it.

Actually, there's something I wanted to tell you...

Luo Fan had intended to make himself appear as sad as possible, but to his surprise, when he actually spoke, he seemed to really get into character.

"what's up?"

Judging from the other person's demeanor, Yingque seemed to have guessed something, but she still had to show the other person her best smile.

"Didn't you say you were going on a business trip? Tonight, I'm leaving with some of them."

"Really? That's a bit fast..."

"Hmm, it is a bit fast..."

The military isn't always available, so I need to get in as soon as possible.

So, all I can say is, I'm sorry...

"It's still uncertain how long it will take; it might take at least one or two weeks."

"So long? What kind of business trip is it?"

Luo Fan hesitated for a moment, then replied vaguely, "Well...it's business-related. I'm going to discuss some things with my partners, as well as issues related to future development. I might also need to conduct some on-site inspections..."

It was indeed an on-site investigation...

He was not in a good state and did not expect Yingque to ask about this, so his answer was not very coherent.

But Yingque still believed in him as always.

"Okay, then you should work hard and strive for success at work as soon as possible so you can relax a bit. Also, try to come back and spend time with me whenever you have free time. I'd like to go back to China with you so my mom and old classmates can meet you..."

Even though the answer wasn't very optimistic, Yingque still kept her smile and offered her best wishes to Luo Fan.

Luo Fan was stunned for a moment, but still nodded vigorously.

"Yes, I will. I'll be back as soon as possible."

He had no choice but to accept this decision.

Whether stopping Umbrella is more important or accepting the status quo is better, he himself is not sure.

However, the feud had already been formed. If he remained complacent, Umbrella would inevitably make a move sooner or later, putting Yingque in danger as well. He had to find an opportunity to seize the initiative; at the very least, he couldn't allow Umbrella to act too arbitrarily...

No one wants to choose between duty and family, and he was no exception.

......

20:54pm

Mondragon found Lovan alone on the balcony.

Her eyes are very similar to an AK15...

“Commander, I request to temporarily join the Dark Tide. I hope to have the opportunity to act alongside you and ensure your safety.”

"……Can."

21: 14pm

While Yingque was taking a shower, Luo Fan seized the opportunity to gather everyone involved in the operation and secretly left the bar.

"Commander, is it too late to leave now? The military operates 24 hours a day?"

Barrett, sitting in the driver's seat, asked in a low voice, glancing at the man beside him every now and then.

Luo Fan leaned against the window, seemingly out of sorts.

"Yes, their business hours are at night. As long as we arrive before 5 a.m., they will take us in."

"understood."

It's been a while since I last fired a gun, and I don't know if I've gotten rusty, but the potion is making a noticeable difference in my strength.

With a little force, breaking an arm shouldn't be too difficult...

Moreover, this time, the teammates are not the familiar AR Squad, 404 Squad, or Defiant Squad, but a newly formed "Dark Tide".

However, Luo Fan believed in their abilities.

It's definitely no weaker than the three core squads...

P.S.: I have an exam tomorrow, so I'm taking a day off.

Also, please give me some tickets, the kids are running out of food...

353 Get on the bus

At 21:37 p.m., the group arrived at New York International Airport and were given the wristbands that Lofan obtained from the tablet. They successfully passed through security and boarded the plane to Denver.

There weren't many passengers on the plane, probably because the large-scale outbreak in Colorado had caused widespread panic. Although it wasn't completely uninhabitable, not many people probably felt safe there, so they became quite conservative.

Excluding Luo Fan and the girls, there were only about ten people on the plane, but since they had bought first-class tickets, the number of people didn't affect them much...

"Alpha, drink less. You still have a mission later. Don't be too tired to walk."
