I Am Tired Of Being A Hero-Chapter 254: Rey
Chapter 254: Rey
This hour was already past most people’s rest time, leaving the streets bathed in silence with only the rustling wind scraping by. It was not the most comfortable sound but as the two of them walked from the police station to Arlen’s house to pick some more clothes, the sound brought a sense of peacefulness to the two of them.
A loud beep sounded and Ravi reached for his phone, opening the message that had a picture attached. It was from Sage.
’The Last portion of Cucumber Salad. You are planning to eat with the Captain so you don’t want this, right?’ There was a bit of spicy cucumber salad in the bowl.
Before he could type a message, another one entered, "According to the magazines, at 18 years, a man needs as much substance as possible."
Ravi chuckled, causing Arlen to lean over to read the messages.
"Sage?"
"Who else?"
’You can have the salad. There is more soup in the freezer. Make some rice if you are hungry.’
After typing, he returned his phone to his pocket and looked at Arlen who reached out to hold his hand. The street lamps kept their watch on the side of the street, spreading a layer of pale warmth on the road beneath their feet.
"We should probably shop tomorrow. What kind of stuff does Sage and Ash like?"
"Shopping?" Ravi suddenly gasped, "Is my rich boyfriend offering to pay?"
Arlen pulled out a small black card, "Do you know what my love and this black card has in common?"
Ravi shivered, "Please...Please don’t."
"It has no limit."
You should stand by your partner in all things but at this moment, Ravi had the urge to hide.
"It has..." freewёbnoνel.com
"If you dare repeat it."
Arlen burst out laughing, causing Ravi to join him. Their laughter scared the little black cat by the corner who let out a loud cry and ran away.
The two of them looked at each other and the laughter continued. They soon reached the door and opened it. It was not just clothes; Arlen had also mentioned that he had some documents in his house that he needed to submit to the ABI.
Ravi had followed him to the police station from the hospital. One would think that the bureau was filled with ABI officers before the arrest of Kim but it could not compare to the amount of Avalon Bureau of Investigation Officers that appeared after the arrest.
They completely hijacked the case but Arlen was not upset so neither was he.
They opened the door and in that second, Ravi moved in front of Arlen.
"Great Instincts."
Arlen switched on the lights and in the middle of the room; a beautiful young woman was sitting down flipping some magazines.
Ravi did not need to guess to know who she was. The woman was beautiful with long blond hair that reached her shoulder and a pair of ocean-blue eyes hidden behind rimless glasses.
"Thank you." He felt nervous in front of this calm woman who looked like she would be unmoved even if a Nest should erupt right here.
"Rey! What are you doing here?" Arlen said and his lips instantly stretched into a smile, "You did not tell me that you were coming. What are you doing sitting in the dark for? Are you aspiring to become some modern-day vampire? Could you do it somewhere else?"
Even though Anouk was closer to him in age, the other always had a tall block of living ice making it difficult for someone to communicate with him. On the other hand, Rey thought calm was easier to tease.
Her lips moved in a half smile, "It is a pleasure to see you too, Anouk. Heard about the case with Doctor Kim. Taking down a serial killer was not easy. Good job."
Arlen raised an eyebrow; he knew just how his family believed his talents could be used elsewhere. As a child of the Sinclair family who both made gadgets for superheroes and became the best superheroes themselves, a police officer was several down a ’What I want to be when I grow up list’
"Thank you but it was not just me. Everyone worked so hard to catch the guy." He held Ravi’s hand and was about to introduce him to his sister when Rey walked towards them and placed a document on the table.
"I also came to give you this. Your transfer has been redacted. You can return to the Public Security Headquarters, you should be getting the email early tomorrow morning. We have not yet been introduced officially. Hello! My name is Reyna Sinclair."
Ravi was nervous, rightfully so, he was meeting Arlen’s eldest sister. The Sinclair family was not just like the rich family in dramas, or else they would not be able to produce a person like Arlen who shone so brightly. He took in a deep breath, "Nice to meet you. I am Ravi West, Arlen’s boyfriend."
Arlen, who had been frowning since he saw the document, suddenly smiled proudly and nodded, "Yes. Yes. My boyfriend. He is my boyfriend. "
Rey had the urge to roll her eyes but she would not do such a mannerless act outside her home. She looked at the man in front of her, he was her height, with delicate features and a pair of sharp hazel eyes. Even though he tried to conceal it, there was a tense aura about him like he was preparing for battle. The foolish Arlen next to him did not even notice it.
As the person taking over the intelligence of the Sinclair family, Rey had taken her time to investigate her brother’s boyfriend and yet it was like a fog. Four years ago, Ravi West appeared in Avalon without any ties to the Underworld or any other country.
She did not just come here to deliver the document, she found an anomaly in the report she had received of this case and she came here to assess Ravi’s personality.
"I have booked a hotel in Alstria, let’s meet tomorrow for lunch. Mr. West, you are definitely a mystery, I will enjoy getting to know you more during lunch tomorrow.’
