Early morning, the government building.
Like usual, after clocking in, Luo God learned about the "great achievements" of Huo Dou last night from her boss.
"I heard you turned the whole city upside down again last night?"
Cautiously approaching the human form of Huo Dou, Luo God seemed so petite against his burly figure.
Silently looking down at Luo God, Huo Dou nodded quietly.
"What was it this time?"
Unable to hide the curiosity in her tone, Luo God stared at Huo Dou with shining eyes.
Seeing this curious girl’s expression that seemed to relish in the drama, Huo Dou could only sigh helplessly.
"I lost my salary from last night, probably stolen by someone with supernatural powers."
"So I visited every place in the city where supernatural powers appeared."
"And then some reckless people came here to report me."
Huo Dou was telling the truth; if it weren’t for Li Hao restraining his actions, he could guarantee that those guys would have been dead by last night.
"Hmm, they really are a bunch of reckless people."
Nodding in agreement, Luo God immediately started defending Huo Dou.
"But don’t worry, with the boss covering for you, you don’t need to worry about those reports."
"If you’re still angry, I can take you to their territory later and make sure they obediently retract the report."
Looking at Luo God’s gangster-like attitude, Huo Dou suddenly felt like he might have joined a band of thieves.
"No need for that, it’s just idle gossip."
He reached out and patted Luo God’s head, a smile inadvertently appearing on Huo Dou’s face.
"Now I’m more curious about who the guy that stole my money really is."
"I heard from He Bo that you can monitor every water source in the city. Can you help me find him?"
Startled by Huo Dou’s hand patting her head, Luo God was stunned for a while before reacting.
"Of course, no problem!"
"But are you sure I can really find that thief?"
Last night, Huo Dou turned the whole city over without finding the thief, so Luo God doubted whether she could be of any help.
"Since he’s not seen in places with supernatural phenomena, it only means he’s deliberately avoiding those areas."
"So you just need to look for suspicious figures appearing elsewhere while I was active last night."
Suddenly understanding, Luo God nodded as she grasped Huo Dou’s idea.
But Luo God then showed a slightly awkward expression.
"Um... perhaps the boss didn’t explain it clearly to you. My ability isn’t that strong."
"Only by cooperating with the boss can I reconstruct the images of a water source within an hour."
"And these images can’t involve supernatural powers; otherwise, it will be impossible to find any useful clues."
Luo God’s abilities were indeed strong, but she was merely a "jack-of-all-trades" support staff.
If it weren’t for her ability massively enhancing He Bo’s capabilities, she probably couldn’t even be the logistics staff of the 749th Bureau.
"That’s not a big problem."
Calmly shaking his head, a golden card suddenly appeared in Huo Dou’s hand out of thin air.
"With this, as long as the thief is still in the city, you should be able to track his whereabouts."

.........................................................
In a certain dark alleyway in the city.
A mouse suddenly emerged from a pile of trash, cautiously looking around.
Once it confirmed there were no surveillance or dangerous individuals nearby, the mouse crawled out of the trash can and rolled on the ground.
Instantly, the mouse’s body began to transform rapidly at a visible rate until it turned into a short, strangely ugly elf.
"Cough, cough, cough..." New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭·𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢·𝗇𝗲𝘵
After forcefully coughing a few times, the ugly elf spat out a backpack stuffed with a large bundle of cash from its mouth.
If you hadn’t seen it with your own eyes, it would be hard to imagine how the tiny ugly elf could force such a large bag of cash into its stomach.
Especially with the saliva and mucus on the backpack, it looked extremely disgusting.
"Finally got rid of that guy, no one should be able to find me now."
Strenuously clearing its throat.
The ugly elf actually began to speak human language at this moment.
Judging from its clear logic and speech, it was not just any creature lacking wisdom but had intelligence approaching or even surpassing humans.
"It’s truly worthy of being a Divine Attendant capable of defeating Moloka; just the tracking ability alone is clearly beyond normal humans."
The ugly elf pondered, considering itself a notable figure on the international stage.
Yet, in this small city, it was forced to become a mouse, barely escaping the black dog’s tracking.
Fortunately, the ugly elf’s efforts were not in vain; this bag of cash could save it from years of hard practice.
Thinking of this, the ugly elf immediately lay on the backpack, assuming a greedy sucking posture.
From a perspective that normal people couldn’t see.
A stream of golden light slowly emanated from the backpack and flowed into the ugly elf.
During this process, the originally ugly elf gradually became handsome, and its hunched figure also straightened.
In just a few breaths, a tall, handsome humanoid figure replaced the previous ugly elf.
Suddenly opening his eyes, the man laughed heartily, completely not expecting such impressive results.
But then the laugh on the man’s face froze and rapidly turned to terror the next moment.
"Misfortune? Why is there misfortune?"
As if confirming the man’s words, a huge flower pot suddenly fell from the top of a tall building.
If not for the man reacting in time and dodging backward, the huge flower pot would have smashed his head.
Even so, the narrow escape left the man looking panic-stricken.
Because he knew, the flower pot was just the beginning.
While the cash in this bag carried immense fortune, for him, it also contained an irreplaceable treasure.
Yet the misfortune intermingled with this fortune would follow him like a curse.
"How could it be!? Could the God behind him actually be the Bad Luck Star?"
