A list of enviable best friends, including Chief Superintendent Bald Qiang.

"All the evidence clearly points to them as the real culprits in that kidnapping case."

"And Bald Qiang, from beginning to end, is just an innocent, extremely unlucky prime suspect who was caught up in it all."

Yukino Yukinoshita wore a cold expression, as if stating a fact.

"But I just can't understand it."

"Their behavior has completely exceeded the logic of ordinary criminals."

"They not only dared to use violence openly in broad daylight, but also dared to confront the highest-ranking police officer of a country."

"They even dared to steal the other party's most representative law enforcement vehicle after committing the crime, and then drive away without a trace."

"This behavior... cannot be described by the word 'arrogance' alone."

"This is pure, illogical, and self-destructive 'madness'."

Yukino Yukinoshita's face was filled with utter contempt and incomprehension at this foolish behavior.

"No, under the snow, that makes perfect sense."

"A logic belonging to the lowest rungs of society, a petty thug-like logic, the purest, and also the most foolish."

Hachiman Hikigaya revealed his signature dead fish eyes and analyzed in a sarcastic tone.

"They are not like Bald Qiang, nor like us, they know what they are facing."

“They simply don’t understand the immense power that the title ‘Chief Superintendent of Police’ represents, a power capable of overturning everything.”

“In their world, the police may just be a troublesome 'trouble' wearing a specific uniform.”

"So when this 'trouble' gets in their way, they use the most direct method they can understand—that is, their fists—to solve it."

"When they need transportation, they also use the most direct method—that is, robbery—to obtain it."

"They are not crazy."

"They are just... utterly hopeless, so hopeless that they can't even calculate their own death..."

"Just an idiot."

On Hachiman Hikigaya's face was an expression full of pity and mockery, as if he had seen through the deepest folly of human nature.

[While Bald Qiang successfully escaped the police car.]

Meanwhile, Xiong Da and Xiong Er also quietly sneaked into his already deserted home.

Their purpose in coming here is to take advantage of Bald Qiang's absence and completely destroy his dangerous secret weapons used for cutting down trees.

But what they didn't know was...

A few days ago, Bald Qiang didn't find any new secret weapon boxes in the jungle.

Instead, they picked up little Dudu, who had escaped from the kidnappers.

They searched Bald Qiang's house thoroughly but found no new secret weapons.

So they simply took the only remaining bag of fresh fruit from Bald Qiang's house.

[Dudu, who had just woken up, curiously climbed off the bed and quietly crawled into the bag full of fruit.]

[Bear Two didn't notice this situation.]

He picked up the bag and took her with him back to his home.

...

The World of Boonie Bears - Security Department

In the command center, the crowd, who had just been thrown into chaos and anger by the director being knocked unconscious, the police car being stolen, and the main culprit escaping, had not yet had time to formulate their next plan when a brand new scene appeared on the screen that made all of them stop in their tracks.

"wait wait wait."

"Look."

"Those two bears have gone to Bald Qiang's house again."

"And...that little girl."

"That kidnapped, missing little girl, how...how did she get into that fruit bag?"

A young police officer pointed at the screen, his expression filled with panic and confusion.

When he saw Xiong Er, completely unaware, casually hoist the bag containing Dudu onto his shoulder and swagger back to his lair, the entire command center erupted in an even greater panic than before.

"Oops."

"This is completely terrible."

A senior police officer wore an extremely solemn expression.

"These two bears aren't exactly benevolent animals either."

Have you all forgotten?

"In the footage from just a short time ago, they took advantage of the opportunity when Bald Qiang was arrested to loot all the things in his house, from the TV to the refrigerator."

"Their behavior is essentially no different from that of a burglar who breaks into a house."

"Now, that little girl is in their hands..."

His words sent the hearts of everyone present plummeting to the bottom.

"...Trouble."

“When one wave doesn’t subside, another wave arises.”

The young chief inspector, looking at the chaotic, interconnected accidents on the screen, revealed an unprecedented expression of anxiety and panic.

"Although Bald Qiang is a criminal, at least we can see from his behavior that he did not have any direct malice towards that girl."

"But what about these two bears?"

"They are wild beasts."

"It is a dangerous existence that cannot be fathomed using the common sense and laws of our human world, and is full of uncertainty."

On the other side, in the quiet bear den.

[Bear Two happily took an apple out of the bag and ate it with gusto: "This fruit is so delicious! If you mix it with a little honey, it'll be a delicious fruit salad!"]

[Bear Big, standing to the side, corrected, "That's called a fruit salad. Bear Two, if you don't know, don't talk nonsense."]

[Bear Two said憨憨地, "They're all pretty much the same anyway."]

He reached into the bag to grab another piece of fruit, but this time, he accidentally grabbed little Dudu, who was hiding among the pile of fruit.

He was startled and quickly withdrew his hand: "My goodness, what is that thing?"

[Dudu giggled, climbed out of the bag, and picked up the small toy water gun.]

[Bear Two, frightened, placed her on the ground.]

Xiong Er looked her over carefully and said in surprise, "Xiong Da, look, why is she wearing Bald Qiang's clothes?"

Xiong Da also frowned warily, guessing, "Could this... be the latest humanoid secret weapon that Bald Qiang has developed?"

The two bears grew increasingly frightened and immediately hid outside the tree hollow, secretly observing the situation.

Seeing that they had all run away, Dudu, left alone in the cave, started crying loudly.

[Bear Two became even more terrified: "Bear Big, look, is she going to make a sound and attack us?"]

[Bear Big listened carefully and said, "This doesn't seem like it. She... she seems to be really crying. Bear Two, you go and comfort her."]

Xiong Er was dumbfounded: "What?!"

"Go quickly," Xiong Da urged.

Hearing this, Xiong Er had no choice but to approach Dudu, who was crying loudly, slowly and cautiously.

But in his nervousness, he accidentally stepped on an apple on the ground, slipped, and fell heavily to the ground.

[Dudu, who was crying loudly, immediately stopped crying and ran happily towards him when she saw his comical appearance.]

Then, she immediately lay down on Xiong Er's furry, soft belly, reached out her little hands, and began to curiously and happily pinch his chubby cheeks.

[Bear Two was caught off guard by her sudden "attack," leaving him both amused and exasperated. He could only plead for help, "Bear Big, come help me quickly!"]

"They're here, they're here."

[Bear Big rushed over immediately and lifted Dudu, who was riding on Bear Two, up in one swift motion.]

[Dudu, lifted into the air, immediately burst into loud crying again.]

Left with no other choice, Xiong Da carefully put her back.

[Dudu immediately smiled happily again, continuing to lie on Xiong Er's body, joyfully pinching Xiong Er's soft cheeks.]

[Although, at first, the two of them were very afraid of this human baby of unknown origin dressed as Bald Qiang.]

However, after spending a short time with her...

They discovered that Dudu didn't seem to be in any danger.

Soon, the two kind bears completely opened their hearts and happily played with the adorable little Dudu.

After playing for a while...

[Bear Big took a deep breath and said seriously, "Bear Two, have you had enough fun? We should take her back."]

[Bear Two was having a great time playing when he mischievously stuck out his tongue at Bear Big and said, "Hehehe..."]

Unexpectedly, Dudu, who was standing next to him, also copied him, sticking out her tongue at Xiong Da and saying, "Lelouch..."

【"you."】

Xiong Da was somewhat angered by their combined provocation.

But Xiong Er said in a very gentle, almost pleading tone, "Xiong Da, look how cute she is! Let her stay a little longer and play with me."

【"this……"】

Looking at the heartwarming scene before him, Xiong Da scratched his head, somewhat hesitant.

"Please, Big Bear, okay?"

[Bear Two blinked his innocent, large eyes and pleaded.]

"Okay, okay, okay."

Xiong Da finally agreed.

"That's fantastic, Big Bear!" Little Bear exclaimed excitedly.

Then, they took Dudu and got into a small wooden boat on the riverbank, where they happily played in the clear water.

39th Chief Superintendent: This Bald Qiang might actually become my best friend.

"……call."

“They…they didn’t hurt her.”

"They...are actually playing with her?"

When he saw Xiong Er's comical fall and Du Du's adorable expression as she went from tears to laughter, a young police officer finally let out a long, heavy sigh of relief.

He wore a look of relief, as if his heart, which had almost stopped beating due to excessive tension, had finally resumed its normal function.

"It seems... our previous judgment was completely wrong."

"These two bears, although their behavior is a bit...savage, they like to rob Bald Qiang's things, and even dare to play tricks on the director..."

"But their nature doesn't seem to be bad."

"Look at them, the cautious, clumsy, bewildered tenderness they show when facing that unarmed human cub."

Another senior police officer also wore an expression of complete relief, his voice filled with joy.

"...Not a bad person?"

"maybe."

The young chief inspector watched the heartwarming scene on the screen—three figures, one adult and two children, playing happily together on a small wooden boat by the river—and his usually tense and cold face finally softened.
