After so long, Little Silver finally received a message from Master, which made him very excited. Naturally, he had to be 100% hyped up to complete the task that Master had given him.
Unless a cultivator was sitting in meditation to regulate their breathing, even they would feel uncomfortable staying up for long periods of time. But Little Silver had the heart of a holy beast, and thus wasnât too worried that he would suddenly keel over dead. However, there were still some side-effects from staying up late, like black circles under the eyes, obesity caused by a declining metabolism, depression and so on⦠But these didnât mean anything to Little Silver; as long as he drank his own blood, he would be full of energy again.
If he took the earliest spirit bus, he should be able to get to Masterâs house before noon! Previously, Little Silver had tried various ways of getting to the Wang familyâs small villa, but found that the spirit bus was the most convenient. If he flew on a sword or drove himself, he couldnât play with his phone on the road, and taxis were too expensive; he would rather spend that money on takeout.
The spirit bus was different. This sort of mass transport was more cost-efficient. Moreover, he could play games on the way! Actually, taking the subway was also good, but the Wang familyâs small villa was in too remote a location, which the subway didnât go through.
Most importantly, Little Silver really didnât want to be taken to the police station again â he had realized a very serious problem.
As long as he went out alone, he would definitely be taken to the cultivation police station for a chatâ¦
For Little Silver, the police stationâs lunchboxes already werenât anything new.
âNot going online today?â
Little Silver got on the bus. As soon as he turned on his phone, he saw that Miss Bai Qiao had sent him a new text.
*Cultivation Emulatorâ*s beta test had already entered the second round, and Bai Qiao wanted Little Silver to go over to the Internet cafe and help her test it out.
The reply she got was naturally Little Silver turning her down. âNo, Masterâs looking for me today.â
âAlright.â Bai Qiao expressed her understanding. âThen Iâll look for Old Guang and your boss.â
The âbossâ she was referring to was Beast King, which was a title that everyone had settled on after discussion to conceal his identity.
As long as Beast King was alive, there was still a chance for the holy beast race to reemerge.
They needed an opportunity; more than that, it required Beast King pulling himself together and assuming the responsibility of lifting up the race. But getting Beast King to pick himself up might not be so easy after the holy beast race had been thoroughly âpersecutedâ in the gameâ¦
Of course, as the boss, Beast King had already thought about abdicating and getting Little Silver to take over as the new âBeast King,â but Little Silver was just an 8000-year-old baby and had a long way to go before he reached the age of inheritance.
But Little Silver actually didnât care about this, and had no interest in the position of âBeast King.â
How comfortable was his life now?
Learning from Master, staying at Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortalâs place, eating takeout, drinking fat nerd happy water 1, playing games⦠how blissful was his life?
Little Silver started up Arknights. He heard that today was Bilibiliâs tenth anniversary, and Arknights was giving out a headhunting permit, five recruitment tags, and twenty mid-tier EXP cards to each player.
Little Silver thought this game was still pretty thoughtful.
He then started recruiting with the extra prizes.
In a flash of cool, dazzling animation effects â white light +1, green ticket +5 1!
Thoughtful my foot!!
Little Silver roared inwardly and stomped his foot angrily where he was sitting.
âMommy, mommy, that brother isnât wearing shoes!â A cute boy on the side pointed at Little Silverâs pure white feet. His mother had in fact already noticed them, and her face revealed some embarrassment, but she still told her child not to point at other people as it was quite impolite.
Little Silver himself knew that this wasnât a good habit, but as a pure-blooded holy beast, he didnât wear shoes in his beast form! And the most important thing was that his hooves were very hard. He was barefoot in his human shape, but the soles of his feet were so thick that he didnât feel any pain when he was walking. Conversely, wearing shoes gave him a strange sense of being bound.
Modern society was already very open; it was a personâs free choice to not wear shoes, and no one could interfere. Besides, it wasnât as if Little Silverâs feet smelled or something, and he felt that since it didnât affect anyone else, it was fine.
Just as he was thinking this, there was suddenly a very strong stench from behind his seatâ¦
It was a white collar worker in a black suit. Out of the corner of his eye, Little Silver saw this white collar brother surreptitiously take off his shoe, unnoticed by anyone else, and scratch the sole of his foot, which suddenly itched for some reason or other.
Then, the stench wafted outâ¦
The next second, everyone in the bus turned to look at Little Silver, who wasnât wearing shoes.
After glaring for several dozen seconds, the spirit bus driver uncle also couldnât take it any longer. He turned to look for the culprit who was the source of the stench, and Little Silver was the first person to catch his eye. âLittle brother, can you please put on your shoes?! Otherwise, please get off!â
Little Silver felt very wronged. âItâs not meâ¦â
âYouâre the only one without shoes on the whole bus. Who else could it be?â That shameless white collar brother sitting behind Little Silver echoed the bus driverâs sentiments.
Instantly, the whole bus flared up.
âGet off!â
âHurry up and get off! It stinks!â
âIt really isnât me!â Little Silver was furious.
He absolutely couldnât get off halfway. There werenât any bus stops on the way, and if he got off here, he wouldnât be able to reach the Wang familyâs small villa before noon.
The driver uncle pinched his nose, a resentful look on his face.
Confronted with this sort of unreasonable passenger, he wouldnât provoke him, for if he did and they scuffled, it was the entire bus of passengers who would suffer.
When the driver saw that Little Silver wasnât cooperating, he didnât hesitate to press the alarm button on the driverâs seat.
The nearest cultivation police station instructed a patrol officer nearby to hurry over, and the latter arrived at the scene roughly two minutes later.
Standing atop a flying sword, the police uncle wore a professional smile. âSir, please follow us back to the cultivation police station. We suspect that youâre carrying a biological weapon.â
Little Silver: ââ¦â
â¦
Wang Ling had asked Little Silver to come over to team up with Loopy Toad and search for the whereabouts of the black shadow army as well as help the teachers of No. 60 High find the remaining fragments of the Jade Scroll of School History. Realistically speaking, the black shadow armyâs appearance on the streets would naturally attract the attention of the cultivation police.
The shadow army and a large number of assassins had moved in from opposite directions at the same time, but hadnât hurt anyone on the street â such an act could only be labeled an utter âconspiracy.â
After the incident that day, Teacher Pan, Lotus Sun and Feather Lin had been taken to the cultivation police station to record their statements.
After detailed questioning, the three of them returned to their respective homes.
At the police station, Officer Gao studied the statements all the way until the next day. He felt that there was something fishy about the matter â maybe he should report it to his superiors.
Just as he was about to make a phone call, a familiar figure flashed past his office door.
âThe brother at the door, wait!â Gao Mu thought he had seen someone familiar.
The patrol officer in charge of escorting Little Silver walked into the office and said, âItâs like this, we found him on the spirit bus earlierâ¦â
âScrew found! Hurry up and let him go!â This was already Gao Tianâs nth time seeing Little Silver inside the police station.
And the outcome each time was a âmisunderstandingâ!
Of course, that wasnât the most important thing â the most important thing was that the police station would become short of a huge amount of lunchboxes!!
âHuh?â The patrol officer was obviously clueless.
When Little Silver saw Officer Gao inside the office, he was very happy. âAhahaha! So itâs Officer Gao! Why are you in this branch? Werenât you at Anning District Cultivation Police Station?â
âI, I was promotedâ¦â
âCongratulations! Since youâve been promoted, does that mean the canteen in this police station is bigger?â
ââ¦â
âAre there any new lunchboxes? Give me twenty, thanks.â
âYou damn⦠arenât you pushing it?â Officer Gaoâs lips twitched.
âNot really â you donât investigate the facts properly and you bring me in because of a misunderstanding every time. Iâm not asking for compensation for psychological damage, I just want something to eat. Is that too much to ask?â
Officer Gao: ââ¦â
