Found it?
Qiao Sang was stunned.
To think that they could find it with just that description?
And so quickly?!
Qiao Sang suddenly sat up and quickly clicked into the chat app, about to reply.
At this moment, the other party sent over two new messages.
[Pei Uncle: Picture]
[Pei Uncle: Have Binglu Qia take a look to see if it’s this place]
Qiao Sang opened the picture and glanced at it.
A wooden structured detached house, with half-yellow, half-green leaves on the trees in front of it. Aside from the absence of the green Pet Beast, everything else seemed to match.
"Lubao," Qiao Sang turned and held up the phone screen with the magnified photo to Lubao, who was resting with eyes closed by the floor-to-ceiling window, and said, "Take a look and see if this is the place you’re looking for."
Lubao opened his eyes.
Despite some distance, it didn’t prevent him from seeing the photo clearly.
Lubao was stunned for a moment when he saw the photo, then his eyes "shua" lit up, and he got up and ran over in two or three steps, staring at the photo on the phone intently for three seconds, then nodded seriously and with a hint of excitement.
"Lubao!"
This is the place!
Qiao Sang was shocked. Could it really be this place?!
They found it just like that?
How did they find it?
Qiao Sang quickly replied to the message:
[Lubao says it’s right here, Pei Uncle, how did you find it?]
Pei Shipan didn’t type but instead sent over a voice call.
"Pei Uncle," Qiao Sang immediately answered.
"I have a friend whose Pet Beast can also perform memory retrieval, the difference is her Pet Beast can read braille and write down the house number," Pei Shipan explained swiftly and to the point:
"Actually, I asked for her help the day we returned but we didn’t know the exact location at that time, so I didn’t mention it to you."
So that’s how it was... Qiao Sang suddenly felt the urge to get her own Pet Beast to learn.
She glanced at Lubao beside her, then Yaobao, and finally, her gaze settled on Xiao Xunbao.
If she had to say which one of her three Pet Beasts was the most suitable for reading and learning, it had to be Xiao Xunbao...
"Xun Xun~"
Xiao Xunbao was happily using Spatial Movement to play with ants, completely unaware of his Beast Tamer’s crazed thoughts at that moment.
"Where is this?" Qiao Sang pulled her thoughts back and asked.
"It’s on an island in Fang City. Fang City is about a five-hour journey from Sea City. You’ve got competitions these next few days so you definitely won’t have time to go. I’ll take you there after your competitions are over," Pei Shipan said.
"Okay," Qiao Sang had no objections, with that distance, she indeed didn’t have the energy to go there these next few days.
"By the way," Pei Shipan’s tone suddenly grew grave, "If Binglu Qia wants to see the Feicui Mang, I suggest you don’t take her there."
Qiao Sang was taken aback, "That green Pet Beast?"
Pei Shipan "hmmed" in response.
Qiao Sang asked in confusion, "Why?"
"It’s not there," Pei Shipan said, "I checked, and six months ago it was reported for helping a wild Pet Beast sneak onto a plane, and it’s still in the Pet Beast Transformation Center."
Six months ago, helping a wild Pet Beast smuggle... Qiao Sang glanced at Lubao and then thought of something, her expression turning grave: "What about its Beast Tamer?"
"Its Beast Tamer worked at the airport and lost his job because of this incident," Pei Shipan’s voice was heavy.
Qiao Sang was silent for a few seconds, then she asked, "Pei Uncle, is there a way to get Feicui Mang out of the Pet Beast Transformation Center sooner?"
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a moment, followed a few seconds later by the sound of Pei Shipan sighing:
"If I’m not mistaken, the wild Pet Beast that Feicui Mang helped smuggle was Binglu Qia, right?"
It wasn’t hard to guess.
Why would an endangered Pet Beast from the Ancient Mist Region appear in the Yuhua Region?
Why did Binglu Qia want to go to that place?
Why would Qiao Sang want to get Feicui Mang out of the Pet Beast Transformation Center?
With a little thought, the answers to the questions became evident.
Binglu Qia was that wild Pet Beast that sneaked onto the plane; it wanted to go to that place because it wanted to see Feicui Mang, who had helped it.
Qiao Sang grew silent again, and after a few seconds, she spoke:
"I haven’t asked Lubao, but indeed, the timing of its appearance in the Yuhua Region fits."
"Lubao..."
Lubao, hearing his name, leaned his ears towards the direction of the phone.
Qiao Sang silently leaned back against the headboard.
Lubao: "..."
Pei Shipan’s voice was stern, "If the one that sneaked onto the plane had been just another wild Pet Beast, it would have been one thing, but if some people find out that the Pet Beast Feicui Mang helped was Binglu Qia, that would be serious."
"You can’t get involved in this, I’ll handle it."
Some things can be serious or not, depending on how one views them. If approached by the right person, for those in high positions, it’s actually just a matter of a word.
