Monster Paradise

As Lin Huang finished his coffee at the rooftop balcony of the cafe, Qin Wei had not even touched hers at all. After she was done with her 20 over questions, she turned off her notepad and started drinking her now cold coffee. She then slowly put her cup down.

”Thank you for giving me all the answers. Without you, I’d have had no idea how I’m supposed to write the report.” Qin Wei let out an awkward smile.

”How long have you been partnering with him?” Lin Huang asked.

”Not long, only nine months…” Qin Wei shook her head.

”However, he’s my fiancé…” Qin Wei added after keeping silent for a while.

Now it was Lin Huang who didn’t know what to say. He’d heard from Yang Ling that Wu Hao had a fiancée but he hadn’t known the fiancée was Qin Wei who was also his partner.

”He’s gone now, my condolences.” Lin Huang tried to console her.

”It’s alright, I’m not exactly sad. It was an arranged marriage by our family. Before partnering with him I’d never seen him before. Both of us were unhappy with the marriage.”

”I know he had a girlfriend that he’d known for more than 10 years, she came from an ordinary family background. His father killed the girlfriend in front of him and chopped her into pieces while forcing Wu Hao to watch while he fed the pieces to the pigs. The father told him that if he doesn’t accept the arrangement, even if he killed himself, all of the girl’s family members would have faced the same consequence.”

”Since then he’d lost himself, he would go out with different women every day. He had been like that for the past two years. He was frustrated. It was his family’s idea for us to partner up, hoping that I might be able to control him. However, he was still the same doing whatever he wanted to do. I hadn’t expected such things to happen… Although, death was probably a release to him.”

While Qin Wei didn’t have strong feelings for Wu Hao, he was her fiancé after all. Now that he was dead, not only did she have to report to Adventure Paradise, she also had to speak to Wu Hao’s family.

”That’s why you suspected him when he tried to tell you that he was not the Brain Eater yesterday?” Lin Huang asked.

”Yes, because I knew he always wanted to die. However, I was still not sure that time as it was an instinct for humans to ask to live in a crisis. When I saw his reaction as you splashed the water on him, I knew you were telling the truth.” Qin Wei explained.

”So are you writing two copies of the report for the Adventurer Organization and the Wu family?” Lin Huang finally understood why she’d asked for two answers earlier.

”The Adventurer Organization doesn’t have to know the truth as it would bring shame to the Wu family. However, the Wu family must know the truth. I should thank you for giving me two answers to some of my questions.” Qin Wei smiled and nodded.

After chatting for a while, they bid farewell to the café owner and left the cafe.

”When do you plan to leave Luoxi City?” Qin Wei asked as she stepped out of the cafe.

”In the next two to three days, how about you?” Lin Huang asked.

”I’ll leave in the afternoon since I’m done with my task, there’s no reason for me to stay.” Qin Wei said.

”If you don’t mind, please send me your contact details.” She added.

”Sure.” Lin Huang gave her Ye Xiu’s number.

After adding each other as friends, they went back to the hotel together. When Lin Huang arrived in his room, his Viridian Wolf that was laying on the floor stood up and rubbed its head against him. Lin Huang patted its head and noticed the Leech Pods still growing inside. Thinking about the Leech Pods, Lin Huang summoned Demonic Dandelion Vine. Bloody was like a red baby snake that was less than two meters long and was as thick as a thumb.

”Let’s see how smart you are; I’ll get you to learn a human language these next few days.” Lin Huang then downloaded the Union Government’s learning materials on words from the network. He placed his Emperor’s Heart Ring on the coffee table and projected the materials, allowing Bloody to read them for itself. Just like a baby snake, Bloody lifted its upper body to read all the documents that Lin Huang downloaded while Lin Huang was using Ye Xiu’s Emperor’s Heart Ring to read the news on the couch.

When it was almost 11:30 a.m., Lin Huang told Bloody and Viridian Wolf to behave themselves before heading out. Instead of lunch, he went to the Credit Bureau to transfer the 1,500 Life Crystals to Yang Ling.

Lin Huang sent Yang Ling a message. ”I’ve transferred you 50% of the reward make sure you check later.” He then found a nearby food store and had lunch before heading back. What he didn’t know was, while he was out, Qin Wei who stayed next to his room was ringing at his doorbell.

Bloody made its way to the door and peeped at Qin Wei stood outside. It had seen her last night so she wasn’t a stranger to it. It hesitated for a second but decided to open the door for her.

Qin Wei found it odd that it was Bloody that opened the door. ”Ye Xiu?” She shouted at the door but there wasn’t any response.

Just when she wanted to leave, she saw Bloody was using the tea in the cup to write something on the floor.

”Master is out for lunch.”

”A summoning monster that could write?” Qin Wei was shocked. She then realized that this vine monster must have taken the Brain Eater’s Supreme Intelligence earlier.

”Sure, I know that now. Thank you.” Qin Wei patted Bloody’s head.

”I thought he would be here so I wanted to say goodbye. Since he’s out, let him know that I’m grateful for his help for the past two days and I hope he had a good time in Luoxi City.”

Bloody nodded,

”Thank you for opening the door for me, bye!”

”You’re welcome, goodbye.” Bloody written on the floor again.

Qin Wei smiled and left. When Lin Huang returned to the hotel after lunch, Qin Wei had already left a long time before. Just when he arrived in his room, Bloody tangled his arm and pulled him to the couch.

”What’s wrong?” Lin Huang thought it was absurd.

Bloody used the water in the cup and started writing on the transparent coffee table.

”The girl next door came earlier; she was here to say goodbye to master. She asked me to tell you that she is grateful for your help the past few days and she hopes you’ve had a great time in Luoxi City.”

Lin Huang was shocked when he saw.

”Damn, you’ve learned how to write so fast?! You must be a genius now.”
