Chapter 205: Cat Adoption Tutorial (Paid)
Before he could figure out what 823786 meant, he heard a dull thud.
"Boom—Clang—Crash—"
He turned his head in disbelief to look at the steel jungle—now only four steel frames remained; everything else had fallen onto the floating island.
The four flying puppets that had been chasing and attacking the students returned to their original positions and fell silent.
Pei Hening sat on one of the frames, silently drinking her healing potion, with [Hobbs's Chainsaw] casually placed beside her.
She stared at Richard intently; she would remember him!
Richard was silent for a long time before asking, "Should I ask you or Cicisia for compensation?"
823786 looked completely innocent: "The students in Xixia didn't agree to use your teaching props, but you threw her in. She was frightened. Shouldn't you compensate her?"
Richard: "..."
When Pei Hening followed 823786 out of the floating island, her injuries had already healed.
However, her clothes were tattered and stained with blood, making her look quite pitiful.
"Student, you are free to do as you please. I'm going to find Sicily."
Pei Hening nodded; she was going back to the RV to take a shower and change her clothes.
——
She returned to the parking lot, had 002 play music, and then took her clothes into the bathroom.
After she finished showering and changed into long sleeves and pants, she heard a noise outside the car door while drying her hair with a towel and looking for a hairdryer.
Chu Xuange opened the car door and got in. He was wearing a black scarf, which revealed a pair of dark, phoenix-shaped eyes.
She asked with a smile, "Why are you dressed like that? Did you become a robber?"
Chu Xuange resignedly took off his scarf, put his coat on the hanger, and said helplessly, "Baby, I'm retiring from this life."
Pei Hening saw the wounds on his face clearly, leaned closer and smelled the blood, and asked, "The wounds on your face? Did Lu En beat you up?"
Chu Xuange wanted to smile at her to soothe her emotions, but as soon as he tried to smile, his face hurt terribly: "It wasn't him who did it, it was the teaching props he made that did it."
He raised his hand and smelled the blood on his body, saying, "Baby, I'm going to take a shower, and I'll tell you the details when I come out."
"Huh?"
Pei Hening hadn't even dealt with the clothes she'd changed out of when Chu Xuange went into the bathroom.
"Baby?"
"Are you injured today? Or is it a gunshot wound?"
He spoke urgently as he came out of the bathroom carrying Pei Hening's clothes.
Pei Hening dried her hair and said, "Well, but 823786 used a healing skill on me, so I'm fine now."
Chu Xuange's knuckles turned white as he gripped his clothes. He asked, "Why were you shot in class? Was it 823786 who hit you? Or was it Xixia?"
He couldn't accept Pei Hening being bullied and used as a target!
I absolutely cannot accept this!
Pei Hening met his reddened eyes and paused: "It's not 823786, nor is it Xixia."
"823786 and I went to audit Richard's class today. I used his teaching aids and got injured, but it's nothing."
Pei Hening took the clothes from his hands and pushed him toward the bathroom: "Okay, okay, go take a shower."
Chu Xuange pursed his lips tightly, looked down at Pei Hening's face, and nodded: "I'm going to take a shower, baby, dry your hair, 001, drive."
Pei Hening: "Understood."
001: "Yes, Master."
001 drove away from the school.
Pei Hening sat on the sofa with a hairdryer, drying her hair. She recalled the Xilin tribesman she had met today, and she needed to share this information with Li Pangui and the others.
Chu Xuange finished washing quickly. When he came out, he saw Pei Hening still drying her hair, so he went over and took the hairdryer from her.
Pei Hening leaned back in her chair and asked her, "Didn't you say you wanted to talk to me in detail? What did you mean by that?"
Chu Xuange gently lifted her hair with his well-defined knuckles and used a hairdryer to blow-dry it. The warm air blew across her hair and neck. "I want to tell you about the new teaching tool that Lu En developed. He made a wall that will counterattack me based on my attacks, and the hit rate is very high."
"It will also find my weaknesses and attack them."
Chu Xuange always thought that he didn't lack combat experience, but rather attribute points.
After today's learning, he realized that he also lacked systematic combat experience.
Some of the combat skills he learned on Earth and in the previous timeline were cumbersome and couldn't fully utilize his abilities.
Pei Hening squinted, looking lazy: "From what you've said, this prop is quite interesting."
Chu Xuange continued, "What about you? How are you going to audit someone else's class today? Don't you have any classes scheduled?"
"823786 wanted to take me to audit Rune's class, but he didn't seem to welcome us, so we had to audit other teachers' classes instead."
Chu Xuange quickly pledged his loyalty: "I would love for Baby to come and sit in on this."
"Yes, I know."
Pei Hening frowned and said, "I encountered a race I'd never seen before with Richard, the Xilin tribe. He said that student has been studying with him for at least a year."
"I overheard him talking to 823786 and learned that the student was someone planted by a high-ranking member of the Xilin tribe."
Pei Hening turned back to look at him: "Why are the higher-ups of those races allowed to send students into the school?"
Chu Xuange turned off the hairdryer and combed her hair with a comb: "I don't know, baby."
"I shared the message with Li Pangui."
Pei Hening opened the chat channel and found Li Pangui's private message.
[DibiDibi]: Other races' higher-ups can send their people into schools.
[Dibi Dibi]: Jin Ling teaches students from the Abyss Clan, while Richard teaches students from the Xilin Clan. I audited Richard's class today, and the Xilin Clan member I met was agile and explosive, like a catwoman who could appear in a flash.
[Drip-Drip-Drip]: Richard's students studied with him for at least a year.
[Invincible Ice Cola]: Received, recorded.
[Invincible Ice Cola]: After someone verifies this, I will record contribution points for you.
Pei Hening closed the chat window with her. The messages that were supposed to be synced had been synced. She wanted to open the school channel to see if there were any new messages, but she accidentally clicked on the public channel instead.
[WeChat steps are zero]: Has anyone ever owned a cat? Looking for tutorials. Paying! Paying! Paying!
[I also love Sprite]: You want to raise a cat? Hmm.
[Strawberry Rabbit]: Sigh, I'm thinking about my cat again. Damn highway survival! Why didn't you catch my cat when you caught me? It's probably going to be a stray now.
[Dreaming of the boss giving out bonuses]: Being a stray is considered good; those kittens that live with their owners in the city and are locked in houses are truly helpless.
[My WeChat steps are zero]: Can't anyone send me a tutorial?
[WeChat steps count is zero]: "Image"
Pei Hening raised her hand and tapped on the photo.
In the photo, an orange kitten is lying casually on [WeChat steps are zero]'s lap. Pei Hening recognizes it; it's clearly that bald, smoky-voiced bandit.
The question is, how did this guy get out of the instance?
