Beast World: The villain mermaid cub refuses to become a good person

Chapter 247 How are these strawberries grown?
Wen Jin had also considered confessing her feelings to Manman, but Shang Yu beat her to it.

Manman had just accepted Shang Yu, so she probably wasn't mentally prepared to accept herself as well.

Today wasn't a good time to begin with.

Shang Yu had been by Manman's side since childhood, but he was different. He had been away from Manman for three years, and he was not sure if Manman would accept him.

If I were to express my feelings today, it would be fine if Manman was willing, but if she wasn't, this situation would only make Manman feel awkward.

He rarely has the chance to get together with Manman.

Wen Jin lowered his eyes.

Yu Manman didn't notice Wen Jin's expression. She was surrounded by people like a star, having a very happy birthday.

The next day, Yu Manman went to another place to play with Ackerman and Shang Yu.

A simple farm.

This place is open to the public; you can go in once you pay the entrance fee.

The farm is not just a farm, but it is also very beautifully built.

The lake not only has fish but also swans, and the paths are lined with flowers. There are also swing chairs under the big trees... It's a great place to rest.

However, Yu Manman's mood was rather so-so.

This place was discovered by Tianba after he transformed into a squirrel and infiltrated Waltz's underwater zoo.

[Host! This farm is a hidden world! They're having some shady deals there!]

This place is popular with many people. It's a great place to relax and enjoy the fun of picking fruits and vegetables. After picking, you can cook them into a delicious meal on the farm.

Before the apocalyptic crisis, such places might have been common, but in the Beast World, being able to contract such a piece of land and establish a farm is a very extravagant thing! It's extremely rare!
But Yu Manman overheard Tianba complaining, "[I heard them say the farm's vegetables are going to go up in price! I was wondering what kind of vegetables they were selling, but it turns out the farm's vegetables all have hidden prices! They seem to be selling vegetables, but they're actually selling orc organs!]"

This farm is not registered in Waltz's name, but the 'items' traded there are provided by Waltz.

Some of the orcs they abducted could be used as 'animals' or as test subjects after they were no longer of use. Others could have their organs harvested and sold.

In short, they always manage to extract every last drop of value from it!
After hearing everything Tianba told her, and looking at the extremely beautiful farm, Yu Manman felt utterly disgusted.

The farm's entrance fee is very expensive; I wouldn't come here unless I were from a wealthy family.

There are also many secret codes here that most people wouldn't know.

Yu Manman came here hoping to find out more!
However, Tianba didn't know what their code was, so she could only come and try it out today.

"Guest, where would you like to visit first?"

The farm provides each guest with a dedicated waiter—this demonstrates attentiveness and allows for seamless transactions without being easily detected.

The system says that each waiter here receives a generous reward for completing a transaction, which also ensures their loyalty!

"I heard... you grow all sorts of vegetables here? I'd like to see them for myself!" Yu Manman smiled.

"Okay!" The orc gave a perfectly timed smile.

He led Yu Manman into the greenhouse, saying, "Guest, we not only have vegetables here, but also fruits! We've adjusted the environmental conditions in each greenhouse to be optimal for plant growth! Whatever you'd like to eat, we have it here!"

The orc gave a knowing, unexpected smile. "Not only do we have all kinds of fruit, but we also have all kinds of organs. Anyone wanting a match, just pay the money, get some tests done, and we'll have the results in a while! As long as the money's enough, we'll definitely bring that person back!"

Yu Manman's heart pounded.

Their arrogance, claiming they can get anything done as long as you pay enough, suggests they have considerable backing...

Unfortunately, the three of them were probably just here for fun, so we probably won't make any money off them.

Ackerman frowned slightly.

He only knew that Manman had come here for a specific purpose, but he didn't know what it was.

But Ackerman could intuitively sense that the orc before him was no good. Although he couldn't detect anything particularly strange about him, there was something odd about the orc's eyes.

It feels like I've seen something similar somewhere before.

It seems he was in the arena of the underwater city...

Could this also be related to the Waltz family?

Ackerman's eyes flickered slightly.

Shang Yu has always been extremely sensitive to emotional fluctuations, and his first glance at the beastman in front of him was filled with dislike.

There's also a lot of emotion involved, but that doesn't seem quite right either.

Could it be that Manman's trip here wasn't just for fun?
Yes, he had felt something was off before he set off. Manman wasn't a playful person; she usually spent her free time studying various things and rarely came to places like farms.

The Yu family has planted quite a few vegetables in their backyard. If she likes them, she can just pick them at home. Why bother coming all this way here?

Shang Yu recalled that before he set off, Uncle Puslin specifically told him to protect Manman. Perhaps he knew something?
Is it because Manman doesn't want me to worry, or is there something she can't say directly, or is it some kind of secret?

Shang Yu composed himself and became more vigilant about his surroundings.

"I want to wander around by myself! You don't need to worry about me." Yu Manman looked around outside some greenhouses as if she was curious, and occasionally went in to take a look and pick a few vegetables.

The farm was very quiet, and there weren't many people around.

Yu Manman wandered around for a long time but didn't encounter many people.

Is it really possible to find a suitable heart donor here?

Yu Manman suddenly heard a hesitant voice...

Suddenly, she found her target! She turned her head to find the source of her inner thoughts!
It was truly worth spending tens of thousands of luck points in the system shop to exchange for a six-hour mind-reading card! It allows her to hear anyone's thoughts!
A middle-aged male orc looked slightly dazed, his fingers clutching his clothes, seemingly a little nervous.

“Strawberry farm…” he murmured, “My wife loves strawberries, but she’s not in good health, so I wanted to pick a basket of fresh strawberries for her myself.”

He looked at the orc who was leading the way and asked, "How are these strawberries grown?"

The waiter smiled and replied, "Sir, it takes about thirty days for our strawberries to grow from flowering to fruiting."

[Thirty days... that's ten million a day, that's three hundred million...]

[Three hundred million yuan is worth it to give my daughter a healthy heart!]

"But if the weather is cold here, the strawberries grow slowly. To get good strawberries, you have to wait patiently for sixty days. Strawberries grown in those days are much sweeter! Thirty-day strawberries aren't as sweet..."
