After school, he was then offered himself to a succubus.

With nothing to do on the afternoon of the first day of school, Zhang Chen spent his time at a matchmaking agency.

Earning a little over a hundred yuan is far less than the gold coins you get from defeating Shen Nianxi.

Zhang Chen had considered asking Tu Shan Han Su for gold coins, but Miss Fox said that she had used all her savings to research contraception and didn't have a penny on her.

That's fine, he won't have the money to raise the child anyway, so contraception is definitely important.

Meanwhile, they also found clues about the dog demon. The rats were very efficient and quickly located several rats at the scene.

Although rats are not very intelligent, they can still describe where a dog went or describe a car accident scene without any problems.

However, the dog demon's trail... all pointed to a doctor who worked at Nanjing University Affiliated Hospital.

Sure enough, since the cat demons in Ning'an were mostly under Bai Nuoyan's jurisdiction, it was reasonable for the dog demons to be under Li Yinuo's jurisdiction as well; he hadn't guessed wrong.

That dog demon was also at Nanjing University, and was even a top-notch surgeon.

The rabbit demon wasn't lying, and since the rabbit demon was related to him by blood, he had no choice but to intervene.

He had already figured out how to frame someone for this... Last time he framed Bai Nuoyan, this time he'll frame Li Yinuo.

The current problem is, where is Shen Nianxi stuck? Is she still stuck on the rabbit demon part? What is she investigating?

Is it a crime for Xu Jinyi to be hit by a dog and then killed by the dog demon? Is it a crime for the rabbit demon to refine the soul of the dead?

I asked Sanhua, but she didn't know either. Maybe only Shen Nianxi can determine it.

Besides, Tu Shan Han Su definitely knows something; that sly fox would come to help him willingly...

Zhang Chen checked his phone and realized that Tu Shan Han Su wouldn't be back that night, meaning he wouldn't get a free dinner.

"You guys stay here, I'm going out for dinner," Zhang Chen said, turning to the diligent cat and mouse.

Meow~

"squeak!"

"Woof~"

"?"

A strange barking sound came from the doorway. Zhang Chen and the cat and mice all looked towards the door. The little dog that had gone to Li Yinuo that morning had slipped back.

Wait... something seems different. Let me use a cheat to scan it.

[List of Yokai Included]

[Previous female demon character already included: Wolf Demon (Li Yinuo)]

Seeing the scan results almost made Zhang Chen break out in a cold sweat.

Damn it, why didn't you just be a good literature girl? Why did you turn into a dog and come looking for him?

Li Yinuo isn't going to imitate Bai Nuoyan, is he? He can't possibly bathe both the cat and the dog at the same time.

Cats like to play with cat toys, and dogs like to eat big bone sticks...that seems reasonable.

"Uh..." Zhang Chen pretended not to notice, "Didn't you leave with Li Yinuo? Why did you come back to find me?"

"Woof~" The puppy wagged its tail and came to him, tugging at his trouser leg. Zhang Chen understood what it was saying.

It means "I want a hug".

With patience, Zhang Chen picked up Li Yinuo.

I've been carried in a princess carry by beautiful girls twice in my life: once by a cat, and once by a dog.

I laughed in exasperation.

As soon as I picked her up, the wolf demon started slurping its tongue in an adorable way.

If it were a normal dog, Zhang Chen would happily interact with it.

But at this moment, Zhang Chen only felt... that the elegant and quiet beautiful girl from earlier in the day was hugging his neck and constantly bothering him.

"Hey... licking my face is fine, but don't lick my lips." Zhang Chen helplessly pushed the dog's head away.

"Waaah..."

Instantly, the puppy looked at him with teary eyes, its fluffy tail drooping down.

"..."

Zhang Chen was embarrassed. "Fine, you can lick it then."

The puppy's tail wagged again. She nestled between Zhang Chen's neck, no longer licking him, but simply nestled there and breathed.

Less scorching, more tender.

"I have to go eat now. Can I take you with me? It's that fast food place across the street. I've been eating there for over ten years."

Zhang Chen carried her to the fast food restaurant, thinking that she would be able to relax while eating.

But Li Yinuo didn't let go of him; instead, she crawled into his clothes and pawed at him like a kangaroo.

Zhang Chen breathed a sigh of relief, relieved that Bai Nuoyan hadn't crawled into his pants like that.

"I thought you were going to run off with Li Yinuo. Does she even know you're a monster?"

"Woof~"

"You know? I have a feeling she's a monster too?"

"Could everything she wrote in her book be her autobiography?"

"Woof~"

"She's so beautiful. Beautiful women are dangerous. She made me famous at Nanjing University in just one morning."

"We should try to avoid contact with her in the future." Zhang Chen ordered a plate of braised pork with scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and while eating, he subtly hinted to Li Yinuo.

But this trick didn't seem to work on Li Yinuo. She wasn't in a hurry at all and just comfortably squinted her eyes.

Unlike Bai Nuoyan, who would rush to crawl into her pants at the mere mention of sealing her heart and locking away love.

The "Gala Wood Strategy" no longer works.

Let's get straight to the point.

"There was a car accident a while ago that hit a dog demon. I think I saw it at Nanjing University today. Do you recognize it?"

Hearing this, Li Yinuo finally opened her comfortably squinted eyes.

"I feel something is strange because the girl who was in the car accident was my classmate, but she... wasn't human either."

"Forget it, you wouldn't understand even if I told you." Zhang Chen stopped there, picked up a piece of meat, and handed it to Li Yinuo.

Li Yinuo seemed to hesitate and didn't open her mouth to eat.

"Oh dear, Xiao Chen, you can't feed a dog like that!"

At that moment, the fast food restaurant owner said from the kitchen, "You have to get used to it when you're still a puppy; you have to throw your food on the floor to eat. How can you eat it while holding it in your arms?"

Zhang Chen smiled and said, "It's okay, I just prefer dogs."

"No matter how much you like it, you can't feed it like this! Why are you feeding a puppy like you're feeding your wife?" the boss said, shaking his head.

"Maybe?" Zhang Chen laughed. "If a dog becomes a spirit, it'll turn into your wife, right?"

"Sigh~ After the founding of the People's Republic of China, no one can become a spirit anymore! Besides, if you want to marry a monster, you have to marry a snake or a fox, hey! Isn't that how TV dramas always portray it!"

"Boss, things are more diverse now, not so feudal."

"Hey...you young people don't understand, dogs can't become spirits, and even if they did, they wouldn't be good-looking!"

"Ha ha..."

"..."

Li Yinuo listened quietly to their conversation, biting into the meat Zhang Chen offered, holding it in her mouth but not eating it.

Then, she suddenly darted out, ran out of the shop, and disappeared.

"Your dog ran away!" the boss shouted. "See? If you don't train the puppy properly, it won't recognize its owner and will run around everywhere."

Zhang Chen was slightly taken aback, but just smiled faintly and said nothing.

Soon after the meal, when it was time to pay the bill, the owner refused to take his money because his master had helped the owner.

Zhang Chen had no idea what his master had done, helping both monsters and humans.

But he didn't dislike this way of remembering his master; at least the world remembered him.

My life wasn't wasted.

"Let's go, boss."

"Alright, come again anytime!" The owner, clearing away the dishes, called out again as Zhang Chen left, "Remember to keep an eye on your dog! There are a lot of dog traffickers around lately, don't let it get lost!"

No sooner had he shouted than the boss leisurely finished packing up, and then turned around...

Then I saw a stunningly beautiful girl with long, straight black hair sitting at the dining table without anyone noticing.

The shop owner was startled and slumped into his chair. "My goodness! Miss, when did you get here?"

The girl remained silent, still holding the piece of braised pork in her mouth, her red lips and white teeth showing as she ate the meat in front of the boss.

She chewed slowly and savored the food.

A minute later, Li Yinuo wiped her mouth, stood up, and praised the boss:

"It's delicious, thank you boss."

The boss's eyes widened, and just as he was about to cry for help, the girl disappeared into the darkness.

He could only slump into the chair, patting his chest, his face full of disbelief.

"My god, Xiao Chen is even more ethereal than his master..."
