"We absolutely cannot let that monster get away...cough cough."

Sakura Yabuki helped Genjiro to his feet, while Yasha picked up two alchemical knives that had fallen to the side. The next moment, the alchemical knife, which had been passed down for hundreds of years and was called the Spider Cutter, broke in two in front of him.

"Young Master..."

Yasha's voice immediately became stammering. Even if he were sold, he couldn't afford to pay for it, let alone the fact that he was already a member of the Snake Clan.

"Let's hand the sword over to the head of the Miyamoto family; it should still be able to be repaired."

Zhou Si's kick snapped the precious artifact in half, but this was something they had planned beforehand in the dream. Since it was a self-inflicted injury, they naturally had to pay a price.

If it were just a minor, superficial injury on Genjiro's body, it might raise some people's suspicions.

'I'm leaving Erii in your care.'

Yuan Zhisheng looked in the direction Zhou Si had left. Those photos were in the inside pocket of his shirt, which was the most important reason why he was willing to believe Zhou Si.

"Sakura, take me home first."

"Yes, my lord."

Sakura Yabuki nodded and helped Genjiro walk slowly toward the car.

The yaksha and crow behind them exchanged a glance and quickly followed.

————————————————————————————

"Moshi moshi, your takeout has arrived."

There was a sudden knock on the suite door, and a male voice came from outside. Su Enxi walked into the living room, feeling a little strange.

"I didn't order any takeout either. How is the hotel's security handled?"

"Looks like we should put some pressure on their boss."

As an extremely wealthy woman who is close to the world and the housekeeper of a group of nannies, she does not have the same powerful strength as Mai Shutoku and Zero, but the funds and resources she controls can only be described as terrifying.

If she wanted to, this homebody-like girl could easily become the world's richest person.

Arriving at the suite door, Su Enxi turned on the monitor next to the door, wanting to see who the guy at the door was.

Then she saw Zhou Si waving at her from the doorway, carrying two bags of fruit.

"..."

Although her expression remained unchanged, Su Enxi's heart was in turmoil.

'No, why is this giant monster showing up here? Is it here to cause trouble?'

'Quick, quick, find Long Legs! Wait, she went out today!'

Finally realizing something was wrong, Su Enxi understood why Jiu De Mai had acted out of character this morning, even though she seemed too tired to get out of bed yesterday.

So I knew this was going to happen.

An enraged Su Enxi sent her dozens of angry emojis in a row to condemn her unjust actions.

Meanwhile, Mai Shude, who was sunbathing on a private beach, looked at her phone, which was constantly popping up with messages, and muttered to herself.

"Potato Chip Girl, you sold me out last time, now it's your turn."

He then expertly blacklisted Su Enxi's account and closed his eyes to continue enjoying his rare vacation.

Meanwhile, Su Enxi, looking at the glaring red exclamation mark on her phone, was so angry she felt like she was going to grind her teeth to dust.

"Miss Su Enxi, don't keep me waiting too long~"

Having just been betrayed by a friend, and then hearing a death knell outside the door, Su Enxi gritted her teeth and spat towards Jiu De Mai's room.

Even if I die, I'll haunt you as a ghost! Just you wait!

"Isn't this the esteemed Mr. Zhou Si? What brings you here?"

Su Enxi forced a welcoming smile and spoke in a sickeningly sweet voice that even she found nauseating.

"Can't you speak properly? It's disgusting."

Su Enxi's actions reminded Zhou Si of some terrifying memories she had had, and she quickly stopped her.

Didn't your boss tell you why I came here?

Zhou Si casually found a chair and sat down, looking around the room with some curiosity.

As expected of a world-class hotel, even though it's the same presidential suite, it's so much better than the Regent Hotel in Fuzhou. The air of wealth is evident from the moment you walk in.

The cheapest things in the whole house were probably the bags of potato chips next to Su Enxi's computer.

"Su Enxi, please sit down."

Zhou Si looked at Su Enxi, who was sitting next to her like a quail, and couldn't help but laugh. She was clearly a financial queen who could dominate the capital battlefield, but she didn't expect her real personality to be so... cute.

Zhou Si tried her best to find a word that wouldn't hurt her self-esteem.

"Don't be nervous, I don't eat people."

Although Zhou Si tried his best to calm her down, it was obvious that Su Enxi became even more frightened after he said those words.

Okay, let's get down to business.

"Your boss has probably asked you to pay attention to the recent signs of dinosaur resurgence worldwide, right?"

Su Enxi nodded. That was true. Although they had paid attention before, they hadn't focused on such a wide range of things. They had only focused on a few key locations.

She spent a lot of real money on this, apparently because it was a requirement of a super monster?

Have any monsters similar to this been discovered recently?

Zhou Si placed photos of several common monsters in front of Su Enxi. These monsters basically covered the common types of monsters, and it was easy to find similar monsters from their physical characteristics.

"Um..."

Looking at the monsters in the photos, Su Enxi quickly noticed that one of them looked very familiar. She immediately moved the mouse, opened a folder, and pointed to the monster in the picture, asking, "Is this it?"

The video showed a female Rathalos attacking everything around her in a frenzy, and her ferocious appearance made Zhou Si a little uneasy.

"Is this female Rathalos going through menopause? Why is she so irritable?"

The hybrid creatures in the video were being driven back by the female Rathalos until they finally managed to turn the tide by using the heavy alchemical cannon.

But a sense of unease lingered in Zhou Si's mind; the female Rathalos's posture was definitely not normal.

At least the female fire dragons that Zhou Si had seen never had red eyes under normal circumstances.

Is there a clearer version of this video?

Su Enxi shook her head again. It had already taken a lot of effort to get this video, especially since it was taken at the Secret Party's military base.

"Is there any clue as to the location of this female Rathalos?"

"The people who hunted this monster were from the Kassel College Executive Department. If nothing unexpected happens, the monster's corpse should be in the Kassel College's ice cellar right now."

Su Enxi shrugged. Even though their team of nurses was quite capable, they obviously couldn't reach into such an important place.

Zhou Si stared at the female Rathalos in the picture for a long time, but still had no idea. It was better to leave such professional matters to the professionals.

"Give me a copy of this video." Zhou Si handed her phone to Su Enxi. "And this is for you."

A book as thick as half of Su Enxi's head was placed on the table. It was the guild's latest textbook, which compiled almost all the monsters that had been sighted in the guild, along with their basic information.

This book, bound by Melo, is now considered an essential textbook for novice hunters.

"If any monsters appear on this, please notify me immediately."

Zhou Sichao and Su Enxi gave each other a kind smile.

"Please, Miss Su Enxi."

"...I guarantee the mission will be completed."

In the eyes of the potato chip girl, Zhou Si's handsome face gradually transformed into the image of a devil, but Su Enxi ultimately revealed a smile that was more like a grimace, and agreed to Zhou Si's request in a dry voice.

Watching Zhou Si leave the room, Su Enxi collapsed into a chair as if all her strength had been drained.

If their boss often calls himself the devil, then Zhou Si is an absolute demon!

Looking at the book that she herself might not be able to lift with one hand, Su Enxi's gaze gradually died.

--------------------------

"I am back."

"Welcome back!"

It was clearly not Kotori who was giving Zhou Si such a warm welcome. Erii held up her little notebook and looked at Zhou Si with some anticipation.

"This is what you want."

After taking the bag from Zhou Si, Erii looked at the bag full of game cartridges, and her satisfied expression made Zhou Si pat her head.

"Thank you, Mr. Hunter."

"You're welcome," Zhou Si replied with a smile, then handed her another bag.

"This is a gift from your brother."

Inside were some figurines and snacks that Erii liked. It was Genji who told Zhou Si to buy them. Anime and snacks were among Erii's few hobbies besides games.

Besides that, there was a letter that Genjiro wrote to her, filled with his worries and instructions for Erii.

Tell her to take care of her health and listen to Zhou Si.

Genjiro wasn't good at expressing his emotions, and the entire letter was filled with simple words, but even so, Erii's eyes were already slightly red.

She didn't have many fond memories of Japan, but the deepest part of them was, of course, her brother who loved her like a younger sister.

"Is my brother alright?"

Seeing Erii's tearful face, Zhou Si didn't know how to tell her that he had beaten her brother into the hospital again. In the end, he could only avoid Erii's pitiful eyes and reply somewhat insecurely.

"It's...it's pretty good, I'm healthy and have a good appetite."

Seeing Erii's unwavering belief, Zhou Si felt his conscience being tormented once again.

Why is it different with Erii when she's different from the others, who were never like this before?

A passing bird gave Zhou Si a mocking look, as if to say, "You've finally met your match."

"Little bird, this is your gift."

Zhou Si handed her the feather care kit he had brought for the little bird, along with several books, from the Hunter's Book. He had heard from the Extreme Realm that the Liberians placed great importance on the care of their ear feathers, and since the little bird usually liked to read, he brought these for her.

It must be said that Zhou Si's fluctuating emotional intelligence is indeed puzzling.

"Thank you."

Elena accepted the gift, and the slight dissatisfaction she had felt earlier vanished.

With a leap, Zhou Si landed on the soft sofa, rolled over to face the ceiling, and looked at the little bird sitting opposite her.

"How has Lu Mingfei been these past few days?"

Zhou Si entrusted the task of observing Lu Mingfei to Xiao Niao during her two-day trip to Japan, but judging from Elinie's expression, our little Lu seems to have had a rather difficult time these past two days.

“He’s almost gone insane these past two days. He’s completely lost his mind, both at school and at home.” Elena’s expression was a little unnatural. After pausing for two seconds, she added, “He’s even stopped going to internet cafes.”

That's definitely quite serious.

“Once, when I passed by him, I heard him muttering Dr. Youssefka’s name over and over again.” Eleanor couldn’t help but ask, “What exactly did he experience in his dream? How could you be so cruel?”

"Wait, let me go ask."

Because she had her own things to do, Zhou Si didn't keep an eye on Ya Nan's dream all the time. Anyway, Lu Mingfei wouldn't die in there. The little devil from the mental health department said he would keep an eye on it, so Zhou Si naturally went to do her own thing.

But now it seems that things have gone a little wrong?

"I will go with you."

Elene was so curious about what was going on inside that she raised her hand, and Erii, who was standing next to her, also wanted to join in the fun, but Zhou Si and Kotori both refused.

Both of them had been to Yharnam's Dream before and knew very well how depressing the environment was, so they didn't want Erii to come into contact with such things.

"Little Bird and I are off to take care of serious business. How about we play games with you all day tomorrow?"

As Zhou Si spoke, she nudged the little bird beside her, and Elena nodded in agreement.

“You’re like heartless parents who are deceiving children.”

Erii held up the little notebook in her hand. She wasn't a child; how could she not see that these two were fooling her?
