The True Young Master Saves the Soul Pet World by Eating Melons – CH80

Chapter 80: Evidence

City Lord Si and Si Yi both felt the whole matter was absurd. Since it was written as a storybook, even without proper context, the language should have been clearly different from that of a cultivation manual, right?

And Bai Lianrou had simply believed it?

Had she truly believed it—or had she found it interesting and decided to try it out?

Both City Lord Si and Si Yi thought the latter was more likely.

After all, if it succeeded, she would gain immensely. If it failed, she wouldn’t lose anything.

Bai Lianrou’s soul pets were originally suited to such sinister paths. Every time she harmed someone this way, she gained considerable bonuses. If she really managed to kill nine hundred and ninety-nine men, just how powerful would she become?

City Lord Si felt that Bai Lianrou absolutely had to die.

Unfortunately, she acted very covertly. It was difficult to obtain concrete evidence. Otherwise, he could have issued a City Lord’s Order and massacred Shuangqiao Town outright.

With Bai Lianrou leading things, Shuangqiao Town could absolutely be wiped out, right?

[It could. But it’s tricky. To massacre a town, you’d need strong, irrefutable evidence.]

That’s indeed difficult. Bai Lianrou is far too good at destroying evidence.

[Er’er! I found evidence!]

Guagua was munching on Soul-Boosting Hami Melon while suddenly growing excited.

Recently, Er’er had left all the Soul-Boosting Hami Melons for Guagua to eat so it could gather more information.

Guagua had been working hard, sensing related information to the best of its ability every time.

What evidence? Where? Is it enough to convict Bai Lianrou?

[It is. Over the years, quite a few innocent men have died miserably at her hands.]

[They originally had bright futures and decent character. It was only under Bai Lianrou’s schemes and influence that they gradually fell.]

[If it had just been ordinary scheming, that would be one thing. But her soul pets can affect people’s minds.]

[Those men were manipulated into becoming so-called scumbags, then were killed by Bai Lianrou one by one.]

[People who didn’t know the truth applauded her actions. But their families were left in unbearable grief.]

[Some families, sensing something was wrong, traced matters back to Bai Lianrou. They couldn’t find evidence that she killed their own loved ones, but they managed to record evidence of her harming others.]

[As long as those pieces of evidence could eventually bring her to justice, even if they couldn’t clear their own relatives’ names, at least they could avenge them.]

[But Bai Lianrou had the help of the Insect Clan. Every time, at critical moments, she discovered those gathering evidence and destroyed both the evidence and the people.]

[However, not every cover-up was perfectly timed. Some left parts of their collected evidence beneath the Twin Dragon Bridge in Lake City.]

[Others hid theirs inside the Ten Thousand Ice Caverns within the Ice-Hiding Array of Water City. And there’s also…]

Guagua rattled off seven or eight locations where evidence had been hidden.

Si Er silently repeated each place in his heart, determined to remember them and find a chance to leak the information later.

Although he seemed to have a mysterious “wish-fulfillment” buff lately, he didn’t dare rely on something so inexplicable. He preferred to depend on his own efforts.

But as he memorized the locations, City Lord Si and Si Yi were also secretly taking note. After dinner, City Lord Si immediately began to take action.

Si Yi, meanwhile, first escorted Si Er back to the academy.

Si Er was puzzled. “Big Brother, why are you sending me back first? I still wanted to watch the stars with you tonight.”

I’ve noticed the night sky here is especially beautiful. You can see so many stars clearly.

It’s not like the world I used to live in. When I was little, I could see the Milky Way and the Big Dipper. But as I grew up, I could only see a few faint specks of light. The brilliance was gone.

This world has baleful energy that’s even scarier than industrial pollution, but at least it doesn’t block the stars.

Si Yi patted his head with a smile. “So Er’er likes watching the stars. In a few days, when I’m free, I’ll watch them with you and Xu Xu.”

“I have something to take care of tonight, so I can’t stay with you.”

“Alright then. Goodbye, Big Brother.”

After saying farewell, Si Er turned and headed toward his dormitory.

Guagua, what do you think Big Brother is going to do?

[I don’t know. I can’t see everything.]

Si Er grew curious.

So what can’t you see?

[Anything Heaven doesn’t want me to see, I naturally can’t.]

[Fortunately, there aren’t that many heavenly secrets.]

[Don’t worry, Er’er. With me around, you’ll never run out of gossip!]

Alright.

Carrying Guagua, Si Er walked up to his small courtyard gate. Just as he was about to push it open, someone waved at him from the balcony of the neighboring building—it was Yu Beixuan.

Yu Beixuan hadn’t expected Si Er to return right after dinner and was delighted.

After waving, he called out to Yu Bei Tiger. The tiger understood immediately and teleported Yu Beixuan straight in front of Si Er.

Si Er jumped in surprise, not expecting Yu Beixuan to appear in the blink of an eye.

“This is…?”

Yu Beixuan smiled. “Yu Bei Tiger has a bit of space attribute. Short-distance teleportation isn’t a problem.”

Si Er considered it. “But this doesn’t feel that short. It’s at least five hundred meters.”

Yu Beixuan chuckled. “Five hundred meters isn’t far. Within a five-kilometer radius, Yu Bei Tiger can teleport freely.”

“That’s right! I’m just that amazing!”

Yu Bei Tiger proudly lifted its chin. But then, remembering Yu Beixuan’s feelings for Si Er, it quickly lowered its head again and leaped into Si Er’s arms, rubbing its fluffy little head against his cheek.

Si Er’s heart instantly melted.

Yu Bei Tiger is so cute.

Ahhh, so cute! Yu Bei Tiger is such an adorable little kitty—just as cute as Xuanxuan!

I hope the little tiger in my spirit beast egg will be just as cute when it hatches!

Yu Beixuan couldn’t help but wonder—surely he was just a tiny bit cuter than Yu Bei Tiger, right?

After all, he wasn’t picky about food. Yu Bei Tiger, on the other hand, was quite fussy.

With one hand petting the little black cat rubbing against his face and the other holding Guagua, the big white rabbit, Si Er felt so happy he could almost bubble over.

At times like this, if someone were to sit on a seesaw with me, I’d be the happiest person in the world!

Yu Beixuan’s eyes lit up. A seesaw might be a little childish—but playing with Er’er would definitely be fun.

After thinking for a moment, Yu Beixuan smiled. “Er’er, I saw lots of interesting things in your courtyard. Can I try them?”

“Of course!” Si Er’s eyes sparkled as he opened the gate and pulled Yu Beixuan inside.

“Xuanxuan, come on! I just finished setting these up not long ago. I haven’t tested their weight limits yet. Perfect timing for the two of us to try them together.”

Hehehe. Since Xuanxuan walked right into my trap, let’s play every single activity!
