Chapter 404: Jade Python
Found it?
Qiao Sang was stunned.
Just by that description, he actually found it?
And so quickly?!
Qiao Sang sat up abruptly and quickly opened the messaging app, about to reply.
At that moment, the other party sent two more messages.
[Uncle Pei: Picture]
[Uncle Pei: Have Glacialia check if this is the place]
Qiao Sang opened the picture and took a look.
A wooden, standalone house, with the leaves of the trees in front of it half yellow and half green. Apart from the absence of the green familiar, everything else matched.
"Lulu", Qiao Sang turned and pointed the enlarged photo on her mobile phone screen toward Lulu, who was resting with her eyes closed by the floor-to-ceiling window. "Take a look. Is this the place you're looking for?"
Lulu opened her eyes.
Though the distance was a bit far, it didn't hinder her from seeing the photo clearly.
Lulu was momentarily stunned, then her eyes lit up. She got up and ran over in a few quick steps, staring intently at the photo on the mobile phone for three seconds. Her expression was serious and slightly excited as she nodded.
"Lu!"
This is it!
Qiao Sang was shocked. It really was here?!
He found it so quickly?
How did he find it?
Qiao Sang quickly replied to the message:
[Lulu says this is the place, Uncle Pei. How did you find it?]
Pei Shipan didn't type a response; he directly sent a voice call.
"Uncle Pei", Qiao Sang immediately answered.
"I have a friend whose familiar can also use Memory Scan, but unlike Lulu, her familiar can write down the address", Pei Shipan explained quickly, getting straight to the point. "Actually, I asked her for help on the day we returned, but I didn't know the exact location at that time, so I didn't mention it to you."
I see... Qiao Sang suddenly felt the urge to have her own familiars learn to read and write.
She glanced at Lulu, Fangy, and finally settled her gaze on Treasure Seeker.
Among her three familiars, the one most suited for reading and learning was definitely Treasure Seeker...
"Xunxun~"
Treasure Seeker was happily using Spatial Shift to play with ants, completely unaware of his Beastmaster's insane thoughts.
"Where is this?" Qiao Sang asked, snapping back to reality.
"It's on an island in Market City. Market City is about a five-hour flight from Seacity. You have a competition these next few days, so you won't have time to go. I'll take you there after your competition ends", Pei Shipan said.
"Alright", Qiao Sang agreed. Given the distance, she indeed didn't have the energy to go during her competition.
"By the way", Pei Shipan's tone suddenly turned serious. "If Glacialia is going there to see the Jade Python, I suggest you don't bring it along."
Qiao Sang was taken aback. "You mean the green familiar?"
Pei Shipan "hmm"ed.
Qiao Sang asked, puzzled, "Why?"
"It's not there", Pei Shipan said. "I checked, and six months ago, someone reported it for helping a wild beast companion sneak onto a plane. It's currently in the Pet Beast Reformation Center."
Six months ago, helping a wild beast companion sneak through... Qiao Sang glanced at Lulu, then realized something, her expression turning grave. "What about its Beastmaster?"
"Her Beastmaster worked at the airport and lost his job because of this incident", Pei Shipan said solemnly.
Qiao Sang was silent for a few seconds before asking, "Uncle Pei, is there any way to get the Jade Python out of the Pet Beast Reformation Center early?"
There was no response from the other end for a moment. A few seconds later, Pei Shipan sighed.
"If I'm not mistaken, the wild beast companion the Jade Python helped sneak through was Glacialia, right?"
That wasn't hard to guess.
Why would an endangered familiar from the Ancient Fog Region appear in the Yuhua Region?
Why would Glacialia want to go to this place?
Why would Qiao Sang want Jade Python to come out from the Pet Beast Reformation Center?
A little thought would reveal the answer.
Glacialia was the wild beast companion that had secretly boarded the plane, and it wanted to go to this place to see Jade Python, who had helped it.
Qiao Sang fell silent again, and a few seconds later, she spoke up.
“I didn’t ask Lulu, but the timing of its appearance in Yuhua Region does match.”
“Lulu…”
Lulu, hearing its name, moved its Ears closer to the mobile phone.
Qiao Sang leaned back, resting against the headboard of the bed.
Lulu: “…”
Pei Shipan said in a deep voice, “If the wild beast companion that sneaked onto the plane was just an ordinary one, it wouldn’t be a big deal. But if some people find out that the familiar Jade Python helped is Glacialia, this could become serious.”
“I can’t get involved in this. I’ll handle it.”
Some things can be serious or not, depending on how you look at them. As long as you find the right person, it’s just a matter of a few words for someone in a high position.
Qiao Sang said, “Thank you.” She knew she owed a significant favor now.
…
Dusk.
Market City.
Pet Beast Reformation Center.
“Fei Fei!”
“Su Su!”
“Talico!”
The three familiars were gathered, playing a game of Dou Dizhu.
Suddenly, one of the familiars, with a mostly green body and four limbs, excitedly threw down the remaining cards in its paw.
“Fei Fei!”
A straight! It won!
“Su Su…”
“Talico…”
The other two familiars immediately drooped, dejectedly scooping up a handful of Energy Pills from their plates and placing them in front of the green familiar.
“Fei Fei!”
The green familiar grinned, starting to shuffle the cards.
Let’s continue!
“Su Su!”
“Talico!”
The two losing familiars called out with determined expressions, ready to turn the tables.
At that moment, a guard in a blue uniform approached and said, “Jade Python, you can go out now.”
“Fei Fei.” Jade Python flicked its tail, not stopping its shuffling, and called out half-heartedly.
It would play one more round first.
The guard, seeing this, sighed. “Your Beastmaster is here to pick you up.”
“Fei Fei!”
Hearing this, Jade Python’s face lit up with excitement. The cards in its paw fell as it quickly headed toward the door.
After a few steps, it suddenly stopped and turned around.
“Su Su!”
“Talico!”
The two familiars immediately showed expressions of reluctance.
“Fei Fei!”
Jade Python happily called out to them, waving goodbye, then walked over, using its tail to sweep up the plate of Energy Pills, and left without looking back.
“Su Su…”
“Talico…”
…
That evening, Qiao Sang received a message from Jade Python.
The efficiency was amazing… Qiao Sang was pleasantly surprised, feeling a weight lifted from her mind.
She glanced at Lulu, who was sleeping with its eyes closed. It must have been having a good dream; its usually aloof face now bore a slight smile.
“Lulu…”
In the dream, Lulu stood under a tree, alert and on guard.
It was still in its Aquariana form.
“Fei Fei!” Jade Python pushed the plate of Energy Pills closer.
“Lulu…” Lulu looked conflicted, not wanting to eat but feeling very hungry.
“Gurgle…”
Lulu’s stomach growled.
Its face turned bright red.
“Fei Fei!”
Jade Python pushed the plate of Energy Pills closer again.
Lulu was too hungry and reached out a paw to take a bite, then quickly started devouring the pills.
After finishing, it saw Jade Python looking up at the sky.
“Lulu?”
Lulu looked puzzled.
“Fei Fei!”
Jade Python explained excitedly that its Beastmaster was working up in the sky.
“Lulu.”
Lulu resumed its guarded expression.
It had no good feelings toward humans.
“Fei Fei!”
Jade Python looked serious.
Not all humans are bad. One day, you’ll meet a human you’re willing to bond with.
