Beast taming, starting from zero point-Chapter 199 - 189 Good Luck by Association

Chapter 199: Chapter 189: Good Luck by Association Chapter 199 -189: Good Luck by Association However, human joys and sorrows do not always resonate with each other, and as Qiao Sang faced the girl with a sorrowful expression, the thought that came to her mind was, “I wonder which clothing store the Illusion Water baby is working at, it’s almost the change of seasons, and I could buy a few pieces of autumn clothing to wear…”

The Illusion Water baby might not be a rare pet beast, but it’s not common to see one working in a clothing store.

At least, she had never encountered one when shopping in a physical store.

Just as Qiao Sang was about to ask, the girl suddenly spoke up, “Have you finished your summer homework yet?”

Qiao Sang shook her head, “I haven’t.”

The girl’s face lit up with joy, “Then I can do it for you!”

Qiao Sang was taken aback for two seconds before responding, “I’m a recent graduate; I don’t have any summer homework.”

The girl: “…”

She had calculated every possibility but had never considered that the other person might not have any summer homework…

“Is there anything you don’t want to do but have to? I can help you with it,” the girl didn’t give up.

Unwarranted help is either mischief in the making or an ulterior motive, it looks like she’s not a social butterfly but someone with a clear purpose looking for her… Qiao Sang asked, “Why do you want to help me?”

“I’d like you to get in touch with your classmate for me,” the girl said hesitantly, “I’ve been unable to contact him recently, and waiting at the school gate hasn’t worked either.”

If Qiao Sang didn’t know the full story, she might imagine a messy breakup between lovers with the guy going AWOL based on that single statement.

“He usually lives at school,” Qiao Sang replied, “It was only because he had something to do these past few days that he stayed off campus.”

“No wonder…” murmured the girl.

Just by hearing the girl ask about Shi Gaofeng, Qiao Sang knew that she hadn’t given up on fixing the bad review, but Qiao Sang understood that it was unlikely to happen.

Shi Gaofeng had been full of resentment about cleaning the toilets these past few days; she could feel his aura of grievance even from dozens of meters away.

“Could you talk to him for me? If you can persuade him to change the bad review, for a whole semester, anytime you don’t want to go to school, I can have the Illusion Water baby take your place,” the girl said, looking at Qiao Sang with hopeful eyes.

Qiao Sang’s expression didn’t change one bit.

Ha, does she look like that kind of person?

What’s the most important thing for a student?

It’s studying!

She struggled hard to get into the best high school in the city; what for?

It was so she could study hard!

The idea of having the Illusion Water baby attend class for her had never even crossed her mind.

But just the thought of it made her feel… er, pretty awesome.

Eventually, Qiao Sang said expressionlessly, “Deal.”

…

After adding contact information, the two grew much more familiar with each other.

Qiao Sang also learned that the girl’s name was Xu Jia, a senior student at Hangkang’s Sixth Beast Taming High School, who was recently working hard to save money for the Illusion Water baby’s evolutionary materials.

While chatting idly, Qiao Sang picked up three cups of freshly made milk teas from the server, and the eager Treasure-seeking Ghost immediately materialized, floating over to sniff the milk tea.

This appearance led to Qiao Sang’s surroundings instantly clearing of people.

“Xun~”

The Treasure-seeking Ghost pointed its short toes at the milk tea and looked up curiously at its Beast Tamer.

“It’s delicious, try it,” Qiao Sang said as she inserted a straw into one of the cups and held it up to the Treasure-seeking Ghost.

“Xun…”

The Treasure-seeking Ghost hesitated for a moment before taking a sip.

“Search!”

Watching the treasure-seeking ghost revel in pleasure, Xu Jia finally gathered the courage to return to Qiao Sang’s side.

“Awesome, the students from Shengshui Middle School really are different. No one at our school has contracted with a spectral-type pet beast,” Xu Jia said admiringly.

“Spectral-type pet beasts are actually quite good,” Qiao Sang said, looking at Xiao Xunbao who was curving its eyes into crescent moons because of the milk tea.

“So did you come here today because of the green and red fruits?” Xu Jia suddenly asked.

Qiao Sang shook her head, “No, why would you think that?”

The green and red fruits, highly valued by spectral-type pet beasts with ghost flame skills, were far from cheap.

But this had nothing to do with Xiao Xunbao.

After all, even if it developed ghost flames later, it would use the ring as a medium, releasing energy absorbed from within. If the energy absorbed by the ring was depleted, naturally the ghost flames would disappear as well.

Since it didn’t rely on its own energy to release ghost flames, the green and red fruits didn’t attract Xiao Xunbao at all.

“I thought you came after seeing the news,” Xu Jia explained. “There was a crack to a secret realm here recently, right outside the mall near the musical fountain. Several spectral-type pet beasts emerged from it.”

“A passerby happened to go by, and I don’t know if he specialized in brainwashing pets for pyramid schemes or something, but he traded a sausage for a green and red fruit with a Dreamless Doll that came out and the next day, he went to pick up a new car.”

“Once the news spread, this place became popular. Many people come here to check in, hoping to get lucky and stumble upon a naive wild pet beast, just like that passerby did.”

On hearing this, Qiao Sang was stunned for a while. The Dreamless Doll? It couldn’t be the same one she encountered, could it…?

But then again, it wasn’t impossible.

The Dreamless Doll she saw really didn’t seem that smart; otherwise, it wouldn’t have believed such a ridiculous story about passing through a secret room to meet a Black Ram and make a wish…

If it really was the same, though, Qiao Sang felt unbalanced inside.

So others meet a Dreamless Doll and earn enough for a car, and she meets one and almost ends up in the hospital?

To make herself feel better, Qiao Sang arrived at a conclusion.

These two Dreamless Dolls absolutely couldn’t be the same one!

…

After saying goodbye to Xu Jia, Qiao Sang left the mall and went to the area near the musical fountain in the plaza.

She hadn’t paid much attention when she first arrived, but now she noticed that seven out of ten stalls here were selling sausages.

After wrestling with the thought for two seconds, Qiao Sang went to the sausage stall closest to her and said, “Boss, give me four sausages.”

“You got it, 12 yuan total,” the boss bagged up the four sausages and handed them to Qiao Sang with enthusiasm, “You’re here to check in too, right? Walk forward about ten meters, and you’re there. I was here myself, can’t miss it.”

Qiao Sang was silent for a moment, “Thank you.”

Carrying three sausages and two cups of milk tea, Qiao Sang arrived at the spot the boss mentioned.

Xiao Xunbao was beside her, holding a milk tea in its left claw and a sausage in its right, alternating bites of sausage with sips of milk tea, a face of pleasure.

Looking at the five Violinduck pulling at their violins and the crowd surrounding them to watch and take photos, Qiao Sang suddenly felt a bit foolish.

The crack to the secret realm was no longer there, how could she chance upon a wild pet beast with a few screws loose? She really had been infected with silliness from spending too much time with Yaobao…

Just as Qiao Sang turned to leave, Yu Guang’s gaze suddenly caught something, and she froze on the spot.

A massive head, stubby limbs, a diagonal hook-like purple tail, and a purple crown on the forehead, wasn’t that the 100… Crown Cat?!

No, wait…

Qiao Sang quickly calmed down. This Crown Cat wasn’t wearing a sun hat, sunglasses, and a bag.

And, there was someone beside it, seeming quite close.

That must be its Beast Tamer.
