Chapter 32

Chapter 32

Shang Xi was unaware of what the werewolves were discussing about her. She returned to the shop with her son and took a sip of water before starting her work.

In a sudden moment, something flashed in her mind, and she had an epiphany. She murmured softly, "Man in White, Qin Ming, so it's him."

The people from the neighboring city's Criminal Police Brigade, she wasn't sure about their specific positions, but she occasionally watched videos where they discussed what criminals he had recently apprehended.

He seemed to be a formidable figure who kept a low profile.

The occasional side profile pictures of him capturing criminals were always taken at night.

This guy, he's not human!! Shang Xi was shocked. How did a werewolf end up becoming a human police officer?

The werewolves present at the scene heard her murmuring and Red Tail excitedly bounced over, asking her, "Shang Xi, were you talking about Manager Qin Ming? Did you see him today? I haven't seen him in a long time!"

"But, if he can be in Qingcheng, does it mean there are bad wolves coming down from the mountains again?"

Shang Xi was a bit confused. "What is a manager? And does 'bad wolves' mean bad people?"

"Yes, those fallen scum who only want to take without giving, who have done all sorts of bad things, they have completely degraded into foolish beasts. They will cause trouble in your world. The resources of your humans are too abundant."

"In fact, we have connections with the highest levels of your human society. The managers are chosen by the werewolf clan and the human upper echelons. Only the most outstanding and powerful werewolves are qualified to become managers. They specialize in capturing them."

After Red Tail finished speaking, she glanced at Shang Xi and said, "By the way, the head of the family is the manager of Qingcheng. When bad wolves appear in Qingcheng, the head of the family needs to deal with it."

Shang Xi opened the door to a new world once again and exclaimed in shock.

So, Qin Ming's identity as a police officer was just a cover, and the people he apprehended were not ordinary criminals...

Shang Xi remembered the news she had seen about the criminals Qin Ming had caught.

Robbers, chicken thieves, pig thieves.

"..." Oh well.

"Actually, petty theft is nothing. The real fallen ones are..." Red Tail stopped abruptly.

Shang Xi stared at her curiously, "Why did you stop?"

"I dare not say anymore, hehe." Red Tail stuck out her tongue and turned to pack a bouquet of flowers. "Don't ask me, I won't say. The head of the family would get angry if I scared you."

Shang Xi was really...

These werewolves were always like this, having a good conversation with her and then suddenly bringing up gossip. It seemed that in their eyes, she was like a precious treasure protected in the palm of their hands.

Shang Xi pursed her lips, shaking her head, feeling like these werewolves didn't understand anything.

Unlike Red Tail, Blue Tail behind her wasn't as clever and cute. At this moment, her face turned slightly pale, as if she had heard something terrifying.

Not long after, she expressed her desire to return to Nanfeng Courtyard.

...

Once she returned to the head of the family's house, she would be safe.

Meng Lai Mountain Manor.

Gu Wen had a calm expression, and his thin lips parted slightly. "There are five in Qingcheng, and among them, two have completely fallen."

"I understand," Qin Ming nodded solemnly.

"Gather here tonight, we have the whole night to capture them."

"Okay."

At this moment, the time pointed to two o'clock.

There was still some time before nightfall.

In a remote, gloomy, and damp old neighborhood, an elderly person was carrying fresh pork they had bought from the market when a tall "man" brushed past and snatched it away.

The elderly person was frightened and fell to the ground. Before they could even cry out, the "man" kicked off the wall with tremendous force, displaying an astonishing jumping ability, and leaped onto the outer wall, running away.

The elderly person was dumbfounded.

In another alley ten kilometers away from here, a fair-skinned woman was gradually being approached by two tall "men."

If Shang Xi could see the woman's face, they would gasp in disbelief because the woman was their good friend, Zhou Ziyou.

"What do you want? Stay away! I'll call the police!" Zhou Ziyou felt extremely unlucky today. She had been trying to lose weight recently and had become a bit thinner. She had put on a beautiful dress, done her makeup nicely, and went out for a stroll, only to encounter hooligans upon her return.

Damn it! She was a comic book author. Were these people here to provide material for her?

She tried her best not to show fear, but her voice couldn't help but tremble.

"It's broad daylight. Aren't you being too audacious? I advise you to calm down..."

The two men remained silent and continued to approach, their eyes fixed on her, as if she were a prey they could devour.

In an instant, Zhou Ziyou felt a chill down her spine and broke into a cold sweat. She couldn't help but think that they didn't seem human.

But this was the modern era, and people should believe in science, right?

The next second, one of them flashed a fierce look and pounced towards her.

"Ah!!" Zhou Ziyou's legs went weak, and she fell to the ground. Instinctively, she raised her arm to cover her eyes and curled up, trembling.

The anticipated harm didn't come.

She heard the sound of a beast's roar.

"Gray Tail! I advise you not to meddle in this."

Zhou Ziyou cautiously opened her eyes. In front of her stood someone, no, a cosplay enthusiast. The person wore gray-black ears on their head and had a gray-black tail behind them, looking quite realistic.

Was this person cosplaying as a werewolf?

Or... a husky?

She heard the man in front of her speak, and surprisingly, his voice carried a hint of youthfulness. Judging from his tall figure, he shouldn't be very old.

"The Qingcheng Administrator is my master, and I have every reason to apprehend you."

"It's not mine..." Zhou Ziyou was at a loss for words.

Today's events were way beyond her comprehension. Fortunately, she was a manga artist, and her mind was filled with wild ideas all day long. Was there anything she couldn't accept?

In the end, she was kicked out by the veterinarian.

Afraid of scaring people on the road, she asked the veterinarian for a piece of cloth to wrap the wolf in.

Luckily, her home was nearby. She bent down like she was carrying a strong man, her forehead almost touching her knees, huffing and puffing as she carried the big gray wolf into her house.

There was no other choice. Could he survive if she left him outside, covered in wounds?

Although everything felt like a dream, she knew one thing for sure: he saved her, and that's why he suffered such serious injuries.

Someone who would go and save a stranger shouldn't be a bad person, right?

With that in mind, she placed the wolf named Gray Tail in the guest room and tied him up.

This was the house she bought in Qingcheng, a two-bedroom apartment with a living room, kitchen, and bathroom. It was more than enough for one person.

When Gray Tail woke up, he was in pain all over his body.

At that time, he fought against those two scum and ended up at a disadvantage in the fight.

"Gray Tail, why don't you join us? Look, we're so free now. We can have whatever we want in the human world. Women, food, entertainment. Isn't that great?"

Gray Tail's eyes were fierce, "Get lost! You're a disgrace to the werewolf clan. The pack leader will come for you tonight."

Then, he wasn't very clear anymore. Those two scum had made up their minds to kill him. He felt them tearing and devouring his flesh, and he felt his blood draining away.

The pain made him numb, and he thought, how did he manage to escape when he was a child, being held by a pure human and locked in a stinky pigsty, deprived of food and constantly beaten?

This time, he had no strength left.

When he heard the sound of human police cars, he thought that he had protected a pure human for the pack leader.

Was he... somewhat useful?

He was almost twenty years old now, and being saved and accepted by such a powerful werewolf pack leader, he had no regrets.

Those two fallen werewolves said that the clan leader didn't care about him, but he didn't believe it.

The woman fell from the building, and it wasn't him who pushed her, but it was indeed his fault. However, the clan leader only said a few words, without laying a hand on him or getting angry at him.

Doesn't this already indicate a lot?

He only wanted that woman to leave. He wanted the clan leader to be happy without any burdens, and he didn't want her to get hurt.

But it seems like he meddled too much. Not only did he fail to make the clan leader happy, but he also made his burdens heavier.

Human police arrived, and the two scoundrels ran away. He closed his eyes and immediately transformed into a full wolf form,

He thought he was already dead.

When he opened his eyes, he reacted for a moment and then realized he couldn't move.

He was tied up!

Could it be that he was captured by pure humans again? He was shocked and desolate, unable to believe it.

He started struggling violently, regardless of whether he was injured or not.

If he wasn't injured, he could easily break free from this rope. He was no longer as useless as he was in his childhood.

In the next second, a woman hurriedly pushed the door open.

"Don't move, you're injured! You're bleeding again!"

Zhou Ziyou looked at the big gray dog on the bed and anxiously said, "Can you understand what I'm saying? You're the one who saved me... a person, right?"

"I tied you up because I was afraid you would harm me! Don't get agitated."

After she finished speaking, the other party indeed stopped moving.

The full wolf form couldn't speak, so Gray Tail could only emit a low growl.

He saw the woman trembling, as if she was the one who was tied up: "I'll untie you; you can't harm me."

Zhou Ziyou trembled as he untied the rope.

As soon as it was untied, Gray Tail pounced towards the door. He could hear the woman screaming in fear, but he didn't care. He went to the living room and then to the front door. He wanted to leave this unfamiliar woman's house.

But his body wouldn't allow it. When he reached the foyer, he collapsed and couldn't move.

He heard the woman slowly hiding behind the table.

"Heal your injuries at my place before you leave. I won't harm you, and you shouldn't harm me either."

"Thank you for saving me."

Gray Tail weakly lay in the foyer, his tail subconsciously wagging a bit. He could only open his eyes and look at a pair of silver high-heeled sandals on the shoe rack.

They belonged to the woman.

"..."

He didn't feel like looking at them, and he didn't want to. He simply closed his eyes and gave up struggling.

When Shang Xi finished work and sat in the car on the way home, he saw a message from his good friend on WeChat.

[Yoyo]: "Bro, I feel like this world is so magical."

That's all the message said.

Shang Xi, tired from the day, rolled his eyes and replied, "Speak in human language."

After a while, Zhou Ziyou replied, "I don't understand this world anymore. I can't figure it out, can't figure it out~"

Shang Xi: "..."

[I Want Shang Tian]: "Sis, should I pay for you to book an appointment with a psychologist?"
