Chapter 188: Borrowing Good Luck

~8 min read 1,455 words

However, human joys and sorrows are not connected. Facing the girl with a worried face, the thought that popped into Qiao Sang's mind at this moment was: I don't know which clothing store the Illusion Water Baby works in. It's almost time to change seasons, I can buy a few autumn clothes to wear...

Although the Illusion Water Baby can't be called a rare pet beast, it's not common to see one working in a clothing store.

At least in her memory, she had never encountered one when going to a physical store to buy clothes.

Just as Qiao Sang wanted to ask, the girl suddenly asked: "Have you finished your summer homework?"

Qiao Sang shook her head: "I don't have any."

The girl was happy: "Then I can help you do it!"

Qiao Sang was stunned for two seconds, then said: "I am a fresh graduate, I don't have summer homework."

The girl: "..."

Calculated everything, but didn't calculate that the other party didn't have summer homework...

"Then do you have anything you don't want to do but must do? I can help you with anything." The girl didn't give up.

No reason to be courteous, either a traitor or a thief. Looks like she wasn't a social butterfly but had a clear purpose in coming to find her... Qiao Sang asked: "Why do you want to help me?"

"I want you to help me contact that classmate of yours." The girl twisted and said: "I haven't been able to contact him recently, and I can't wait for him at the school gate."

If Qiao Sang didn't know the ins and outs of the matter, just hearing this sentence would make her brain fill in a plot of a couple breaking up and the man going missing.

"He usually lives at school." Qiao Sang replied: "Last time it was because he had something to do for those few days that he was outside the school."

"No wonder..." The girl muttered.

Hearing the other party ask about Shi Gaofeng, Qiao Sang knew that the girl hadn't given up on changing the bad review, but she understood that this matter definitely wouldn't work.

Shi Gaofeng had a lot of resentment about cleaning the toilet these few days. She could feel the resentment on him from more than ten meters away.

"Can you help me talk to him? As long as you help me talk him into changing the bad review, for a semester, no matter when you don't want to go to school, I can let the Illusion Water Baby help you." The girl looked at Qiao Sang with eyes full of expectation.

Qiao Sang's expression didn't change at all.

Heh, is she that kind of person?

What is most important for a student?

It's learning!

She worked hard to get into the best high school in the city, what for?

It's to study hard!

Letting the Illusion Water Baby help her go to class, she didn't even think about it.

As soon as she thought about this, she felt... uh, it was actually quite cool.

In the end, Qiao Sang said expressionlessly: "Deal."

After adding contact information, the two became much more familiar.

Qiao Sang also learned that the other party was named Xu Jia, a senior at Hanggang No. 6 Beast Taming Middle School, who was recently trying

During the small talk, Qiao Sang took the three cups of milk tea she had just ordered from the server. The little treasure-hunting ghost couldn't wait to appear, floated over to the milk tea, and sniffed it with its nose.

This appearance caused everyone around Qiao Sang to vanish instantly.

"Xun~"

The little treasure-hunting ghost pointed at the milk tea with its short toe and looked up at its Beast Tamer curiously.

"It's delicious, have a taste," Qiao Sang said as she inserted a straw into one of the cups and handed it to the little treasure-hunting ghost.

"Xun..."

The little treasure-hunting ghost hesitated for a moment, then took it and had a taste.

"Xun!"

Watching the treasure-hunting ghost's look of enjoyment, Xu Jia finally had the courage to return to Qiao Sang's side.

"Awesome, students from Holy Water Middle School are just different. Like at our school, there isn't a single person who has contracted a Ghost-type pet," Xu Jia said with admiration.

"Ghost-type pets are actually quite good," Qiao Sang said, looking at the little treasure-hunting ghost whose eyes had curved into crescents from drinking the milk tea.

"So, did you come here today because of the Green Red Fruit?" Xu Jia suddenly asked.

Qiao Sang shook her head and said, "No, why would you ask that?"

The Green Red Fruit is deeply loved by Ghost-type pets that possess the Will-O'-Wisp skill, and it is quite valuable.

But this had absolutely nothing to do with the little treasure-hunting ghost.

After all, even if it practiced Will-O'-Wisp later, it would use the ring as a medium, relying on the energy absorbed inside to release it. If the energy absorbed inside the ring ran out, the Will-O'-Wisp would naturally disappear too.

Because it doesn't rely on its own energy to release Will-O'-Wisp, the Green Red Fruit has no appeal to the little treasure-hunting ghost at all.

"I thought you came here after seeing the news," Xu Jia explained. "Didn't we have a secret realm rift here a while ago, right at the musical fountain outside the mall? Several Ghost-type pets came out of it at that time."

"A passerby happened to be passing by, and I don't know if he was specifically brainwashing pets for a pyramid scheme, but he traded a grilled sausage for a Green Red Fruit from a Dreamless Doll that came out of it, and the next day he went to pick up his new car."

"After the news spread, this place became popular. Many people come here to check in when they have nothing to do, thinking that maybe they can get some good luck and, like that passerby, squat and find an easy-to-trick wild pet."

Qiao Sang was stunned for a long time upon hearing this. A Dreamless Doll? Could it be the one she encountered...

But thinking about it, it didn't seem impossible.

That Dreamless Doll really didn't look very smart; otherwise, it wouldn't have believed such nonsense as meeting a Lost Black Ram to make a wish after escaping a secret room...

But if that were really the case, Qiao Sang's heart would be unbalanced.

How could it be that others met a Dreamless Doll and earned enough money to buy a car, while she met a Dreamless Doll and almost ended up lying in a hospital?

To make herself feel better, Qiao Sang reached a conclusion.

These two Dreamless Dolls absolutely could not be the same one!

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

She hadn't looked carefully when she first arrived, but now she realized that seven out of ten stalls here were selling grilled sausages.

After struggling in her mind for two seconds, Qiao Sang went to the nearest grilled sausage stall and said, "Boss, give me four grilled sausages."

"Coming right up, that'll be 12 yuan." The boss packed the four sausages and handed them to Qiao Sang, saying enthusiastically, "You're here to check in too, right? Just walk ten meters forward and you'll be there. I was right here at the time, you can't miss it."

Qiao Sang was silent for a moment: "Thank you."

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

The little treasure-hunting ghost was on the side, holding the milk tea in its left claw and the grilled sausage in its right, taking a bite of sausage and a sip of milk tea, its face full of joy.

Looking at the five Force Ducks playing the violin in front of her and the people surrounding them to take photos, Qiao Sang suddenly felt a bit silly.

The secret realm rift was gone, so how could she encounter a wild pet with a screw loose? She must have been infected with silliness from spending too much time with Like Ya Bao...

Just as Qiao Sang turned to leave, her peripheral vision suddenly caught something, and she froze on the spot.

A massive head, short limbs, a purple diagonal-hook-shaped tail, and a purple crown on its forehead—could it be 100... a Crown-Cat?!

No...

Qiao Sang quickly calmed down. This Crown-Cat wasn't wearing a sun hat, sunglasses, or a bag.

Moreover, there was a person following it, and they looked quite close.

It should be its Beast Tamer.
