Chapter 333

When Zhou Dahai reached the training camp's main gate and turned back, he found Liu Mengyun had already vanished.

He felt a pang of disappointment, yet also some joy, as he patted the head of Little Cangyun Eagle and strode into the training camp.

After Zhou Dahai entered the training camp, Liu Mengyun's figure reappeared, then vanished again in an instant.

Su Yang had stayed home for five days, only stepping out for walks along the wide, tidy streets of the villa district when dusk arrived and the weather grew slightly cooler.

During this time, he also visited a hair salon.

He cut his slightly long hair into a buzz cut, instantly looking much more spirited.

The hair salon's fees were a bit expensive, but not outrageously so.

Back at the Seventh Squad, he checked in with Zhu Xiaoshuang and greeted a few comrades he hadn't seen in a long time; just as he was about to return to his room, Chen Ke called out to him.

"Brother Su, they say a very beautiful female Beast Tamer joined our Seventh Squad, and they say her hair is white—do you know anything about it?"

Su Yang asked, puzzled: "You were just discussing this?"

"What else would we talk about?" Chen Ke laughed. "We're just curious!"

The entire Emergency Brigade is overwhelmingly male-dominated.

Female Gold-Rank Beast Tamers are rare, and even when they exist, most are like Zhu Xiaoshuang—tough, tomboyish types.

Those who are truly beautiful are truly few and far between.

"You're close to Captain Zhu—do you know any inside details?"

Liu Mengyun had just reported to the Seventh Squad when Su Yang took her to Mount Yandang.

It's only natural that the Seventh Squad members have never seen her.

Su Yang nodded: "I know."

"You've met her?"

The several Beast Tamers' eyes lit up, all turning to look at Su Yang.

"I've met her!"

Chen Ke pressed: "Who is she? What's her name? Is she really that beautiful?"

"Liu Mengyun—the one with the white hair!"

Chen Hao didn't hide anything.

Considering the time, even if she encountered danger on the way, Liu Mengyun should have returned by now.

Chen Ke exclaimed: "Liu Mengyun, the Ice Goddess? That prodigy Beast Tamer?"

Su Yang nodded: "It must be her!"

Chen Ke sighed: "Wow! How did she end up in our Seventh Squad? Isn't she always at the Treasures Pavilion?"

The incident where the Treasures Pavilion was bombed was known throughout Wucheng—the cause was the Treasures Pavilion's hunting team attempting to assassinate members of the Emergency Brigade.

But which specific hunting team of the Treasures Pavilion was responsible, and who exactly carried it out—both the High-ranking military officials of the Southwest Military and the Treasures Pavilion's leadership reached an unspoken agreement not to disclose it publicly.

Zhu Xiaoshuang had also told Su Yang not to reveal it.

Now that Liu Mengyun had become his deputy, he was even less likely to leak it.

Su Yang said casually: "Perhaps Liu Mengyun also believes that hunting ferocious beasts, protecting civilians, and defending the homeland are the true goals a Beast Tamer should pursue."

Chen Ke laughed: "Brother Su, that makes sense!"

After spending a day in the Emergency Brigade, as night fell, Su Yang was called over by Zhu Xiaoshuang.

In Zhu Xiaoshuang's office, Su Yang saw Shen Yan, the squad leader of the Tenth Squad.

Zhu Xiaoshuang got straight to the point: "There's a mission—you need to go to Changwu City. It's urgent!"

"What mission?"

"Shen Yan, you explain."

"One of our Tenth Squad's members lost his daughter this morning in the outer district. The City Guard's investigators haven't found any leads yet. The family came to us—we couldn't refuse."
