Chapter 96

Jumping through hoops?

Ling Yue glanced toward the center of the venue, the animal trainer directly lit eight large hoops; with a whoosh, the roaring flames instantly snatched everyone's sight, and before it stood a graceful lioness.

The animal trainer first delivered a monologue, briefly introducing the lioness's identity: '……This is our circus's circus queen, the lioness Lily!'

He tapped the wooden stick: 'Lily, jump!'

The blazing hoop, its flickering firelight shining on the front-row audience, not to mention the crowd below—even Ling Yue seeing it couldn't help but feel nervous, let alone, for most animals, they innately fear fire.

This is also why, in the wild, lighting a bonfire is fundamentally done.

Ling Yue's gaze fell on the lioness Lily, this lion queen's eyes reflected the flames, and without warning she sprang up!

'Ah!' an uproar filled the venue, a chorus of screams!

Only see it leapt through one hoop after another; as the number increased, the hoops grew higher, finally reaching a person's height, such height and blazing fire seemed as if an invisible giant hand clenched tightly around everyone's heart.

The animal trainer tapped the wooden stick below; Lily, having just cleared seven hoops consecutively, caught her breath and looked toward the man behind her.

He issued another command: 'Lily, jump one for everyone—you are the fiercest lioness queen.'

His tone was coaxing, yet the thin stick in his hand kept striking the ground, a tight, rhythmic 'du-du' sound that agitated people's minds, as if hinting at something.

Ling Yue instinctively furrowed her brows.

'Too high, too high!' Sangsang's terrified voice came through the earpiece; Ling Yue startled, the girl strained her voice: 'Such a huge hoop, it will surely be afraid!'

'Sister, can you get them to stop?'

Just then, the animal trainer suddenly swung the stick as if to strike; the lioness Lily tensed her body, took a few steps' run‑up, leapt fiercely, her elegant slender form cleared the hoop, and her cute, sturdy paws landed firmly.

Its beautiful, perfect move left the whole venue in dead silence.

After a moment, thunderous applause erupted, and everyone cheered!

The excited crowd was as if injected with chicken blood, and according to the animal trainer, this was merely an appetizer, instantly stirring the public's interest.

Except for Ling Yue, she noticed the lion's paws slightly splayed outward; as she walked back to her seat, her steps were no longer as light as before.

Sangsang kept watching it, unable to hold back: 'Sister, is Lily injured?'

Ling Yue didn't know how to answer, for she suddenly realized she could hardly bear to watch, even though to others the circus was splendidly superb.

Sangsang suddenly spoke, her tone doubtful: 'Sister, why is that person holding a stick?' She paused, then said: 'I know—could it be to guide the lion?'

The announcer on stage continued: 'Next up, the little monkey act!'

The monkey Manman unconsciously turned its head, looking at the lioness's covered paw, while Bear Xi nearby sniffed foolishly: 'Eh? What's going on? I seem to smell something burnt.'

'Smells great!'

The next moment, a goat kicked its big, fat rear with a hoof: 'My goodness, you oaf, if you can't speak then don't—do you even know what you just said?'

Bear Xi looked at it displeased; no matter how he said it, he was still the brown bear king, and if it weren't for those poachers, he surely wouldn't have fallen to this state!

How could a goat kick itself?!

Bear Xi: 'Then why did you kick me?'

The goat glanced at the lioness Lily nearby: 'Come over, I'll tell you quietly.'

After hearing that, Bear Xi suddenly slapped his own head, murmuring self‑reproachfully: 'I don't know either……' The scorched thing was the lioness Lily's paws.

It hissed coldly, thinking that if its claws were roasted by fire, they'd become baked bear paws, and Bear Xi instantly felt the same pain.

Moreover, these circus villains—back in rehearsal it wasn't this hard; he saw Lily about to jump eight hoops and was already startled, normally it's five, at most seven, the eighth truly required desperate effort, so the usually brave Lily hesitated just now.

Ling Yue sensed the movement here, using her keen eyesight she looked toward the lioness Lily lying on the ground; the latter seemed to feel it, their gazes pierced through layers of obstruction and finally intertwined.

In an instant, Ling Yue seemed to see an unyielding, mighty soul.

Even in dire straits, it still had not given up.

At this moment, the monkey Manman entered the stage.

It wore a colorful little vest, pushed a small cart, and its big, clear eyes looked outside the cage.

'Du-du——'

The stick's tapping made it shudder violently, then it reacted, hopped onto the cart, began pedaling the wheels; the adorable cart was full of flowers, and the little monkey earnestly pedaled—compared to the lioness Lily's earlier thrilling act, this cute little monkey endeared itself more to children.

'Wow, it's so adorable, and it can even ride a cart!'

Ling Yue heard Sangsang's voice; at that moment, the monkey moved the hand gripping the handlebar, it circled the venue but hesitated to start the next move.

The animal trainer was very dissatisfied; compared to fierce beasts, the weakly harmful monkey was, in his eyes, merely a toy to be kneaded at will.

'Manman, let go.'

Manman the monkey kept pedaling with one foot then the other, circling the cage, when from behind came the man's exasperated shout: 'Manman, disobedient?'

Accompanied by the deadly 'du-du' sound, Manman's motion stalled; the little vest on its body was suddenly grabbed, it alertly stood up, yet could not escape being lifted, and the next moment its butt was struck hard with a stick!

'Jee-wah!' Manman cried out in pain, its voice changing; after the animal trainer gave it a blow, he swiftly withdrew, his sinister gaze fixed on the little monkey: 'Let go.'

Sometime later, in the circus audience seats, someone fell silent while another part laughed loudly: 'Hahaha, the monkey's cry is so awful, all it does is ride a cart? Pointless.'

The next moment, the monkey riding the cart suddenly released both hands, lacking a fixed handlebar, it moved forward by inertia, and the noisy, unpleasant‑looking audience fell silent.

After Manman the monkey dismounted, its whole body was soaked in cold sweat, yet there was no time for it to rest—the monkey act was far from just this.

The goat and monkey entered the stage together; the venue had been completely renewed, set with tall frames and fine wire ropes, and Ling Yue heard the animal trainer's voice: 'Everyone, don't lose focus—the upcoming act is more splendid than the last; this is the final, and most splendid, part of the monkey act—the aerial handstand!'

Aerial handstand? What's an aerial handstand?

They had only heard of flying trapeze.

Ling Yue heard the audience behind her discussing; a friend explained to him: 'This is the circus's signature act, similar to the flying trapeze—no, no, it's even more impressive than the flying trapeze!'

'Just watch—it will definitely not disappoint your ticket price!'

'Then I'll have a look—what exactly is an aerial handstand?'

Although Ling Yue used an earpiece, she also had the video on, capable of real‑time audio and video transmission; at the moment the monkey was struck earlier, she had already heard the little girl's gasp.

'Sister, what I saw isn't like that.'

Sangsang actually never went to a circus; after that scoundrel father took her home, he and his stepmother and stepsister's children did go to see one.

At that time, the other party still showed off to her: "It looks so great, too bad you can't go, hahaha but it's fine, I think someone as stupid as you probably can't even understand it, hehe~"

"Are you angry? Big dummy, big dummy! You're not my sister at all—if you've got the guts, hit me!"

Later, she secretly watched the circus troupe's performances on TV and on her phone; those animals were more impressive than the next, capable of all sorts of tricks, especially the little monkey wearing a clown hat, which seemed far more carefree than she was.

Over time, watching a circus performance almost became her obsession.

Until today, Sang Sang saw such a live broadcast for the first time—the little monkey she liked best had just been viciously struck with a stick, oh how painful!

When her stepmother spanked her, it was only with a hand—such a hard stick must hurt terribly!

The little girl bit her lip on the hospital bed: "Sister, I don't want to watch the circus performance anymore; they must be suffering, I don't want to watch."

Ling Yue fell silent for a moment, then said: "Sang Sang..."

"Ah! Sister, what are they doing?" Sang Sang suddenly spoke, cutting her off; the little girl stared in shock at the phone screen.

"The goat is climbing the stairs, so high, so high—sister, I'm scared!"

Sang Sang watched in horror as the goat stepped up the stairs, the monkey Man Man clinging tightly to its fur on its back; it lowered its head, the cold sweat that had just appeared surfaced again—it was already a full eight meters high!

Thinking of its duty, the monkey Man Man suddenly lifted its head, a huge light bulb glowing like a small sun; as long as it straightened its body, it could reach it.

No!

It shook its head, and the goat beneath it froze in fright: "Whoa, Man Man, big brother, stop shaking like that—I can't keep my balance!"

At that moment, they stood on the top tier of the stairs, facing each other far apart, connected only by a firmly fixed silver steel wire between the two sides of the frame; this perilous scene—aside from operating it, just seeing it made the audience jump in fright!

"Holy shit, what are they doing? This isn't what I imagined, is it?"

"Good heavens, do they really have to go this far? Is there any protection? They're just going at it with real knives and guns!"

"No way—do you think this is a circus act? This is exactly why this troupe is so wildly popular; they really dare! Compared to domestic troupes of the same type, there's simply no comparison!"

"Awesome!"

After the initial shock, they were filled with anticipation, completely unaware that such spectacular excellence was born from a brutally extreme violent output lesson.

Before this, it wasn't the goat and Man Man pair but another famous duo of a little lamb and a monkey; later, during a performance, they had an accident—on the eight-meter-high platform, one foot slipped, and blood spilled on the spot.

The front-row spectators hadn't even reacted, staring blankly as the animals, unable to utter a scream, collapsed straight into bloody pulp, drenched in the hot blood spraying from their bodies.

All the animals backstage saw it clearly; the audience that had been laughing hysterically was instantly stunned, and moments later, heart-rending screams echoed through the clouds.

Afterwards, the circus boss paid a huge sum as hush money, but he could never cancel this profitable act; he only regretted spending the hush money, and later cursed resentfully: "Why didn't they die earlier or later? Of all times, they had to die on stage—what bad luck!"

Later, they selected the goat and Man Man as replacements.

Even though they had trained to perfect rapport, the goat didn't dare play with its own life; it nervously scraped its hooves, stiff as a mechanical sheep.

In the midst of hesitation, the animal trainer's voice came from below: "Please wait a moment, the wonderful show is about to begin!"

Even though the audience hadn't urged him on, he already looked up at the small animals on the high platform, tapped the wooden ladder that had been erected, felt the vibration underfoot, and the goat's movement paused.

"He, he's starting to urge us on—we have to begin."

The monkey Man Man grabbed the fur on its back, suddenly rose to its feet, and amid a chorus of gasps, the goat's four hooves stepped onto the swaying, flexible steel wire; each step made people break out in a cold sweat from the thrill.

"Holy crap, it actually stood firm!"

"My goodness, this goat is amazing!"

The goat walked above, the audience shouted below, the thin steel wire swayed, pulled to its limit by the weight, bending into a huge arc, as if it might snap at any moment!

Tightrope walking.

Most of the time it's just a figure of speech meaning "extremely dangerous," but now it's being performed for real!

Ling Yue in the audience almost couldn't help but stand up; she gripped the armrest tightly, and through her headphones came the little girl's anguished scream, then a soft, tearful voice: "Sister, it's so scary, I dare not look—wuwuwu, sister, can you save them? The circus is so terrible… wuwuwu it's so scary…"

Ling Yue instantly furrowed her brow, eyes fixed on the performing animals on the wire: "Sang Sang, don't worry, sister will definitely help them; Sang Sang, don't cry, your eyes will swell, and your grandparents will worry too."

The little girl sobbed weakly, whispering repeatedly: "I'm not watching, sister, I'm not watching!"

"Sorry, sister, I—I…"

As someone equally tense to the point of holding her breath, Ling Yue also spoke to soothe the child: "All right, I'll cut off the video now, little friend Sang Sang, go to sleep early, don't think about it anymore."

Ling Yue paused: "Tomorrow, tomorrow everything will get better."

She furrowed her brow, recalling her upcoming actions, and exhaled lightly; before long, the circus boss would be arrested, and these animals would be properly cared for by the state—if possible, Ling Yue hoped to take in some of the small animals.

Having spent a long time with the animals, seeing this scene she truly couldn't help but be moved, and moreover, she had the ability to do so.

Over there, the little girl on the hospital bed clutched her stuffed lamb: "Mm-hmm."

As for her words, Sang Sang never doubted them.

Sang Sang lay in bed, afraid to open her eyes, even pulling the covers over herself in fear; her mind was filled with what she had just seen.

Excited adults only see the thrilling performance, while children focus on the animals and ask, in adults' eyes naive and funny, "They're scared—can we let them go back?"

"Wuwuwu the little monkey is scared, Mommy hurry and save it…"

After the video ended, Ling Yue looked toward the stage; the goat staggered halfway across the wire, and at this pace, though a bit slow, it was still basically safe and sound.

Suddenly, a sharp whistle blew, and the animal trainer bowed to the audience: "You wouldn't think this is the most exciting part, would you?"

He grinned brightly: "Don't forget, our act is an airborne handstand—next, please welcome Monkey Man Man to do a handstand on the goat's back for everyone to see! Let's see how it looks!"

Upon hearing that, the audience almost popped their eyes out; in Ling Yue's view, the monkey's motion on the goat's back froze abruptly, and then she heard three whistle blasts.

Without a doubt, this was certainly the circus troupe's command.

The swaying steel wire rope was already unstable and lacked any foothold—now they wanted to add a high-difficulty handstand?

Some people tensed up, and Ling Yue had already heard the surrounding chatter: "Can this even be done? Isn't the difficulty way too high?"

"Eight meters high, and down there it's still that soft steel wire rope—good heavens, if it shakes even a little, we're all doomed!"

"Hehehe, it's so thrilling, I'm starting to like it."

"Why are you looking at me? I paid for the ticket, so I should get this kind of performance—otherwise, what am I watching?"

"Not a shred of conscience!"

"You have compassion, so why are you sitting with me? You spend money buying tickets, you spend money, and the circus will just keep training the animals—so who's really more noble?"

All around was silent; many people regrettably covered their faces, they only thought of novelty, who would have thought of the bitterness behind.

Another portion of people simply stood up and said, "I'm not watching!"

"Dad?"

The father holding the little girl patted her back: "Niuniu, be good, let's not watch."

"Little lamb, little monkey…… how pitiful, Dad……"

Just then, the audience seats erupted in another exclamation, because the animal trainer downstairs actually kicked the steps; the soft, thin steel wire rope, with any slight sway, would cause the goat above to sway.

The goat almost cried out, the fur on its back was yanked hard; amidst everyone's shock, Full Full on the goat's back suddenly propped up its paws, standing upright in a handstand on the goat's back.

Full Full the monkey: "Goat, Goat Brother, I'm begging you, hurry up!"

The stunned goat let out an oh and tried to walk forward as fast as possible.

Below the stage, no one spoke; the venue was dead silent, people watched this explosively exciting extreme acrobatics, forgetting to breathe, staring blankly upward.

At the moment the hooves touched the plank, the goat suddenly burst into tears, big tears streaming down, and at the same time plopped down onto the plank.

Goat: "Wuuuuuuu!"

Full Full the monkey grabbed the goat's back hair: "Scared the monkey to death! I almost thought I'd fall off, just like Soft Soft!"

Saying that, it suddenly realized: "Goat, why aren't you speaking?"

"Are you too sad?"

Goat: "Wuuuuuu, damn monkey, let go of my hand, the hair on my back is going to be pulled out by you!"

Full Full the monkey: "......"

No wonder it's the famous silly goat of the circus.

Ling Yue lowered her head, glanced at the time; only two circus acts had passed, and it was already nine o'clock sharp, with one hour left until ten o'clock start.

Her gaze turned to the stage, the main show began.

The props used earlier were placed aside; a man in a black tailcoat and high top hat stepped out, his face made up, he began moving with great rhythm.

A flick of his wrist, a gorgeous rose appeared in his palm; then he blew on the flower, petals scattering, he took a magic wand that had appeared out of nowhere and pointed it at the brown bear.

This big guy, Bear West stared, suddenly realized it was its turn!

Bear West: "!!!"

Save me, save me, save me!

Watching the exhausted goat and monkey, the injured lioness, even if it was stupid, its simple mind understood one truth: the circus's performance difficulty only gets harder toward the end!

Just now's relief instantly turned to fear; Bear West looked terrified at the magician, yet saw the tip of the magician's magic wand sparkle with a tiny star, the magician gave it a big smile, and with force popped a balloon, two fluffy white pigeons burst into flight!

"Ahhhh, I'm about to burst!"

"Heavens, are we free?"

The pigeons landed directly on the cage, as if bored stupid from being cooped up, they didn't fly, just stared blankly at the brown bear Bear West.

"Goo goo goo goo goo~"

"Hahaha, hurry up and get on stage, it's over, the look of wanting to kill a bear can't be hidden!"

Bear West shuddered violently, locked eyes with the magician, and with a swoosh, erupted with endless potential, sprinting onto the stage.

The magician bent over, placed his hand on its paw; the brown bear Bear West instinctively lifted its foreleg, the music softened, except for the magician's sharp magic wand in his hand…

Everything was so perfect.

When people saw a brown bear ballroom dancing, they covered their mouths in astonishment.

Bear West stiffly began turning in circles according to its original training, a large red cloth draped over its body; it felt a pang of pain as the cloth was undone, and the magician beamed, looking at it: "Look, how adorable this brown bear miss is."

"Hahahahaha!"

The audience below was about to die laughing, a big clumsy bear wore a human's floral puffy dress, with a veil adorning its head; the pink artificial flowers under the light glowed with a halo.

The exquisite costume and the bear's clumsy movements were complete opposites.

The comedic effect made people want to tear up.

The performance had been normal so far, until the magician suddenly produced a large ball, while an assistant took out a plank and placed it on the ball.

Brown bear Bear West: QWQ

It's over.

Magician: "Please welcome our dear brown bear miss to perform a joyful dance combined with acrobatics; I guarantee everyone who sees it will be extremely happy!"

Immediately, people saw the silly brown bear step onto the plank; the large colored ball beneath, unbalanced by gravity, instantly began to roll!

Bear West up there, flailing wildly, limbs flailing, its clumsy, comical appearance provoked wave after wave of laughter; even the animal trainer beside couldn't help laughing, as a staff member he knew best this wasn't an act—this dumb bear was really about to fall.

It was nowhere near as agile as the previous star brown bear Qian Qian, but its comedy was top-notch, so they just let it go on stage being hilarious.

Indeed, its impact had already surpassed that of the other animals.

The animal trainer looked and sighed: "We really should put a little red fruit on our brown bear miss's nose and dab some powder; then she'd look more like a pretty little girl."

That remark made his coworkers burst out laughing.

No one noticed that, in the cage, the other animals on the edge gave fiery glances; the lioness shrugged, and Full Full the monkey seemed infected, also jumping up, but the staff didn't think much of it.

Suddenly, Bear West swayed back and forth, its claws flashing like dancing spells, swiftly lunging at the magician and snatching his magic wand away.

Bear West: "Magic wand, hand it over!"

Immediately, it brandished it.

The magician's terrified expression was incredibly realistic; the audience around Ling Yue discussed, praising the circus actors' true skill.

Ling Yue didn't believe it, because not only was the magician himself terrified, but the nearby staff also had no need to act; perhaps it was really the brown bears planning something.

Ling Yue suddenly recalled the animals' conversation before the circus began; a thought flashed in her mind, and before she could do anything, Bear West sneezed.

Full Full the monkey received the signal, quickly climbed halfway up the high platform, stretched out its hands; Bear West flung it up, and Full Full caught it steadily, astonishing the audience.

"Wow, could there be a little side plot? This circus is truly amazing; the animals are practically as smart as humans."

The next moment, staff shouted: "Stop it quickly!"

It's already too late.

Climbing onto the platform again, the monkey's mood was utterly different; it swung its arm forcefully, and the huge light bulb shattered with a bang, along with all the circuits and wires, sputtering sparks!

In an instant, the brightly lit circus plunged into darkness!

Suddenly deprived of light, the venue erupted in an uproar; terrified screams and beasts' roars rose in the darkness, and spectators rushed toward the exits without regard for anything.

"Holy shit, the animals are going to eat people—run!"

Ling Yue rose to her feet, dodging everyone with pinpoint accuracy; by now she could even see souls, so night vision was nothing special.

She saw the animal trainer instinctively trying to block, struck precisely by the brown bear wielding a colored ball; the magician fared worse, being sat upon by it, yet these animals harmed no spectator, instead fleeing with the crowd.

The lioness Lily bounced out.

The goat bleated: "Oh my, do you not know to respect elders!"

It suddenly turned its head: "Who? Who's sitting on my back?"

Ling Yue twitched the corner of her mouth, using all her strength to keep from laughing, as a man screamed 'ahhh' while riding backward on the goat.

"Mommy, save me!"

The monkey perched on a person's back, truly like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each displaying its powers.

Ling Yue hesitated no longer, she went straight through the crowd, closely following the animals, and discovered they had ultimately gathered in a corner behind the circus.

The lioness Lily was about to go her separate ways when suddenly she looked outward, eyes wary, extended her sharp claws, and growled low: "Who?!"

Bright moonlight shone upon the ground, a footsteps sounded, and Ling Yue stepped out, gazing at the animals.

"Don't worry, it's only me."

"What do you want?"

"I've come to make a deal with you."

At 9:50, the surveilling police received word that the circus animals had suddenly rioted, causing panic among many spectators, and the animals had already fled in the chaos.

This message was relayed temporarily; Lin Shaoze was on the scene: "How is the circus situation?"

As his words fell, they saw the gate of the rented compound pushed open, a large crowd fleeing in disarray, shouting while running: "Ahhh, the animals are eating people! The animals are eating people!"

Having just run a few meters out of the gate, the crowd saw police swarming over: "Officer, save us! The circus animals have all escaped!"

The speaker's face was ashen; he never imagined encountering such a thing, evidently the animals' roars had frightened him greatly.

He hadn't even wondered why the police arrived so quickly.

The small contingent of police originally stationed here to apprehend Boss Li: "…"

Lin Shaoze led another team to continue the stakeout, meanwhile checking what had happened at the circus; Boss Li, also known as Muzi, would he show up or not.

Meanwhile, upon receiving a call from his subordinate, Li Jiang froze: "The animals escaped during the performance?"

He cursed softly: "Bad timing for trouble; if I'd known, I'd have sold them together!"

"Forget it, no need to worry about them; pay out the wages I left, and tell all staff to get lost! Wait for me at the usual spot—I need to settle what's on my hands now."

He said while glancing at his wristwatch, adjusting the mask snug against his face; it was exactly ten o'clock.

After winding through twists and turns, he finally entered the basement elevator at a hidden corner.

"Wait."

A youth in a facial-pattern mask came running over; Li Jiang stared, the latter already had produced an invitation and hurried inside.

For some reason, he suddenly felt the elevator sink, instinctively glanced at the other—average build, wearing a facial-pattern mask so childishly laughable it was obvious a newcomer.

Thinking this was the final underground trade fair he was hosting, Li Jiang felt a bit of patience: "What number are you? What are you preparing to sell?"

"You want to buy?"

Li Jiang shook his head: "I'm an old man; maybe I can help you."

The young man seemed surprised, looking at him: "You noticed?"

Suddenly he held up three fingers: "I have three! Three prime tigers!"

Li Jiang startled—this wasn't the ferocious beast he had long wanted to obtain, wasn't it said the zoo director had changed, yet still a renowned animal master; how could it suddenly be sold?

He thought, then said a few words.

"How do you know the director isn't selling—"

Li Jiang smiled: "Are you a zoo employee? Secretly pulling them out to sell? I can't tell, but little brother, you've got guts."

He produced a card from his pocket and shoved it over: "This is my number and card; at the underground trade later, ask the attendant where I am, and leave me one tiger."

He suddenly spoke with deep meaning: "Tiger skin, tiger penis, tiger bones—every part of a tiger is treasure."

This was also why he originally went to the zoo himself: he'd heard those three were cubs of the captured Dongbei tigers, and what he wanted had to be the best!

Meanwhile, backstage at the underground trade, the three tigers lay bored on the ground, when suddenly a chill ran down their backs and they shuddered violently.

"Holy shit, could someone be eyeing my tigers?"

The three tiger brothers glanced aside; various rare animals lay listlessly on the ground, just like them, all drugged—but—

The eldest tiger licked the small air sac stuck above its mouth, chewed it on the ground, and hey, it had potent medicine!

Ling Yue had long anticipated these people would drug the animals, and had made all preparations.

Little Three poked at the cage; as a socially adept tiger, it chattered at the neighboring creature—a sea eagle over a meter tall with wings nearly three meters wide—"How'd you get caught in here?"

"You don't live in that Dongbei backwater, do you? Actually we're kinda fellow countrymen! Though I was born in Jing Shi and have never been to Dongbei."

"Ah, it's all fate—some tigers are born in the countryside, some in Rome; I don't know how I ended up in the big city."

"Hey, why aren't you talking? I heard your hometown is freezing; did you get frostbitten, then someone picked up your corpse?"

Sea Eagle: "…"

"Please, stop talking! Stop talking!"

Unable to bear it, it lifted its wing over a meter long and slapped it over its head, wishing it could faint on the spot.

Damn, it was just quiet for five minutes? Now it starts nagging again—it didn't die in the poachers' hands, it's about to be nagged to death by this guy!

What a sin!!!

Inside the elevator, the man had already left, and the youth followed him out; the lowered hand suddenly waved, a few seconds later the elevator jerked upward, as if it had just shed some heavy load.

The youth with Peking Opera face paint looked at the business card: 'No. 1.'

He let out a low laugh, yet it was a female voice.

After a moment, the youth walked down the long corridor, arrived before the tightly shut doors, after inspection, the gates of the underground trade fair finally opened wide to him——：，，.
