Chapter 54: The Five Great Generals?

~6 min read 1,134 words

Not long after leaving the Pharmacy,

Qin Bei's phone started buzzing.

He took it out to look.

The person calling him was actually Uncle Lin.

Qin Bei was surprised. If he remembered correctly, this was the first time he had received a call from Uncle Lin since starting high school.

"Hello? Uncle Lin?"

Qin Bei asked in confusion.

Uncle Lin's loud voice came through the phone immediately.

"Where are you? Where did you run off to? Didn't I tell you to wait for me obediently at home?" ===== CHAPTER 138 =====

"I had something to do outside, and I'm already on my way back."

Qin Bei said honestly.

"Alright, hurry back. We have guests at home."

Uncle Lin's tone became meaningful.

After finishing, he even laughed out loud.

Like a mouse that had stolen oil.

It sounded very treacherous.

"I understand."

Qin Bei said, then hung up the phone.

Then he looked up at the sky.

The sun hadn't risen from the west, had it?

His own Uncle Lin actually had friends.

Could it be a female friend from the club?

Qin Bei fell into deep thought.

But his curiosity grew stronger and stronger.

His pace quickened involuntarily.

He couldn't wait to return home.

Driven by curiosity,

in less than an hour,

he was back at his front door.

He took a deep breath.

Qin Bei pushed open the door and stepped inside.

Instantly, three sharp gazes turned toward him.

Uncle Lin, Uncle Jiang, and an auntie he didn't recognize.

Qin Bei raised his hand slightly.

"I... am back?"

This was the first time in many years that anyone other than Uncle Jiang had visited.

It made him feel a bit unaccustomed.

"Alright, you should know why I called you back."

Uncle Lin sat with his legs crossed, looking at Qin Bei thoughtfully.

Qin Bei hesitated for a moment.

"Could it be... that you found out about me and Siyu?"

"Hmm? Siyu? What did you two do again!"

Jiang Bufan reacted instantly.

The calm face he had while sitting on the sofa became tense in an instant.

"Ahem, nothing. If it's not that, then could it be that you, Uncle Lin, were at the club soaking up..."

Before Qin Bei could finish, Uncle Lin stood up quickly, turning into a large black rat.

He reached Qin Bei in an instant and covered his mouth with his hand.

"You little brat, what are you saying to me?"

Uncle Lin said fiercely.

"And what is going on between you and Siyu that you're hiding from me?"

Jiang Bufan also reacted.

He immediately came to Qin Bei and glared at him.

Looking at the two middle-aged men staring at him with burning gazes,

Qin Bei felt a bit nervous.

"Alright, you two, calm down. Don't scare the child."

The auntie who had been sitting on the sofa

spoke with a kind expression.

Then she revealed a kind smile,

as if she were looking at her own son.

This made Qin Bei feel slightly awkward.

"Fangfang, let me tell you, you can't spoil this child. If he were small, you could pamper him, but he's already an adult, so you can't spoil him, lest he talk nonsense!"

Uncle Lin said to the young woman on the sofa, patting Qin Bei on the shoulder while speaking earnestly.

However, his gaze kept shifting to Qin Bei.

His eyes were full of threats.

"Alright, alright, the protagonist is back."

The young woman waved her hand.

Jiang Bufan and Uncle Lin, who were surrounding Qin Bei, immediately took a few steps back.

"Uncle Lin, what exactly is the matter that you called me back so urgently?"

Qin Bei was confused.

"Ahem, let me introduce you first. This is your Aunt Bai. She is a beast tamer, and like you, she is a mechanical-talent beast tamer."

Uncle Lin explained.

"Hello, Aunt Bai."

Qin Bei bowed and greeted her quickly.

Some thoughts were already forming in his mind.

A mechanical beast tamer too...

"Good, good, good,"

Aunt Bai stood up and said with a smile.

"Young and promising. I have a student about your age who is also a beast tamer. You two can get to know each other later."

"Alright, Sister Bai, don't play matchmaker."

Jiang Bufan reacted instantly, like a mother hen protecting her chicks.

He blocked Qin Bei immediately.

Qin Bei blinked his eyes.

Was this... matchmaking for him?

"Alright, jokes aside."

Uncle Lin waved his hand.

The expressions of the three suddenly became serious.

"So, Uncle Lin, what is it that you really wanted to see me for?"

Qin Bei asked curiously.

"Two reasons. First, to confess my identity to you. Second, regarding your pet beast."

Uncle Lin slowly raised two fingers.

Qin Bei raised an eyebrow.

His pet beast.

It looked like it had been exposed.

That made sense.

After all, the shared bike was still left there.

With the power of the Night Patrol Division, as long as they investigated, they would know who had scanned it out.

Besides, Uncle Lin had also seen what he looked like after transforming.

If Uncle Lin heard that young girl describe who had saved her... ===== CHAPTER 139 =====

Uncle Lin would 100% be certain it was him.

But... what did they mean by their identities?

Could it be that they had hidden identities?

"What do you mean by hidden identities? Could it be that Uncle Lin, you are a descendant of some great family, failed in a struggle for property, had your hand broken, and were kicked out?"

Qin Bei fully utilized the imagination he had from surfing the internet in his previous life.

"How come I didn't know your little brain was so smart before?"

Uncle Lin's face darkened.

The serious atmosphere vanished instantly.

"Then what is it you want to say?"

Qin Bei gave up as well.

His gaze wandered over the three of them.

Actually, just now, when Uncle Lin ran from the sofa to cover his mouth, he realized that Uncle Lin's strength was not simple.

That speed.

It was truly fast.

Faster than walking on the water domain in the Bashia form.

Someone with this kind of strength,

how could he just be in charge of logistics for the Night Patrol Division?

"Do you know about the Five Great Generals of the Great Xuan Dynasty?"

Jiang Bufan looked at Qin Bei intently.

Qin Bei's body trembled.

He looked at Uncle Lin.

That man who had lost an arm?
