Chapter 45: Beastfolk's Certificate

Why does it feel like it has no effect at all?

She thought, and the two beastfolk also silently exchanged a glance.

Their town isn't devoid of humans visiting, it's just that this……

This is too unique.

According to reason, it should be fine as long as they check the documents.

But at that moment just now, both he and Xiong Gu lacked the courage to take and examine the documents.

The wolf-headed beastfolk thought silently, Xiong Gu is really reckless, he actually just reached out and stopped her; just now he was afraid this human would suddenly lash out and harm the beast.

The silent Xiong Gu was also reflecting.

He felt his hand still trembling a bit; those motions just now were muscle memory, his brain hadn't reacted yet, but his hand had already reached out.

Pulling it back now would seem deliberate and awkward.

At that moment, Xiong Gu's whole body froze, completely unsure what to do.

Fortunately, this human isn't murderous and is willing to follow the rules.

Xiong Gu had also heard some old rumors about humans.

It's said that each human child can bite off a beastfolk's head in one mouthful; this is what his mother told him when he was a child, begging to go out and play.

Xiong Gu again involuntarily shivered; he really was too rash, fortunately Lang An used his words to steady this human.

But... getting a certificate?

Isn't that supposed to be handled by the Section Chief? Does the Section Chief really want to issue a certificate for this human? If the Section Chief isn't willing……

Xiong Gu nervously pushed open the glass door of the police station, gesturing for Lang An to accompany this human inside first.

Lang An glanced at this partner; he knew full well that Xiong Gu was trying to dump this big trouble onto him alone!

Lang An didn't closely follow Cheng Shuili; instead, he tightly gripped Xiong Gu's hand.

Cheng Shuili turned back and saw this fraternal, harmonious scene; so this is how beastfolk get along?

But right now, she doesn't have the leisure to watch them be 'close'.

"Um... where should I go to get the documents processed?"

Cheng Shuili just asked casually; she wasn't in a hurry at all, but under the effect of dignity, this sentence successfully startled the two beastfolk into a jump.

Lang An instinctively showed sufficient respect, saying, "Please wait a moment, I and Xiong Gu will call the Section Chief right away."

He gave Xiong Gu a nervous glance; the originally stern-faced Xiong Gu also suddenly became nervous.

The two beastfolk exchanged another glance, then left Cheng Shuili here and nervously went together into the office to find the Section Chief.

Cheng Shuili: "???"

For such a small matter of issuing a certificate, must we trouble the Section Chief of the police station to personally handle it?

Then the police station's work efficiency must surely be slow.

Cheng Shuili prepared for a long wait, but unexpectedly, the Section Chief arrived quickly; she is a sheep-headed beastfolk, obviously a girl, with a small pink flower pinned on her uniform.

She looks very cute.

She seemed to have scolded Lang An and Xiong Gu; the two beastfolk followed her honestly, heads lowered, not daring to glance at Cheng Shuili.

The Section Chief narrowed her eyes to size up Cheng Shuili for a moment; after confirming she was truly human, she intended to follow routine and ask her to show her documents, and if there were no issues, she could let her leave.

Cheng Shuili wore a smile; although she had prepared, she was also getting a bit annoyed from waiting.

It's like someone who has walked a long time in the desert, finally returning to the human world, about to enjoy a refreshing bottle of mineral water, that comfortable feeling beginning to swirl in her mind.

But she was told that missing persons must first go make a statement.

Cheng Shuili now feels this way; she finds it hard not to speak up and urge.

"Can we process the certificate now?"

This sentence startled the Section Chief into a jump; her body instantly straightened a bit, her buttocks unconsciously clenched, the words she had prepared slipped from her mind, she gave a stiff smile and nodded, "Yes, yes, I can issue it for you."

Lang An and Xiong Gu exchanged a glance; humans... terrifying humans...

A single sentence actually convinced their boss.

One wolf and one bear still wanted to slip away, but the Section Chief's gaze pinned them in place: "Lang An, Xiong Gu, why don't you quickly fetch unused materials and the seal?"

Xiong Gu stood there dumbfounded, his mind completely blank.

Or Lang An frantically nodded several times, swiftly grabbing blank paper and the seal.

The Section Chief respectfully greeted Cheng Shuili to sit down, asking somewhat nervously: "May I issue you one? A temporary identity certificate, this document allows you to enter any beastfolk town."

"Ah?" Cheng Shuili blurted out instinctively.

She really found it strange; isn't this beast the Section Chief? Why is she asking her about the certificate matter?

Cheng Shuili swore she was merely doubtful, with no hint of dissatisfaction, but these words falling into the ears of the three beastfolk were like a bolt from the blue.

Who exactly provoked this ancestor?

The Section Chief mentally scolded Lang An and Xiong Gu over and over, but upon meeting Cheng Shuili's eyes—showing no anger yet exuding an especially beastly aura—she immediately said, "At most I can issue you three copies!"

Cheng Shuili nodded without changing expression; such a strange reaction, if she couldn't figure it out she'd be a bit dense.

But... the system also didn't say that awe pressure could scare them like this?

Cheng Shuili didn't know; the humans they had seen before were all ordinary, with no aura.

Even for an unfamiliar species, they still had some confidence in their hearts.

But seeing her today was like encountering a completely unknown creature; the more unknown, the more imagination; the more imagination, the more fear.

They directly fell into a dead cycle.

Their psychological defenses were easily shattered.

What little confidence they had was just said away.

The Section Chief hurriedly signed her name on the stamped certificate.

Cheng Shuili took it over to look; the director was called Yang Jiao, and the name was quite cute.

The system also promptly popped up a hint.

【Obtained Beastman's Certificate x3】

【Description: A powerful beastman believes you are qualified to be their friend, thus welcoming you to visit Shou Ren Xiao Zhen! This is the credential for entering and exiting Shou Ren Xiao Zhen; each entry consumes one!】

Cheng Shuili had no intention of leaving just like that; instead, she carefully kept the three certificates, then took out her own store employee certificate, and asked Yang Jiao: "I have this credential; can I freely come and go in the village?"

Yang Jiao took the store employee certificate, examined it carefully, then nodded: "Of course! Esteemed guest, although I don't know where you got this job, this is definitely a symbol of your identity!"

Cheng Shuili nodded, glanced at the perpetually low-headed, silent Lang An and Xiong Gu, sensing Yang Jiao's hostility toward the two beastmen, and let out a relieved smile.

That could also be considered a good thing.

Those three certificates she could sell at a high price.

Since that's the case, she wouldn't waste time arguing with those two beastmen; anyway, this director would certainly not let them off easily.
