Beast Taming: Starting From Zero

Chapter 140: Can I interview you?

Having figured out why it was wet, Fire Fang Dog naturally continued to use its skills as usual; if it weren’t for training, Qiao Sang wouldn’t have bothered to move out of the school.

However, after learning that there was a Water Luyana in the pond, Qiao Sang found herself in a bit of a dilemma.

If she wanted to build a good relationship with Water Luyana, she couldn’t keep causing destruction in its home.

Although water could be replenished, their relationship with Water Luyana wasn’t good right now after all.

Qiao Sang thought for a long time and could only tell Fire Fang Dog to use its skills on the open ground far from the pond.

Anyway, the ground in the courtyard had been mostly ruined by Mars Rain, and when they moved out, they would eventually have to find someone to renovate it, so a few more destructions wouldn’t make much difference.

In the courtyard, the sounds of explosions from Flame Body attacking the ground rose and fell.

Dust flew, and gravel scattered, inevitably falling into the pond.

The Water Luyana at the bottom of the pond opened its eyes and looked at the murky water, and bubbles immediately appeared from its nostrils.

That night, a puddle of water flowed in through the crack under the bedroom door.

The next morning, Qiao Sang was once again woken up by a piercing cry.

She sat up in bed in surprise and saw the exact same scene as yesterday appear before her again.

Qiao Sang leaned against the headboard, rubbing her forehead, and said, “Your Flame Body.”

Fire Fang Dog’s wailing stopped abruptly, and the air seemed to solidify for a moment.

Little Treasure Hunting Ghost silently drank its milk nearby.

As soon as Fire Fang Dog used Flame Body to dry itself, it immediately became energetic.

It turned around and was about to rush towards the courtyard.

“Fang!”

It must be that guy again! It wanted to go find it and fight it for three hundred rounds!

“Wait, there’s no time, we should go to school first,” Qiao Sang quickly made up an excuse to stop it.

She had a bit of a headache; Fire-type Pets and Water-type Pets were naturally somewhat incompatible, and after this series of events, would she really be able to build a good relationship with Water Luyana?

“Fang…”

Fire Fang Dog reluctantly stopped.

To keep the lie going, Qiao Sang had to leave 40 minutes earlier.

Only those who had experienced it could understand the bitterness involved.

Once she was sure no one was in the house, Water Luyana finally closed its eyes peacefully in the water.

Last night, it was really exhausted from trying to change the water to clean water…

Humans were truly vicious; it wasn’t enough for them to set fire in the pond, making it replenish more than half of the water source, and now they had directly polluted the water, forcing it to change all of it from beginning to end.

Too vicious…

If it weren’t for that Ghost-type Pet that never slept always following her, it would definitely make her taste the flavor of water.

In a daze, Water Luyana fell into a deep sleep.

A red and white figure appeared by the pond.

On the way to school.

Qiao Sang sat on Fire Fang Dog and was surprised to find that when they reached the same old spot as yesterday, which was about 290 meters away, Fire Fang Dog didn’t stop and kept moving forward.

“Is the clone at home still there?” Qiao Sang asked.

Since she wasn’t walking herself today, she couldn’t calculate by steps, so Qiao Sang could only estimate their current position based on yesterday’s distance.

It was definitely over 300 meters.

“Fang.”

Fire Fang Dog nodded as it walked.

Qiao Sang immediately felt it was somewhat unbelievable.

What happened? How did the distance for controlling the clone become farther after just one day?

Fire Fang Dog walked, its brain working at high speed, its attention split in two, its mental energy continuously depleting, its expression more serious than during normal training.

Its Yu Beast Master had to rush to school, and although it didn’t have time to beat up the culprit, its clone could!

Thinking this, Fire Fang Dog intensified its focus on controlling the clone.

After advancing another 50 meters, Fire Fang Dog stopped, its expression a bit deflated.

Qiao Sang’s face broke into a smile, and she stroked Fire Fang Dog’s head, praising, “Your progress speed is already comparable to divine speed.”

“Fang…”

Fire Fang Dog comfortably narrowed its eyes.

If Qiao Sang knew that Fire Fang Dog’s focus had increased, thereby extending the distance for controlling its clone, because it wanted to fight Water Luyana, she probably wouldn’t be smiling anymore.

Just as they were about to reach school, her phone vibrated in her pocket; it was an unknown number.

“Hello?”

Normally, Qiao Sang would definitely not answer unknown numbers, but this was a special period; the 5 million yuan matter hadn’t been announced yet.

She carried her phone 24 hours a day, just waiting for it to ring, and she would answer no matter what number called.

“Hello, is this Miss Qiao Sang?”

“It’s me.”

“This is the Hanggang City Public Security Bureau. Your bounty has been approved. Do you have time to come and collect it today?”

“I do!”

Heaven knew how many days and nights she had tossed and turned, unable to sleep, waiting for this call!

After hanging up the phone, Qiao Sang immediately called the Vice Principal to ask for leave.

She didn’t state the specific reason, only that she had something to do.

Liu Yao was quite speechless upon receiving this call.

Who had ever seen a student ask the Vice Principal for leave?

“Don’t you have Teacher Zheng’s contact information?” Liu Yao said tactfully.

Qiao Sang was in an extremely excited mood and completely missed the deeper meaning: “Vice Principal, you’re so smart, how did you know I don’t?”

Liu Yao: “…”

Just as Qiao Sang thought the Vice Principal had hung up, Liu Yao spoke: “If you finish your business today and have time, come to my office. I’ve been so busy lately that I forgot to help you formulate a cultivation direction for your Pet.”

“I have time!”

Qiao Sang happily hung up the phone.

What a good person… She was increasingly finding the Vice Principal reliable now.

The call was from the Hanggang City Public Security Bureau.

Qi Tang Town was a subordinate town of Hanggang City, so such a large bounty naturally had to be collected from the higher-level public security organ, which was the Hanggang City Public Security Bureau.

Since she knew she could collect it today, Qiao Sang was no longer in a hurry to travel; it was still early anyway.

She opened navigation, sat on Fire Fang Dog, and set off for the Public Security Bureau.

If one looked closely, they would notice that Fire Fang Dog was currently about one centimeter off the ground.

Qiao Sang never forgot to let Fire Fang Dog train at all times…

By the time they arrived at the Hanggang City Public Security Bureau, it was 40 minutes later.

As soon as Qiao Sang entered, a beautiful woman with long, flowing hair in the lobby walked over with a microphone, accompanied by a Little Chubby Dove with a camera around its neck.

“Hello, I’m a reporter from Hanggang Focus Channel. May I interview you?”

Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment. The last time she was interviewed by a reporter was during the Bai Xin Competition. Was the popularity of the Bai Xin Competition still there now?

“I’m sorry, I have something to do right now and it’s not convenient,” Qiao Sang refused.

Are you kidding? This was the Public Security Bureau, and she was about to collect 5 million yuan.

What if the interview revealed that she had collected a full 5 million yuan bounty today, and it was broadcast and seen by acquaintances, and everyone came to borrow money from her?

“I just think the Pet next to you looks a bit like the new evolution of Fire Fang Dog that’s been circulating recently, and I wanted to know the name of this Pet,” the beautiful reporter explained.

So it wasn’t because of the Bai Xin Competition that she was being interviewed…

“I’m sorry, it’s not convenient right now,” Qiao Sang still refused.

Five minutes later, Qiao Sang arrived at the designated reception room, accompanied by an officer from the registration desk.

As soon as she entered, she saw a familiar face.

“Hello, you must be Miss Qiao who apprehended the A-class wanted criminal, Zhou Xian. I’m a reporter from Hanggang Focus Channel, and I came specifically to interview you. We just met,” the beautiful reporter said with a microphone and a smiling face.

Qiao Sang: “…”
