Monster Master: Evidence of the Way

Chapter 238 Discussion

"So Yiyin, do you think Bubulu is hallucinating?"

Jiaozi asked, "Or is there some monster lurking around here that can attack mentally?"

"Honestly—I don't know."

Yi Yin spread his hands and said, "But fortunately, Bubulu was not injured. It seems that we must be more vigilant, especially at night. It is best not to act alone."

"I say, maybe we should do something."

Teach said, "If you do nothing, the task will not complete itself."

"That's absolutely right. Let's go out and reunite with the young lady, and then discuss the next steps."

After Yiyin finished speaking, everyone left the hotel and reunited with Selina.

.

Selina also got up early. It was probably because she was very nervous about being with Fanny that she woke up early.

Only after seeing a few familiar people did Selina feel relieved.

After meeting, they each shared their own information.

When Selena learned about what happened on Bubu Road last night, she seemed very shocked.

"Oh my God, Bubulu, please don't scare me. Don't do that again."

Selina punched Bubulu angrily. She would never forgive herself if she lost people because of the mission.

"Hahahaha, don't worry, big sister, I will never do it again next time." Bubulu scratched his head and laughed foolishly.

"Speaking of which, Big Sister, have you found anything? Fanny didn't do anything to you, right?" Jiaozi asked worriedly.

"She's fine, just a little... um... never mind, let's not talk about that—let's discuss today's schedule. Chairman Shiziyao didn't even give us any hints, it's really frustrating."

"...Obviously. This mission is in the hot springs area, so it's probably right here."

Di Qi explained carefully, "Based on what happened on Bubu Road last night, something seems to be wrong with the hot springs here. It's very likely that some unknown monster has infiltrated and is causing trouble. And the Monster Master Management Association has assigned multiple bases to this mission, which suggests that the monster is quite powerful, at least A-level."

"But if it were really that terrifying, Chairman Lion Yao wouldn't have sent us, the preparatory students, here to die in vain, right?" Jiaozi laughed. "After all, we're the preparatory students who have fought against the First Ancestor and thwarted Ouroboros's schemes more than once. We won't be tripped up by these stumbling blocks."

"Don't underestimate the enemy. Mission ratings are subject to change at any time."

Yiyin said, "But fortunately, we still have plenty of time. Why don't we split up and investigate the area today? For efficiency and safety, I suggest working in pairs."

"But there are five of us, and even if we pair them up, there won't be enough for us to share."

Bubulu, who had been unable to understand what everyone was discussing, finally understood something. He used all his life's knowledge and began to question the rationality of Yiyin's plan.

"Hahahaha, who said there are five of you? Don't you still have me?"

As he spoke, a burst of hearty laughter sounded from behind the crowd.

It was Fang Yixing! He didn't know how long he had been eavesdropping.

"Who is this……"

Selina obviously didn't know Fang Yixing yet, so Bubulu introduced him to them:

"Big sister, this is Fang Yixing, a friend we just met last night. Fang Yixing, this is Selina, also our companion."

"Hello Fang Yixing. From what you said, you want to team up with us?" Selina asked.

"To be honest, that's exactly what happened. As for me, I'm new here and don't have much to do, so it's a good opportunity for me to go for a walk with you guys."

Fang Yixing's answer was absolutely impeccable, but the question was, could they really trust him?

Jiaozi blinked. He decided to keep the unstable factor close to him and monitor it carefully, so he put his arm around Fang Yixing's shoulders and said affectionately:

"Then let me go with Brother Fang. I think Brother Fang and I get along very well. Maybe we have a lot to talk about."

"Hahaha, that's exactly what I was thinking. Then, Jiaozi, let's go."

After saying that, Jiaozi and Fang Yixing left arm in arm.

There are four people left.

"Bubulu, come with me."

Di Qi said with a dark face, "Considering your situation last night, I think it's necessary to supervise you at all times to prevent you from doing stupid things again."

Having said that, Di Qi pulled Bubulu away without saying anything.

"Hey, Diqi, don't pull me, I can walk by myself...!"

Soon Bubulu and Diqi also left, leaving only Yiyin and Selina on the field.

"Looks like we're a team of two."

Selina said, "Yiyin, let's go too. We can't be left behind by them."

.

That being said, there's really not much to investigate.

The hot spring town was much smaller than it appeared. When they first arrived, it was difficult to see because it was dark, but it was revealed as soon as the sun came out.

If I had to compare it to something, this hot spring village is even more shabby than the slums of Taras. I really don't know how these buildings, which look like they were built forty years ago, have survived to this day.

It is worth mentioning that when Yiyin and Selina were out, they happened to see Fanny.

Fanny seemed to still be standing at the entrance of the village waiting to receive customers, but judging from the current situation, it was common not to receive a single customer for a week.

"Hi, Fanny."

Yiyin felt that he should say hello to Fanny, but after thinking about it, he still didn't know how to start the conversation.

"..."

Fanny just glanced at him calmly, then slowly said:

"If you want to soak in the hot springs, feel free to do so, as long as you don't conflict with other guests. Our hot springs are open from 10:00 AM to 9:30 PM. Private soaking outside of these hours is prohibited and will be at your own risk. You'll need to bring your own yukata, but if you don't have one, you can ask John for one—at your own expense, of course. You can either discard it or take it with you afterward. So, is there anything else you need to ask?"

Looking at Fanny's aggressive attitude, Yiyin thought that she must have transferred her dissatisfaction with Bubulu and Jiaozi to herself.

"Actually, there is another question."

Yiyin thought it would be better to ask as early as possible to avoid any unexpected changes in the future.

"That is, does this hot spring resort have any special services? You know, those special hot springs that people look forward to, open only one day a year."

Hearing this, Fanny showed a mysterious expression that was neither a smile nor a smile.

"For your safety, please don't ask questions you shouldn't ask. When the time comes, I will answer everything in detail."
