Why isn't what I command considered a beast?

Each move was executed with effortless skill and ease.

Mingxi, on the other hand, was sweating profusely.

My pet has really taken the idea of ​​'asking questions' to a whole new level!

With the Thunder Bird as a powerful 'support', the man has no way to perform hand seals for summoning.

After about ten minutes, the man was covered in injuries.

As the saying goes, even the most skilled martial artist is afraid of a kitchen knife.

Besides, men don't really have any 'martial arts skills'; at most, they're just thick-skinned and have stronger defenses. In the end, they're still just mortals.

No wonder it's so unpleasant.

"...You're the kid next door, aren't you? Barging into my house like that is a crime, I can sue you!"

Zhang Cheng stared at the girl in front of him with a livid face; he had already recognized her.

Next door lived an old man and a young boy. The old man was sick and the boy was weak. After he moved in, he only had a few brief encounters with the old man. He was an ordinary person with no luck and hadn't even awakened his beast-taming talent.

The younger one was someone he bumped into at the door one night when he was returning home late after a party with friends, but before he could even say hello, the child rudely closed the door.

It was as if he had some ulterior motive towards her.

Ugly in appearance, but with beautiful dreams.

He's a very picky eater.

Mingxi had no idea what men were thinking, otherwise she would have beaten them to a pulp.

The original owner wasn't ugly at all; it was just that this past year had been too tough and tiring. Excessive fatigue and lack of nutrition had left her looking pale and emaciated.

In fact, her features were small and delicate, and her eyes and brows had a rare sharpness, almost exactly the same as Mingxi in her previous life. Mingxi was one of the most beautiful women in the surrounding area.

The men who were pursuing her lined up from one street to the other.

How could it be ugly?

At most, she's not noticeably beautiful now!

Well, that's not the point.

The key point is that this was actually the first formal encounter between Zhang Cheng and Ming Xi.

I never expected to encounter this situation on my first try.

What Zhang Cheng didn't expect was that the thin, malnourished child next door, who looked like he was destined to die young, had actually awakened!

Wasn't she said to be only 14 years old?

Moreover, he also contracted a mid-level pet beast that he didn't even recognize.

This man and beast not only ruined his plans, preventing him from enjoying the delicious food he had been craving, but also beat him up, leaving him covered in injuries.

Zhang Cheng was both irritable and on the verge of collapse. He was angry, frustrated, and miserable.

He wanted to summon his pet beast to kill the man and beast in front of him.

But no matter what he did, he couldn't complete the hand seals.

Despite her slender build, the girl is incredibly agile and her attacks are often unpredictable and difficult to defend against.

And her pet animal was utterly lewd.

What terrifies him even more is that if tonight's events are exposed, his reputation, his marriage, and his future will be thrown into chaos, and he may even face imprisonment.

If he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have been so impatient! Anyway, the prize he had in his grasp wasn't going to slip away!

Now all we can do is...

A fierce killing intent flashed in Zhang Cheng's eyes. He took a deep breath and decided to calm the child in front of him first.

The most urgent task is to summon my pet beast and get through this predicament first.

He forced a smile that he thought was kind and gentle.

"Little sister, I think you must have misunderstood something."

"Actually, your uncle and your sister Dingding were rehearsing just now. She participated in her school's drama performance, but she said she couldn't perform one scene well, so she begged your uncle for help."

Upon hearing this, Shao Dingding's face turned pale.

Sparks of hatred ignited in her tearful eyes.

"I didn't, sister, don't believe him, he's lying to you!"

Zhang Cheng secretly resented his stepdaughter for ruining things, and while struggling to dodge the relentless attacks, he pressed on relentlessly:

"Little sister, Dingding is obsessed. Think about it, Uncle is her father, how could he possibly do anything bad to her? We really are just rehearsing!"

He didn't expect the girl in front of him to actually believe him; he was just trying to distract her.

If she hesitates even slightly, disrupting her attack rhythm, he will find an opportunity to form hand seals, and then it will be up to him whether to kill or torture her.

In Zhang Cheng's view, Mingxi was just a child who hadn't fully grown up and was not mentally mature. Hearing him say this would definitely make him waver.

Unfortunately, his plan was destined to fail.

Mingxi's attacks never stopped for even 0.01 seconds from beginning to end.

Ah.

If she had a knife, Mingxi would have chopped off the man's claws.

rehearse?

Which rehearsal involves actors stripping down to their underwear? Are the actors stepfather and stepdaughter?

Moreover, she had just witnessed the disgusting thing this man was doing.

Is this also a rehearsal?

"Uncle, don't be so ridiculous. Who are you trying to fool, some brilliant person?"

Want to form a hand seal?

Once he's in prison, he can have no problem reaping the rewards!

Mingxi sneered and kicked Zhang Cheng hard in the chest, knocking him to the ground.

Under the man's incredulous gaze, she stepped on his right wrist just in time.

A skillful crushing motion.

As the police officers broke down the door, the man's wrist bone cracked.

Broken.

……

The police station at night is brightly lit with warm lights that stay on all night.

Inside the interrogation room, Mingxi sat in a chair holding a steaming cup of bubble tea, while the Thunderbird quietly perched on her shoulder.

The human and the beast were both very well-behaved.

There was not a trace of cruelty or sleaziness in it.

They look just like two harmless little cuties.

Sitting opposite her were two dedicated public servants, who were responsible for taking Mingxi's statement.

"Name?"

"Mingxi".

"age?"

"14."

"..."

After Mingxi finished recounting the events of the night's case, the policewoman who was taking notes looked up and couldn't help but ask a question out of curiosity:

"Xiao Mingxi, why did you want the Thunder Demon Bird to use the Light Repelling skill?"

In that situation, the light seemed to have little effect other than alerting the enemy.

Mingxi looked surprised, seemingly not expecting her to ask such a simple question.

"Of course, it's to confirm that someone is really committing a crime inside?"

"Otherwise, if we only rely on a vague and ambiguous 'Denggra,' how can we know if it's true or false? I'm not stupid."

"Besides, I can't let your operators see me breaking into someone's house without any proof, can I? I don't want to go to jail."

What she said made so much sense that the policewoman was speechless for a moment.

Ke Junyu, standing next to the policewoman, remained calm.

Lin Xue is new and has very little experience in handling cases, which is why she asked such a silly question.

But this little Mingxi, at such a young age, has such a clear and delicate mind. Her actions seem impulsive and reckless, yet she is cautious and careful at every step.

Be brave and resourceful.

That's what's truly rare.

He coughed lightly and said with a smile, "Xiao Mingxi has considered things very carefully. In that situation, it was the right thing for you not to trust that Denggra. No one can guarantee that it wasn't a trap specifically designed for you."
