Doomsday B&B

Chapter 77 Encountering a Strange Beast

Two days later, all the guesthouse employees who had signed formal contracts received the following message on their personal computers:

"The Logistics Department has now been officially established, and all employees can come to collect their corresponding benefits during their rest time."

Attached: A location map of the Logistics Department.

Upon seeing this message, and since they didn't have any fixed tasks or work hours, Lin Zhiyi and her daughter Chu Yunxi went to the logistics department together.

When they arrived at the logistics department, they found that each of them received not only a car, but also two boxes of fruit, one box of water, one box of milk, one box of instant food, and 100 point vouchers worth 5 points each.

Lin Zhiyi and Chu Yunxi discussed it and chose the same vehicle: a small electric tricycle with a two-in-one cargo bed. They planned to modify it themselves, which would be fun.

On the same day, Qi Yun woke up feeling a bit bored, so she left the guesthouse without telling anyone.

Qi Yun chose a small RV and loaded it with a certain amount of supplies, not too much, which would also provide some cover for her in the future.

Qi Yun was about to leave the guesthouse when he ran into Jiang Xinrui, Jian Xinling, and Jian Lei. Jian Lei was still wearing a cloak with a hood to cover his ears and tail.

Qi Yun stopped the car in front of the three people, rolled down the window, and asked:

"What are you doing here?"

"Ah, Sister Yunyun, that's great! Can you take us there? Brother Jian Lei had Dr. Bai examine him and said that his ears and tail can be perfectly integrated with him and even absorbed into his body. If conditions allow or are met, he can become like a normal Zoan-type ability user. We're going out to find some medicinal herbs and medicinal ingredients."

"Okay, you guys come on up. Anyway, I just want to go out for a stroll and get some fresh air. I don't have any specific destination in mind."

"Haha^_^ That's great, Ling'er, Brother Jian Lei, get in the car quickly. With Sister Yunyun, we're sure we can find the best things for Brother Jian Lei."

As she spoke, she quickly led the passengers to the passenger side and got into the car. Jian Xinling and Jian Lei exchanged a glance and then got in as well.

Seeing that all three had gotten into the car, Qi Yun started the engine and drove off slowly before asking them:

What is your purpose?

"We don't have any either. Dr. Bai said that as long as we encounter Brother Jian Lei, we will have a feeling."

"What? Rui Rui, are you sure you didn't make a mistake?"

“Boss Qiyun, Ruirui is right. That’s exactly what Dr. Bai told me. He said that I will have a feeling when I encounter the right thing, and the stronger the feeling, the more it matches my physical condition and constitution. Conversely, it doesn’t match as well. However, those with weaker reactions can win by quantity, but it’s just not as good.”

"Okay, I understand. I'll just drive wherever I end up, we're not in a hurry to go back anyway."

"Thank you, sister, for helping my brother!"

"Hey, Ling'er, I don't want to hear you say that. Who is our sister Yunyun? Does she need your thanks? You might as well spend more time with her, or turn into a cat and let her pet you."

Before Qi Yun could answer, Jiang Xinrui started rattling off a whole string of words.

Upon hearing this, Jian Xinling transformed into a cat, jumping from the back seat onto Qi Yun's lap. She nuzzled Qi Yun's hand before squinting her eyes and quietly settling down on Qi Yun's lap.

Qi Yun saw the cat lying obediently on her lap, and a smile curved her lips. She drove off again when she suddenly heard Jian Lei speak:

"Please turn right."

Following Jian Lei's instructions, Qi Yun drove to the right. After Jian Lei gave three more instructions, Qi Yun stopped the car.

After parking the car, Jian Lei got out and walked to a large tree. When he reached the tree, he squatted down, took out a small hoe from his bag, and started swinging it around.

The other three watched his actions with curiosity.

After about 5 minutes, Jian Lei dug out a palm-sized, round, green object from the ground. If it were shrunk a little, it would look like a seed of some kind of plant.

Jian Lei handed the items to the three of them to look at, while he continued digging.

The three of them huddled together, carefully examining the item that Jiang Xinrui had taken from Jian Lei.

After glancing at Qi Yun and losing interest, he looked around and suddenly heard a whooshing sound. A flash of red light appeared, and he pounced on Jian Lei's back, accompanied by a squeaking sound.

When the other three saw the creature, they realized it was a fiery red fox. It was perched on Jian Lei's head, not moving, but making constant squeaking noises, as if someone were cursing.

Jian Lei was stunned by the voice in his head, and his hands stopped moving.

When the fox saw that Jian Lei had stopped moving, it stopped barking, jumped off Jian Lei's head, and squatted down where Jian Lei had dug.

Qi Yun found it funny, so she stepped forward and spoke to the fox:

"What, have you become a spirit or something? Get out of the way!"

"Squeak, squeak, squeak squeak..."

The fox kept howling when it heard Qi Yun's words.

At this moment, Jian Xinling suddenly said to Qi Yun:

"Sister, it says that's its treasure, it belongs to it, and it won't let us touch it."

As soon as Jian Xinling finished speaking, the fox suddenly raised its head beside her.

"You say it's yours, so it's yours. What proof do you have?"

"squeak……"

"Alright, stop yelling. You buried those things there because you didn't need them. If our people hadn't dug them up, you would have forgotten about them. You might as well have given them to us."

"Zhizhi, Zhizhi..."

The fox's cries suddenly subsided, carrying a hint of unease.

At this moment, Jane suddenly became excited and said to the fox:

"Since you don't need it, why don't you give it to us? Giving it to us could save our lives."

Hearing Jian Xinling's words, Qi Yun knew she had guessed correctly, and continued, picking up where Jian Xinling left off:

"How about this, we'll trade with you, okay? Do you want the meat or the crystal core?"

"squeak!"

Jian Xinling, her eyes filled with complex emotions, translated the fox's words and said to Qi Yun:

"It said it wanted meat, lots and lots of meat."

"Puch."

Jiang Xinrui couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Qi Yun smiled too.

Then Qi Yun took out a pile of meat and placed it in front of the fox, saying:

"How about these?"

Before Qi Yun could react, the fox had already squatted on the meat.

Seeing this, Qi Yun said to Jian Lei:

"Alright, it's solved. You can keep digging."

Suddenly, the fox cried out again:

"What's wrong now? Didn't I give you meat?"

"Sister Yun, no, it said there are similar things, and asked if we still want them. If we do, it will send them to us."

"Yes, go ahead."

Upon hearing Qi Yun's answer, the fox that had just darted out returned and squatted on the meat, seemingly lost in thought.

Qi Yun saw this and agreed. She bought a storage space of only 3 cubic meters from her system shop, took it out, and ignoring the curious looks from the fox and the others, grabbed the fox's paw and poked it.

Ignoring the fox's screams, Qi Yun dripped the fox's blood onto the storage space. The moment the blood touched it, the storage space in Qi Yun's hand vanished. Then, she released her grip and said to the fox:

"Alright, just put the meat away."

Then the four of them heard the fox squeak incessantly.

Qi Yun, whose head was throbbing from being called, interrupted:

"Alright, stop yelling and go get your things."

The fox heard her voice, froze for a moment, then put away the meat and ran away.

Seeing the fox run away, Jiang Xinrui asked Qi Yun:

"Sister Yunyun, aren't you afraid it will run away?"

"Do you think my things are so easy to take?"

"Too."

Jiang Xinrui nodded and said.
