"Steel."
"Steel."
At this time, the little steel falcon called twice again.
"Tooth."
"Tooth."
Yabao was stunned for a moment when listening to the speech and took the initiative to translate it.
"You want me to help you find your beastmaster?" Qiao Sang looked at the pet in front of him with a strange expression.
No wonder he gave me a nice guy card right at the beginning, it turns out he wanted to ask me for help.
"Steel."
The little steel falcon nodded.
"This is easy." Qiao Sang picked up the phone and prepared to contact Yuna.
The contracted pets all wear identity bracelets. Since this pet can appear here, it should be the pet of a guest inside. We just need to ask the owner of this house to verify it.
"Steel!"
The little steel falcon looked at the human's actions in front of it, and when it realized what she was trying to do, it suddenly became anxious, swooped over and snatched the phone away with its wings.
“Xunxun!”
Before Qiao Sang could ask any questions, the little treasure hunter appeared and quickly snatched back the phone. He called out in a warning, saying that the phone must not be touched, otherwise what would happen if it broke? Suddenly, his eyes fell on the little steel falcon and he looked at it carefully.
At the same time, the little steel falcon also squinted his eyes and looked at the little treasure hunter.
Both parties felt that the other looked familiar.
They just looked at each other for two seconds.
“Xunxun!”
Little Xunbao showed an expression of "It turns out to be you!"
The little steel falcon also recognized who the little treasure hunter was, and without saying a word, it turned around and flew away.
Despite its quick reaction, the disparity in strength between the primary pet and the advanced pet was too great. The little steel falcon only flew a distance of more than two meters before a black shadow bound its claws and pulled it back.
"Steel!"
The little steel falcon turned its head and flapped its wings downwards. A sharp light as if it were real instantly cut through the shadow.
The light seemed to leave a faint scratch on the shadow, but it quickly disappeared.
The little steel falcon was pulled in front of Qiao Sang by the shadow.
It looked down at the undamaged shadow on its paw, then at Xiao Xunbao, then at the human in front of it, and its brain started working rapidly.
“Steel…”
Then, the little steel falcon called out to Qiao Sang to show his weakness, saying that it was all a misunderstanding.
“Xunxun!”
“Xunxun!”
Little Xunbao anxiously pointed to the identity bracelet on Yabao's paw to his beastmaster.
It wasn't a misunderstanding at all. It saw with its own eyes that guy broke into the room in the middle of the night and tried to steal Brother Yabao's bracelet! "Ya Ya!"
What?! Steal its bracelet? Yabao bared his teeth.
Qiao Sang was stunned for a moment, then remembered that there was such a thing, Xiao Xunbao had told her about it.
"Was it that night in District 13?" Qiao Sang asked.
“Xunxun!”
Little Xunbao nodded affirmatively.
It’s this guy, there’s absolutely no mistake!
Qiao Sang frowned and looked at the little steel falcon with a little more caution.
Those who come here to attend the banquet are people with some background, and they shouldn't let their pets do things like stealing identity bracelets... Qiao Sang's eyes fell on the claws of the little steel falcon and he was slightly startled.
He wasn't wearing an ID bracelet?
Illegal household?
Forgot to wear it? Is there something wrong with its identity as a beastmaster? Sneaking into the party to make a big move? Wait, Yuna said a wild pet broke in, could it be this? For a moment, all kinds of speculations flashed through Qiao Sang's mind.
"Steel!"
"Steel!"
The little steel falcon keenly noticed that the human in front of it looked at it with a strange look in his eyes, so he used his wings to gesture and explain the whole story.
Little Xunbao's expression gradually changed from "I'll see what you say" to "Ah, how could this be?"
“Xunxun…”
Finally, it covered its mouth, tears flashing in its eyes, with an expression that said "you are so miserable" "Gang Gang..."
The little steel falcon sighed, indicating that this was the way it was.
“Ya Ya…”
Yabao looked at the little steel falcon with a sympathetic expression.
Hey, hey, hey, I'm the only one who doesn't understand... Qiao Sang noticed the changes in Yabao and Xiaoxunbao's expressions and couldn't help but say:
"Who can translate for me?"
“Xunxun!”
“Xunxun!”
Xiao Xunbao was the first to translate.
After listening to this, Qiao Sang looked at Xiao Gang Falcon with a strange expression and asked, "You said that your beastmaster came to District 3 from District 27, but accidentally left you behind. Did you chase him all the way from District 27?"
"Steel."
The little steel falcon nodded.
"You don't have an identity bracelet and are not allowed to come to the Middle Ten District and the Upper Ten District, so you can only use other people's identity bracelets along the way?" Qiao Sang asked again.
"Steel."
The little steel falcon nodded again.
"Where's your own ID bracelet?" Qiao Sang asked with a smile, "Don't tell me you accidentally lost it."
Would a beastmaster accidentally leave his pet behind? It was simply outrageous.
Qiao Sang didn't believe it at all.
"Steel."
The little steel falcon shook its head. It didn't have an ID bracelet.
"Search."
Small treasure hunt simultaneous translation.
Qiao Sang stared at the little steel falcon and saw that its eyes were sincere and it certainly didn't look like it was lying.
"Why is there no ID bracelet?" Qiao Sang asked.
"Steel."
The little steel falcon had no choice but to explain.
Its Beast Tamer is not a Beast Tamer, so he does not have an identity bracelet.
What do you mean its beastmaster is not a beastmaster... After hearing Xiao Xunbao's translation, Qiao Sang was stunned and couldn't understand it for a while.
Suddenly, Qiao Sang remembered a passage about the Super Star that his astronomy teacher had taught on Blue Star: "Some wild pets are also gentle. After long-term contact, there are many examples of ordinary people living peacefully with wild pets. These people are not beast masters, but they can make pets do things for them. We call them pseudo-beast masters."
Qiao Sang suddenly realized: "Your beastmaster is a fake beastmaster?"
"Steel."
The little steel falcon nodded happily, and the human in front of him finally understood.
This makes sense. No wonder its beastmaster accidentally left it behind. A fake beastmaster is not a real beastmaster. Without the Beast Taming Code, he cannot summon the pet back, nor can he sense the pet's location at all... Qiao Sang's eyes softened: "Even if that's the case, stealing someone else's identity bracelet is not a good behavior."
"Steel."
The little steel falcon nodded obediently to show that he understood.
"Steel."
Then, it looked steadily at the human in front of it and called out again.
"Search~"
Little Xunbao looked at his own beastmaster and translated simultaneously.
You are a good person~ Qiao Sang: "..."
Here he comes again. Next, he will definitely ask me to help find a beastmaster... Qiao Sang took the phone back from the little treasure hunter's claws and said, "I'll call the police for you. The police should be able to help you find your beastmaster."
"Steel!"
"Steel!"
Hearing this, the little steel falcon flapped its wings anxiously, indicating that the police should not be called.
This time there was no need for Xiao Xunbao to translate. Qiao Sang understood what Xiao Gangfen meant based on his reaction and expression.
"Why?" Qiao Sang put down his phone and asked puzzledly.
“Steel…”
The little steel falcon suddenly felt a little regretful. It felt that although the human in front of it was a good person, he didn't seem to be very smart.
"Steel."
"Steel."
The little steel falcon explained using gestures.
It stole someone else's identity bracelet and came all the way from District 27. If I call the police, I will be arrested.
Qiao Sang's expression remained unchanged as he looked at Little Steel Falcon: "But he will also help you find your beastmaster, right? You are only here to find your own beastmaster. As long as he explains everything to the police and takes responsibility, he should be able to get you out of the police station."
“Steel…”
When the little steel falcon heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched, as if he wanted to laugh, but he held it back.
It showed a hesitant expression.
Then, the little steel falcon seemed to have thought of something, stretched out its wings and plucked a feather from its back without hesitation.
"Steel."
It was obviously a painful thing, but the little steel falcon seemed not to feel any pain and handed over the feather with a grin.
Qiao Sang was shocked by Xiao Gangsuan's actions: "What are you doing?"
“Xunxun…”
While translating, Xiao Xunbao clenched his fists and placed them in front of his mouth, looking in pain, as if the feather had been plucked from his body.
"You said I should sell this feather for money and not call the police?" Qiao Sang was stunned when he heard the translation.
"Steel."
The little steel falcon nodded.
My God, the ways of the world have actually been mastered by a pet beast... Qiao Sang was shocked and speechless for a while.
"Steel!"
Seeing that the human in front of him didn't say anything, the little steel falcon thought that the other party thought the gift was too little, so he stretched out his wings, plucked another feather from his body, and then handed it over.
Qiao Sang: “!!!”
"Steel!"
The little steel falcon gritted his teeth and continued pulling.
"Stop pulling it out!" Qiao Sang hurriedly stopped him, "If you pull it out again, you'll be bald!"
"Steel."
The little steel falcon obediently lowered its wings and spread out the plucked feathers in front of Qiao Sang.
Qiao Sang: “…”
This pet is so cruel to me... Qiao Sang looked down at Feather, feeling helpless but also admiring him.
Although she didn't know what the pet in front of her was called, it was not difficult to guess from its appearance and the hardness of its feathers that it was a pet with steel attributes.
It is normal for ordinary bird pets to lose feathers, but the feathers of bird pets with steel attributes are usually very strong. Not to mention falling off, even if they are attacked, they may not lose a single feather.
But the pet in front of him pulled out several of them without changing his expression...
This perseverance is simply amazing...
I don’t know what it’s called… Qiao Sang didn’t take the feather and said, “I’m still a student and I don’t have much time. If you have a photo of your own beastmaster or know where he is, I might be able to help you.”
"Steel!"
Upon hearing this, the little steel falcon's eyes lit up instantly and it pointed in the direction of Sfevo Manor with its wings.
Looking at the movements of the little steel falcon, Qiao Sang guessed without waiting for the little treasure hunter to translate:
"You mean your beastmaster is in here?"
"Steel!"
The little steel falcon nodded repeatedly.
Qiao Sang was speechless:
"You were in there just now. Now that you know your beastmaster is here, why don't you just go and look for him?"
“Steel…”
The little steel falcon showed a helpless expression. The space inside was too big and there was a lot of room for things. It kept crying all the way through and couldn't move at all.
“Xunxun…”
Xiao Xunbao seemed to feel the same way and translated with a helpless expression.
I see you're quite mobile, and you even went to the toilet... Qiao Sang complained while asking, "What's the name of your beastmaster?"
…
"Ashley." A black maid in a black maid outfit praised while eating the food in her mouth: "Your food is really delicious."
"If it tastes good, eat more." She said with a smile.
“你这么能干，难怪能从二十七区来到这里。”黑人女佣感叹道。
“她能来这可跟做饭好吃没关系。”边上的白人男佣一边喝汤一边说道：“她是在二十七区的时候救了克雷尔先生才被带回来的。”
“哦天呐，这我还是第一次听说。”黑人女佣看向阿什丽吃惊道：“克雷尔先生不是C级御兽师吗？怎么还需要你来救？而且你也不是御兽师啊。”
白人男佣说道：“是不是御兽师有什么要紧的，只要有手段能让宠兽听话不就行了。”
说着，他看向对面的栗发女人：“你说是吧，阿什丽。”
阿什丽笑笑没有说话。
黑人女佣见阿什丽没有否认，喟叹道：“原来你是伪御兽师，可惜你没有御兽典，不然我觉得你肯定不比那些御兽师们差。”
阿什丽柔声道：
6◇9◇书◇吧
“只是巧合罢了，我哪能跟真正的御兽师们比。”
“知道就好。”白人男佣接话道。
一时间，餐桌的气氛有些僵硬。
黑人女佣见气氛不太对，快速的往嘴里扒了几口饭，起身道：“我去看看宴会那边需不需要帮忙。”
说完，快步往门口走去。
待黑人女佣走后，白人男佣也不装了，脸彻底冷了下来。
阿什丽放下手里的叉子，淡淡道：
“巴克，我记得我没惹你。”
白人男佣冷哼一声：“我只是看不惯你。”
阿什丽疑惑道：“为什么看不惯我？”
“你自己做了什么你自己心里清楚。”白人男佣冷声道。
阿什丽叹气道：
“就因为我让鸣鸣鸟去吓菲丽丝小姐，然后我又装作路过的样子去赶走鸣鸣鸟吗？”
巴克盯着她不说话。
阿什丽继续道：
“别人或许不理解，但你应该知道的巴克，你跟我一样来自下十区，我没做伤害菲丽丝小姐的事情，我只是想在这里好好的生活下去，尽可能把日子过得好一点而已。”
巴克沉默了几秒，说道：“我看到了。”
阿什丽不明所以：“你看到什么了？”
“那只野生的鸣鸣鸟。”巴克沉声道：“你把装有毒素的针管扎进它平时吃的果子里，又假装好人去救它。”
闻言，阿什丽顿了顿，然后笑得花枝乱颤：“哈哈哈，不要告诉我你这是在同情野生宠兽。”
巴克看了一眼阿什丽，道：“我只是看不惯你用这种方法成为所谓的伪御兽师，我现在很怀疑当初克雷尔先生遇到危险是不是也是你安排的。”
阿什丽笑容平淡了下来：
“你真是太高看我了，我只是个普通人，克雷尔先生是尊贵的御兽师，我能对他做什么。”
这时，门被推开，先前离开的黑人女佣出现在门口：
“阿什丽，克雷尔先生找你。”
……
富丽堂皇的房间内。
“乔小姐，她就是你要找的阿什丽。”管家克雷尔恭敬道。
乔桑打量了一下眼前的栗发女人，转头道：
“你先出去吧，我有话单独跟她说。”
克雷尔退下，并轻轻地把门带上。
“小姐，你找我有事吗？”阿丽什语气恭敬的问道。
“不是我找你。”乔桑说完看向窗帘的方向：“还不出来？”
一颗紫色的脑袋慢慢地从窗帘内探出来，表情既期待又不安。
阿什丽顺着方向看去，愣了一下，然后露出灿烂的笑容：“你怎么来了。”
“钢钢！”
“钢钢！”
小钢隼见对方认出自己，顿时激动地飞扑过来，眼泪大颗大颗的往下掉。
明明拔那么多根羽毛都没哭，现在反倒哭了……乔桑心里莫名闪过一丝异样的情绪。
阿什丽抱着小钢隼，试探着问道：
“小姐，你跟小钢隼是什么关系？”
原来是小钢隼……乔桑笑道：“没什么，就碰巧撞见，顺手帮了一下，谁叫我是个好人呢。”
“钢钢！”
小钢隼听到这话也不哭了，转头用翅膀比了竖大拇指的动作，表示好人认证。
乔桑见状差点笑出声。
阿什丽目光闪烁了下，说道：“小姐，谢谢你把小钢隼送过来。”
乔桑摆摆手：“不用谢，是它自己从二十七区一路过来，我只是负责把它从门口带过来而已。”
“那也要谢谢小姐。”阿什丽恭声道。
乔桑受不了这客气样，道：“我就先走了，你们慢慢聊。”
“钢钢！”小钢隼开心的挥动着翅膀，表示道别。
……
乔桑抱着牙宝往庄园外走去。
小钢隼……好像在哪听过……乔桑稍微回想了一下。
很快，她便想起来了论坛上网友推荐小钢隼又被另一位网友否定的话。
小钢隼的确是不错，脑子聪明，毅力也有，被小寻宝用黑暗控影控制的时候也能看出反应挺快的。
遇到装乖骗契约的问题倒不大，自己如今脑域达到了39%，小钢隼只是初级宠兽，不管是想逃还是强行解除契约应该都做不了……但是如果契约回来的小钢隼不愿意训练问题就大了……乔桑手放进兜里，想先掏出手机看看小钢隼的价位。
突然，她愣住了。
这是……乔桑将兜里的东西掏出放在眼前。
月光下，一根根坚硬的羽毛散发着紫色的光辉——是小钢隼的羽毛。
什么时候放进去的，我居然一点都没有察觉到……乔桑凝视着手中的紫色羽毛，有些意外。
旋即，她想到了什么，掏出手机搜索起来。
记得小钢隼说它的羽毛能卖钱，也不知道一根值多少钱……
乔桑边走边低头看着手机。
很快，搜索结果出来：【一根500联盟币】
500联盟币，好像也不是很多的样子……乔桑看着手中的羽毛，数了下，一共七根。
当时在自己面前明明没有拔七根……
念头刚起，她又想到了小钢隼的处境。
它的御兽师只是个普通人，赚钱的途径有限，现在还要养小钢隼，应该更需要这笔钱……想到这里，乔桑掉头往回走。
她凭着记忆穿过花园，走入廊道，转弯的时候看到了阴影处那道前不久刚见过的身影。
乔桑正要打招呼，忽然听见了对方的讲话声：“你们通缉的那只小钢隼在我这里。”
“我绝对没有认错。”
“这里是费斯沃庄园。”
“对了，我想再确认一下，小钢隼的悬赏金额是20万对吧？”
乔桑：“？？？”
乔桑脑子“嗡”的一声，整个人都愣住了。
什么个情况？
她不是小钢隼的御兽师吗？！
惊愕和迷茫翻涌而上，旋即，她忽然明白了什么。
小钢隼说它的御兽师把它不小心落在了二十七区只是在它看来，但如果阿什丽本就没有准备带上它呢？是啊，上十区不允许中十区和下十区的野生宠兽进入。
阿什丽没有御兽典，严格意义上来讲并不是小钢隼的御兽师。
小钢隼在大众眼里还是野生宠兽，自然也不能在上十区待着。
所以一开始，阿什丽就不准备将小钢隼带过来。
这些，小钢隼都知道吗……乔桑心里升起一股难言的难过。
多单纯的小钢隼，千里寻御兽师，结果没想到对方把它卖了……就在乔桑感慨之际，突然察觉到了背后有一股视线，她茫然的扭过头，看向另一处拐角，然后对上了一双红色的眼睛。
小钢隼咧着嘴，把翅膀放在嘴前，做了个“嘘”的动作。
乔桑：“！！！”
乔桑瞳孔微缩，内心掀起惊涛骇浪，满脑子都是“卧槽”。
它是什么时候在那的？
阿什丽的话它都听到了？
如果听到了它咧个嘴干嘛？不应该痛苦绝望，然后哭吗？
这表情在这个场景出现很恐怖的好吗！
另一边，阿什丽关掉电话，哼着歌，心情愉悦地消失在另一头。
小钢隼见状扇动着翅膀，就准备往另一个反向飞去。
“等等！”
乔桑低声喊道，追了过去。
“钢钢？”
小钢隼转头露出疑惑的表情。
乔桑看着小钢隼神色复杂，问道：“你刚刚是不是都听到了？”
“钢钢。”
小钢隼用翅膀比了个一点点的手势。
“你不难过吗？”乔桑问道。
“钢钢。”
小钢隼愣了一下，咧开嘴叫了一声，表示难过，但没关系，它很早就知道她不是好人了。
乔桑沉默了两秒：“牙宝，翻译。”
“牙牙……”
牙宝表情恍惚的进行着翻译。
乔桑再次沉默，隔了几秒，问道：“既然知道她不是好人了，为什么还来找她？”
“钢钢。”
“钢钢。”
小钢隼用翅膀指了指窗外正好经过一个男人。
乔桑转头看去，发现是刚刚带她来找阿什丽的管家。
“牙牙……”
“牙牙！”
牙宝翻译到一半，突然表情愤怒的翻译起来。
乔桑消化了一下翻译的内容，问道：“那个阿什丽骗你们说这个人是来捕捉你们的，所以你们驱赶了他，但事实是阿什丽利用你们来到了上十区，你们因为这件事家园被毁，长辈也都受了伤？”
“钢钢。”
小钢隼点点头。
“你来这是为了揭露她，让她回到二十七区？”乔桑又问。
“钢钢。”
小钢隼摆摆翅膀。
长辈说过，最好的惩罚就是让她所有的努力都白费。
Qiao Sang hesitated for a moment and asked, "Why are you telling me now?"
"Steel?"
The little steel falcon did not answer immediately, but stared at Qiao Sang and called out, asking if he came back because he saw the feather?
With Yabao's translation, Qiao Sang nodded silently.
"Steel."
The little steel falcon grinned and answered the previous question.
Because you are a good person.
"Xunxun..." Little Xunbao appeared and translated at the right time.
Wow, what a terrifying pet beast... Qiao Sang felt his scalp tingling as he looked at the little steel falcon in front of him.
Although I was given the nice guy card again, the feeling this time was completely different! I originally thought it came to me because of fate in the toilet.
But now that I think about it, it must have seen my good side somewhere and came to me.
When did it set its sights on him? Many thoughts flashed through Qiao Sang's mind.
