Chapter 257 The Search for Truth Part Two



Only one girl felt her heart race for a moment when she saw the news. She seemed to feel that this matter was related to her, but she had no memory of it at all, and in the end, nothing came of it.

Xiao Li has arrived in Yuncheng, a thousand miles away. She heard that it has a pleasant climate all year round and is a great place for people to travel.

However, this place is close to the border and accidents happen frequently, so Xiaoli thinks this would be a good place.

Xiao Li first went to a raw stone auction house and bought two raw stones. On the spot, she found top-quality jadeite. Although it was not big, it sold for a high price of 80 million.

Xiao Li instantly became a little rich woman.

She went to Jiang City and rented a guesthouse, where it would belong to her for the next year.

At night, she stood on the rooftop, enjoying the gentle breeze and listening to the distant sound of the waves—it was the most pleasant thing ever.

An orange cat ran over. Xiao Li looked it over and saw that it was covered in soot and one of its hind legs was dangling. It was obvious that the broken leg had healed crookedly.

I don't know how its owner lost it, but it's good to keep it as a companion.

Xiao Jiu disliked the lack of spiritual energy in this world, so she refused to leave the space.

Xiao Li was having nothing to do, but now she suddenly had the idea of ​​giving it a bath.

After feeding the orange cat some of the spiritual fruits from the space, it became very affectionate with Xiaoli.

Xiao Li filled a basin with water, threw it in, and then added bubbles to it.

I petted it a few times, and this orange cat is too thin, practically skin and bones. It needs to be properly cared for.

It looks much better after I dried it with a hairdryer.

Its fur was a bit bald and even stained with blood, which wasn't very pretty. It was probably scratched by branches in the forest. However, these things didn't matter to Xiaoli.

After being fed the spirit fruit a few times, the orange cat underwent a dramatic change, regaining its majestic appearance as an orange cat.

Xiao Li drugged it before she could straighten its crooked hind leg, put it in a splint, and carefully cared for it. A month later, the orange cat returned to normal.

?

"Meow..."

Xiao Li let it jump onto her lap, holding a book in one hand and stroking the tip of its tail with the other.

From a distance, it is truly a beautiful landscape painting.

Xiao Li's health has improved a lot thanks to the nourishment she has received recently, and her silver hair has regained its shine, making her look incredibly elegant.

Coupled with Xiao Li's aloof temperament, she looks very pleasing to the eye.

The surrounding wooden houses, flowers, round tables, lounge chairs, and orange cat complement the scene...

Lu Sen was stunned. He had only come to stay overnight, but he hadn't expected to see such beautiful scenery.

"Hello! I'd like to stay at your accommodation. What procedures are required?"

Xiao Li looked up, pointed to the chair next to her, and gestured for the other person to sit down.

"Hello! Just pay the fee, it's 500 yuan per day. Here's the account number, just transfer the money in."

Xiao Li handed over the sign with the number written on it. Lu Sen looked at it, resignedly paid, and realized he had only intended to stay for three days, but ended up losing an extra zero.

"Ding-dong~ You have a new message, please check it!"

Xiao Li glanced at it and said, "Okay, the second floor is fine. You can choose any room you like. Thank you for your patronage. You'll be moving out in thirty days."

This landlord is so aloof.

Lu Sen nodded and said nothing more, silently dragging his luggage into the room on the second floor near the garden.

Xiao Li stroked the chubby orange cat; that was the name she had given it.

"Meow~"

Xiao Li followed Fatty Orange into the forest. Fatty Orange had been acting very strangely lately, so Xiao Li decided to follow and see what was going on.

A tent came into Xiao Li's view, and it seemed that two men were talking inside. Xiao Li used her divine sense to investigate and heard them clearly in an instant.

"Tiger, do you think this meat will sell well?"

"It must be selling well, otherwise how would they pay us our salaries?"

"I will never buy frozen rolls again, they're a total rip-off."

"That's enough, get to work."

A foul stench emanated from the vicinity, and Xiao Li saw the fur of many small animals, along with their remains and carcasses, scattered everywhere.

She felt nauseous. These people were terrifying; they didn't even spare small animals like cats, mice, hedgehogs, and squirrels.

The boxed frozen rolls were neatly packed, clearly ready for shipment.

Fat Orange circled around a few times, its fur standing on end, before finally turning back unwillingly. Xiao Li did not appear; she was determined to destroy this sinful place.

She hypnotized the two of them, and they quickly fell into a deep sleep. In their dream, they became a cat and a squirrel.

Skinning and tendon-pulling, bone-crushing and bloodletting—each cut felt like a slow, agonizing death, yet they remained conscious, unable to wake up.

Xiao Li threw the two of them deep into the mountains. Whether they could come back alive depended on luck. Even if they did come back, they would be plagued by nightmares every day and would never have peace in their lives.

She burned the tent and everything around it, and only returned to the guesthouse after everything had turned to ashes.

Judging from what the two people were saying, and the boss as well, she looked at the fat orange cat; this cat had a story.

I fed it some spiritual spring water, hoping it would become a little smarter.

Xiao Li kept an eye on the situation in the mountains. Within a week, two groups of people came, and Xiao Li dealt with them both. No one was innocent. Following this lead, she found the so-called boss.

He lives in a mansion, drives a luxury car, and looks respectable, but who would have thought that he does such dirty things behind the scenes?

Xiao Li hypnotized him and made him sell all his property, donate the money to the welfare home.

He will spend the rest of his life in the shadow of nightmares.

"Meow~"

Fat Orange nuzzled Xiao Li's palm and licked it, making Xiao Li laugh because it tickled her.

Lu Sen saw this from the balcony and laughed along.

Although this landlady is a bit aloof, once you get to know her, you'll find that she just doesn't want to socialize and is actually very easygoing.

"Come down and have some tea with me."

Lu Sen nodded; the case was closed, and he would be leaving soon.

Who would have thought that something would happen over there so soon after he arrived to investigate?

"Great, I happen to have time this afternoon."

Xiao Li knew very well why Lu Sen was here, but none of that mattered to her; she was just a guesthouse owner.

"Meeting is fate, let us respect fate."

Lu Sen picked up the teacup, gently touched it to the ground, and tasted the sweet flavor with a lingering aftertaste.

"Excellent tea!"

Xiao Li chuckled, "How could it not be good? The spiritual tea in this space is something you can't find outside."

"I'm leaving tomorrow. I'll come to see you again when I have time. The scenery here is beautiful and it's a great place for a vacation."

Xiao Li patted the fat orange cat's tail. "The rent is non-refundable, but of course, you can stay for another twenty days."

Lu Sen smiled; he had never intended to get it back in the first place.

"I understand, but could you please stay here another time?"

Xiao Li thought for a moment, "Within a year, I might not be here anymore."
