Chapter 5 The Cunning Demon King and the Foolish Dog (Part 5)



On the same day, the Fox Family, a top-tier family in City A, mobilized all its resources to search for their youngest son, Fox Qing, who had been ambushed by an exorcist.

As spiritual energy dissipates, the bloodlines of demons become increasingly weak. Coupled with humanity's overexploitation of nature, many demons have entered human society to survive.

A fierce battle broke out between humans and demons a thousand years ago, resulting in casualties on both sides. Under the negotiation of the leaders at the time, the two sides signed the "Human-Demon Peace Treaty".

From then on, the two sides lived in harmony. The confidentiality agreement stipulated that, in order to maintain the purity of their bloodline and social stability, demons must not reveal their identities to humans.

As times progress and time is merciless, with the spiritual energy becoming increasingly scarce, the bloodline of the demon race is becoming increasingly rare, and very few people know about it anymore. However, those who do know about it still dare not underestimate these demons, simply because their strength is on a completely different level from that of humans, even in modern times.

Although there is a contract between the two sides, there is a profession of exorcist among humans, who specialize in hunting demons with criminal tendencies and criminal records. There are also demons who have irreconcilable hatred and ancestral feuds with humans.

In the past, the demon race turned a blind eye to those who only killed evil demons. But who knew that Sima Zhao, the head of the top demon-slaying family in this generation, was a radical hidden among humans. He believed that "those who are not of our race must have different hearts."

He revealed his true colors after only half a year in power, uniting demon hunters from all over the country to brainwash them into believing that the demon race was a scourge to the world and that if they were not eliminated, disaster would befall humanity...

The Fox Clan of City A are descendants of the Nine-Tailed Fox. The Fox Clan does not value solitude and its development and inheritance are the best among the demon clans. They have a good relationship with the human race, which is why they were the first to be targeted by radical demon exorcists.

The first person to be targeted was Hu Qing, the young master of the Hu family, who is said to have ancestral blood. He was attacked by a group of demon exorcists yesterday and his whereabouts are currently unknown.

The fox family was furious, and so were the human leaders.

Isn't this blatantly trying to incite conflict between humans and demons? Demons have lived peacefully in the city for thousands of years; how could they possibly eradicate the other completely? What would happen to the millions of ordinary humans if they failed?

idiot!

Now everyone can only hope that the young fox clan leader is still alive, otherwise... this is not something that humans can easily fool.

...

Meanwhile, after dinner, Aunt Wang prepared to take 056 out for a stroll.

Walking the dog is a necessary activity. She has been quite busy since Qi Chu was discharged from the hospital. These past two days, Qi Chu has been in better condition, so she has had time to walk the dog: "Look at our Qi Qi, he must have been so bored these past two days!"

056 was very happy: "Woof~"

It's impossible for it to suffer from pent-up emotions. The robot's personality is only set to positive emotions. It's still confused about human emotions and is in the process of just learning about the new world. It hasn't even experienced anger or sadness yet.

Qi Chu has gotten used to having the dog playing nearby these past two days. It's quiet and doesn't make a fuss. Occasionally, petting it can relieve stress.

Thinking that the dog also needed to relieve stress, he could only calmly watch as the dog was happily led out.

It's just a trip, why are you having so much fun?

Don't feel closer to just anyone you meet than to him.

...

Aunt Wang plans to take her dog to the square for a walk. Her old friends also have dogs, and today they even invited their grandson to help them walk their dogs so they can do some square dancing and get some exercise.

Along the way, there were all sorts of new things: many people, many houses, cars, trees... All of this was novel to 056, as it was its first time going out, and it appeared to be a little introverted.

Inwardly, he was frantically spamming the system with messages: 【Wow, this is so lively, everyone!】

They're still dancing! It's so interesting!

There are several dogs over there too. Do you think they're monsters too?

System: [Beep—The system is busy and needs to leave. If you need anything, please leave a message. If you are unsure, please call the emergency number!]

056 replied obediently, "Okay."

Seeing how obedient it was, the system still felt a little uneasy: [If you're unsure about anything, be sure to call!]

056: [Don't worry, everyone, I'll be careful!]

Aunt Wang led it to the group of elderly women, who were chatting animatedly about gossip. When Aunt Wang arrived, they all handed the leash to the grandson of one of the women and then went to dance in the center of the square.

Aunt Wang has brought her dog here many times and trusts people to walk her dog without worry.

"Good boy, go play with Huahua and Yuanyuan."

As the catchy and addictive music began, the elderly men and women enthusiastically moved their limbs and swayed to the music.

"You are my little apple... I can never love you enough..."

056 sang two lines along with the voice.

"What are you doing, Qiqi?"

"You look really good today."

"I ate a big chicken leg this afternoon! What did you guys eat?"

"There are cockroaches in the house, I have no appetite, I need to catch the cockroaches."

Next to 056 is a teddy bear, a corgi, and a husky. The husky is catching cockroaches, the corgi is eating a big chicken leg, and the teddy bear is praising its good looks.

"Thank you for the compliment. You are all very good-looking too!"

056 hit it off immediately with the dogs and got along very well with them. Not bored at all, the dogs chatted together, barking away. Their thoughts wandered, and the topics were incredibly varied. One second they were talking about what they ate before arriving, and the next they were discussing their missing toys at home…

The young man walking the dogs was on his phone, making a call while being dragged along by them with a look of utter despair.
