“Let me tell you, this Marid…”
Song Yang began to talk about trivial matters in Marid, mostly unimportant daily life. Jiang Ran listened while searching for useful information from the stories.
After learning about Marid's daily routine, Jiang Ran also noticed some strange things. First of all, no matter what the weather was like outside, even if it was windy or rainy, he still insisted on walking his dog every day. It was just that the time he walked his dog varied depending on the weather.
According to Song Yang, the most amazing thing was that when there was a hailstorm in Tianguang Town, this guy was still walking his dog outside with an umbrella. He was fine, but the dog suffered!
And that year, during a heavy snowfall, when the temperature was tens of degrees below zero, this guy put on a cotton coat, took his dog out, and almost froze the dog to death. After that, the residents of Tianguang Town would tell everyone they met that Marid was a real dog!
Even if Song Yang may have exaggerated a bit, the fact that Marid needs to walk his dog every day is certain. What is the point of him doing this?
Did Marid himself know about the reboot?
Yamazaki chimed in, "Doesn't he ever get sick? Has he really been walking the dog every single day?"
"Sick?" Song Yang was slightly taken aback. "What does 'sick' mean?"
Shan Shang was speechless for a moment; he hadn't expected to be asked such a question.
"I just feel unwell, weak all over, coughing, runny nose, and the like."
"Although I don't know what you're talking about," Song Yang said, clasping his hands together in a prayerful gesture, "we will be healthy and without any problems under God's protection."
That makes sense. Essentially, these creatures are bizarre beings, so it's not hard to understand why they don't get sick.
"As for whether he really walks the dog every day... I think it's true. After all, this guy has developed a routine for walking the dog. If there's ever a day when he doesn't, it would probably become big news that would shake the whole town. There's no reason for me not to know that!"
Then there's the fact that Marid never eats any meat. According to him, he likes animals, so he doesn't eat meat. But judging from his usual behavior, he only likes dogs. It's unlikely that he would like dogs to the point of not eating pork, beef, or mutton.
Finally, there's the fact that whenever Marid sees someone with a dog, he immediately goes up to ask if they're selling it. Jiang Ran can relate to this, but strangely enough, over the years, he hasn't been able to close a single deal.
Even Song Yang said he had no idea how Marid got his hands on those dogs.
"And don't just focus your attention on Marid, I'm telling you, there's also..."
Song Yang started talking about other people in the town again, which showed that he was really gossipy. He could remember all sorts of trivial things, and he even went so far as to peek at the color of people's underwear hanging out to dry.
"Alright, I won't say any more. The boss is waiting for my help!" Song Yang said with a soft laugh as he took his leave. "I'm always at the tavern. You can come find me anytime except when you're sleeping!"
According to intelligence, Marid wouldn't be home before 7:00 if the weather was still nice. At the current time, Marid is probably showing off his big dogs on some street, and no one should be home.
"Perhaps we should go to Marid's house and see if there's anything noteworthy inside. As long as we don't take anything, it doesn't count as theft!"
Even if we find nothing, we can at least confirm the terrain in advance for tonight's rescue operation!
With nothing to do at the tavern, the group decided to leave on a whim and arrived at Marid's backyard half an hour later.
Why do we feel like thieves?
"We seem to be thieves..."
"Bullshit! As long as you don't steal anything, you can't be considered a thief!"
The door to the Marid house was naturally closed, and any one of the five men was qualified to force their way in. They could break down the door, or even the house itself, without any problem. However, that wouldn't be considered a "sneak operation."
“I’ll go in and take a look.” Aisha pulled a card from her pocket. “I’ll hypnotize myself first so I can use [Miracle].
"Big sister, you're not going to turn around and attack us after you're hypnotized, are you?"
Those on the mountain retreated slightly out of fear.
"Hehe, it wouldn't have been before, but now it's uncertain."
Aisha unfolded the card in her hand, which was covered with some dizzying symbols. Jiang Ran suspected that [Shackles] had infused it with a trace of its divine power, otherwise it would not be easy for just some symbols to achieve a hypnotic effect so quickly.
A few seconds later, Aisha's gaze became somewhat hazy. She looked up at Yamashita, who frowned, stepped back behind the group, and shielded Jiang Ran in front of him.
"Idiot! I only partially hypnotized myself, I didn't completely lose my mind!"
After uttering a curse, Aisha turned to look at Marid's house.
This is a miracle from [Ideal Home]!
“I have been killed by Jiang Ran, so I should be a ghost now.”
Aisha's body becomes ethereal; the ghost can pass through walls. Since it is not a physical entity, it cannot come into contact with anything, making it the best choice for investigating information without leaving a trace.
Jiang Ran also realized that Aisha's [Miracle] was more powerful than her previous talent. Most importantly, she could now turn it on and off at will, so it wouldn't be so easy for her to be used against her.
Simply put, it has changed from a passive skill to an active skill.
She passed through the wall of Marid's house and entered the room. The items in the room were normal, just like in an ordinary person's home. If there was anything different, it was that it was a little too tidy.
From the living room to the kitchen, and even the bathroom, Aisha still couldn't find anything amiss.
"There are two possibilities. One is that Marid does have a problem, but that doesn't mean there's a problem with the things in his house. Perhaps he carries the problematic things with him and doesn't keep them at home. Or perhaps it's just that he himself has a problem, and everything else is fine."
"Secondly, Marid himself is not problematic. Rusger's transformation into a dog is a result of the rules. Marid is unaware that he has suddenly acquired a dog. In his memory, he is entitled to these dogs."
Aisha floated up to the second floor and checked both bedrooms, but found nothing wrong. Just when she thought she would leave empty-handed and wanted to check the storage room one last time, she was blocked by an invisible force!
"This storage room is haunted!"
Aisha couldn't enter directly in her spirit form, so she simply deactivated the effect of "Ideal Home," took out another card from her pocket to clear her mind, and then opened the door with her physical body!
