Chapter 52 Bad Idea



The chestnut-haired boy, one of the four people including Qi Shao that Xie Sen met in the forest.

He laughed after hearing what Xie Sen said and glanced at Rui Luo: "It was Rui Luo who recommended me to come to this store to give Leomon a bath. This is my friend's contracted beast, and it really doesn't like taking a bath. My friend had something urgent and asked me to help him. I didn't expect to meet you."

Xie Sen thought, no wonder, Jinpai had announced that he would not do business with Ruiluo, and he appeared here just to accompany him.

Seeing the chestnut-haired boy smiling brightly, Xie Sen raised his eyebrows. Was he too nervous, or was it just a coincidence?

"Rohat, what are you talking about?" Raylo frowned impatiently. "Leomon is about to tear this place down. Why don't you let them help it take a bath?"

The chestnut-haired boy, Rohart, seemed to have gotten used to Rui Luo's attitude and didn't care much. He looked at Xie Sen and said quickly, "By the way, can you help me take a look? I wonder if it's because the owner is not here that it is more resistant to taking a bath than before."

Xie Sen looked at the big lion that was running and roaring like a madman, followed its movement path, walked to the path it must pass, and then took two steps back to make sure he would not be hit, but still be able to touch it with his hand.

After a while, the big lion ran past him. He reached out and touched the big lion's hind leg in time. The big lion continued to run forward, paused for a moment, and then continued running.

Xie Sen frowned, and A Qiang said, "It seems that you really hate taking a bath."

He had seen all kinds of difficult contracted beasts become docile after being touched by Xie Sen, but this was the first time he had seen one like Leomon who refused to obey.

After the big lion passed them, it did not continue running in circles, but turned to their right and went straight to hit the gate - the one they had entered from not long ago.

"Wow, Xiao Ha, calm down!" Rohat was startled and hurried to the big lion to persuade him, "If you don't want to wash, forget it, just don't bump into it."

Xie Sen quickly walked to the tail of the big lion, carefully keeping a distance, reached out and touched its hind legs, watched the big lion's reaction vigilantly, and was ready to retreat at any time.

The big lion's banging on the door slowed down and gradually stopped. It seemed a little confused. It turned its head and looked back, sweeping Xie Sen's wrist with its tail.

Seeing it calm down, Xie Sen breathed a sigh of relief, touched its hind legs, then took a step forward and used a little force to pull its legs back.

The big lion quickly realized his intention and retreated back along with his strength until it reached the bathing pool. Although it was bigger than many giant lions, it was not small either. As soon as it fell into the water, water splashed everywhere, and Xie Sen was soaked to the skin.

He didn't really care about it. This kind of thing was very common in the bathing area. He would just go to the drying room and it would dry in a while.

"You are amazing." Rohart exclaimed.

As Aqiang took out the sterilization pills, he smiled and said, "Asen is the best maintenance technician in our department."

Xie Sen placed his hand on Leomon to comfort him, and shook his head, "That's too much. I just have a stronger affinity. I still have a lot of professional knowledge to learn."

Leomon leaned his big head against the shore, looking at Xie Sen with his clear and beautiful eyes, occasionally moving his neck to rub his palm.

Xie Sen was cleaning it with a soft brush with a long handle, while A Qiang was also cleaning it with one in his hand on the other side.

"Rui Luo, let's sit over there for a while. Even though it's so well behaved, it'll take at least twenty minutes to wash it," said Rohart.

Rui Luo's gaze stayed on Xie Sen for a few seconds, then he nodded and went to sit in the Beast Master's rest area, glancing at Xie Sen from time to time.

Rohart raised his eyebrows. "Why, are you interested in him? Didn't I tell you that he and Maine seemed to be a couple? They behaved very intimately in the forest before."

"Oh, you short-sighted pseudo-male." Rui Luo said sarcastically.

Rohart looked at him strangely. "Weren't you very interested in him before? You kept asking me about him in the forest."

"I just felt that what you said was unreliable, so I asked a few more questions." Rui Luo said coldly.

"That's right," Rohart raised his hand to support his chin, "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it. I'm really not exaggerating. Yan Qi tried to form a contract, but he failed once and then succeeded again. The only difference between the two times was that Xie Sen was next to the contracted beast the first time he succeeded. Tell me, is it reasonable for me to doubt that he can make a beast master who has not made the contracted beast surrender form a contract?"

Rui Luo curled his lips slightly and said softly, "It is indeed reasonable."

Rohart lowered his voice and said, "Mr. Qiao, don't tell anyone. If you weren't curious about what happened to me in the forest, I wouldn't tell anyone. Don't tell anyone."

"Well, I won't tell anyone." Rui Luo stared at Xie Sen and responded casually.

Rohart glanced at him and said, "I say, you insisted on coming to the Gold Medal with me today. Actually, it was not to accompany me, but to take the opportunity to see the giant lion beast, right? Seeing that you look absent-minded, do you want to go and see it now?"

Rui Luo thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll go take a look and contact you when I'm leaving."

Rohat nodded: "Okay."

Rui Luo took a deep look at Xie Sen who was bathing Leomon, left the bathing area and went directly to the feeding area.

After passing through the third area, he was stopped. The security guard at the gate said, "Sorry, the area behind is not open to the public."

Rui Luo looked at him sarcastically: "Not going outside? Do you know who I am? Can't I go in and take a look?"

"Master Kes," the security guard knew his identity. He had been on the hot list for several days some time ago. However, there was an order from above that no unauthorized persons were allowed to enter. His voice was not weak at all. "I'm sorry, this is a decision made by the upper management of our company. No one can enter without the boss's permission."

Rui Luo stared at him: "What if I insist on going in?"

The security guard frowned slightly, and had a particularly bad impression of this person who affected his work. However, due to his status, he had to restrain his temper: "I'm sorry, if you want to force your way in, we can only notify our colleagues to ask you to leave."

Rui Luo's face was extremely ugly. Seeing that they were not willing to listen, he said coldly, "I wonder how long you can keep the gold medal?"

The security guard watched him leave and complained to his colleagues: "Does he think he can do whatever he wants just because his family is powerful? He wants to touch the gold medal, but he doesn't even look at who our boss is."

"He's just a fool who's been spoiled to the point of doing whatever he wants." The colleague responded with disdain.

While Xie Sen was bathing Leomon, he had been paying attention to Rui Luo's actions. As soon as he saw him go out, he immediately contacted Sun Mao and asked him to pay attention to areas four and five.

Not long after, Rui Luo came back. Xie Sen noticed that he looked very unhappy and guessed that he might want to go see the giant lion beast, but was stopped.

Twenty minutes later, when the lion beast finished its bath, Xie Sen led it to the left side of the pool. He and A Qiang used a big hair dryer to blow its body and mane. Five minutes later, the lion beast became a clean big lion with flowing mane.

"So handsome!" Rohat rubbed Leomon's neck and praised him, then looked at Xie Sen, "This is the first time I see it being so well behaved while taking a bath. Thank you so much."

Xie Sen said politely: "You're welcome. This is our job."

Rohart took Leomon away, and Ruiluo looked at Xie Sen and followed him out.

After Xie Sen finished bathing Leomon, he didn't receive any work for a while, so he went back to the lounge to rest. He asked Sun Mao why Rui Luo had left halfway, and the answer he got was the same as he guessed.

Near noon, he followed the feeder from Area 4 and Area 5, and the two of them carried food buckets to Area 4 and Area 5 to see the high-level contracted beasts.

The feeder said cheerfully as they walked: "They are so smart. When I received the job, I was worried that I might get hurt by mistake. I didn't expect it to be easier than feeding a D-level contracted beast. I even think they can understand what I say."

Xie Sen said: "High-level contracted beasts have very high IQs. This situation should be very common, right?"

"No," the keeper shook his head, "It's different. They are the smartest I've ever seen. In the past, the high-level contracted beasts could understand me just by gestures, but now in District 4 and 5, I don't have to do anything, just speak and they will understand."

He smiled sheepishly: "Sometimes when I talk with my colleagues, they all look at us. I even think they are listening to our gossip!"

Xie Sen's mouth curled up slightly, thinking that it was not just a thought, it was definitely a fact.

The keeper swiped open the door to the merger of areas 4 and 5, and the two went in together. The keeper whispered, "Look, they are of different species, growling together, just like they are chatting."

Xie Sen asked: "Can't the contracted beasts communicate with each other?"

"Not really. Isn't there a saying that there can't be two tigers in one mountain? The stronger the creature, the more territorial it is. Any one of them is considered a top creature in the forest. They stay together in harmony like this. It always feels like watching a children's movie."

Xie Sen couldn't help laughing out loud. He had seen children's films, which were similar to cartoons. Many of the protagonists were cute versions of contracted beasts. The content was about them going on adventures or living together, and children could get to know the contracted beasts through them.

A tiger roar was heard, and soon, the huge tiger beast ran in front of Xie Sen. The keeper was startled: "What...what happened?"

When he was feeding them yesterday, these contracted beasts lay there motionless, and he was secretly thankful. Why are they suddenly so excited today?

Xie Sen held the giant tiger beast's raised front paw and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's saying hello to me. We are very familiar with each other in the forest."

The feeder looked at the big guy so close, dragged the animal food towards the stone trough, and kept his distance: "It's really too stressful to stand in front of this guy. Your plant-type beast masters are really amazing, and they are very popular with the contracted beasts."

Xie Sen smiled and said, "It's just that I have a higher affinity."

He listened carefully to the giant tiger beast telling him about the accommodation. "It's nice here, we all like it, but other than the dining area, there are no other creatures besides us. It's a bit boring."

Xie Sen was curious: "So how did you live in the past?"

The giant tiger beast tilted its head and said, "Rest during hunting... Hmm, that's strange. I didn't feel bored before. My mind was always empty when I rested, but now I'm always thinking about all sorts of things. Last night, every beast had finished talking about their experiences, and the topic of conversation has turned to the stories of our ancestors."

Xie Sen's mouth twitched: "Don't you guys need to rest?"

"It's time to take a break," said the giant tiger beast. The contracted beast lying on the ground called out to them a few times, "They called us over."

Xie Sen and the giant tiger beast went to the group of contracted beasts. The eight contracted beasts formed a circle tacitly and lay with their heads facing inside. Xie Sen sat in the middle of them.

Xie Sen thought, fortunately, they were all intelligent contracted beasts that he knew. If they were wild beasts, he would definitely faint from fear.

He touched their paws and asked about the situation one by one. Each one gave the same response: they all felt bored, and they all said that this had never happened before.

Xie Sen thought about it and felt that it had something to do with the improvement of their IQ. They could understand many things that they could not understand before, and their minds had become more open. Most of the memories in their brains were about the daily repetition of their lives. What's more, now they didn't even have to hunt, so it was normal for them to feel bored.

He asked, “Is there anything you want to do?”

The giant tiger beast said: "I want to listen to people chatting. Human life is so colorful."

The black giant leopard beast said, "I also want to watch the news. When the keepers chat, they always start with 'Have you watched the news?' The news must be very interesting."

Spotted Giant Leopard Beast: "I want to see what my brother wants to see, too."

Two giant elephant beasts: "I want to, too."

Giant Wolf Beast: "There is also TV. They are even discussing the plot of the TV show."

The giant lion beast lay on the side and swung its tail: "I want both."

Xie Sen looked around, and his sight finally stopped at the left wall not far from their nest. He suggested: "How about getting a projector and projecting the news or TV onto the wall for you to watch?"

The giant rhinoceros, who had been silent the whole time, spoke in a steady tone: "This will cost a lot of money, right? Yesterday the feeders said, 'What is the boss thinking? So many high-level contracted beasts are left here and not sold, and food is delivered every day. Isn't this a waste of money?'"

Its big black eyes blinked, appearing exceptionally intelligent. "Although we only need to eat one meal a day, we have a large appetite, so food costs a lot of money every day, as well as labor costs and other equipment costs. We thought too simply before, thinking that we could just pay back double the food after we recovered."

It paused and said, "But your human society is different from the forest. Living here not only consumes food, but also the projector. It will cost a lot of money, right?"

Xie Sen looked at it in surprise. He didn't expect that a beast could think so much.

The giant tiger beast said: "Yes, the flying rhino beast is more thoughtful."

The giant wolf beast said: "What should we do? Should we find a way to make money to pay it back?"

Xie Sen laughed: "Do you want to form a pact with others?"

The giant rhinoceros said: "The chances of meeting a beast master who is pleasing to me and who can make me submit are too small."

The other few also nodded in agreement. Xie Sen smiled and touched their paws: "Don't think too much. You paid double the food. The extra money can barely cover the rest of your expenses."

Each of them needs to eat at least thirty to forty kilograms of meat, which together is almost three hundred kilograms. Large meat costs five star coins per kilogram. The daily food cost is fifteen hundred yuan, and the rest of the daily expenses are about fifteen hundred yuan.

"Asen!!!" As he was speaking, the feeder's voice suddenly came. He shouted so loudly that the word "Sen" was almost breaking, and his tone was trembling, as if he was extremely frightened.

Xie Sen patted the giant tiger beast’s paw. The giant tiger beast stood up and stepped back a few steps to make way. There was a hole in the circle of the siege. Xie Sen walked out of this hole and waved to the feeder not far from the trough: "What's wrong?"

The feeder heaved a sigh of relief when he saw him, and stood firm with the food bucket: "I was so scared, I thought you were surrounded and eaten by them."

He distributed the animal food to the trough, and when he turned around, he could no longer see Xie Sen. Instead, he saw eight contracted beasts gathered together, with their heads lowered towards the middle, as if they were eating.

His first thought was that Xie Sen had been eaten by them, and he was terrified.

"Nonsense, why would we eat Asen? He is our friend!" The giant tiger beast roared at the feeder.

"I'm a vegetarian." The two giant elephants said at the same time.

"What nonsense are you talking about? We don't eat humans." The other contracted beasts yelled at the feeder, expressing their dissatisfaction with his nonsense.

The feeder was just frightened by his own wild thoughts, and now he was frightened by their uniform roars. His legs became as weak as noodles, and he could hardly stand up straight while holding the food bucket.

"What...what's wrong?" The feeder was puzzled. "Are you hungry? The food is ready. Don't be mean to me!"

Xie Sen smiled and shook his head, then walked over and patted him on the shoulder: "It's okay, it's probably because you're standing here blocking their eating space."

"Oh oh." The feeder hurriedly twisted the wooden barrel and walked out, "These are not enough, there is more."

"I'll help you." Xie Sen said.

The two of them carried five buckets of food in total, and after dividing them, they were both exhausted and gasping for breath.

"Fortunately, except for the giant elephants, they all only eat one meal. It is not easy to get food for the giant elephants. We have to go to the forest to find grass." The feeder said with emotion.

Xie Sen and the feeder watched the contracted beasts finish their food and only left after making sure that they had a normal appetite.

After leaving Area 4 and 5, Xie Sen contacted Long Teng directly and told him about installing the projector. Then he said, "How much do they cost every day? I'll transfer the money to you!"

The order to place the contracted beasts was given personally by Long Teng's father. Manager Sun and his team certainly wouldn't ask the boss for money, but the expenses were real.

"No need," Long Teng said, "Father is not short of money anyway. I will have someone install the projector now. I will go and play with them in the afternoon."

Xie Sen looked at the hung up call and shrugged helplessly. Long Teng's personality was really impetuous.

He was just about to turn off the call when it rang. He looked at the contact with a smile on his face. He answered the call and heard Maine say, "Did you take a break at noon?"

Xie Sen glanced at the time: "Well, I just got off work at noon, how about you?"

"We've settled the matter. I'm having lunch with the other party," Maine said, pausing. "I missed you, so I called you under the pretext of going to the bathroom."

Xie Sen's ears turned red, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up: "Didn't we just see each other this morning? You weren't so clingy before."

"You are mine now," Maine whispered, "You were not mine before, so I have no right."

Xie Sen blinked his eyes. He didn't expect Maine to have such an idea. "We were friends before."

"I don't want you as a friend. You said you would have many friends, but I don't want many." Maine said calmly.

Xie Sen thought, it was still the same idea as before, now that their relationship was confirmed, there was no need to worry about this kind of thing.

He smiled and said, "Don't you still have to have lunch with your partners? Don't delay too long. I'm going to have lunch too. I'm also going to take a nap and go home directly after get off work."

"Okay." Maine said without hanging up the call. Xie Sen had no choice but to turn off the call first.

The speed of the gold medal was very fast. After Xie Sen finished his lunch and woke up from his nap, he heard that the projector had been installed.

He took advantage of his free time to go to Areas 4 and 5. As soon as he entered, he heard a lot of noise inside.

The giant tiger beast and Longteng were fighting nearby, while the other seven were lying on the ground, watching the news on the projection, turning their big heads from time to time to discuss with their companions.

He couldn't help laughing. It was quite strange to see a group of giant beasts watching TV.

He looked at the man and the beast fighting. The giant tiger beast was large and agile, and its strength was terrifying. Every time it pounced on Long Teng with its claws, Long Teng dodged and missed. He felt the ground shake.

He was terrified as he watched, fearing that Long Teng would be hit by the photo accidentally.

Fortunately, they didn't fight for long before the giant tiger beast stopped. Long Teng laughed and rubbed its neck: "Great!"

Xie Sen walked over, rubbed the giant tiger beast's front legs, and looked at Long Teng: "Don't fight anymore in the future. What if you get hurt?"

Long Teng smiled brightly: "It's okay, I just want to feel the ability of the A-level contracted beast."

The giant tiger beast said: "It's okay to have a little fight like this. I'm just playing with him. I will stop if he can't avoid it."

Xie Sen praised: "That's great."

After making sure that the contracted beasts were all satisfied, Xie Sen did not stay for too long. He left after receiving his work assignment.

The afternoon passed quickly. When Xie Sen was about to get off work, he took on a more difficult job and left work 20 minutes later than usual. When he got off work, he sent a message to Maine, saying that he would leave work later to avoid Maine worrying.

After he finished his work, he went straight to the parking lot and was walking towards his shuttle when a man suddenly walked out from the side of the shuttle he was passing and stopped him.

"Rui Luo?" Xie Sen frowned. "What's the matter?"

Rui Luo stared at him and got straight to the point: "Be my partner!"

Xie Sen looked at him like a fool, totally unable to understand his train of thought. He pursed his lips and said, "Impossible."

Ruiluo didn't expect to be rejected so rudely. He pointed at Xie Sen and said disdainfully, "You are just an adopted son. You have no power, no influence, and no money. If it weren't for the fact that you are a plant beast master, I wouldn't even look at you. Don't play hard to get with me. Otherwise, when you regret it, I might change my mind."

Xie Sen rolled his eyes at him and said, "Change your mind now! Besides, I really don't want to see you at all."

"You!" Rui Luo sneered, "Is it for that useless illegitimate son of Maine? Think about it carefully. You will have nothing if you follow him. I will inherit the Cos family in the future."

"How dare you say that others are useless?" Xie Sen looked at him in disbelief. "Don't you feel embarrassed when you say that?"

Rui Luo's face darkened, he took a few steps forward and waved his hand towards Xie Sen: "Who do you think you are? It's not your turn to mock me."

Xie Sen took two steps back and quickly summoned watermelon vines to tie him up: "Are you crazy?"

Rui Luo's movements stopped because he was tied up. The only thing he could move freely was his raised right hand. His face was gloomy, and there was a strange light in his eyes: "It's really a plant-type beast master."

As he spoke, he took out his sharp knife from his backpack with his right hand and tried to cut the watermelon vine. He failed to cut it off instantly and showed a look of surprise. Then he pulled hard and the vine broke and fell to the ground.

Xie Sen suddenly felt pain in his flesh, his watermelon vine!!!

He called back the watermelon vine, and the ten-meter vine became two, about 30% and 70% of it.

Rui Luo walked towards Xie Sen again and sneered, "If you don't accept my toast, you will be punished." He stretched out his hand to grab Xie Sen's collar. Xie Sen directed the three-meter-long vines to tie up his hands. Rui Luo was on guard this time. The moment he saw the vines, he used his backhand to cut them off with a knife.

He realized that even if these vines were broken, they would still be useful to Xie Sen, so he cut them very short and continued to reach out to Xie Sen.

Xie Sen stepped back, leaning his body back, allowing another three-meter vine to bind his right hand, while the seven-meter vine bound his feet.

When he leaned back, his slender neck was exposed. Rui Luo glanced over and saw the red mark on it. He said disdainfully, "It turns out that Maine has touched it." The corners of his mouth curled up. "Doesn't he always dislike people getting close to him? It seems that he cares about you a lot. I suddenly have a better idea."

Xie Sen knew from his gloomy expression that he had no good intentions. While he was tied up, he kicked him in the waist and said, "You big-headed ghost, get out of here."

Rui Luo fell backwards and rolled on the ground. He switched the knife to his left hand and, with a vicious look on his face, he cut the vines on his right hand and then cut those on his legs.

Xie Sen saw that something was wrong and he didn't want to waste any more energy on him. While his legs were tied, he ran towards the shuttle. As he ran, he thought that he must find a way to get rid of Rui Luo, at least he couldn't let him stay in Star City. This guy was like a □□.

Ruiluo's A-level beast master foundation is indeed very good. He runs very fast. When Xie Sen was about to reach the shuttle, he caught up with Xie Sen and reached out to grab Xie Sen's shoulder.

Just as Xie Sen was about to exchange the vines and then summon, Maine suddenly walked out from the side of his shuttle, stretched out his hand to hold him in his arms, raised his foot sideways, and kicked Rui Luo with fierce force.

Rui Luo stopped in time and leaned back to avoid his attack.

Maine frowned and pulled Xie Sen behind him: "Wait for me here." After he said that, he walked towards Rui Luo with a gloomy face.

Rui Luo's brows were filled with anger. He took the knife in his right hand and swung it at Maine: "Just in time, go to hell!"
