73: Chapter 73: The Cashier’s Commission 73: Chapter 73: The Cashier’s Commission Having left Wilson’s house, Wen Wen was very satisfied since the final paynt was substantial enough to cover the financial deficit caused by his car purchase.
During the casual conversation with Wilson, Wen Wen learned that in his mory, he had been kidnapped by a terrorist organization, and Wen Wen alone had heroically rescued him.
Afterward, he was detained by the governnt for an isolation investigation and had just been released today.
The mory modification technology of the Hunters Association was truly perverted.
If it hadn’t been limited to use on ordinary people, with no effect on slightly more inspired individuals, Wen Wen might have even considered the Hunters Association as his pri hypothetical enemy.
In fact, there is no large-scale terrorist organization actually existing within the Federation.
Any illegal organization comprised entirely of humans that becos significantly harmful can be resolved by sending a few superpower users there.
The several very notorious terrorist organizations that currently exist are actually scapegoats concocted by the Hunters Association and the officials.
Whenever sothing spirals out of control, these terrorist organizations would step forward and claim responsibility for the incident.
Over the years, this has alleviated a lot of pressure on the Hunters Association.
These were things Wen Wen only ca to know after he beca a freelance hunter.
After getting the money, Wen Wen still didn’t go ho but went to the pet store to buy a litter box for Tao Qingqing.
He liked to accumulate tasks and then complete them all in one outing; going out multiple tis was just a waste of ti for him.
This ti, he was also buying a litter box for Hu Youling; after all, pets should not be treated unequally.
…Okay, mostly because Hu Youling had been using a glued-together dog food bowl lately, and he could no longer stand it, so Wen Wen wanted to buy her a new food bowl.
Additionally, he needed to buy a small glass aquarium for the Three-Eyed Illusion Snake, which had been kept in a wash basin these days, looking sowhat unsightly.
Speaking of which, the Three-Eyed Illusion Snake was actually quite easy to raise.
As long as he rembered to occasionally feed it so food and water, there would be no problems.
Unlike so pets that require knowing what they can and cannot eat, how they should be fed, and what environnt is best for them, and also needing regular vet visits.
This little snake was different; it was tough.
Even though Wen Wen had pulled out its two teeth, it still enjoyed eating anything—raw at, leftover scraps, even peanut shells and rice grains, as well as the skin scraped off Wen Wen’s feet during foot washes—this little snake could eat them all very sweetly.
Moreover, after feeding it for a few days, the little snake actually started to show so affection towards Wen Wen, occasionally even acting in a pleasing manner.
That’s why Wen Wen was planning to change its environnt and consider keeping it as a pet.
With such a cooperative little pet, even if he thought about taking it to the riverside for barbecue under so pretext like heat stroke or fighting, he couldn’t bear it.
The female cashier at the pet store was sitting at the cash register, propping her head with her arms, her face full of gloom, not looking very happy.
Suddenly, the bell above the door rang, and she quickly straightened up.
There was a custor.
When she saw it was Wen Wen, her expression imdiately changed.
She still rembered the terrifying mory he had left her with, but despite her fear, she tried her best to maintain a smile.
Such is the job.
Having been to the store before, Wen Wen naturally knew what was and wasn’t there.
He simply walked around, quickly picking up the things he wanted.
A differently colored cat food bowl and a glass fish tank.
The cashier swiftly processed his paynt, hoping to get this plague-god out of her store quickly, but suddenly she felt that this man seed different from last ti.
So handso…
Looking at Wen Wen’s face, she actually began to blush, standing there dumbfounded, not knowing what she was thinking.
Scratching his head, Wen Wen guessed this must be the effect of Hu Youling’s Charm ability, which seed to enhance his attractiveness to the opposite sex even without activating it.
“This ability seems quite effective, hehehe.”
But since the effect is so powerful, why wasn’t I tempted by Hu Youling back then…
Could it be because I am a pervert?
It seems being a pervert does have its benefits.
I should be appropriately more perverted in the future.”
“Ahem, you need to ring up,” Wen Wen reminded the cashier.
“Oh, sorry, sorry, sir.
Did you get another cat?
What does it look like?”
She fired off a series of questions, just because Wen Wen looked a bit more handso today, and her attitude was quite different from before.
“A cat…
Yes, I got another one.
The new one is always in heat and keeps fighting with the old one.
It’s so annoying,” Wen Wen thought aloud.
“So, it’s a clingy little demon, huh?
I’m envious.
My cat is so aloof.
But you should be careful about them fighting with the locals.
Are you planning to use the fish tank for fish?
Be careful about the cat stealing them,” the cashier chatted up close.
Wen Wen grinned: “Not for fish, for snakes.”
The cashier shivered; she was quite afraid of cold-blooded creatures like snakes.
It seed she couldn’t beco close with this handso guy after all.
But even though he kept snakes, he was still so handso!
The entire checkout process, the cashier was in a lovesick state, giving Wen Wen sowhat of a headache.
He would be annoyed to death if every woman he t acted like this.
After all, not all won were eye-candy; so were quite the opposite…
As Wen Wen was about to leave, the cashier felt a bit disappointed; she wanted to chat more with Wen Wen, then an idea suddenly struck her.
“Mr.
Wen, last ti you ntioned if I encountered sothing strange, I could co to you for help, right?”
Wen Wen’s eyes lit up; had she encountered a supernatural event?
Leaving his business card had indeed been the right move.
“Exactly, I am a private detective, specializing in unusual cases.
I don’t take on ordinary ones,” he clarified.
The cashier hesitated before speaking to Wen Wen, “It’s like this, I have a friend who runs a kennel, and recently a strange dog showed up there.
This dog is so smart it’s almost scary, and it even has so strange habits.”
“This makes him very uneasy.
No one wants to take it, and he can’t bear to let the dog beco stray.
It has been distressing him for days.
I’m not sure if this is within your scope of resolution.”
Wen Wen’s mouth twitched slightly, wondering what kind of bizarre task this was.
Any normal detective would just walk away, finding it an insult to investigate a dog.
However, since Wen Wen’s main profession was no longer a detective, he didn’t outright refuse.
“You know, I am a detective, not a veterinarian…
If your dog is just ordinarily weird, I wouldn’t bother.
But if it’s really strange, I might consider taking on this case.”
“Really!” The cashier almost jumped for joy: “I’ll show you its photo, and you’ll see; this dog is really weird.”
She took out a photo and showed it to Wen Wen.
Upon seeing it, Wen Wen raised an eyebrow: “Are you sure you haven’t just pulled up a from the internet to show ?”
