The Informal Tomb Raiding Diary: She is the occupant of the tomb! Chapter 234 - 235: Pet Nemesis

This is Chapter 235

In fact, when it cos to superpowers, it’s more like the luck of unlocking a talent, but being a lucky person is not easy. You gain so, you lose so.

Chen Qinghan was talking about Bao Ziqing. I never thought that lively and adorable little girl was actually an orphan.

When she was five, she went on a trip with her parents, grandparents, and the whole family. They encountered a heavy rain halfway, and the car skidded off the road, crashing beyond the guardrail. The hillside outside the mountain road was steep, and the car tumbled down and rolled several tis before stopping.

That accident took away two-thirds of her family, leaving her the only survivor, cared for by her grandmother. Unexpectedly, the following year, her grandmother was diagnosed with terminal cancer and passed away three months later.

Little Baozi was sent to an orphanage because none of her other relatives dared to adopt her.

This life disaster unlocked a new skill for her. The teachers at the orphanage discovered she learned languages exceptionally fast.

Dialects, foreign languages, she always learned quickly. Initially, the teachers and classmates thought she was smart, and the orphanage staff were quite pleased.

But later, she often spoke in languages no one could understand, which frightened the teachers and classmates.

Even a hospital examination couldn’t find anything wrong. Couples who ca to the welfare center to adopt children, upon hearing about her story, all refrained from adopting her.

Not to ntion those couples, just hearing Chen Qinghan’s account made it feel like a horror story.

Perhaps so would think Baozi was innocent, and her misfortunes were not her fault, only making her seem more pitiable.

But the talents she unlocked later, those incomprehensible languages, cast a mysterious aura over everything that happened to her.

So whenever people ntioned her, they said she experienced incredible, even extrely strange things.

Fortunately, a year later, Qinghan’s direct superior adopted her. In their profession, they have heard and seen many strange things, so there were fewer taboos and doubts.

Baozi’s adoptive father arranged for her to undergo hypnosis therapy to block the mories of that childhood incident. Now, she only rembers that her family was in a car accident, but she cannot recall the specific scenes.

She also can’t rember the rejection and suspicion she faced in the welfare center. If not for this, I think her personality wouldn’t be so lively and cheerful.

Afterward, her talent was well nurtured and trained. She could interpret those lost scripts. Although the content she deciphered couldn’t be made public, she was still very happy for the opportunity to engage with these legendary texts.

"Little Baozi told at lunchti today that next ti I go exploring, I must take her." Now that I chat with them, I have beco much more open, because with the internet at hand, I can ask anything on Baidu anyti, so Baozi and Ling Ke’er text every day.

Baozi wants to hear adventure stories, and Ling Ke’er is inquiring about Chen Qinghan’s whereabouts.

"Taking her is not as good as taking a water balloon." Chen Qinghan leaned back on the wicker chair, scribbling notes.

"Listen, the words of a lone wolf." I shook my head and ran back to the computer to continue following my TV series.

The heavy rain lasted all night. Chen Qinghan decided to stay over. The advantage of not needing sleep is that when friends co to stay over, you don’t have to worry about where they will sleep.

I hadn’t even touched the bed in the bedroom. When not watching the computer, I usually curled up on the sofa playing on my phone.

The next day, Chen Qinghan got up early and went to school. In the afternoon, he ca to pick up. I accompanied him to the eye hospital for an examination, but the doctor couldn’t find any problem with his eyes.

He said that actually, the double vision situation had sowhat improved. Since they can’t find a cause, let’s just observe for now. He even ntioned saving the money for glasses.

To prove I’m not soone who breaks promises, I treated him to the most expensive buffet. He ate while I posted on social dia.

But Bi Shi was really vicious. Just after I posted photos of the lavish buffet, she followed up with photos of an exquisite national dinner.

Seeing grind my teeth at those photos, Chen Qinghan patted my head and said, "Next ti, I’ll take you there."

"No, let her have her expensive al, after all, it’s her wallet that suffers." I said, grabbing a crab and chomping it down in two bites, without leaving a crab leg behind. Waste not, want not, wasting is a great cri.

Leisurely days pass particularly quickly, and in the blink of an eye, a week had gone by.

I had thought of getting a pet, and even wandered around the local pet store near the community, but as soon as the cats, dogs, and rats saw enter, they all shrank into the corners of their cages, and wouldn’t co out no matter how I called.

These sheltered animals are just soft and timid, unlike the wild ones.

I wanted a pet to show so love, not to cause a massacre and scare them to death, so under the curious gaze of the shop owner, I backed out.

Undeterred, I then went to hang around the haunts where stray cats are, but they were even worse. When they saw , they puffed up their fur. They had been clumped together eating cat food left by kind souls.

As soon as I appeared, wow, they yowled, overturned their food bowls, so ran up the roofs, so jumped over walls, so dived under cars. One was so hasty that it ramd its head on a car door and knocked itself out, setting off the car alarm.

People say cats can see things humans can’t. What exactly did they see on ? An aura of dominance?

Carrying the little fish I’d bought to bribe them, I nibbled on it as I walked ho.

These stories I can’t share on social dia, so I sent them directly to Chen Qinghan, complaining to him. His response was succinct, just one sentence: You could get a water balloon.

What’s a water balloon? I suspect it’s a ’human’ from another civilization. Can that be kept as a pet? Professor Chen, your thoughts are quite dangerous, tut!

Then I rembered his conversation with Otuna. Could it be that he treats so well because he’s raising as a pet from another species?

In the anti, Bi Shi dragged into a group nad ’Blood Clan Retirent Group’. At first glance, I thought it was a fan group of so vampire-thed show. But once I went in, hey... all familiar faces.

The first thing I said upon entering the group was a friendly, "Hey everyone, still alive?"

Seeing these folks, I felt that the group na Bi Shi chose was problematic. What’s with ’retirent’? Retired people can receive pensions; that’s what retirent ans. But looking at our group, everyone is ageless old monsters. I imdiately suggested to Bi Shi to change the group na to ’Undead Blood Clan Group’.

Even in our clan, very few have such ageless lifespans. Bi Shi managed to round them all up in just one week; that efficiency is quite high.

"Long ti no see, An Xi-sama!" A figure with the online na Dark Lolita Sachima jumped out and sent a scissors-handed, ani-cute-girl emoji.

"Sachima, you’d never have imagined that after a thousand years, your na would beco a snack, right?" I sent a mischievous ssage.
