Chapter 101

“I heard those victimized students had dirty lifestyles.

In the residual memories of the corpses, they all encountered a silver-haired beautiful girl who claimed to be from the Witch’s Hut.

She lured the victims with extremely low prices, followed them home, and then…”

Ke Ke made a throat-slitting gesture, scaring Su Yao into grabbing Su Ling’s wrist.

“Ha ha, sis, don’t be scared. It’s all just rumors on the forum. Probably some random person making things up.”

Ke Ke scratched her head and chuckled.

She pushed the forum thread to Su Ling.

Paranormal Gossip Forum.

The number one trending topic was naturally Luo Qianxue.

The suspected Zerg was ranked third.

Su Ling tapped into the topic, and photos of various mummified corpses instantly jumped at her face, nearly making her throw her phone away.

“Besides, the Student Council has started investigating too. Their reputation might not be great, but they do have professional competence.”

The Student Council President election was coming up soon.

With an incident like this happening now, it was definitely a golden opportunity to gain support.

Those department heads in the Student Council wouldn’t miss this chance.

“Did the Witch’s Hut people get involved too?”

Su Ling scrolled to a post posted by the Witch’s Hut’s official account, stating they would thoroughly investigate the matter.

But thinking about it, since the murderer was using the Witch’s Hut’s name, they naturally wouldn’t sit idly by.

What Su Ling couldn’t hold back her laughter at, though, was the surprisingly unified comments under the Witch’s Hut’s official post.

They were all:

“Hey? How about a lottery? I want Qianxia Jiang!”

Qianxia Jiang was the Witch’s Hut’s Oiran.

The Witch’s Hut held irregular lotteries, and the lucky winner would get a chance to date Qianxia Jiang.

As for the content of that date, well, those who knew, knew.

“But how are they sure it’s a Zerg?”

Su Ling muttered.

“Did you see those mummified corpses?

All their flesh and blood was gone, nothing but skin and bones.

Besides Zerg feeding, only the Vampire Race would do that.”

But the Vampire Race had assimilated into Witches tens of thousands of years ago, becoming one of the Witch’s sub-races.

Besides, the academy had a specialized Vampire Street that provided food and lodging for vampires.

There was no reason for them to do this.

So the Zerg were the most suspicious.

Feeding?

But Miao Miao…

Su Ling thought of Miao Miao’s cute appearance when she ate cake earlier and couldn’t help but have second thoughts.

If Miao Miao was confirmed to be a Zerg, why did she find watching Miao Miao eat so pleasing to the eye?

Could it be that there were differences even among Zerg?

But thinking of Miao Miao made Su Ling somewhat sad.

She missed Miao Miao a little.

She wondered what Miao Miao was doing right now.

—

“Hey, newbie, hurry up and move it. There’s another stack after this.”

Near-Earth Orbit of Witch Academy.

Wearing a hard hat, full of dust, Bai Miao raised her head, her eyes filled with confusion.

Who am I?

Where am I?

What am I supposed to be doing?

“Your Highness, let me do it.”

A weak voice came from beside her.

It was K423.

Both of them were covered in dust, looking completely dazed.

Finally, Bai Miao snapped out of it.

She remembered.

She was Bai Miao.

The Second Princess of the Zerg.

She came to Witch Academy for the Astral Grand Competition.

But now, she had indeed infiltrated the academy, but it seemed things were moving too fast?

She was currently at the starting station for the Astral Grand Competition, and right now, she was building a big bathhouse for the Witches!

“Darn it, we have names! We’re not ‘hey’!”

In front, Da Miao raised her small head, covered in dust, and raised her little pink fist in protest.

The foreman glared at her, and she instantly chickened out.

Bai Miao remembered everything.

That night, just as she sneaked into Witch Academy, she ran into Da Miao and her six companions looking for work.

Da Miao and the others were short two people, so they pulled her in, saying there was money to be made and a good chance to find a wife.

But she never expected this job was actually building a big bathhouse for the Witches.

And she, the dignified Second Princess of the Zerg, was here hauling bricks and mixing concrete?

Outrageous!

“Hold on! Tonight we’ll take you to have some fun.”

Qi Miao was no longer waving her broken feather fan.

Her little face was covered in dust, but her eyes were startlingly bright.

“Hehe, I heard the Witch’s Hut has an event recently. Perfect timing—we get paid tonight. How about we go relax?”

“I…”

Bai Miao wanted to refuse.

She was a proper girl. How could she go to a place like that?

“Don’t worry, we’ll treat you.”

Qi Miao winked slyly.

The other six little lolis raised their heads in unison, looking at Bai Miao with hopeful eyes.

There was simply no way to refuse.

Plus, Bai Miao was exhausted and dazed, so she agreed without thinking.

By the time she realized what she’d agreed to, it was already too late.

“Yay!”

The seven little lolis cheered!

“Quiet down! If you delay the schedule, don’t expect to get paid!”

“If you don’t work, plenty of others will!”

The foreman bellowed.

The seven little lolis, Bai Miao, and K423 instantly lowered their heads and began working like zombies.

But Bai Miao only had one question spinning in her little head.

If Witches have Automatons, why are they making us mix concrete?

—

Su Ling chatted with Ke Ke for a while, then said goodbye at the door.

“Bye. See you tomorrow.”

“See you tomorrow.”

Su Ling watched Ke Ke’s bouncing figure as she skipped away.

Clearly, she was very happy about getting so many bonuses today.

Su Ling was in a good mood too.

Oh right, Tian Tian’s debt.

Thinking of that, she started contacting Tian Tian.

I am truly a transmigrator: “You there?”

Tian Tian Ling: “Yes. I actually have something I’d like to ask you. I’m already waiting at your door, but it seems you’re not home.”

Something?

Su Ling’s heart skipped a beat.

Su Ling exchanged a glance with Su Yao, then hurried home.

Sure enough, she saw three people crouching at the doorstep.

One was a pink-haired, big-chested older sister.

One was a Taoist robe–wearing phoenix.

And in the middle was Tian Tian herself.

Lilith, Qing Luan, Tian Tian.

“Good evening.”

Tian Tian greeted her enthusiastically, so enthusiastically it made Su Ling uncomfortable.

Uh oh!

Su Ling knew that when she acted like this, she was either up to no good or definitely had something to ask.

She invited the three into the house.

Lilith and Qing Luan made themselves right at home, even grabbing the fries on Su Ling’s table and starting to eat.

Tian Tian looked around first, then noticed the yawning Hajimi on the balcony.

“What a cute cat.”

Hajimi was creeped out by Tian Tian’s stare.

Just as she thought she’d been found out, Tian Tian picked her up and started petting her vigorously.

Meanwhile, the plush toy at her feet was casually kicked aside.

Turned out she was a cat person.

Dalian breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at the kicked-aside plush toy, feeling somewhat amused inside.

How laughable!

“Little sister, has this cat been neutered? I have a female cat at home that’s been in heat recently. I wanted to borrow him to solve the problem.”

“Ah, he’s been neutered for a long time.”

“Oh, what a shame.”

Dalian was now extremely resentful.

Being neutered was a sore point for her.

She looked toward the corner, and sure enough, that guy made a funny face at her.

Bullying a cat too much!

After some small talk, Tian Tian got to the point.

“Little sister, you must have heard, right? Recently, someone suspected to be a Zerg has been imitating Witch’s Hut members to hunt students.”

Upon hearing this, Su Ling’s spirits lifted.
