Chapter 123: Abiding by Laws and Regulations
Dr. Bai left again, heading to the Capital City.
Song Tiantian didn’t know what Dr. Bai went to do.
However, Shen Qing told Song Tiantian that she was now an employee of the Pet Beast Center again. He invited Song Tiantian to return to the Pet Beast Center, also stating that her salary would be doubled.
Song Tiantian refused; even with a doubled salary, it wouldn’t exceed one hundred thousand yuan.
Before, she needed a job because she was too poor.
Now it’s different; the things in her Pet Beast Space can ensure she has enough to eat and drink for a lifetime, making it unnecessary to go to work at all.
Liu Zheng was sent away again, for the same charge as before: abuse and kill pet beasts.
And his prison sentence was extended.
Liu Zhe actually chose to resign voluntarily and recommended Song Tiantian to become the new Supervisor of the Pet Beast Center.
The case Song Tiantian had reported was also officially filed.
Law Enforcement Officers called both Song Tiantian and Liu Zhe together to mediate between them.
Liu Zhe presented a Pet Beast Egg with Gold Talent to Song Tiantian.
“Researcher Song, regarding everything that happened before, it was my fault. I sincerely apologize to you here. This Pet Beast Egg is my apology.”
Pet Beast Eggs are different from Pet Beasts.
Pet Beast Eggs can be contracted directly during hatching, without regard for the Beast Tamer’s Talent.
These Pet Beast Eggs are extremely precious, essentially priceless.
If it weren’t a last resort, Liu Zhe wouldn’t have wanted to hand over this Pet Beast Egg.
Liu Zhe knew very well that Elder Huang hadn’t acted against him yet because he didn’t know Gongsun Ya had broken up with him.
It was out of fear of the Gongsun Family’s background.
The fact that Gongsun Ya broke up with him had not been made public.
If the news of Gongsun Ya breaking up with him spread, then, without Dr. Bai needing to act, those who wanted to curry favor with Dr. Bai would be able to kill him.
Everyone in Qingshan City knew that Dr. Bai left Qingshan City only after accompanying Song Tiantian to report the case.
This was enough to prove Dr. Bai’s importance to Song Tiantian.
Dr. Bai was angry; the officials had not rescued him when he was trapped.
Liu Zhe didn’t want to bear this anger, so he wanted to reconcile with Song Tiantian immediately.
He also knew that even if they reconciled this time, he wouldn’t get off lightly.
The Gongsun Family wouldn’t let him go, as he was affiliated with the Gongsun Family and was appointed as the Supervisor here by them.
Therefore, Dr. Bai would definitely go after the Gongsun Family.
Song Tiantian was an excellent excuse; the fact that he had acted against Song Tiantian was undeniable.
“Supervisor Liu, a mere Pet Beast Egg is not worth my life. I refuse.”
“Song Tiantian, if this is your attitude, then there’s nothing to discuss!”
Huang Xiaohua said sternly from the side.
She felt this compensation was quite good. This Pet Beast Egg had also been verified as a Gold Talent-level Pet Beast Egg, worth a fortune. Even she had never possessed such a precious Pet Beast Egg.
Her grandfather had actually treated Song Tiantian quite well and had asked her to help Song Tiantian and get along with her.
However, her grandfather was severely injured by Dr. Bai, whom Song Tiantian had brought with her, and was still in closed-door cultivation for healing.
Without her grandfather present, the pressure on the Law Enforcement Officers of Qingshan City when facing Fierce Beasts was immense. Fortunately, the Secret Realms in Qingshan City had recently stabilized, slowly merging with the terrain of Qingshan City and closing the Space Rifts.
“Then let’s not talk! You’re not going to help a murderer trap me here, are you!”
Song Tiantian was very angry.
There was only one life, and she had almost been killed by Liu Zhe.
Just because Liu Zhe didn’t succeed in killing her didn’t mean he was without fault.
Besides, a Gold Level Pet Beast was still a minor. Even an adult Pet Beast, she wouldn’t care.
Her life was very valuable.
Now that Dr. Bai had clearly stated he would back her up, if she backed down herself, wouldn’t anyone be able to step on her in the future?
“Song Tiantian!”
Liu Zhe wanted to suppress Song Tiantian with his aura, but his Spiritual Power and most of his Mental Power had been sealed by Dr. Bai.
He was completely unable to deal with Song Tiantian. Otherwise, he would have immediately fled into the Fierce Beast Secret Realm.
Being outside now was purely a dead end for him.
Both of his Pet Beasts had been torn apart alive by Dr. Bai right in front of him. Although he was a Seven-star Beast Tamer on the surface, he was now not much stronger than an Ordinary Person.
He hadn’t sustained any physical injuries, but in reality, he had suffered heavy losses.
This amount of Mental Power wasn’t even enough to contract a Pet Beast; it could only barely retrieve items from his Pet Beast Space.
Liu Zhe swallowed his anger. The instant death of his two Pet Beasts had also caused significant damage to his Mental Power, and his Spiritual Sea was still faintly aching.
“Song Tiantian, what exactly do you want to be satisfied?”
“I need you to be punished by the law. I have always been law-abiding and hate those who arbitrarily trample on the law the most.”
Song Tiantian came from a peaceful time and had been an honest and rule-abiding person since childhood.
She didn’t have the means before, but now that she had the strength, she naturally needed to uphold the justice of the law.
Those who harm others should be punished.
Judging by the practiced manner in which Liu Zhe harmed people, she was definitely not the first person Liu Zhe had persecuted.
If she forgave Liu Zhe this time, then she wouldn’t be the last person Liu Zhe persecuted.
Because deep in Liu Zhe’s eyes, he hadn’t truly realized his mistake.
“Song Tiantian, you are very good, very good!”
Liu Zhe sneered and sat down. He now understood that Song Tiantian truly wanted to put him to death.
He had thought about who he would die at the hands of, but he never expected to die at the hands of a green-faced brat.
Oh well, Dr. Bai wouldn’t let him go anyway.
Without the Wish Bird, without good luck, the Gongsun Family wouldn’t let him go either.
He was a pawn; he had been a pawn since he came to Qingshan City. Gongsun Ya breaking up with him meant she had abandoned him.
Since he was going to die anyway, there was no need to struggle.
At this moment, Huang Xiaohua didn’t dare to stop Song Tiantian from leaving. She could only ask Father Song to persuade Song Tiantian.
Originally, when Song Tiantian entered the Secret Realm and there was no news, Father Song had been arranged to rest at home.
He was forcibly retired.
However, after Dr. Bai and Song Tiantian reported the case together, and Song Tiantian refused to return to the Pet Beast Center, Father Song was rehired and even promoted to Director of the Neighborhood Office, a safe and high-paying position.
The reason for Father Song’s retirement was due to concerns that his promotion to Captain was somewhat irregular.
The previous promotion was because people owed a favor to Song Tiantian, or rather, to Dr. Bai. They knew of this connection and actively tried to please him.
However, in reality, the Captain position had very good benefits and treatment, and there were many people competing for it.
Furthermore, although Father Song’s Strength had improved slightly, reaching Two-star, many Beast Tamers had also been promoted to Two-star Beast Tamers during this period, and even more had been promoted to Three-star Beast Tamers.
