There is a beast in the bright morning.

Chapter 132 The Present World - Heading to the Capital

Inside the Di Mansion, Di Ting stared at his empty bedroom and was instantly stunned: "Wait, is this my room?"

At first, Di Ting thought he had gone to the wrong room, so he went out to check the door. After confirming that he hadn't gone to the wrong room, he was left with nothing but confusion.

If I remember correctly, my room wasn't like this before. The bed, table, wardrobe, and the clothes inside the wardrobe were all gone.

After seeing Di Ting's empty bedroom and noticing his pale face, Xiao Lou felt sorry for his father and thought to himself that he must work hard to earn money and buy lots and lots of things for his father.

Di Ting's eyelids twitched. He had a rough idea of ​​what was going on, but he still asked the earth, "Earth, tell me quickly what's going on?"

"Haochen! Haochen! Haochen!"

Hearing the earth's reply, Di Ting's heart finally settled down. No wonder Hao Chen looked so nervous when he heard that he had to come back to change clothes, and even left in a hurry without staying for dinner.

Di Ting originally thought Hao Chen had something urgent to attend to, but now that he thought about it, Di Ting only felt extremely aggrieved.

"Damn Haochen, it's one thing to take the other things, but at least leave my clothes behind! They contain the birthday gifts from my master and Brother Qinghuo!"

Suddenly, Di Ting seemed to remember something, and quickly went to the place where the bed was originally placed. Then he picked up a dark-colored floor tile and saw that there was a hole in the ground about half a meter long and wide under the tile.

When Di Ting saw inside the cave, the "Bai Ze Photo Album" that he had specially collected was nowhere to be found. He cursed Hao Chen, that shameless scoundrel, in his heart. That photo album was his treasure.

Di Ting took out his phone, intending to call Hao Chen and ask him to return the clothes, especially the photo album.

But after thinking about it, Di Ting didn't call Hao Chen, but instead called the Four-Unlikes directly.

Di Ting thought to himself, given Hao Chen's personality, he would never return what he had so easily. So it would be better to call Si Xiang Bu Xiang and ask him to get it back for him. Maybe that would give him a better chance.

The Four-Unlikes was leisurely lying in the shop, drinking milk tea with Rabbit and Tianlu, enjoying a rare moment of peace, but a phone call from Diting instantly disrupted his mood.

After learning what Hao Chen had done, the Four-Faced Beast could only apologize to Di Ting and promise to handle the matter properly and give him an explanation before hurriedly ending the call.

After ending its call with Di Ting, the Qilin breathed a sigh of relief and then asked Rabbit Lord beside it, "Rabbit Lord, has Hao Chen come back?"

"Haochen, he hasn't come back yet. What's wrong, you four-legged creature? Is there anything you need help with? You can tell me!"

"What? He's not back yet? Where did he go?"

At this moment, the four-legged creature just wanted to find Hao Chen's whereabouts as soon as possible. When it heard Rabbit Master say that Hao Chen had not returned, its first reaction was that Hao Chen had run away.

Seeing that the four-legged creature seemed very anxious, Rabbit asked, "What happened to the four-legged creature?"

The Four-Faced Beast briefly recounted what Hao Chen had done at the Di Mansion. When Rabbit Lord heard that Hao Chen had emptied Di Ting's bedroom, he was equally startled: "Four-Faced Beast, why don't we call and ask where Hao Chen went?"

"Okay, call him back quickly and return the things that belong to Di Ting to me."

However, it seemed as if Hao Chen knew what the Four-Unlikes and Rabbit Lord wanted from his calls. The Four-Unlikes and Rabbit Lord made several calls in a row, but Hao Chen hung up on them all.

"No, why isn't Haochen answering his phone?" Rabbit Lord put down his phone in frustration.

The four-legged creature snorted coldly and said, "What else could it be? It probably knows it's in trouble, so it's afraid to answer the phone."

The four-legged creature grew angrier and angrier, and said directly to Rabbit Master, "Haochen is getting bolder and bolder. He actually dared to hang up on me. When he comes back, I will definitely deduct his salary."

Upon hearing about the pay cut, Tianlu, who was drinking milk tea, choked instantly: "Cough cough cough."

Then Tianlu said, "Have you forgotten, Qibuxiang? Haochen still owes you money. Where would you get the money to deduct from his salary?"

Reminded by Tianlu, the Qilin also remembered that although Haochen had used the savings in the cave to pay back part of the debt last time, it was far from enough. Based on Haochen's current salary, he would have to pay back the debt for at least another 200 years.

The four-legged creature then looked at Tianlu: "Pipi, didn't you forget about yourself? You also owe money. Have you thought about how to pay it back? How about another fan meeting?"

"Pah, you won't be able to trick me again, you four-legged creature!" As soon as Tianlu heard the four-legged creature mention the fan meeting, he became very wary and looked at the four-legged creature with a vigilant expression, as if he was worried that he would be sold out by the four-legged creature again.

"Haha, just kidding." The four-legged creature chuckled sheepishly, but in his heart he was already planning whether to hold another Pixiu reception. The last one was quite well received and made money quickly.

Just then, Rabbit suddenly took out his phone and said, "Quick, look, Haochen is in the capital right now."

"The capital?!" The four-legged creature took Rabbit Master's phone and saw that it was Hao Chen's WeChat Moments, with the background showing the capital airport.

"What is he going to do in the capital?" the four-legged creature asked, frowning.

Rabbit shook his head: "I don't know, and I haven't heard him mention having any friends in the capital!"

"I know, I know!" Tianlu excitedly declared that he knew why Haochen went to the capital.

"Pipi, do you know?"

Seeing that both the Qilin and the Rabbit were looking at him, Tianlu explained, "Well, Haochen should have gone to find Bai Ze. I remember he's been preparing to collect Bai Ze's fur recently."

"What are you going to do with collecting Bai Ze's fur? Could it be..."

The four-legged creature suddenly realized that Hao Chen was probably going to collect the fur of the divine beasts to make toys again, so it hurriedly asked Tian Lu for confirmation: "Pipi, let me ask you, did Hao Chen go to that cave again?"

Tianlu scratched his head and asked, "Which cave are you referring to, the Four-Unlikes?"

"It's that cave with lots of statues!"

"Oh, the cave you mentioned, the one that the Qilin doesn't resemble."

"Yes, that's the one. Does Haochen still go there?"

Tianlu nodded: "Haochen went too, and he did it secretly, but I saw him."

Tianlu's words confirmed the Four-Faced Beast's conjecture. However, the Four-Faced Beast would not stop Haochen; on the contrary, it would strongly support him. All he needed to do was find the right moment to appear.

Hao Chen, far away at the airport in Beijing, had no idea that the fruits of his hard work over the past few months would be snatched away by the four-legged monster.

At this moment, Hao Chen transformed into a young man dressed in a white robe, his long hair casually tied into a bun, truly a gentleman as elegant as jade, unparalleled in the world.

Of course, the above is purely Hao Chen's own fantasy. In the eyes of those around him, he is just a chuunibyou teenager who dresses up in ancient costume.

Just then, Hao Chen's phone rang in his pocket. He took it out and saw that it was Tian Lu calling. He pressed the answer button, but he still felt a little uneasy.

Soon, Tianlu's voice came through the phone: "Haochen, can you hear me?"

"I can hear you, Tianlu, is there something you need?"

Hao Chen didn't hear Tian Lu speak, but instead heard a scramble, as if the Qilin was trying to snatch Tian Lu's phone.

Soon, a strange, unidentifiable voice came from the other end of the phone: "Haochen, get back here right now and return Diting's things to me immediately."

Hao Chen picked at his ear, surprised that the Qilin knew so quickly, so it must have been Di Ting who told him: "Alright, Qilin, it's just some tables made of ebony and stuff, it's not worth anything, Di Ting won't care."

“I don’t care. You took all of Di Ting’s clothes. What’s the meaning of that? Aren’t you going to return them? Those were gifts from Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva to Di Ting.”

Upon hearing the words of the four-legged creature, Hao Chen realized that when he moved the wardrobe, he seemed to have indeed taken Di Ting's clothes as well.

"Wait... clothes?!"

Hao Chen felt a surge of excitement. Di Ting's clothes! He had been eyeing those clothes for a long time. They were so tasteful and came in so many styles, including serious, casual, cute, trendy, and alternative styles... they had everything.

Seeing that Hao Chen remained silent for a long time, the Qilin called out again, "Hao Chen, are you still listening?"

"Beep beep... It's a strange creature... My signal is bad here, so... so I'll hang up." Hao Chen hung up the phone quickly after saying that.

Hearing the busy tone from the phone, the four-legged creature angrily slammed it down: "Haochen, if you're so capable, don't come back."

As soon as the four-legged creature finished speaking, it was pounced on by a figure.

Tianlu sat on the chest of the Four-Unlikes with a displeased expression: "Four-Unlikes, how dare you smash my phone! I'm going to eat you up!"

As Tianlu spoke, he opened his mouth wide at the four-legged creature. Upon seeing this, Rabbit Lord immediately became anxious and grabbed Tianlu's tail, saying, "Pipi, stop! Let me handle this."

"You two better wake up! Wake up, hoof!"

With two screams, the Qilin calmly got up and straightened its cloak.

Hao Chen was unaware of what was happening on the other side of the Four-Unlikes; he was currently in trouble.

Looking at the towering buildings of the capital city, Hao Chen didn't know where to go.

"Oh no, I only wanted to hide from Di Ting and maybe do some business with Bai Ze, but I ended up in the capital. Now how am I supposed to find Bai Ze?" Hao Chen muttered.

Fortunately, at that moment, Hao Chen saw a white humanoid fox with nine tails.
