Inside the containment facility, Wen Wen, unaware that he had caused a demon organization to migrate for the second time,摸着下巴 (mōzhe xiàba - stroking his chin) and nodded.
"Hmm, that guy should have been killed by now, after all, his strength wasn't that great."
After resolving a potential threat, Wen Wen was in a great mood.
So, he went out and bought a batch of high school ideological and moral test papers, distributing them to the monsters for an assessment.
The one with the best score, Wen Wen would give a certain reward.
However, even so, there was widespread discontent within the cells, with constant curses directed at Wen Wen.
Seeing the dense text on the test paper, the little rabbit demon burst into tears, "Waa, why are you bullying little bunny, bunny is so cute."
Yes, she didn't recognize a single word.
But she also wanted a reward; she wanted to eat meat. She had been eating vegetarian for the past few days, and her mouth felt bland.
The other monsters' reactions were equally spectacular. Some tried to cheat, some ate the papers, and some flirted with the examiners, attempting to bribe them.
However, all their reactions were futile.
Wen Wen was an upright examiner. After an hour, Wen Wen collected all the papers and graded them one by one.
"You are the worst batch I have ever taught!"
In just ten minutes, Wen Wen had tallied everyone's scores.
One monster who destroyed the papers was rewarded with two lashes, and those who didn't answer diligently were given one lash. These lashes were condensed from the power of the Disaster Prison Master, ensuring that the monsters would feel tangible pain.
As for those who couldn't understand the papers, Wen Wen found it difficult to punish them.
The most diligent in taking the test was Xu Hai, but his approach was a bit bizarre. One question asked what to do if someone fell into a river.
Xu Hai's answer was to wait until the person fainted from drowning, then retrieve them and create a puppet...
However, to reward his diligence, Wen Wen decided to give him a good meal.
Ultimately, the best performer was Tao Qingqing. After all, she had been human once, and tackling high school ideological and moral questions was naturally a piece of cake for her.
Wen Wen walked to Tao Qingqing's cell door and said with a gratified expression, "Your score is the best, I've decided to give you a reward."
Tao Qingqing's eyes lit up and she said, "I want to drink blood, the fresh blood of a pure maiden under eighteen years old..."
Wen Wen nodded, then said, "The reward I've decided to give you is five sets of cosplay outfits. I spent a long time choosing them; they are quite cute."
Tao Qingqing: "...You are truly a pervert. This isn't a reward at all, is it?"
While teasing Tao Qingqing, Wen Wen suddenly felt a stir in his heart and looked towards the adjacent cell.
In the sixth cell of the disaster zone, a new monster had appeared, likely captured by Gong Bao Ding.
This monster had a face like a hyena, a slightly pale human body, and turbid orange-yellow eyes.
It exuded an aura of decay and a subtle, indescribable stench.
This was a ghoul!
Gong Bao Ding had been staking out this monster for many days, and before leaving, he had finally captured it.
Wen Wen curiously watched the ghoul, took out a small slingshot, and flicked small pebbles at it, making the monster rage but leaving it utterly helpless against Wen Wen.
"Ghoul... Tsk, do these things really survive by eating human corpses? Then they'll be hard to keep."
Next, as usual, Wen Wen briefly tested the ghoul's physique. Su Dan Novel Network.
This ghoul's combat ability was very strong, even much stronger than a disaster-level vampire. Otherwise, Gong Bao Ding wouldn't have taken so much effort to capture it.
But since this wasn't a monster Wen Wen had captured himself, Wen Wen could only use half of his strength. Overall, it was not as practical as the vampire physique.
To become stronger, Wen Wen mainly had to rely on himself. Most monsters captured by others were useless; they could only be used to increase numbers.
He looked up at the ceiling of the containment facility and sighed.
"When can the promotion be completed? I can't wait to try Yan Biqing's power. If it's delayed any longer, what if he starves to death?"
...
Three days later, Wen Wen received a phone call from Zhao Jinwu. He had already sold all those antiques.
Since they didn't go through formal channels, they sold for a total of just over four million, with the value halved at least.
But for Wen Wen, this was still a considerable sum, enough to keep the containment facility operating normally for a long time.
Wen Wen wanted cash, so they agreed to meet at the previous coffee shop for the transaction.
He was leisurely sipping his coffee when he suddenly frowned. He heard arguing again.
Wen Wen sighed. Why did someone always have to ruin the atmosphere every time he came here for coffee?
The ones arguing this time were the same young couple who were almost affected by the white suits last time.
Zhang Fan grabbed Liao Jialu's hand and pleaded, "Lulu, you can't do this to me. We're already engaged."
"Zhang Fan, I warn you, stop bothering me, or I'll call the police," Liao Jialu threw off Zhang Fan's hand and said to him with a cold expression.
Zhang Fan was slightly breakdown, "Lulu, do you still remember the vows of love we exchanged a few days ago? We went through so much together..."
Liao Jialu looked at Zhang Fan with disgust, as if she were looking at a piece of filth, "Who knows what kind of charm you used on me? The me from a few days ago was an idiot, getting engaged to you in a daze. You know yourself if there was something fishy about it. I didn't expect you to be this kind of person."
After speaking, she left directly. Zhang Fan knelt on the ground and muttered to himself.
"You promised me, promised to help me get him. The contract is signed, but why did you disappear so suddenly..."
He didn't know that someone had heard his whisper clearly.
"Tsk, in just a few days, these two have progressed to engagement? I specifically sent people to keep an eye on them..."
"The contract is signed. It seems he couldn't resist the temptation in the end. That guy's methods are very concealed. If they hadn't suddenly disappeared, who knows what would have happened to these two."
Wen Wen shook his head, looking at Zhang Fan with a touch of pity.
He planned to inform Lin Zheyuan about Zhang Fan's situation after he got the money.
Ordinary people who have signed contracts with unknown entities should at least be monitored by the Hunter Association for a period.
And during this period, Wen Wen didn't know if the Hunter Association would do anything to him.
Now, the dejected Zhang Fan was unaware of the predicament he was about to face.
...
After a few minutes, Zhao Jinwu arrived with a few people, each carrying several boxes.
Over four million in cash couldn't fit into a single ordinary briefcase.
Wen Wen calmly watched the boxes while sipping his coffee, but in his heart, he was already a bit excited.
Pitifully, after working as a detective for so long, the money he earned couldn't even fill one of these boxes.
