You are not monster girls!

Chapter 141: Do succubi reproduce asexually by spitting out eggs? (4k)

During his journey to another world and his career as a monster expert, Lin Muran would occasionally share his observations about the history or the benefits of the era with Selena.

The purpose is to remind the other party that they must not miss any opportunity to acquire social resources.

Seeing that Sally had bought such a large house, it was clear that the other party had taken his complaints to heart.

Lin Muran and Selena's contract is a soul bond, which means that he unintentionally reached the pinnacle of life.

"Didn't expect you guys to have found out about this?"

Lin Muran basked in the worshipful gazes of the three spirit beasts; this was the first time in days that he had felt what "respect" meant from them.

He brought over the remaining lotus root starch from the kitchen, then handed a small bowl to Xia Li and asked, "So tell me, besides this haunted house, what other investments have you made?"

The big investors don't need to invest a lot; as long as they can win just one prize, the dividends alone are enough to make them live comfortably.

Let alone two spirit beasts, raising five or six more shouldn't be a problem.

"Boss, over the long years, I've come to understand one thing."

"whats the matter?"

"The more skilled one is at calculation, the more likely one is to fail due to unexpected circumstances. Vampires ultimately have their limits."

"You wouldn't be...?" Lin Muran felt a chill run down her spine.

"Instead of struggling to reach the top, it's more practical to start sleeping halfway through."

"Don't tell me which move you chose."

"I bought the building and started renting it out as instructed by my boss."

Sally didn't care about the shock on Lin Muran's face at all. She couldn't wait to bring the photinia lotus root starch to her, but when she saw Xia Li next to her with her mouth open as if she wanted to eat her, she reluctantly shared some with her.

"You're a nice girl, little sister."

“I’m 300 years old,” Sally said irritably.

"Just a heads up, even the little Azure Dragon is 500 years old. You seem to be the youngest here." Qingyi hesitated for a long time before finally exposing Sally's fantasy.

Bai Mengqing didn't say anything, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up. She had been bullied for so long, and finally there was someone easy to bully.

“…” Sally’s long, black tail trembled like radio waves as she silently began to eat.

"You said you bought a property to rent out, but where did you buy it?"

Lin Muran swallowed hard: "It can't be this house, can it?"

"Yes."

"I told you to buy a building to rent out, not to buy a haunted house!!"

“Those self-built houses are too ugly and don’t fit the living characteristics of vampires.”

"You're a succubus, and you've even picked one."

"It's a vampire!!"

Sally's pale face showed a hint of anger: "Boss, you're a 25-year-old virgin, you have no right to point fingers at me."

Bai Mengqing and Qingyi covered their mouths at the same time, almost unable to hold it in.

This was the first time they had ever seen a girl attack Lin Muran like this.

There's nothing wrong with being a virgin, but this scene is inexplicably funny.

"Ah."

Lin Muran sneered: "You talk as if you're not one of them."

"Goo!"

A sliver of color returned to Sally's face as she half-removed her nightgown, revealing tiny bat wings hidden beneath her rounded shoulders: "I'm a vampire, it's normal to lack experience, okay?"

"Tips: Succubus wings look like this too, and vampires don't have tails."

"I'm going to... just kill them all. I'm tired. Let's just destroy them." Sally slumped back onto the sofa and ate her meal replacement.

"Shouldn't succubi be like those foxes, all battle-hardened and filthy?"

Inspired by the learning materials and Qingyi, Bai Mengqing instantly became interested.

“According to the monster expert column, yes,” Qingyi agreed.

Lin Muran glared at Qingyi in annoyance before explaining:

"As a half-blood, Sally inherited the vampire's pride and restraint, which is the complete opposite of the succubus's promiscuity. It's normal that she has no experience."

"However, this also left her feeling like she was being bullied by both sides and couldn't survive, which is why she reluctantly signed the contract with me."

"Turns out she's a person with a tragic fate too, *sobs*"

"What's so unfortunate about you?"

Bai Mengqing glanced disdainfully at Qingyi, who was wiping her eyes and pretending to cry.

Sally didn't argue: "Explain it however you like."

"Since you can afford such a big house, you must have a business of a certain scale, right?" Lin Muran asked.

Given Sally's identity and the location she traveled to, it's normal that she missed the opportunity to cooperate with the big shot. However, it's definitely impossible to buy such a big house without some capital.

Even if he's just a broken body, Lin Muran can still try to rebuild his life and see if he can make a comeback.

Besides, with Selena's skills, she's more than capable of playing in the relegation matches, let alone the peak matches.

"Yes, I do. I own a restaurant, a century-old brand."

"Where?" Lin Muran was overjoyed.

“In the Forbidden City and the concessions of Shanghai,” Sally said casually.

She even cooked for the Empress Dowager, so she's quite capable.

"It really is an old brand. What about now?"

Lin Muran basically told Sally about modern history, and as long as she remembered a little bit, she should be able to avoid all the dangers.

"I was able to make some money at the beginning of the millennium, but business didn't go well later, so I switched."

"I didn't expect that even Quanjude couldn't survive. It really shouldn't have happened." Lin Muran gritted his teeth.

Is Quanjude food really that bad?

"I don't know, but I guess so."

Faced with Bai Mengqing's question, Qingyi could only shake her head.

After all, she'd never tried it, but judging from its infamous reputation, appearing on almost every blacklist, it must be incredibly unpalatable.
Sally was getting annoyed by Xia Li's tail whipping her, so she shifted her butt to the other side: "It's good that it's off. Anyway, there's no way to replenish magic power. It's a good opportunity to find a place to sleep."

As a noble vampire, she has very high requirements for blood.

Not only must the magic content be high, but the other party must also be good-looking and have a high IQ.

"If it's delicious, surely someone will eat it, right?"

Xia Li licked the white foam from her lips and nudged Selby's arm with the bowl.

She felt that if Lin Muran opened a restaurant with her skills, there would definitely be a constant stream of customers every day, and Sally, as her assistant, would certainly not be any less skilled.

"I don't know, but it started to decline at some point. I've given you all the good luck, so stay away from me."

Sally sighed, and seeing Xia Li raise her paw, she quickly shoved the whole bowl into Xia Li's hands.

What kind of creature is this? I've never seen this kind of monster girl in the boss's monster encyclopedia.

Even if the boss is catching ghosts, he wouldn't need to bring in such a perverted thing, would he?

She was genuinely a little afraid of this humanoid giant transport vehicle.

"Starting from a certain time period."

Lin Muran pondered for a moment, then asked hesitantly, "Where did you get your recipes and ingredients?"

The materials in the other world are completely different from those in the real world. Even if Selena honed her culinary skills to perfection there, coming here would basically mean starting from scratch.

"I got it from the imperial kitchen and the foreign concessions."

"So you're not going to make any improvements at all?" "...I can't."

"To be honest, I'm pretty sure now that I can easily beat you with any dish I make, Sally." Lin Muran wiped his sweat.

To be able to work at the beginning of the millennium using old Qing Dynasty remedies is quite an achievement.

But does she not use the internet? She could make a quick buck before the market collapses by preparing pre-made meals or something.

Sally glanced at Lin Muran with disdain and stretched lazily: "Boss, I know you're a jack-of-all-trades, but I have almost two hundred years of experience as a chef."

"Aren't you a little too blind to your own abilities?"

In the past, Lin Muran might have been better than her, but things are different now. She has been honing her culinary skills for 100 years and could easily defeat her with one hand.

"Ha, I think you're the best."

"Lin Muran's cooking is definitely better than yours!!"

Before Lin Muran could speak, Bai Mengqing stepped in front of him and said, "Although he is inconsiderate, not good-looking, and ruthless, his strength is undeniable."

Lin Muran:???

"You enjoyed this white paste today, but I can't make it."

"tsk"

Sally didn't refute Xia Li's words, but simply turned her face away.

Qingyi stole a glance at Lin Muran. Provoked by the traitor and Bai Mengqing, she became even more curious about Lin Muran's breakfast.

Is it so delicious?

This morning, I woke up late and Lin Muran had already packed her things and was ready to leave. I could only buy some steamed buns downstairs and have a quick meal.

She vowed to move into Lin Muran's house no matter what, to see what was really going on.

"I'll show you another chance later. Let's get down to business now."

Lin Muran waved his hand: "If you wanted to rent out the house, why did you choose to buy this haunted house in the first place?"

"I heard a ghost story on the radio that said blood came out when the tap in a haunted house was turned on, so I bought it."

"You weren't that mysterious buyer from over a decade ago, were you?" Lin Muran's face darkened.

“It’s me,” Sally said, raising her head slightly.

"From now on, please don't say you're my assistant to outsiders. I can't afford to lose face like that."

Lin Muran originally wanted to ask Sally if she had any savings, but now it seemed unnecessary.

No amount of savings or buying at the peak can save the market.

He suddenly remembered that Sally had said she was the owner of the house, and immediately asked, "You said you came 200 years ago, so how do you have the right to buy a house?"

The fact that Sally was able to obtain an identity in this way shows that she must have connections.

Then I wouldn't need to rely on Qingyi's incredibly vague identity ritual clues.

“Just give them some money, pull some strings with the production team, and you can get a household registration, right?” Sally said casually.

"Uh, isn't it a bit too early for you to have this identity?"

"It's okay, I just updated my identity recently."

Sally searched her pockets for a long time, then lay on the floor for a while before finally finding her household registration booklet with a few papers tucked inside under the table. She handed it to Lin Muran and said, "Here you go."

"Death certificate, name Hao Saili, born in the 60s, cause of death: dismemberment?!"

Lin Muran glanced at the photos tucked inside, then at Sally: "You've learned asexual reproduction?"

"Asexual reproduction?"

Bai Mengqing once again sought help from her second modern socialization mentor, Qingyi, and even Xia Li turned her attention to her.

I'm from the same world as you all, so why do you all ask me this?
There's really nothing I can do.
Who told me to be the mentor?

Qingyi racked her brains before smiling and explaining to the other party, "It's... um... Piccolo the Great Demon King spits out eggs, you know? That's asexual reproduction."

"So succubi can spit out eggs too!!!"

Bai Mengqing suddenly slapped her forehead, and she and Xia Li simultaneously turned their gazes toward Selby.

Sally's tail stood on end: "You guys are the ones spitting out eggs!!"

"Master, yes."

"Oh dear, my good disciple, are you not full? Come, let your master feed you, be good~"

Instead of getting angry, Qingyi laughed. She flashed over, snatched the bowl, grabbed Xia Li's mouth, and poured the lotus root starch into it.

The text itself is heartwarming, but the tone of voice inexplicably sends chills down your spine.

"Woo-woo-woo-woo"

Xia Li initially resisted a few times, but soon her hand fell limply to the sofa, and she became still.

"hiss"

Seeing Qingyi's appearance, Sally sat down on the armrest of the sofa with a look of horror.

She couldn't understand how this woman, who had been so afraid of this and that not long ago, could now show such a smile that would chill even vampires to the bone.

Is attracting abnormal women part of a boss's charm?

"But in the video Lin Muran posted, she said that after this house was bought, there were frequent cases of dismemberment or disappearances."

Bai Mengqing was also frightened by the murderous aura emanating from Qingyi, and secretly shrank behind Lin Mu to ask.

She always felt that these disappearances were inextricably linked to the heterochromatic-eyed monster in front of her.

"Yes, I did it."

"Don't you know that murder is illegal?"

"So I killed myself."

Bai Mengqing: ???

Seeing Bai Mengqing's astonished expression, Sally seemed intrigued: "A person's lifespan is limited. Sometimes when I'm in a bad mood, I break myself up to change my identity."

"Then why...?" Bai Mengqing was so frightened that she couldn't speak.

"How come you're still alive?"

Bai Mengqing: "No, what I meant was, how can you lay eggs and have offspring if you break yourself up?"

"I won't lay eggs!!!"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

Every time the word "laying an egg" was mentioned, Xia Li's screams grew louder and louder.

She forced herself to remain calm, leaning back on the sofa, twirling a strand of her gray hair between her fingers: "Vampires are immortal, so fragments are no big deal. They don't even need to go to the crematorium."

"You mean this is a perfect way to cover it up?" Bai Mengqing asked.

"You're smart."

Sally moved to the side again, looking at the master and apprentice who were still playing the suffocation game with disgust, but when she faced Bai Mengqing, her expression instantly changed to smugness.

"Is it possible that your household registration book already lists three generations of your family, and back then there wasn't a nationwide network, so you could just change your name?"

Lin Muran had no idea what it meant to dismember himself. He could have just gone to report and update the information, but instead he had to make such a big fuss.

He glanced at the ID card tucked between his fingers; her birth date was from a year shrouded in secrecy. It seemed there was no need to worry about her identity for the time being.

"Huh?" Sally's smile suddenly froze.

"Didn't you ever think that the reason your house became a haunted house and you couldn't rent it out, and you had to ask Qingyi to come and try it out, was because of your act of dismembering the body?"

"Huh?" Her mouth opened several times wider than before.

"Putting everything else aside, what I really want to know is, why did you invite people to try out the facilities, and why did you have to resort to such supernatural tricks to scare them, Miss Assistant?"
