At this moment, Bai Ziling took off her sandals and walked barefoot on the beach, her snow-white hair fluttering in the sea breeze.
“It seems…” she said softly, “that it doesn’t approve of me being your friend.”
The strange creature stood still, afraid that if it took another step, the dragon behind it would twist its head off—that would be too embarrassing.
So it shrugged, turned to look at Bai Ziling, and asked, "Why do I need its permission to be friends with you? Are you two conjoined twins?"
The calamity dragon's brow ridges curved downwards, its pupils slightly narrowed, the crimson-gold light within them as dazzling as magma. It gasped for breath, its exhalations mingling with tiny flames. Its cold, sharp fangs flickered in and out of sight, as if desperately suppressing its rage.
The dragon stared at the strange thing for a long time, then asked, slowly and deliberately, "Why, why did you approach her?"
"You ask me why? Well, it's because I want to make friends."
"friend?"
"Yes, just like how I became friends with you." The strange thing stroked its chin thoughtfully and muttered to itself, "Right, to be fair... since you and I are friends, then my friend's friend is also my friend, so this lovely vampire should logically be considered my friend too, right?"
Bai Ziling raised an eyebrow, looked up from her snow-white hair, and asked curiously.
"Is that so? You two are friends?"
“Yes,” the strange thing said, taking two steps back to stand next to the Calamity Dragon and putting its arm around its shoulder. “We’re friends.”
It said in a serious tone, then patted the Calamity Dragon on the shoulder forcefully: "Super, super good friends, so good that I could let it play with my head like a ball, or we often get together and go out for a panda hot pot meal."
Bai Ziling was taken aback: "Panda Hot Pot?"
The strange thing nodded vigorously: "Yes, we often get together to eat panda hot pot. It's so cute. Every time it sees a panda, its mouth waters uncontrollably..."
"Shut up--!"
Enraged, the calamity dragon roared and drank a mouthful of fire from its bottomless throat, instantly burning the strange creature's right hand, which was resting on its shoulder, to ashes.
"Hu! Hu! Hu!"
The strange creature lowered its head and blew hard on its right arm, trying to extinguish the flames. Finally, it sighed and had no choice but to tear off its right arm and throw it onto the beach.
To avoid the flames spreading from the severed arm to the rest of the body, which would be a greater loss than gain.
"I'll ask you one last time... why did you get close to her?"
The dragon's eyes were hidden in the shadows of its brow ridges, and its voice was hoarse and gloomy.
The strange thing turned its head to the side, silently looked at it for a couple of seconds, and said slowly, "It's to remind her of something that will happen tomorrow."
"What is it?" Bai Ziling asked. Her voice was devoid of emotion.
"Yes……"
Just as the strange creature was about to speak, it was rudely interrupted by the calamity dragon beside it: "Don't listen to this guy, he just loves to spout nonsense. Last time he even claimed to be Conan Dolph. I'll take care of him and shut him up..."
As it spoke, it raised its sharp claws and reached towards the monster's head.
Bai Ziling shook her head. "No, I want to hear what it has to say. Can you be quiet for a moment?"
The calamity dragon paused for a moment, opened its mouth as if to say something, then slowly lowered its crimson eyes, retracted its claws, and squatted on the beach like a cat.
“Okay…” It swallowed a mouthful of water and let out a hoarse sound from its throat.
The strange creature grinned slightly and reached out to rub the calamity dragon's head: "That's more like it, baby dragon. How can you be so rough with your friends?"
"Get out of my way." The calamity dragon slapped its hand away.
In the moonlight, the light in Bai Ziling's eyes shone like jewels. She looked up from her sand-covered feet, staring motionlessly at the strange thing, and asked softly.
"So... what were you trying to say?"
"It is a very important matter."
The strange thing met her gaze, raised an index finger, and spoke slowly.
"Important matter?"
The strange thing nodded, its tone tinged with mockery: "Yes, and it's also related to our good friend, Baby Dragon. In fact..." It paused, slowly lowering its gaze to look at the dragon crouching on the ground, "This whole thing is aimed at it."

Chapter 106 The New Guests of the Perco Family
April 7th, night.
Ke Mingye rubbed the bridge of his nose, put down the textbook in his hand expressionlessly, and as he let out a breath, a panel popped up in front of him.
Without thinking, he looked up and saw a dense array of text.
[Congratulations! You have completed the first objective of the main quest "The Demise of the Vampires"—approaching Bai Ziling, the "White-Haired Vampire," under a disguise.]
The next objective of this main quest is: "Destroy the vampire hunter organization"—use Kashiwagi as bait to lure the vampire hunters to the city and kill them all.
Upon seeing this, Ke Mingye couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.
"Come on, what kind of organization is the Vampire Hunters? Is this another one as inexplicable as the Shadow Ninja Sect?" he thought.
[Node reward points obtained: 2000 experience points, 8 attribute points, 2000 shop coins.]
There are currently 8 idle attribute points. Please allocate and use them promptly.
Ke Mingye assigned it directly to "neural response" without the slightest hesitation.
Your "Neural Response" attribute has changed from 25 to 33 points (up 8 points).
[Congratulations! Your "Neural Response" attribute has successfully surpassed the minimum attribute standard for "F-level superhumans" (30 points).]
Ke Mingye breathed a sigh of relief, thinking to himself.
"An F-level reaction seems unlikely to be of much use. I'll just have to improvise and try to die as slowly as possible."
The series of events that just happened on the beach were very simple.
Despite Ke Mingye's apparent ability to stand up in front of elementary school students, just as he was about to reveal the dragon's true identity to Bai Ziling, his head was twisted off by the Calamity Dragon.
In the end, he had no choice but to leave with regret.
Just ten minutes later, Bai Ziling and Ke Yongzhu returned home one after the other. Ke Yongzhu even brought her a drink on the way. Because they had made a pact with Ke Yinzhi about the right to use the TV, it was now their turn to use it, so they sat on the sofa, drinking their beverages and watching "Zootopia".
Ke Mingye came downstairs and sat down next to the two of them. Just as he was about to say something, Bai Zini rushed downstairs, her eyes shining, and said, "Brother, brother!"
"What's wrong?" Ke Mingye asked.
"I've already arranged with my older brothers that we're going to MixC Mall tomorrow, and Dad will reimburse us. He even gave my older brother a whole two thousand yuan!"
"Wow, two thousand yuan! We're going to have a blast tomorrow." Ke Mingye said expressionlessly. "Then you'd better keep an eye on Big Brother, or he might pocket it all."
"How could that be? If my brother dared to do that, I'd bite him to death." Bai Zini snorted, turning to look at the other two on the sofa, "What are you two trying to do?"
"I want to see a movie, please book movie tickets for me," Ke Yongzhu said.
Bai Zini frowned and said disdainfully, "You watch movies at home all the time, but you should watch movies when you go out too. Can't you go shopping at the mall?"
Just then, Bai Qiuwu pushed open the door, took off her shoes, and walked in. She was about to step over the sofa when she stopped, glanced at the four of them, and asked, "What are you all talking about?"
"But where have you been, sis? I couldn't find you earlier." Bai Zini turned to look at her.
“Uh…” Bai Qiuwu paused for a moment, then smiled and said, “I went to see a friend, but unfortunately I didn’t get to see him.”
Ke Mingye was stunned when he heard this, thinking to himself, "Sis, you're not going to look for me on the No. 7 overpass again, are you? I don't have time to meet you tonight."
He said, "We're going to MixC shopping mall tomorrow."
Bai Qiuwu raised an eyebrow: "Wanxiang City, huh? Then take me with you." Although she was talking to Ke Mingye, her gaze unconsciously drifted towards Ke Yongzhu.
All day long, her mind was filled with the strange thing's advice to her on the overpass, saying that someone would be targeting Ke Yongzhu tomorrow and that she had to protect him.
What kind of person would target a child? She wondered, is it my enemy, or Xiao Ni's enemy? We're the only ones in the family who are superhuman, so there are only these two possibilities…
“Sure,” Ke Mingye said casually, “I’ll take you, it’s on me.”
"So rich? You're not really gambling on the dark web, are you?" Bai Qiuwu said.
“It was clearly Dad who reimbursed you, don’t listen to your brother’s nonsense,” Bai Zini said, exposing the truth.
"That's good," Bai Qiuwu said. "By the way..." she said, putting down her backpack and taking out a box. "Guess what's inside?"
Ke Mingye glanced at the box and was about to say pizza when an information panel inexplicably popped up on top of the box.
[Category: Cat]
[Biological sex: Male]
[Danger Level: B]
[Description: A cat accidentally caught up in an illegal genetic experiment involving mutants. It can see through the effects of superpowered individuals' abilities and replicate them. It escaped from the laboratory 10 days ago and is currently a stray.]
[The superpower that this species is currently replicating and using: Love (forces a target to develop feelings of affection for oneself)]
[Note: Extraordinary animals are not included in the category of superhumans.]
"What the hell?" Ke Mingye was stunned. "Sis, could you be any more adept at picking things up?" He then thought, "Wait, did she see through this cat with her eagle eyes, or... was she bewitched by this cat's supernatural powers?"
"Is there a cat inside?"
Bai Zini glanced at the box curiously and heard a gurgling sound inside, like a motorcycle engine, and made a deduction.
"As expected of our Nini, you even guessed it."
