That’s great. It looks like Jiang Zao was sleeping so soundly that he didn’t notice this side at all.

Pekorim let out a long sigh, then helplessly turned her head to look at Kailu and Huihui, whose quarrel on the bed had turned into a full-scale fight on the ground: "Are you still asleep? Don't wake Jiang Zao up."

When they heard the key words, they both fell silent, snorted at each other, and lay down back to back.

Kailu clamped her legs tightly together. The intense exercise just now made her feel even more uncomfortable because of the fullness. Seeing that Kokoro was still thinking about something, she suddenly became angry and grabbed her cheeks and rubbed them hard. Only then did she close her eyes and fall asleep contentedly.

......

When Pekolim woke up in the morning and saw Jiang Zao's attitude, she covered her face and cried like a puppy: "I'm going to sleep on the side tomorrow."

The other three companions' indifferent attitude towards this scene made her feel that she was the youngest one. She got up quietly to wash, and splashed cold water on her face several times before the temperature on her face dropped.

After breakfast, Jiang Zao was still sleeping soundly. Pekolin took the opportunity to tell the rest of her companions that she would sleep at the edge from now on. No one objected to this request. It might be said that she was asked to sleep in the middle yesterday just to check on Kael's body, otherwise she would not have been allowed to do so.

Jiang Zao slept until the afternoon, but when he woke up he still looked sleep deprived and yawned continuously.

"Kokoro, is his current condition really normal?"

"Don't worry, these are all normal symptoms. In a few days, the master will return to his original state. Now he is just adapting to the gradually awakening origin."

“The dragons are too good at sleeping... I can’t even play with them.” Huihui was unhappily spinning around while grabbing the [True Crimson Flame Staff]. Since she couldn’t play with Jiang Zao, her desire to release explosive magic was rising.

After eating a few mouthfuls of food, Jiang Zao went back to bed to sleep under the gaze of the girls. They had no choice but to leave one person in the room to watch him while the rest went out shopping.

Kael volunteered, but there was a high possibility that she would turn the room into a battlefield, so she was ignored by the girls. In the end, it was Kokoro who stayed. After all, she preferred staying with her master rather than going out to play. Even if she just sat there and daydreamed, she could spend the whole day leisurely.

Jiang Zao was still sleeping until the moon was high in the sky. Pekolim fell asleep beside the bed as she wished, thinking that she would not have to see such an exciting scene when she woke up tomorrow morning.

Her idea was still too naive. When the morning light woke her up, she was once again shocked by her companions' sleeping positions.

Huihui hugged Jiang Zao's neck with both hands and put her head on his chest. The saliva from her mouth wet his clothes. The loose clothes on her body revealed most of her snow-white shoulders.

Kokoro curled up under his armpit like a baby bird, and except for her head that emerged from the quilt, all her limbs seemed to be entangled with him.

Kailu's lower body was exposed outside the quilt, and the bulging head on Jiang Zao's belly must be hers. I don't know whether she is awake or asleep now. The cat's tail is swinging in a happy trajectory that even Pekolim can understand.

Although the room was mostly filled with the fragrance they were emitting, Pekolim could still smell a hint of heather.

In the past, she might not know what this meant, but it is different now. Having seen the ancient battlefield scenery in Kailu's room, she knows very well the meaning of this smell.

Worried that if this continued, sooner or later I would wake up one morning and see her at a party, so I took the initiative to ask to sleep in the middle of breakfast time as a dividing line.

The other three did not object, but just asked her if she really wanted to do this.

“I think it’s necessary to do this!”

Pekolim later regretted saying this. She didn't know that Jiang Zao actually had the habit of sleeping with something in his arms.

One morning she woke up from the reassuring embrace, looked up and saw Jiang Zao's face so close to her. At that moment she felt like her heart was about to explode.

"Huh?" She blinked in disbelief.

Why am I being held in Jiang Zao’s arms?

Did he mistake me for Kokoro and the others?

His strong arms tightly embraced Pekolim's waist and back. The two people who were pressed tightly together had two completely different heartbeats, one steady and the other rapid.

She didn't hate the feeling of oppression in her chest because she felt like she was being protected.

It's just... it should be okay to experience this feeling a little bit, right?

With this thought in mind, Pekolim grabbed Jiang Zao's clothes with both hands, buried her head in his arms, took a deep breath, and then let out a sigh of satisfaction.

Perhaps it was too reassuring, and when the sea breeze blew into the room and opened her eyelids, they were the only two left on the bed, and the rest of their companions were nowhere to be found.

She let out a whimper, closed her eyes and continued to sleep in Jiang Zao's arms.

This sleep was perhaps the most peaceful one Pekorim had ever had since she escaped from the palace. The uneasiness and fear hidden in her heart disappeared like a shadow meeting the sun.

She even dreamed of her parents, who stood on the terrace of the palace and gently caressed her when she was young: "When you meet someone you like, you will naturally understand what love is like."

"Well... I like daddy and mommy, doesn't that count as love?"

“Hahahaha~” The father laughed heartily: “Of course this is love. We love you too, but... liking us is different from liking someone else. As the brightest pearl of Landsol, I really don’t want a brat to enter your heart.”

"Go away, don't say things that will make her lonely for the rest of her life." Her mother wiped the snack crumbs from the corners of her mouth and said, "This kind of feeling cannot be explained clearly with words. You can only understand it by experiencing it yourself."

"Ok!"

Pekolim, standing in the shadow of the building, watched the scene silently. She bit her lips tightly and tears fell from the corners of her eyes.

Dad, Mom...I met the person destined for me, but I...I have no right to confess my feelings to him.

Having lost my identity and name...I am just lingering in this world with a false face.

"What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare?" Jiang Zao was awakened by the girl's tears dripping on his body, and he gently wiped away Pekolim's tears.

She woke up from the dream, shook her head and smiled brightly: "No, I had a very happy dream, so happy that I cried."

The sadness that flashed across her eyes did not escape Jiang Zao's sight, but he did not expose the lie. He just helped her tuck her messy hair behind her ears and said, "Then you must have a good appetite. Get up and have a big meal?"

"Oh~ As expected of you, you think the same as me!"

Pekolim left his arms without hesitation and ran into the bathroom.

Chapter 344: Hunting for Murder on the Seaside

From then on, it became Pekorim's habit to stay in Jiang Zao's arms for a little longer every morning. Huihui and the others had no objection, but they just didn't understand why they were like ordinary friends except for their intimate actions in the morning.

Is it possible that in this situation, we are still pulling each other?

Pekorim, who was concentrating on eating, suddenly became mysterious in their eyes.

Kailu casually put the newspaper on the table and said, "There seems to be something wrong with the water in Golden Sea Dream recently. Let's not eat seafood for the time being."

"Let me see..." Kokoro picked up the newspaper and flipped through it, then frowned: "A large number of fish died of unknown causes, and there were suspicious people wandering around at night?"

“Isn’t it a monster causing trouble?” Huihui suppressed her appetite and looked away from the Coke on the table. Her weight loss plan was coming to an end, and she couldn’t let her greed ruin it. “Aren’t there a lot of strange monsters in the sea?”

"If it was a monster hunting, there is no way it would leave fish carcasses behind."

"That's true."

Jiang Zao stroked his chin. He thought of something and turned to ask Kailu: "Do you still remember the airplane head we met at the beginning?"

“You mean the man who was nearly driven crazy by the Axis Cult?”

"Yes."

"Did that guy throw the soap into the sea right in front of us?"

"That's true." Kailu nodded, then she realized what was happening, widened her eyes and said in surprise, "Do you suspect that person is the culprit behind all this?"

Jiang Zao waved his hand and said, "We can't make a conclusion so early. At least I think he is very suspicious. After I recovered completely, I went to ask the three people from the Akusis Cult. They never sold soap that only produced bubbles, but they did sell edible soap. Cheating and making a scene were their main means of persuasion."

"From what you said, the soap is indeed suspicious."

"Let's go investigate tonight. We can't let him ruin our rare vacation."

The girls also agreed with his suggestion.

Time soon came to night, and the group from the Food Hall walked out of the room. Seeing that they were going out at night, the front desk specifically reminded them to be careful, as it was not very peaceful at night recently.

Jiang Zao looked at the half-lit pub and barbecue stall and sighed, "It seems that this incident really has a big impact."

"What a hateful guy! He wastes food and affects people's normal lives!" Pekolim clenched her fists, wishing the mastermind behind the scenes would appear in front of her immediately and knock him down.

"Let me think, he seemed to have appeared in this area last time..."

He brought the girls to the beach where they had encountered the plane nose before. There was no one in sight, only the corpses of various fish with their white bellies turned up, which were constantly washed to the beach by the waves. If there were not people coming to deal with these corpses every morning, the beach would have been filled with a foul smell in such hot weather.

"It's really impossible to run into him in the same place..."

"Shall we look for it on the shore?"

"Since he needs to throw the soap into the sea, he must be at the beach. Let's look for it along the beach."

Jiang Zao's guess was correct. They searched along the beach and finally saw the airplane nose near the edge of the distant isolated island. He was crying and trying to persuade a couple who were having a tryst here to leave. His words were exactly the same as what he had said to Jiang Zao before, without even the slightest change.

At this time, Jiang Zao had already determined that there was something wrong with the plane's head. Even if it was not directly related to the sea water mutation, it must have an indirect relationship.

After giving his companions a look, signaling them to hide their weapons, Jiang Zao took Kailu's hand and walked towards him: "Hey, you are still being harassed by the Akusis Cult?"

The guy was frightened by him and trembled all over. When he saw that it was someone he had seen before, he immediately relaxed and forced a smile and replied, "Yes, I have already paid compensation, but they still pester me to buy these soaps every day. If I don't buy them, they will spread rumors about me everywhere."

"You are really unlucky."

"That's it."

Jiang Zao pulled Kailu and pretended to leave, then suddenly turned around and asked him, "By the way, does your soap really only produce bubbles?"

"Huh? Oh, yes, it only produces bubbles. It can't be used to wash clothes."

"My girlfriend loves to pop bubbles. Since you don't want the soap, can you give it all to me? I can take it home and make some bubbles for her."

"Ah?" The guy obviously didn't expect him to make such a request. He was stunned for a moment, then stuttered, "But...but I bought this soap with my own money..."

"You don't want it anyway, and it would be a waste to throw it into the sea. Why not give it to me so that I can make my girlfriend happy." Jiang Zao never mentioned that he would spend money to buy it, and was determined to be a freeloader. He did this on purpose to show off to the guy with the airplane head.

The guy with the airplane head looked annoyed: "No way! You want to take something for free that I paid for? No way."

"Really not giving any?"

"If you... come and get it, I can give you one, but just one. Don't think about taking more."

Jiang Zao let go of Kailu's hand and gently tickled her palm a few times. Kailu understood what he meant and lowered her head pretending to be shy. She put her left hand behind her back and gestured to her companions to get ready for battle.

Four steps, three steps, two steps, one step.

Seeing that the other party finally walked up to him, the man with the airplane head showed a successful smile: "Do you really want this soap?"

"No, I'm not interested in soap." Jiang Zao showed his neat white teeth: "I just want to find out whether it is you who is causing trouble in the sea water."

The funny and pitiful look of the crew cut disappeared, and a sinister aura emanated from his ordinary face: "It's not a good thing for young people to be too curious."

"The desire to explore is an innate instinct of everyone, and I happen to be the type of person who is particularly curious."

Faced with Jiang Zao who refused to leave despite repeated warnings, Feijitou didn't intend to continue playing along with him. The highly toxic substances released during this period were enough to pollute the sea area, and his revenge on the three psychopathic cultists was also completed. They kept shouting about some bullshit water goddess every day. Now he had polluted the sea water, let's see what solution the goddess could come up with.

If they can't even deal with this poison, it means that those people are just believing in an incompetent god!

When he thought of the look on the face of the Axis cultists who had chased him, a leader of the Demon King's army, to pieces when their faith was shattered, Feiji raised his head and howled, "It feels so good! It feels so good!"

His skin began to crack, and a turbid semi-solid substance with a rotten smell continued to flow out of the cracks. He soon turned into a giant dark purple slime with a mouth full of fangs.

Chapter 345: It was all done by the Akusis Cult!

“I’m a cadre of the Demon King’s Army—Hans, the Most Poisonous Slime! If I run into those three Axis cultists in Hell, I’ll go complain to them and say, ‘It’s all your fault that you angered Lord Hans, so we died at his hands.’ Hahahahaha!”

Hans opened his mouth like a black hole and was about to swallow Jiang Zao and the ground whole. He raised his hand to signal him to wait for a moment: "Are you destroying here just to avenge those three believers?"

"Humph, since you are the only human who has comforted me, I will let you die with a clear mind." Hans slowly closed his huge mouth full of fangs. He spoke with an unknown organ, and his tone revealed a sense of resentment: "I heard that the soil here is very good, so I planned to come here to pollute it and eat a few humans."

"Oh, a very standard villain style. What next?" Jiang Zao took out a bag of potato chips from the storage space.

"On my first day here, I was pestered by those three psychopaths. They...wait, did I tell you about this part?"

"Hmm? So that wasn't a story you made up. Aren't you a cadre of the Demon King's Army? How did you swallow your anger and give them the money?"

"Humph, big cities like this have their own guardians. I don't want to run into those guys. They're very troublesome." Hans squirmed twice, as if he recalled some bad memories, and his tone became irritable: "In short, after those three guys targeted me, they tried day and night to get me to join the sect."

"He gets up earlier than the chickens every day, just to wait for me to leave the house first, and then uses his poor acting skills to throw mud at me, even saying that I am their long-lost brother! He is obviously mentally ill, but I don't know why he is so sensitive to danger. Several times, he was almost tricked out of the guardian's perception range by me, and he immediately found an excuse to run away."

Hans said this and regretted that he couldn't eat those three pieces of shit directly.

"That's it? No more?"

"Do you need any other reason?"

"For a cruel monster like you, it's really not necessary."

"Hahaha, thank you for the compliment."

"Kaka."

"That's all I have to say."

"Kakakaka."
