”Meow, meow, meow! Your Majesty! I have a way to settle this once and for all. Would you like to hear it?” Snow Lionet said in the midst of the quarrel.

Zhang Zian glared at Snowy Lionet then quickly explained to Fina, ”No, no, I wasn't trying to change the subject. I really did feel like that. It wasn't there when we first arrived in the parade square, but after a while I felt like there was a sharp pair of eyes watching us… Did you guys feel it too?”

”Zian, are you being serious?” Old Time Tea saw that Zian didn't seem to be faking it.

”Yeah, could it be that I was the only one that felt it?” Zhang Zian was very puzzled because his perception was the slowest compared with the other elfins. He thought that the elfins had also felt it, but were deliberately not doing anything. It turned out, however, that they actually hadn't felt it.

That time, he really wasn't messing around with Fina. From earlier, or more precisely, while he was singing the national anthem, Zian suddenly felt like someone was watching him. An extremely sharp sense enveloped his body and made him feel like there were daggers at his back. It remained until they left. He had planned to talk to the elfins after he was done singing the national anthem, but he was interrupted by the male teacher, so he could only bring it up then.

Because of its long history of trust issues, Fina was still skeptical and suspected that Zhang Zian was deliberately trying to change the subject.

Famous looked at Old Time Tea, then the former sniffed around while the latter leaped and jumped its way up a light pole that was beside them and looked around.

After the flag raising ceremony ended, some people went back to sleep, and some stayed in the parade square to take pictures. There were also those that went off visiting places as they had planned, but there were some people who were late and had just arrived.

Some were coming, some were leaving, and some were staying. It was very chaotic.

When Zhang Zian spoke, he looked around to try and find out who was watching him; however, he was in the midst of a sea of ​​people and he didn't have any specific target, so it wasn't easy.

Old Time Tea looked down from above while Famous slowly ran around, avoiding the crowds. It ran around the vicinity before it returned back to their original spot. The two of them shook their heads one after another, indicating that no suspicious people were found.

Richard also fluttered its wings and flew high. It looked around but also found nothing.

That was to be expected. If there were any obvious suspicious people in the parade square, before Zhang Zian and the elfins did anything, the military officers all over the area would have already invited the suspicious people out to have a cup of tea…

”None of you felt anything?” Zhang Zian confirmed again.

”No.” Famous shook its head and gave a negative answer.

”No. Could it have been a stray cat?” Old Time Tea suggested.

”Impossible. No stray cats can get into the parade square,” Zhang Zian said with certainty.

”Meow, meow, meow! This stinky man. Aren't you being too sensitive? Don't be such a drag all day!” Snowy Lionet unreservedly asked, ”Right, is there any place that sells beef sirloins nearby?”

Was he really being watched by the mysterious Chaoyang Residents?

The sky was up and the land was down… His conscience laid there right smack in the middle! He didn't do anything that was against the law! At most, when Zian was going to visit the Forbidden City later, he was planning to have the elfins enter without a ticket. That plan of his hadn't been put into action yet, though…

Zian slowly turned 360 degrees and his eyes swept across the faces of the nearby people one by one. Since the flag raising ceremony was over, no one was deliberately looking at him. At most, people briefly sweep their glance over him.

The elfins all indicated that they didn't feel anything, and even Zhang Zian himself wondered if he was being over-sensitive.

”Forget it. Whoever wants to watch can just watch. Maybe some fair-skinned, rich beauty has secretly fallen for me.” Zian decided to let it go. He shrugged his shoulders and said, ”There's no choice. It's such a hassle being so handsome. I even wake myself up from being too handsome every morning.”

”Ugly people just like to behave strangely,” Fina said disdainfully.

”Ga ga! Maybe some handsome guy in the honor guard of the three armies has taken a fancy in you!” Richard laughed insidiously and emphasized the word ”in.”

”Meow!” Galaxy raised one of his front paws and stared at it. ”Zian, there's really someone watching you.”

Huh? Zhang Zian never imagined that Galaxy would be the one to prove it for him. In his initial thoughts, if any elfin were to find any evidence that he was being watched, it was certainly going to be either Old Time Tea, Famous, or Fina. The other elfins were also shocked.

”Galaxy, how do you know?” Zian asked.

Galaxy raised its head and looked around with its silver-gray eyes. ”Meow! The person's observation is very strong, so although you're the one being watched, it has affected Galaxy too.”
