Chapter 693 - The relaxed Fatty Luo (1/2)

Everyone was at a loss for words when they heard Luo Lan say that. Could he get any more shameless?

But someone suddenly realized something. “Aren’t there five ladies in total? Did you miss out on counting one of them? The five of them are just enough to form a group.”

Luo Lan was stunned for a bit. Only at this moment did he realize he had left out Yang Xiaojin.

As he knew about Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin’s relationship, he had filtered her out of his mind and did not treat her as a woman!

Luo Lan gave an awkward laugh and said, “Hahaha, I counted wrong.”

“Has Luo Lan always been this thick-skinned?” Yang Xiaojin asked Ren Xiaosu in a low voice while everyone’s attention was on Luo Lan.

Ren Xiaosu lamented, “He’s always been this thick-skinned.”

After all, when Luo Lan tried to recruit Dong Funan to join him, he kept running down to their clinic every day to look for her.

“We should be more careful. Not even ‘Old Xu’ was able to find out what has been loitering around us.” Ren Xiaosu said, “The other party might have some way to avoid Old Xu’s detection. I didn’t even notice anything when those two were killed just now.”

“Mhm.” Yang Xiaojin said, “The Great Hoodwinker and I will be keeping watch tonight. You should have a good night’s rest to conserve your strength. But what’s with that fox? Why are there human organs in its stomach?”

“I’m guessing that it might be following something around to find food for itself. Whatever that thing is, it only cares about killing people. It must have gone away after ripping off the neck of its victim and left the fox to feed on its kill. That was why Luo Lan and his group discovered the corpse with its organs consumed. We had assumed it was done by one creature, but in fact, there were actually two of them. There are many symbiotic relationships in the wilderness and…”

“And what?” Yang Xiaojin asked.

“And if I guessed correctly, the perpetrator might very well be a person, and this fox could be their pet.” Ren Xiaosu frowned and said, “If that’s really the case, it’ll be a little troublesome.”

“Why did you come to such a conclusion?” Yang Xiaojin wondered.

“Did you notice that the fox’s fur is very clean? Like someone’s washed it before? Even for the animals in the wilderness that are particularly clean, they wouldn’t be as clean as this,” Ren Xiaosu explained.

The others might not have noticed this, but how could Ren Xiaosu not notice it when he had been venturing into the wilderness for so long?

If this fox were really someone’s pet, the other party would probably hate him to the bone for using “Old Xu” to kill it. There would be some form of retaliation waiting for them later on.

At this moment, “Old Xu,” who was scouting about one kilometer ahead of the group, suddenly turned around and saw a stone flying at him from out of nowhere in the wilderness.

The stone was extremely fast and hit “Old Xu” in the chest like a bullet, causing it to stumble a little. If a normal person got hit like that, they would probably vomit blood on the spot. Even supernatural beings might not be able to withstand it.

But when “Old Xu” went around to investigate, it could not find the culprit who threw the stone.

Ren Xiaosu’s back was hurting so much he started sweating. “The culprit’s already started taking revenge on Old Xu. But I can’t identify their location yet, so I can’t determine what it really is.”

But at the very least, Ren Xiaosu had guessed something right. The fox was indeed the other party’s pet. Otherwise, they would not be so anxious to take revenge on Old Xu.

“How’s it taking revenge? What did it do?” Yang Xiaojin asked.

“It threw a stone at Old Xu,” Ren Xiaosu replied.
