477 It Talked! (1/2)

Yan Biao and Zuo Yu were thinking, This thing can really act!

It just ate a mecha and is now acting so weak! Who are you trying to fool?!

Can you be more self-conscious of being an apex predator!

We didn't even cry when we were totally horrified. You are a dog who just ate a mecha. What are you doing crying over here? What is there to cry about?! So fake!!

They really couldn't understand how this dog could suddenly be crying like this.

Maybe it was a form of disguise?

How scheming!

The two of them observed Fang Zhao's reaction and tried guessing how likely it was that Fang Zhao knew the truth.

Fang Zhao rubbed Curly Hair's head and glanced at Nanfeng. ”You go out first.”

”Oh, okay. Then, I will go see if the soup is ready, Boss.”

Nanfeng guessed that the boss wanted to speak with Yan Biao and Zuo Yu. Perhaps he was about to reprimand them. Was he going to deduct their salaries?

Nanfeng shot the other two a ”you guys better reflect” look and hastily exited the ward. He closed the door gently and considerately hung the ”do not disturb” sign.

The ward fell quiet. Only the sounds of Curly Hair's sobs and pants remained.

Yan Biao and Zuo Yu stood anxiously waiting for Fang Zhao to speak. They were still waiting for Planet Yin's side to deal with them with regards to the matter of the mecha's disappearance. However, they still had to inform Fang Zhao first. But, they didn't know how to put it in words. The ward wasn't a good place to talk either.

Fang Zhao didn't immediately ask about what had happened. Instead, he glanced at the two bodyguards before turning his gaze to the miserable Curly Hair. He reached out and pulled Curly Hair's mouth open to examine his teeth.

Yan Biao and Zuo Yu closely watched Fang Zhao's actions.

There were still some metal fragments stuck to Curly Hair's teeth.

”What did you eat now?” Fang Zhao patted Curly Hair's head. ”Lick the remains clean.”

Yan Biao and Zuo Yu: ”???”

How can the boss say such a thing so calmly?!

Boss, open your eyes wide! Those remains are metal! Metal!!

Curly Hair paused his crying, stuck out his tongue and licked his teeth. He opened his mouth and showed it to Fang Zhao. It was clean this time.

”Mmhm.” Fang Zhao nodded.

Curly Hair tilted his head, lay down and continued crying.

Yan Biao and Zuo Yu: ”…”

The evidence had been erased!

Nobody would even know or think about such a thing!!

How many times had they practiced such a tacit understanding?!

They didn't believe that this dog had always been obediently eating dog food!

It was all fake!

Everything was a disguise!

Surely, that dog had preyed upon many other things!

Including living things!

The two of them were originally thinking about how to mention the matter of the mecha to Fang Zhao, but now, they stared at the ground when Fang Zhao's gaze fell on them.

They were panicking inside.

Bodyguards that knew too much either became trusted aides or forever kept their silence. A choice always had to be made.

Now, Yan Biao and Zuo Yu felt confronted with the most crucial occupational crisis in their life: Continue walking the dog, or be eaten.

At this moment, Fang Zhao's communications device rang.

It was one of the high ranking Planet Yin officers who had visited Fang Zhao in the ward earlier.

”You can go ahead and arrange for your discharge. However, you have to ensure your communications device is with you at all times. We must still have a chat before you leave Planet Yin. Also, do not tell anybody else about what happened. You can handle your assistant and bodyguards.”

Fang Zhao wasn't too surprised and gave his acknowledgement before ending the call.

This matter had happened way too abruptly. Some things couldn't be hidden, like Curly Hair's abnormalities.

Actually, Fang Zhao knew that certain people were already privy to his and Curly Hair's changes. Things had only remained as long as it had because most weren't aware of them.

The Inter-planetary Fund…

Nanfeng returned carrying a flask of nourishing soup. However, he was standing outside and didn't enter because he was afraid of interrupting the conversation in the room.

Fang Zhao heard his footsteps and called out, ”Nanfeng!”

”Here! Boss, what are your instructions?” Nanfeng opened the door and entered.

”Go arrange the discharge procedures.”

”Boss, your injury?”

”I'm fine already.”

”Eh! I will go right away!”

Nanfeng nimbly poured Fang Zhao the bowl of soup and headed out to handle the discharge procedures.

Fang Zhao then turned to the other two who had been silent all these time. ”Go get a car.”

”Yes!” The two tense bodyguards marched out with heavy footsteps.

The inspection team captain was about to knock on the door when it opened. Seeing Yan Biao and Zuo Yu, he raised an eyebrow and eyed them with a ”I already see through you two” kind of look.

The inspection team captain chuckled. ”Go on. Do you not want to leave? How about coming over to our place for some tea and buns?”

”No, no thanks. Please come in.”

The two moved aside and looked towards Fang Zhao.

Fang Zhao indicated for them to continue with their task so the two bodyguards left.

The door was closed and the inspection team captain joked, ”Your two bodyguards are quite loyal.”
