District 232

That was a girl of about sixteen years old. Due to the mask on her face, Xia Yu couldn't see the girl's appearance clearly. However, judging from those bright eyes, she should be a beautiful girl.

So, is it a beauty and the beast scenario now?

In this world, where is the tallest building? Is the plane in place?

Distracting his thoughts, Xia Yu looked back at the girl.

The girl slowed her pace when she was about two meters away from him, looking somewhat cautious. After all, Xia Yu was currently a bear, and only someone with a messed up brain would not be afraid at all.

Seeing the girl's careful gaze, Xia Yu mischievously raised his palm suddenly.

The girl immediately retreated back.

However, the palm Xia Yu raised didn't strike her; instead, he placed it on the bear's head, scratching an itch.

Seeing that it was a false alarm, the girl approached again.

This time, when she was less than half a meter away from him, Xia Yu opened his bloody mouth wide.

The girl closed her eyes in horror, ready to accept her fate.

After waiting for a while, the girl who didn't feel any pain opened her eyes and saw Xia Yu, who was yawning as a bear.

The girl blamed herself in her heart for being overly cautious, not knowing that the bear in front was teasing her.

She came to Xia Yu and began to unwrap the bandages, which were actually gauze.

Underneath the gauze was Xia Yu's ferocious wound.

The girl took herbs from the medicine box beside her and bandaged Xia Yu.

Xia Yu sniffed the herbs, which were just ordinary wound ointments and not very useful for bears.

However, the girl's kind intentions and the anesthetic effect of the medicine made Xia Yu feel a sense of happiness being conveyed by the brown bear.

His current addition with the brown bear hadn't even reached a real Lv1 level, so he could only sense relatively obvious or strong emotions.

That is to say, the brown bear really liked the girl in front of him.

Stretching out his bear paw, Xia Yu patted the girl on her head, encouraging her.

After a brief moment of worry, the girl showed a bright smile.

She said one sentence in a language close to Chinese, but differing in pronunciation.

It sounded a bit like a local dialect.

With Language Lv3, Xia Yu quickly learned the origin of this language.

This was the language of Zone 232, a very small zone.

Xia Yu didn't know more information about this zone.

Since the girl spoke the language of Zone 232, Xia Yu's current location should also be Zone 232.

That gave Xia Yu a headache as Zone 232, although small, was still a sovereign zone where the An family and Yu family might not be able to intervene, making the recovery of the brown bear quite challenging.

Nevermind, let's just wait and see for now.

Xia Yu looked back at the girl in front of him.

What the girl said earlier was "Poor thing."

A bear that had been shot could indeed be considered pitiful.

After speaking, the girl didn't make a sound. Tying the gauze, she carefully reached out and touched Xia Yu's ear again.

Xia Yu was very curious about where the girl got the courage to come and touch the bear's ears.

Even the combat-oriented people wouldn't approach a bear without any guard up when encountering one in the wild.

After spending about half an hour with Xiong Yu, the girl stood up, waved to Xiong Yu, and said, "Stay in this cave and don't wander around!" Xia Yu waved his claws to show that he understood.

After letting the girl go for about five minutes, Xia Yu caught up with her based on the scent in the air. An hour later, he finally exited the forest and found himself in a clearing. He stood on a hillside overlooking a small village. The girl was walking down the road in front of the village.

Bears could not enter the village, and Xia Yu did not plan to do so. He carefully circled around the perimeter of the village and found a wooden sign with the village name on it. The village was called Zhongjia Village.

With the name now known, Xia Yu followed a small path that the villagers had trodden down, attempting to find the way out of the forest. However, after an hour's walk, he realized this path was rather long. With his injured leg, he could not continue, so he rested for a while before retracing his steps.

Sitting in the cave, Xia Yu put aside the issue of how to retrieve the bear for now, and instead began to think about how to practice the bear's skills. Strength was simple enough, as lifting weights would suffice. However, endurance was more difficult.

As a bear, should he run a marathon? Maybe push-ups were a good option for the bear? Unable to run marathons or lift weights due to his leg injury, push-ups seemed to be the only viable option left. Xiong Yu proceeded to practice doing push-ups.

Eight hours later, Xia Yu returned to his own body. It was now late at night, and when he checked the skill panel, none of the bear's skills had appeared. He had spent too much time practicing and not enough time on other matters.

Putting that aside, Xia Yu opened his laptop and searched for information about Area 232. Area 232 had a population of nearly two million, with many forests, and the government was a constitutional monarchy.

Although it was a constitutional monarchy, the monarch still managed most of the affairs, essentially making it a country with a monarchical system. The only difference was that the power of the monarch was now reduced.

These details were not the most important to Xia Yu. After quickly scanning the information, he began searching for the most important matter. He searched for Zhongjia Village in Area 232, hoping to find its location. However, he couldn't find any information about this place, whether on maps or forums.

After searching for an hour and even posting questions without success, Xia Yu went back to study the information on Area 232. Area 232 had just experienced a horrific rebellion, leaving the entire royal family dead. A new government was now managing the country, but the people of Area 232 had become accustomed to the existence and leadership of the monarch over a long history, and did not acknowledge the new government without royal blood. The current state of the country was very chaotic.

As the order could not even be maintained, there was no updating of the map either. It was impossible to know the exact location of Zhongjia Village. Xia Yu needed to find a more clear landmark, such as the name of a mountain, or the name of a particular major road, in order to locate the bear and retrieve it.

However, this would have to wait until the day after tomorrow. Today's game opportunity had been used up, and tomorrow was the time for Zhong Yunxin to go to class. He had to log in to An Siyao's place tomorrow to cut off Zhong Yunxin's clothes.

After a night's sleep, at six in the morning, Xia Yu arrived at An Siyao's body.

At seven o'clock, outside Xia Yu's house, Zhong Yunxin happily prepared to get in the car. At this moment, An Siyao's car stopped in front of her.

Seeing An Siyu getting off the car, Zhong Yunxin consciously put down the suitcase in her hand and went back inside to get the suitcase with her regular clothes.

In the car, she sadly said goodbye to her clothes.
