Upon hearing the word "hunter", Shen Yue raises his brows slightly. "It seems Miss Fujiwara not only has a fondness for the stars of her hometown, but also for rural scenery. I wasn't aware there was such a thing as an exceptional hunter."

"Ordinary hunters aren't ranked." Fujiwara Norika assesses, "But one type of hunter is."

"What kind of hunter is that?" Shen Yue inquires curiously.

Turning her head towards Shen Yue, Fujiwara Norika deliberately enunciates: "Bounty hunter!"

Realization dawns on Shen Yue. "So, Miss Fujiwara suspects that I am a bounty hunter?"

This was an extremely legendary occupation. Shen Yue had heard Jin Xin mention it before and had some understanding of it. In ancient times, this would be equivalent to a part-time arresting officer who worked for rewards.

Fujiwara Norika was somewhat doubtful, but seeing Shen Yue's response, she hesitated, "Are you not a bounty hunter, Mr. Shen?"
