Chapter 54 Go to District Ten

Happiness controlled herself. She could cry because of pain, cry because of being spoiled and crying, she could have all kinds of reasons to cry, but she couldn't cry out in pain when the beasts couldn't protect her and had to send her away. She couldn't just focus on venting her emotions and hurting the self-esteem of creatures like Alexander. After all, life was her own responsibility. She had no reason to attach her life to Alexander and let them bear all the negatives while she enjoyed the results.

 

Since she had already come to this world and was ready to live happily, she had to accept the rules of this beast world. Even in the human society before crossing, there was no absolute fairness and reason to talk about. Compared to before, the world of the beast race was much cleaner.

 

So Happiness washed her face, wiped off the water droplets with her sleeve, and turned around to walk towards the group of beasts that had been watching her. Maybe it was because of being washed with clean water, maybe it was because she had gained courage and responsibility in her heart, maybe it was because she had become strong for the animals she wanted to protect, her usually gentle and gentle eyes were like springs illuminated by the afternoon sun, appearing exceptionally clear and bright, so touching. She even showed a small smile. The beasts were a little surprised. They originally thought this little girl would hold onto the Ben or cry out loudly for Alexander, and refuse to be taken to District Ten.

 

Happiness sat back among the group of beasts and started eating lunch again, picking up the warm sweet soup made by Eugene in a large cup and taking a sip, sending the delicious clam meat into her stomach. With delicious food and the people she valued around her, what could be better than now? The past cannot be changed, the future cannot be predicted, as long as she has hope for life, she can live happily no matter what.

 

"Go meet the leader of the beast race!" Happiness pinched a piece of fried meat and said while eating, "Hehe, after all, I'm an outsider. It's not a good thing to always hide. Actually, I've wanted to reveal my identity for a long time. This way, I won't have to use Ben's ID to sign contracts with the finish line."

 

Happiness's attitude eased the entire tense atmosphere. Ben wiped off the oil juice at the corner of Happiness's mouth and smiled unnaturally, "Happiness, I received an email yesterday. A publishing house wants to publish your book." Road's strength was only considered average among the dog race. He used to love his own race, but facing the situation where Happiness was about to be taken away by a stronger person, he unexpectedly hoped to be born as a tiger. If he could stand at the top of the world, he could naturally let Happiness live the life she truly wanted.

 

"Really?" Happiness looked excited, "Can I be published? It's unbelievable. When I first came, I couldn't even speak, haha!"

 

Andy hesitated for a moment. He had been struggling for so long and hadn't even reached a hundred thousand clicks, and now, Happiness, an illiterate outsider, had been noticed by a publisher after only a few days of writing. It made him feel helpless.

 

"Happiness, what kind of book did you write?" Bern asked.

 

"The Only One of the Interdimensional Travelers..." Happiness lowered her head with embarrassment. She felt sorry for such a thunderous name!

 

"... " Bern was silent for a few seconds, "Are you snow?"

 

When Happiness heard him ask like this, she immediately reacted, "Ah! Bern, you are Da Bai?!" Among her few online friends, she only told baymax about writing books and gave him the link... At that time, Da Bai even said that the title was too cliche...

 

"Yes." Bern nodded and gently touched Happiness's head, "No wonder I always felt that you spoke strangely, not like a beast."

"baymax, you are the first internet friend I made when I just learned how to go online," Happiness said with emotion, "When I saw your tiger appearance, I felt familiar. Is your profile picture really you? I thought all white tigers had blue eyes."

 

Neither of them expected that they had such a deep connection. They felt closer to each other instantly. They talked about online and offline matters, and Bern even explained why he ended up in District 2 and accidentally saved her.

 

Among the beasts present, including the African lion investigator, Brooke, no one was naturally superior to the Bengal tiger, Bern. Although Happiness and Bern hadn't known each other for long, they got along well and became quite close. This made the beasts, who were already worried, even more concerned. If Fran wasn't stupid, he definitely wouldn't abuse Happiness in any way or force her to mate with him, causing her serious injury. Happiness had an optimistic and cheerful personality. Whoever treated her well, she would treat them well too. If she were to fall in love with the Siberian tiger, Fran...

 

"Your world is really amazing. Before I traveled through time, I could never have imagined that one day I would go on an adventure in the sea with a tiger, haha," Happiness patted Bern's arm.

 

"Happiness, not all tigers are as easygoing as me. You think I'm easy to get along with, but Fran may not be. When you reach District 10, be cautious and don't touch him casually or get too close to him," Bern reminded Happiness, which happened to be what Alexander wanted to say.

 

"Ahem..." Brooke coughed. As an official person, he felt somewhat displeased hearing Bern say that. "I think that's enough. Let's set off and return to District 10 before it gets extremely cold. The members of the canine, wolf, and leopard tribes, you need to be ready for investigation until we reach a final conclusion. It's best not to leave District 10."

 

"Bern, I know," Happiness's smile disappeared from her face. She ignored Brooke and instead moved her bottom to sit back among the beasts, hugging Alexander and Damian's arms. She said, "Alexander, Damian, Abyssyus, Ben, Eliot, Andy, you can rest assured that I will protect myself and strive for legal status. Then we can live together. No matter what, no matter where I am, I will always think of you. I'm not afraid of investigations... even if it goes to court. You have been so good to me. There is no better animal in this world than all of you. Even though Fran is the leader, he still has to be reasonable." As she spoke, she glanced at Brooke.

 

"Mhm," Abyssyus twitched his mouth, bitter and sour. "I have a house in District 10, and it's quite big. After sending Happiness away, you can come stay with me first."

 

"Is the housing price in District 10 high?" Lin Xiao Yue considerately found a topic. Alexander and Damian weren't fools, and they naturally understood her delicate and warm intentions. She didn't have sharp fangs, only a small body and delicate arms, yet she dared to bear everything alone and tried to protect the beasts who had indeed hidden her. If before, Damian's desire for Happiness was mainly physical, now the fierce wolf felt a sour ache and a lingering warmth deep in his heart for the first time. He held Happiness tightly, and there was no reaction in his lower abdomen. He didn't grope or kiss Happiness. He touched his face to Happiness's and bumped noses with her. This was a sacred ritual for a wild wolf to accept and recognize a companion. Damian suddenly felt that whether they mated or not was not so important. With such a weak yet strong little girl who was so carefully protecting him, he was already the happiest wolf in the world.

"Happiness, I will always be thinking of you, don't worry. Until we have a result, we won't leave District Ten." Alexander hugged Happiness and said, "We live in a civilized society, not a primitive tribe. Don't worry too much. If, if Fran wants to do something to you, hide if you can. If not...go along with him, but prioritize your own safety."

 

Brooke was a little angry, "Don't think so negatively about the higher-ups. Once this human girl verifies her identity, we will naturally give her a good life."

 

"Hehe, I'm not worried. Doesn't your law have provisions to protect female beasts?" Happiness said.

 

"Surely?!" A non-harmonious voice came from the entrance. "Why are there so many people?! Did something happen?"

 

Vincent stood at the entrance, carrying a super large octopus on his shoulder, looking incredulously at the group of people by the campfire.

 

Bern stood up and walked towards Vincent. After taking the octopus from him, he apologetically said, "Vincent, I'm really sorry. I'm leaving here with Happiness."

 

A disappointed look appeared in Vincent's pale red eyes. His shoulders drooped weakly, and he flicked his tail as he swam towards the water pool to clean the ink on his shoulders and hands. He hadn't swam far when he turned back and said, "You mean, you're leaving immediately?"

 

"Yes." Bern nodded. He thought about how the sea tribe lived alone on this island and it wasn't easy to encounter two creatures who could talk. He didn't expect that just when he was happy for a day, he would face separation. It was quite heart-wrenching for him.

 

Vincent hung his head in dejection, splashing water at the side of the pool. The group of male beasts saw that he was speaking strangely and had an innocent expression on his face, and the sadness was written on his handsome face. They didn't approach him to strike up a conversation, but they all curiously looked at this human-shaped sea python that rarely appeared on the mainland.

 

"Vincent, why not come with me to District Ten?" Burn stepped forward and patted the silver python's shoulder, persuading, "I know your sea tribe doesn't like to set foot on the mainland, but it would be good to come and play with me. Whenever you want to go back, I'll send you back and get you some things to communicate with the outside world, alright?"

 

Happiness also looked expectantly at Vincent. The silver python first froze, then his eyes became shining, and he punched his palm in excitement, saying, "That's right! I can go with you! I also wanted to vent last year, but I just didn't know the way!"

 

After saying that, Vincent's snake tail shimmered with silver light, and he instantly transformed into two smooth legs. He tried to take a few shaky steps and laughed, "I almost forgot how to walk."

 

"..." Happiness looked at Vincent's magnificent figure, his drooping two plus four eggs, and felt a bit awkward, even the sorrow was lessened a bit...
