Yama Reborn-Chapter 536 - 533: Fox’s Path to Making Money

Chapter 533 [Fox’s Path to Wealth]

"Seed is going to a relatively distant place to take care of some things, so..."

"Don’t lie to me, I’m not a three-year-old!"

"True, you’re not three years old, you’re a teen." Chen Nuo laughed.

Fox’s eyes sparkled with annoyed flares: "It’s not like I’ve never traveled far with Seed. He has the ability to tear open space. No matter how far away a place is in this world, he can just wave his hand and be there! So the excuse of traveling far doesn’t work on me."

"Alright." Chen Nuo thought for a moment: "In fact, it’s just a metaphor; he is indeed in a place far away, but for certain special reasons, he can’t come back for a while. That’s why he asked me to..."

"Is he in danger?" Fox interrupted Chen Nuo.

"No." Chen Nuo replied immediately: "You know him well, in this world, there’s practically nothing that could threaten him."

"Is he in big trouble then? When will he return?"

Seeing the concern in the girl’s eyes, Chen Nuo suddenly hesitated.

If I say... it could be hundreds of days or hundreds of years...

Fox would probably burst into tears right here.

Chen Nuo knew Fox’s personality well.

So Chen Nuo chose his words carefully: "I don’t know the exact time either—he’s not sure himself. But one thing is certain, he will return, and he’ll make every effort to come back as soon as possible. I believe it won’t be too long."

Hope in Fox’s eyes slowly vanished. The girl bowed her head, thought for a moment, nodded with a seemingly indifferent, yet slightly sad tone: "Alright... at least this time he kept our promise, didn’t leave without saying goodbye, and when he left, he said goodbye to me. After leaving, he was worried I’d be concerned, so he sent you to deliver a message."

Saying this, Fox looked up at Chen Nuo: "Well, Mr. Jerk, I’ve received your message. Is there anything else?"

"Uh... actually, you don’t have to call me that." Chen Nuo rubbed his nose.

"I don’t like you, seeing a jerk annoys me, isn’t it okay?" Fox spoke bluntly.

Hey! Last life you did not treat me like this!

Chen Nuo felt a bit speechless...

Okay.

This really broke Lord Yama’s defenses a bit.

The loyal little fox from the last life, smart and adorable, so cute it made your nose bleed!

And now? Calling me a jerk to my face, and looking at me with such indifference, saying "I don’t like you."

It’s a bit depressing.

As if something precious of mine was stolen by that jerk Seed.

For a moment, Chen Xiaoguo suddenly empathized a bit with Sun Keke’s father, Old Sun.

Like what?

The little cotton-padded jacket close to my heart is turning its elbow outwards.

Not the most accurate, but that’s the idea.

"Uh, actually, I have something else that Seed wanted me to do: to see if you’ve been doing well this year, and if there’s any trouble or issues, I can help solve it..."

"No need." Fox’s attitude was very cold: "You should imagine that I’m also an ability user, and my strength isn’t weak. I haven’t encountered any trouble, and even if I did, I could solve it myself."

After thinking for a moment, Chen Nuo decided to let go.

Although I really miss the fox from the last life... in this life, she already has her own life.

And because of Seed’s involvement, she didn’t suffer the tragic fate from the last life.

I might as well let go.

He slowly got off the swing, stood up.

"Well then, I’ll stay here for a few days. I know your phone number; Seed gave it to me. I’ll send you a number later, if you encounter any problems, you can call me, and I’ll help you out."

"No need." Fox coldly said: "I can deal with all the troubles in my life myself."

Okay, Chen Nuo stood up.

I’ve seen all those crazy kids from my last life in this life.

The coldest one towards me is probably this little fox here.

But the one living the freest life is probably her.

"Whether you need it or not, I’ll send you the phone number; whether you call is your choice. I’m just fulfilling Seed’s instruction."

After Chen Nuo finished speaking, he waved his hand and smiled: "Then, I’ll take my leave."

Fox watched the chubby man pant heavily while leaving.

She even watched him walk far, turn the corner, disappearing from sight, then the vigilance in her eyes finally faded.

Humph... just doesn’t look like a good person!

That smile, so bizarre.

That smile, when on Seed’s face, gives a sense of closeness; when it’s on the chubby man’s face, it makes you...

Really want to punch him!

·

Farewell then, little fox.

Chen Yanluo felt a bit sad along the way.

However... at this moment, Chen Nuo didn’t expect that he would so quickly meet the little fox again!

In less than... eight hours.

·

That night, back at the hotel, Chen Nuo showered, ate, and then called home.

He decided to stay here for three more days... because he had already asked Vanel to help find some local "old friends" to investigate Fox’s family living situation and her mother’s work situation.

If there are any difficulties and troubles, solve them quietly before leaving.

Three days should be enough.

That night, after calling home, Chen Nuo was too lazy to find Vanel to play games and instead watched TV idly in his room.

Spanish TV shows... watching the characters speak felt like listening to a machine gun.

Late at night, Chen Nuo could hear sounds from the room next door.

Well...

That punk Vanel!

Probably got tired of playing games, so he’s... playing something else in the middle of the night?

I can only say...

Old Russians do have good stamina.

The noises next door lasted for quite a while, and surely, the partner playing games with him was very satisfied with the Bear Warrior’s performance, praised with exclamations like "Oh, God" and such.

Chen Nuo was quite displeased with his lost abilities... he couldn’t even use spiritual power to block the sound.

Plus, the sound isolation in this hotel was indeed lacking a bit.

However... just as Chen Nuo was about to get up and knock on the door...

Bam!!

A loud noise suddenly came from next door!

Chen Nuo immediately sat up on the bed.

What’s going on?

Vanel... did he collapse the bed?

No!

Chen Nuo frowned, the noise sounded more like someone broke into the room next door!

Soon followed by Vanel’s roar...

·

When Chen Nuo hurriedly rushed out of his room to the door next door, he saw a surprising scene!

With a bang, the window in the room was smashed, a figure was hammered and sent flying out!

Flying out the window was our dear Davarishi!

Standing at the window, still swinging a fist, was...

The little fox he just met that afternoon!!

And on the bed was a woman barely wearing anything... with big wavy curls and flaming red lips.

Clearly frightened out of her wits.

Fox casually gestured, and the woman about to scream closed her mouth promptly, unable to make a sound no matter how hard she tried.

"Don’t be afraid, I’m not hurting anyone, just here to rob your client a bit for pocket money."

Said the little fox, and with a whoosh, jumped out of the broken window!

Chen Nuo stood at the door, holding his face in his hands with force!

This is what you mean by... no trouble in your life?

You’re not facing trouble, you’re causing trouble yourself!!!

And then, robbing clients for pocket money?

Robbing clients, really?

What sort of shameless person would do something like robbing clients?

And way too unprofessional! Didn’t even bother to cover your face!

If it were me, I’d at least wear a motorcycle helmet!

·

Rushing quickly into the room and passing by the bed, Chen Nuo kindly picked up the blanket on the floor and threw it over the woman.

Hmm, it’s big, but the shape is not great, very techy.

Fuck! What the hell am I thinking!

Rushing to the window, looking down...

The hotel is not tall, only six floors.

With Chen Nuo’s vision, he can see two figures fighting in the parking lot below.

Alright, calling it a fight is not entirely accurate.

The accurate description is...

Vanel just got up from the ground and was immediately tackled by Fox; his tiny body kicked up, and the Bear Warrior was already down.

Next, Vanel held his head and got hammered.

Chen Nuo was stunned!

Little Fox... is this ferocious?

·

Fox’s mood was actually quite good.

First, she received news from Seed today.

Second, an unexpected surprise happened during tonight’s "hunt"; the john turned out to be an Ability User!

What a good thing!

An Ability User means a fatter wallet, more pocket money to grab.

Just as Fox was pondering how to beat this guy into submission and make him obediently hand over money.

A bang sounded behind!

Fox turned and saw a mountain of muscle falling from the hotel, landing on the empty spot in the parking lot behind.

As the mountain struggled to get up, Fox immediately recognized him—precisely that scumbag who came looking for her in the afternoon.

"Uh..." Chen Nuo smiled wryly, waving as he walked over: "I mean no harm. Although I don’t know how my friend offended you... what I want to tell you is, he is my friend, and he also knows Seed, so he counts as Seed’s friend."

Fox was stunned.

The girl’s clenched fists instantly relaxed.

Seed’s... friend?

This is... troublesome!!

The things she’s doing, Seed never liked her doing while he was around.

Well... if it were a stranger, then just rob him, since Seed isn’t home anyway. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

But... Seed’s friend?

What if he tells Seed...

Would Seed be angry? Disappointed? Would he... punish her?

Or...

Silence him?

After all, johns are surely not good people!

...Uh... forget it, Seed’s friend, can’t silence.

But... give him a good thrashing to warn him to shut up?

Chen Nuo squinted at the Little Fox in front of him.

Based on past life knowledge, Chen Nuo could roughly tell the Little Fox was currently in a dilemma.

"Although I don’t know how my friend offended you..."

"Sukabule! I didn’t offend this guy! I was minding my business in the room; she kicked the door open and burst in! I swear I never provoked her!"

Davarishi grumbled from the ground, and obviously, the poor Davarishi had been badly beaten, speaking with a bit of air loss.

Chen Nuo frowned: "Fox, can you tell me what’s going on here?"

Fox lowered her fists, listened attentively, and the girl’s expression became calm, slowly saying: "Let’s talk somewhere else. Someone in the hotel must have called the police; although the cops here are notoriously slow, they’ll come eventually... didn’t you say you don’t want me to cause trouble?"

Chen Nuo: "..."

Fox’s tone was very calm: "Take your friends and leave, go out from here, walk past a block, there’s a park at the corner. We’ll meet there."

Chen Nuo: "What about you?"

Fox pointed upstairs: "I’ll go get the woman in that room, don’t worry, I have ways to make sure she won’t tell the cops. This isn’t my first time doing this."

Chen Nuo rolled his eyes: If you say it’s your first time, I wouldn’t believe it.

·

Half an hour later, at the meeting spot Fox specified.

Fox had a bit of conscience; when she came, she brought a bag of medication for external wounds.

"You can disinfect the wound, bandage it, and when you get back, apply a cold compress." Fox threw the medicine bag to Chen Nuo: "As for the woman, I’ve taken care of her; even her pimp fears me and will warn her not to speak casually.

As for the police issue... the security here wasn’t good to begin with. It’ll be treated as a personal vendetta, but as long as there’s no casualty, it won’t cause a big stir. But... when you return to the hotel, the police will surely ask you questions. If you want to avoid trouble, prepare some cash and slip it sneakily—cops here love it."

Chen Nuo rubbed his brow: "So seasoned, this clearly isn’t your first time doing this. What is this? Black on black?"

"Just bored, don’t want to ask my mom for pocket money."

Chen Nuo: Kids these days, getting pocket money really fiercely?

"...So I figured out a money-making trick. Took some time, harshly taught the pimps around here a lesson, then familiarized myself with their business. Even made some small equipment myself to eavesdrop on their calls... Like tonight.

Your friend, called a pimp, got a woman to come to the hotel, I could eavesdrop on it all.

Then, I go up, rob some money for fun.

Johns are very timid, not honorable, many don’t report it if robbed, minimal hassle."

Chen Nuo looked at the Little Fox before him...

Suddenly, he felt a strange illusion.

What can I say...

Such a dog-like behavior...

No matter how you look at it, it seems like it was taught by me!!

"Are you short on money?" Chen Nuo frowned.

"Not really." Fox’s indifferent expression and tone: "Just a bit bored, finding something to occupy myself. Seed typically doesn’t allow me to use abilities recklessly, and my mom doesn’t know; she’d worry."

"So... teenage rebellion?" Chen Nuo laughed.

"It’s actually none of your concern, right?" Fox squinted at Chen Nuo: "So, just pretend tonight never happened, you didn’t see it, okay? I can compensate your friend’s injury."

"You’re really afraid of Seed finding out about this?" Chen Nuo immediately seized on the girl’s weak spot.

"...Seed forbids these actions. If it’s merely for money, there’s much easier ways... Like, bank vault doors can’t stop me." Fox spoke frankly: "Alternatively, find a few gangsters and rob their safe."

Chen Nuo suddenly felt, this girl ended up partnering with me last lifetime because... we’re really birds of a feather!

Saying that, Fox looked a bit impatient, glancing at Chen Nuo, then Vanel: "Let’s just talk about solving it. I can apologize to your friend, and am willing to compensate. Name a number."

Chen Nuo sighed...

He finally understood why Seed entrusted him to find Fox.

This girl’s status is indeed slightly dangerous and concerning.

Simply put, it might be due to having someone like Seed, an invincible god-like protector, around for too long.

Plus, Little Fox is an Ability User herself.

Moreover, she’s in her adolescence rebellion phase.

This kid seems to be rebelling a bit too much, with a reckless arrogance.

Her behavior shows a disregard for societal rules, too indifferent to them.

Boldly fearless attitude.

"Are you rich?" Chen Nuo smiled.

"A bit."

"Well then, one million US Dollars! You compensate, my friend and I keep quiet, and won’t mention this to Seed?"

Fox agreed straightforwardly: "Deal!"

So wealthy? Little girl, have you robbed many safes?!

Chen Nuo looked at Fox with mixed feelings.

Seeing Fox’s relieved expression, Chen Nuo suddenly asked out of the blue: "Is your ID level at the Octopus Monster’s Black Iron?"

"Silver..." Fox blurted out and then suddenly glared at Chen Nuo, turning red: "You tricked me!"

Chen Nuo sighed.

Dammit!

Agreeing to a million US Dollars without batting an eye.

With this girl just robbing johns? How many would she have to rob to make a million US Dollars?

She must have other ways to earn money.

For an Ability User, making money, where else could be faster than accepting commissions on the Octopus Monster website?

However...

Silver level?

This girl, she’s not weak!

Hmm, I wonder what the Octopus Monster would react if they found out about this.

Seed clearly doesn’t want this Little Fox interacting with the Ability User world.

If he knew the little girl secretly went to the Octopus Monster website to make money...

Seed would probably go and burn the Octopus Monster’s headquarters down!
