Chapter 115 Leaving the Company

I met Li Si about six months ago.

Amy began her account of meeting Li Si with this sentence.

“At the time, I was staying at another hotel, which was also owned by my family. There was a particularly beautiful maple forest there, and I would stay there for a period of time every autumn just to admire the beauty of the maple forest.”

As Amy spoke, she also pulled up photos she had taken there on her terminal to show Lin Xiyue.

The photo shows a vast mountain range covered with maple trees. Some of these maple trees are red, while others are golden. Sunlight filters through the gaps in the leaves, creating a breathtaking scene.

In the photo, Amy walks along a forest path strewn with fallen leaves, smiling gently and gracefully at the camera. She bears no resemblance to her current carefree and easygoing self.

"Isn't it beautiful? (?w?)"

Amy was very pleased with herself.

"Yes, the maple forest is beautiful, and you look beautiful in the photo too. (?′▽｀)??"

Lin Xiyue was very accommodating and spoke her true feelings.

Amy was overjoyed to see Lin Xiyue nod and wanted to hold her hand to express her happiness, but Moros stopped her.

She rolled her eyes at Meros before continuing with what happened next.

"When I first saw Li Si, he seemed to be injured. He was curled up in a pile of maple leaves, shivering. He looked so pitiful! I took pity on him and brought him back."

"Huh? Shouldn't we call the police or an ambulance?"

Lin Xiyue expressed her incomprehension. Li Si should be Mo Luosi's brother, so how could Amy, who was a single woman, find an injured man in the wild and take him home? It was simply unbelievable.

This is so unsafe.

Women are already at a physical disadvantage, and if the person is a bad guy, they might not be able to get help even if they cry for help.

Even if they come, if the man says it's a family matter, that one sentence can persuade many people who come to help to leave. Many people, upon hearing it's a family matter or a conflict at home, simply leave without caring. Even if the woman cries and screams, she will be labeled as willful or throwing a tantrum.

"Oh, she wasn't even human back then. I'm not stupid enough to bring a grown man to my place. If I did that, my parents would kill me. Look, this is what he looked like back then."

Amy, with an air of "Don't worry, I'm very careful about safety," showed Lin Xiyue a photo she had taken when she encountered Li Si.

This photo is very artistic.

In the center of the photo is a mound of maple leaves. On this mound of red and gold maple leaves, a parrot with blue-purple feathers lies in the very middle, surrounded by scattered maple leaves.

Warm sunlight streamed through the gaps in the maple trees, creating dappled patterns of light on the parrot. Amy's shadow, as she took the photos, could be seen on the ground and part of the parrot's body.

This scene is particularly warm and beautiful.

This parrot has a bright, deep blue plumage, with a crescent-shaped patch of bare yellow skin near its lower beak and around its eyes. Combined with its deep blue plumage, it resembles a starry sky.

"This, this is a blue macaw?! Isn't that a nationally protected animal?! You?!!"

Lin Xiyue recognized the parrot at a glance because she had seen it in short videos and thought it was very well-behaved and beautiful, so she had specifically looked it up.

That's when I realized how beautiful the parrot's feathers were. Of course, it's a protected animal and private breeding is not allowed.

"Oh, no. The Federation doesn't have such a law. You were probably looking at the one from Red Maple Kingdom, where they seem to be quite strict. Besides, isn't he Li Si? Don't forget. (ノ￣▽￣)"

Seeing Lin Xiyue's shocked expression, Amy quickly explained, not wanting her to misunderstand her.

"Oh, sorry. Please continue. ヽ(o_ _)o"

When Lin Xiyue saw the bird in the photo that looked exactly like a blue macaw, she genuinely forgot for a moment that it was Melos's brother in disguise.

"Oh? How did he become like this? That's a bit strange."

Hearing Lin Xiyue and Amy's discussion, Moros looked up at the photo and noticed something amiss.

"Oh? What did you find? Is there a problem?"

Amy was very curious; she had shown the photo to many people, but no one noticed anything wrong with it.

Oh, of course, she was just saying that she encountered such a blue macaw in the wild and was just showing it off. She certainly couldn't say it was a foreign species, because that would definitely cause panic.

"Here, he is subtly using his energy to observe whether you can pose a threat to him."

Melos lightly tapped the terminal, and the originally warm and cozy picture turned somewhat sinister and terrifying.

The parrot, which had been lying docilely on a pile of maple leaves, suddenly emitted a deep purple mist that was spreading towards the camera lens.

Even through this still photograph, the menacing mist seems ready to burst forth.

"Holy crap! He actually treated me like that?! Tsk, men."

Amy clicked her tongue in displeasure upon seeing the photo.

"Oh, by the way, can this be saved like this? I want to show it to Li Si when he comes back and settle accounts with him."

Amy looked at Meros, and after receiving an affirmative answer from Meros, she put the photo away.

"The food is served. You can eat while I tell you what's going to happen next."

Amy saw that the food had been served and told Lin Xiyue and the others to eat first.

“When I saw Li Si, he looked like this. I thought he was a real animal, so I took him home. Then the next day, he woke up and started talking to me. To be honest, his tone was like that of a haughty idiot.”

Amy's words sounded like she was disgusted, but they were actually tinged with amusement, giving the impression that she was teasing her best friend.

"Hmm, this should be his first time in the human world, so he probably hasn't adapted to life there yet."

Meros nodded, agreeing with Amy's statement, completely forgetting that it was also his first time here.

However, without Lin Xiyue, he probably would never have thought of coming to the human world.

"Yeah, he started by asking me to find him something. Who am I? A notorious rebellious teenager, how could I possibly listen to him! I just poured a glass of water on him, from head to toe. Hehehe (o?▽?)o"

Amy agreed with Melos and even showed them a photo of Li Si looking soaking wet.
