Don't Heal Me

"Hundred Ghosts Night Parade" is a term everyone is familiar with, but Lu Yibai never imagined he'd witness a scene like this "Hundred Cats Night Parade."

In the darkness, cats, one after another, emerged from who knows where, converging towards Lin Xiaoqi.

At this moment, Lin Xiaoqi felt like a patch of catnip to Lu Yibai.

Catnip is a magical substance; for cats, it's like a drug, possessing a fatal attraction.

Most astonishingly, the cats that arrived included both house cats and strays, males and females, kittens and old cats, yet they all sat harmoniously.

Yes, they all sat obediently, as if waiting for orders.

For cat lovers, the area around Qiancheng District Two was practically a dream sanctuary.

Lin Xiaoqi hadn't done anything special, just let out a soft, faint "meow."

What was this?

One arrow, a thousand cats come to meet?

Lu Yibai was starting to suspect that Lin Xiaoqi's true form might be a cat-eared girl.

It wasn't just near Qiancheng District Two; more accurately, most of the stray cats in Wucheng were on the move, as if searching for something.

It was just that the cats near Qiancheng District Two had all come to the scene.

How many stray cats were there in a city?

It was hard to say.

In any small town, which neighborhood didn't have a few stray cats and dogs?

Not to mention, many house cats had secretly slipped out.

And the night was a cat's paradise!

At night, felines had a significant advantage.

Lin Xiaoqi now gave the impression of mobilizing the masses, though Lu Yibai had no idea how she managed it.

Perhaps many animals were more spiritual than humans imagined.

At this moment, the cats, sitting in neat rows, began to meow in sequence.

From left to right, they meowed one after another.

After the first cat on the left meowed a few times, the second one immediately followed.

It was like they were reporting to a leader.

Lin Xiaoqi sat cross-legged on the ground, listening intently, nodding occasionally.

It looked as if she understood them.

However, it seemed she really did understand...

After each cat finished reporting, it quietly left, as if nothing had happened.

The way they acted, it was as if they had been trained.

It gave the impression that in the dark world of this city, there was a cat boss controlling everything...

"Boss, we have a general direction!" After a while, Lin Xiaoqi looked up and said to Lu Yibai.

The cats dispersed in all directions, and Lu Yibai and Lin Xiaoqi once again got on the motorcycle.

The black motorcycle roared through the night. Those who didn't know might think it was some fearless man and woman out seeking thrills late at night.

Lu Yibai had a driver's license and knew how to drive, but he didn't know how to ride a motorcycle; he could ride an electric scooter.

Lin Xiaoqi's motorcycle skills were already quite superb. Of course, it would have been even better if she had tied up her hair first.

Her flowing black hair whipped Lu Yibai in the face, making him afraid to speak, lest he accidentally swallow a mouthful of hair.

Fortunately, her hair was clean and smelled quite nice.

Alright, Lu Yibai's thoughts were starting to wander again.

Just like before, Lu Yibai was too self-conscious. Although he felt like he was about to be thrown off during the turns, he insisted on not wrapping his arms around Lin Xiaoqi's slender waist.

He wanted to show his employees that their boss was a gentleman.

Soon, the motorcycle arrived at a small alley, where a white cat was already waiting. It then ran off quickly, leading Lu Yibai and the others forward.

After running for a short while, a small orange cat was waiting at the spot.

They had all witnessed parts of the Illusion Demon's journey.

One by one, the cats acted like a relay, guiding Lu Yibai and Lin Xiaoqi.

Soon, Lu Yibai arrived at a place that looked very familiar.

Damn it, wasn't this the bar where he found Ye Yiyi? The most popular "Trouble Bar" in Wucheng!

He had met Ye Yiyi here when she was playing dress-up. Back then, she was pretending to be "dead" outside the bar.

The doors of the three-star hotel across the street were wide open, as if saying, "Hey kid, coming back?"

"Boss, it should be inside here," Lin Xiaoqi pointed at the bar and said.

This bar was called the Celebrity Bar, the busiest and most popular bar in Wucheng.

The parking lot outside was filled with luxury cars. Compared to them, Lu Yibai's Answer Bar, while doing decent business, was definitely not as popular as the Celebrity Bar.

However, they were going down different paths. Lu Yibai didn't like going to noisy bars, nor did he enjoy dancing at wellness clubs.

It was already November in Wucheng, yet many women were wearing dark, hip-hugging skirts, casually throwing on a jacket over them as they entered and exited the bar.

Lu Yibai felt it was quite unnecessary. Lin Xiaoqi was bundled up tightly, but her curvy figure was still perfectly displayed.

Wearing so little only made it easier for others to touch her inappropriately.

Speaking of which, weren't they cold?

But to be honest, this Illusion Demon was very clever.

At night, the Celebrity Bar was indeed a good hiding place.

Don't think demons don't go to bars.

Demons are much more energetic at night than during the day. Many demons who have integrated into human society are definitely the main patrons of bars.

And demons with messy private lives, like Night Demons, might even be working there.

If you were the only demon among a crowd of humans, it would be like being the only bald person in a crowd of people with hair – too obvious.

But since there were quite a few demons here, blending in with the demon crowd wouldn't make one stand out.

Who would have thought that after going in circles, they'd end up here?

Lu Yibai glanced back at Lin Xiaoqi. Her condition didn't seem very good.

To be precise, her physical condition was still excellent; she could probably kill a cow with one punch. However, her mental state was a bit off.

It was as if she hadn't slept for days.

It was clear that the Hundred Ghosts Night Parade had taken a toll on her.

Furthermore, Lin Xiaoqi wasn't suitable for going inside.

She was too strong and too famous.

Many demons who lived in Wucheng long-term had encountered her before and would recognize her.

If she were in her usual state, Lin Xiaoqi could hide her Night Watchman aura, but her current mental state was poor, making it impossible to be completely foolproof.

If she went in, it might cause a commotion and alert the Illusion Demon.

Lu Yibai, on the other hand, was different.

He was weak enough…

Lin Xiaoqi was like a bonfire; you could feel the heat wave from a distance.

Lu Yibai was like a lit matchstick…

Moreover, "Menstrual Pain" was a Body Refining technique, so its energy aura wasn't particularly strong. Unless they were very close, demons wouldn't be able to sense him for a while.

"I'll go in and take a look first," Lu Yibai said.

Lin Xiaoqi nodded and said, "Boss, be careful."

Lu Yibai: "..."

The last time he went out for a bike ride, Lin Xiaoqi had also told him to be careful, and then, Boss Lu had encountered his first demon after joining the Night Watchmen – Ye Yiyi.

Please don't jinx me again. Every time you tell me to be careful, something happens!
