Chapter Summary: "Best Friends"

Key Plot Points

• Peaceful night at the Linjiang old residence; the Gargoyle stands guard from a tree
• Pipi (the parrot) is now telling fairy tales—specifically The Little Mermaid—to entertain Bao'er before bed
• Taike (the dog) grows jealous of Pipi's newfound storytelling ability and fantasizes about killing and eating the parrot
• Pipi flies to Bao'er for protection; Bao'er scolds Taike, who sulks and threatens to run away from home
• Bao'er comforts Taike, embracing him and promising they will always be best friends; she makes him promise not to bully Pipi
• Zuo Yi checks on Bao'er, gently allowing Taike to stay on the bed, and says goodnight
• In his study, Zuo Yi examines his "newcomer benefit package" from the Superhuman Administration: two IDs (special consultant and law enforcement certificates) and a special smartphone. He completes setup and reads through the phone's functions
• Author's note at chapter end thanks readers for subscription support and asks whether they prefer updates spread throughout the day or three consecutive at night

Character Developments

• Pipi: Taught itself storytelling skills to win Bao'er's affection; shows cunning (practicing smiles, feigning reluctance to continue the story) but understands its limits after Taike's threat
• Taike: Displays insecurity and jealousy over losing Bao'er's attention; reveals its gluttonous nature through vivid daydreams of "crispy, crunchy chicken flavor"; ultimately relents to Bao'er's request for peace
• Bao'er: Shows emotional maturity and empathy—she perceives Taike's feelings through their heart connection, comforts him, and negotiates a promise without favoring one pet entirely
• Zuo Yi: Portrayed as a gentle, understanding father; comfortable with supernatural elements (Taike being a Transcendent species, cleanliness notwithstanding) and continues building his official role with the Superhuman Administration

Significant Themes

• Friendship and loyalty: The central theme—Bao'er's declaration that she and Taike will "always, always be best friends" anchors the chapter
• Jealousy and competition for affection: Taike vs. Pipi mirrors sibling rivalry; each pet strategizes to secure Bao'er's love
• Family warmth and domestic peace: The quiet, cozy domestic scene contrasts with the wider supernatural world Zuo Yi inhabits
• Innocence and moral negotiation: Bao'er resolves conflict not through force but through affection and gentle agreements

Character Interactions

• Bao'er ↔ Pipi: Storytelling bonding; Pipi seeks refuge in her arms when afraid
• Taike ↔ Pipi: Antagonistic friction—Taike's murderous thoughts vs. Pipi's genuine fear (Pipi's accusation is "not a false accusation" since Bao'er can see Taike's mind)
• Bao'er ↔ Taike: The emotional core—her embrace, his enthusiastic response, and their mutual vow of friendship
• Zuo Yi ↔ Bao'er: Brief, warm father-daughter exchange; he notices the noise but responds with kindness rather than discipline
