"An unexpected development. Now this is interesting."
Xiao Yu murmured to himself inwardly.
He had found the source of the illness easily and without a hitch.

Fortunately, the woman seemed rather adorably dim. Although she had summoned a strange little dog, it did not seem like some utterly evil creature that went around biting people, and it could not spread, either.
