At that moment, Su Zijun called from the medical room, “Next one, come in! don’t waste my time!”
After hearing this, Uncle Mouse Monster quivered and said subconsciously, “Well, I suddenly thought of something I have to do. I won’t have time to receive the medical examination!”
He waved his hand while retreating until reaching the back door and escaped quickly.
“Hey! Uncle Mouse! You forgot to take your wife’s medicine!” Luo Dance shouted at back.
“I’ll come later!” Uncle Mouse Monster didn’t look back.
No one dared to remain behind for fear of losing more blood!
Uncle Mouse Monster didn’t think he had enough blood for supporting that Hanba. Even if she was a half Hanba.
…
…
“Dad, you came back!”
Mouse Monster returned to his comfortable home at night.
It was actually a dark and wet basement, which was the best environment for mice, instead of humans. And it connected to the sewers of this city beneath it.
His pregnant wife poured a cup of tea and seated him, “Have you had some food? I picked some canned meat this afternoon!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“No more wandering outside with your big belly, OK?” Uncle Mouse Monster scolded his wife… but eyes revealed his warmth.
Right then, all of his kids rushed toward him; the family looked cheerful.
It was the time for a rest, but the Mouse Monster mood changed.
“Dad! I want a new toy!”
“Dad,dad! Can I have a new pencil box? I’ve used this one for one year…”
“Dad, dad…”
“Honey, we’ve used too much electricity this month…”
The worries of a middle-aged male rose from Uncle Mouse Monster…
Although Mouse Monsters could exist in cities… they had been living in the lowest level due to their cowardly character.
This Mouse Monster was living in this city lawfully; its family lived poorly but were happy.
However recently, the Mouse Monster was starting to get anxious… because of his growing kids and a with a new addition.
It was hard to support the family’s expense as a pipeline worker.
…
He felt anxious lying on his bed, so he went out of its home for a walk.
Soon, he came to an old and abandoned factory; there was a flat there, but not many people were still living there.
Uncle Mouse Monster went through many factories and finally arrived at a place with windows and door closed; then it knocked at the door quickly.
The door was opened soon, and a thin boy with smoky eyes showed up. Then, a deafening noise came to the ears of the mouse.
Music and fantastic lights mixed with messy smells. Uncle Mouse Monster deeply breathed, and spat out a bead, giving it to the boy.
The boy weighed it in his hand, and revealed a smile, “Welcome.”
Uncle Mouse Monster couldn’t wait to enter, feeling that his nerves had calmed down.
He enjoyed the earsplitting music, as if his soul was dancing with the tempo.
It turned out monsters also needed to relax.
This was the Elysium Pub—a place for monsters to relax and release their stress.
It costed the power of monsters—the bead it spat was the entrance fee.
It was hard for monsters to gather the power in the city, even harder than earning money… so Uncle Mouse Monster could only come every two months.
He walked to the bar—merely wanting to get some beers as he couldn’t afford anything else.
At the same time, a young female wearing short pants and a tight top was twisting her body to the tempo. Each of her movements were full of temptation.
Some drunk monsters were cheering under the dancing floor.
“One fire lizard please.” The mouse sat down and turned to the bartender—a wild-boar monster.
“Is she a new dancing diva? I’ve never seen her before.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“She?” the wild-boar monster poured fire-red liquid as saying, “She’s not a dancing diva, but came for fun like you. I don’t know her background. As per the rule, we never ask for their own information.”
“Oh…” Uncle Mouse Monster shrugged. He drank the fire lizard while narrowing his eyes, “But she looks pretty sexy.”
“What, a scardy mouse like wants her?” the wild boar bartender scorned, “Look at them, all the males want to get her, but nobody dares to take any actions!”
“Oh?” the words attracted Uncle Mouse Monster’s interest.
The bartender came close and said secretly, “I just know that she appeared 6 months ago and came about twice… it’s the third time she came here. She’s not a person to annoy. Do you know what happened last time when a stupid guy harassed her?”
“What happened?”
The wild boar bartender pointed at the ice-tube bucket, “Like this, he became ice tubes and broke when someone touched him!”
Uncle Mouse Monster shrunk his neck. Apparently, he was worried, “Became ice tubes… what kind of monster is she?”
The bartender shrugged, “I don’t know, I just hear she is called Lizi.”
Uncle Mouse Monster only nodded and remembered the name, before continuing his drink.
“One more!”
Ten minutes passed, the mouse had drunk five cups of fire lizard and looked tipsy.
“Do you have something on your mind?” the wild boar bartender wiped cups while asking curiously.
Uncle Mouse Monster raised head and gave him a smile, saying after a burp, “You… you don’t know anything… you don’t know it…”
“I can share your sadness.”
Uncle Mouse Monster shook its head, “Let me, me ask you a question. Tell me…(burp)…Tell me, how to quickly and safely, without breaking Master Long’s rules, make a lot of… money?”
The bartender came close and whispered, “Many ways are fast and safe, but if you don’t want to break Master Long’s rule, then there are even less.”
The mouse gaped and said drunkenly, “There are less…how less?”
The wild boar bartender looked around secretly, “It depends on how brave you are!”
