Strange stranger

If Lin Feng remembered correctly, this was the third time Muyun and Vivian had collectively destroyed furniture since coming to this house. The werewolf girl was honest about paying rent, which was good, and the vampire girl wasn't bad as a cook, but could they control their destructive power better? Muyun picked up her claws, feeling embarrassed, and curled up on the sofa. Vivian sighed, "You'll have to compensate yourself, I'm broke." Muyun, using her brain unusually well for once, immediately protested, "What about your honor as a vampire?" Vivian shrugged, "I have honor, but no money."

Looking at the new table he had just replaced two days ago, Lin Feng felt sorry. Hearing the poor vampire's careless words, he could only sigh, "Forget it, I'll report to the landlord, maybe I can get reimbursed." So, both superwomen were pleased, and Vivian gave up investigating Muyun's claws. She went to continue doing housework, while Muyun enthusiastically studied her new weapon.

Time passed like this for two or three days. Muyun's adjustment was indeed quick. The fact that she was born a husky, which was enough to drive one crazy, only troubled her for less than a day. The next morning, when Lin Feng saw the wolf girl energetically searching for food around the room, he knew that the usual naive and optimistic girl was back.

From this, Lin Feng and the others concluded their experience for the future: Muyun was someone who didn't need others to worry about her. Even such a life-changing event didn't have much of an impact on her. What else was there to worry about in the future? Those without teeth don't get toothaches, and those who are naive probably won't develop mental illnesses... Worrying about a husky was truly a luxury.

After confirming Muyun's recovery, everyone in the rented house returned to their daily lives. Lin Feng lived his usual life and was responsible for buying groceries every day. Isaac continued to study the local culture of this planet, trying to integrate into the local environment as soon as possible (considering his face, this might be difficult). Muyun lived a regular life, writing at home on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and going out to treat stray dogs on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Vivian added a new task to her housework: she began guiding Muyun as a mentor, helping the wolf girl slowly discover her new powers, mainly to see if she could solve the problem of tearing clothes when transforming...

Lin Feng's view on this was: as long as they didn't tear down the house, anything was fine.

Lin Feng had an errand to run today. The weather was getting colder by the day, and the recent weather forecast predicted consecutive days of overcast and rain, with a significant drop in temperature across the city. Lin Feng needed to buy some daily necessities to prepare for this.

He decided not to bring Isaac along this time. Although the demon was eager to help, Lin Feng thought it might be better to wait until people in the neighborhood got used to Isaac's appearance. Otherwise, the sight of them together might lead enthusiastic onlookers to think that Lin Feng was being kidnapped by a fugitive...

As he crossed the intersection, Lin Feng came face to face with a tall foreigner. The man was about 1.9 meters tall, with a muscular build, wearing a thick long windbreaker. He had black curly hair, and although Lin Feng hadn't seen many foreigners in his life (he only knew a few British people), the man's striking grey-blue eyes left a deep impression. They almost brushed past each other, but the man was so eye-catching in every way that Lin Feng couldn't help but take a few more glances.

In this small place in the southern suburbs, foreigners were as rare as giant pandas. In fact, Lin Feng even doubted whether there had been any foreign friends here since the founding of the country—his roommates didn't count, as they lacked even the concept of being 'foreign.' But Lin Feng had seen aliens, so encountering this tall and sturdy foreigner didn't make much of an impact on him. He was about to walk away when the man took the initiative to speak: "Wait a minute."

His accent was a bit strange, but his Mandarin was quite fluent.

"Um, do you need directions?" Lin Feng asked curiously, looking at this foreigner who could speak Chinese.

"I'm Kasa Eben." The stranger seemed quite proactive and friendly, extending his hand to shake with Lin Feng. "I'm a small merchant here to do business. I'd like to ask where the registration office for foreigners is."

Lin Feng shook the man's hand, noting that the "small merchant" had a strong grip. He thought for a moment, "You probably need to go to the police station... Walk down this street to the end, then turn left, and keep going to the end. But they may not be able to help you; you might have to go to the city center."

"Oh, thank you." Kasa Eben smiled and said, continuing to hold Lin Feng's hand and sniffing forcefully from time to time while speaking, as if smelling something on Lin Feng. This gave Lin Feng goosebumps, and he quickly shook off the man's hand, saying, "Uh, you're welcome, you're welcome."

Kasa Eben smiled indifferently, brushed past Lin Feng's shoulder, and walked away in another direction. As they passed each other, he took another deep breath, leaving behind a mysterious sentence, "Good luck."

After the man was out of sight, Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief. The goosebumps on his back were almost constant, and his good mood from going out had been ruined. By intuition, he felt that the man might be gay...

This morning's encounter made Lin Feng feel quite uncomfortable. He hurriedly bought what he needed and returned home. As soon as he pushed the door, he saw Vivian and Muyun busy "practicing with their new weapons": there were many pieces of raw lamb on the table. Muyun froze the lamb with her ice claws, then knocked it into small pieces and grilled it on her fire claws, while Vivian was responsible for sprinkling seasoning...

This was obviously difficult to control, with many failed products. However, Vivian was still enthusiastic and confident, "Come on, once you're familiar with this process, you'll definitely be faster than those selling lamb skewers on the street. When the time comes, we can sell lamb skewers on the street. You can roast them inside, and I'll have money soon... Oh, landlord, you're back?"

"Can't you two do something worthy of your races!" Lin Feng stepped forward and rubbed Muyun's head, adding, "Well, Muyun suits her identity, but can't you consider the dignity of being a vampire?"

Muyun didn't know how to avoid being rubbed on the head by others. Instead, she rubbed against him energetically, "I think the idea of a bat is pretty good. Although she's annoying, she's smart... But why have you been touching my head these past few days, landlord?"

Lin Feng quickly withdrew his hand, thinking that there were indeed many new habits that he couldn't stop since learning about Muyun's identity!

"Ah, speaking of which, today is really unlucky." Lin Feng noticed that Vivian was looking at him strangely, so he quickly changed the subject to avoid further strange associations, "I just met a foreigner who looks like a bear when I went out..."

If he hadn't changed the subject, both Muyun and Vivian's expressions would have subtly changed. "Are you deciding to start a new life, landlord?" Muyun's eyes, with a suspiciously fervent glow, made Lin Feng subconsciously keep some distance from this husky, "What's with that look... I'll tell you, my orientation is very normal..."

Muyun sighed disappointedly, "Oh—I thought there was some new material around me."

Lin Feng felt a cold sweat coming on: this literary young woman's range of creation seemed quite wide!

Fortunately, Vivian was a very principled girl and didn't continue Muyun's topic in a strange direction. She was just curious, "I've never seen a foreigner come here. Tell me, I've never seen a foreigner here."

"Oh, that's it..." Lin Feng casually mentioned the encounter he had had when he went out in the morning. Finally, he found it strange, "The man speaks Chinese quite fluently, so he should have stayed in China for quite a long time. How come he doesn't know where to go for foreigner registration?"

"Kasa Eben?" Vivian seemed slightly interested in this strange name. She seemed to recall something unpleasant, furrowing her brows slightly, but quickly shook her head, "It's probably a coincidence."

Lin Feng glanced at Vivian curiously, "Do you know this name?"

"I know there's a Eben family." Vivian shrugged, "But it's been over a hundred years since I heard about them. They're a group of werewolves, always secretly researching some kind of racial revival plan, troublesome guys. But their main activity areas are in Europe and Latin America. The number of werewolves in Asia is scarce, so they won't come here."

Although Vivian's tone was dismissive, Lin Feng immediately became wary: based on his life experience since meeting Raven12345, he felt that he might be getting into trouble again...
