Chapter 28: Craving Her Body 3/5
It was the first day that Night Lan had arrived in Pinghai City.
Night Star had also recently transferred to Pinghai City and was still a few weeks away from the weekend performances they usually did.
Night Lan really wanted to go to the beach with her friends.
But the potential dangers in the sea affected her vacation plans this time around.
If something like last time happened again, even Night Lan—who tends to just go along with the flow—would get angry.
To prevent that from happening again, Night Star had to try and solve the problem.
…
At the Night Watcher Base of the Sea City.
Night Lan was checking out the situation on the website of the Night Watchers in Pinghai City.
It was about the information regarding the star eclipses that turned ocean life into monsters.
There were still some public records available on there.
Night Lan didn’t want to dive in blindly; she needed to at least understand more about the situation.
“Mmm…”
Night Lan sat on the bed, leaning against the wall. Zero Meow was beside her, holding a digital tablet and drawing. It was clearly a picture of a swimsuit-wearing loli, probably referencing someone like Night Lan.
Even though Night Lan didn’t wear a swimsuit today, she tried one on at the swimsuit store before. Zero Meow naturally remembered that scene and was now in the zone of perfect recollection.
For a loli with such expertise in the lewd, erasing and adding those elements was child’s play.
However, Night Lan didn’t look over at Zero Meow’s lewd drawings. She kept carefully studying information about the star eclipse incidents in Pinghai City.
After a long time of diligent investigation…
Night Lan finally got a good understanding of the general information on who was responsible for creating these grotesque ocean creatures.
“Hmm, Ecological Distortion? A medium-level star eclipse? It can create such huge monsters that pollute marine life, and it’s only medium-level? Maybe Know Star got it wrong?”
Night Lan mumbled to herself, puzzled.
Although the giant octopus that appeared today could be taken down by modern weapons…
The average Night Watcher couldn’t do that.
Just like White Paint, who was more experienced and slightly stronger, managed to trap the large octopus for no more than two minutes.
Only a battle-ready Sunlight Night Watcher could easily take it down in seconds.
A star eclipse that needed intervention from a Sunlight Night Watcher wasn’t simply an average medium-level one.
Night Lan pondered this and suddenly had a thought.
“Could it be that the star eclipse embodiment’s physical strength is comparatively weaker?”
That was indeed possible. Possessing powerful pollutant abilities but being incredibly weak.
Even if she were to generate monstrous creatures, the embodiment itself would be easy prey for regular Night Watchers.
Something along those lines.
Next, she continued researching and found a reference image of the Ecological Distortion star eclipse embodiment.
It was a photo of a blue-haired loli on an alienated blue whale, apparently taken from a flying drone’s camera.
The picture was clear enough to make out the basic state of the embodiment.
Then, Night Lan discovered that the Ecological Distortion embodiment was actually a blue-haired loli.
“Hmm…”
She fell into deep thought immediately.
At that moment, Zero Meow paused her drawing and came closer to Night Lan to look at the screen together.
“Oh~ Such a cute little thing! Is that the embodiment of Ecological Distortion?”
“Yeah, it’s the star eclipse embodiment that created today’s giant octopus.”
“Ugh… Are you going to deal with her?”
“I’m thinking about it, I want to give it a shot.”
Night Lan didn’t hide her intentions.
After all, it was seriously impacting her vacation mood, and it had created psychological traumas for Star Yoon and Neko Shinna.
Addressing the root cause would certainly help.
Worrying about encountering horrible monsters at the beach again might make everyone hesitant to go.
Even if the embodiment of Ecological Distortion is so cute.
Night Lan had to remain firm in handling the situation.
Before proceeding,
she needed to gather more information.
If the Ecological Distortion was truly beyond redemption—a kind of antisocial with a strong obsession, Night Lan wouldn’t hold back.
Zero Meow didn’t say much more.
“Just leave it to the Night Watchers in Pinghai City. You’re still new at this, Night Lan…”
In Zero Meow’s eyes, Night Lan remained a naive Night Watcher she needed to protect.
Putting her in charge of the star eclipse incident was too early.
But since they didn’t know Night Lan’s secrets…
Night Lan gave a light chuckle.
“It’s not like I have to do it myself. Don’t forget I have friends in the Rising Sun Theater Group. If I ask them, they’ll surely help with it. Don’t underestimate the friendship between me and the performers!”
“Ugh… Such a wonderful relationship…”
Zero Meow was already starting on some envy.
How wonderful it would be if their relationship was like that.
Sadly, it couldn’t happen yet.
They both needed to spend more time together in the future.
Night Lan refocused and committed the information about Ecological Distortion to memory, synchronizing it with Night Star.
At the same time…
At the Rising Sun Theater.
Night Star and others returned from the shopping district, intending to discuss matters concerning the star eclispses in Pinghai City.
Mo Rabbit had already been recalled by Night Star and was seated on the theater’s seats.
“What brings you back? Something important?”
Mo Rabbit seemed puzzled and unsure why she was summoned.
Night Star didn’t reveal her purpose right away.
“Moth Rabbit, did you finish processing all the unnecessary information in your mind?”
“Not bad. Got most of it done at the beach earlier.”
Today, Mo Rabbit saw quite a sight and comfortably enjoyed some beach winds under an umbrella, sipping coconut juice when thirsty—it was a perfect holiday setup.
As for her swimsuit… in the end, she ignored it. It was manageable with practice.
Whatever she wore was already sealed somewhere else and won’t see daylight again unless forced.
Moving on—
Since Night Star asked her, there must be something she wanted.
Maybe it was a matter of divination.
Mo Rabbit caught on quickly.
“Go ahead, tell me what you need predicted? As long as it’s not too high-profile, I can try.”
Mo Rabbit flashed a cheeky, albeit confident, smile.
Unlike her adult self, who would be quite sure, her loli form only looked adorable even if overly proud.
Indeed, full-on loli filter applied.
“How precious.”
Night Star struggled to resist the urge to pinch her cheeks and stated her goal.
“I need to know where the hidden location of the medium-level star eclipse, Ecological Distortion, is.”
On hearing this, Mo Rabbit raised an eyebrow.
“You’re actually targeting her? Is that because you’re craving her body?”
Everyone knew that Night Star loved littles. In the world of the Rising Sun Theater Group, loli performers received the most love from viewers.
Typically, Night Star used Lotus as a pillow during her afternoon naps in the theater.
Even empty Rain Bai et al. never had a chance.
Now that Night Star was enquiring about details about the Ecological Distortion star eclipse, suspicions arose. Could she be planning to snatch this loli and train her?
Embodiments of the star eclipse had no human rights.
