Looking down from a high altitude, the high-rise buildings are overflowing with neon light.
A series of suspended cars whizzed past in mid-air, causing a commotion.
Monster Apartments, St. Ann District, 1603.
A huge shadow was reflected on the kitchen wall, and the oil smoke rushed into the living room carrying the smell of rice. Cartoons from the human world were playing on the TV. On the sofa, a little bear was holding snacks and watching TV, smiling from ear to ear.
At this time, the door opened, and a bear demon in casual clothes walked in with his head lowered. He was carrying a heavy bag in his hand, sniffed the aroma wafting from the oil smoke, and couldn't help but smile and shout: "I'm back!"
"Father."
The little bear spirit jumped up from the sofa and hugged the bear spirit's neck.
"Oh, my good son."
Xiong Yao Li Gang raised his hand to gently hold his son's buttocks, and rubbed his big face against the little bear's cheek.
"Father, it's so itchy."
Everyone, big and small, burst into honest laughter.
"Okay, stop playing, let's eat first."
A female bear with a wide body and a fat waist walked out of the kitchen, with an apron wrapped around her waist. She came to the dining table carrying several bowls of meat and vegetables. Her eyes caught sight of the bag in Li Gang's hand, and her smile faltered slightly.
Li Gang couldn't help showing an embarrassed look on his face, but he just hugged his son and said, "Let's eat first."
"Time to eat!"
Accompanied by my son’s laughter.
A family of monsters enjoyed their dinner happily.
The bear spirit grasped a large bone stick as thick as an adult's arm, and easily tore it apart with its sharp teeth. The large piece of fresh meat filled its cheeks and chewed it down with great pleasure.
Li Gang buried his head in his meal without looking at his wife's face, which was about to get angry.
After the little bear had eaten and drank enough and swayed back to the room to practice with his round belly in his arms, the conversation between the couple began.
"According to Xiaoli's age, he will go to school soon."
Mother Xiong cleared the table and glanced at Li Gang: "I prepared the tuition for the first year earlier, but where are the meat balls for practice... I asked you to buy them, but you bought back a bunch of meat?"
"You said the meat balls just launched by Gufang are too expensive..."
Li Gang said a little cautiously: "Some time ago, the meat balls I bought from Zhenji were found to be defective. There was a sudden uproar, which caused the price of the meat balls sold by Gujia to soar."
“Why don’t you buy it if it’s expensive?”
Hearing these words, Mother Bear felt a surge of energy rush into her head, and she couldn't help but speak in a higher tone.
In just the next moment, she quickly covered her mouth and turned her head to look at Xiao Xiong's room. When she saw that her son was not disturbed, she continued: "If Xiao Li doesn't practice hard, then the children he will give birth to in the future may not be able to activate their spiritual powers."
Zhi, when the time comes we will be driven out of the Demon City and return to the mountains with nothing!"
Monsters without spiritual intelligence cannot live in the Demon City.
The minimum requirements are a hundred years of Taoism and spiritual wisdom.
"No, it's not as serious as you said."
Li Gang couldn't help but sigh helplessly: "Xiao Li's cultivation talent is pretty good. Maybe he can have a thousand years of Taoism like me in the future. There will definitely be no problem in supporting himself in the Demon City."
As he spoke, he seemed to think of something and joked: "Besides, it's not bad in the mountains. With the sky as a quilt and the ground as a mat, we don't have to think about so many things. Let's return to nature!"
The next second, a barbell came through the air with the sound of howling wind.
Li Gang quickly raised his hand to catch it, and the bell buzzed with the huge force.
"Oh, look at your temper."
Li Gang was so frightened that fine sweat broke out on his forehead, and he smiled coyly: "It's just a joke, honey, why do you take it seriously!"
Mother Xiong's eyes narrowed slightly, with a dangerous cold light, and she said angrily: "Good talent also requires resources. Don't you understand this? Your thousand-year Taoist practice was achieved through talent alone?"
"..."
Li Gang was speechless.
The more Mother Bear talked, the more she got louder and louder, with her hands on her hips and spitting stars flying around:
"How many years have you lived in the Demon City? Now that you have adapted to this, can you go back to the mountains? Or do you plan to change your appearance and die in the human world? Even if the Demon Association does not trouble you, will the Great Wall let you be a time bomb outside?
!”
Li Gang nodded in agreement, but he had already mastered the skill of going in with the left ear and out with the right ear.
Not all monsters live in the monster city.
Monsters in the human world either hide deep enough not to be discovered, or they are under strict supervision by the Great Wall. In fact, unless there are special circumstances, they are usually sent to the Monster City.
"Besides, our life now is different from before!"
Mother Xiong suddenly changed the topic and looked at Li Gang, her eyes sparkling with joy: "You just made a breakthrough some time ago, and with your original achievements, they can't stop your promotion this time, and they are afraid that you will have no money by then.
?”
"I have chosen a new house..."
Words of longing for a better life are endless.
In the Demon City, the existence of the Great Wall is like an army. It does not move out easily and does not intervene.
The Yokai Management Association is like a patrol department, responsible for all things large and small in the Yokai City.
Li Gang is a member of the Demon Association, responsible for public security in the city, and his position is equivalent to that of a detective. His merits have already qualified for promotion, but he was suppressed because of his personality.
This time, just as Mama Xiong said, Li Gang broke through the Thousand Years of Taoism, and those monsters had no reason to stop him.
Hearing these words, Li Gang suddenly felt unspeakable sorrow in his heart. He was about to say something, but a bell rang in his trouser pocket. The words got stuck in his throat, so he had to swallow them back.
Li Gang took out his cell phone and looked at it. When he saw the content of the text message, an imperceptible gloom flashed in his eyes. While putting away the cell phone, he said softly: "There is a task assigned by the superiors. I have to go out now."
Mother Bear was startled and immediately said with concern: "Be safe, be careful."
"Don't worry, I will pay attention."
Li Gang stepped forward and kissed Mother Bear on her forehead, smiled, and turned to leave.
Just like countless days and nights in the past.
The door closed gently.
Mother Bear tidies up the household odds and ends.
——

Li Gang walked out of the building where he lived and looked back. The tall building wall was pressing down like a huge mountain. He couldn't help but sigh deeply and came to a blue and white suspension vehicle parked on the roadside.
car, took out the keys and got in.
The first thing you do when you get in the car.
Li Gang changed his clothes and turned out to be wearing ordinary black clothes with a black dragon badge on the chest. This was the lowest-level clothing belonging to the Public Security Department of the Demon Association and was equivalent to a yamen officer in the patrol department.
Boom!
The hover car immediately flew out of the community and blended into the heavy traffic.
There was a traffic jam at this moment, so I didn't move forward for a long time.
"Gan!"
Li Gang felt an unknown fire burning in his chest getting stronger and stronger. He suddenly hammered the steering wheel, and a harsh car honked. He pressed the alarm bell and stepped on the accelerator. He instantly separated from the traffic flow, as if he was passing by.
The meteors in mid-air are getting faster and faster!
