They arrived at Dian Residence. Dian Zin Fang ordered the servant to take the sniper to the dungeon. Since it was already night, they would deal with the sniper the next day.

The maid rushed over to get Yu Qi. Xia Biya woke up and asked for Yu Qi several times. She did not want to see anyone else.

Yu Qi went to see Xia Biya. Xia Biya was relieved to see Yu Qi. She hugged Yu Qi in silence.

"Biya, what's wrong?" Yu Qi asked with a soft tone.

"Sister Yu Qi, am I going to be hunted?" Xia Biya asked.

"Why are you asking so?" Yu Qi asked back.

"Those people tried to kill me today. I accidentally harmed Sister Yu Qi as well. I am a jinx." Xia Biya blamed herself.

Yu Qi forced to Xia Biya to look up at her.

"Don't ever think like that. You are not a jinx and you will never become one, understand?" Yu Qi wanted Xia Biya to throw that thinking.

"But..." Xia Biya wanted to say something.

"No, but." Yu Qi said. She sighed. "Actually, today's incident was about me."

"Huh? What do you mean, Sister Yu Qi?" Xia Biya could not understand.

"The whole incident was aiming for me. Someone wants to kill me. That is why I don't want you to blame yourself." Yu Qi sighed again.

"But, no one wants to kill you, sister Yu Qi." Xia Biya said.

"Who tells you no one wants to kill me, hmm?" Yu Qi asked. "Biya, some people are aiming for me. But they did not succeed each time because what? Because I am stronger and clever than them."

Xia Biya was silent.

Yu Qi continued again. "I want you to become like that as well. That is why you are here. To learn to be strong and protect yourself. Once you can protect yourself, you can protect others too."

Xia Biya looked at Yu Qi. Her look on her eyes already changed. She wiped the tears from her eyes.

"Sister Yu Qi, I will be strong." Xia Biya said with a strong determination.

"Great." Yu Qi smiled. "Oh, it is dinner. Let's go and eat dinner together, shall we?"

"Hmm..." Xia Biya nodded.

...

The next day, Great-grandpa Dian, Grandpa Dian, Dian Zin Fang and Dian Qi Qi were going to the dungeon with Yu Qi.

Dian Ren Qi wanted to join them but he had a meeting that he would not miss out on.

They wanted to meet the sniper. And wanted to deal with him as well.

The sniper was in a better condition now. He had been stepped on by something heavy that could crush his body for many hours. It was a torture for him.

Aoi and Shino also followed them seeing the sniper. Once the sniper saw them, he stepped back in fear. Even though these animals looked so cute right now, he would not be deceived by that.

The servant took the sniper to the room. He was forced to sit on the chair, tied up, facing the people in front of him.

"Tell me, who paid you to kill my great-granddaughter?" Great-grandpa Dian asked.

The sniper was silent. Well, he was trained not to reveal their employer.

"Oh, you don't want to talk?" Dian Qi Qi stepped forward but was stopped by Dian Zin Fang.

"Calm down." Dian Zin Fang said.

"You should tell us if you don't want to get hurt." Grandpa Dian said.

Still silence. The sniper just ignored the question.

"Hmm... It seems he wants to be tortured." Yu Qi smiled.

She then asked the servants to lay the sniper down. The servant did what Yu Qi ordered. The sniper was lying on the floor with his back up.

"Aoi, change your size." Yu Qi said.

Aoi immediately changed his size to a bigger size. The sniper saw this and wanted to get out. He tried to crawl even though his body was tired up.

"Go and sit on him." Yu Qi said.

Aoi stepped on the sniper's back. The sniper remembered yesterday's pain.

"Argh!!!" The sniper screamed in pain.

"Do you want to say something?" Yu Qi asked.

"Argh!! Ah!!! Argh!!!" The sniper screamed again.

"Aoi put some pressure." Yu Qi said.

Then, the sniper let out another loud scream. It continued for several times.

"I give up... I give up. I will tell you everything that I know. But please let this animal go away. The sniper begged.

He could not handle this anymore. It hurts so much.

Yu Qi signalled Aoi to stop. Aoi jumped down and went to Yu Qi's side. Yu Qi rubbed Aoi's head.

"Good job." Yu Qi praised him.

"Then, tell us everything." Great-grandpa Dian stated.

The sniper began to tell his story. It was a few days ago. He was on the black market website looking around for the job that he could do.

Then, he came across the quest asking to kill a doctor. There was also a picture attached to it. He thought it was an easy job since the woman in the picture seemed weak.

He never thought that he would come across as a freak. No! Not a freak but a bunch of freaks. His teacher told him that there were strange people in this world and advised him not to get involved with them.

But here he was. Caught by the strange people. He really wanted to cry.
