The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 841

Chapter 841: Chapter 841: Has Your Child Run Away from Home Again?

Scarlett Jennings looked at Callum Yuan and Hannah Hearne, then at the familiar help-seeker in front of her, and her expression turned silent for a moment.

The help-seeker was a cat demon mom. She stared at Scarlett Jennings for quite a while, then sniffed her and quickly reacted, pointing at her,

"You’re that person! I don’t want you to take my case. Why do you keep taking my requests?! Do you have some ulterior motive against me?"

This cat demon mom was also Scarlett Jennings’ first task when she joined the Mystic Regulation Office, and it was also from her that Scarlett received her first complaint.

The reason being, well, she was human.

...

Isn’t this quite the coincidence?

"Did your child run away from home again?"

Scarlett Jennings remembered that the last time this family’s cub ran away because it wanted to become a celebrity cat on the internet.

It ended up sneaking into a pet blogger’s house, occupying it as its own, until she tracked it down and brought it back to this cat demon mom.

"None of your business!"

The cat demon mom was still bristling; humans are no good.

Hannah Hearne, not entirely sure what was going on, kindly provided an explanation,

"This demon friend got the wrong idea; she’s not human, she’s a half-demon."

As she spoke, she pulled Scarlett Jennings a bit closer to the cat demon mom,

"Why don’t you take another sniff?"

Scarlett Jennings stood with a poker face, allowing the cat demon mom to sniff her for a while longer.

The latter finally detected a faint scent of demonic power, her expression softened a bit, but she still muttered,

"She really is a half-demon, yet last time she fooled me into thinking she’s human..."

Scarlett Jennings: ...

Last time, she really was an authentic human.

"Anyway, let’s talk about your child."

With Scarlett’s reminder, the cat demon mom remembered the main issue,

"After the last incident, I educated him, and he listened. I told him to cultivate diligently so that when he could smoothly transform into a complete human form, I’d send him to the Mystic Academy. He’s been well-behaved since then, and later even made a friend, a little imp sprite from outside."

The cat demon mom said,

"I thought the little imp sprite was well-behaved, so I didn’t interfere with them. But then, a few days ago, that imp sprite suddenly spirited my cub away!

It wasn’t long ago that external demons were abducting imp sprites, right? Now that I think about it, that imp sprite must be one of those traffickers! Just like human traffickers who use kids to lure other kids, my child definitely was taken away like that!"

The more the cat demon mom talked, the more furious she became; an unknown tail even poked out and slapped the ground with a loud thud.

Scarlett Jennings just glanced and withdrew her gaze, then asked some more about that external imp sprite, routinely asking the cat demon mom for a tuft of fur and obtaining an item that carried the scent left by the imp sprite.

Hannah Hearne saw her seriously asking all around and couldn’t help giving her advice when they came out,

"You don’t have to be so earnest, most tasks assigned to us by the Mystic Regulation Office are small matters like finding lost cats and dogs. Those two imp sprites are probably just playing somewhere and forgot to come back; it happens a lot."

The tasks that get assigned to the Special Demon Squad are mostly trivial, and Hannah Hearne doesn’t even bother with them.

Yet Scarlett Jennings thought it was something important and insisted on going along, huh~

Hearing her mention finding cats and dogs, Scarlett Jennings remembered her very first task, realizing that Cassian Wolf was just using her as auxiliary personnel back then.

But she didn’t bother to get angry over such things, though she did feel things weren’t as the cat demon mom said, so she properly investigated the whereabouts of the two imp sprites.

Hannah Hearne and Callum Yuan watched as she directly input the demon energy of the two imp sprites into the Spiritual Affairs APP, and after some operations, two location icons actually appeared on the phone in no time.

Even Callum Yuan couldn’t help but show a hint of surprise in his eyes.

And Hannah Hearne, even more so, said, "You can use the Spiritual Affairs APP like this??"

She had always treated it as a trading platform and gossip forum.

Scarlett Jennings, after all, was an official employee of the Spiritual Affairs, and she replied,

"The functions developed by Spiritual Affairs are varied. If used well, they can occasionally replace some magic directly."
