The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 846

Chapter 846: Chapter 846: The Origins of Tai Hei

Capital Metropolitan, Demon Clinic.

When Samuel Chalmers returned with Scarlett Jennings, Dashiell had just handed over the little canine demon to the clinic’s demon doctor for treatment.

The demon clan has a unique constitution and doesn’t fall ill as easily as ordinary humans. Even when injured, they recover faster than average people. Thus, Capital Metropolitan doesn’t have medical facilities specifically for demons, but there are demon clinics opened individually by demons skilled in medicine.

The clinic is situated at the boundary between Demon Street and human territory, yet it’s rare for humans to accidentally enter.

Scarlett Jennings knew of this clinic, but she wasn’t familiar with the demon behind it. However, it was said that the demon doctor of this clinic had a deep relationship with Aaron Hearne.

When Samuel Chalmers and Scarlett Jennings walked inside, they saw outside the consultation room, Dashiell with a small orange cat on his head, crouching by the wall, both looking somewhat downcast.

Seeing the two approaching, Dashiell immediately stood up with the orange cat on his head and called out,

"Scarlett!"

Then he looked towards Samuel Chalmers beside Scarlett Jennings, with slightly red eyes, his voice inexplicably carrying a sense of grievance, "Brother Samuel..."

Samuel Chalmers knew this little flood dragon and was aware that he followed him back then for the opportunity of Dragon Transformation.

He didn’t care much about his address.

Scarlett Jennings noticed the flash of disappointment in Dashiell’s eyes and straightforwardly shifted his attention by asking, "How is the little canine demon?"

Dashiell replied, "Still inside undergoing emergency treatment. The injuries are severe, but it shouldn’t die."

He spoke frankly, and the little orange cat on his head whimpered and cried upon hearing this.

The little orange cat reverted to its small bean form, with the demon features like ears and tail not yet retracted, but no one minded.

"Boohoo... It’s all my fault, Taihei got into trouble because of me..."

Samuel Chalmers also wanted to know how the tainted demon aura came about on the little canine demon, so he signaled him to speak,

"Speak in detail."

Barrett Clement was still sobbing and ignored Samuel Chalmers’s words. Scarlett Jennings thought for a moment, then took a Shellback turtle snack from her bag and handed it to him,

"Speak in detail."

Barrett Clement sniffed it, took it, and then spoke while leaning close to Scarlett Jennings.

"Taihei and I went out to play and saw someone deliberately throw a dying dog under a car wheel, pretending the dog was injured by the car to extort money. Taihei got angry at how those people treated the dog, so he fought them."

Though it was deliberate extortion, to make the dog’s injuries look more genuine, those people had actually run over the dog’s legs with a car.

Taihei, being a canine demon himself, couldn’t stand such things.

Initially, it was just a lesson, but by accident, they discovered a group of cat-and-dog traffickers stealing cats and dogs.

The extorted dog was also bought from those traffickers, specifically choosing pedigree dogs with owners.

Barrett Clement liked to watch short videos and knew that online some cat-and-dog traffickers captured cats and dogs specifically to eat them. Being of the same kind, Barrett Clement couldn’t bear the thought of those cats and dogs being eaten, so he told Taihei he wanted to rescue those animals.

The two imps followed the group all the way out of town, finding the truck loaded with cats and dogs.

What happened next was as Scarlett Jennings had been told.

In order to protect him, Taihei exposed his demon identity, causing those people to threaten him with Taihei and the animals, and later Taihei was taken away separately and imprisoned.

After hearing the entire sequence of events, Scarlett Jennings wasn’t surprised by the actions of the two imps, but she hadn’t heard what she wanted to know about Taihei’s condition.

"If Taihei was normal before, the tainted demon energy might have been caused after he was taken by those dog traffickers."

Scarlett Jennings looked at Samuel Chalmers, "Is there something wrong with those people?"

Samuel Chalmers said, "Those were all ordinary people."

They weren’t demons, nor did they have any taint on them.

Upon hearing this, Scarlett Jennings’s eyes narrowed slightly,
