The Fake Heiress Turns Out to Be a True Tycoon! novel Chapter 932

Chapter 932: Chapter 932: Missing a Ten-Million Check Here

Scarlett Jennings was confirming with Samuel Chalmers about the whereabouts of the escaped Malice Worm, but there were no leads for the moment.

Suddenly, they encountered another youth who had been possessed by the worm.

Could it just be a coincidence?

While Scarlett Jennings pondered this, someone from the Academy had already come scampering over.

But instead of Wu Hu, it was Wu Hu’s good friend Hill.

Though Hill had lost his temper in front of Scarlett Jennings last time, he was usually carefree, and didn’t have any special reaction upon seeing Scarlett again.

However, he did look at Marcus Knight with some wariness,

"You’re that human friend of Wu Hu’s?"

As he spoke, he circled Marcus Knight, as if memorizing his scent in every way.

Upon seeing the word ’Tiger’ on Marcus’s face, Hill was a bit displeased.

This tiger emblem was clearly written by Wu Hu.

He actually marked a human behind his back!

No one paid attention to Hill’s little emotional pang, and seeing him circling without addressing the matter at hand, Hannah Hearne directly asked him,

"Where’s your Tiger Demon friend? Why is it you who came?"

Though Hill was bold by virtue of his panda bloodline, he still had some fear of the Special Demon Squad from the West District, so he honestly said,

"Wu Hu skipped class today."

He paused, then added, "But I know where he is."

Hannah Hearne raised an eyebrow, and without further ado, motioned to the chubby panda, "Lead the way."

The group of people then moved from the Academy of Mystique to Demon Street.

Throughout, Marcus Knight was led around to a place he had never been before. He wasn’t worried about being abducted, but anxiously touched his face.

Hill led the group to a small courtyard, knocked on the door, and indeed, they saw Wu Hu, who jumped at the sight of Marcus Knight,

"Why are you here?"

"I’m looking for you," Marcus Knight said, pointing behind him to the group, "They brought me here."

Seeing the group of people behind Marcus, Wu Hu’s expression was also complicated. He hesitated but gestured them to come inside.

Once the group was inside, they saw an elderly woman sitting in the hall.

Her hair was completely gray, but she exuded a sharp aura. Seeing these youngsters coming in, her face grew even more stern.

Her gaze finally landed on Marcus Knight, and only then did she say in a cold voice,

"Wu Hu has told me about your issue. He’s too young to deal with what’s inside you, so he used demonic power to temporarily suppress it."

Wu Hu’s original form is a Tiger Demon, and the tiger mark made with demonic power serves as a medium, allowing his demonic power to exert a certain effect in a short period.

Originally, upon discovering the anomaly in Marcus’s body, Wu Hu planned to turn to the Mystic Regulation Office.

But the Mystic Regulation Office does not deal with human matters, so instead, he sought out this tribal grandmother for help.

He hadn’t expected Marcus to show up on his own, and bring so many people.

"I originally didn’t want to involve myself in a human juvenile’s matter, but since he begged me and you’ve also come directly to my doorstep, it’s not like I can’t help you this once."

The elderly woman paused here, her tone becoming even more solemn,

"But I hope after this, you keep a distance from Wu Hu. He’s a demon, and you’re a human; nothing good comes from your association."

Hannah Hearne’s ears perked up hearing this line.
