Chapter 620: Fireworks

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The reward from Feather of the Chief Specter added to his identity as Qidian’s well-known list owner.

Feather of the Chief Spector indeed fulfilled its promise and added Pi’s novel to its list. Followers soon realized that a new book with a low word count was added to the list, and started flooding the book review sections to find out if the book was worth reading, pushing down all the bad posts about Pi.

Zhang Zian logged onto the author’s platform, deleted all the untrue posts and blocked the writers from the page. Finally, the book review section was peaceful once again.

The effects were really terrifying. Zhang Zian and Pi both watched as the number of adds increased to a new level, simply dumbfounded.

Pi recovered from its depressed mood and started on a new chapter. However, Pi refreshed the book review section every half hour to prevent any more slanderous posts from showing up again.

Bang! Bang!

Someone downstairs was knocking on the doors. It must be Lu Yiyin here for work.

Ever since he woke up, Zhang Zian had been busy with Pi’s novel. His face wasn’t washed, hair wasn’t done and he hadn’t finished cleaning the area. He quickly ran downstairs to let her in, and then started cleaning. As for his face and hair, nobody was going to look anyway.

A nimble figure ran across the front of the store, followed closely by a brown, black and white beagle with its tongue out.

Passing by the pet store’s glass door, Masanori Suzuhara eyes met Zhang Zian’s. She nodded as a greeting and the next second her figure was no longer in sight.

She would be run past the store almost everyday. The people who live nearby and wake up early are already used to her reflective sports attire and sports shoes, yet only a few of them know that she’s an exchange student from Japan.

Zhang Zian walked over to the entrance of the store and looked in the direction she was running. Not only did he see the reflective strip on her back, but he also saw the line outside Li’s Supreme Snack Shop. People were already lining up so that they would be able to cuddle with the cats as they have their breakfast.

After a moment, Wang Qian and Li Kun cheerfully turned up for work. They were told the day before that due to their exemplary actions, they’ll get a cut of next semester’s merit student scholarship. To them, it was like a gift from God.

Zhang Zian stood at the entrance, stopping the two from entering, and pointed towards the direction of the market and said, “Go over to the shop and buy some firecrackers.”

The two of them looked at each other and said after a moment, “Master, you want to set off firecrackers?”

These days, not much people in the city still set off fireworks. Those who want to do so, go to the outskirts of town. It was a hassle, and the two of them didn’t expect Zhang Zian to have a fun side.

“Just go where I tell you.” Zhang Zian waved as he chased them away.

This is the elfins’ first Chinese New Year since they came to Binhai City. Zhang Zian planned to give them a memory that was closer to the traditional celebration, so firecrackers were essential.

Of course, for safety reasons, setting off firecrackers within the city was prohibited, so any plan to set off firecrackers had to be done on the outskirts of town. Zhang Zian had already thought of a good location, Fu Tao’s police dog nursing home, where the area around the village definitely didn’t prohibit setting off firecrackers.

Ten dismissed police dogs had been living there for a period of time Although they weren’t put to use after being bought by the film crew, they were still part of the film crew. Zhnag Zian planned to visit, to take a look at their current living conditions.

Most members of the film crew, including director Feng Xuan, were either working on the editing process or filming for other movies. The rest were at home with their families for the New Years. No one remain in Binhai City, except for Zhang Zian, so the task visiting the dogs naturally fell on his shoulders.

The living expenses for the 10 police dogs were paid for by the film crew. Zhang Zian visited the dogs on behalf of the film crew to check if the money was put to good use, and not put into Fu Tao’s wallet.

If the police dogs were suffering, the film crew would be too ashamed to put the closing line, “Proper arrangements were made for all animals that worked on the production of this film.” Feng Xuan and his wife took this matter very seriously, they had requested for Zhang Zian to make some time for a trip down, and to ensure that it was a surprise so he can see the truth.

The trip to the police dog nursing home not only allowed Zhang Zian to complete Feng Xuan’s task, he would also be able to let the elfins see the fireworks, killing two birds with one stone.

The only question was, when to leave?

Fu Tao and the police dog nursing home weren’t going anywhere, but Pi still wasn’t able to leave the pet store. If Pi couldn’t witness the fireworks, Pi would be bitter.

Getting the fireworks was the top priority, and if there was no other choice, then they’d have to go without Pi.

Having sent off Wang Qian and Li Kun, Zhang Zian cleaned the shop alone. Once he finished, he noticed that it was already past 9 in the morning. Today was a workday, the Qidian editor should already be at work, so he leaned on the door frame as he took out his phone and tapped on the bald monk’s profile picture.

Every editor is in charge of a few hundred authors, so Zhang Zian wouldn’t usually disturb the editor, but today was a unusual circumstance.

He tried his best to explain the whole situation, and nervously awaited the response.

Zhang Zian thought that he was going to have to wait a few minutes, yet unexpectedly, the reply came quickly, “Don’t worry about it. Stabilize the rate of your updates.

Although the words used were short, Zhang Zian knew he was being supportive or else he wouldn’t have said, “Don’t worry about it.”

Just as he was about to put his phone away, there was another message, “Get ready to become premium on New Year’s Eve.”

Zhang Zian was instantly a mess. Today was the Chinese Off Year, that means there’s only less than a week left before he became premium. His estimation of having to wait for another two to three weeks before the test to become premium was off.
