Wake Up As Gay Werewolf Prince [BL]

60 WHO IS THE KILLER?

When he opened his eyes in the morning, the first thing that fell into his sight was the familiar ceiling. It was indeed a familiar sight to him, and Bai Chen breathed a sigh of relief when he discovered that he was still alive.

Last night, he had made a firm decision when he spoke to the little wolf named Bai Lang.

[“I don’t want to die,” Bai Chen firmly answered the wolf’s question. “The real Bai Chen in this world must have suffered a lot just because he was the Emperor’s unwanted son. It’s not his fault that he was born as a concubine’s son, and he doesn’t deserve bad treatment from people in this empire. He is the Emperor’s son as well, and he deserves all the respect of the people of this empire.”

Suddenly, Bai Chen’s eyes seemed to burn with determination as he imagined how the real Bai Chen in this world was suffering when it wasn’t even his fault. The Emperor and his mother were having an affair, but he had become a victim and was treated unfairly.

He lived in Bai Chen’s body now, and he wanted to help the poor man get what he deserved.

That was his decision, and Bai Lang looked satisfied after hearing it. Smiling at the young man, the little wolf spoke again, “That’s a good decision. Even if the path you choose won’t be easy for you, you must remember that I’m here to help you when you need something. Remember that you are not alone in this world, Bai Chen.”

Bai Chen was stunned when he heard Bai Lang’s words. Since the first time they met when he had just died, the two had often bickered, and Bai Lang would often scold Bai Chen instead of comforting him like that.

What the little wolf had just done was unexpected, and Bai Chen didn’t know how to react. For some reason, he felt a connection with the wolf, and he felt less worried after hearing how the wolf comforted him.

He didn’t know what to say, and it was Bai Lang again who broke the silence between them, “If you don’t have any other questions, then I’ll be leaving now.”

.....

Hearing that Bai Lang was about to leave, Bai Chen widened his eyes before getting up from the bed. “Wait!” He exclaimed before Bai Lang could disappear from his sight. “I still have a question, and it’s about Bai Chen’s mother.”

Bai Lang looked amused when he heard Bai Chen’s words and finally agreed to postpone his departure. “What do you want to know about Bai Chen’s mother?” The little wolf asked while giving Bai Chen a chance to ask a question.

“I read in the book that Bai Chen’s mother died of food poisoning,” Bai Chen began. “But there’s no information about how the case ended, nor is there any information about the killer. Do you know something about that?”

The question sounded stupid because Bai Chen knew that Bai Lang knew everything in this world, but he asked the little wolf anyway.

“No information means the case is closed without finding out who the killer is,” Bai Lang replied casually, and Bai Chen furrowed his brows upon hearing the answer.

“How could it be like that?” The young man asked again. “How could they close the case without finding the real culprit?”

In his previous life, Bai Chen knew how some murder cases were closed even if the police didn’t find the real culprit, but he also thought that such unsolved cases were unfair. Even if Bai Chen’s mother was only a concubine in the palace, her death should not be ignored.

The young Prince was still frowning as he continued to think that it would be unfair to Bai Chen and his mother, but Bai Lang only smiled calmly before replying, “About that, it’s your job to solve the case, Bai Chen.”

And right after the wolf finished speaking, it disappeared into thin air before even Bai Chen could open his mouth to ask another question. He actually wanted to know the meaning behind Bai Lang’s words, but instead of getting the chance to ask, he suddenly saw a familiar translucent screen flash before his eyes along with a familiar robotic voice.

{DING!

A NEW MISSION WAS UNLOCKED:

FIND THE REAL CULPRIT BEHIND THE DEATH OF BAI CHEN’S MOTHER

ACCEPT | REJECT}

Bai Chen was silent, but now he could understand the meaning behind Bai Lang’s words earlier. He was the one who should have found the culprit, and that was why the little wolf had not given him any clues.

“How many points will I get from the mission?” He might sound greedy, but Bai Chen still had to know about what he would get from the mission.

{THE HOST WILL EARN 100 POINTS FROM THE MISSION}

100 points was a lot, and since Bai Chen was also curious about the murder case that happened many years ago, he decided to accept the mission, “I will accept the mission, but can you tell me the deadline for the mission?”

Bai Chen still had a mission in progress, and now that he got another mission, he was curious about the time he could spend on completing the mission.

{THE HOST SHOULD NOT WORRY BECAUSE THERE IS NO DEADLINE FOR THIS MISSION}

He expected the system would give him a deadline right away, and he was surprised to hear how lenient the system was. “Are you sure there’s no time limit for this mission?” He asked to be sure.

{THE SYSTEM CAN GIVE A TIME LIMIT FOR THE HOST IF THE HOST INSISTS}

It was like the sarcasm of the system, and Bai Chen was speechless.]

Carrying his body to sit on his bed, Bai Chen sighed heavily as he recalled his conversation with Bai Lang and the system last night. Fortunately, his points would not decrease even if he sighed non-stop, and he could only use the opportunity to lament this morning.

He had accepted the mission, so he had to start looking for information about it. Perhaps the real Bai Chen didn’t have the chance to reveal everything, and it was his duty to do everything he could to uncover his secret.

“Are you awake, Your Highness? Would you like me to prepare a bath for you?”

Bai Chen was still sitting on the bed, but then he could hear Ma Qiao’s voice from outside the pavilion. It was early in the morning, so it was only natural for the servant to ask him that question.

It was a good idea to have a hot bath on this chilly morning, but since he was too lazy to shout an answer to the servant’s question, he chose to get out of bed before walking towards the door.

It was like a habit to him, and he was able to casually open the door as he expected to see Ma Qiao at the door. He also expected that the servant would scold him because he came out in only his undergarments, but instead of feeling scared, Bai Chen felt that the scolding was funny.

Thus, he casually opened the door while he was still wearing his undergarments. But then he froze. He froze on the spot because instead of finding Ma Qiao at the door, he saw Zhu Ge smiling sweetly at him.
