"You know that I don't trust you one bit, right?" Pigsy says with a huff. What is happening right now is that Redson is now sitting in the middle of his restaurant. Redson didn't really want to be here. Not by a long shot, since the pig demon isn't really the best of moods as of right now. I mean, who can blame him. Everyone is on edge and worried for the monkey boy. They have no idea where he is or if he's okay. That is what Redson can understand. But it still didn't help that the pig would always glare daggers into him any chance he got.

He didn't want to be here. What's so ever...

But he did promise Mei they would continue their search for the noodle boy. And he hates to admit it, but...he was also worried for MK's well being as well. Not that he cared! He just wants his number one enemy back so they can get back to their brawls and weekly fights. That's all. Nothing else...

"I know fully well that you do not trust me. I am just here to pick up the dragon girl so we can get back to the search," He blinked as he looked at Pigsy, only for the demon pig's glare to deepen, "No harm will come to her," He quickly added, causing Pigsy's glare to lighten up a bit, just a smidge.

"Sorry that I don't fully believe you...I lost one kid, I don't want to lose another," He says under his breath. The fire demon can tell that the father figure has slept less these past couple of days. Again, makes sense since they have heard nothing of MK. No texts, no calls, no clues on where he could be. It makes sense why Pigsy and Tang would be sad at these times.

"And I promise that I will keep an eye on her..." Redson paused a bit before his cheeks turned a slight red, "N-not because I care! I just need her to be okay because if anyone could find the noodle boy, it would be her!"

Surprisingly, Pigsy lets out a small chuckle and a small playful eye roll, "Sure, I'll believe ya, kid,"

"KID??!?!-"

"Ayo! RedBoy!" Mei shouted as she walked in the restaurant, "Ready to get to searching?!"

Redson turned around to see his...friend? And to be honest, to him, she's not that bad looking- compared to what she looked like a couple of days ago. She looked way worse. It Looks like Mei has refused to sleep until her best friend comes back home. On the first day of MK's disappearance, she didn't get an ounce of sleep. She would continue on her search in the middle of the night, searching the streets, just to see if she hasn't missed a single spot they he might have gone to. Maybe Mei got tricked into drinking Sandy's sleepy tea.

"Sure..." The fire prince muttered as he got up from his seat and walked over to the entrance.

"Don't worry Pigsy! We'll find MK today!" She yelled before grabbing a hold of Redson's hand and pulled him away to start their search.

"You always say that..." Pigsy mutters to himself quietly as he starts to make his next order.

"Are you allergic to anything?" Huntsmen asks as he starts to pull out today's lunch, to which Bai He replies with a head shake, indicating no. At least that is one less thing huntsmen had to worry about.

On today's menu, he tried giving the girl a couple of soup dumplings. She seemed very pleased with the food that was given to her. She started to enjoy her meal, with yet again, the spider demon watching her, but mostly eyeing the food she is eating.

It always confused the girl on why he couldn't get anything for himself. He always managed to get food for her, surely he would have enough money to make or buy some for himself.

Again, she couldn't eat all the food for herself. It was too big of a portion for her. She quietly got up from her bed and walked over to the demon. Gently, she placed the plate on his lap before going back to her spot on the bed and immediately sat down.
