How come the celestial technique I stole is so powerful?! Chapter 61 - 61 61 The Fish Took the Bait

61: Chapter 61 The Fish Took the Bait 61: Chapter 61 The Fish Took the Bait Lin Xiaosu did not refuse her personal protection.

Because he also couldn’t guarantee what choice Du Lifeng would make.

The bait had been cast.

Whether the fish would bite, no one knew.

Zhou i was thinking of protecting him.

He was also thinking of protecting her.

They just needed this one night, and by tomorrow morning, he would know Du Lifeng’s final choice.

So, tonight, there would be a switch of personnel in the Detective Agency.

As the sun set and night fell, Lin Xiaosu and Zhou i strolled along the street and then entered the Detective Agency, closing the main door from the outside, signaling that the night mode was in operation.

Across the street in a grocery store, a middle-aged aunty watched their departing figures, her expression lively, as she picked up the phone to call her son…

“Son, it’s ti for you to start dating…

Can you figure out if soone’s suitable from ho?

The key point is you need to date!…

Look at the Detective Agency across from , they’ve had another woman stay overnight.

I’m telling you, finding soone to sleep with is crucial…

What?

I should send you money?

You want to spend twenty thousand a month to find won?

That young detective over there, did he ask his mother for money?

Don’t use being broke as an excuse!

Can’t you earn it yourself?

Why can he?…”

After a bout of chastisent, full of examples for comparison, the trivial matter of Lin Xiaosu bringing Zhou i upstairs to sleep had turned him into the standard template of “soone else’s child”…

All that could be said was, it is hard to be a parent in this world.

After going upstairs, Zhou i pushed open Miao Ruolan’s room to take a quick glance.

It looked casual, but don’t forget, she was a cop.

Her eyesight might not be as miraculous as Lin’s, but she had her focus – soone had slept in the bed, and alone at that, hmm, this detail was crucial.

Then, she entered Lin Xiaosu’s room.

Soone was sleeping on Lin Xiaosu’s bed as well, and also alone.

A cursory glance at the two rooms seed to yield a conclusion: if the two people from the Detective Agency weren’t in the habit of “sleeping separately after handling their business,” then the two probably still had a clean relationship.

“I heard you’ve developed a bad habit of staying up all night recently.

Tonight, I’ll give you a full night to get so proper sleep!” Lin Xiaosu pointed to the bed: “Get on!”

Zhou i hesitated slightly: “It might not be safe tonight.”

“Don’t worry, I’m ninety-nine percent sure they won’t co!”

“What if they do?”

“Even if that happens, the person who cos will not be soone you can handle.

Staring out the window with wide eyes won’t be much different from sleeping with your eyes closed.”

“That’s quite a deaning statent, but why do I still sense a bit of concern?” Zhou i blinked.

“Now you know I treat you well, right?

So how about getting your mom to reduce the rent?”

Zhou i’s eyes widened suddenly: “You…

you…”

“Co on, do you think I’m a detective for nothing?

Not even knowing who rented out the place?” Lin Xiaosu said, “When you found that great shop location for with just one phone call, and the landlord was so easy to talk to, I thought she had taken a fancy to either or Miao Ruolan and was planning to arrange a benefit for her silly son or old daughter.

So I did a little digging.

Without investigation, I would not have realized, and then I found out that I almost missed your kindness; it turns out the house is actually yours…”

Zhou i gave him a sidelong glance: “You already said my mom is easygoing, and the rent is already low; you still want to lower it?”

“Alright, alright, no reduction it is.

Happy now?

Go to sleep!”

Zhou i handed over her phone and charger: “Charge this up for .”

The charger on the bedside table was already occupied by Lin Xiaosu, who looked around for another outlet.

Zhou i said, “There’s another socket behind the desk…”

This confird it; the house was indeed hers, she knew it well, even the sockets hidden by the desk.

Zhou i lay down, took off her jacket but not the clothes inside, and even her gun remained under the covers.

She occupied a small space, lying against the wall, leaving a large space on the outside.

As a girl, of course, she couldn’t actively invite him onto the bed, but as long as it wasn’t too pretentious, he’d probably get onto the bed himself.

Tonight, overall, had nothing to do with romance; it was just a cohabitation or shared bed due to special circumstances.

If it were just for sleeping, any room on the second floor would do.

But tonight, there was a potential assassination threat.

Only by being together could they look out for each other.

Therefore, though there were three rooms, they could only squeeze into one.

Zhou i fell asleep quickly.

Lin Xiaosu didn’t sleep; he turned off the main light and set the desk lamp to its lowest setting.

He moved silently to the window and sat cross-legged.

Ancient Martial, the more he practiced, the more addictive it beca.

Why?

With every practice session, there was progress.

With the assistance of his Sea of Consciousness Silver Fish, the ambiguous ridians beca a visible grid through his inner vision.

What was most difficult for others, the sensing of ridians, for him, was like seeing with the naked eye.

So, his breakthrough of the ridians was as simple as eating beans.

In just over ten days, he had cleared the body’s two major vessels, the Ten Major ridians, and the Eight Extraordinary ridians.

This, even Ruolan didn’t know.

Why?

Because Lin Xiaosu himself knew how filthy the stuff expelled from his body was, and Ruolan was the kind of person who pounced to wash his clothes whenever he changed them, so every ti he ditated, he would take off all his clothes.

But not tonight.

Tonight, with Zhou i lying on the bed, if he stripped down completely, and the young girl opened her eyes and asked, “What are you doing?”

How would he respond?

That was sothing not even a river could wash away…

Forget it, it’s just clothes; let them get dirty!

Lin Xiaosu began another major project to open up the ridians within his body.

The project concerned the Minor ridians.

Within the human body, there are two primary, ten major, and eight extraordinary ridians that ordinary people understand, but in fact, there are countless Minor ridians.

Where are these Minor ridians?

All over the body!

When you scratch your arm with a hair, you feel it, don’t you?

How is that sensation transmitted?

Through the peripheral endings of the nerves, which are also Minor ridians…

The Rejuvenation Skill states that there are nurous ridians, which can freely combine; wherever they combine, there will be miraculous effects.

This statent gave Lin Xiaosu quite a shock, and he thought, what if I open up all the ridians throughout my body and form channels for the True Qi flow.

Once the highway is completed, the stage for various combinations will also be set.

In the future, if I want to pay special attention to a certain part of the body, I just need to let the True Qi flow through these already established channels, won’t that save trouble?

This could be ambition, or it could also be described as laziness—too lazy to contemplate the routing issue, better to get the infrastructure right first, and as for later, let the True Qi run wild wherever it pleases…

The True Qi flowed within the body, and the slight pain evoked a term called: pain yet pleasure.

Ti flew by quickly.

Fengcheng gradually quieted down.

And in the silence, the pale light of dawn started showing in the east.

Lin Xiaosu opened his eyes and inwardly cursed.

He got up and headed to the bathroom; water trickled as he used the shower gel repeatedly.

Finally clean, he picked up his clothes to continue washing.

Everything tidied up, the day had already brightened.

Lin Xiaosu, feeling refreshed, put on clean clothes and opened the bathroom door, only to see Zhou i sitting up, staring blankly at the other half of the large bed.

That half of the large bed was untouched.

People like them could tell at a glance whether soone had slept on a bed or not.

“Did you sleep on the floor last night?” Zhou i asked.

“Now you know, I’m a man of my word!

Rember to call Lin Junzi from now on…” Lin Xiaosu said.

“Pssh!

A gentleman just because you slept on the floor?

Have you heard the saying, ‘As long as one’s intentions are pure, monks and nuns can share a pillow’?

The fact that you didn’t dare to get on the bed just proves that your intentions aren’t pure!”

“Damn it!” Lin Xiaosu said, “With that said, it seems I must get onto the bed!

Make so room inside…”

“I’m off to work!

The whole bed’s yours!” Zhou i leaped down and ran for the door.

As she reached the door, Zhou i’s cheeks were still flushed.

Behind she heard a voice:

“Lend your car for a few days.”

Zhou i shook her head: “Lending money is fine, but a car…

I never lend that to anyone other than my close girlfriends!

Bye…”

“You only have eight thousand in your account, what’s there to lend?

Leave the car keys!”

Zhou i turned around, sizing him up: “Are you serious?”

“Serious!”

“Why do you need the car?”

“Because I don’t have a driving license, I probably wouldn’t be able to rent a car.

Can only ask friends to lend one.”

Zhou i’s eyes widened…

Not having a driving license is a reason to borrow a car?

Shouldn’t that be a reason not to lend one?

But she is no ordinary person; her eyes gradually settled: “What on earth are you planning to do?”

“Last night, nobody ca to assassinate us, which proves our prediction was correct, Dongzi has theoretically fled!”

“You want to chase after him?”

“What else?

Why else would I have made him run?”

“Let’s go together!”

“No!

You can’t be involved in this journey.”

Zhou i slowly opened her small bag, holding the keys with a conflicted heart.

He alone going after him?

And the other party is a Genetic Person, no one knows where he has gone, no one knows if it’s back to a Genetic People’s lair, if that’s the case, it wouldn’t matter if it was just him or her, or if they dragged the whole Criminal Investigation Team along, they would likely be facing imminent death.

“Little Su, you can’t be so rash!

I’m serious!

Why don’t…

we discuss it with Captain Zhang first?”

“It’s too late for that!” Lin Xiaosu’s hand extended gently, taking the keys directly from her palm: “Don’t worry, I won’t break any traffic laws!”

“Is this about you breaking the laws or not?

We’re discussing the fate of your head…”

“Then you should be even more at ease, I have my trump card!”

The voice ca from downstairs.

By the ti Zhou i got to the door, the car that was stopped outside had already started and blended into the traffic flow.

Zhou i raised her hand and pressed it lightly against her forehead.

I must be crazy, handing my car over to soone who doesn’t even have a driver’s license, and he’s off to pursue an extrely dangerous Genetic Person…

You have a trump card!

What kind of trump card do you have?

It’s not like you inherit ancient martial arts just because you’ve kept company with an Ancient Martial Inheritor.

Besides, as far as I’ve observed, you two didn’t even sleep together…

Still, he does seem to have so skills.

Like when Huang San and his n ambushed him in the alley, and he laid them down effortlessly.

And like yesterday, when he silently plucked a hair from the Genetic Person’s head, a move so swift that even she, attentive and close at hand, couldn’t see clearly.
