Well, karma cos swiftly.
Building up such a heroic image in public ans one needs the resolve of a hero.
But it’s not a bad deal, getting to stay on longer at the police station.
Who knows, in a few years, I might even work my way up to Police Chief?
Three years and another three, if I don’t make a move, I’ll beco the top dog!
Just like Tang, Tang was never formally trained either.
"After I finish my show and deal with the magic at the theater, if I have ti, I’ll help you out," Jiang Shu clarified.
"Okay," Wolf imdiately nodded in satisfaction; he knew Jiang Shu well.
Since Jiang Shu had given in, he would definitely help next ti he was asked.
Without any small talk, the two ended their conversation, and Jiang Shu stood up. There was nothing for him to do at Magic House today; in fact, there had been little to do recently.
So, he was preparing to go ho. Su Xiaoou’s monthly exam could wait until next ti; after all, he hadn’t figured out what to test her on yet.
He’d prefer to put her straight into real-life situations, as magicians ultimately perform for an audience.
He no longer lived at Black Currant Theater. Liu Tingruo had outright bought the villa in A1 District.
They used Tang’s inheritance, so neither of them felt the pinch.
Moreover, Tang himself also needed a place to stay; he lived in a paper house in the basent of the villa with Aishania and Red Clo.
However, Liu Tingruo hadn’t settled there; after a brief stay, she returned to the Fifth District.
The woman might seem lazy, but deep down, she was a workaholic. She needed to rush off to the Fifth District to continue her research, including but not limited to spiritual power, resurrection, spiritual bodies, and new research in artificial intelligence.
Jiang Shu also needed her help to better infiltrate the Fifth District’s internet, becoming a War God of the internet at a critical mont.
So now, the villa housed Lang Tai, Fish Mother, and Rat Man—a complete zoo.
Oh, and there was also a family of three Papern in the basent.
—
"So, who exactly is Rift?" Jiang Shu asked as he took the little paperman Red Clo from the basent and placed him on his hand.
"Gary, don’t you know?" Red Clo blinked back with big eyes but then suddenly exclaid "oh," as if realizing sothing, "Right, you didn’t go to Thirteen District, so you didn’t use him."
"What?" Jiang Shu blinked, listening to Red Clo...
Were there still many things he didn’t understand?
"The Clo that saved Gary gave him a full set of new prosthetics," Red Clo continued, "Very strong in combat, but the side effects are quite clear."
"Hmm?" Jiang Shu was quick to catch on, "Cyber Syndro?"
"Exactly, that suit’s CSI index is quite unsafe; even a healthy person using it could have issues, and with Gary’s physical defects, the amount of prosthetics he needed was even greater." Red Clo explained casually, "Plus his influence on Gary, the chance of Gary developing Cyber Syndro was almost a hundred percent."
"So what then? What does he want to do?" Jiang Shu frowned.
"He just told Gary one more thing." Red Clo suddenly smiled, a bit eerily, "You possess the word ’Calm’."
Jiang Shu looked at the paperman Red Clo, who was now lying on his hand with legs crossed, an unconcerned look about him.
But Jiang Shu’s back suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
An ominous feeling blood in his heart.
