How come the celestial technique I stole is so powerful?!-Chapter 204: It Seems the Trouble Has Been Exposed

To be fair, his hand pressed on his own Dantian, quite a distance from that place. In his profession, he had seen many stimulating scenes and was usually in control, so why did he almost lose control this time?

It must be the True Qi stimulation.

You little bastard, you did it on purpose...

There was no one in the Detective Agency.

Zhou Xi and Miao Ruolan were taking a walk outside.

Suddenly, across the street, they saw the door of the Detective Agency open.

Zhou Xi smiled lightly, "Brother Lin is so well-behaved and actually came back at night."

Miao Ruolan didn’t know how to respond...

She gave her a glare...

Zhou Xi’s eyes twinkled, "I have plans with Li Fang tonight, I’ll sleep over at her place... Bye!"

She parted from Miao Ruolan and ran off.

Miao Ruolan’s heart was beating fast.

This might just be a confirmation.

Confirmation that this girl actually knew about her and him last night...

She had actually been confirming it since the early morning...

Before, when she and Lin Xiaosu had no substantial events, the girl would always tease about these sensitive issues, but today, she didn’t tease.

When unusual things happen, there must be something behind it.

And now, seeing Lin Xiaosu come back, she had already gone to sleep at a classmate’s place.

What does that mean?

Could it be that she called out last night? Heaven knows, Miao Ruolan could swear on her already non-existent chastity, she was very careful and controlled, but the little rascal was too good at it, she couldn’t be sure if she had momentarily lost herself...

Full of excitement and nervousness, Miao Ruolan entered the Detective Agency and closed the door behind her.

Inside, Lin Xiaosu smiled lightly, "Zhou Xi isn’t coming back to sleep?"

"She said... she is sleeping at a classmate’s place." Miao Ruolan lowered her head, not daring to meet his eyes.

"Found out?" Lin Xiaosu asked.

"I think so..." Miao Ruolan held her face, "It’s okay that she found out, but don’t tell your little Ye... we’re just practicing, if she knows she’ll definitely misunderstand..."

This is truly saying one thing and meaning another.

Since it was under the guise of practicing, naturally on this autumn night, they could practice well.

In the end, Miao Ruolan couldn’t hold it together.

It was not that she was not reserved; in fact, she was the most in control of herself.

The key was Lin Xiaosu’s special condition.

Currently, his True Qi was overflowing.

Shaking hands with people made them feel incredibly comfortable.

Much less doing something inherently highly stimulating...

Heaven, no matter how much you don’t want it to dawn, it still dawns.

Bed, no matter how much you don’t want to get up, you still have to get up.

Miao Ruolan got out of bed, cleaned herself thoroughly, and stood before the bathroom mirror. For the first time in her life, she genuinely felt that the person in the mirror looked quite good.

Is this the look of being nourished?

She grabbed her own face, a bit mesmerized...

When Zhou Xi came in from outside, Miao Ruolan was sitting alone on the sofa in the Detective Agency...

"Brother Lin isn’t up yet?" Zhou Xi glanced at the stairs.

"He’s on a business trip."

"Ah? Just returned for a few days and already on a business trip? Where to?"

"Biannan Province."

"Oh, that’s right, it makes sense. After all, a big boss came all the way without hesitation to transfer one hundred and fifty thousand. It’s indeed not suitable to make them come a second time."

In Zhou Xi’s understanding, this was related to Lin Xiaosu and Xueyu Pavilion’s business dealings.

Miao Ruolan nodded lightly, she understood it the same way.

Zhou Xi’s gaze slowly shifted over, carrying a bit of mystery...

Miao Ruolan felt flustered under this gaze, why so mysterious? Please don’t joke; with some things, before they become a fact, joking is fine, but once they become real, jokes shouldn’t be made...

"Sister Lan, last night, I heard some news."

When Miao Ruolan heard the words "last night," her heart wavered, and hearing official-sounding words in the back, she was slightly stunned, "What news?"

"Three days ago, there was a murder in Tashan."

"A murder? How come I didn’t know?"

"This murder was quite horrifying. To avoid public panic, the police blocked the news. Do you know who is investigating the case?" Zhou Xi said, "The First Detective of Jiangcheng, He Jiang!"

When she spoke these words, Zhou Xi’s expression was a bit peculiar.

The First Detective of Jiangcheng, He Jiang, and the top Detective Agency of Jiangcheng, these terms had been mentioned many times in the course of the two women’s history. Zhou Xi had even said before: we strive to build Fengcheng Detective Agency into a top Detective Agency like Jiangcheng’s.

From this, it can be seen that Jiangcheng’s top Detective Agency was her goal.

"He Jiang came personally?" Miao Ruolan’s heart also skipped a beat.

"Not only did he come personally, but he also had a face-to-face with our... Brother Lin!"

Miao Ruolan stared in shock, "Yesterday, when Zhou Mei borrowed him, was it for this?"

"Yes, originally borrowed for half an hour, then borrowed until dark to return. I admit I had some scandalous, lewd thoughts. I confess I’m vulgar and ashamed. I assumed the worst of the officer, thinking Brother Lin was playing with her, but Brother Lin was playing with... the First Detective of Jiangcheng."

"Playing?" Miao Ruolan accurately caught a word.

"Yes, the renowned First Detective of Jiangcheng, his case judgment was overturned by our Brother Lin on the spot. Brother Lin acted, and within an hour caught the real culprit..." Zhou Xi got more excited as she spoke, finally hugging Miao Ruolan’s shoulders and shaking them vigorously, "Sister Lan, we don’t need to look up to Jiangcheng’s top Detective Agency. Our Brother Lin is stronger than Jiangcheng’s First Detective!"

Miao Ruolan gave her a gaze, "I’ve never looked up to Jiangcheng’s top Detective Agency. I’ve always believed he is the strongest."

Yes, the murder case has been declassified.

Because the case had been solved, there was no need to hide it anymore.

Of course, only limited to the case itself.

As for the secret of the stone tower, currently only Chief Zhang and Zhou Mei knew in the county.

Outside the county?

Chief Zhang contacted someone, whom he met after his genetic surgery.

That person showed him a badge and told him that in the most special circumstances, he can bypass the higher-ups and contact him directly.

This is probably the special nature of the Genetic Police.

After becoming a Genetic Police, his identity was not just a county-level Criminal Investigation Team leader.

As for Lin Xiaosu, he left Fengcheng and headed back to the Southern Border.

In the past month, he drew a circle on the map of Daxia. If the starting point of this circle was the Southern Border, then the endpoint was also the Southern Border.

Because his journey to the Northwest started from the Southern Border.

If it wasn’t for the realistic crisis in Peacock Valley, he wouldn’t have encountered Kun Cang so quickly, nor embarked on his journey to the Northwest so soon.

Now back from the Northwest, he brought the key to the Southern Border’s problem.

He also carried some complex thoughts...

He once told Yixiang, he would come back.

What was he coming back for?

He candidly told Yixiang, the goal was very clear, it was Peacock Valley.

When he said this, he considered himself very proper and serious, each word gleaming with normal light, somewhat heroic.

But, he couldn’t resist Blue Demon’s interpretation...

In the Miao people’s dictionary, Peacock Valley refers to the female organ.

Heroically telling a Miao beauty that his straightforward goal when he returns is the Peacock Valley, what would she think?

This somewhat embarrassing, scandalous, and hard-to-face matter was put aside for now.

First, solve another matter.

That is Old Zhou of Xueyu Pavilion’s business.

After a half-day high-speed rail journey to Taichong, the sun was setting when Lin Xiaosu exited the train station. Familiar with the route, he quickly got on an electric scooter and soon arrived outside the gates of Xueyu Pavilion.

Beside Xueyu Pavilion, there was a villa.

The villa wasn’t tall or ostentatious.

Its main feature was its elegance.

Backed by Linxian Lake, facing Cui Zhu Garden, with seven or eight plum trees in the middle, and thirteen clusters of phoenix tail bamboo outside.

In Taichong, this was very common.

But if you entered the garden, you would understand what low-key luxury with connotation means.

For example, the camellia near the pavilion, called "eighteen plates," blooms sea-bowl-sized flowers during the blooming season, each flower has eighteen layers, each time blooming eighteen flowers, no more no less, and each flower’s color varies, ultimately forming a golden thread flower belt; hence, the full name of this camellia is "Golden Silk Eighteen Plates."

How much is it worth?

It was bought for eight million!

There were about a hundred pots of such flowers in this garden.

Of course, not every pot was worth that much, but each was special...

In the pavilion, an old man sat on a wide and soft chair, holding a purple clay teapot.

He was Zhou Xiaoyu, the current helm of Xueyu Pavilion.

Opposite him was a young woman, dressed in white, wearing glasses, gentle and cultured.

Her name was Zhou Qin.

Only in front of her grandfather did she show this image.

In the Jade Industry, she was known as the "Cold-faced Princess."

Princess hinted at her noble status.

Cold-faced represented her character.

She didn’t like this nickname because in her dictionary, it wasn’t that she intended to be aloof, but because none of the men in the world deserved her genuine attention.

"Grandfather, the last time we went to Fengcheng for him, that bastard didn’t even call."

"Didn’t the girls from the Detective Agency say? He went to the Northwest," Mr. Zhou sipped his tea, "Don’t rush, just wait!"

"Why must we wait for him?" Zhou Qin said, "There are only four months left until the Yangcheng Jewelry Expo, leaving us three months to select materials and design. We can’t wait, we’ve reviewed those three pieces of material, and so have you, grandfather. Our opinions are basically the same, so let’s cut them."

"Indeed, grandfather!" A young man in a leather jacket came around from behind the eighteen-petal camellia, "For this expo, Xueyu Pavilion must present something truly eye-catching. These three pieces are the best materials, and we have the best jade cutting talent, there’s no reason not to trust ourselves but to trust an outsider, especially someone who doesn’t even qualify as a half-baked learner in jade cutting."

This man’s name was Zhou Ling, and he was Zhou Xiaoyu’s favorite grandson. He could have been a playboy but chose to inherit the family business. In jade cutting, he had a talent and earned a nickname in the Jade Industry as the "Young Master Duan Yu."
