I didn’t say anything as I watched them go. I returned to the city and turned all the Spirit Recovering Grass into Spirit Recovering Pills. After all that, I was still missing 47% experience until I reach Lv 10 alchemy. I couldn’t do anything but slowly wait.
At around 7, I got offline to get dinner with Wan Er and Dong Cheng.
“How’s [Zhan Long] doing today?” Wan Er cheerfully asked me.
I wiped my mouth, “Eh, It’s good. We PK’d and leveled a bit…..”
Dong Cheng laughed. “Brother Xiao Yao, I heard that you single-handedly challenged 200 members of [Mass Burial] in Icy Forest Graveyard and forced them to retreat. The strange thing is, everyone in the three big cities is talking about you…..”
I was speechless.
Wan Er smiled, “Hey Hey, How does it feel after using [Twin Sword Style]?”
I sighed, “The control for blocking got much better, and my attack output also increased by around 50%. The only flaw is that the attacks are too fast, so the accuracy decreases. There is still a lot of room for improvement…..”
“Oh. Good luck then!” Wan Er looked at me and said, “But, you have to practice discreetly. Don’t let anyone look at your battle records, especially ones where you’re using [Twin Sword Style]. You have no idea how many people are shadow-fighting you in order to gain experience.
“Yeah Yeah. I got it….”
“What are you doing after we eat?”
“Uhh……” I thought about it and said, “Wan Er, you can go back online or rest with Dong Cheng. I need to go over to the police department. There’s something that I need to take care of….”
“You’re leaving me and Dong Cheng behind again……” Wan Er pouted her lips, looking like a little girl throwing a fit.
I almost couldn’t help but say, “Alright, What do you want me to do with you?” But I was able to hold myself back and said, “Okay, okay, be good Wan Er. This is really important business for me.”
“Can you tell us?”
“Yeah. It has to do with one of [Zhan Long] members. Her brother went missing on Blue Water street. I need to investigate his whereabouts.”
“Okay….” Wan Er gently said, “Then I’ll go back to leveling and wait for you to come back……”
“Okay!”
……
After taking the two girls back to the dorms, I took out my cellphone and called Shen Bing.
“Hey, Li Xiao Yao? What is it? Did you miss me already?” Shen Bing’s voice was so charming that it could melt anyone’s heart.
I laughed, “Sister Shen Bing. Help me with something!”
“Heh. I knew it. What’s up?”
“Help me investigate the internet activity of someone named Qin Meng. He’s gone missing. I suspect that the Blood Scythe has something to do with it. Help me check it out, okay? As a matter of fact, I’m coming over right now, and we can investigate it together.”
“Mhmm, alright, come directly to my office in the Technology Section.”
“Yes!”
