S-Class Judge: My ability is parasitism.

Xu Nuo was also stunned.

He didn't understand fish, but the "ruling the world" aura emanating from this fish was straightforward and awe-inspiring.

It is completely different from those agile thunder dragons; when still, it is like a mountain, and when in motion, it is like flowing black metal.

"This... is indeed ridiculously handsome."

"I knew no man could resist!" Pan Yuan chuckled, but his hands began to professionally warm and dilute the water, meticulously following the procedure.

Only after all the indicators were confirmed to be correct did he gently lift the black dragon with his large hand and place it into the main tank that had been prepared.

The large tank's lighting system has different levels.

Pan Yuan first turned off the main lights, leaving only a few dim nightlights.

The black dragon calmly circled the murky water, seemingly familiarizing itself with its new kingdom.

Then, Pan Yuan took a deep breath and turned on the full tank lighting with a "snap".

In an instant, the light overflowed!

Under the ample and soft light, the black dragon's entire body became even deeper and purer, while its sharp golden frame was fully activated, reflecting a dazzling and majestic light.

"Holy crap..." Pan Yuan stared at the vat for a long time before muttering, "Awesome... damn awesome."

Xu Nuo didn't speak, but simply nodded. The two grown men stood or squatted in the attic, watching a tank of water, a few fish, and the changing light and shadow.

It wasn't until the butler gently knocked on the door to remind them that dinner was ready that the two of them suddenly realized that their legs were a little numb.

As she went downstairs, Xu Nuo turned back and glanced at the dazzling pavilion one last time.

Pan Yuan put his arm around his shoulder, his face still flushed with excitement: "So? How deep is this pit?"

Xu Nuo smiled and shook his head.

What he was really thinking was: This is more than just raising fish. This is clearly bringing a fascinating microcosm home using the power of money.

Having money certainly allows one to be so willful... It's exhilarating.

Ding Dong!

A short message pop-up appears.

After glancing at the message, Xu Nuo felt incredibly happy.

"Ah~, my first month's salary."

After dinner, Xu Nuo and Pan Yuan also felt bored, after all, they were both old-fashioned and didn't like playing games.

So all I can do is watch videos.

Pan Yuan sneaked into Xu Nuo's room with two walnuts in his pocket:

"Xiao Xu, what are you busy with?"

"Watching videos, what else could I be doing?"

"Shall we go for a walk?"

"Sure, this will help me digest."

The two chatted casually and ended up at the buffet restaurant where Xu Nuo had lunch.

"Huh? How did I get here?"

"What? You were here before?"

"Huh? Ni Shihua invited me to lunch here, and we've come all this way."

"There's a bar right here, let's go in, have a seat, and get a drink."

"this……"

"What's wrong?"

"Take a look at this." Xu Nuo took out the business card that the landlady had given him earlier.

"A business card? What does that mean? The bar owner gave it to me; she said it's for a discount. And..."

"Tch~, who do you think I am, Pan Yuan? I wouldn't begrudge such a small amount of money."

"Oh my, let me finish. She said this involves some kind of special service."

"Special services? What special services? You're not thinking about... you know, are you?" Pan Yuan asked with a look of disgust.

"What are you thinking? Do you think I'm that kind of person? If this proprietress is just hitting on me, that's fine, but I'm afraid there might be something shady going on behind the scenes," Xu Nuo said with a serious expression.

"Why are you bothering with that? This is the police's business. Why are you worrying about it? Didn't I tell you not to meddle? Go inside!"

"Okay!" Xu Nuo didn't throw away the business card. He had a bad feeling that the business card might come in handy.

Just now, he noticed several people entering the bar with business cards. They were all young people like himself. After showing their cards to the security personnel, they were guided away. There were men and women among them.

During this time, a middle-aged drunk man asked the security guards what these young men were doing, and the security guards said they were members.

"What kind of membership is this? It's so mysterious. I want one too."

"I'm sorry, sir, not everyone can become a member."

"Pah! You even installed it? I've got plenty of money, hurry up!"

"I'm sorry, sir, if you continue to cause trouble here, we'll have to kick you out." The security guard gestured to two of his men, who then dragged the drunk man several dozen meters away.

Xu Nuo and Pan Yuan also sensed that something was definitely fishy, ​​but they didn't want to get involved. When they entered the bar, Xu Nuo didn't show his business card.

The two simply found a place to sit down and ordered an alcoholic beverage.

"Brother Pan, have you noticed anything wrong?" Xu Nuo whispered in Pan Yuan's ear.

"Something's not right? It seems a bit quiet. At this hour, the bar should be bustling." Pan Yuan frowned and subconsciously put down the drink he was about to drink.

"Something's really off here. So many people came in, but now we can't see many people at all," Xu Nuo explained the strange situation in detail.

"There is indeed a problem here, but I have no evidence and don't want to cause any more trouble. Let's go back quickly." Pan Yuan snatched the drink from Xu Nuo's hand, threw it on the table, and pulled him out of the bar.

To be honest, the two of them were a little flustered during the process, but nothing dangerous actually happened.

"Hmm, I think we might be overthinking things." Pan Yuan took out a walnut from his pocket and continued to play with it.

"I hope so. So what was the purpose of bringing me in? Just so I wouldn't drink?" Xu Nuo was speechless. She had clearly said she wasn't going to come in.

"Just think of it as a rollercoaster ride for your soul, stop complaining, sweetheart. Go back and have the housekeeper make you some orange juice," Pan Yuan teased.

"Hehe~, don't you have to go to work tomorrow? What if your fish dies?"

"Damn! Yeah, what am I going to do with my fish? Good brother, you have to keep an eye on them for me! Take good care of them." Pan Yuan grabbed Xu Nuo's arm with a walnut in each hand, as if entrusting his orphan to someone on his deathbed.

"That's enough, don't get too carried away. You're not that busy lately! Just take a break, and things will settle down after a few days."

"Hehe! I just wanted to add some fun to my life! I'll ask the team leader for leave right now."

A few minutes later, Pan Yuan's desperate cries could be heard again.

"Oh my god! What's going on? Old Gao won't approve my leave!"

"Let me see what's going on?" Xu Nuo leaned over.

Pan Yuan sent a message: Why? Captain, why are you doing this to me?

Gao Shen: Xu Nuo is on vacation, the team is very busy right now and short-handed.

Pan Yuan: You old Gao, don't think I don't know, you just want me to handle more documents, no way!

Gao Shen: Sigh~, I'm not that much of a labor-intensive worker. The bureau has another job coming up, and I didn't have the heart to ask Xu Nuo to come back and help. You have to come over tomorrow.

Gao Shen sent another "I can't do anything about it" emoji!

Pan Yuan cursed, "Damn it! That damned Lao Gao, ever since I started working with him, there's been no shortage of trouble!"
