I started by watching videos, and I chose 10,000 combat power.

We finished eating, and it was still early.

Luo Ying then suggested going to the amusement park in the mall for a while.

Luo Fei checked the time; the government service center didn't open until 2:30 PM, so he agreed.

So the four of them spent another half hour in the amusement park.

Luo Ying and Zhao Lin were having a great time, playing claw machines, basketball, and racing cars, their laughter never ceasing.

Luo Fei and Luo Yumei sat in the rest area next door, watching and chatting occasionally.

At 2:20 p.m., they left the mall and drove to the Qingyang County Government Service Center.

The central hall is spacious and bright, bustling with people.

They quickly found the "Real Estate Registration" one-stop service window.

Luo Fei handed over the necessary documents—the property ownership certificate for apartment 502 in building 8, his ID card, etc.—to the window.

The window staff took the materials, carefully checked them, and began processing the transfer procedures.

Luo Fei chose the "gift" method.

With all the materials in place, the entire process went exceptionally smoothly.

Fill out the form, sign to confirm, and pay the relevant processing fees and taxes calculated based on the assessed value.

Luo Fei didn't even blink before swiping his card to pay.

About forty minutes later, all the formalities were completed.

The staff member handed out a brand-new "Real Estate Ownership Certificate" through the window.

"Alright, Ms. Luo, here is your property ownership certificate. Please keep it safe."

Luo Yumei stretched out her hands and accepted the bright red certificate with trembling hands.

-

In the evening, Luo Fei, wearing an apron, stood in front of the stove, his spatula flying across the pot with fluid, effortless movements.

The scallions, ginger, and garlic release an enticing aroma when frying in hot oil.

Pan-fry the fish until golden brown on both sides, then drizzle with the prepared sauce and simmer over low heat.

Stir-frying leafy greens over high heat quickly preserves their crisp texture and vibrant color.

After blanching the pork ribs, they are stewed with spices, and the broth gradually becomes thick, white, and mellow.

The kitchen was filled with the sounds of pots and pans clattering, mixed with the enticing aromas of various foods.

Inside the restaurant, Luo Yumei and the two girls were already restless from the aroma.

"My brother's cooking is the best!" Luo Ying sniffed, gazing longingly toward the kitchen.

Zhao Lin nodded and whispered, "It smells even better than in restaurants."

Luo Yumei watched her nephew's busy yet composed figure, her eyes filled with satisfaction and emotion.

In just over an hour, a delicious and visually appealing dinner was served.

The simple four dishes and one soup exude an aroma that whets the appetite.

"Dinner's ready," Luo Fei said, taking off his apron.

The four sat around a table.

Luo Ying couldn't wait to pick up a piece of pork rib and put it in her mouth, her eyes immediately squinting with happiness.

"Mmm! It's delicious!"

Zhao Lin also took a bite of the steamed fish. The delicious flavor melted on her tongue, making her unable to resist picking up another piece with her chopsticks.

Luo Yumei tasted every dish, her face showing surprise and admiration.

"Xiao Fei, with your skills, you could easily open a restaurant. The food is absolutely delicious!"

She wasn't trying to flatter her; the quality of the dishes was indeed far superior to what you'd find in a typical home kitchen, and even comparable to some well-known restaurants.

Luo Fei smiled and put food into the bowls of his aunt and two younger sisters.

"Eat more if you like. Xiaoying, Linlin, you've been using a lot lately, so make sure you get plenty of nutrition."

The warm dinner proceeded amidst praise and laughter.

After the meal, Luo Yumei took the initiative to clear the dishes and wash them, while Luo Fei was pulled along by Luo Ying.

"Brother, come to the media room! Let's watch a movie!" Luo Ying said excitedly.

The home theater is located in the basement, with excellent soundproofing and equipped with professional projection and audio equipment.

Luo Ying chose a horror movie that was very popular recently.

The lights went out, the huge projection screen lit up, and eerie sound effects immediately filled the surroundings.

Luo Fei sat on a comfortable single sofa, looking at his two younger sisters with a hint of helplessness.

Luo Ying and Zhao Lin squeezed onto the largest sofa in the middle, hugging cushions and staring intently at the screen.

The movie's plot gradually shifts into a horror element.

"ah--!"

Whenever a frightening scene appears, Luo Ying will let out a soft cry, grab Zhao Lin's arm next to her, bury her face in the cushion, but can't help peeking through her fingers.

Zhao Lin was even more timid, her face was slightly pale, and her body unconsciously leaned towards Luo Ying, but her eyes were also reluctant to leave the screen.

The two girls' mixture of fear and curiosity amused Luo Fei.

He simply couldn't understand this kind of entertainment that involved deliberately torturing oneself.

Given his current mental strength and experience, the terrifying scenes in the movie couldn't stir any emotion in him whatsoever.

He can even get distracted by thinking about other things.

For example, Wang Hai and Li Li, whom I met during the day.

Although the two were insignificant and as annoying as flies, their sticky, disgusting eyes and underlying filthy thoughts made Luo Fei think twice.

My aunt and cousin will soon be living alone. Although I have arranged for two empty houses on either side as a buffer, the security can still be improved.

The movie ended with the main characters screaming and a thrilling but ultimately harmless conclusion.

The lights came back on.

Luo Ying and Zhao Lin both breathed a long sigh of relief, their faces still showing a hint of lingering fear, but their eyes were filled with satisfaction.

"It scared me to death, but it's really beautiful!" Luo Ying patted her chest.

Zhao Lin nodded and whispered, "I didn't expect that final twist..."

"You guys..." Luo Fei shook his head, stood up, "Get some rest, don't stay up too late."

I left the media room and returned to my room.

He took out his phone, found Zhou Mingyu's number, and dialed it.

The phone rang a few times before being answered.

"Comrade Luo Fei?" Zhou Mingyu's voice came through, tinged with surprise.

"Director Zhou, good evening, sorry to bother you." Luo Fei said politely.

"It's okay, go ahead and tell me."

"I have something I'd like to trouble Director Zhou with," Luo Fei cut straight to the point. "My aunt and cousin recently moved back to Qingyang and will be living in the Xuefuyuan residential complex in the county town. Today they encountered two rather questionable individuals. Although they're just minor characters, just in case, I'd like to ask if it's possible to arrange for their protection?"

On the other end of the phone, Zhou Mingyu answered almost without hesitation.

"Xiao Luo, even if you hadn't brought it up, we already had arrangements in place."

"Your aunt and cousin, as important relatives, are also within the protection zone. Plainclothes officers are currently conducting discreet patrols in their usual areas, and information is being gathered regularly."

"If you have more specific security concerns or special requirements, you can raise them, and we will adjust the protection level and plan accordingly."

Upon hearing this, Luo Fei felt a slight sense of relief.

The efficiency and attention to detail of the state apparatus are indeed thorough.

"That puts my mind at ease. There are no special requirements for now; just maintain the status quo and keep a low profile. Thank you, Director Zhou and the brothers."

"It's our duty." Zhou Mingyu paused, his tone softening. "Xiao Luo, it's good that you trust us."

Luo Fei smiled, then thought of something else.

"Director Zhou, there's something else. I have something that might be of some research value to the country, but it's not very useful to me, so I'd like to give it to you."

"Oh? What is it?" Zhou Mingyu's voice held a hint of interest and seriousness.

"An anti-gravity skateboard," Luo Fei described it in the simplest terms possible. "It's about one meter long and half a meter wide. It uses an unknown principle to achieve anti-gravity levitation and propulsion. It can reach a maximum height of ten meters above the ground, with a speed of eighty kilometers per hour. It takes three hours to charge and one hour to run."

There was a brief silence on the other end of the phone.

Even with Zhou Mingyu's status and knowledge, he was taken aback by the term "anti-gravity skateboard" and Luo Fei's description of its performance.

This is beyond the scope of current conventional technology.

"Is the source of this reliable? I mean, its safety and..." Zhou Mingyu's voice became serious.

"The source is fine, I can guarantee that. I've personally tested it, and the handling and stability are excellent. As long as you operate according to the procedures, the safety risks are controllable," Luo Fei replied confidently. "I will attach a detailed operating guide and precautions."

Zhou Mingyu remained silent for a few seconds, clearly processing and weighing the information quickly.

"Xiao Luo, if what you say is true, this thing is invaluable. On behalf of the country, I thank you for your trust and contribution!"

His tone was full of solemnity.

"In that case, I will arrange for personnel to go to Qingyang to take over. The relevant handover procedures and follow-up matters will be handled in strict accordance with confidentiality."

"Okay," Luo Fei replied. "Also, there's a 'Body Refining Technique'..."

"Body Refining Technique?" Zhou Mingyu immediately replied, his tone even more concerned. "Academician Sun's verification results on the 'Body Tempering Pill' and the special medicine formula are extremely astonishing, and have already alarmed the highest levels. The body refining technique you mentioned, is it...?"

"It's a kind of training method that can significantly improve physical fitness," Luo Fei explained. "I've recently been teaching my sister and her friends to practice it, and the results are very noticeable. If the country is interested, I can provide it."

"Interested! Of course I'm interested!" Zhou Mingyu's voice carried a hint of urgency. "Xiao Luo, what do you think? I'll arrange for someone to come to Qingyang to find you first thing tomorrow morning for the handover of the anti-gravity skateboard."

"As for the Body Refining Technique, if it's convenient for you recently, could you personally make a trip to the Dragon Tooth Special Operations Brigade in the Eastern Theater Command? Brigade Commander Yang has been hoping you could provide guidance. If the Body Refining Technique proves effective, you can pilot and teach it at the Special Operations Brigade first, and then assess its value for wider application."

Luo Fei thought for a moment.

The house back home is still under construction. My aunt's house was recently settled, and my sisters have mastered the first set of body-refining techniques. I don't really have anything urgent to do.

"Okay. I can go over after I hand over the skateboard tomorrow," Luo Fei agreed.

"Great! I'll coordinate right away!" Zhou Mingyu's voice was filled with satisfaction. "That's all for now. Xiao Luo, thank you again!"

"Director Zhou, you're too kind."

After hanging up the phone, Luo Fei walked to his desk and opened his laptop.

Compile information on basic skateboard operation methods, charging methods, safety precautions, etc.

The next morning, Luo Fei woke up on time.

Trigger selection.

[A divine choice has been triggered today.]

Option A: Obtain a 'Portable Water Purifier' (instantly purifies any water source to drinking water standards, with unlimited energy)

Option B: Obtain 'Master-level Piano Playing Techniques' (covering all genres and repertoire)

He chose A.

A palm-sized, simply designed silver disc appeared in the storage ring.

He didn't care.

I had just finished washing up and went downstairs when I heard the doorbell ring.

When the door opened, a middle-aged man with a calm and composed expression stood outside.

It was Old Wu who was responsible for protecting Luo Fei's parents.

"Good morning, Mr. Luo." Old Wu nodded slightly, his attitude respectful.

"Good morning, Lao Wu. Come in." Luo Fei stepped aside to let him in.

"I received an urgent order from Director Zhou to come here to retrieve an important item and escort it to Kyoto," Old Wu said succinctly.

Luo Fei nodded without saying anything more.

He asked Old Wu to sit in the living room for a while, and then went back to his room.

With a thought, an anti-gravity skateboard and a USB drive with a pre-copied instruction manual appeared in my hand.

He took his skateboard and USB drive back to the living room.

Luo Fei handed the items to Lao Wu, while simultaneously giving him a meaningful look.

Old Wu understood, took the skateboard and USB drive, carefully placed them into a specially made alloy case he had brought with him, and locked it.

"Mr. Luo, please rest assured, I will risk my life to ensure its safe arrival," Old Wu said solemnly, standing at attention.

"You've worked hard." Luo Fei patted him on the shoulder.

Old Wu didn't linger and quickly left with his suitcase.

A specially modified black sedan was already waiting not far from the villa.

After Lao Wu got into the car, it immediately drove away and quickly disappeared from sight.
