Resisting temptation makes you stronger? I'm going to build a base and cultivate martial arts.

Chapter 66: It's my turn to raid the nest.

"Of course, there's another reason." Fang Chi tossed the scroll in his hand. "This thing is an anomaly. If we send it back now, it will most likely be converted into points."

""

"But it's obvious it's interested in you."

""

"Although the positive effects are practically zero, the side effects are quite interesting."

"If you can develop its uses and prove its value before you go back, you can apply to stay and use it as a weapon."

"Huh?" White Wolf was a little puzzled. "The Management Bureau offers this kind of benefit?"

"It's always been available, but the process is very complicated, and it takes even longer now." Fang Chi sighed. "So I suggest you keep it for now, otherwise, once you submit it, you don't know how long it will take to get it back!"

"Okay! Let's accept the mission!" White Wolf confirmed.

Fang Chi made an OK sign with his finger, then looked down and started operating his phone.

Not long after, Fang Chi received authorization from the Administration Bureau and contacted the police to take over the case completely.

Then everyone set up camp and rested for the night.

The next day, at Yunhai University, on the fourth floor of the girls' dormitory.

"Are you freshmen? The admission results came out so quickly?" Yuan Xian looked at the three of them suspiciously.

"Yes, yes, yes! We're locals! We have some connections, so we'll be set once the scores come out." White Wolf smiled broadly. "Senior sister, we're new here and not very familiar with the area. Could you please take care of us?"

""

Don't be shy, it's fate that we met.

That might be the reason, or it might be the wolf's face.

In short, Yuan Xian nodded reservedly.

Seeing this, the white wolf presented another gift: "Thank you, Senior Sister."

Yuan Xian instinctively pushed him away: "No need."

"Oh, it's nothing, just a small token! Take it!" White Wolf handed it over without any room for argument.

"Tsk, how vulgar."

Yuan Xian hesitated for a moment, but finally accepted it.

She glanced quickly and discreetly at the packaging bag, then looked at Li Qi and Jing Xi with a slight smile on her face.

"Alright, since we all live on the same floor, just let me know if you need anything. I have a lot of connections."

"Okay, senior sister!"

""

Li Qi answered crisply.

She stood there, like a midnight orchid quietly blooming.

Upon seeing this scene, Yuan Xian couldn't help but narrow her eyes, and her smile suddenly became a little stiff.

Upon seeing this, Bai Lang quickly said goodbye to the senior sister, then went to greet the other rooms one by one before finally returning to dormitory 439 at the end of the corridor.

As soon as she closed the door, Li Qi sat on the bed: "The police are right, Yuan Xian has serious problems."

"She must be the mastermind behind Longyan Village, that actress," he said, clearly terrified. White Wolf also casually pulled the scroll he'd obtained the night before from the cloth bag at his back.

Regarding the missing persons case, the police have essentially identified Yuan Yin as the suspect.

What they didn't know was how a girl could make five grown men—one of whom was a man—disappear silently from the dormitory and the toilet.

There is no trace at all.

Even after the police carefully inspected all the sewers, they found no suspicious organizations.

Because it's purely speculation, without the slightest bit of evidence, the poor University City Police Department has been working overtime and applying for a long time.

Finally, the Monk Administration Bureau took over the case.

When it comes to investigating cases, monks are no match for police officers.

However, when it comes to cases involving supernatural beings, the greatest advantage of monks is their ability to use entrapment tactics.

They've managed to infiltrate the area, but the three haven't decided on the specifics yet.

Jingxi warned first: "Be careful. The ability to destroy such a large object as a human without making a sound is most likely a rule-based entity. Although spiritual power can suppress supernatural abilities, it's still a bit dangerous to face a rule-based entity."

The two nodded.

It's not that spiritual power is ineffective against rule-based systems.

The main reason is that rule-based superpowers are all concept gods.

Once activated, even if it can only exert a slight effect after being affected by spiritual power, it may still cause irreparable damage.

The group chatted for a while longer.

White Wolf glanced at the time on his phone and reminded him, "It's almost time to see the teacher."

77

So the three of them pretended to pick up a bag and headed out.

It was almost perfect.

As they passed by room 404, Yuan Xian also came out of her room.

"Hmm, what a coincidence?" Yuan Xian greeted her.

The white wolf's eyes smiled first, then his lips curled up a moment later: "That's right! We're going to visit our teacher. Who are you?"

"Same here, I also need to go to my advisor to discuss my thesis."

Whether it was a misperception or not, the three of them noticed that Yuan Xian's attitude had improved a lot.

Considering that this chance encounter was not planned, it's even possible to be certain that she was actively trying to get closer to him.

The four quickly walked to the main building and then parted ways.

The teacher the three were looking for was Chen Yao.

His office was in a rather secluded spot, to avoid Yuan Xian wondering why she had never seen this teacher before.

After Chen Yao closed the door, Bai Lang realized that Lu Bing and his three other friends had already arrived in the office.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Lu Bing clapped his hands.

Eight incantations flew out from his feet like spiders, climbed up the office wall, and finally converged above his head.

"Alright," Lu Bing said calmly, then sat down in his office chair.

Chen Yao explained, "This space has been sealed off. No one outside can see or hear us. Have you gotten involved with Yuan Xian?"

"The gifts have been delivered." After saying that, Bai Lang turned to Li Qi and Jing Xi: "I noticed that the bag Yuan Xian just picked up is not the one we gave her, and it looks quite expensive."

""

"Her source of funds is suspicious." Jingxi nodded. "The police mentioned that she had purchased a lot of luxury goods, and there were some records of her selling them before. Now, she's only taking in money and not giving it out. Moreover, she only spends cash, and we don't know where the money comes from."

"Could he be some kind of underground cultivator?" Ji Huaiguang interjected. "Due to resentment, he awakened some strange superpower, so he simply takes on murder jobs?"

Jingxi shook her head: "Her movements are normal. Unless her target happens to be these missing people, she simply won't have time to place orders."

"The police must have investigated the missing person's accounts. Since they found nothing, it means it wasn't a simple case of murder for money." White Wolf tapped his fingers incessantly on the back of his chair. "A friend disappeared, and they got the money?"

"What if we cut out the middleman and their profit margin?" he wondered, "and turned cold friends into warm money?"

'

"What the hell is this?" Lu Kui laughed as he listened from the side.

"Have you ever heard of turning stone into gold? Just tap it—" White Wolf picked up a tissue from the table, casually poked a hole in it, and "the thing will turn into gold."

"However, if I had this superpower, I would definitely target strangers in dark corners, not people around me."

"I guess this ability must have some special limitations, probably related to the items that can be targeted."

Jing Xi poured cold water on the idea: "If it's this kind of superpower, and there are already five of us, she definitely won't make a move anytime soon. If she doesn't make a move, according to human rights laws, we can't just kill people directly."

""

"That makes sense—no wonder she didn't go back to Longyan Village to harvest." White Wolf said thoughtfully.

"But then again, even with the limitations of superpowers, taking out five at once is still too much of a show, isn't it?"

"Either they are forced by their superpowers, or they are too impulsive and simply cannot control themselves."

He sighed, "It seems I'll have to be the one to dig the nest."
