I set you up on a blind date, and you've managed to overcome all the weirdness?

Chapter 161 Jiangcheng Third Heavy Machinery Plant

After the loud bang.

The three men in Zhongshan suits stopped in their tracks and all turned to look at the other side of the corridor.

They raised their iron rulers and rushed towards the stairwell.

"Walk!"

Lin Yan acted decisively, taking advantage of the opening, and pulled Ajiu out of the office through the back window.

They slid down the drainpipe on the outer wall to the first floor of the factory and took cover behind a pillar.

This is a perfect blind spot, blocking the view from the second floor and preventing the judge's phantom from seeing it.

In theory, they are safe as long as they don't make a sound.

With a "crack," Lin Yan landed on his toes, and before he could even catch his breath, he suddenly felt a crisp sensation under his feet.

He looked down and muttered "Damn it!"

A piece of broken glass, from who-knows-where, landed right on the sole of his shoe.

Lin Yan pulled A Jiu's hand in, which definitely triggered the rules, so they prepared for battle.

really.

The trio, who had been wandering aimlessly on the second floor, suddenly had a target.

One by one they leaped over the railing and landed straight on the ground, rushing towards Lin Yan without even catching their breath.

Before Lin Yan could even draw his sword...

The judge's illusory figure, which had been hanging in mid-air with its eyes closed, suddenly opened its left eye.

It has no pupils and its eyeballs are grayish-white.

That eye locked onto Lin Yan.

"Whoosh!"

A seal shot out from the bottom of the judge's robe.

This isn't like those slow-moving spider webs at the second-floor entrance.

The seal was taut and straight, like a sharp spear, tearing through the air and heading straight for Lin Yan's throat.

It's too fast, there's no way to dodge it.

Lin Yan stood still and pulled back Ajiu, who was trying to block his way.

He originally wanted to hold back some cards and stay in this place a little longer, slowly gathering clues while he was out there.

But since this guy insists on forcing him to flip the table, then he can't blame him for being impolite.

"Does he really think I'm an easy target?"

Lin Yan sneered and flipped his left hand.

A few specks of dark blue light shone on his chest.

Even in long-abandoned factory buildings, the air still retains a trace of moisture.

At this moment, Lin Yan instantly drew it away and condensed it.

A chilling ice shield materialized in front of Lin Yan.

With a "bang," the powerful seal slammed into the ice shield, striking like metal against stone.

Lin Yan's eyes narrowed; this thing was surprisingly strong.

The scriptures on the seal flickered, attempting to dismantle the ice shield, but the deep-sea authority that the mermaid had half-stepped up to could not be easily erased.

The ice shield only developed a tiny crack before firmly blocking the fatal blow.

Taking advantage of the judge's phantom attack being blocked, Lin Yan's left and right hands flew simultaneously, instantly condensing several ice spears.

The ice spear shot out, and the judge's phantom was not to be outdone, sending out several seals that blocked most of them in mid-air.

Lin Yan snorted coldly, a smirk playing on his lips.

What happened before was just a smokescreen; the real show is yet to come!

He brought his right index and middle fingers together to form a knife shape, and his eyes were simultaneously filled with pure black.

[Separation] Power quietly gathered at his fingertips.

"Cut it off right now!"

Lin Yan measured the angle, aligning the judge and his three henchmen in Zhongshan suits in a straight line, and then closed the scissors.

The crisp sound of tearing arrived as expected.

The three figures were smoothly cut off at the waist, before they could even react to what had happened.

Three bodies, broken in two, fell to the ground and quickly turned into a pile of grayish-white ashes, dissipating into the air.

"roar!"

The judge's phantom in mid-air simultaneously let out a mournful cry.

It withstood the separation authority and was not torn apart.

However, its massive body began to fluctuate, indicating that the combined power of the two authorities had exceeded the limits that this domain could withstand.

The seals binding the nun began to loosen, and some showed signs of breaking.

"All done, time to wrap up."

Lin Yan clapped his hands, pondering how to squeeze more money out of the nun later.

However----

Just a second before the judge's phantom image was about to completely disappear.

Its right eye suddenly opened and looked at Lin Yan.

The phantom raised the gavel high in its hand. It had never used it before, but now, as it was about to die, it struck Lin Yan with it!

No sound.

But Lin Yan felt as if something had entered his brain.

He vaguely sensed something; something bypassed the ice shield in front of him and pierced directly into his brow!

Holy crap!

Lin Yan only had time to utter half a curse in his mind before he instantly lost the ability to think.

The factory building before them, the nun struggling to break free of the seals, and Ah Jiu standing behind them—

He seemed to have gained an omniscient perspective in that instant, but everything was distorted, shattered, and finally turned into darkness.

Then everything spun around me, as if I had been stuffed into a washing machine.

Lin Yan didn't know how much time had passed when he felt himself being smashed into a pile of somewhat bouncy things.

Finally, a breath of air entered my mouth.

As he continued to breathe, the feeling of suffocation slowly subsided.

The smell of engine oil and tobacco woke him up.

A slightly off-key strumming sound came from nearby, seemingly mixed with the roar of an engine.

Lin Yan opened his eyes with difficulty, and the world gradually became clear in his eyes.

Beneath him was a pile of old, discarded truck tires, and above him was a sheet of corrugated iron roof.

He rubbed his throbbing temples and tried to sit up, only to find that his clothes had changed.

The combat uniforms in the bureau were changed into a set of blue cloth work clothes.

The breast pocket has several large characters embroidered in red silk thread, giving it a vintage feel at first glance.

Jiangcheng Third Heavy Machinery Plant.

"Where the hell is this?"

Lin Yan was stunned.

He looked around, momentarily confused.

The ground was littered with cigarette butts and empty beer bottles. This must be a workshop?

But with several broken speakers placed nearby, it didn't quite look like a workshop.

Before he could even figure things out, an aluminum lunchbox crashed down at his feet.

"Feed".

A woman's voice came from not far away, sounding quite impatient.

Lin Yan raised her head.

is her?

With a flamboyant wolf-tail short haircut and smoky makeup around his eyes, it wasn't body painting?

She was wearing a leather jacket covered in studs, and had an unlit cigarette dangling from her mouth, looking every bit the rebellious young woman.

She walked over and kicked the tire that Lin Yan was leaning against.

"A new stagehand, right?"

The delinquent-style nun had a menacing look in her eyes. She sized Lin Yan up and down, then gave a disdainful, crooked smile: "Stop playing dead and get up now. Move those two broken speakers to the platform!"

"If you miss tonight's rehearsal, I'll make sure you can't stay in this factory anymore!"

Lin Yan stared blankly at the delinquent nun; perhaps she had just woken up and her mind was a little slow.

"What are you staring at?! Are you mute?"

Seeing Lin Yan's horrified expression, the nun kicked the aluminum lunchbox on the ground with her toe, signaling him to get up quickly.

Lin Yan stood up, picked up the lunchbox from the ground, and gave a simple, honest smile.

"Sorry, I didn't sleep well last night, I was a little groggy just now."

"Well, I just arrived and my head is still a bit fuzzy. What's the date today?"
