"A full set of eighteen moves."

"Full set of eighteen moves?"

Clorinde had never heard of this name, but judging from the literal meaning, it seemed to be some kind of sword move.

"As the name suggests, the full set of 18 moves is 18 different moves, from thrifty to extravagant, each one is stronger than the last! The name of this first move is - Old Man Pushing a Cart!"

Fontaine: Chapter 147: The Great Detective Funina

"Hmm...Hmm...Um..."

Clorinde was sweating, her face flushed, and her upper body rose and fell rhythmically.

"I...I...can't do it anymore..."

She looked at the teacher begging for mercy.

"Don't stop yet, go faster! Faster! This is the last set!"

Lu Sheng urged, pressing Clorinde's leg.

Clorinde gritted her teeth and finished the last twenty sit-ups. Then she collapsed to the ground, her eyes unfocused and hot air coming out of her mouth.

"You can't hold on after only a thousand sit-ups? The old man pushing the cart requires the most waist strength. Only when the waist is well trained can you exert force more quickly and violently! Retract and release freely! When you practice to the extreme, it is the so-called five shallow and one deep!"

The force starts from the ground, and the center point of conversion into upper limb strength lies in the waist. A good waist can transfer the force completely to the upper body.

This is the truth that Clorinde understood when she was young and learned martial arts.

But doing a thousand sit-ups at one time is too difficult. This is not how you train. If an ordinary person did this, their waist would be broken.

"Five shallow and one deep? What does that mean? A way of exerting force?" She took out a cloth and wiped the sweat from her face and neck.

"Wrong. The five and one here are imaginary numbers. The so-called five shallow and one deep, the real meaning is to feint, to deceive, to use gentle, slow attacks to make the opponent lose his guard, and suddenly! Give the opponent a fatal blow, which will definitely make the opponent feel great."

Clorinde suddenly realized.

It turns out that this is the reason why the teacher asked me to exercise my waist. If I want to achieve the optimal state of five shallow and one deep, waist strength is indispensable, because the basis of power lies in the unity of waist and horse.

Only with a good waist and a good core can you control and release the strength freely and reach the state of five shallow and one deep.

I understand!

Clorinde's fatigue was swept away. She didn't expect that she actually learned something from Sherlock!

"Okay, let's stop here for today's training. Come back tomorrow. Remember to dress casually and don't wear too many restrictive things. It's best to show your body in its most original state so that the training effect can be achieved."

Human words: vacuum.

I don’t know if Clorinde understood or not, but she just nodded and got up and left.

It was already night. Lu Sheng turned on the light, dug some mud from the back garden, and used the golden creation technique to mold a mini Lisa. He then gave the letter he had just written to mini Lisa and asked it to take it back to Xumi.

To be on the safe side, he also added a self-destruct device to the elf. If it encountered an attack on the way, it would explode and destroy the letter.

He opened the window and started the Mini Lisa. A pair of wings spread out from behind the Mini Lisa, and it flew into the sky and disappeared into the night.

"That should be fine."

After finishing the important things, he went back to the backyard to clean up the mess and then planted sunflowers in the field.

Fontaine's sunflowers produce water elements, which can be used to restore strength.

After doing all this, I can finally go to bed.

Lu Sheng returned to the room, lifted the bed board, lay down under the bed, and then summoned his clone to sleep on the bed.

Now he was alone again, and he had to take the necessary precautions.

It's better to be safe than sorry. People are always most vulnerable when they are resting.

The next morning, there was another knock on the door.

Lu Sheng opened the door and saw a strange man wearing a tall hat, a monocle in his eye sockets and a mustache standing outside.

After taking a closer look, he realized it was Funina.

"What are you up to?"

“Clang clang! The great detective Benfuninna makes his grand debut! Rejoice! Those who have been wronged; fear! The evil forces of Fontaine! This detective will be the last ray of light that illuminates the dark world!”

"Won't you laugh when you say something like that?"

"Hey! What are you doing?!"

Furninna got nervous and her monocle fell off and shattered into pieces on the ground. She bent down to pick it up and ended up losing her tall hat as well.

She raised her funny face with only a moustache.

"It's all your fault! My carefully prepared outfit is ruined!"

Lu Sheng helped her pick up the hat and put it back on her head. "Your outfit won't really turn you into a detective in the book. In the end, you still have to rely on yourself."

"Let's talk first."

Furninna walked into the house and muttered, "You don't understand. The right outfit can make me feel more involved and help me adapt to the role of a detective more quickly."

She sat down and asked, "There's a sign on your door saying Black Cat Detective Agency. Could it be that the inspiration for the name came from the Black Cat Phantom Thief that I play?"

Lu Sheng laughed, "Black Cat saw it, but Kaito didn't. Without me, you would have turned into a Hakimi long ago."

"What is Hakimi?"

"It means cute."

Funina looked very proud, "Of course! I am the cutest!"

When it comes to amusing fools, Lu Sheng is first-rate.

"By the way, you want me to reopen the case of Carres. Where should I start? If I suddenly reopen it for no apparent reason, people will definitely question me."

Lu Sheng leaned against the table, poured himself a cup of coffee, took a sip and said, "It's great that you thought of this. It's true that you can't initiate a retrial of this case. You just need to be responsible for solving the case. Someone else initiated the retrial."

"I know! It must be Navia!"

Funina couldn't wait to say the name of the person she was thinking of. She had already immersed herself in the detective's mindset and gradually fell in love with the feeling of using her brain.

Cares was the previous president of the Thorn Rose Society. After his death, his daughter Navia inherited the position of president. Over the years, she has been investigating the truth of the death and has never given up.

Through her, it would be easy to apply for a reinvestigation of the case.

"It is indeed Navia. You are quite smart when you are smart, but you can't take the initiative to find her."

"Ah? Why?"

Lu Sheng explained: "You solved the case in order to re-establish your authority. You did everything behind the scenes. How could the people of Fontaine see what their water god did?"

"No matter how many good things you do, if they are not seen, they do not count. Only what is seen by others counts. You must remember this principle deeply. If you do bad things, even if it is just spitting on the ground, you must not let others see it. If you do good things, even if it is just helping an old lady cross the road, it is best to let everyone see it."

"I will help you find Navia. She will then go to Navillatte to apply for a retrial of the case, but Navillatte will definitely not agree. At that time, you will need to come forward to refute Navillatte and take the initiative to take on the responsibility of retrial."

Furninna looked hesitant. "You want me to refute Villette in public? Really?"

"Can't you do it?"

"Who can't do it? I am the God of Water! I want to retry the case, so how can a judge like him have the right to speak? Retrial! Must be retried!"

Funina slammed the table and spoke loudly with confidence.

Fontaine: Chapter 148: Clorinde's Mature Feeling

"Go back and wait until Navia makes a big fuss before you show up. Also, the key to Carles' case is the original fetal sea water. You should know what that is. Go back and think carefully about the suspicious points of the case and be fully prepared."

Lu Sheng then added: "If you can solve the case, I will give you a gift."

"Gift?" Furniture asked curiously, "What gift?"

"Aren't you very curious about my origins? If you can solve the case, I can tell you my true identity."

"Really?! We have a deal! You are not allowed to go back on your word! I will find out the truth even if all my brain cells die!"

After a while, Funina left the detective agency humming a cheerful tune.

Clorinde followed.

"That person just now...was that Lady Funina? Am I seeing things right?"

Clorinde muttered to herself as she watched the figure disappear around the corner.

She wore a loose sportswear today, just as Teacher Sherlock said, to relax her body as much as possible and not let her muscles be restrained by tight clothes.

This was the first time Clorinde had worn this outside of her home, and she had to admit that it was much more comfortable than a corset.

Fontaine pays great attention to etiquette. When every lady reaches the age of twelve, her parents will require her to wear a suffocating corset to make her waist look slim and straight.

It looks good, but the torture is also quite painful.

If you want to have a strong waist and become stronger, you must get rid of the bad habit of corseting your waist.

Clorinde knocked on the door and a voice came from inside.

"The door is unlocked, come in."

Lu Sheng looked up and saw Clorinde pushing the door open. After changing her clothes, she looked much less aggressive, more mature and gentle. Even the loose clothes could not hide her perfect curves made up of powerful figures. She had an inexplicable sense of a married woman.

"Good morning, Master."

"Good morning, Padawan."

Clorinde found that her master Sherlock had changed into formal clothes and put on a coat, and seemed to be getting ready to go out.

"Want to go out?"

"Yes, but don't worry, let's finish today's training first."

"it is good."

Clorinde lay flat on the carpet, asked the master to help hold her legs, and started today's thousand sit-ups.

Lu Sheng was immediately delighted by the sight.

The apartment type, fullness, elasticity and so on are all clearly visible.

Only a god can resist this.

But don’t rush. Just like buying a new car, you need to tune it up first. The more lubricated it is, the more enjoyable it will be to drive in the future.

After learning the full set of Eighteen Moves, Clorinde will definitely be a hundred times stronger than she is now!

After the training, Clorinde's whole body was soaked with sweat, and her clothes were tightly attached to her skin, showing her body contours perfectly.

Oh, there are little details too.

Lu Sheng glanced at it, stood up, took a clean towel and threw it to Clorinde.

"Wipe it off, we have work to do."

Clorinde wiped the sweat off her face and asked, "Have you received any new commissions?"

Lu Sheng shook his head. "Where can I get business for my newly opened detective agency? I built my reputation on my own, so I decided to take the initiative and solve the unsolved case left by Fontaine."

"I did some research and found an old case. If we can solve it, our detective agency will become famous!"

Clorinde's curiosity was also aroused. As a shadow hunter, solving cases is one of her jobs, and she was also very interested in the unsolved case of Fontaine.

"What case? If necessary, I can help provide the case files from that year."

Of course, Clorinde did not forget the main mission, and getting closer to Sherlock was also an essential part of the mission.

"The Case of the Murder of a Friend by Carreth."

As soon as these words came out, the towel in Clorinde's hand fell quietly to the ground. She looked at Sherlock in extreme shock, "Why is it this case! Can't we change it?"

Her reaction was within Lu Sheng's expectations.

After all, the person involved died at the hands of Clorinde.

"Why change? A difficult case can show the strength of this detective. As far as I know, this case caused quite a stir back then, and... you were also involved in it."

"There are too many suspicious points here. I'm sure you've been worried about it, right? So, don't you want to know the truth behind it? According to my inference, there is a high possibility that Carres is innocent."

"What? You think so too?" Clorinde stood up quickly. "But that case happened a long time ago, and the person involved died in the duel. It is almost impossible to find out the truth..."

Lu Sheng reprimanded his apprentice unhappily: "This is impossible, that is impossible, what else in the world can be done? As my apprentice, you are not allowed to say the word impossible!"
