After comforting her for a long time, Chen Huijie began to ask what had happened. Shi Huaiya said that she had carefully prepared a project for a long time, but ended up being trapped. Although she eventually pulled it off, Shi Huaiya didn't lose much, but being set up was still being set up. Her grandfather also scolded her for a long time, and coupled with the pressure during this period, Shi Huaiya couldn't stand it anymore, so she came to find him.

It seems that what Shi Huaiya dreamed about this time was what happened recently. It’s good. Although she is not alone anymore, it is better to have fewer uncomfortable things happen.

Thinking of this, Chen Huijie smiled and received the reward for canceling this trip:

【Tool: Understanding】

【Only by understanding the hidden meaning can one understand others and understand the applause! 】

Ok?

Chen Huijie took a look at the prop, which was the kind that could not be taken out. Seeing that the icon was a pattern of a glowing light bulb, Chen Huijie touched his chin thoughtfully, and then chose to use it.

Instantly, Chen Huijie felt as if the world he perceived had become clearer. He casually glanced around, then picked up the phone and dialed Wei Yanwu's number. After two rings, it was quickly picked up, and a familiar voice came from the other end:

"Xiao Jie, what's wrong?"

Governor Wei's voice sounded a little strange, as if he was in a state of entanglement, wanting to slack off but unable to do so.

When Chen Huijie heard this voice, this idea naturally came to his mind.

"Nothing, I just came to ask Governor Wei if there's anything you'd like to modify in the documents I'm handling. I can also adjust my action plan based on your changes."

Chen Huijie continued to ask, but Wei Yanwu's line seemed to freeze. After the sound of shuffling documents came from the other end of the line, a new response came:

"Ah... this is quite good. Although only a few minor details have been modified, they don't affect the overall situation. Xiaojie, just continue with your plan."

Governor Wei probably didn't find any problems, but felt that if he couldn't find even this little problem, it would seem like he was incompetent, so he said this.

"Okay, I understand. Governor Wei, you're busy. I'll hang up first."

After Chen Huijie ended the call, he opened the door of the secret room again, looked at the emperor outside, and asked softly:

"Mr. Great Emperor, do you think I should move the records out of the secret room first? I might make quite a noise, and if I accidentally damage something you love, I'd be deeply guilty."

"No, those records are worthless. Just take them as you please."

"Doesn't this guy really know that I recorded those records when I was bored?"

"This guy is quite thoughtful, but I don't like his tone."

"This guy is so slow. He's been in there for so long and hasn't even started yet."

"Ok."

Chen Huijie received the message that suddenly popped up in his mind, responded with a smile, then closed the door and tapped his chin with his mobile phone thoughtfully.

Is this a telepathic tool? No, it shouldn't be. This should be... it should be a kind of self-enhancement. Drawing on my own experience, wisdom, and reactions, combined with my understanding of the person being observed, I can then present auxiliary options in my mind for reference.

I know Governor Wei very well, so the reference information that comes to my mind is very clear. The emperor is a mysterious existence. Even though I have a good relationship with him in the previous world line, I have not been able to truly understand him completely, so there are a few more reference options in my mind.

Moreover, Chen Huijie felt that even if he was facing a stranger, the reference options provided by this auxiliary prompt would be very valuable.

Tsk, this prop is really useful for dealing with people. If given to Shi Huaiya, I think it will give her a considerable advantage at the negotiation table.

But if I use it on myself, it won’t be wasted.

Chen Huijie looked at the pair of lock and key wands. This prop seemed to have some connection with the sword-viewing method.

Although Chen Huijie now feels that his method of observing the sword has reached the master level, he has achieved the goal of observing the sword as observing the mind.

However, the various stages of the method of observing the sword are observing the sword as the sword, observing the sword as the person, observing the sword as myself, and observing the sword as the heart.

Now, Chen Huijie uses the method of [Observing Swords as People] to observe this pair of lock and key wands. With the help of this prop, can he achieve better results?

Moreover, part of the giant beast's consciousness already exists in these staffs, so it is not difficult to treat it as a human being.

Thinking of this, Chen Huijie couldn't wait to grasp the pair of magic wands. After all, he didn't know how long the effect of this prop would last.

However, when Chen Huijie activated the sword-viewing method, he clearly felt the resistance from the giant beast's consciousness.

"Ant, who do you think you are? How dare you dare to touch my power!"

As the prompt sound appeared, Chen Huijie also felt that a new feeling was emerging in his mind because of the method of observing the sword. Although Chen Huijie did not have time to distinguish what those feelings meant, it was undoubtedly a good sign.

"Ant, your death date... uh..."

The giant beast consciousness in the staff was still roaring, but soon it stopped. In the vision of this remnant soul, he saw a crystal clear sword suddenly emerge from Chen Huijie's head. Then, a golden shadow whose face could not be seen clearly but looked like Chen Huijie was printed from the same mold, grasped the sword.

At that moment, the remnant soul felt the approach of death, as if there was no need for the sword to chop it down. As long as the golden shadow pointed the tip of the sword at itself, it would be suppressed by the terrible force.

"Humph."

Chen Huijie snorted coldly. In the past, the evil demons could not damage his consciousness. Now, such a remnant soul wants to attack his spiritual altar. It is really courteous of life and death. Well, now it has been very obedient, so let me find out what your power is!

Just as Chen Huijie officially began his research on the staff, Sophia heard a knock on the door of her apartment. Curious, she went to open the door and saw an unexpected acquaintance...

~~~~~

Chapter 150 Rat King: Yuxia, what do you think of Xiao Chen?

Sofia felt unusually refreshed after getting up today. Although she had a dream all night last night, she seemed to have had a good sleep and felt that she had never slept so comfortably in her life.

but……

Sofia couldn't help but cover her burning face. What the hell was going on? What on earth was that strange dream all about? Although feeding and such was quite interesting, why was it herself and Chen Huijie in her own private courtyard...

Oh, really, I am so embarrassed. I was busy cooking during the day, so why was I still busy with this in my dream? It’s really embarrassing.

So, should I give it a try? To verify the results of my dream?

Sofia couldn't help but look towards the kitchen. In her dream, she finally realized that Chen Huijie's taste was bland and he couldn't handle spicy food very well, but he wasn't picky about food. No, that didn't seem quite right...

He was very picky about Victorian cuisine. If the color was slightly off, or the smell was a little strange, or the dish was a little scary, he would look at me with an expression that said, "Brother, I didn't provoke you, why are you doing this to me?"

Of course, Zofia also admitted that Victorian cuisine cannot be said to be unpalatable, but there are fewer edible dishes.

As Sofia thought about this, she slowly walked downstairs. She also heard breathing sounds coming from the sofa. She thought that Chen Huijie was still resting, so she deliberately lowered her footsteps, worried that she would wake him up. This guy is really busy. It's not easy...

Ok? !

Halfway through the walk, Sofia suddenly realized that something was wrong. She hurried over to take a look and saw that the person sleeping soundly on the sofa was her niece Margaret Linguang. Who else could it be?

No, why are you sleeping here? Where's Brother Chen? Didn't he come back last night?!

Sofia blinked a little dazedly, but in the end, she still didn't wake up Margaret and chose to go to the kitchen to prepare something to eat first. As for what to cook... it didn't matter, anyway, she would just eat it with Margaret.

Margaret soon woke up from the sound of Sofia's emotional manipulation of pots and pans. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and couldn't help stretching. Then she suddenly realized something, looked up, and saw Sofia coming out of the kitchen with the heated leftover food from last night.

Sophia put the dishes on the table, looked at Margaret and said:

"It's time to eat, hurry up."

"Okay, Auntie..."

Margaret noticed Sophia's displeasure and sat down at the table. Then... As expected, Sophia couldn't help herself and said to Margaret:

"Why are you sleeping in this place? Where's Brother Chen?"

"I don't know about that. When I got up, I didn't see my benefactor. He must have gone out for something."

Speaking of this, Margaret couldn't help but recall the scene in her dream last night. In the dream, she was so... so unchivalrous that she actually took advantage of her sister and aunt's discussion to sneak out with someone in such an unscrupulous way. However, this strange dream also reminded Margaret of one thing. Some things really need to be figured out first!

Then, Margaret raised her head, looked directly at Sophia and said:

"Aunt, I have a question for you."

"what is the problem?"

"What is your relationship with your benefactor?"

"what?"

Sofia was obviously troubled by Margaret's words. She was slightly stunned. To be honest, she had not really thought about this issue carefully.

Margaret continued to ask:

"Are they just ordinary friends, lovers, or... are you raising them outside..."

"What kind of books do you usually read?"

Margaret's words made Zofia interrupt the topic quickly, and then said with a red face:

"Why are you asking so many questions at such a young age? Okay, let's eat!"

"But……"

"Margaret's here! Eat!"

Facts have proved that even a champion would instinctively obey when faced with an angry elder calling out his full name, not to mention that Margaret was not very old, even younger than Chen Huijie at this time. Therefore, Margaret obediently began to concentrate on eating, planning in her heart to ask her aunt when the time was right.

On the other side, Zofia couldn't help but feel confused. After hearing what Margaret said, she was really confused about her emotions. She had spent the first half of her life as a competitive knight, and all her thoughts were on how to become the champion without relying on the help of outsiders.

After the failure, Zofia tried her best to maintain the glory of the Linguang family, even though she was just a branch and could not even use the name "Linguang".

Therefore, Sofia, who had a blank history in love, was really a little flustered. Before this, she always thought that things like love and romance were just like that. Even if she had never been in a relationship, had she not eaten animal meat, had she seen an animal run?

Before this, Sophia felt that her relationship with Chen Huijie was nothing special. It was just a relationship between friends. But... now that Margaret asked this, it meant that her relationship with Chen Huijie had made her feel confused. Was her behavior towards Chen Huijie a little too much, or was Margaret, a simple woman, a little too sensitive? Was she also...

Especially after thinking about last night's dream, Sofia felt that her state of mind was challenged unprecedentedly. At this moment, the door of the apartment was knocked. Sofia subconsciously thought that Shi Huaiya had come. After all, the window was still open. Chen Huijie usually went through the window, but then she thought, Shi Huaiya had a key. Even if it was polite, the young lady should have opened the door after knocking.

So, who is coming?

Zofia opened the door curiously and saw a familiar figure. The person was wearing Casimir's action cloak, and her long silver hair was draped softly on her shoulders. Her name was Bai Jin, and she was an assassin from Casimir's Helmless Alliance.

The reason why she is said to be an acquaintance is also because of her identity.

At the beginning, Margaret Linguang participated in the knight competition as an independent knight, and was awarded the title in his first competition. He entered the main competition and even won the championship in one fell swoop, becoming the only young knight in the history of knight competition who had no sponsorship, no group, and won the championship as soon as he debuted.

At the same time, Margaret Lin Guang also broke the unspoken rule in the knight competition dominated by the Casimir Chamber of Commerce, endangering the interests of the Chamber of Commerce. Therefore, the Chamber of Commerce included Lin Guang on the assassination list of the No Helmet Alliance.

Although Bai Jin did not participate in the actual assassination, she also served as a messenger of the Wu Zhou League, constantly delivering various "news" of the Wu Zhou League to the Lin Guang family. Therefore, Zofia remembered this little white horse.

What was she doing here? According to the original agreement, the No-Head Alliance's assassinations should have stopped once Margaret left Casimir, so why was she still following him here?!

Sofia's mind immediately became serious. Although considering Platinum's strength, it would not be difficult for her and Margaret to take down this guy, but those shady guys in the No Hero Alliance... could use any sinister means.

"Finally found you."

At this moment, Bai Jin suddenly spoke, which made Zofia's vigilance reach the limit, and then...

"Come on, sign for me quickly, or I'll lose my bonus and performance."

"what!?"

Just as many questions popped up in Sophia's head, over on Lin Gerui's side, the Rat King looked at his daughter's stubborn look and said with a headache:

"Yuxia, you're so unreasonable. You suddenly want me to fake my death and hold a funeral. Isn't this a bit..."

"Father, I know this may be difficult for you to accept for a while, but it's not a bad thing."

Lin Yuxia was whispering to Lin Gerui quite seriously. In this room where only the father and daughter were, the little mouse said in a serious tone:

"Father, your presence has suppressed too many ambitions. The peace in the slums is just an illusion. I know this, and you know it too. But when you disappear, we have no idea what kind of turmoil will erupt beneath this illusion. Our current efforts may return to nothingness in the blink of an eye, so I think we should give it a try."

Lin Yuxia's words revealed a rare solemnity, and her tone made people feel the heaviness and uneasiness. Just the night before, she had experienced an extremely terrifying dream.

In the dream, Lin Gerui unfortunately passed away and lay quietly in a cold coffin. Faced with such a sudden blow, Lin Yuxia should have been immersed in grief, but she had no time to care about it - because a group of uninvited guests suddenly broke in, they were holding deadly weapons and intended to besiege her.

To make matters worse, Lin Yuxia discovered she was poisoned. Although the poison wasn't particularly potent, every time she activated her Originium skills during battle, it would rapidly erode her body. This situation undoubtedly intensified her sense of crisis, as if time were relentlessly counting down.

Those assassins were obviously carefully selected, and each of them was very skilled. Even if Lin Yuxia had considerable strength, it would be difficult for her to subdue them in a short time.

As the situation progressed, the Lin family's guards were eliminated, and the pressure on her increased dramatically. In this situation, it was almost impossible to remain unscathed, and even surviving became uncertain.

Fortunately, although Lin Yuxia suffered a lot of injuries, the pain caused by those injuries and toxins was not truly reflected. Lin Yuxia was only aware that she was injured, how serious the injury was, and to what extent the toxins had spread, just like the debuff box of a game character.

Just as Lin Yuxia was thinking this, the scene in front of her suddenly changed and turned back to the scene before the battle began. There was no doubt that although she didn't understand what was going on, since it had started again, she had to work harder to get out of that predicament.

Then, Lin Yuxia restarted the dream for the whole night until she was woken up by the alarm clock, but she still stopped at the second round of attack. Lin Yuxia realized that this dream was like a game, with a "pass point", but with her current strength, she really couldn't reach there.

Moreover, the background of this dream was so terrible that Lin Yuxia felt a little confused when she woke up and sat on the edge of the bed. Although she was ready to take over the burden from her father, she had never thought about how to deal with those changes. This made Lin Yuxia feel uneasy and frightened for a while.

Finally, in panic, Lin Yuxia thought of this solution and hurried to discuss it with her father. After all, since she couldn't handle this matter properly at the moment, she had to ask her father for advice.

"Yuxia, don't worry."

Lin Gerui was a shrewd man. He naturally saw the restlessness in his daughter's heart. He gently rubbed Lin Yuxia's head and said softly:
