I traveled through time and space as a villain and became her heart-stealer.

As she spoke, little Lina couldn't help but shrink her neck, fearing that she would be lifted up by Catalina's hand again, and then she spoke.

"Of course I came here to ask about your recent situation, but I not only want to know about you, but also want to know about Hohenheim's condition."

At this point, Xiao Lina's eyes gradually became gloomy, and her expression became serious, and then she continued:

"Has he made any new moves recently? You've been monitoring him here for a week, so you should know more about him than I do."

Katerina blinked, then couldn't help but smile.

It turns out this guy can still think about serious matters.

"Well, this guy has been very honest in the past week and has not blatantly violated the rules and gone out."

After a pause, Catalina added:

"Of course, this is just on the surface."

"Oh?"

Lina's eyes lit up and she became interested.

"In other words, he is still doing something behind my back?"

The tone of her words clearly carried a hint of excitement in watching the fun.

As a member of the Pure Love Kingdom's inspection team, Lina is known for her bad temper.

He likes to bully the weak, and when he is sure to win, he always likes to play with his opponent in the palm of his hand.

Watching the other person's heart gradually collapse, little Lina would feel a strong pleasure from the bottom of her heart.

Make her want to stop.

Simply the worst character.

But precisely because of this, the Inspectorate Brigade made an exception and accepted her as deputy captain.

Sometimes, this kind of character is needed when interrogating prisoners.

"Well, although he himself has never left the house, Miss Lianna has been in and out quite frequently."

Lina blinked, looking confused.

"Didn't she say she was going out to buy food? Isn't it normal for her to go out so frequently?"

Catalina had a serious expression, and as she looked at Lina's innocent look, a complex look flashed in her eyes.

Of course not.

Catalina said secretly in her heart.

In the past week, Miss Lianna has been going out more and more frequently, and in the later stage, she has to go out for three meals a day.

Not only that, the amount of food Miss Lianna buys every time she goes out is also astonishing.

The whole bamboo basket was filled to the brim, and two people couldn't finish it.

This is one of them.

Second, every time Miss Lianna brought back vegetables, only a few were dishes that Catalina could recognize.

More than 90% of the plants are more like some kind of herbs than vegetables with strange shapes.

Thirdly, a few days ago, Miss Lianna brought back something even more bizarre.

Two hearts.

Thinking of this, Catalina's face turned pale.

Although Lianna said that she wanted to buy some animal organs to make soup to supplement Mr. Hohenheim's nutrition.

But she could vaguely tell that it didn't look like the heart of any animal.

The shape is strange, yet familiar.

"Miss Catalina?"

At this moment, Lina's soft exclamation came from the side, interrupting Katarina's solitary thinking.

Catalina then showed a slightly flustered expression.

"What's the matter, Miss Katharina?" Little Lina asked in confusion, "You don't look well."

"No, it's nothing."

Catalina quickly shook her head, then looked away and said:

"In short, you have to be careful of Hohenheim's tricks. Although he is not very strong, his ability to refine medicine is real."

"If you have a routine checkup tomorrow, don't be too careless, especially don't eat anything casually, be careful that he might drug you."

Lina blinked and looked at Katarina with a hint of surprise.

It's rare that the "Knight Princess" would speak so highly of a stranger.

"Don't worry, I won't be like Miss Catalina, eating and drinking at his house and end up being drugged and passed out~"

Little Lina covered her mouth and giggled, and when she thought of what happened not long ago, a hint of mockery appeared on her face.

Catalina's face turned red and she clenched her fists secretly.

She had clearly warned Hohenheim not to tell anyone about such things, but she didn't expect that the news would gradually spread.

Eventually, the news spread.

"I told you, I was just drunk!" Catalina bit her lips lightly, and her delicate white neck turned red.

"Yes yes yes~"

Little Lina raised the corners of her lips slightly, revealing a sly smile that said, "I understand you," and continued:

"But then to me, Mr. Hohenheim's potion is nothing to be afraid of, is it?"

Having said this, little Lina suddenly stopped where she was and smiled meaningfully.

"With my scar magic, his potion won't have any effect on me. On the contrary, I would be troubled if he didn't drug me~"

After leaving behind an incomprehensible remark, little Lina waved her hand gently, turned around and walked away along the street.

Catalina narrowed her eyes as she watched her receding figure.

Lina was right.

Her scar magic is so powerful that it can even be said to be a perfect counter to Mr. Hohenheim.

She just didn't know why, but she always felt vaguely uneasy.

……

Night gradually fell.

In a room at Building 38, Dite Street.

Gu Qinghan stood in the kitchen, squinting his eyes as he looked at the pots and pans that had been arranged, as well as the oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea that had been temporarily placed on the windowsill.

In this way, all the traps have been laid out.

All that's left now is for the key characters to appear.

Next to her, Lianna looked at the "brand new" kitchen and was secretly shocked.

It's like a dragnet.

In the vegetable sink, the wooden basin is filled with freshly washed vegetables, with "dew" on the surface.

Next to the kitchen stove, there was a small box of table salt that seemed to be damp, with the inside wet, as if some liquid had been dropped into it.

Soy sauce and cooking oil are placed in prominent positions.

Even the bowls, chopsticks, knives and forks for tomorrow morning’s meal were all “washed” and prepared in advance.

Lianna glanced at everything in the kitchen and was secretly horrified.

On the surface, everything seems normal.

However, Lianna observed from the side from beginning to end and clearly saw how Gu Qinghan administered the drugs.

This seemingly ordinary kitchen has actually turned into a veritable purgatory.

Tomorrow morning, if Miss Lina makes a wrong move, she will undoubtedly fall into the trap set by Gu Qinghan in advance.

"Master, you have no intention of letting her go back." Lianna smiled slightly and looked at Gu Qinghan with a hint of admiration in her eyes.

Being able to do this, even if Lina was prepared in advance, she would be knocked down without noticing.

However, there was only one thing that concerned her.

Lianna frowned slightly, not knowing whether she should speak up to remind Gu Qinghan.

Isn't this method of drugging a little too obvious?

She opened her mouth, but in the end she didn't say anything.

Mr. Hohenheim probably has his own ideas.

Chapter 18 Second Routine Inspection

The night passed.

Today the sky is overcast with thunder and lightning.

It had been sunny for the past few days, but today, the streets were covered with dark clouds and a drizzle began to fall.

Gu Qinghan sat up tiredly, rubbed his temple and felt a sharp pain, and his right eyelid twitched wildly.

Had a bad sleep last night.

Especially after two days of staying up late, last night's poor rest would completely disrupt his biological clock.

But now he could no longer sleep.

At this time, Lianna came to Gu Qinghan's house early and hurriedly prepared breakfast according to the plan.

There were some water stains on the wooden floor in the house.

But in fact, this was intentional on Lianna's part.

Especially on rainy days, these look very inconspicuous and can easily be mistaken for leaking eaves.

According to the plan, today is a rare Chinese breakfast.

Millet porridge, fried dough sticks, pancakes, tofu buns, shrimp steamed dumplings, a few sweet pastries, and a bowl of soy milk.

Chinese food is a style of food that has never existed in this world. For someone like Lina, she would definitely want to try it.

This is exactly the effect Gu Qinghan wanted.

To advance a plan, one often has to take risks.

The more you understand your opponent, the more likely you are to seize the initiative and secure victory.

A flash of lightning struck, illuminating Gu Qinghan's profile. With a serious look in his eyes, he looked up and glanced at the clock on the wall. It was already 7:50 in the morning.

Ten minutes to go.

The stage is set.

As long as the key characters appear on the stage, the prologue can begin at any time.

The clock hanging on the wall is ticking away every second. The extremely depressing and silent room makes one feel suffocated.

Gu Qinghan stared at the wooden door, quietly waiting for the final countdown.

Finally, after a long wait, a familiar voice was heard outside the wooden door!

——Dong dong dong!

The heavy and rhythmic knocks on the door made the air in the room stagnate.

"Hello, Mr. Hohenheim. I am the inspector of the Pure Love Kingdom. Please open the door and cooperate with me in my routine inspection!"

The calm voice, without any emotional fluctuations, made the atmosphere even more tense.

Gu Qinghan took a deep breath, got up and walked towards the wooden door.

The next few dozen minutes will determine his future fate.
