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

The little devil thought he had a sure win, so he could play with his mood at will.

But what about the facts?

"Hypnotic Depth Perception."

Gu Qinghan silently recited a sentence in his heart, and felt the magic power surge in his body. Then a lot of text appeared in his mind -

[Name]: Lina

Hypnotic Depth (Loyalty): 38

[Her body is absolutely obedient to you, and her heart wants you to be absolutely obedient. ]

[Warning]: The target is quite hostile to you, please proceed with caution.

After reading the key information, Gu Qinghan smiled calmly and reached out to close the door.

Man is born free, and yet he is everywhere in chains.

Some people think they are in control of everything, but they unknowingly become playthings of others.

Over the next few days, Lina's behavior was exactly the same as it was today, like rewinding a burned CD.

Early in the morning, she came to Hohenheim's house and took Hohenheim out of the room.

Under the guise of an investigation, Lina and Mr. Hohenheim team up to advance the case together.

But in fact, Lina used all means to "insult" Hohenheim in front of the red-name suspect.

Or hold his hand and act shy in front of others.

Or they drink from the same straw, gaze at each other lovingly, and let the citizens guess whether Lina is in love.

Regardless, one thing is certain.

In the eyes of these citizens, the little devil Lina has ulterior motives and is simply showing off her love.

But from Lina's perspective, it was a completely different picture.

She toyed with Mr. Hohenheim wantonly, destroying him physically and mentally in all aspects, and used this to satisfy her own evil taste.

This undoubtedly greatly satisfied her hobby.

"Mr. Zayu, I never get tired of looking at you." She thought to herself.

Every night, as Lina tossed and turned in her bed alone, she could feel waves of tingling pleasure throughout her body.

But what is the reality?

When the day's fatigue passed and the sun set, little Lina unknowingly returned to Hohenheim's home and drank a glass of sweet and delicious lemon juice.

Afterwards, he fell deeper and deeper into the whirlpool of desire.

Hypnosis Depth: 44

Hypnosis Depth: 47

Hypnosis Depth: 48

……

As the days passed, the number of red-listed suspects in the City of Love decreased by one, and the case review was moved one step closer.

Likewise, Lina became more and more addicted to Gu Qinghan's malicious manipulation.

Later on, it seemed to have become a habit for the two of them to travel together every day.

Even if either one is missing, the investigation team will become incomplete.

During the day, Gu Qinghan cooperated with her in performing humiliating scenes.

Late at night, he secretly continued to refine new soul hypnosis potion, while secretly recording little Lina's hypnosis progress.

If things continue at this pace, within a few days, Lina's hypnosis depth will exceed the threshold.

She will become completely dependent on Gu Qinghan.

However, the progress of the matter encountered unexpected difficulties.

The review is entering its third week.

Thursday.

That night, when Gu Qinghan was recording data alone, he vaguely discovered a problem.

Hypnosis Depth: 49

Gu Qinghan frowned, looked at the numbers in the diary, and fell into deep thought.

In recent days, the speed at which Lina's hypnosis depth increased seemed to have slowed down.

After reaching 49 points, it did not rise again.

This is strange.

In order to prove his guess, today he deliberately controlled Lina's body and drank a double dose of soul hypnosis potion.

However, this still did not change the facts.

When the hypnosis depth reaches 49 points, it seems to encounter an invisible barrier and it is difficult to rise any further.

Gu Qinghan sat alone in a chair, lost in thought.

When this happens, there are usually only two possibilities.

First, little Lina found a way to suppress the depth of hypnosis.

But from Gu Qinghan's perspective, this is impossible.

the reason is simple.

If the other party really realizes this, he will not take the risk of continuing to drink lemon tea.

Especially with Lina's personality, she would never do such a dangerous thing.

Therefore this is impossible.

The second possibility is that there is something wrong with the soul hypnosis potion itself.

But that's also unlikely.

[The Great Hypnotist] Hohenheim, although this guy brought countless troubles to Gu Qinghan, he is quite reliable when it comes to the potion itself.

Therefore, there should be no problem with the quality of the soul hypnosis potion.

"What's going on?"

Gu Qinghan frowned and found the book on the secrets of hypnosis from the bookshelf again, trying to find possible clues.

Soon, he found the page with the key information.

[Soul Hypnosis Potion]

Production Difficulty: LV.3

Ingredients: hypnotic powder, saline solution...

Gu Qinghan quickly glanced at the information about the medicine, his eyes moving downwards, and soon found the line of small words that recorded the key information -

[Note]: The success rate of oral hypnosis with this drug is only 30%. After soaking in warm water for more than one hour, the success rate can reach 70%; if injected intravenously, the success rate can reach 120%.

(For details, see Volume 2, Chapter 11, "Hypnotic Injection")

Looking at this slightly abrupt comment, Gu Qinghan couldn't help but frown.

When Gu Qinghan first found the recipe for the soul hypnotic potion in the book, he vaguely felt that something was wrong.

But due to the urgency of the situation, Gu Qinghan had no time to think carefully and could only bite the bullet and make the potion.

Today, this sense of disharmony has turned into a real difficulty.

Soul hypnosis potion does have a success rate.

But is this true?

If he were Hohenheim, he would never develop a drug with a 70% failure rate.

This really damages the reputation of "The Great Hypnotist".

Considering the actual depth of Lina's hypnosis, it is better to say that this is not so much the probability of success as it is... the effectiveness of the drug.

In other words, if taken orally, the soul hypnosis potion can only achieve 30% of its effectiveness.

Taking a warm water bath can bring out the seven effects.

If injected, 120 percent of the power will be exerted.

Thinking of this, Gu Qinghan had a bold idea.

After a tiring day at work, taking a bath occasionally might be a good idea.

Chapter 52: Plan Pass

Review week 3, Friday.

That day, Gu Qinghan quickly began to advance the experiment.

First, he deliberately resisted Lina's orders and refused to submit;

Then he put on a contemptuous and sarcastic expression and stared into Lina's eyes.

After a series of operations, Lina's competitive spirit was successfully aroused.

"Humph, a mere trash, I didn't expect you to be so tenacious!"

Lina pursed her lips and glanced at Gu Qinghan with cold eyes, her expression visibly angry.

"It seems that you have forgotten how I humiliated you a few days ago?"

As she spoke, Lina gave a sly smile, with a gleam in her eyes.

She stretched out her slender index finger, gently touched the button of her collar, and unbuttoned it with a snap.

The clothes were removed along her smooth skin, and little Lina placed one hand across her chest, revealing her seductive body.

What happened next became a matter of course.

Little Lina touched Gu Qinghan's cheek with her other hand, and her fingertips climbed up to his collar.

One button, two buttons.

The slender fingertips stroked down his chest until the entire piece of clothing was removed.

The corners of her lips slightly raised, staring at Gu Qinghan's dull eyes with a playful expression.

"Help me take a bath? This is Mr. Hohenheim's favorite thing, don't you think?"

Gu Qinghan had a blank expression on his face, but there was a barely perceptible light flashing in his eyes.

Slowly, he raised his hand and placed it gently on Lina's shoulder.

……

Twenty minutes later.

In the bathroom.

Drops of glistening dew condensed, slid down her smooth, white neck, and fell into the warm water.

At this time, little Lina was soaking in a wooden tub of warm water, her golden hair floating on the water, and a faint fragrance wafting through the air.

"Although your face is full of reluctance, your body is still very obedient and has prepared hot water in advance~"

Little Lena stared at Hohenheim with a smile, stretched out her milky arms, and let the man rub her wrists.

Just now when Lina pushed the door and entered the bathroom, she was stunned by the scene in front of her.

The wooden barrel was filled with hot water in advance and soaked with rose petals. In the corner of the wall, a small bonsai flower arrangement was delicate and beautiful, and the air was filled with a pleasant smell.

Mr. Hohenheim had prepared everything in advance and was waiting for her to take off her clothes and take a bath.

Lina felt dizzy. She had been soaking in the bathtub for a long time without realizing it, and her whole body became soft.

Really comfortable.

"Why did you stop moving? Is it because you want to be scolded?"
