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

Catalina narrowed her eyes, and a faint curve appeared at the corners of her lips.

"Mr. Hohenheim, you should know my abilities. You'd better not lie to me, okay?"

As she spoke, she stared intentionally into Gu Qinghan's eyes, giving off a strong sense of oppression.

Gu Qinghan coughed twice, looking a little embarrassed.

"How could that be? There are indeed some things that need to be cleaned..."

As he spoke, Gu Qinghan glanced towards the room behind him.

Mr. Catalina was stunned for a moment, then he understood something and his face turned red.

Inside the room, the huge bookcase shone brightly in the early morning sunlight, which was a bit eye-catching.

"It doesn't matter. I'm just standing outside the door this time. You don't have to rush to clean up."

As she spoke, Katerina's cheeks flushed slightly and she tried hard to pretend to be calm.

Gu Qinghan nodded slightly and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ok."

Gu Qinghan slowly closed the door, feeling a little calmer, and asked jokingly:

"But then again, today is not Monday, so Ms. Catalina is not here for an examination, right?"

"If you hadn't told me, I would have almost forgotten it."

Catalina patted her chest, then smiled bitterly and sighed:

"I really wasn't here for a routine checkup today, but something more serious has come up."

Catalina's tone was heavy, her pretty brows knitted together, as if the situation was very special.

Gu Qinghan frowned as well.

"What happened?"

"Last night, I just received news that the border wall outside the City of Dearest was penetrated, and a two-meter-high hole appeared."

Catalina spoke word by word, staring into Gu Qinghan's eyes.

Gu Qinghan couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

"what's the situation?"

"The Empire of Joy has launched an attack on the City of Beloved."

Gu Qinghan was stunned at first, then his eyes widened.

This kind of plot never happened in the original game.

It's simply beyond common sense.

"Has this been officially announced over there?"

"No."

Catalina shook her head slightly, frowning as she continued:

"The Empire of Joy denied the attack, claiming it was an individual act and had nothing to do with the authorities."

"But in my opinion, this is just a one-sided excuse on their part."

"In the Empire of Joy, at least someone has secretly sneaked into the City of Beloved and mixed into the residential area."

"They want to secretly release joyful magic on the residents of Beloved City and slander the existence of pure love."

Catalina’s words made Gu Qinghan fall into deep thought.

Indeed, this is not impossible.

"I came here specifically to tell you this time because I want to find clues."

Catalina's eyes were solemn. She took a deep breath, then stared at Gu Qinghan's face and said in a serious tone:

"Mr. Hohenheim, have you recently encountered a suspect who induced you to turn to evil?"

Gu Qinghan looked into Catalina's eyes and couldn't help falling into deep thought.

"What are the specific behaviors that lead to evil?"

"Inviting you to go out late at night, tempting you to be alone with the opposite sex, or inviting you to the other person's home, deliberately creating an ambiguous atmosphere, and doing something that crosses the line."

"Any actions related to this must be reported to me immediately and cannot be concealed."

Catalina spoke word by word in a low voice.

"If I hide it..."

"If you conceal it, please refer to the most severe punishment measures."

Gu Qinghan narrowed his eyes, kept silent, and his eyes flickered constantly.

Lianna... No, she couldn't be a spy sent by the Empire of Joy.

If the great Empire of Joy can only send such a strange guy to induce the residents to degenerate, it will make people worry about the future of the empire.

"I'm sorry, Miss Catalina, I can't provide similar information." After a long silence, he sighed.

Catalina was stunned.

"Are you sure, Mr. Hohenheim?"

"I am sure, Your Excellency the Inspector."

Catalina's eyes flickered continuously, as if she was considering the credibility of Hohenheim's words.

A few seconds of silence seemed as long as an hour.

"Okay, I'll believe you for now." Finally, Catalina smiled bitterly and nodded.

"If you find similar clues in the future, please feel free to contact me."

"No problem, Attorney General."

Gu Qinghan smiled and nodded, intending to send Katarina away.

Every time Catalina appears, Gu Qinghan always feels nervous.

"correct."

At this moment, the girl suddenly turned her head slowly and revealed a sunny smile.

"Excuse me, my dear Miss Inspector?" Gu Qinghan said with a sunny smile.

Katarina showed a playful smile, her red eyes flickering as she smiled:

"Mr. Hohenheim, you are not a criminal who was smuggled from the Empire of Joy, right?"

Gu Qinghan still maintained his smiling mask, his head buzzing.

"How could that be? Lady Catalina is such a joker..."

Gu Qinghan couldn't help but burst out laughing.

At the same time, the magic power in Gu Qinghan's body began to decline rapidly.

『Soul Piercing』: Consumes magic power when activated, increasing the credibility of the caster's speech.

"With your ability, it would be easy for you to find evidence of my smuggling, right?"

"The only reason I have not revealed my true identity until now is because I am innocent!"

Gu Qinghan's laughter sounded a little dry, but he could only go on with his performance.

Catalina's eyes flickered and finally she began to smile.

"That's right."

Gently waving her hand, the girl's lips curled up into a meaningful smile, leaving behind her beautiful back, and walked away:

"If you think of new information in a few days, please feel free to come back to me~"

Gu Qinghan stood there, looking at the empty corridor, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Gone, finally.

In just a few seconds, he clearly felt his back wet with cold sweat.

This guy who doesn't play by the rules...

Are all the Inspectors like this?

Gu Qinghan felt a headache.

It seems that we need to deal with the problem of Lianna's hypnosis depth as soon as possible.

If the depth of her hypnosis continues to increase, the truth will be revealed sooner or later.

Chapter 25 And you, my friend, are the real hero

Hypnosis removal potion.

The only way to reduce the depth of Lianna's hypnosis is to make a potion.

There is another prerequisite for making a successful hypnosis removal potion.

Make LV.1 sedative potion.

Fortunately, Gu Qinghan was already very skilled.

Two ice mint leaves and two drops of dream beast blood.

He quickly threw the medicine into the beaker and tapped it with his index finger, causing the cup to react violently.

Cold and hot, the two temperatures have a violent effect on the spring water in the early morning, and may explode at any time.

In just a few seconds, the drug will be destroyed and wasted due to overreaction.

However, after thirty-six training sessions yesterday, Gu Qinghan had become quite proficient in grasping the timing.

Om-!

The magic power was injected just right to quickly adjust the temperature in the beaker.

The temperature rises sharply and then drops quickly, alternating between cold and hot, but always within a safe range.

Gu Qinghan's eyes were solemn. He stared intently at the liquid in the beaker and held his breath.

In just a few seconds, cold sweat began to seep out of his forehead and the back of his shirt was already wet.

The mana consumption also quickly reached the bottom.

Halfway through the third minute, the medicine in the beaker gradually calmed down.

Gu Qinghan's magic power was also completely consumed.

LV.1 calming potion, successfully produced.

Looking at the colorless transparent liquid in the beaker, the heavy stone in Gu Qinghan's heart finally fell, and he began to breathe heavily.

it is finally over.

In order to make this sedative potion, Gu Qinghan spent a total of thirty-seven sets of medicinal materials and a huge amount of money.

However, when this moment really came, Gu Qinghan felt joy from the bottom of his heart.

It's all worth it!

In order to make a hypnotic potion, in order to get rid of the yellow-haired physique——

He has taken a crucial step!

Clenching his fists, Gu Qinghan wiped the sweat from his forehead, as if he felt redeemed.

In addition, he also gained a key means of income -

Make potions and sell them for money.

When I make medicine in the future, at least I won’t have to worry about not being able to afford the herbs!

Thinking of this, Gu Qinghan took a deep breath and his emotions gradually calmed down.

Next, he will go to purchase the magic core to confuse ghosts.
