"Isn't that right, Miss Katharina?"
As he spoke, Gu Qinghan specifically raised his eyebrows in the direction of Catalina, with an expression that looked like he was asking for a fight.
"...Shut up."
Catalina held her forehead and sighed, beginning to regret letting this guy continue talking.

PS: Some readers have reported that the progress has been slow recently. To make everyone happy, we will enter a long period of bullet time next month.
In this way, friends who like to see the emotions of the characters and the progress of the story can be happy~
But for the last few days of this month, please allow me to take a break. I am so tired after just putting the products on the shelves, and I am a bit slow in typing.
Chapter 79 Ending
Catalina naturally knew what he meant.
Thinking of what happened that night, Catalina wished she could find a hole to crawl into, and her face turned red.
That night, she visited Hohenheim's home and tasted delicious food.
Of course, she had already observed Hohenheim's intentions with the Tracker and knew that there was something unspeakable hidden in the dish.
Hypnotic powder.
However, Catalina didn't think that kind of thing would have any practical effect on her.
In the end, just as Catalina expected, it was not the sleeping pills that knocked her down, but alcohol.
The next morning, Catalina slept safely in her bedroom.
Considering her own gaffe, Caterina quickly found Hohenheim again and suggested that they not bring it up again at this time.
And now, this guy is actually talking about this kind of thing again!
Katarina's face turned red. If looks could kill, she would have wanted to kill Hohenheim a few more times.
"Look, Lady Knight is well prepared and doesn't take the hypnotic powder seriously at all."
As he spoke, Gu Qinghan turned around with a teasing look on his face and looked at Catalina again.
Catalina gritted her teeth and finally couldn't bear it anymore.
"I've already told you, don't reveal what happened that night, okay!"
"Well, did I ever promise something like this?"
Gu Qinghan blinked and pretended to be dumb as if he had no idea.
"you!"
Catalina was so angry that her teeth were itching, but she couldn't do anything to this man.
"But you don't have to be too anxious. There's no one else around now anyway..."
Having said that, Gu Qinghan changed the subject and looked at Richard next to him with suddenly cold eyes.
"Except for a certain criminal who is to be imprisoned in the dungeon, of course."
Catalina was furious and stared at Gu Qinghan with gritted teeth, not understanding why this guy looked so unfazed.
But, what he said does make some sense.
The people and members of the monitoring team were evacuated, and No. 38 Dieter Street was empty, with only Richard left.
Thinking of this, Catalina's eyes gradually calmed down, and she was finally able to accept it a little.
Looking at Richard again, Catalina's eyes were filled with pity.
The crime Richard had committed was enough to get him locked up in a dungeon for a hundred years, where he would be tortured with all kinds of humiliating punishments until he lost consciousness.
The information about the Empire of Joy will surely be squeezed out without leaving a single drop.
Richard stood there in a daze, looking at Catalina with an unclear look. He opened his mouth but could not say anything.
The mission ultimately failed.
Is this the end of it?
Richard's body began to tremble.
Thinking of Sister Xue’s cold gaze in the illusion, Richard felt his stomach churning and his face turned purple.
On the other side, Gu Qinghan also turned back to look at Richard, temporarily stopped flirting with Miss Catalina, and solemnly made the final judgment:
"Do you have anything else to ask?"
His words were so cold that they made people feel like they were falling into an ice cellar.
Richard raised his head with a dull look, glanced at Mr. Hohenheim, and then at Miss Katharina.
The answer given by Mr. Hohenheim so far has completely shattered his self-confidence.
Like a deflated ball, Richard collapsed on the spot, his eyes becoming dull.
"It's my complete defeat."
Richard squeezed out a few words from between his teeth, one by one.
Gu Qinghan nodded slightly, his expression softening a lot.
At this point, the farce finally came to an end.
On the empty streets, the yellow cordon has been damaged and many walls have been pierced by swords and are in danger of collapsing at any time.
There were potholes in every corner of the street. In just one morning, the entire street was completely destroyed.
It can be said that this is the result of Gu Qinghan doing his best to keep the combat disasters to a minimum.
The best strategy is to use hypnosis to make Richard lose his ability to fight from the very beginning.
Not only that, for Gu Qinghan, this combat method has another advantage.
That is, it will not consume too much magic in the air.
Of course, he would not tell anyone present the reason for ensuring the concentration of magic elements in the air.
After all, Lianna was still lying naked on his bed.
"Now that it's over and you've admitted defeat, there's no point in me staying here."
As he spoke, Gu Qinghan let out a long sigh, and finally a slightly relaxed smile appeared on his face.
"I have done everything I can. I still have some things to do at home. I will go upstairs first. You two can talk slowly."
As he spoke, Gu Qinghan waved at Catalina, turned around and was about to leave.
At this moment, Richard, who had become depressed just now, suddenly raised his head and looked at Gu Qinghan's back with sharp eyes.
"Wait a moment, Mr. Hohenheim."
With a hoarse voice, Richard slowly opened his mouth with a dull expression.
On the other side, Gu Qinghan couldn't help but pause and slowly turned back to look at Richard.
"Is there anything else?" Gu Qinghan frowned.
He is still waiting to clean up the mess at home.
If we get caught by Catalina, all our efforts will be wasted!
Richard opened his mouth, as if hesitating about something, unsure whether to ask.
The breeze blew up a few dead leaves on the street, and the humid air made it hard to breathe.
After a brief silence, Richard finally mustered up his courage, gritted his teeth, looked up and looked directly into Gu Qinghan's eyes:
"I have one last question."
Richard spoke through gritted teeth, enunciating each word.
Gu Qinghan couldn't help but narrow his eyes, feeling an inexplicable sense of bad premonition.
"what's up?"
"Mr. Hohenheim, when you first appeared downstairs at Building 38, you said something. Do you remember?"
Gu Qinghan was stunned at first, then frowned and fell into deep thought.
"What did I say?"
"'How did someone steal my hypnotic recipe?' You said this, please don't deny it."
Richard's expression was solemn, his eyes fixed on Gu Qinghan, not wanting to miss any details of his micro-expressions.
For Richard, this was a question that had always lingered in his heart.
If his guess was correct, Mr. Hohenheim might have another identity.
Gu Qinghan was stunned at first, looking at Richard's serious pupils, and then fell into deep thought.
Come to think of it, he did seem to have said something like this.
When he smelled the scent of the joyful blood mist, Gu Qinghan initially mistakenly thought that it was the drug powder on the mask leaking out.
Although the two are different in color, their formulas are surprisingly similar.
Thinking of this, Gu Qinghan nodded slowly, and then said:
"I did say that."
After hearing Gu Qinghan's reply, Richard's expression became more solemn.
"Your understanding is that my blood mist of joy is very similar to your hypnotic powder?"
Gu Qinghan looked into Richard's eyes and nodded gently:
"Yes."
"Then may I ask, did you prepare the prescription for this hypnotic powder yourself?"
At this moment, a sharpness flashed in Richard's eyes, and the decadent feeling just now gradually disappeared, and was replaced by some strange emotion.
Gu Qinghan couldn't help but narrow his eyes.
Faintly, he smelled the scent of a trap.

PS: Deduct 1 and update tonight
Chapter 80 You and I are both villains
The recipe for this hypnotic powder is indeed extremely similar to the Joyful Blood Mist.
But this has nothing to do with Gu Qinghan.
That was Hohenheim's business and had nothing to do with him as a time traveler.
However, Gu Qinghan could not say the four words "It has nothing to do with me".
The reason is simple, Catalina is watching right next to them.
As a "homebody" Hohenheim is trusted by Miss Katharina, so perhaps he can be exempted from the responsibility of making the powder for the time being.
But if someone else refined the powder and gave it to Hohenheim, and it then spread through his hands, the properties would be completely different.
Therefore, there can only be one source for this hypnotic prescription.
"Yes, these prescriptions were prepared by me, Hohenheim."
After thinking it over again and again, Gu Qinghan answered with a serious expression.
Richard was stunned at first, then he forced himself to suppress the excitement in his heart and looked at Catalina again.
The latter still kept the "Tracker" turned on at this time, but did not say that this sentence was a lie.
In other words, the hypnotic powder was indeed made by the man in front of him named "Hohenheim".
What does this mean?
