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

Pretending not to understand the meaning of her words, Gu Qinghan turned aside and sat down at the alchemy table.

Lianna could not help but stand there in a daze.

Why was Mr. Hohenheim suddenly so cold to him?

Obviously, I didn't have this attitude just now...

Lianna blinked aggrievedly, noticed the abnormality on Hohenheim's face, and then was stunned.

The roots of his ears were slightly red, and although his expression looked calm, it was obvious that he was not at peace inside.

After realizing this, Lianna couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips slightly.

It turned out to be the case.

"Today's work is very busy, so I'd better start working as early as possible. I won't bother you for now~"

With a sly smile, Lianna waved her hand and decided to go back to her home first.

The workload today was heavy, and she planned to help Mr. Hohenheim replenish his energy, which was also very important.

"Well, be careful that walls have ears, don't let passers-by bump into you."

After giving some instructions, Gu Qinghan sent Lianna away and started the most critical work.

It was already two o'clock in the afternoon and there were still a few hours before dark.

The residents who were dispersed would probably return in two groups. The residents who were affected by the battle would stay in the church for a while.

And more residents who have not been affected will probably go home and rest tonight.

That is to say, from now on, sporadic residents will begin to return to Dieter Street.

Unfortunately, due to Gu Qinghan's strategy, the majority of residential buildings were not affected.

"If I want to cooperate openly with Miss Lianna, I can only do so until tonight..."

Muttering to himself, Gu Qinghan secretly calculated the time in his heart.

The countdown for the wall to become "earless" will not exceed five hours.

Before that, we have to at least find the key clues.

Thinking of this, Gu Qinghan took a deep breath and his expression became visibly solemn.

He scanned the room, wondering where the villain Hohenheim might reveal himself.

The first thing that Gu Qinghan noticed was the huge bookshelf next to the alchemy table.

In addition to the thick book "The Secret of Hypnosis", Gu Qinghan also took down all the books on the bookshelf this time and placed them in a mess on the ground.

Of course, even the entire box of obscure books was packed out by Gu Qinghan.

In the gaps between partitions, between the pages of books, and in the inconspicuous corners between bookshelves and walls.

It took a full hour to search every corner and flip through every book.

However, the results were disappointing.

There weren't any special new clues.

Except for the book on the secrets of hypnosis.

Gu Qinghan gently wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked at the unusual black hardcover book in his hand, reached out his hand with a serious expression, and turned to a certain page.

——"A true master can only hypnotize himself."

A few scribbled words appeared in the center of the paper.

When he first saw this sentence, Gu Qinghan didn't think much about it and just thought that this was a charlatan.

It's just a mystery.

However, after the fight with Richard, Gu Qinghan looked back and found that this sentence contained a huge amount of information.

"Hypnotize yourself".

What does it mean?

Is it a hint that Gu Qinghan once hypnotized himself?

Gu Qinghan's expression gradually became solemn.

If this is true, then the probability that Gu Qinghan is Hohenheim will be greatly increased.

Following this clue, after he traveled to this world, he claimed to be Hohenheim and had interactions with many people in the Empire of Joy...

Then lose this part of memory.

is it possible?

Thinking of this, Gu Qinghan felt his scalp tingling.

If he really experienced all of this personally, then what happened that made him want to lose all his memories?

Gu Qinghan couldn't imagine it.

Given his personality, he will definitely try his best and never give up.

It is unlikely that one would choose to lose his memory and then hide in a peaceful city in the Pure Love Kingdom to recuperate.

Thinking of this, Gu Qinghan took a deep breath.

Well, there is another possible answer.

This was a deliberate trap set by Mr. Hohenheim.

He understood Gu Qinghan's situation very well.

Looking back, the layout of this room is extremely strange.

This book on the secrets of hypnosis is obviously an introductory book for beginners. A hypnotist like Hohenheim should obviously not carry it with him.

Apart from this, most of the other books on the bookshelf are like this.

It seemed as if it was tailor-made for Gu Qinghan, a layman.

The strangest thing was the box of small books.

When he was caught by Catalina for the first time, Gu Qinghan used this box of small erotic books in a hurry and successfully escaped.

At the time, he thought he was being quick-witted.

Looking back now, it was actually full of loopholes.

After all, Mr. Hohenheim needs the little book?

He has all the hypnotic methods he wants, but paper people are completely meaningless to him.

In addition, there is another detail in this book on the secrets of hypnosis that also caught Gu Qinghan's attention.

[Hypnosis Removal Potion]

Production Difficulty: LV.2

Element:……

How to use: After bathing in the sober spring water that dissolves the magic core for half an hour, drink the sedative potion.

The introduction seemed ordinary, but if Gu Qinghan had not made it himself, he would not have noticed the clues.

The annotation used by Hohenheim is "dissolving" the magic core.

However, it is impossible to successfully produce it using the true dissolution method.

That is chemical knowledge from the original world. If you are not from that world, it would be difficult to think of this method.

In other words, he is most likely from the Blue Planet.

Same as Gu Qinghan.

Thinking of this, Gu Qinghan's face gradually became gloomy.

The possibility that Gu Qinghan is Hohenheim has increased.

Whether or not he was actually Hohenheim was probably a difficult question that required a long period of exploration.

At the same time, there was another knock on the door.

"Mr. Hohenheim, please open the door for me~"

The gentle voice interrupted Gu Qinghan's thoughts. After taking a deep breath, Gu Qinghan put aside the headache he had just had and stood up to open the door.

It is better to put aside the difficult things for the time being.

…………

PS: Deduct 1 and add another chapter tonight!

Chapter 87 (Update!) Lianna's Reaction

The door creaked open, just as Gu Qinghan had expected.

Lianna looked at Gu Qinghan with a smile on her face, holding a wooden square plate in her hand, and winked mischievously.

Fruit slices, small desserts, tea, and a variety of brightly colored snacks.

It is so dazzling that it makes people's mouths full of saliva and their appetite is greatly stimulated.

The corners of Gu Qinghan's mouth twitched.

"...Did you move all the snacks from home here?" He couldn't help but complain.

If it wasn't for an urgent matter, Gu Qinghan would have thought he was on vacation.

Gu Qinghan planned to help put the pastries aside first, so he reached out to take the square plate from Lianna's hand.

"Don't worry, Master. This is what I should do."

Liana slightly turned sideways to avoid Gu Qinghan's palm. Their fingertips only touched slightly before they passed each other.

"Master, you can continue to work. I will arrange it for you~"

The corners of Lianna's lips rose slightly, and her delicate body dodged Gu Qinghan's obstruction like a loach, and she looked back with a meaningful smile.

Gu Qinghan looked at her hurried figure and could only shake his head and sigh helplessly.

Since Lianna insisted on doing this, all she could do was obey.

Gu Qinghan gently pressed his temples and felt a headache, but eventually he returned and sat back in his chair.

"This is the right thing to do."

Lianna smiled slightly, tore the tea bag she brought and put it into the wooden cup, then poured in boiling water.

The hot steam, accompanied by the faint fragrance of tea, floats in the small house.

Cakes, fruits and biscuits were taken out one by one and placed on the table.

Gu Qinghan looked at Liana's gentle movements and felt a little more relaxed. The boredom of searching for clues just now was also swept away.

Anyway, at least Lianna can be trusted.

At this moment, when Gu Qinghan was still immersed in his memories, Lianna next to him screamed quickly.

“——Aaaah!”

Gu Qinghan suddenly perked up and looked towards Lianna's position with a slightly nervous expression.

"What's wrong?" He spoke very quickly.

Lianna's body trembled slightly, her face flushed, and she showed a complicated smile.

On the back of her creamy white hand, a faint stain of tea was steaming, and her skin was red and hot.

"It's okay, it's just boiling water splashing on the back of my hand."

Lianna bit her silver teeth lightly, uttered a few words, and her breathing began to become heavy.

"Let me do it..."

Gu Qinghan sighed softly, noticing the blush on the girl's cheeks, and felt a little bit sorry for her.

"Show me your hands, too."

Without further ado, Gu Qinghan reached out and grasped the girl's slender wrist.
