The weapon refiner is not doing her job properly

Chapter 42 Museum Gem Tree
"So, you've seen through the secret spirit's plan?"

Su Ninglong kicked off her leather shoes and stepped on the chair. "Yes, yes, it's all thanks to my cleverness."

She gestured with her hands and feet, intending to show them some skills from the world of cultivation to broaden their horizons.

Xing Yuan covered his face. The naughty kid treated Xing Police as a decoration and even dared to climb onto the table.

After she continued talking like this until dawn, he could only throw out his trump card, "Ning Long, I have reserved the museum tickets for tomorrow. Do you plan to tell stories all night and then go directly to the museum?"

"You should have said it earlier." The little girl immediately sat back cross-legged.

With a stern face, she used "first, secondly, and lastly" to sort out the case without any exaggerated words. In just a few minutes, she explained all her reasoning and actions.

The Star Police officer monitoring her physiological condition outside communicated with the Star Police officer in the interrogation room through the headset: "Everything is normal. The equipment did not detect any fluctuations in the lying curve."

The four-year-old child cracked the secret of the triple space, and directly attacked the mysterious spirit, eliminating the "main culprit" and imprisoning the "accomplice". This talent is really amazing.

Winning entirely by relying on IQ is like shooting down a starship with an embroidery needle.

Of course, the mental anchor and earrings also played a role, but their effectiveness was particularly weak in front of the "spider web" laid by the shadow crawlers.

Although the person asking the question didn't want to believe it, most children couldn't give Su Ninglong's logical narration.

As for Xiaoliu, he is the White Hunter and the Star Police in the nearby neighborhoods all know him.

According to the records, he had carried out a total of fifteen missions, but the twelve red "Mission Failed" marks would sting any hunter's retina.

Some people say that he killed his teammates, some say that he deliberately framed his teammates. In any case, none of his teammates who had been in the team with him for a long time are still alive.

All "failed missions" require calling other hunters to come and clean up the mess, which can be called a living jinx.

How could such a person possibly help the children pass the customs?

It can only be that Su Ninglong is too good, and he carried Xiaoliu away in the opposite direction. Unfortunately, he had been seriously polluted and was still erupting in the secret spirit area.

When they left the police station, it was snowing outside. The high beams of the police aircraft pierced the snowy night. The police officers sent Su Ninglong back to Zou's Bar.

The halo of light from the crystal chandelier in the bar was flowing out of the glass window, and a dozen wine bottles were placed on the windowsill.

Seeing the police car coming, the bar patrons looked around and asked in a low voice what had happened.

Several familiar drinkers had waited until now, and when Su Ninglong was led out of the car by Xing Yuan, they finally let go of their worries.

"My dear, if I can't see you tonight, I will have to take three sleeping pills before I can sleep peacefully." Ziyue hugged Su Ninglong tightly.

Su Ninglong was almost out of breath: "So you will still sleep peacefully, right!"

"Well, I heard that some loser named Bai Lie kidnapped you." The person next to Ziyue guessed, "Is that loser Xiao Liu?"

"How do you know?" Zi Yue let go of Su Ninglong and asked.

"He's been targeted for a long time." The man with the snake tattoo twirled his wine glass, looking mysterious. "Xiao Liu has been talking about reaching the second star level recently, but with his strength, reaching the second star level is purely to contribute to the Secret Spirit. He kept talking about it, and someone, under the guise of helping him reach the second star level, extorted tens of thousands of dollars from him, a rookie. All the money he earned from online hunting is gone."

"Where did the news come from?"

"My parents used to be involved in the gray area and knew a few big scammers. It's normal."

While asking questions, regular customers of the bar kept stuffing snacks and small toys into Su Ninglong's pockets to soothe her "frightened" heart.

Xing Yuan frowned.

Su Ninglong accepted everyone's offer and gave back a lot of emotional value, "Wow, I get it, I understand you all. But if you want to know what will happen, wait until tomorrow. I'm going to sleep."

Su Ninglong said good night to everyone enthusiastically and blew kisses to them, just like a fan meeting.

Ziyue blew her a kiss in return, "See you tomorrow night, wait for me."

Xing Yuan: “…” It turned out to be a group of gossips.

A young police officer walked across the hall, approached the bar, and asked, "Ms. Zou, I'd like to know something. When was the last time you saw Xiaoliu..."

Zou Shuyi told the truth when Police Star asked her whether she had urged Xiaoliu to get a physical examination.

Zou Shuyi said firmly, "Of course. I asked him to get a physical examination before the deadline. At the time, I also told him that he was in trouble and that I could lend him some star coins to tide him over. He was unwilling to communicate with me, and we even had a bit of an argument."

Zou Shuyi has been the head of the intelligence department for several years. The department's responsibilities are to collect information about secret spirits and urge hunters to take good care of their bodies.

This was also the first time she encountered a hunter who refused to undergo a physical examination.

But she was not in a position to know more about the hunter's privacy.

"Thank you for letting me know." The star police officer's name is Xue Wanshan, a new star police officer who has just been transferred to this area.

The old man shook his head and said to Zou Shuyi, "He's new here, very responsible, and curious about everything."

Zou Shuyi can understand the common problems of new star police officers.

Xiaoliu has no relatives, and his death was directly caused by the secret spirit, so it will not attract public attention.

Why did he kidnap Su Ninglong and who bewitched him? I guess it will end up in nothing.

It would be nice if the young policeman was willing to devote some of his energy to it, perhaps Xiaoliu could die clearly.

After sending the Star Police away, Zou Shuyi rubbed the stiff muscles in her neck and, while settling the accounts, took the opportunity to deal with today's intelligence matters.

As long as the intelligence personnel at No. 1 Xinglaier Street check the energy reaction again and confirm that there is no mysterious spiritual energy, the mission will be completed.

Zou Shuyi added the Xinglaier Street mission to the list of people to be cleared by hunters.

Then the inspection mission was snatched away by someone else. Everyone likes to take on this kind of mission. The reward is not much, but there is no danger.

Su Ninglong is the main conqueror of the secret spirit area, which is a bit troublesome. She is not a hunter, but just a student.

Zou Shuyi waved her hand and let the Star Alliance handle the troublesome matters. If her goddaughter was not satisfied with the result, she would be responsible for rejecting it. The plan was successful.

The next day, Su Ninglong was woken up by Xing Yuan. She smacked her lips sleepily, and the garlic aroma of dried fish seemed to linger between her teeth.

She exhaled a breath, which seemed a bit smelly. She brushed her teeth last night.

Looks like I'll have to brush twice more in the morning.

Xingyuan helped her pick out a two-piece suit that was easy to move in.

She put on a short coat and a Ding Ding Mouse hat, which covered her ears to protect her from the cold. After she was dressed, Xing Yuan helped her remove the bandage. The wound had basically healed without any abnormal changes. "You are really lucky. You were directly injured by the secret spirit, but you can still escape unscathed."

"Didn't I check last night? There are no marks on my body. That uncle is a good man." Although the whip is deadly, it will not cause any abnormalities. Even if it does, as long as they leave the secret spiritual area, Su Ninglong can use spiritual fire to eliminate that minor impact. Her physique and mentality are much better than those of ordinary hunters.

After Meimei had breakfast, Charlie's father brought Charlie to pick her and Xingyuan up to go to the museum.

After getting in the car, Su Ninglong saw Charlie sitting in the corner and Haiyu dressed casually. She greeted them, "Uncle Hai, good morning Charlie."

Haiyu smiled and nodded.

Charlie looked depressed and listless, and Su Ninglong suddenly felt relieved that she didn't have to deal with the child.

Charlie's eyes kept drifting towards Su Ninglong, but Su Ninglong took the initiative to disconnect the receiver and lay by the window to look at the scenery.

There are tall buildings along the way, and the middle and ground floors are used as commercial areas.

A mechanical squirrel leaps over a holographic billboard with a pine cone in its mouth, performing all sorts of adorable moves; a suspended train weaves through an intertwined branch-like overpass; and there's a peculiarly shaped machine spraying repair materials, repairing all potholes on the road wherever it passes.

In the world of cultivation, mortals have to repair roads one by one by themselves, but here one machine can do it directly, efficiently and neatly.

Before arriving at the museum, Charlie finally couldn’t help but said, “Sister Su, why don’t you ask me why I’m unhappy.”

"Why should I ask? Your unhappiness is your business. I'm very happy today and I don't want you to ruin my good mood for the time being."

Charlie's father couldn't hold it in any longer and laughed out loud, "Hahaha, Ning Long is right. You can't let negative emotions affect you. He woke up this morning and heard that my wife couldn't come with us, so he got upset and was ready to complain to you, but you didn't respond."

"Dad." Charlie's eyes were full of tears, "You cried in front of Mom too."

"I was just complaining to your mother, I didn't cry." Charlie's father refused to admit his embarrassing behavior.

After arriving at the museum and parking the aircraft, Haiyu and Xingyuan showed the reservation code to the museum staff.

Before entering the venue, Su Ninglong and Charlie had to measure their heights. After the measurement, they were given a free children's play ticket, which allowed them to play some new technology projects for free, such as riding a mechanical dog and a suspended trampoline.

Looking at the ruler, Su Ninglong remembered the scale on the clock at No. 1 Xinglai Street.

She realized that the scratches on the side of the clock were not randomly carved, but rather reflected the love of Zhang's parents for their daughter. They were always paying attention to their daughter's height.

Su Ninglong smiled knowingly and followed Xing Yuan into the museum.

The museum is built on an ancient relic. The bottom floor is the ruins, and the upper floors are a series of objects and historical exhibitions from the early days of the city to the present.

If you want to tour the entire museum, it will take more than three days. Their main purpose is to visit the ancient ruins at the bottom layer.

There were many students visiting today. Xing Yuan was afraid that Su Ninglong would get lost, so he bought a dog leash, bah, a child's leash, and put it on Su Ninglong.

After putting it on, Su Ninglong looked down and said, "Brother Yuan, I feel my self-esteem has been hurt."

"Be good, it's better than being kidnapped." Xing Yuan was frightened by the sudden incident. Some children are not suitable to be in the crowd.

Su Ninglong ate a lollipop and looked at other parents and children. She felt relieved when she saw that three or four out of ten of them did the same thing.

As long as it's not abrupt, she is willing to be a quiet and beautiful girl.

"Let's go see the ancient monuments. I can't wait to expand my knowledge." It was Su Ninglong's first time traveling, and the first place he went to was a high-end museum. He was curious about everything.

Charlie, who had been here twice, was not very interested. Only when Su Ninglong pointed to a gem tree and asked what it was, did he get excited and explain it to Su Ninglong.

"This is the Gem Tree. Ding Ding Mouse has explained it to me."

"And then?" Su Ninglong asked, "When was it built? What kind of craftsmanship was used? How did it achieve such lifelike beauty? Such a large gem tree must have cost a lot of money to build. Who was the one who got away with such a unique aesthetic taste and was the one who did this?"

Charlie looked confused and turned to look at Haiyu and Xingyuan.

Even knowledgeable leaders cannot answer this question because they are not omniscient.

"Little friend, this was created by the ancestors of the Yuandu family with the painstaking efforts of five generations. It is a treasure of art." A man standing under the gem tree explained with a smile, holding a camera.

"Five generations of people are so rich?" Su Ninglong didn't believe it.

"We've had our downfalls, like last century, but we quickly rose again. That's the legacy of a family." He smiled shyly. "I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Mao Xi, a freelance journalist specializing in exploring history and popularizing it to the public. Of course, I also cover the humanities."

"Hello, I'm Su Ninglong." Su Ninglong didn't introduce the person behind him at all. There was no need to, after all, they were just chance acquaintances.

"You said this was the work of the Yuandu family. Are all the members of this family dead? Is there no one to inherit it?"

"No, little one, this family is still alive and very wealthy. They believe this gem tree has reached the pinnacle of art, so they've temporarily put it on display here. The Yuandu family appreciates beautiful things and often does good deeds. Since the interstellar fusion, they've donated a large number of artifacts to the museum, giving us the opportunity to witness history together."

"You seem to admire this family very much."

"Well, who doesn't want to be as powerful as the people in their family?"

Su Ninglong turned around and asked, "Brother Yuan, do you also like the people in this family?"

"I don't feel anything." Xing Yuan spoke truthfully. He had spent the past twenty years of his life working part-time and studying hard. He only knew that the Yuandu family was one of the legendary families.

It may have been as rich as a country in the past, but after the interstellar integration, it is at most a small shrimp.

The size of a family can never be larger than a country formed after interstellar fusion.

Su Ninglong looked up at the gem tree. This thing was not good. It had a very evil aura. It was either dug out from a pile of corpses or it had taken lives on its shoulders.

She had only seen such a strong murderous aura on large-scale mortal battlefields.

But with such a large building and crowds dispersed and suppressed, it doesn't matter if it's unlucky.

Unlucky does not mean a bad omen.

Putting it here will at most distract people, and then the unlucky person will fall.

As soon as the thought came to his mind, Charlie, who had taken only two steps, and the self-media person who was walking downstairs fell down together.

The posture was very standard, just like a dog eating shit. Fortunately, there was a carpet to cushion the pain, otherwise Charlie and Maoxi would have to see a dentist.

Su Ninglong shook his head with an expression of being not surprised. After all, the cabbage could just "fly" randomly and land on Charlie's head.

Mao Xi patted his clothes and wiped the blood from his nose with a tissue as usual. "Excuse me for making you laugh, but do you need a tour guide? I can explain the history of this ancient ruins to you for free."

Is there such a good thing?
After a while, they found out that Mao Xi was not being kind. He was going to do a live broadcast and explain it to them at the same time to make it seem less awkward.
