A kiss, and I'll live another day; they begged me not to go crazy.

Liu Qi leisurely picked up his teacup and took a sip of the fragrant tea that Wang Er had personally poured for him.

Then he said slowly:

"It's said that even law enforcement has gotten involved in the investigation."

As he spoke, he slightly raised his hand and pointed towards the sky.

......

Wang Er nodded knowingly, indicating that he understood the deeper meaning.

Then, he replied thoughtfully:

"Judging from this, this matter has probably become quite a big deal."

......

Liu Qi nodded and agreed, "Yes, it is indeed extraordinary."

Wang Er asked curiously, "So, what's the result now?"

......

Liu Qi frowned, a hint of doubt in his eyes, and replied:

"It's strange, really. It's said that even the law enforcement officers haven't reached a conclusion yet."

Furthermore, based on what I know, the items crafted by the senior brothers on Danfeng's side...

Even this thing called 'surveillance' failed to detect the slightest clue.

......

"Surveillance?" Wang Er showed great interest in this unfamiliar term.

Only then did Liu Qi realize that he had not mentioned this matter to Wang Er before.

So he quickly explained:

"Oh, it's the novel item that I told you about before, created by that senior brother from Danfeng."

It can record and preserve the scene of what happened, so that people can see it even if they are thousands of miles away.

It's amazing how clearly you can see those images!

......

Wang Er's eyes widened, his face filled with disbelief, and he exclaimed in amazement:

"How could it be so amazing?!"

That's unbelievable!

......

Liu Qi nodded firmly and said, "That's right, that's exactly it."

Wang Er: "Even with such a wondrous object, they still couldn't find the culprit behind this incident?"

"Yes," Liu Qi sighed.

......

"What should we do?"

"Such powerful magical artifacts are useless; no wonder everyone is filled with fear and unease," Wang Er sighed.

......

Wang Er and Liu Qi discussed this recent incident.

Although they were nobodies, they were still very worried about the safety of their fellow disciples in the sect.

However, since even law enforcement has not yet reached a conclusion on this matter, it is naturally difficult for the two of them to draw a definite conclusion about the culprit.

As dusk approached and night was about to fall, Liu Qi picked up the herbal tea that Wang Er had carefully packed for him and set off on his journey home.

......

When Liu Qi returned home, he was surprised to find his father, who was rarely home, sitting in the main room.

“Father!” Liu Qi hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.

......

Mr. Liu had a smile on his face and a kind and approachable expression, looking just like a friendly neighbor.

"Did you go out to find your friend?" Mr. Liu asked gently.

It turned out that Liu's father knew perfectly well that his son had stolen and eaten the poisoned chicken with others.

It was also clear that the two of them were caught red-handed by the old doctor.

However, in the end, only the other party is punished, while their own child remains unharmed and continues to live a carefree life.

For this reason, Liu's father did not object to Liu Qi's frequent visits to his friends.

In fact, many of the magical artifacts that Liu Qi had given to Wang Er for self-defense were made by Liu's father.

Mr. Liu did not interfere with his son's friendships, as long as the other child did not associate with people of ill intent.

......

However, the situation has become somewhat complicated during this special period.

"If you don't have anything urgent to do recently, you can stay in the school building for now and stop going back and forth so frequently."

Mr. Liu suddenly spoke with a serious expression.

Upon hearing this, Liu Qi was taken aback for a moment, then seemed to realize something.

He quickly pressed on, "Father, has the situation really become that dire?"

Faced with his son's urgent questioning, Mr. Liu did not try to evade the issue.

Instead, he nodded with a grave expression, indicating that the situation was indeed not optimistic.

......

Liu Qi stared intently at his father, and when he saw his father nod slightly in agreement,

He knew in his heart that this was not the time to indulge his whims.

So he took a deep breath and solemnly said:

“Yes, Father. I will move to the school building tomorrow.”

Father, please be extra careful about your safety when you go out on errands!

......

Mr. Liu smiled and nodded, feeling a deep sense of relief.

He knew his child very well.

Although Liu Qi can be quite mischievous at times, he has always been able to distinguish right from wrong and prioritize important matters.

This is one of the reasons why he has always loved this son so much.

......

As he spoke, Liu's father pulled out a large pile of magical artifacts that shimmered with spiritual light from his robes.

He handed these to Liu Qi, saying, "Child, these are for self-defense."

Those who have gone missing are all young men around twenty years old, so you absolutely must not let your guard down!

"I'm usually busy with sect affairs and have no time to take care of you."

"I can only hope that you will be careful, and I hope my son will not resent his father." Father Liu's deep love for his son was evident in his words.

......

Upon hearing this, Liu Qi quickly extended both hands and respectfully accepted the pile of magical artifacts.

He looked up and stared directly at his father:

"Father, what are you saying? Your son is able to cultivate in the sect."

He obtained cultivation resources that many people envy, all thanks to his father's protection.

Is my son really that ungrateful?

He said with tears of gratitude, "Thank you so much for your care and gift, Father. I will cherish it and use it with utmost care!"

......

Mr. Liu nodded slightly, indicating his satisfaction.

The next day, Wang Er was busy in the herb garden as usual when he suddenly received a message from Liu Qi.

He learned that his only friend was about to move to the school building and that he probably wouldn't have the chance to see him again for a while.

......

For a moment, Wang Er couldn't help but feel somewhat saddened.

You should know that this huge medicinal herb garden is usually almost deserted, with only Liu Qi occasionally coming to visit and keep you company.

Now that even the only friend I can talk to is leaving, isn't it as if I'm truly isolated from the world?

However, he knew that this matter was of great importance and that he could not jeopardize his friend's future and safety for his own selfish reasons.

Thinking of this, Wang Erqiang perked up: "Liu Qi, you'd better be careful!"

......

A short while later, a gentle breeze blew by, and Liu Qi's response came through the jade slip: "Don't worry, Wang Er!"

You can focus on your work in the herb garden, but unless it's absolutely necessary, do not step out of the garden.

After all, this place is protected by an array carefully set up by the old master of medicine, making it difficult for ordinary people to break in.

Let's all take care of ourselves, and meet again to talk things over once this storm has passed!
