Since Su Li and Xia Ke were the only two left in the entire Detective Bureau, this place became their first private space alone together.

Su Li sat in Secretary Wang's office chair, and Xia Ke sat on Su Li. They spoke in hushed tones, and for a while, the entire Detective Bureau was filled with the cloying scent of romance.

It wasn't until an hour later, when Su Li received the file for the Guidance Technique from Secretary Wang, that they stopped.

"It's quite similar to the Breathing Technique. It shouldn't be hard to learn!"

Su Li quickly scanned the Guidance Technique and immediately understood most of it.

The complete version of the Breathing Technique still couldn't compare to Infinite Star Sea. Of course, it was also possible that this was still a simplified version.

However, even so, its efficiency was much higher than the Breathing Technique used by ordinary people!

"Did you understand it? Can you explain it to me?" Xia Ke asked, looking confused.

"Sure, but you have to get off me first. I can't explain it like this!" Su Li said with a smile.

"Hate you!"

Xia Ke's cheeks flushed slightly. After muttering something, she climbed off Su Li.

A moment later, Xia Ke brought a small stool from outside and listened to Su Li's explanation like a student.

Until noon—

"Are you hungry?" Su Li asked Xia Ke.

"Not hungry!"

"Oh! Then let's continue!"

"No more, my head is going to explode from listening! I'm not like you, understanding it after just one read!" Xia Ke looked at Su Li with a hint of envy and admiration in her eyes!

"Of course, geniuses like me are very rare!"

"Hmph, narcissist!"

"My Xia Ke is also a genius, otherwise, how could she become a Superhuman with me?"

"Whose 'mine' are you?"

"Yours, of course..."

The two chatted for a while longer. After a moment, Su Li said, "Xia Ke, didn't you say you wanted to get stronger? Let's train!"

"Now?" Xia Ke asked reluctantly. When she was with Su Li, she tended to be a bit lazy and didn't want to do anything!

"Of course. Only with perseverance can you improve, don't you think?"

"En, I'll train all afternoon!"

Xia Ke finally agreed. In fact, she also felt that they couldn't just play around all the time when they were together, but she found it hard to suppress her feelings.

Now that Su Li had brought it up, Xia Ke's desire to become stronger surged again!

Su Li and Xia Ke sat facing each other, then each sat down cross-legged.

After Su Li smiled at Xia Ke, he closed his eyes.

As for Xia Ke, she observed him for a while before realizing that Su Li had truly become immersed.

"Hmph, what a bad guy!"

She huffed, and Xia Ke also closed her eyes.

Virtual Universe, Tianling Star.

Su Li's figure gradually solidified, appearing in a small alley.

Glancing at the bright sun in the sky, Su Li curved his lips into a smile. "What a beautiful day, perfect for committing crimes!"

In fact, although Su Li had been busy with romance with Xia Ke these past two days, he hadn't forgotten that today was the opening day of the "Century Museum" on Tianling Star.

And in the Century Museum, there was something he wanted!

Ten minutes later, Century Museum.

"Sir, would you like to buy a ticket? Today is our opening day, and it's only twenty Meter Yuan for adults!" the ticket seller said to Su Li with a professional smile.

"OK, I'll take one!"

Su Li took out two banknotes from his pocket and handed them to her. A moment later, he received a ticket.

"Enjoy your holiday!"

"Thank you!"

After getting his ticket, Su Li smoothly made his way into the Century Museum.

After asking a few staff members, Su Li quickly found what he was looking for—the dark gold pillar that the Century Museum had named the "Pillar of Eastern Totem."

Not many people were interested in this thing, so when Su Li arrived, there was only a lone female guide.

Of course, she wasn't pretty or young; otherwise, even if the pillar itself wasn't attractive, she should have drawn some people in!

Seeing Su Li approach, the guide's face immediately broke into a smile. Su Li's yellow skin convinced her that he had come specifically to observe the totem pillar.

"Sir, allow me to introduce it to you! Before you stands the Pillar of Eastern Totem, a burial artifact from an emperor of the ancient East. The material it's cast from is suspected to be an unknown meteorite; it constantly emits a steady warmth and is impervious to water and fire. Legend has it that staying beneath this totem pillar for extended periods can make one younger..."

The female guide spoke enthusiastically, completely unaware of the strange look Su Li had as he gazed at the "totem pillar."

In reality, Su Li wasn't listening to the guide at all. For one thing, it was all authentic American English, which he didn't quite understand. For another, compared to a woman who was neither pretty nor young, the totem pillar held more appeal for him!

A moment later—

"Is this thing for sale?" Su Li suddenly asked.

"Huh?"

The female guide stopped, somewhat astonished.

"I asked, is this thing for sale?" Su Li asked again.

"I'm sorry, sir, everything here is not for sale!" Although she doubted Su Li's intelligence, the guide still answered patiently.

After all, it was the museum's opening day, and it wasn't the time to cause any trouble!

"Oh, what a shame!" Su Li sighed, and a semi-transparent long sword quietly appeared in his hand.

"Sir, you can absolutely come here often...?"

The female guide's voice abruptly cut off as she noticed the long sword in Su Li's hand.

While the sword was beautiful, the cold glint of its blade told her it wasn't a decorative piece.

Moreover, if this person was taking out something like this in a museum, he probably wasn't here just for sightseeing, was he?

Ignoring the guide's astonishment, Su Li abruptly raised his hand and slashed forward.

Ching!

A flash of light streaked across, and all the chains blocking visitors from getting closer snapped in two.

Su Li stepped over the chains and quickly reached the pillar.

"Up!"

Su Li wrapped his hands around the pillar and, with a slight exertion of force, pulled it out of its fixed mount.

"Oh! God!" the female guide exclaimed.

"Ma'am, you should step aside, or I can't guarantee your safety!" Su Li said calmly, then walked out, carrying the dark gold pillar.

Wuwuwu—

It was at this moment that a rapid and piercing alarm suddenly blared.

The female guide: "..."

Without a word, the guide quickly fled the scene, her feet practically flying.

She had a premonition that something big was about to happen!
