A moment later, Secretary Wang came downstairs carrying two thick books.

"Here, these are our textbooks. Take them home and finish reading them. I'll be testing you in a couple of days!"

"And then?" Su Li asked.

"What do you mean, 'and then'?" Secretary Wang asked in surprise. "Have you even finished reading this book? And you're already asking me what comes next?"

Su Li: "..."

What professional training. It really was "professional" enough!

Ten minutes later, Su Li and Xia Ke each carried a printed copy of the thick book as they walked out of the Detective Bureau.

"It's getting late today. I'll take you home!" Su Li said to Xia Ke.

"Huh? We're going back already? It's only a little past eight-thirty..." Xia Ke said reluctantly.

"Mm, all right. Then let's stay outside tonight!" Su Li said smoothly.

Xia Ke: "..."

In the end, Xia Ke still refused Su Li's suggestion that they stay out for the night and obediently let him take her home.

Half an hour later—

Outside Xia Ke's residential compound, Xia Ke gently touched her lips and gazed somewhat dreamily at Su Li as he walked farther and farther away.

"See you in class tomorrow!"

Xia Ke sent Su Li a message on her phone.

"OK!"

Su Li quickly replied. Although it was only a simple "OK," Xia Ke was still delighted as she stared at it, hugged her phone, and went home!

Elsewhere.

Su Li put down his phone and shook his head helplessly.

His girlfriend was far too clingy... He finally understood why Zheng Hongyu had never returned to the dormitory all day in the past!

Thinking this, Su Li walked toward the dormitory. Without Xia Ke beside him, he walked several times faster, and so he reached the vicinity of Donghai University in less than ten minutes.

Just then—

"Ah!!"

Su Li suddenly heard a faint cry.

The sound was extremely soft. If Su Li's hearing had not become extraordinary, he would never have been able to catch it amid the bustling surroundings.

It sounded like someone was committing a crime—against a girl, no less. Could this be the legendary rapist?

That thought flashed through Su Li's mind instinctively.

The next moment, Su Li followed the sound to its source, turned around, and headed in another direction.

Whether out of concern for basic human decency or simple curiosity, Su Li decided to take a look.

A moment later, Su Li silently arrived at a dimly lit alley.

Under the cover of night, Su Li vaguely saw a fat figure inside.

No, perhaps it was two people tangled together.

Had the rapist already started?

Thinking of that possibility, Su Li no longer hesitated and walked straight over.

Su Li made no sound as he walked. He went directly behind the "fat" figure, patted him on the shoulder, and asked,

"Hey, buddy, what are you doing?"

The figure's body trembled. Then he slowly turned his head, revealing a face terrifying enough to scare someone to death.

His face was deathly pale, without the slightest hint of blood, and a pair of sharp fangs protruded from his mouth. He looked just like a vampire.

After seeing Su Li's face clearly, the figure showed no courtesy at all. He took a step forward and thrust his fangs straight toward Su Li's neck.

Clearly, he had mistaken Su Li for an ordinary passerby who had accidentally discovered something strange here.

"Fuck, what the hell is this?" Su Li felt a little disgusted and instinctively slapped him.

Bang!

The figure was sent flying without the slightest ability to resist, then slammed heavily into a nearby wall. In an instant, he stopped moving.

Su Li: "..."

Staring at the motionless figure lying on the ground, Su Li fell silent.

Fuck, this isn't Primal Star. I've gotten so used to swinging my hand like that!

"Did I just kill someone in the real world? I wanted to be a law-abiding citizen!" Su Li glanced at his right hand and felt speechless.

"But this guy seemed to be committing a crime. What I did shouldn't count as breaking the law, right?" Thinking this, Su Li turned around and looked toward the place where the figure had been. Sure enough, there was another unconscious girl there.

However, judging from the girl's steady breathing, she was not seriously hurt. She had probably fainted from fright!

"This is..."

Su Li felt that the unconscious girl looked somewhat familiar. He thought carefully for a moment, then suddenly slapped his palm. "This is Wang Mingming!"

An hour later, a black Audi stopped outside the alley. Two graceful figures emerged from the Audi one after the other.

"Director Ye, Secretary Wang, over here!" Inside the alley, Su Li, looking "a complete mess," waved at the two of them.

"Su Li, where are the people you mentioned?"

After walking over, Secretary Wang asked directly.

"There!" Su Li pointed toward the figure by the wall.

Ye Mohan and Secretary Wang turned to look. Then both of them froze.

It was a humanoid object with its entire body impaled by translucent longswords. One could barely tell that it had once been a person.

"Secretary Wang, this guy is a Superhuman. He tried to rape a girl. If I hadn't happened to encounter him, he would have succeeded!" Su Li said innocently.

"He even tried to kill me to silence me. If I hadn't fought back fiercely, he would have succeeded at that too!"

"But fortunately, I was slightly stronger than him and took him down!"

"By the way, I'm a member of the Detective Bureau now, so this should count as accidentally killing him while carrying out my duty, right? It's not against the law, and I won't go to prison, right?"

"Also, I've discovered that my superpower is really strong. Although I ambushed him, that guy seemed to be a higher level than me..."

"..."

Secretary Wang listened to Su Li for a couple of sentences at first, but a moment later, her face was full of impatience. She drove Su Li aside, because he had become far too talkative.

Secretary Wang considered herself quite experienced. She had seen people vomit violently after killing someone for the first time, and she had seen people tremble all over—or even become excited. But someone like Su Li, who turned into a chatterbox... ummmmmmm.

Ye Mohan, on the other hand, kept listening to Su Li's rambling with an interested look on her face.

Her expression remained mostly unchanged, though, and no one knew what she was thinking.

However, neither Secretary Wang nor Ye Mohan affected Su Li's "performance." He continued talking without pause...

P.S. This is a new book, still a little sapling. Please show it some support!
