The Night Watchmen's special healing medicine is truly miraculous.
In just three days, Lu Yibai's wounds had basically healed.
According to Lin Xiaoqi, this medicine was very precious even among the Night Watchmen, and the more it was used, the less there was. Fortunately, he was strong and enjoyed the treatment of the powerful, so he had a larger stock.
After his injuries recovered, Boss Lu's appetite was great. He said to Lin Xiaoqi and Ye Yiyi, "Let's go out to eat, the usual place, my treat!"
It was almost seven in the evening now, and the bar officially opened at eight-thirty. The sky was dark, and Ye Yiyi could go out.
*Hmph, let these two girls see my boss's ***!
"Oh, that's too kind of you, Boss!" Lin Xiaoqi said, feigning politeness as usual.
Normally, she would put on her shoes quickly while being polite and then urge them, "Let's go, let's go!"
But today, she surprisingly said, "Boss, let's split the bill this time!"
Lu Yibai was shocked, feeling like this wasn't the Xiaoqi he knew.
After dinner, when it was time to pay, Lu Yibai paid half the meal cost, while Lin Xiaoqi pulled out a 50% off coupon.
Lu Yibai: "???"
This is what you call splitting the bill?
He had only seen such a "smooth operation" online and always treated it as a joke. He never expected Lin Xiaoqi to be so good at applying what she learned.
Society, society.
After dinner, Lin Xiaoqi dragged Ye Yiyi to queue up and buy several cups of "Yidian Dian Milk Tea."
"Boss, do you want one?" Lin Xiaoqi asked.
Lu Yibai shook his head and then paid for them.
He had already started drinking goji berry water.
He was in his twenties, no longer young, no longer a flower of the motherland, and could start taking care of himself.
The country had already said that the post-90s generation were middle-aged.
Life wasn't just the goji berries in front of you, but also thermoses and Head & Shoulders shampoo.
Lin Xiaoqi and Ye Yiyi both liked drinking milk tea. Anyway, they wouldn't gain weight from drinking it.
Even if their weight increased, it would just mean the parts that should grow bigger had indeed grown bigger.
Amazing!
During these peaceful times, Lu Yibai, as a laid-back youth, felt a sense of inner peace.
The bar had a stable income every day, and then he could raise two cute girls like pets. At this point, he truly felt desireless.
After returning to the bar, Ye Yiyi went to the first floor to clean up. Guests would be arriving soon. Lu Yibai and Lin Xiaoqi returned to the second floor, as Ye Yiyi wouldn't allow them to help anyway.
Lin Xiaoqi sat cross-legged on the sofa, took a sip of the freshly bought "Oolong Macchiato," and narrowed her eyes slightly, a look of satisfaction on her face.
Life was truly wonderful now, so much better than before.
"Xiaoqi, didn't you report the Rat Demon incident? Have you received any reply?" Lu Yibai asked.
Lin Xiaoqi shook her head and said, "Not yet."
As she spoke, she put down her milk tea, picked up her phone, and said, "Boss, shall I ask in the chat group for other Night Watchmen to see?"
"Okay." Lu Yibai said, standing beside her and looking at her phone.
Lin Xiaoqi opened WeChat and found a group chat named: Jiangzhehu Night Watchmen Netizens Group.
The group name felt like a blast from the past.
She always felt like as soon as she joined, someone would ask her, "Are you a GG or a MM?"
Lin Xiaoqi had previously muted the group chat. Now, upon opening it, she saw many people chatting enthusiastically.
The group had quite a few members, 76 people.
This didn't represent the total number of Night Watchmen in the Jiangzhehu area, but simply the number of people in this particular group.
When Lu Yibai first came into contact with the Night Watchmen, he thought the organization was very high-class. Now, after interacting with them for a while, he understood that apart from being a bit stronger, they were no different from ordinary people.
This could be seen from the conversations in the group.
There were flirtatious messages, invitations to meet up, indecent pictures being posted, requests for car license plate numbers, and discussions about cosmetics...
It was strange; he didn't know how they managed to chat about so many different things in the same group.
It seemed there were more male Night Watchmen in the group. This kind of group was terrifying; it could easily lead down a path of no return.
As the saying goes, a three-to-one male-to-female ratio means one couple and one gay couple.
Looking at the lively chat group, Lin Xiaoqi sent an emoji: "/smile."
As soon as her smile emoji was sent, the entire group fell silent.
For a full seven or eight seconds, no one sent any messages.
"Oh, Xiaoqi, you're not very popular, are you? You make the group go quiet whenever you speak," Lu Yibai said sympathetically.
To his surprise, it wasn't long before the entire group started spamming the chat.
"Hello, Sister Xiaoqi!"
"Hello, Sister Xiaoqi!"
"Hello, Sister Xiaoqi!"
Lu Yibai's mouth twitched: "..."
Lin Xiaoqi currently gave him the impression of "The whole group is subservient, I alone am the attacker!"
Her aura was astonishing!
Were these people really so sycophantic? Where was the noble and high-class Night Watchmen they were supposed to be?
Looking at Lin Xiaoqi, who was squinting her eyes and happily sipping her milk tea, she now looked like a kitten being petted on the head by its owner, enjoying it with closed eyes.
Lu Yibai couldn't quite understand, why should he be afraid of a girl who found happiness in a cup of milk tea?
He actually didn't know that there was a type of person in this world whose style of conduct was:
"Please understand, the reason I'm difficult to get along with is because I have no interest in knowing you. Otherwise, I'm not only easy to get along with, but I'm also damn cute!"
Boss Lu always took her out to eat and drink, so she got along very well with Boss Lu.
Boss Lu is a good person!
Lin Xiaoqi brought her knees together, resting the bottom of her milk tea on her knees, and leaned her chin on the top of the milk tea, holding it in place. She then happily sipped it, taking small sips of milk tea while typing: "Have you guys dealt with any demons carrying this thing recently?"
As she spoke, she sent a photo of the Life Token carried by the Rat Demon.
After a while, three Night Watchmen indicated they had encountered one and had already reported it.
The numbers on the Life Tokens all started with C, and the subsequent numbers were all after 500.
It wasn't an isolated incident!
The two exchanged glances, both realizing that the matter was likely not that simple, otherwise, their superiors wouldn't have been so slow to respond.
It was very likely that their superiors had already launched an investigation, but it simply wasn't under their jurisdiction.
The division of labor within the Night Watchmen organization was actually quite clear, with specialized investigation teams responsible for such matters.
Life went on as usual; they just needed to mind their own business.
The immediate priority was to improve their own strength.
Boss Lu was still a bit too weak.
Recently, the small light points within him had been steadily increasing, but unfortunately, he didn't know the cultivation progress of other Night Watchmen, nor did he have any reference points.
As usual, he began to cultivate. Once he entered a state of meditation, pain swept through his entire body.
After a while, Lu Yibai's body suddenly trembled.
What the hell, why was it suddenly so painful!
For a moment, he couldn't find a suitable adjective. It was almost like... double menstrual pain?
Was this... a breakthrough?
