That's right, to reach this level in just one month, he's definitely a genius!

Little

Oh, right. I also added Angelica root to my thermos today.

People born in the 90s can start taking care of their health now, that's how you live to be a hundred.

After slowly walking back to the bar, Ye Yiyi, the little maid, busied herself with cleaning.

Once she was done, she stood before the bar counter, meticulously polishing the glasses.

The little loli, meanwhile, dragged a large suitcase as she, Lu Yibai, and Lin Xiaoqi headed upstairs.

"Clack, clack."

Because of her short legs, her suitcase kept hitting the stairs as she climbed.

"Troublesome!"

With that, she raised her hand, and the large suitcase was effortlessly hoisted onto her shoulder.

A small frame, but great strength.

After sitting down next to the sofa, she opened the suitcase. She pulled out a large pile of documents and said, "Sign here!"

Lu Yibai's mouth twitched as he looked at the documents piled up like a small hill.

What kind of "Oddity" was this "Night Watchmen Code"? It was thicker than a dictionary!

This "Night Watchmen Oath" actually required a handwritten copy. What was so good about copying this thing?

Seeing Lu Yibai flipping through the documents, the little loli waved her hand and said, "No need to read them. They're just rules set by some old fossils, no need to take them too seriously. Formalities, hehe."

After her sarcastic remark, she handed the pen to Lu Yibai and said, "Just sign where you need to sign."

Lu Yibai glanced at Lin Xiaoqi, feeling uneasy.

Who knew if some documents that shouldn't be signed were mixed in.

This kind of tactic, though old, was indeed very effective.

Lin Xiaoqi nodded at Lu Yibai, signaling that there were no problems. Only then did Lu Yibai sign the documents.

After putting the large stack of documents back into the suitcase and locking it, the little loli patted her small hands, which were only slightly larger than a cat's paw, and said, "OK!"

Lu Yibai nodded and returned the pen to her.

"Hey! I'm leaving!" the little loli Sakura Ning shouted to Lin Xiaoqi.

Lin Xiaoqi, eating Oreo cookies, replied without turning her head, "Don't let the door hit you on the way out."

The little loli left just like that, arriving in a hurry and leaving in a hurry.

It seemed she was very busy.

But it made sense. The Jiangsu, Zhejiang, and Shanghai region was under her jurisdiction, so she couldn't possibly not be busy.

Lu Yibai's previous identity as Wucheng Steward was not officially recognized. Now, he was formally appointed.

Huh, I forgot to ask about the benefits!

Never mind, I have to maintain the high-class, high-status demeanor of a second-generation heir.

At one o'clock in the morning, Lu Yibai had just finished practicing the Basic Umbrella Technique. He felt like his Kirin Arm was almost trained.

Just then, his phone rang.

He glanced at the contact and saw it was Li Youde, the head of the Wucheng Night Watchmen Assistance Department.

"Hello, Mr. Lu!" Li Youde's tone sounded somewhat anxious.

"Mhm, go ahead," Lu Yibai said, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

"Mr. Lu, just a few hours ago, there was a suspected demonic case," Li Youde said.

He was a police academy graduate and was used to using the term "case."

"Where?" Lu Yibai asked.

"Former Cheng Second District."

The Former Cheng Second District was some distance from the Answer Bar. Even with Lin Xiaoqi's strength, she couldn't possibly monitor every corner of Wucheng in real-time, let alone Lu Yibai.

"What exactly happened?" Lu Yibai asked.

"A child went missing."

Lu Yibai's brow furrowed, and a sense of foreboding arose in his heart.

As expected, Li Youde continued, "It's... it's the same child you rescued from the Rat Demon last time!"
