Having obtained the bomb, Lu Li rushed back; there was still much to do.
It was evening when I entered the house and saw Xiao Cha stretching her legs in the yard.
The two quickly moved closer together, Lu Li spoke first:
"I've got a bomb. Even if Fan Shouyi a blood transfusion, he'll still die."
As he spoke, he took out Anti-tank mine:
"It's remote-controlled; the detonation can be monitored using drones."
Xiao Cha touched it curiously and said:
"You can leave the detonation to me. I'll be at the meeting tomorrow too."
"That's great! Watching it in person will definitely be more accurate than using a drone."
Lu Li was initially delighted, but then he realized that even though it was a directional mine, it couldn't be too close.
He quickly reminded him, "You need to make sure you're at least 5 meters away from Fan Shouyi."
"It's probably about twenty or thirty meters away."
Xiao Cha took out the drone's remote control and showed Lu Li the photos it had taken:
"Four leaders sat on the stage, and Uncle Chen and I stood below."
At first glance, it was a huge conference room, similar to an auditorium, which could easily accommodate four or five hundred people.
There were only four armchairs on the stage, but no tables or chairs below, so the subordinates attending the meeting had to stand.
This has always been the case in this other world, with clear levels, but Lu Li was relieved:
"We're this far away, so you won't get hurt, but we still need to be careful... By the way, which chair is Fan Shouyi sitting in?"
"The first card on the left."
Xiao Cha pointed to the four chairs that were vaguely visible in the photo and said:
"Fan Shouyi Cultivator, of high status, and sits on the left;"
Next are Jiang Haiyan and Xia Weiyin, representing the Governor and the National Martial Arts Association, seated in the center.
"Prefect Zhang is the host; he respectfully accompanies you from the right."
Left is on top; this arrangement is indeed the best solution to take all parties into account.
Lu Li nodded and said, "Understood. Now all that's left is to put the lightning on."
Xiao Cha hesitated for a moment. "Won't it hurt Sister Xia? She's a really nice person..."
"Xia Weiyin?" Lu Li said with certainty:
"She's more than 5 meters away, and there are two people blocking her way. She's at the Blood Exchange realm, so she probably wouldn't even break her skin."
Xiao Cha breathed a sigh of relief and said excitedly, "Let's set off the bombs when it gets dark!"
~~~~~~~~~~~
After a peaceful dinner, the two picked up a suitcase and headed out.
Inside were Anti-tank mine, ready to be deployed and tightly wrapped in lead sheeting.
As the year draws to a close, there are very few pedestrians on the streets.
A young couple strolled hand in hand through the streets of a major northern city.
The two of them strolled to the vicinity of the Prefectural Office and disappeared into a small alley.
At this moment, Lu Li took the landmine out of the suitcase and changed into a black night suit.
He then put on a hood over his face, preparing to sneak into the Chamber of Deliberation.
Xiao Cha was responsible for providing support outside.
She launched a drone to monitor the patrolling Imperial Guard.
After about 10 minutes, the girl suddenly said, "Now!"
Reminded, Lu Li's eyes narrowed, and he soared into the sky.
He used his mind to lift himself 70 meters high and flew straight to the Chamber of Deliberation, following the route the girl had planned in advance.
This building is just a large conference room; there are no important people there, and it doesn't store anything important.
While there was some defense, it was certainly not very tight either.
Lu Li flew in, and with the Heavenly Eye monitoring the ground, he avoided the patrol team without incident and silently glided down to the main entrance of the Chamber of Deliberation.
The door didn't even have a lock, and inside, the floor smelled like it had just been mopped and was dry.
It seems they finished cleaning ahead of time to prepare for tomorrow's meeting.
Without saying a word, Lu Li rushed up to the podium and turned over the first armchair on the left.
He took out super glue from his pocket and smeared it on the lead sheet covering the landmine.
I stuck this "robot vacuum cleaner"-like thing under the seat of the armchair. I pressed it for a minute, and the glue dried.
Lu Li tugged hard, but it wouldn't budge; it was stuck very firmly.
He put the chair back in its original position and activated his Heavenly Eye to look.
The lead sheet shielded the Heavenly Eye's detection, and nothing unusual was detected. As soon as someone sat on it, they would immediately enjoy the treatment of a tank.
Lu Li nodded in satisfaction. "Exploding Chair, complete!"
Everything was ready; all that was left was to wait for Fan Shouyi to sit down.
~~~~~~~~~
Lu Li flew out unharmed and reunited with Xiao Cha.
Instead of going home, the two strolled like a couple out shopping, heading to "Qingyi Street" not far away.
This area was inhabited by officials, so people wearing blue official robes often came and went, hence the name Blue Robe Street.
The two inadvertently passed by a spacious and luxurious mansion.
A drone flew in the sky, its camera focused on the brightly lit buildings, snapping away.
Xiao Cha whispered, "This is Fan Shouyi's residence. The study is on the left side of the main room."
Lu Li nodded. "Okay, I understand. Tomorrow, as soon as the landmines go off, I'll rush in and sweep through."
Unbeknownst to the two, Fan Shouyi was not at home at this time, but rather at the Divine Heart Society.
This refined and proud scholar, who had arrived so quickly, was kneeling on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly.
"This servant has failed in his duty; please, Master, give me another chance!"
The person making Fan Shouyi kowtow was a young man in his early twenties.
He had Money-Rat Tail hairstyle and a vertical eye between his eyebrows.
The man ignored the servant's pleas and stared at a "specimen bottle" filled with liquid, saying in a deep voice:
"There's definitely Dimethyltryptamine in the fetus. Foreigners can extract it, so why can't I? Over a hundred experiments have all failed..."
Inside the glass bottle, a fetal specimen was floating, about six or seven months old, barely human-shaped.
Fan Shouyi hurriedly exclaimed, "Master Ling Gui, you are Divine Ability powerful and wise. Try a few more times, and it will surely work!"
"Sigh." The Golden Aristocrat named Ling Gui sighed and said:
"You say you're such a sensible person, how come you messed things up this time? Izumo is very dissatisfied."
Fan Shouyi kowtowed again and said, "This servant knows his mistake and only begs for a chance to atone for his crime through meritorious service."
"Alright, let's see how you perform next year."
Ling Gui casually toyed with the specimen bottle and said:
"Besides People of Izumo, [Four Spirits], you also need to keep an eye on things. If you mess this up again, I'll extract your soul and pour it into this specimen."
Fan Shouyi hurriedly replied, "Thank you for your great kindness, Master. This servant will do my utmost. If I fail again, you won't even need to lift a finger; this servant will gladly be torn to pieces!"
~~~~~~~~~
Time quickly passed to the second day.
Everyone got up early and had breakfast.
Xiao Cha put on a brand-new uniform, put the remote control in her pocket, and went to a meeting with the worried-looking Mr. Chen Zhizhong.
Lu Li then ordered the two puppets to carry the long-lost "Children's Rifle" and drove to Qingyi Street.
Sitting in the car, he frowned slightly and rubbed his back against the seat.
My body is starting to itch again. It seems that Wan Qing's back massage only has a limited effect and only temporarily suppresses the itch.
But we can't worry about that now; we need to invite Fan Shouyi sit on the Exploding Chair first.
