Chen Xuan gave it some thought and realized she was right. Since Lu Lixin and Zhang Zhi had surfaced among this group one after another, who knew how many awakened people were hidden in their hideout?
Leaving it entirely to the police did carry considerable risk.
"So we can only investigate it ourselves?"
"What, do you think I have a dog's nose?" Lin Qing shot him an annoyed glare. "Just because I can smell something underground doesn't mean I can smell it aboveground. If a daily chemical factory gave off strange odors every day, the environmental authorities would have fined it into the ground long ago. I don't have smell-enhancing prosthetics installed. My sense of smell is about the same as yours."
"Why not install them?" Chen Xuan asked curiously.
Her reason was rather straightforward. "You wouldn't want to smell everyone else's farts all day either, would you?"
That made a lot of sense.
Chen Xuan spread his hands. "Then this is going to be difficult. We can't exactly get a dog to smell it in a dream, then have it find the place in reality, can we?"
That was asking far too much of a dog's intelligence.
And did dogs even dream?
"Hmm... let me think." Lin Qing fell into thought as well.
"If all else fails, I'll ask a witch for an ability." Chen Xuan scratched his head. "The Witches' Assembly promised I could make use of any abilities I wanted. They have over a hundred members now, so there should be one or two useful abilities among them."
"I've got it!" Lin Qing suddenly clapped her hands.
"You have someone in mind?"
"Not a person. A dragon."
"A dragon?" Chen Xuan froze. The only dragon he could think of was Azure Dragon Xuan, the one Liu Shuyue
