How come the celestial technique I stole is so powerful?!

Then, taking the flying car back to the Southern Group, the moment Zhao Jilei stepped onto the car, his gaze was cast towards the rocks by the sea, where his son Zhao Zhen was, along with his son's comrade, Lin Xiaosu.

For the first time in his life, Lin Xiaosu, separated by a hundred meters, saw this legendary private entrepreneur for the first time.

The two did not meet directly, but their eyes met for the first time across a hundred meters.

Zhao Jilei gave him a gentle smile and closed the car door.

The flying car sped away into the sky.

Zhao Zhen shifted his gaze from the flying car to Lin Xiaosu: "Bro, this trip is done. It was as perfect as a textbook example, but there's one thing I still don't understand."

"What is it?"

"In the large pit made by the Wing Blade, we had a conversation according to your script that blatantly defied convention, revealing the absolute secret that an 'Dark Gate' is hidden in the central control of the Wing Blade. I don't quite understand whether this absolute secret is real or fake," Zhao Zhen said.

"We know that this villa is monitored everywhere. This script was designed solely to convey this conclusion to the opposing high-ups, yet you're unsure if this secret is real or fake?" Lin Xiaosu cast a sidelong glance at him.

"From basic espionage knowledge, every word you said couldn't possibly be true, yet… this… this seems to be the only possibility I can imagine," Zhao Zhen lightly scratched his head.

Common sense analysis suggests that the so-called Dark Gate in the Wing Blade's control hub is 100% false. Otherwise, would we really need to conduct an analysis in their villa on a full stomach?

Yet, aside from this possibility, Zhao Zhen couldn't conceive of a second possibility.

You could even say, there is no second possibility at all!

This is the part he couldn't understand no matter how hard he tried.

Lin Xiaosu gave a faint smile, "The world is a strange place, not everything can be explained with modern logic."

Zhao Zhen said, "Alright, this secret is no small matter. I won't pry into it. Let me directly ask the most crucial question… what do you hope to achieve through this conversation?"

"I want the Nine Headed Snake Headquarters to conduct a massive investigation of their advanced scientific team!"

Zhao Zhen nodded, "And then?"

"As long as there's an investigation, there will inevitably be traces. As long as there are traces, they will stumble onto my path!" Lin Xiaosu said. "Amidst the vast sea of people, give me a single thread, and I can topple their world!"

Zhao Zhen's gaze slowly rose.

The light in his eyes was boundless.

In the vast sea of people, give him a single thread, and he can topple their world!

What kind of bold words are these?

What kind of confidence is this?

Yet, regardless of the confidence, Zhao Zhen also believed it.

Because the detective path, has always been his path.

He was invincible even on paths that didn't belong to him, let alone his own path?

And more crucially, the entry point he chose was an open tactic!

Would the people of the Nine Headed Snake suspect that this deliberately conveyed message is false?

Of course they would!

But what difference does it make?

They would still investigate!

Why?

Because from Zhao Zhen's perspective, this is the only explanation for why the Wing Blade keeps being captured again.

Zhao Zhen thinks this way, and so will the people of Nine Headed Snake. No one can come up with a second reason, so what reason do they have not to believe in the "Dark Gate" theory he proposes?

Thus, investigation is necessary!

Whether you suspect it or not, you have to investigate!

Lin Xiaosu wants exactly that—an "investigation"!

As long as you begin the investigation, he will have the chance to grab hold of a thread among them, and follow the clues to the top-level scientific team of the Nine Headed Snake.

A scientific team is any organization's most critical asset, especially for an organization like the Nine Headed Snake.

This is a direct strike at its lifeline.

"Bro, I truly admire you! I thought you were just cooperating with me for a cross-border rescue mission, but who would have thought that your target is the Wing Blade. I originally thought that recapturing the Wing Blade would be a great success, but who knew you also had your sights set on Luoba State!" Zhao Zhen said, "Now that the haze is temporarily lifted, you and I should fulfill our pre-departure wish and live it up in Yangcheng!"

"Forget about it! Go live it up with your pile of mistresses! I'm going home!" Lin Xiaosu said.

"If you live it up a bit, you'll have a pile of mistresses too!"

My God, I've been trying my best to restrain myself. If I shake that box with a bunch of wives inside, what would happen?

Lin Xiaosu turned around and left.

His figure vanished, and Zhao Zhen raised his hand, picking up his phone.

"Dad, send some money to the Fengcheng Detective Agency!"

"How much?"

"Just consider how much this trip is worth?"

Old Zhao pondered for a moment, "Ten million!"

"That's it?!" Zhao Zhen exclaimed, "I thought you would consider one billion or ten billion, and you give me ten million?"

Old Zhao laughed, "The amount of money isn't just about the worth of this trip, it's about what is suitable. Money, you see, is the capital of a poor man's life, but it's also a corrosive to human nature. Giving too much would harm him."

"You're exaggerating, I have a few 'small targets' sitting in my account, have I become corroded?" Zhao Zhen retorted.

"You think you're not corroded? You've been out for just one day, and a mistress pops up holding a child claiming paternity tests, you rascal, you get back here! Write the family admonitions a hundred times!"

"Dad, what do you mean… What's happening? Why did the phone suddenly lose signal? This damn phone…" Zhao Zhen raised his hand, smashed the phone against the rock, watching it shatter.

As night fell, Lin Xiaosu sat on the rock by the sea.

The waves gently rolled, and a black stone seemed to be swept along by the waves, appearing at his feet.

This was none other than the Wing Blade.

Zhao Zhen thought the Wing Blade had returned to Qianlong Headquarters, but actually, it was always with Lin Xiaosu.

Lin Xiaosu didn't lie to Zhao Zhen, he said the Wing Blade's control center had been altered, and indeed it had been changed.

However, the talk of the Dark Gate was nothing but a malicious lie.

The method of alteration was a hundred times more mysterious than Dark Gate's manipulation.

It's a hundred times more hardcore.

Lin Xiaosu faced the Wing Blade attack, struck out with one sword...

This sword was not "Severing Emotion," not "Li Ren Tears," but an array!

At this moment, the Five Elements Sword functioned as the Array Pen, directly stopping the internal array of the Wing Blade!

No need to touch the energy source, directly controlling the array inside.

This was the move that halted the Wing Blade.

Next, was the beginning of the astounding events.

The Space Law was activated, and the custom-made bomb hidden in the Energy Room entered his Inner Space.

The crisis was resolved.

Following that, the array trembled, fully detaching the modern technology embedded in the control core of the Wing Blade.

Smith lost track of the Wing Blade.

Finally, came the most crucial and shocking part...

Lin Xiaosu demonstrated the Puppet Path he'd newly learned from Ding's Villa!

He used True Qi as a pen, with the Five Elements characteristics within him as ink, inscribing the Puppet Talisman.

The Wing Blade was no longer an Ancient Divine Artifact controlled by modern technology, but an Ancient Puppet through and through.

This puppet was under his control.

In the dark night, the puppet broke through the air, carrying Lin Xiaosu over mountains and rivers. It was almost in an instant that the puppet submerged into the deep pool beneath Old Tashan.

Under the starlight, Lin Xiaosu leisurely walked across the plains, onto the road, arriving at the courtyard of the old house.

The gate lightly creaked.

On the second floor, little Ye's eyes suddenly opened. In her eyes, the night seemed to part suddenly, scanning the intruder through the darkness.

Little Ye smiled behind the window.

Dad opened the house door, and also smiled, "How come you're back in the middle of the night?"

"Hmm, just finished a case, came back along the way."

"Have you eaten?" Mom came out of the room, draping a coat.

"Not yet, Mom, could you make me a bowl of noodles."

Mom happily started to busy herself.

If in the past, deep in the night, as long as he wasn't too hungry, Lin Xiaosu would be willing to endure, to save his mother from trouble.

However, as his abilities increased, as his actions became more sophisticated, he keenly noticed that his parents' attitude towards him started to change.

They always felt their son was too skillful, beyond teaching, beyond helping, gradually there was a sense of loss.

Therefore, Lin Xiaosu was very willing to create an opportunity for his mother, like when he was a child, to let her feel more involved.

Sure enough, when the bowl of noodles was handed to him, his mother smiled happily.

After dinner, he returned to the second floor.

Little Ye was lying on the bed.

A towel, always ready to be used as a cushion for sitting, floated beside the bed.

Lin Xiaosu held an Array Plate, carefully examining it.

There were many Array Plates in his Secret Realm Space, dozens of them, all left behind by Bridge Realm Array Masters.

This one in his hand belonged to Ear Wutian of the Long Ear Clan.

What was he doing with the Array Plate?

He wanted to accomplish a very wild idea...

What kind of idea?

To control the puppet with the Array Plate.

This idea, called wild, because even an Ancient Puppet Master probably couldn't imagine.

How are puppets generally used?

By implanting a will into the puppet to let it act according to that will.

This is already quite fantastic.

But Lin Xiaosu wasn't satisfied with this kind of fantasy.

If he just wanted this puppet to act as a Divine Guard for the courtyard, implanting a will would be enough: you tightly watch this small courtyard, if anyone enters that little Ye can't handle, you come out and beat them hard...

However, Lin Xiaosu wanted more than just this.

With the external situation changing, he needed a way to temporarily alter the puppet's settings from a thousand miles away.

This is beyond what ancient puppets could achieve!

In other words, Lin Xiaosu wanted to do something unprecedented!

How to do it?

Puppetry Technique, mixed with array.

Arrays can resonate. It is said that super long-distance Transmission Arrays can easily transport people across two worlds. That Transmission Array actually requires some resonance between two Array Platforms.

Array Platforms that span two worlds can resonate.

Leaving one array inside the puppet, carrying another array plate, remotely controlling the puppet, is theoretically possible.

However, to turn theory into reality, it's easier said than done.

Lin Xiaosu activated Human Tao Orchid Heart, fully organizing the "Circulation Array" left by the Ancient Array Sect. The first night was still clouded in mist.

He was not anxious.

The next day, he leisurely went out and returned to the Detective Agency.

At the Detective Agency, Zhou Xi went out to handle a case, leaving only Miao Ruolan.

As soon as Miao Ruolan saw him, her face turned red instantly, she bounced up.

Lin Xiaosu gathered his hands and embraced her; she glanced outside seeing no one around, tiptoed, and offered her lips for a warm kiss. However, her hands pulled him to the computer: "Come quickly, take a look at this, what's going on?"
