Chapter 422: Chapter 419: Xiao Tian Off the Beaten Path

Listening to Xiao Tian’s increasingly sleazy laughter, Yu Ningxue couldn’t help but pat him on the shoulder, only for him to brush her hand aside.

”Stop messing around!” Xiao Tian said with a hint of impatience.

Seeing this, Yu Ningxue couldn’t help but realize that this guy was putting on a ghostly act to scare her!

Thinking of this, she suddenly shouted loudly in Xiao Tian’s ear: ”Wake up ah ah ah!”

Xiao Tian immediately jumped up, opened his eyes to see Yu Ningxue with a mischievous grin, and asked, ”What are you doing?”

”What am I doing?” Yu Ningxue, with a look that said ’I’ve seen through you’, said, ”Shouldn’t I be asking you that? Scaring people with your ghostly act! Hmph!”

Yu Ningxue gave a little playful snort, then said, ”But you did a pretty good job acting, people who don’t know might really think you’re possessed, you could consider becoming an actor!”

Xiao Tian explained, ”I was searching for clues, okay?”

”Searching for clues?” Yu Ningxue’s beautiful eyes widened, trying to find a flaw in Xiao Tian’s face, see if he was lying, but after looking for a while, there was no sign of deceit.

Either Xiao Tian was an incredibly skilled actor, or what he said... was true?

But is there really a way to search for clues like that?

Remembering Xiao Tian’s sleazy laughter, Yu Ningxue curiously asked: ”Then tell me, how exactly did you search for clues?”

Xiao Tian waved the single strand of hair in his hand and said: ”This is it!”

”This?” Yu Ningxue looked at the strand of hair, which was almost invisible unless you looked closely, thinking Xiao Tian was still trying to deceive her, angrily said: ”What kind of clue searching is this?”

Seeing that Yu Ningxue was getting a bit angry, Xiao Tian succinctly explained how he had once saved a master who claimed to be a Maoshan Sorcerer, who, in gratitude, taught him a Secret Technique.

Yu Ningxue gasped repeatedly as she listened, never expecting such strange and unusual things to exist in the world!

Thinking about the memory-peeking effect that Xiao Tian mentioned, Yu Ningxue couldn’t help but worry, ”This Secret Technique is so magical, if used lightly, would there be any side effects?”

This question stumped Xiao Tian, he checked and found no harm, then his eyes darted around...

Xiao Tian let out an ’ouch’ and fell to the floor, scaring Yu Ningxue so much that she hurriedly held him, her eyes reddening as if she were about to cry.

”Can you go a little higher?” Xiao Tian weakly said in Yu Ningxue’s arms.

Yu Ningxue was so anxious at this moment, how could she realize Xiao Tian was tricking her?

She quickly complied, asking, ”How is it? Feeling better?”

”Good, good, good!” Xiao Tian said three goods in a row, then added, ”It would be even better if you could go a little higher!”

”Hmm?”

Yu Ningxue instinctively felt something wasn’t right, and looking at Xiao Tian who was pretending to be unable to control himself, and then if she followed his words to go higher...

Yu Ningxue suddenly jumped up in anger, this bastard was addicted to tricking her!

Realizing what was happening, Yu Ningxue immediately stood up, kept a cold face, and ignored Xiao Tian.

Xiao Tian had deliberately shown a flaw, he would never take advantage of Yu Ningxue’s concern for him!

At this moment, seeing that Yu Ningxue uncovered him, he quickly approached trying every way possible to make her happy.

A while later, seeing the finally smiling Yu Ningxue, Xiao Tian secretly sighed in relief, but then heard...

”By the way, what did you see that made you laugh so sleazily in the bathroom just now?”

Instantly, Xiao Tian felt a cold gaze lock onto him, hurriedly saying, ”Nothing, nothing!”

Yu Ningxue persistently asked, ”Did you see a beauty bathing? Speak!”

”With a beautiful master like you by my side, how could I look at others?”

Hearing Xiao Tian’s righteous words, Yu Ningxue couldn’t help but snicker and said, ”That’s more like it!”

”Did you find any valuable clues?” Yu Ningxue asked.

”Uh...” Xiao Tian said somewhat awkwardly, ”I was just interrupted by you, so I didn’t see the end!”

In fact, it wasn’t that Xiao Tian’s character was really that low, those images couldn’t be skipped, so he had no choice but to view them.

Yu Ningxue was slightly disappointed but also marveled at Xiao Tian’s skill, asking, ”If you don’t have hair, can you still use this Secret Technique?”

Xiao Tian thought for a moment and said, ”It’s not impossible, for instance, close items like underwear are still usable, but the effect might not be as good!”

Upon hearing Xiao Tian’s answer, recalling how Xiao Tian paid attention to a particular little vest when searching the room, Yu Ningxue burst out, ”Xiao Tian, I’m going to kill you ah ah ah...”

With a clear conscience, back then Xiao Tian really didn’t have such thoughts, he just didn’t want to miss any detail.

But, combined with his previous answer, it did seem somewhat perverted.

Xiao Tian calmed Yu Ningxue down, but no matter how he tried again, he couldn’t succeed with the Secret Technique, so he had to retreat gloomily.

”Wait!” Xiao Tian suddenly shouted, startling Yu Ningxue.

”I think I remembered something!”

Xiao Tian suddenly recalled a detail he saw through the Secret Technique earlier, no! It seemed like an image actively emerged.

As the images like slides appeared before him, Xiao Tian was drenched in sweat, silently cursing the massive mental drain and slow feedback of this Secret Technique.

It seemed like there really wasn’t a free lunch in the world, using it for just two minutes left him in this state.

Xiao Tian secretly thanked Yu Ningxue for interrupting him, otherwise, it wouldn’t have ended so lightly!

As the images passed one by one, Xiao Tian felt dizzy, his mind gradually becoming heavy.

Finally, before he blacked out, he saw an all-too-familiar face—Peng Qi!

...

Xiao Tian’s fainting worried Yu Ningxue for quite a while; just as he woke up, he revealed a bombshell of information.

”So, you’re saying Peng Qi used to live there?” Yu Ningxue calmly analyzed, ”In that case, those two Black-clothed People and the forces behind them were all after Peng Qi?!”

Xiao Tian nodded, agreeing with Yu Ningxue’s assessment, ”It seems likely at the moment!”

”Do you have any evidence to prove it?” Yu Ningxue questioned, ”This is just our speculation!”

”Does intuition count?”

Xiao Tian’s words drew a roll of the eyes from Yu Ningxue.

After a moment of silence, Xiao Tian suddenly slapped his thigh and said, ”I found it!”

”Found what?”

Xiao Tian didn’t directly answer Yu Ningxue’s question; instead, he went to a floor plan of the crime scene and outlined a victim’s residential area.

Then, pointing to the center of the area, Yu Ningxue’s eyes lit up: ”Right! These victims all started around the area where Peng Qi lived.”

Yu Ningxue threw her arms around Xiao Tian’s neck, gave him a peck on the cheek with her own special stamp, and praised, ”Not bad, not bad! You’ve improved!”

Looking at Yu Ningxue hanging on him and her smug little expression, Xiao Tian helplessly said, ”You should see who my master is!”

Yu Ningxue seemed to have been waiting for this line for a long time, joyfully accepting Xiao Tian’s flattery, saying, ”That’s for sure!”
