Chapter 211: Chapter 210 Noise_1
âI didnât expect you to arrive so quickly.â
After leading Fu Qian into the room, Wen Li waved away everyone else.
And after being reminded multiple times, this person finally corrected their way of speaking.
âActually, itâs not a matter of great urgency, I just didnât know when youâd be around, so I left a letter there.â
Though saying so, Wen Li still seemed visibly delighted.
âYou havenât been busy lately?â
âActually, I have been quite busy.â
Fu Qian tasted the tea personally brewed by Wen Li.
In just a few days, Wen Liâs life skills had greatly improved, naturally, their battle skills had as well.

One could feel that Wen Liâs aura was now more serene and steady than before, clearly showing advancement.
After making it past the Sixth Phase, Wen Liâs promotion did not seem to meet any obstacles.
Thinking about it, when it comes to grinding proficiency, Wen Liâs ability was indeed too convenient.
âNo wonder, I feel that your emotions⊠are somewhat chaotic?â
Wen Li looked at Fu Qian pensively.
Can dissociation ever be not chaotic?
Fu Qian thought to himself, having worn that headband for quite a while.
However, from one aspect it was evident, Wen Liâs sensitivity to ability was indeed exceptional, to be able to detect the changes in his emotions.
âIs that so?â
âYes.â
Wen Li tilted their head, considering their words carefully.
âIt feels very complex, as though many peoplesâ emotions are intertwined, are you sure youâre alright?â
âOf course, we have been much better.â
Fu Qian answered confidently.
âŠ
âBut your ability has indeed improved a lot.â
Looking at the perplexed Wen Li, Fu Qian deliberately changed the subject.
âReally?â
Wen Liâs eyebrows instantly lit up with joy, forgetting their previous suspicions.
âI was actually worried that something might be wrong with my ability just now.â
âSpeaking of which, the matter mentioned in the letter is also related to this.â
At this point, Wen Li finally moved on to the main issue.
âWhat specifically is the matter?â
âIâve encountered someone recently who gives off a very strange feeling.â
âStrange in what way?â
âToo normal!â
Wen Li explained with a frown on their forehead.
âItâs exactly the opposite of your state just now, his emotions are so normal that it feels unreal.â
âBased on my experience, everyoneâs emotions have an unstable aspect, which I call the noise in the emotions.â
âAnd since ascending to the Sixth Phase, my perception in this aspect has also become much sharper.â
âBut this person is odd, there isnât any noise in his emotions, not even a bit!â
Wen Li recounted their feelings at the time.
âYet, he is not one of those conscienceless puppets; his demeanor and behavior are very normal, and all his emotions are genuineâŠâ
Hmm.
After listening to Wen Liâs description, Fu Qian nodded in acknowledgment.
Emotions so flawlessly false are indeed of interest.
âWhere did you encounter this person?â
âAt a small gathering, from his introduction, it seems he just arrived in Shangjing not long ago.â
âHis words and demeanor were very natural, showing no signs of issues.â
âHowever, I paid extra attention later on and found that he seemed very interested in the recent theft incident, even making veiled inquiries about Uncle Dengâs whereabouts.â
âDo you think he could be connected to Uncle Dengâs disappearance?â
Wen Li finished, eyes glowing as they stared at Fu Qian, indicating this thought had been weighing on their mind for some time.
Deng Feizhou, eh? In fact, the person most involved is right in front of you.
Fu Qian thought to himself.
Despite Deng Feizhou disappearing without a trace, Fu Qian still had a deep impression of him.
â`
Incredibly, there was a method to forcibly elevate someone to the realm of a demigod, which is truly astonishing.
However, Wen Liâs suspicions werenât unfounded.
Having been around for so many years and knowing so many people, Deng Feizhouâs disappearance drew inquiries, which was not unusual, but acting too furtively was not normal.
Fu Qian couldnât help but recall the Native Council that had been mentioned earlier.
Since it was called a council, there should be at least three people to cast votes, otherwise it wouldnât work.
And with one of the members dying mysteriously, having some reaction was only natural.
This possibility was not small.
If that was truly the case, as the murderer himself, he should pay attention to it to avoid being caught off guard.
âActually, after Uncle Deng disappeared, Chief Yuan came to me to understand the situation and specifically instructed me to report anything unusual to her immediately.â
âDo you think I should give them a heads-up? Considering itâs purely personal conjecture, Iâve been hesitant.â
Chief Yuan had reached out to Wen Li?
That made sense, as Wen Li had mentioned that the Night Watchman had sealed off Deng Feizhouâs home.
Given Chief Yuanâs capabilities, although the scene was in disarray, it shouldnât be difficult to confirm Deng Feizhouâs death.
There was also Chen Xingâs mutated corpse; Chief Yuan must have realized there was more to the theft.
Under such circumstances, it was logical to approach Wen Li for information, the likelihood of suspecting her was not high, but as for himself, it was a different story.
Seeing Wen Liâs eyes fixed on him with such intensity,
Had this girl realized this, and thus deliberately spoke to him first? Wanting to act according to his opinion?
She really was very thorough.
Theoretically speaking, it would be better to grasp the general situation and prepare before informing the Night Watchman.
Fu Qian was about to speak when he suddenly raised an eyebrow, thinking of another issue.
Sneaking around to inquire about Deng Feizhouâs situation could, of course, be the Native Council on one hand.
On the other hand, it could very well be a test by Chief Yuan.
If we assume that this person deliberately revealed himself to Wen Li, and Wen Li, after contacting him, did not report to the Night WatchmanâŠ
Could it be that this just validated Chief Yuanâs suspicions?
Taking this possibility into account, it might be better to switch strategies and use the ruse against its designer.
Even if Chief Yuan was innocent, it didnât matter. Not only would he be using her to eliminate threats, but she might also need his help if they actually found something.
That way, he could neutralize the threat while conveniently using up the promise of cooperation.
Itâs like killing several birds with one stone.
âSince Chief Yuan made a special request, you might as well tell her,â
Fu Qian decided and said directly to Wen Li.
âFrom what I know, sheâs quite idle lately, so donât feel embarrassed about giving her something to do.â
âŠ
By the time Fu Qian left Wen Liâs place, it was already dark.
Instead of returning to the bookstore, he found a secluded spot and took off his mask.
Even though it was a bit noisy to go back, resting in this world was too dangerous.
With his special constitution, he could be targeted by something at any time.
Better safe than sorry.
Back in the familiar living room, thankfully, perhaps due to the late hour, the calls were not as loud as before.
The downside was that they were still loud enough.
After enduring the five-minute symphony, Fu Qianâs mood soured considerably.
Quiet!
Looking at a ring of flickering orbs, a thought crossed his mind.
âŠ
Click!
In the dormitory, He Xian looked at Pei Yanqing, who had closed her notebook with a surprised expression.
âWhatâs wrong? Was the movie that scary?â
âNot exactlyâŠâ
Pei Yanqing had trouble understanding her own emotions at the moment.
After a moment of silence, she, having lost the mood to continue watching movies, silently took her things and went to wash up.
At the same time, several people in Lincheng had the same reaction as her.
Is it really that magical?
Looking at the dimming and disappearing orbs, Fu Qian contemplated thoughtfully.
Leveraging this special link, it seemed his will could be transmitted to these people to some extent?
