Chapter 172 [(*^▽^*)]

Lin Leyou then slowly poked his head out from the balcony. "Officer?"

The two police officers who remained there breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing him. "Hello, are you Mr. Lin, a resident here?"

Lin Leyou nodded, "Yes, my surname is Lin, and I was the one who called the police."

"Okay, are you alright?"

Lin Leyou patted his clothes. "It's okay. I hid on the balcony when I heard them unlocking the door."

"That's good. In that case, come with us to the police station to make a statement. It won't take up much of your time."

Lin Leyou looked at the blood on the ground and walls. "This house is rented by me. I'm really sorry to have caused the landlord so much trouble..."

"There's nothing we can do about it."

Lin Leyou went with them to the police station to give a statement, while the rest stayed behind to investigate the scene, since a lot of things required evidence.

Especially the one who was lying on the ground just now, after the ambulance arrived, the doctor said before taking him away that he might not be able to be saved, which means that he might die.

Lin Leyou didn't think it was his fault. They were the ones who cut it, so what did it have to do with him?

Even if he really died, Lin Leyou could not take the blame on himself. He glanced at the little spider hiding in the corner. Just now, he had let the little spider crawl on them and scratch them with its sharp forelegs.

I only meant to scare them, but I didn't expect it to actually scare them. I didn't expect it to scare them this much. Is this what they mean by "If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear"?

Lin Leyou looked terrified when he went to give his statement.

"To be honest, I was terrified. I took out my phone as soon as I heard the sound of the lock being picked, but they were so clever. They opened the door and came in as soon as I hid on the balcony."

"There was nothing I could do. If I had called at that time, they would have definitely heard me, so I could only hide on the balcony. Later, I heard them searching through the room, and when they couldn't find me, I realized I hadn't come back."

"Then I don't know what happened, but it seems that someone was injured and screamed. Not long after, someone else screamed that they had also been cut."

"Later, they seemed to be scared. Two people said, 'If you dare to cut me, I'll fucking kill you.' Another person said, 'You cut me first.' A third person was trying to break up the fight and tell them to stop fighting."

"Soon after, the person who tried to break up the fight went silent, and the remaining two were still fighting inside, even using knives. Because the fight was quite loud, I called the police. I spoke in a low voice, but they didn't hear me."

Lin Leyou said everything she could, and seemed very distressed and scared, especially about the house and the broken door. Lin Leyou was definitely planning to pay for a new one herself.

This can be considered compensation for the landlord. Just spend some money to clean the place up. Anyway, no one died, it was just a burglary, so the landlord shouldn't be too angry.

I'll be staying there for several more months, so I figure there won't be any unrentable properties when he moves out.

Lin Leyou quickly received a call from the landlord, who was very easy to talk to. After Lin Leyou said he would hire someone to clean the place and pay for a new door himself, the landlord didn't say anything more.

After all, there was blood everywhere at the scene, and the landlord himself was terrified. It was better that the tenant was safe and sound.

"I'm so glad you're alright. You have no idea how much my heart almost stopped when I saw that scene!"

He genuinely believed that the young man had been robbed and murdered. If that were the case, wouldn't his house become a haunted house? Would he still be able to rent it out in the future?

The fact that Lin Leyou was still alive was the best news for him, not to mention that Lin Leyou would be staying in this house for a while, so there weren't many other problems.

"Don't worry, I'm hiding. Some of the robbers got into a fight and started attacking each other in the house. They were even slashing at each other with knives. It was terrifying."

The landlord asked uncertainly, "Is it that kid Zhou Nanyue...?"

Lin Leyou sighed, "Zhou Nanyue didn't come, but the person who was with Zhou Nanyue during the day did. I guess he's with them."

Although Zhou Nanyue did not participate, he was involved in planning and instigating the crime, so he also needed to be locked up. Soon, Zhou Nanyue was arrested.

Lin Leyou was finally able to get a good night's sleep.

He retrieved his spiderlings, had the house cleaned and a new security door installed, and life returned to normal, peaceful and stable.

If only Xue Rui weren't in H City!

This has made Lin Leyou afraid to go out casually. Fortunately, Xue Rui is not someone that ordinary people like her can easily meet. The hotel she stayed at before was one of the best hotels in H City.

That's probably why we met. As long as we avoid high-end places in the future, we'll never see each other again, right?

He returned to his residence and inserted the key into the lock on the inside of the door. The three men had removed the key from the lock when they came to prevent them from getting in.

It needs to be redone now.

Zhou Nanyue has been arrested, and so have the others. No one else will come, right? They're just gamblers.

As Lin Leyou lay on the bed, intending to return to the Endless World, he suddenly felt a little unsafe.

"System, if something happens to my body, can I come back immediately?"

"Note: If your body encounters a crisis in the real world, the system will notify you. You can directly awaken in the real world by deducting 100,000 points, and vice versa."

100,000 points!!

The same applies to the reverse!

In other words, if my body in the Endless World is in danger while I am in the real world, I can wake up directly, but 100,000 points will be deducted!

Goodness, this round trip requires 200,000 points. The system is amazing; this fee deduction is really powerful.

Lin Leyou was quite frightened by the 100,000 points, but fortunately he had enough points on hand. If he really encountered an emergency, he definitely wouldn't care about 100,000 points.

"Return to the endless world."

After returning to the Endless World, Lin Leyou was given four hours of time. He glanced at the still dark sky, lay down, and continued to sleep.

100,000 points for four hours... it's still more worthwhile to deduct the time!

The random selection period is a maximum of ten hours, with 10,000 points per hour?

Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore.

After waking up, Lin Leyou went to the coach's place to practice physical skills. Of course, every time he came back, he was lying on the back seat like a dead dog and was taken home by Jiang Xiali.

There's no way I can practice driving today, but there's something we need to discuss properly.

Lin Leyou sat weakly on the sofa, his body aching all over. "Uncle Jiang, you go ahead and say it. We made an appointment before, and now we're just discussing the details."

Jiang Changhai smiled and nodded, "I still have to thank you for this. Take a look at this."

Lin Leyou saw him hand over a piece of paper, picked it up and looked at it casually. It was a rental contract, which stated how many points he would have to pay to rent his props for how long.

Lin Leyou said, "Uncle Jiang, didn't I say I wouldn't charge you for using the props this time? I'll only charge you if you need them a second time."

Jiang Changhai laughed heartily, "This time it's not me, look closely."

Lin Leyou took a closer look and realized that the name on it wasn't Jiang Changhai, but someone he didn't recognize. "Didn't you ask me to help you choose someone to rent?"

"Anyway, I still have to wait about ten days for my game room to open. Everyone else is thinking of borrowing it. It costs one million points to borrow it once, which is a pretty good price."

You should know that Jiang Changdong had previously asked for one million in public, but privately it was definitely more than that, especially since when I asked to borrow it, he asked for 1.5 million points.

He had previously tested Jiang Changdong by offering double points, which meant he could borrow three million at once, but Jiang Changdong still refused. At that moment, he knew that the item was definitely not in his possession.

Lin Leyou readily signed the document, then handed the gold-plated props to Jiang Changhai, saying, "Then I'll leave them to Uncle Jiang."

One million points! That means I can freely travel between two worlds five times whenever I'm in danger. Not bad! This item can provide me with a continuous stream of points!

Jiang Changhai examined the prop closely for a long time. "What an amazing prop! Jiang Changdong is really lucky!"

Lin Leyou suddenly blurted out, "Could it be that they used a lucky charm?"

Upon hearing this, all three people present were stunned for a moment.

Jiang Xia blinked blankly, "Ah! I knew it! How could I be so lucky and have such a coincidence! It must be related to the lucky item!"

Gu Qingmei put down her teacup. "If it's true, then it's a one-time lucky item. I didn't expect him to have such a good thing."

Jiang Changhai snorted coldly, "So what if that's the case? In the end, it still benefits Xiao You, doesn't it?"

Jiang Xiali laughed heartily, "Dad, you're right. It's not just Xiaoyou who benefits, but us too."

Then he looked at Lin Leyou and said, "Your luck level must be pretty high!"

Lin Leyou, "What's your luck stat?"

Jiang Xiali's lips twitched. "How would I know? I can't see it yet."

Lin Leyou's eyes flickered slightly, and he asked casually, "When can we see it?"

In Jiangxiali, "I'll be able to see it when I become an upper-class resident like my parents, but you can't just ask about it casually. Asking someone about their luck value is like asking them what their specific talents are or how many item cards they have in their backpack. It's very impolite, and someone with a bad temper might just attack you."

Lin Leyou breathed a sigh of relief, "So that's how it is."

He also received some information: luck value does exist, but he would only be able to see his luck value once his resident status changed to upper class.

Jiang Xiali thought, "Ugh... Come to think of it, why aren't there any items that permanently increase luck? It's so annoying! I really want to be lucky too!"

Lin Leyou: "Isn't that Lin Wanyi's?"

In Jiangxia Li, "That thing only works if you wear it, but it's easy for it to be stolen. Besides, most other lucky items are one-time use only and don't permanently increase your luck value."
