Back in her room, Lin Xi fell into a deep sleep.
In my dream, strange things kept tearing at my body, one piece, two pieces, three pieces...
They were so numerous and densely packed that they were impossible to count.
With a whoosh, she turned into a blade of grass, and then was trampled to death by a giant foot.
In a flash, it changed again.
This time it was a caterpillar that fell off a tree and smashed into a worm pancake.
It's changed again, a stone, a feather, a flower blooming on cow dung...
Lin Xi turned over, touched something warm, snuggled closer to it, and fell asleep again.
The moment she moved, the man beside her woke up.
Fu Jingyao leaned down and kissed her lips, his gaze lingering on hers.
"Xixi, go to sleep."
Lin Xi was completely unaware of this and had no idea that she had been secretly kissed in the middle of the night.
Next, we spent a week on the island.
The group picked some wild fruits and flowers and then took a cruise through Fogsea City.
Yu Ruo escorted Cang Xiaoyu away, the worry between her brows disappearing, replaced by a faint smile.
The little fish grew a bit bigger and started speaking human language.
"Mommy, Mommy, coo coo coo."
Lin Xi was full of questions. "Why does he call me 'Mom'?"
Yu Ruo patted the little fish's head. "It's a biological instinct; the first thing it says is 'Mommy.'"
The little fish leaped out of the water and blew bubbles.
Little Shui leaned on the railing, "The little fish is even more handsome today. It will definitely turn into a giant bream next year."
The little fish still splashed water all over him with its tail, "gurgle gurgle".
“He calls me auntie.”
Xiao Shui wasn't angry at all; instead, she laughed happily.
Little Fire adds his usual sarcasm, "They're looking down on you, not welcoming you, you simp Shui Shui."
Xiao Shui snorted coldly, "None of your business?"
The little fish suddenly swam over and blew a bubble for him.
Xiao Shui's eyes lit up. "Thank you. Canglin is the cutest and most handsome fish in the world."
Yu Ruo recalled the little fish, "We're almost at the shore, it's inconvenient for me to show myself."
"Goodbye, Sister Xiaoxi. I wish you happiness."
Lin Xi waved and said, "See you next year."
The little elves waved in unison, "See you next year! Wishing Xiaoyu and Xiaoyu happiness and joy!"
After resting in Wuhai City for three days and buying a lot of local specialties, I flew back to the capital.
After playing for more than twenty days, the little elves were tired and fell fast asleep on the sofa.
Fu Jingyao went to the company to handle some matters.
Lin Xi lay down for a while, then took out a few pieces of the broken metal.
Each piece was bigger and darker than the last.
One piece inside Wu Ting's body, one piece of the Money and Gold Secret Manual, one piece from the Northeast Fox Base, one piece of the Thousand-Year-Old Corpse, one piece of the Ghost Realm Monster, and one piece of the Mermaid.
Shi Kong once explicitly stated that he had a piece of it.
There are currently seven fragments. How many fragments are there in total?
Lin Xi observed carefully, noticing her dry eyes, but still couldn't discern anything.
The fragments were of varying sizes and depths, with no discernible pattern.
They wouldn't even consider using it for chopping firewood because it's dirty.
Why is that organization looking for the fragments?
Even if you collect all of these, you can't summon the dragon.
Lin Xi tossed and turned, but still couldn't figure it out.
She wrapped the six fragments in a yellow talisman and took a taxi to the Special Administration Bureau.
The Special Administration Bureau was brightly lit, and the atmosphere was tense.
The pug guarding the door pricked up its ears, constantly alert to its surroundings, and could smell the scent of strangers from afar.
He immediately stepped forward and said, "Woof woof, this is a confidential area, outsiders are not allowed to enter."
Lin Xi rubbed his head. "I'm looking for someone, Yun Yan."
The pug wagged its tail obediently, "So it's a big shot. Please, please. Captain Yun happens to be on duty today."
He personally led the way, barking inside, "Woof woof, Captain Yun, your little darling is here."
In an instant, everyone looked towards the doorway, curiously observing the woman who had entered.
Jiang Yuanyuan put down her coffee, her expression unusually excited, and hurriedly opened her arms.
"Hey boss, over here, I've missed you so much!"
Lin Xi dodged her hug, "How have you been lately?"
"That's good, that's good."
Jiang Yuanyuan looked left and right, up and down, her smile gradually becoming distorted.
Her family has a long tradition of corpse handling, and she has a deep understanding of human anatomy.
You can tell which piece of meat is missing just by touching it.
The boss exudes a sweet aura, having completed her transformation from girl to woman.
Hehe, she understands.
Jiang Yuanyuan rubbed her hands together like a fly, "Boss, you've changed."
"What has changed?"
"You've stopped loving me."
Jiang Yuanyuan grabbed Lin Xi's hand. "Look, I've discovered it! A hidden treasure!"
The huge diamond ring on the boss's ring finger was so dazzling it almost blinded her.
Holy crap! Holy crap!!
"I saw it online, a heart full of love, with so many zeros, and I heard it was bought by a mysterious buyer."
"Boss, it's actually in your hands!"
"If you become rich and powerful, don't forget me, holy crap!!"
Lin Xi slapped her hand away, "Girls should be more polite. Your words are full of nationalistic sentiments."
"What kind of politeness?" Jiang Yuanyuan smiled crookedly, "The kind that kills a vengeful ghost with one punch."
Lin Xi had nothing to say. "You win."
"Let me take a closer look."
Jiang Yuanyuan squatted down, her eyes wide open like copper bells.
"The luster, the purity, the design—it's beautiful, absolutely gorgeous! How many lifetimes of work would it take me to afford this?"
"Boss, if you meet a rich guy, please introduce me to one... Ah! Captain, what are you doing?"
Yun Yan, expressionless, tossed down a stack of documents and said, "Hurry up and organize them, don't bother the young master any longer."
Jiang Yuanyuan hurriedly took it, "Captain, no one is more of a straight man than you. You're jealous of me, jealous of the boss... mmm mmm."
Seeing that things were not going well, Bai Xiuyuan covered her mouth tightly, saying, "Shut your mouth right now."
