Chapter 97: Chapter 76: Li Yuan Blows Bubbles~Chen Mo Explores the Tunnel! (4K)

"Chen Mo, you’re awake?!"

Li Yuan’s face lit up with surprise, and she extended two fingers and waved them in front of his eyes, "How many?"

It’s said that many patients with soul loss, even if they are lucky enough to awaken, will still be left with various sequelae.

Some suffer from memory loss, no longer recognizing their kin, while others experience a regression in intellect, becoming no smarter than a five-year-old child... However, Chen Mo just called out her name, which seems to indicate his memory is still intact.

"..."

Chen Mo stared at the bouncing chest, feeling somewhat parched in the throat, he said, "Two... Stop shaking them, I feel a bit dizzy."

Certain that Chen Mo had not become an idiot, Li Yuan finally relaxed.

A night breeze blew in through the window, and feeling a chill on his skin, Chen Mo suddenly realized something was amiss.

Following his gaze, she looked down and her expression instantly turned stiff.

?!

"Ah!"

Li Yuan cried out in shock, covering her chest and hurriedly jumping into the bathtub, causing a splash to shoot up high.

Although it was only for an instant, with Chen Mo’s keen vision power, he had seen quite a bit... Who would’ve thought that this Little Tiger was actually the plump type?

Li Yuan squatted in the tub, with the waterline reaching just over her neck.

Rouge spread across her cheeks, gradually reaching her earlobes, making them look like ripened apples.

Caught up in her urgency earlier, she hadn’t noticed, but now thinking back on that warm breath, wasn’t it pressed directly against his face...

This is the end!

Li Yuan buried her face into the water, feeling as if she couldn’t face anyone anymore.

Chen Mo was also somewhat dumbfounded and asked in confusion, "Didn’t we have a screen separating us? How did you end up on my side?"

Gurgle gurgle—

Li Yuan bubbled underwater, as if trying to drown herself.

"..."

After a moment of thought, Chen Mo guessed the likely reason; she must have been startled by his "spirit leaving body" appearance.

A hint of tenderness flashed across his eyes, he smiled and said, "Just now my Divine Sense left the body, examining the surroundings... But on the subject, General Li has quite the nice figure."

Gurgle gurgle—

Li Yuan bubbled even more.

Splash—

Chen Mo stood up out of the tub and with True Yuan in circulation, quickly evaporated the moisture.

"Uh... Keep bubbling, I’ve detected something unusual, I’ll go take a look."

That fleeting glimmer of light caught his attention, and it might well be related to the disappearances in the city.

After dressing up, he pushed the door open and walked out of the room.

Moments later, Li Yuan cautiously raised her head, making sure Chen Mo had left, then breathed a sigh of relief.

She clasped her burning cheeks, her eyes glistening, lost in her thoughts.

Upon receiving the news, the Assistant Officers quickly got ready and gathered in front of Zuixian Inn.

They had no idea what the Hundred Households Lord had discovered in the dead of night, but they had no question about his orders.

Qin Shou glanced over the crowd and asked in puzzlement, "Boss, why don’t I see General Li?"

"She..."

Before Chen Mo could finish, a figure stepped out.

The martial robe with narrow sleeves clung tightly to her, a leather belt cinched around her waist, her black ponytail held high, clean and tidy, brimming with valor.

Li Yuan had regained her cool composure, as if nothing had happened, though her gaze seemed hesitant and she dared not look in Chen Mo’s direction.

Chen Mo’s eyes held a smile as he said, "Let’s go."

"Yes!"

Everyone responded in unison.

They had only walked a few hundred meters down the street when they ran into Qiu Longgang and his crew, who were on patrol.

"Oh, Mr. Chen, not lying in your bed and taking a walk in the middle of the night?"

"Or perhaps you’d like to take over our patrol shift?"

Qiu Longgang said with a sardonic tone.

Chen Mo, uninterested in engaging with him, continued straight ahead.

Qiu Longgang snorted dismissively, leading his men to follow behind.

He had understood the case thoroughly all afternoon.

There were no clues or breakthroughs, they could only wait and hope the criminal would strike again.

But the issue was, with Linglan County being so vast and the high population mobility, how could anyone keep watch effectively?

"With a high reward for solving this case, it’s a hot potato; with the imperial inspection close at hand, if this gets out of hand, those involved will definitely have to take responsibility."

"Like to snatch cases? Hmph, you’ll be the one with headaches when the time comes!"

"I’d like to see what sort of show you can put on!"

Qiu Longgang fanned himself, a cold sneer hanging on his pale face.

Chen Mo led his group through the streets and alleys for a while until they reached the entrance of a narrow lane.

The alley was cramped, with high brick walls on both sides, and as they reached the end, a brick wall blocked their way.

"A dead end?"

Qiu Longgang shook his head mockingly, "I actually thought Mr. Chen had some discovery, turns out he’s just taking us for a walk, huh?"

The Bing Fire Department officers let out a series of suppressed chuckles.

Li Yuan remained unfazed; she knew Chen Mo’s capabilities, he must have his reasons for doing this.

Chen Mo’s eyes twinkled with a golden light as he observed the wall in front of him.

After a brief study, he wrapped True Yuan around his palm, quickly pressing between the bricks.

"Heh, playing tricks, are we..."

The words ceased abruptly, and the smile on Qiu Longgang’s face froze.

Click—

The last brick was pressed, and a luminous glow spread across the wall, forming a pattern resembling the Bagua.

Rumble—

With a deep, muffled sound, the stone wall slid open, revealing a dark entrance below.

"The Nine Palace Cloud Covering Array."

"Such intricate craftsmanship, with almost no leakage of energy, the mastery of the Formation Path is remarkable."

Chen Mo’s eyes glittered.

If not for his grasp of the Great Change Formation Solution, even with his Golden Eyes of Truth, he might spot something unusual but likely couldn’t easily break through.

"Let’s go."

He led the group into the tunnel.

Staring at the pitch-black entrance, Qiu Longgang looked dumbfounded.

?

How did Chen Mo discover such a concealed place with Array covering it?

Could he foresee the future?

The Bing Fire Department officers exchanged looks, and a General quietly asked, "Mr. Qiu, do we still follow?"
