No wonder Du Bisheng explained when he taught Yanran Yixiao that this name was given because a beautiful woman's smile is like an illusion, which can make people infatuated. Zheng Yubai didn't quite understand this metaphor at the time, but now he finally understood it. He had to admit that a beautiful and charming woman like Xu Jin could indeed smile as powerfully as an illusion.
Unfortunately, just like the joke Einstein told when explaining the theory of relativity, time always passes quickly when chatting with a beautiful woman. Seeing that it was getting dark, Zheng Yubai stood up and said goodbye to Xu Jin and Yu Luo, and reluctantly went to work.
When he entered the apartment, he didn't see Caoji, but Heipi was on duty. Zheng Yubai asked and found out that the assassination at the toll station this morning was a big deal. Caoji was ordered to communicate with the police, and he probably had to go out for social events in the evening.
"I heard that you are very brave this morning." Heipi patted Zheng Yubai's shoulder approvingly, "I am optimistic about you. It won't be long before the company will use you."
Zheng Yubai scratched his head and smiled awkwardly. He didn't want to be reused by the company. He had been planning to submit his resume and find a proper job these days.
After Heipi left, Tan Laoda, Xie Chunlai and others came to ask Zheng Yubai about what happened in the morning. Zheng Yubai gave them a brief and concise explanation, which impressed them deeply.
"Administrator, if I encounter this kind of thing in the future, you must help me." said Boss Tan.
"I want one too." Wang William joined in the fun.
Zheng Yubai smiled and agreed to all of them. Perhaps these people were considered to be heinous criminals by outsiders, but to Zheng Yubai, they were not only the company's guests, but also his friends. Even if there were some mistakes, he couldn't bear to see them get hurt.
The conversation lasted until almost ten o'clock, but everyone did not leave as usual. Tan Lao Da suddenly pointed to the clock on the wall and said, "It's ten o'clock, everyone, watch the news."
Everyone rushed to the TV. Zheng Yubai was puzzled. Mr. Bing came over and said, "The news reported that the detective Li Canghai concluded that the museum theft was done by the king of thieves Xu Ruoyu. We are all very curious."
"Oh? Why are you curious?" Zheng Yubai didn't know the reason.
"Doesn't the administrator know? Xu Ruoyu's only disciple is Xie Chunlai." Uncle Bing pointed at Xie Chunlai, who was sitting on the sofa, staring at the program on TV that was interviewing Li Canghai.
Zheng Yubai suddenly realized, no wonder everyone called Xie Chunlai a thief, he didn't expect that although he looked unremarkable, he actually had such a distinguished master background.
"By the way, administrator, there won't be any problems with the Maserati, right?" Mr. Bing asked carefully.
"It shouldn't be." Thinking of the conversation between V and the young man at the Royal Palace Hotel today, Zheng Yubai can basically confirm that no clues have been exposed so far.
Mr. Bing let out a long sigh: "If Xiao Fang finds me, I will be dead."
Zheng Yubai was still terrified when he thought of the thrilling scene in the darkness of the garage. Fang Hongjin and V were both very powerful opponents. The outside world was indeed different from the quiet and peaceful rural campus where he grew up. There were many hidden dragons and crouching tigers and many masters.
Zheng Yubai and Bing Ye came to the sofa and watched the report on TV. The female anchor was talking to a bald middle-aged man in his fifties about the blackout and the theft of Along the River During the Qingming Festival. The middle-aged man was the world-renowned detective Li Canghai. He made a chart with five shocking thefts committed by the king of thieves Xu Ruoyu ten years ago. He analyzed the similarities between these cases and the theft of Along the River During the Qingming Festival one by one, and finally determined that this case was committed by Xu Ruoyu.
"Boss thief, was this really done by your master?" Fatty Zhao Qiang asked Xie Chunlai.
Xie Chunlai's face was always very serious. After hearing Zhao Qiang's question, he frowned and whispered, "It couldn't have been done by my master."
"The detective's analysis is very logical, and you are stuck in the apartment. How do you know it wasn't your master who did it?" asked Boss Tan.
Xie Chunlai said in a muffled voice: "The method is indeed exactly the same as my master's, but I guarantee with my life that this is definitely not done by my master."
"That's because your master saw that you were not doing well enough, so he accepted another disciple." Someone teased. Everyone laughed. A hint of strangeness flashed across Xie Chunlai's face, and after a long silence, he suddenly stood up and went back to his room.
When everyone saw the protagonist leave, they discussed the topic for a while, but then felt it was boring and dispersed.
"Xie Chunlai's stealing skills are very powerful. I have always admired him." Du Bisheng appeared behind Zheng Yubai without knowing when. "Although his skills in playing mahjong are not as good as our Qianmen's Lingxi Finger and Chaos Palm, he has a unique way of using strength, which is very clever."
Zheng Yubai turned around and looked at Du Bisheng: "Do you want me to learn a few tricks from him?"
"There are still five days left before the God of Gamblers competition. If you want to win the title of God of Gamblers, you still need to work hard."
"I don't want to be a gambler." Zheng Yubai waved his hand.
"It's never a bad thing to learn more skills." Du Bisheng smiled cunningly.
Zheng Yubai thought that this old man probably wanted him to be the first to help him achieve his wish of becoming the God of Gamblers. He also wanted to be a low-key ordinary citizen. If he became the God of Gamblers, he would never have a peaceful life.
Although he did not plan to ask Xie Chunlai for advice on stealing techniques as Du Bisheng had suggested, Zheng Yubai still spent a lot of time reviewing the three gambling techniques with Du Bisheng that night. After Du Bisheng went to bed, he practiced boxing for another two hours.
After practicing boxing, he felt relaxed and comfortable, as if he had just taken a hot bath. All the pores in his body opened up, feeling the air around him. Zheng Yubai was like an old monk in meditation, feeling peaceful, sitting cross-legged on the ground, and entering a state of enlightenment.
It was not until the sky brightened and the first ray of sunlight shone on his face through the gap in the curtains that Zheng Yubai slowly woke up. He was surprised to find that his internal strength seemed to be stronger than when he graduated from college.
Perhaps it is because I have been living in dangerous and thrilling situations recently that I have grown so fast, Zheng Yubai thought.
Life has undergone a transformation from low-key and peaceful to complex and complicated. Compared with the youthful days when he just graduated, Zheng Yubai seems to have become a completely different person without realizing it.
This is probably the charm of life. (To be continued)
