Chapter 1961: Chapter 1959: Test Subject
When he handed this item to Qin Yize for research help, Qin Yize glanced at it indifferently before putting it aside. He then turned and picked up a box from the shelf, opened it, and pushed it in front of Nie Kuan.
Nie Luan took a look; it was identical to the phone in his hand, and he couldn’t help but excitedly ask, "Did you develop a new product again?"
"This is for you. Let me know the usage situation in a month," Qin Yize said calmly.
Nie Luan happily took the phone, turned it on, and found nothing unusual, though he couldn’t shake the feeling that the phone was enveloped with a strange aura.
Qin Yize explained, "Apart from the regular battery, there’s a cluster of energy inside. If you encounter danger and the battery runs out, the energy inside could still provide power to the phone, allowing you to call for help externally."
Nie Luan was aware of the situation in the basement then. Since the battle had ended when he went there, he naturally wasn’t disturbed by the Demonic Qi of the Dark Devil, which caused the phone battery to fail, though he was still worried inside.
If any of them were to face danger later and couldn’t call for external rescue, it would be a terrible thing; after all, stepping into this circle means facing things unimaginable to others, and naturally, dangers also unimaginable.
Now Qin Yize has truly solved this problem.
However, Nie Luan didn’t immediately agree. His dark eyes rolled; his life has been full of ups and downs, with his grandfather’s tragic death, enemies caught by the law, and his bloodline deeply linked with Dongfang Yu. Fortunately, Dongfang Yu is no longer in Imperial Capital and has long left, so there are no mutual interferences.
Nonetheless, he knows the road ahead is long, and things aren’t as easy as imagined.
He couldn’t help but ask tentatively, "How many of these phones have you made?"
Qin Yize slightly moved his eyebrows, fully aware of Nie Luan’s thoughts. He smirked, saying, "I only developed this one. Qiaoqiao doesn’t know yet, and before the testing and experimentation, I’m not giving it to her."
Famous people don’t speak in implicit terms, and Qin Yize disdained to play tricks on Nie Luan, speaking directly as he thought.
Nie Luan blinked, opened his mouth, finding himself wordless against Qin Yize’s bluntness. Somewhat unwillingly, he said, "After all the times we’ve been buddies, are you using me as a test subject?"
Qin Yize curled his lips, tapping his long fingers on the desk, pointing at the phone, his tone steady with an invisible sense of pressure, "Nie Luan, allowing you to test this should be an honor. If you don’t like it, I might as well find someone else..."
He said, reaching out to take the phone back.
Nie Luan was startled, quickly reaching out both hands to grab Qin Yize’s hand along with the phone. Of course, Qin Yize wasn’t used to a man holding both his hands, discreetly withdrawing, though he fixed his gaze on Nie Luan.
When it comes to being calm and composed, Qin Yize is unmatched.
Including Nie Luan as well.
He laughed sheepishly, "Ah Ze, I was just joking with you. It’s truly an honor to use what President Qin developed. Alright, I’ll tell you the usage effects in a month."
Qin Yize was satisfied and curled his lips.
Nie Luan secretly grimaced; Qin Yize, who appeared superficially warm and gentle but is actually full of malicious ideas, clearly developed it for his spouse but made him the test subject. However, there’s no choice; he was willing to be this test subject.
That little bit of frustration quickly faded, and he forgot to remind Qin Yize to help research the spiritual body tester sometime. He happily carried the box away.
Qin Yize glanced at the so-called instrument, casually tossing it into a wastebasket. No need for research; he knew the instrument was too crude.
He checked the time; it was time to end the day’s work. Tomorrow, he had a business trip abroad for half a month; before leaving, he had to thoroughly explain things to Gu Qiaoqiao.
Of course, returning home earlier for dinner, coaxing the children to sleep early to enjoy the benefits he wouldn’t get for half a month.
Thinking of this, he quickly skimmed through the documents on the desk, signed them, and handed them over to his assistant Luh Fei, driving swiftly in the direction of home.
The night deepened, with the black night sky enveloping the bustling Imperial Capital. Lin Qinghuan, under the help of Old Spirit, hid in an abandoned basement and hadn’t left for many days. Surprisingly, there was a benefit; her form seemed somewhat better again, not like before when she seemed to be easily scattered by any passing breeze.
This old spirit was called Old Spirit, and at the moment he congealed into a spiritual body, he forgot all his past.
Perhaps he died without regrets; perhaps he died too tragically; in any case, he forgot everything.
But he was peculiar; he seemed naturally capable of absorbing Yin Qi and the aura of other spiritual bodies. So, in this West City District, he was considered the boss, though leading was quite meaningless with only a few spiritual bodies under his power, for not everyone can congeal into a spiritual body after death.
Moreover, he genuinely disliked his current life, unable to see sunlight and having to lurk in dark corners, powerless to do anything. He remembered loving to read, but now he didn’t even have the ability to turn a page.
Regarding Lin Qinghuan’s plea for help, he was somewhat contemptuous; if she dissipates, let it be, isn’t it nice to move on to the next reincarnation?
However, the other party pleaded bitterly, claiming unfinished wishes, and a surge of sympathy made him take her to a place with abundant Yin Qi to nourish herself.
By now, seeing her much improved, he no longer bothered, drifting away aimlessly.
After he left, Lin Qinghuan pondered her next step. Should she leave?
Would she be discovered by Gu Qiaoqiao? Several times, she felt a powerful aura and Divine Sense seemingly watching over this realm, frightening her into immobility.
Thankfully, the terrifying aura vanished quickly, making her suspect that it might’ve been released by Gu Qiaoqiao; otherwise, nobody else would possess such an aura, and no one would seek her, as only Gu Qiaoqiao could see her.
Thinking further, maybe she should wait until she’s better.
Then suddenly, a spiteful intention emerged from her body; congealing into a spiritual body was not easy, and having the Dark Devil gave her some hope before, now even the Dark Devil was slain by Gu Qiaoqiao’s sword. At her side, no magic or malevolent energy guided her anymore.
Old Spirit said, for spiritual bodies like theirs, they’re shadows, unseen and unwelcome. If he could reincarnate, he would do so immediately.
