Chapter 159: Recognized Him at a Glance (II)
Translator: Storm in a Teacup
Seeing that he was being so mysterious, Shi looked askance at him and said, “Then let’s go back first.”
The doctor began to walk, but Shi suddenly turned his head.
The doctor stopped and blinked.
Shi said, “There is nothing strange here? No more searching?”
The doctor blinked and smiled. “No, there’s nothing strange here.”
Without saying anything more, Shi turned around and left.
With a smile on his face, the doctor followed…
When they were going down the mountain, the doctor was several meters behind Shi and he walked as fast as Shi.
When they were halfway down the hill, the doctor suddenly said, “Wait a moment.”
Shi stopped and looked at him. “What’s the matter?”
The doctor looked at the ground and stepped on it. “It’s a little strange.”
Shi also began to observe the ground. “What’s strange?”
The doctor didn’t answer him, just muttering to himself.
Shi found that the doctor was always so mysterious, so he knitted his brows.
After a while, the doctor frowned. Then, he pulled up something like grass and carefully wrapped it with a handkerchief before putting it into his pocket.
“What’s that?” Shi asked.
“I’m not sure,” the doctor said slowly.
Shi frowned.
The doctor said seriously, “It’s not that I don’t want to tell you, but that I never say anything uncertain.”
After hearing the words, Shi looked at him significantly. Then, Shi said, “You can tell me when you are sure.”
The doctor smiled. “Okay.”
Without speaking anything, Shi resumed the journey.
The doctor touched the grass and put it away. Then, he followed up…
When they arrived at the imperial city, the doctor said, “Let’s go to the mansion where I stayed earlier.”
Shi glanced at him and nodded.
The Shadow Guardians were all invisible, so it could be seen that only Shi and Doctor Liu went there.
Zhou Yu’er was still staying in that mansion. So were all the servants.
In addition, there were many Shadow Guardians hiding in the dark.
Naturally, they were sent there to watch Zhou Yu’er closely.
When they were near the gate, Doctor Liu said with a smile, “Send away the Shadow Guardian in the dark.”
Shi narrowed his eyes and didn’t speak.
The doctor said again, “If they don’t leave, how can she take action?”
After a short silence, Shi said, “That’s a good idea.”
“Haha.” The doctor laughed. “Yes, we can maximize our benefits in that way!”
Shi glanced at him and didn’t say anything.
The doctor didn’t care about Shi and went in first.
Shi followed him into the mansion. He didn’t go to see Zhou Yu’er specially, or ask more about her.
The doctor went straight to a pool in the mansion.
After arriving there, he began to rummage around.
Shi didn’t ask him what he was looking for. Shi knew that eccentric man wouldn’t tell him, so he’d better not ask.
Shi wandered around the courtyard. He waved away all the servants, telling them to do their own things and not disturb him.
Although there were not many people in the mansion and this place was quite spacious, Shi rarely had some private time.
About half an hour later, that eccentric doctor, who was doing something mysteriously there, went to Shi.
“Well, I’ve verified something. Let’s go to the imperial palace.”
“Mhmm,” Shi responded, “Let’s go back.”
However, not long after they left the mansion, a man dressed as a servant hurried over.
“Sir, our guardian wants to meet you.”
This man was a servant from Tianji Sect.
The doctor raised his eyebrows. He looked at Shi without saying anything.
Shi nodded. “Then let’s go.”
“What about me?” The doctor looked at Shi with doubt.
Shi smiled. “It’s up to you. Do you want to go back or come with me?”
After thinking for a while, the doctor said, “It seems that the place you’re going to is very interesting. I’ll go with you.”
Shi did not refuse and walked away directly.
The doctor smilingly followed him.
That servant looked the doctor up and down and thought for a moment. Then, he knew who this man was.
The servant was sent by Zou Qingyuan to invite Shi. Although he was just a servant, he was still quite capable.
Just after taking a look at the doctor, the servant had figured out his identity!
Tianji Sect was indeed an extraordinary intelligence organization!
Shi and the doctor arrived at the building under the guidance of the servant.
Shi had been very familiar with this place, but he was still very polite.
The servant took them in and led them to Zou’s room.
But the servant didn’t enter the room. He said, “Distinguished guests, our guardian has been waiting for you.”
Shi nodded lightly and said, “Thank you.”
The servant hurriedly said, “It’s my pleasure.”
Shi went inside, followed by the doctor.
Once seeing Shi, Zou went forward to welcome him. “Qingzhou, here you are. Oh? This is…”
Shi smiled. “Qingyuan, guess who he is.”
“Well?” Zou looked at the doctor carefully and the doctor also looked at Zou with a smile. Then, Zou smiled.
“It turns out that the well-known ‘Miracle Worker’ is here. I’m sorry for not going out to welcome you! Please forgive me!”
Shi raised his eyebrows slightly, because he didn’t expect that Zou could know the doctor’s identity at a glance! Zou really deserved to be the guardian of Tianji Sect!
Hearing those words, the doctor also smiled. “I don’t know when I became so famous that you recognized me in just a second.”
“Hahaha.” Zou laughed happily. “The eccentric ‘Miracle Worker’ has the unique smiling face. Of course I can recognize you.” Most of all, he was stunningly beautiful!
