Chapter 44: Found It
Seeing Ying Shu rub her forehead with a look of utter speechlessness, Feng Ye stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong? Can't you track down the criminal's whereabouts?"
Hearing this, Captain Meng suppressed his anger and whispered to Captain Yan, "I told you it wasn't reliable."
Ying Shu lowered her voice and said to Feng Ye, "It’s not that I can’t track them, it’s that it wants a certificate of merit once the criminal is found."
"Huh?" Feng Ye blinked. "A certificate of merit?"
"Yes, a certificate of merit issued personally by the police department."
Feng Ye let out a snort of laughter.
"Lehui, there’s no need. Just have the head nurse bring me some medicine," Wen Zhifan said, refusing Ni Lehui’s care. It was just a fever, not some serious illness; there was no need to be so anxious.
Nelson looked toward the Knicks' bench, his gaze locking onto the big man wearing number thirty. Mo Xi had played eight minutes in the first quarter, efficiently racking up ten points, two rebounds, and two assists. Such a performance made Nelson green with envy.
Zhang Yuru was also wearing a plaid dress. Her formerly short hair had grown past her shoulders and was combed neatly behind her head, held in place by a wide white headband.
This was a members-only restaurant, primarily frequented by the prominent and powerful families of the capital for dining and gatherings.

Eli and Fitch were now males hunted by the Management Council; any carelessness would lead to their whereabouts being exposed.
The holy phoenix flames scorched Su Rui’s rotting flesh, causing wisps of black vapor to dissipate.
"Very well. You go and rest first. Let me sit in this great hall a while longer, as if to fulfill my duty to Empress Qin." Ji Yun seemed somewhat dazed.
On the hills in mid-November, the grass was waist-deep and withered. As the north wind swept by, the dry grass rustled and hissed.
Just like that, they had been separated for less than ten minutes. Adding the previous time, at most twenty minutes had passed, yet they had already finished their preparations.
Luo Zhan already felt a sense of guilt; if Xing Lili had other motives in mind, he would be absolutely disgusted with himself later.
Many demonic beasts even began to pray in their hearts that Tang Ming could subdue Tathagata, for it would be entirely beneficial and harmless. After all, everyone feared a Tathagata controlled by evil thoughts.
Feitian Company took the lead in issuing a statement on the forum: all 42 employees of the company believed in Ma Zhe and supported Fang Zijin.
Listening to these words from the Pagoda of Salvation, Tang Ming couldn't help but be struck dumb, his mood impossible to describe.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone there was stunned. They had never imagined that Chu Tian could actually be alive, and Tian Mo stared at the silhouette in the wind nest with a look of astonishment.

Wu Kun and the several Nascent Soul stage cultivators around him seemed to have departed from this world, devoid of any aura, yet their physical bodies remained right before the eyes of Wang Fan and the others—a truly bizarre sight.
The implication was clear: until Fang Yi stepped forward and demonstrated overwhelming strength, he would not offer assistance.
As the words fell, silver light converged, and a massive hand manifested, pressing directly down upon the God Monarch of the Sea of Sins.
A-Hu fished the fruit knife from Zong Yifang’s waistband, tossed it onto the ground, and looked at him coldly. Zong Yifang was truly speechless, having no idea how to explain.
Jiang Yuxuan watched the two argue with a grin; he had already roughly guessed what was going on. Both men had designs on Mei Yuyao and wanted to show off in front of her and Mei Xianling. Whichever one of them could take down Jiang Yuxuan would naturally gain a tactical advantage in pursuing her.
He described the situation on the field step by step, and whenever the scene perceived by the "naked eye" changed, he would calmly state the latest developments.
Hua Qi comforted the Wang woman and sent her off to rest before returning to the main room, where she saw Tian Yue crouching at the door, dozing off.
Ning Nanxing didn’t speak, and Shen Tuantuan knew she wouldn’t get an answer out of him, figuring he would say it when he was ready. She knew his temperament well; if she stopped asking, he would inevitably feel restless. Sure enough, after Shen Tuantuan went back to her own chores, Ning Nanxing couldn't sit still.
