Chapter 2789: Replacement of jade pendant

“We can talk over the phone …” Lingshan wanted to make it short.

“Let’s meet and talk. ” Tang Yuqi hung up the phone without saying anything.

Lingshan had no choice but to wait outside the station.

“Captain song, are you waiting for a boyfriend again?” Song Lingshan stood at the entrance of the police station. The colleagues who passed by couldn’t help but ask jokingly. Tang Yuqi had been coming to see song Lingshan a lot recently. Everyone saw it and thought that Tang Yuqi was song Lingshan’s boyfriend or a promising suitor.

After all, song Lingshan wouldn’t go out with Tang Yuqi so often if she wasn’t interested.

This wasn’t Songshan city, and not many people knew about Lin Yi. Plus, Lingshan couldn’t explain why Tang Yuqi was here, either. She could only smile bitterly.

Tang Yuqi ran over. He was a practitioner, so he had good stamina. When he saw song Lingshan come out, he said apologetically,”Lingshan, you’re out already? I’m sorry, there were a lot of people in the hotel elevator, so I had to wait for a while. ”

“It’s nothing. Let’s talk while we walk. ” Even if Lingshan wanted to talk about Tang Jucheng’s family, she couldn’t do it outside the police station.

“Okay, let’s take a walk and have some supper!” Tang Yuqi nodded and said.

After a while, when there was no one around, Lingshan said, “I’ve helped you find out about Tang Jucheng’s family. ”

“Ah? What?” Tang Yuqi was stunned. He didn’t have much hope at first. He only asked song Lingshan out recently to ask her out. As for Tang Jucheng, from song Lingshan’s attitude, he felt that there was more to it. He didn’t think that song Lingshan would give him such an answer today.

“Their family is currently out of town, but because of some special reasons, I don’t know where exactly they are. They keep it a secret, but I contacted them through other people. Your second uncle and second aunt might come back to Eastern Sea city soon, and I can arrange for you to meet them.” Lingshan said.

“Ah? Really? That’s great, when will they be back?” For Tang Yuqi, finding Tang Jucheng’s family was a pleasant surprise.

“This will take some time,” Lingshan said. She wasn’t sure herself, since Mrs. Tang had just returned from the valley-she couldn’t leave right away, and there were some things she had to tell her,”But it’s definitely in the near future.”

“Is that so … Then I’ll have to thank you!” Tang Yuqi thought for a while and said,”I’ve been in Donghai city for a long time. I’ve been doing nothing all this time. This isn’t like me. Lingshan, can you help me out and let me work at the police station?”

“Uh … You’re here at the police station?” Song Lingshan was surprised. She didn’t think that Tang Yuqi would suddenly make such a request.

“Yeah, but don’t worry, I won’t ask for a sky-high price. I’ll just be a temporary worker. What’s your standard for hiring temporary workers? just give me how much I’m paid.” Tang Yuqi said.

“Ah? “You’re a famous detective, the price of a temporary job …”Song Lingshan was speechless, but she could make the decision. The police and drivers in the team were all hired, so if Tang Yuqi really just wanted to be a temporary job, then it wouldn’t be a problem.

“Haha, actually, I’m not short of money. I made a lot of money when I was a detective overseas. I was just bored and wanted to find something to do.” Tang Yuqi said,”don’t you have a lot of cases?” I can help you with the case, but I don’t have to pay you. ”

“Alright then. In that case, you can come to work tomorrow.” Song Lingshan thought about it and agreed. Now that Tang Jucheng’s matter was solved, she didn’t have to hide from Tang Yuqi anymore. Tang Yuqi was a famous detective overseas, and he could be an expert in solving cases. It wouldn’t cost much, and it could increase the efficiency of the case. Why not?

“Hehe, then I’ll be your subordinate from now on. You have to take care of me in the future!” “Today, I’ll treat my beautiful superior to supper first and pull some strings!” Tang Yuqi said with a smile.

“Let’s forget about supper? It’s already very late?” Lingshan said as she looked at the time on her watch.

“It’s not too late, and it’s not far ahead. The night market food stall is just up ahead. Take it as my thanks for helping me find my second uncle!” Tang Yuqi pointed to a place not far away.

“Alright, then.” Song Lingshan thought about it and nodded. Since Tang Yuqi didn’t ask about Tang Jucheng like before, song Lingshan didn’t have to be wary of him anymore. Eating with him was a lot easier …

Xinyan had been able to go to school as usual these past few days, and it seemed like there was nothing wrong with her, but the Jade was still troubling Lin Yi. The lanjie Yuling grass only treated the symptoms, not the root of the problem. It could only be used for a short period of time, and it couldn’t be used for a long time.

As for the Jade, Lin Yi really couldn’t think of a way to solve it. He even thought of using the art of Dragon mastery to replenish the Jade’s energy, but it was helpless. The Jade wasn’t a practitioner, nor was it a spirit beast. It couldn’t absorb energy passively.

Lin Yi couldn’t do anything about this situation-he had all the energy in his body, but he couldn’t transfer it to the Jade. The Jade’s situation reminded him of the energy stone Jingyi had-he wondered if the energy stone would be useful to Xinyan.

Last time, when little eleven came looking for her, there wasn’t much energy left in the energy stone, and she didn’t continue using it for cultivation, putting it aside for now. Lin Yi went to get the stone and studied it.

Sun Jingyi’s energy stone was a little brighter than the one Yu Dake gave her last time, but it was already very dull. In other words, this energy stone should be similar to a jade pendant-the more energy it contained, the brighter the stone’s color. After the energy was used up, the color would become dimmer and dimmer until it couldn’t be used anymore.

And so, Lin Yi tried to see if he could transfer his energy into the stone, but it was still a failure! It seemed that the Qi in Lin Yi’s body was different from the pure energy in the natural world. Lin Yi’s Qi could be transformed into other types of Qi or energy, but the condition was that the recipient had to be a practitioner or a spirit beast. They could guide Lin Yi’s art of Dragon mastery to transform Lin Yi’s Qi into the Qi or energy they needed. It couldn’t be used on dead things like jade and energy stones. (To be continued.)
