Chapter 1126: Here’s a Ball for You

“Don’t worry!” Li Jing joked as she sat next to Zhao Yu, exhausted. “I’m neither your fiancée’s sister nor your mother-in-law! We’re not related in any way!”

Zhao Yu, who had a habit of shooting his mouth off, did not respond. He was on the verge of falling asleep from fatigue.

Thinking back, when Zhao Yu was still in the process of catching Cheng Lingfei, he had used a similar set of items and had slept for a whole day and night before recovering from the exhaustion.

Back then he had arrested the criminal and was allowed to recuperate in the hospital after. It was different now; he was stuck in a basement, and who knew what dangers were lurking ahead of him?

Besides, the mastermind had managed to escape, and they had no idea what sinister intentions he had. What if the criminals were to do something drastic that led to unthinkable consequences?

“Ow…” Zhao Yu let out in discomfort. He leaned against the wall and tried his best to keep his eyes open despite the drowsiness.

“Erm… you…” Li Jing fidgeted as if she were able to sense Zhao Yu’s suffering. With furrowed brows, Li Jing said softly, “Zhao Yu, what happened previously… was all my fault. I owe you a proper apology!”

“Huh?” Never in Zhao Yu’s wildest dreams had he expected the usually high and mighty Li Jing to apologize to him.

“I admit, I underestimated you! If we survive this, I hope we can become friends… alright, that’s all I have to say!” Li Jing said, blushing.

“Oh…” Zhao Yu said with a slight nod. “Looks like you really have nothing going on with my father-in-law! I was just overthinking!”

“You!?” Li Jing narrowed her eyes at Zhao Yu. However, the very next moment, they were smiling freely at each other.

Perhaps because of his injuries, Zhao Yu barely managed to squeeze out some laughter, before curling up in pain.

“Alright, you better get some rest!” Li Jing said. “The people from the Secret Service Agency are almost here, I’m sure they’ll try their best to rescue us!”

“Oh…” Zhao Yu was tempted to rest for a bit, but how could he stop worrying about what was going to happen?

Who exactly was their enemy?

Why had they led them to this base littered with explosives?

Where was the treasure?

And what was the intention of the masked person?

How was Cui Lizhu involved?

What was the distinction between ‘his mom’ and ‘your mom’…? [1]

Zhao Yu had so many questions running through his mind. He needed answers. But even after killing so many criminals, he was still unable to solve the mystery.

Just as Zhao Yu was deep in thought, the Miracle System in his mind came to life. It turned out that the Kun Gen Hexagram from two days ago had just finished its run.

Zhao Yu received an amazingly high completion rate of 435%, again setting a new record. This record was even more remarkable than that of the Kun Qian Hexagram. Previously, when the Kun Qian Hexagram was completed at a rate of 388%, he was rewarded a whopping 40 items.

This time around, he was presented a ground-breaking number of 50 items as a reward. Taking a look at the items, Zhao Yu was pleasantly surprised. There were three Top Grade Device items – the Invisible Hedge Ball!

Wow…

Zhao Yu clasped his hands and bowed in thanks, praising the System. O powerful System, you’re indeed awesome, you’ve awarded me three Balls all at once!

Including what he already had, Zhao Yu now possessed four Invisible Hedge Balls. These were lifesavers, which would no doubt come in handy the next time he was in a bit of a pinch.

In addition to those, his inventory was also replenished with an Invisible Cloak, Invisible Aircraft, and other Level One Devices & Special Device items.

However, the System was often unpredictable, and Zhao Yu had also received other bizarre items such as Invisible Hair Growth Tonic, Invisible Tape, and weirdly enough, even an Invisible Nail Clipper which worked just like a regular nail clipper!

Tut, tut…

Zhao Yu had no time to peruse his inventory; he needed something he could use right now.

However, having searched the entire Device Bar, the only thing that would be vaguely useful was the Invisible Fluoroscopic Device.

If the fluoroscopic qualities of the device could be strengthened, then perhaps it would be able to detect the weakest part of the mountain, so that the people outside would be able to find a way to get him out.

As he was contemplating communication with the outside world, it suddenly occurred to Zhao Yu that the newly accumulated points would suffice in boosting the Signal Amplification Device.

Zhao Yu whipped out the Signal Amplification Device to have a look. As there was no longer anything jamming the signal, he only needed 2000 points to strengthen the device.

After completing the last Adventure, Zhao Yu had been rewarded with 1740 points, which was sufficient. But just as Zhao Yu was getting ready to boost the device, he suddenly remembered something important.

Oh yeah!

He almost forgot. When he saw the masked person speaking to Cui Lizhu, he had first used the Lip-Reading Device, but upon realizing that it could not accurately translate what was being said, he recorded the entire process with an Invisible Video Recorder.

Zhao Yu had kept his eyes on the masked person throughout the entire process, even when he was being viciously attacked by other people.

He really was getting a bit dull. If not for the fact that he saw this Device on the Device Bar, he would have forgotten about it.

Zhao Yu decided to review what he had recorded with the Device.

The recording could only be viewed by him. Unlike the Invisible Sound Recorder, transferring these images to a computer or other platform would require an astronomical amount of Miracle Points, so the recording could be viewed only by him at the moment.

The Invisible Video Recorder had captured what happened perfectly, including the translations made by the Lip-Reading Device.

In the recording, the masked person was asking Cui Lizhu solemnly, “Do you remember where ‘his mom’ is? What are you gonna do if you can’t find ‘his mom’?”

Cui Lizhu muttered something rapidly, as if in a trance or possessed. The masked person smiled and said, “Photo?”

Not long after, Zhao Yu received a blow to the back of his head, changing the angle of the recorder, so nothing else was heard.

Oh?

After replaying it once more, Zhao Yu realized something new. His mom… his mom…

Maybe… this wasn’t a form of address for someone’s mother, but perhaps he was referring to something else altogether?

Just as he came to this realization, Xiao Hang and Cui Lizhu scampered over in his direction, Xiao Hang shouting, “Quick… run! There are so many bombs inside!”

[1] ‘His mom’, pronounced ‘tama’, is meant to be offensive when used in a manner similar to “D*mn it!’ or ‘F*ck!’
