In the living room, once the bedroom door of the two elders closed, only Li Fan and Liang Xiaohui were left.
The awkward atmosphere lasted less than three seconds.
“Pfft hahaha… I can’t take it anymore, I’m dying of laughter…”
Liang Xiaohui finally couldn’t hold it in. She clutched her stomach and rolled around on the sofa laughing, chips scattering all over the floor.
“You went on a blind date and sent the girl into detention, Li Fan, you’re truly a genius! First in history! Hahaha…”
She laughed so hard she was out of breath, pointing at him.
Li Fan’s face was already dark, and now it looked like ink could drip from it.
Old grudges and new ones surged up at once.
First she sprayed cola on him, and now she was still laughing?
“Liang Xiaohui, are you asking for trouble?” Li Fan squeezed the words out through his teeth.
“Oh? Getting angry?” Not only was Liang Xiaohui not afraid, she laughed even harder. She climbed off the sofa and pinched her voice, mimicking Zhang Xue’s tone. “Oh my, Officer Li has such authority. I’m so scared~”
A cold glint flashed in Li Fan’s eyes. He stopped wasting words and suddenly stood up.
Seeing something was wrong, Liang Xiaohui let out a shriek and turned to run toward her room.
But how could she be faster than Li Fan now?
With a quick step forward, Li Fan extended his arm and easily hooked it around her neck from behind, locking her in place. Of course, he didn’t use force, just restrained her.
“Ah! What are you doing? Let go of me!” Liang Xiaohui kicked her short legs wildly in midair like a cat grabbed by the scruff, screaming, “Murder! My nephew is murdering his aunt!”
“Go ahead and scream. Even if you scream your lungs out, no one’s coming!” Li Fan dragged her back to the sofa, pinned her down, and with his other hand reached out like a claw, rubbing her delicate doll-like cheeks. “I’ll teach you to laugh. I’ll teach you to spray cola on me. I’ll teach you to mimic people!”
“Wuwuwu… I was wrong, I was wrong! I won’t dare again! Bro, I was wrong!” Liang Xiaohui’s face was kneaded into all sorts of shapes as she begged unclearly.
“Calling me Dad wouldn’t help!”
“Help! Sis! Brother-in-law! Your son has gone crazy!”
The commotion was so loud that a muffled roar of annoyance came from behind the master bedroom door. Liang Ailan shouted, “It’s the middle of the night! Quiet down! If you make any more noise, both of you can sleep on the street!”
Only then did Li Fan release her, snorting in satisfaction.
With messy hair and flushed cheeks, Liang Xiaohui shot him a fierce glare, scrambled up, and ran back into her room, slamming the door shut.
Watching her flee in defeat, Li Fan felt delighted. Whistling, he grabbed his change of clothes and walked into the bathroom.
Inside her room, Liang Xiaohui flopped onto the bed, still panting.
Rubbing her warm, abused cheeks, she recalled how easily Li Fan had subdued her. Something felt off.
That brat seemed much stronger. Faster too. She hadn’t even had a chance to react.
And… his temperament seemed different.
He used to joke and play around, but it was always the spirited energy of a young man. Today, especially when he was talking about the case, there had been a steadiness and sharpness that didn’t belong to a fresh graduate intern.
She pouted, rolled over, hugged her pillow, and drifted off to sleep.
In the bathroom, warm water flowed over Li Fan’s body, washing away the fatigue of the day.
Closing his eyes, he focused his thoughts and sank his consciousness into the system in his mind.
[Points: 5300!]
Seeing that number, Li Fan’s heart pounded wildly.
He was rich!
“System, lottery draw!”
[Ding! Lottery system activated. Each draw consumes 100 points. Host can draw 5 times, 50 winning opportunities. Begin?]
“Begin! Use them all!”
Li Fan didn’t hesitate. What was the point of hoarding points?
[Ding! Congratulations, Host obtained: Strength +0.1!]
[Ding! Congratulations, Host obtained: Speed +0.1!]
[Ding! Congratulations, Host obtained: Identity Recognition Radar range +1 meter!]
[Ding! Congratulations, Host obtained: Strength +0.1!]
…
A series of system notifications rang in his mind like rapid-fire messages.
He felt warm currents wash through his body again and again. Every muscle, every nerve, was undergoing subtle but powerful changes.
[Ding! Thank you for participating. Better luck next time!]
Li Fan curled his lips. So that existed too.
Luckily, the probability seemed low.
Out of more than forty draws so far, it had only appeared once.
Thank goodness.
Three chances left.
“Continue!”
[Ding! Congratulations, Host obtained: Speed +0.1!]
[Ding! Congratulations, Host obtained: Strength +0.1!]
Only one chance left.
Li Fan took a deep breath and silently prayed, “Give me something big. Something big.”
As if hearing his prayer, the system’s notification tone changed.
[Ding! Congratulations, Host triggered the Golden Grand Prize!] Visit g.com for the full chapter.
A brilliant golden light exploded in his mind.
[Congratulations, Host obtained special skill: Little Li Flying Cards!]
[Little Li Flying Cards: Supreme card-throwing technique. Never misses. Any card-type object can be used as a weapon. Within 20 meters, whatever you aim at will be struck with absolute precision!]
Li Fan’s eyes widened instantly as ecstasy flooded him.
Little Li Flying Cards?
Why not Little Li Flying Knives?
But after reading the skill description, he grew even more excited.
This was practically tailor-made for him.
As a police officer, he couldn’t casually use a gun, and he didn’t even qualify to carry one yet.
Facing knife-wielding criminals empty-handed was dangerous.
With this skill, an ID card, a bank card, even a playing card could become a lethal weapon in his hand.
Suppressing his excitement, Li Fan immediately opened his personal panel.
[Name: Li Fan]
[Age: 22]
[Height: 183 cm]
[Strength: 31.5 (Average person: 10)]
[Speed: 31.5 (Average person: 10)]
[Position: Intern Police Officer, Huli Police Station, Xiamen City]
[Rank: None (Intern Police Officer)]
[Skills: Identity Recognition Radar (28 meters), Little Li Flying Cards (20 meters), Photographic Memory.]
[Points: 300.]
Looking at the refreshed stats panel, Li Fan nodded in satisfaction.
Both strength and speed had surpassed 30, more than triple that of an average person.
The radar range had expanded to 28 meters, allowing him to anticipate almost all danger in complex environments.
And with the divine skill “Little Li Flying Cards,” his combat ability was on an entirely different level from earlier that day.
Though his points were nearly drained, the gains were immense. It was absolutely worth it.
Turning off the shower and drying himself, Li Fan felt refreshed and full of inexhaustible energy.
He returned to his bedroom, lay down on the bed, and fell asleep almost instantly.
