Lu Yibei ended up going to the Peach Blossom Road Police Station.
Uncle Police are not so easy to fool; they won't really think he has nothing to do with Professor Ma just because of a few trash words.
However, he was willing to risk damaging his reputation and being labeled a 'copper refining sorcerer' apprentice to pick him up, mainly because Professor Ma had also lowered his old face many times before to get him out of the police station.
When being a person, one should know how to be grateful!
"Uncle Police, I really didn't know Professor Ma had such a hobby. If I had known earlier, I would have been the first to send him in. For this kind of behavior, I generally recommend severe punishment without leniency."
The Officer in charge of registration looked at Lu Yibei for a moment, then frowned and said, "Fill out this form, and you can go over there and pick him up."
"Uncle Police, are you really letting him go ➤ NоvеⅠight ➤ (Read more on our source) so easily?" Lu Yibei pressed, "What if after he leaves, he doesn't repent and extends his devil's claws towards the flowers of the motherland again?"
It wasn't that Lu Yibei really wanted the elderly Professor Ma to suffer imprisonment, but after seeing the student who died in the urban legend incident at Tangcheng University this morning, he suddenly realized that Tang City is currently in turmoil and definitely not a safe place for ordinary people.
He couldn't guarantee the safety of every ordinary person in this situation, but he could at least find a way to ensure Professor Ma's safety.
However, with Professor Ma's stubborn temper, it would be far from easy to get him to leave Tang City obediently. Keeping him by his side before dealing with the potential killer who could appear at any time would likely be even more dangerous. The only way was to find a way to create a situation where he had no choice but to leave.
"Things have been clarified, it was all a misunderstanding. The Little Girl's family has already forgiven him," the Officer explained.
"Not investigate further? As far as I know, he's been doing this kind of thing for some years now."
"..."
What's wrong with this guy? I think your Teacher isn't Professor Ma but Lawyer Zhang, right? Do you have to turn an innocent release into a three-year sentence to be happy?
The Officer remained silent, took the form Lu Yibei handed him, and immediately got up and walked towards the office inside.
...
Lu Yibei waited at the police station entrance for about ten minutes before Professor Ma slowly walked out.
As Lu Yibei stepped forward to greet him, he saw Professor Ma say to him with a serious expression, "Lu Yibei, you must keep this matter hidden for me. Don't let anyone in the project team know."
"If the people in the project team know, it's hard to guarantee that Old man Hou Jun won't know. If Old man Hou Jun knows, your teacher's wife will definitely know. If your teacher's wife knows, I'm finished."
"Also, accompany me to the toy city later."
Lu Yibei was stunned for a moment and asked, "What are you going there for?"
Professor Ma said seriously, "Of course, to buy some toys and send them to the Little Girl!"
"Holy crap! No way, Professor?!" Lu Yibei exclaimed, "If the tough approach doesn't work, you want to bribe her? You're determined not to let that Little Girl go, are you?"
"How about you just let her go? At night, just look at me."
To save the Little Girl, I am willing to make a sacrifice...
As he spoke, he couldn't help but imagine the scene of Professor Ma holding a brand new toy and saying to the Little Girl, "Come here, Grandpa will show you a treasure!"
This behavior couldn't help but remind him of a "famous quote" with highly distorted values - I am willing to exchange my three years of imprisonment for a lifetime of shadow for you.
Too ♦ despicable, even the most hardcore 'copper refining sorcerer' is nothing more than this.
To associate with such a person, we feel unbearable shame and indignation!
"Forget it, don't look at me either," Lu Yibei said indignantly, "You're not worthy!"
"You rascal! Don't you know what kind of person I am?" Professor Ma slapped the back of Lu Yibei's head, "This matter is clearly a misunderstanding."
"Although the Little Girl's parents generously forgave me, I still scared the Little Girl after all. I can't just pretend nothing happened, right? What's more, we are acquaintances."
"Acquaintances?" Lu Yibei tilted his head.
Understood, got it. Isn't this kind of thing usually done by acquaintances?
"That Little Girl's Grandpa is the Mr. who read my fortune at the airport before! You've met him," Professor Ma explained.
Liu Banxian's granddaughter? Lu Yibei was startled and asked doubtfully, "Since you already knew each other, why were you still taken to the police station? You didn't really do anything excessive, did you?"
"This..." An awkward smile appeared on Professor Ma's old face, "He heard his granddaughter was being bullied, rushed out and beat me silly with a few broom sweeps. It wasn't until I got to the police station that I realized what happened."
Lu Yibei, "..." The world has changed. It's not Liu Banxian hitting people anymore, but it's his turn to hit others.
"That's how things are. I think it's still necessary for me to personally visit and apologize," Professor Ma said.
Lu Yibei pondered for a few seconds, then nodded, reluctantly agreeing with Professor Ma's explanation.
Complaints are complaints, but he was still very clear that Professor Ma couldn't possibly do anything bad to the Little Girl.
However...
After understanding the whole story, a little deduction would reveal that it was most likely that naughty kid causing trouble.
That naughty kid still wants toys? You're dreaming! freёweɓnovel.com
"Professor, I don't think going to the toy city is appropriate."
"Oh?" Professor Ma frowned, thought for a moment, and said seriously, "I understand. It seems children nowadays don't like toys anymore? But I don't know much about electronic products and such. How about you help me pick?"
"..."
Professor, you are simply too kind. They just tricked you into the police station, and you turn around and want to give her electronic products?
Lu Yibei muttered inwardly, then said seriously, "Professor, can you give her something that suits your status? You are an educator; how can you give her things that indulge in play and lose ambition?"
"Leave this matter to me!"
The New Year is almost here. Let her be immersed in the ocean of knowledge and unable to extricate herself even on New Year's Eve. I guarantee she will smile very happily! Lu Yibei thought.
"That's great!" Professor Ma nodded, "You're right, this kind of thing is more reliable when handled by you young people."
So, an hour later, Lu Yibei and Professor Ma appeared on Taohua Road Antique Street, carrying a bundle of elementary school exercise books and two receipts for extracurricular interest classes.
...
As they walked towards the Chunfeng Residence, Lu Yibei instructed Professor Ma, "Professor, after we go in later, just keep praising their child for being smart, having strong learning ability, and definitely being able to get into a key university in the future."
"As for that stupid and bad little brat, just leave him for me to handle."
Who doesn't like others praising their child? What's more, the speaker is an Old man Professor. This'soul-bewitching soup' must be poured generously.
Why does it feel like he's not going to apologize, but to bully the Little Girl? Professor Ma was a bit confused and looked at Lu Yibei doubtfully, "Learning is a good thing, why make it so complicated?"
Nowadays, without some tricks, how many people are willing to study obediently... Lu Yibei muttered inwardly and explained, "You don't understand. Parents today spoil their children too much. They must first be made to realize the importance of learning before the child will study obediently."
Professor Ma nodded and said no more.
As an educator, he has indeed seen many children whose talents were wasted over the years due to parental indulgence.
Every time he thinks of it, he feels heartbroken.

Meanwhile, on Gu Wan Street, at Chunfeng Residence.
Ju Meng had a sugar-coated hawthorn skewer in her mouth, her legs crossed, leaning on the chaise lounge, holding a game console with both hands and staring intently.
Liu Banxian, who was sitting cross-legged on a cushion nearby, continuously used Spiritual Energy to impact the "Fetal gas" in his abdomen according to Ju Meng's guidance, accelerating the digestion process.
Just then, there was a sudden knock on the door.
"Knock knock knock -- knock knock knock --!"
"Hello, I am Ma Zhen. I apologize for the offense just now. I have come specifically to visit and apologize."
The two almost simultaneously looked at each other and exchanged glances.
"Why is that guy here again? He squatted at the police station for over an hour and still didn't suffer?" Ju Meng muttered softly, "Are you sure you checked clearly that he's just an ordinary person and has nothing to do with last night's attack?"
"Your subordinate is sure he checked clearly," Liu Banxian nodded with a look of certainty, "I've been in the Jianghu for so many years and still have some connections. He and Lan Sheng are just old acquaintances, and their communication only involved antiques, not the scope of Spiritual Energy."
"Furthermore, I had an interaction with him at the airport. I read a divination for him and didn't find any abnormalities."
Except for being extremely unlucky, always on the verge of death, yet somehow unable to die... Liu Banxian added in his mind.
"..." Ju Meng pondered for a few seconds, then nodded, "Then go and bring him in. I'll hide in the secret room first. I want to see what he's really up to!"
Warm reminder: The Website is about to be revised, which may cause reading progress to be lost. Please save your "book shelf" and "reading record" in time (screenshots are recommended for saving). We apologize for any inconvenience caused!
"Although this is an excellent hiding place, there are many people and eyes, and people coming in and out is not ideal. This time, it's best to solve the matter in one go to avoid further complications."
"Understood."
Liu Banxian responded, and the two split up. He went forward to open the door for Professor Ma, while Ju Meng quickly headed towards the secret room hidden behind the main hall.
However...
"Ow!"
She had only walked a few steps when she heard a cry of pain from behind. Turning her head, she saw Liu Banxian leaning against the wall, his expression pained.
"What's wrong with you now?" Ju Meng asked impatiently.
Liu Banxian looked down at his highly swollen belly and said bitterly, "This subordinate has no experience handling such matters. I accidentally twisted my waist when getting up, but it's fine. Adult, there's no need to worry."
"..." Ju Meng rubbed her forehead. "Didn't I tell you? You need to use one hand like this and one hand like this... to protect your belly so you don't disturb the fetal energy."
As she spoke, she supported her lower back with one hand and held her belly with the other, demonstrating to Liu Banxian.
She would definitely be a good mother in the future... Watching Ju Meng demonstrate in a proper manner, a thought that was greatly disrespectful to the gods inexplicably flashed through Liu Banxian's mind.
----
After knocking on the door, Professor Ma and Lu Yibei stopped in front of the Chunfeng Residence.
While waiting, Lu Yibei couldn't help but ask, "Professor, is that Little Girl really that cute?"
"Of course, just as the poem says, 'Hair covers a broad forehead, both ears are like connected jade. Tomorrow, she will arrange her hair at the dressing table, her dark eyebrows like swept traces. Rich crimson extends her red lips, her yellow lips are radiant and bright. Her sweet words are like linked chains, her quick temper gathers brightly...'"
Professor Ma murmured the poem with an intoxicated expression. Lu Yibei looked at his enraptured appearance and felt increasingly uneasy the more he listened. He quickly interrupted, "Wait, Professor!"
"Isn't that a poem someone wrote about their own daughter? Isn't it inappropriate for you to recite it?"
Although Lu Yibei knew that Professor Ma's praise was an involuntary outburst of admiration born of affection, others wouldn't know that!
Too much is as bad as not enough. It was precisely because of this that the Old man was knocked down and taken to the police station. Lu Yibei thought.
At this moment, the door of the Chunfeng Residence opened with a 'creak'. Seeing Liu Banxian walk out from behind the door, Lu Yibei was stunned and widened his eyes.
His belly...
Good heavens, it must be seven or eight months already?
While Lu Yibei was complaining inwardly, Professor Ma stepped forward and cupped his hands towards Liu Banxian. "Elder brother, I'm back again. I was very offensive just now and startled your granddaughter. I've come to apologize."
Liu Banxian supported his belly, remained silent for a few seconds, and nodded calmly. "Come in and sit. I'll make tea for you two."
----
On the other side, Ju Meng was hidden in the secret room separated from the main hall by a wall.
After hearing footsteps coming from the main hall, she pressed pause, put away her game console, pricked up her ears, and leaned against the wall, listening carefully.
Liu Banxian and Professor Ma, one a con man who had been in the world for many years, and the other who had worked in the education industry for a long time, were both shrewd individuals. They were very smooth in their dealings and communicated like playing Tai Chi, pushing and yielding, being very polite.
Aside from praising her as cute, beautiful, intelligent, quick-witted, and brave, and saying that if she studied hard, she would definitely achieve great things in the future, Ju Meng didn't hear anything useful.
Do you two Old men need to tell me that?
I already knew this five thousand years ago!
Ju Meng thought smugly, puffing out her meager chest. Just then, a familiar voice entered her ears.
"This... Grandpa Liu? That's not how you should say it. To put it bluntly, children nowadays have deep thoughts! Not educating them properly won't do."
It's Lu Yibei? Why did he come here? Ju Meng's eyes lit up, and she quickly extended her Spiritual Energy outwards to probe. After confirming that the person in the main hall was indeed Lu Yibei, she was overjoyed.
Immediately after, she waved her hand to dispel the barrier and jogged towards the main hall.
----
Inside the main hall.
Lu Yibei was still unaware that a big trouble was quietly approaching and was still rambling on, trying to brainwash Liu Banxian.
"...Not long ago, someone won first prize in some piano competition, and the mayor personally presented the award! Why don't you also send your granddaughter to learn the piano?" Lu Yibei said.
"I heard that playing the piano can cultivate one's character and calm down active children. If you let her learn, maybe she'll cause you less trouble in the future!"
"No need, right? She might not be interested," Liu Banxian said perfunctorily.
"It doesn't matter if she's not interested! Children's wishes don't count as wishes, what do they understand?" Lu Yibei said.
"Look, our Professor has enrolled your granddaughter in the best children's piano class in all of Tang City. It's not bad to give it a try!"
"This..." Liu Banxian hesitated slightly.
If it were his own child, he would have definitely accepted the other party's kindness.
But the one inside is not a real child, she is a great god!
Who can control her will?
"Black hair regrets not studying diligently early, white hair regrets reading late. As for children, don't spoil her. Letting her learn more things is always a good thing, right?"
"Yes, yes, that's right. Then I'll accept it," Liu Banxian said affirmatively, only wanting to quickly deal with Lu Yibei and send them away to avoid further entanglement.
"Wait, don't rush!" Lu Yibei interrupted. "Children are also people, and we have to respect their wishes, right? What if she really doesn't like learning the piano?"
Liu Banxian looked at Lu Yibei in confusion, frowning. "What do you mean?"
"What I mean is, we should give her more choices, shouldn't we?" Lu Yibei said, spreading out a thick stack of enrollment brochures on the table. "Look, this is for learning the guzheng, this is for learning painting, this is for learning children's programming, this is for Olympiad math, this is for Latin dance, this is for ballet..."
"We've already made arrangements for all of these. Within a month, you can take your granddaughter to try out all the classes. If she likes or is good at any of them, just tell the people at the art center, and we'll pay the tuition. Oh, and there's this too..."
"Bang!"
Lu Yibei placed a thick stack of over ten elementary school exercise books on the table. "These are all exercise books carefully selected by Professor Ma. As long as she does all of them, I guarantee she'll get first place every time next semester. Then you'll have something to be proud of when you go to the parent-teacher meeting, right?"
"And also..."
Liu Banxian was stunned by Lu Yibei's outrageous behavior. Just as Lu Yibei was about to say something else to him, a series of light footsteps came from behind the screen.
"Da da da!" ƒгeewebnovёl.com
Immediately after, they heard a sweet, childlike call.
"Lu Yibei, hug me!"
Professor Ma, "???"
While he was stunned, he saw the Little Girl running in from outside the door. She was so small, like a white cloud in the sky, floating lightly and gracefully. She made a face at him and ran straight towards Lu Yibei.
Professor Ma turned his head to look at Lu Yibei, his expression instantly becoming strange.
What's going on? Why does that Little Cute know Lu Yibei?
Hearing the call, Lu Yibei turned around in astonishment. Seeing the Little Girl, he was momentarily stunned, still wondering when he had met her, when he saw her jump up and pounce towards him.
What are you doing? Trying to stage an accident? You have to wait until New Year's Eve to stage an accident!
With a thought, Lu Yibei used his movement technique to try and dodge the Little Girl's hug. However, at this moment, he suddenly realized that the Little Girl's movements were surprisingly fast, even vaguely leaving a trail of afterimages.
He couldn't dodge in time. By the time he came back to his senses, the Little Girl had already jumped up and hugged his head like a facehugger.
"Where is it! Where is it! Take it out for me to play with. You must have that fun stuff on you like before, right?"
As she spoke, Ju Meng's hands went everywhere, searching Lu Yibei's body without any hesitation, even unzipping his clothes and unbuckling his belt.
"..."
Watching a delicate and lovely loli riding on Lu Yibei's body, looking unsatisfied, Liu Banxian and Professor Ma fell silent for a moment, then cursed in unison in their hearts.
Heh—tui! Shameless! Not a human!
Lu Yibei, "..." Damn it, I actually lost to a child? No way, she's from the 20s, I can't beat her!
