Chapter 724: Chapter 722 Chan Ming_1 Chapter 724: Chapter 722 Chan Ming_1 Look, this is what you call professionalism!
Happy times are always fleeting. After enjoying a quiet journey, the destination arrived all too soon.
Watching the Yasui Group elites skillfully take turns to diminish their own suspicions, Fu Qian couldn’t help but click his tongue in admiration.
In contrast, the brother assigned by the Night Watchmen, upon confirming that Su Gao and himself got off the train, seemed to have directly chosen to return to the city in the opposite direction.
The reason for this discrepancy, in Fu Qian’s understanding, was that Lego had the brother follow him to ensure he was really out playing and not running away again. Once confirmed, the purpose had been achieved.
At most, he would simply ask the local Night Watchmen or police to keep an eye out.
After all, according to previous experience, a small team leader among the Night Watchmen only had a few hands under him.
In the end, it still came down to the gap in organizational status between Lego and Carlos.
“Mr. Darcy, are you heading straight to the Mist Society Temple?”
Of course, the most persistent were the two individuals with their obsessions.
“Yes.”
Seeing Kagetsu Kana coming up to ask, Fu Qian nodded his head.
“That’s such a coincidence, we’re heading there too. I’ve checked the information; it’s not far from here, and we can walk there.”
Of course, it’s a coincidence. Even if I said I’d rest before going, you would still insist on going immediately.
“Great, then let’s get going.”
Fu Qian wasn’t so intolerant as to be bothered by such a small episode. He readily agreed and gestured for Kana and her companion to lead the way.
…
The legendary Mist Society Temple was indeed not far from the train station.
Although its location was a bit secluded, given the throngs of pleasure-seekers, the narrow path in front of the temple had been smoothed out by countless footsteps.
The weather was still good, and there were quite a number of people in the temple.
Without needing to look at a map and simply following the crowd, Fu Qian soon spotted the familiar stone in one of the side halls.
Surprisingly, although there were clearly several Transcendents guarding the area, touching the stone was actually free of charge.
The only requirement was to wash one’s hands in the spring water flowing in front of the building before touching it.
“Aren’t there too many people here?”
Looking at the excessively long and winding queue in front of the hall, even Brother Takagi couldn’t help but express his amazement.
“It’s not strange. Having a sense of self-identity is a basic psychological need. Why else would there be so many personality tests?”
Fu Qian spoke casually, not bothering to queue up himself. He started strolling around on his own, observing the toad statue’s responses.
It’s truly a bit magical!
After observing for a while, Fu Qian thought that the infamous reputation of the legend did have its peculiarities.
Less than one-fifth of the men and women who stepped forward to test were able to trigger that kind of buzzing sound.
Not only was the proportion low, but even among those who did trigger the sound, he couldn’t sense any transcendental aura from them.
They all seemed like normal people just looking for fun, and Old Master Yasui was doing a good job tidying things up over there!
“Mr. Darcy, you won’t be able to touch it if you don’t queue up.”
Just then, Kana, having already joined the queue with Takagi, called out to Fu Qian and Su Gao with a smile.
She seemed to have grown quite a bit. If this were the past, Kana would probably have used her charm to find every possible way to skip the line, right?
Fu Qian thought to himself.
Of course, even if she had cut in line, for Kana, that wouldn’t have been the goal. The goal was to use her charm.
Just like now.
Looking at Kana’s impeccable smile, Fu Qian heard Su Gao sigh beside him.
It was clear she felt the same as him, sensing the increasingly apparent anomaly in Kana.
The Beauty 9527 Plan was far from over.
His reactions and performance seemed to trigger some sort of instinct for conquest.
Even with growth, it had become more high-end and targeted.
“Forget it, I don’t like queuing.”
Fu Qian waved his hand, and in just a few seconds, he gave up his purpose for the trip with a nonchalant air.
“Do you want to give it a try?”
Then he turned his head to look at Su Gao, asking in an inquisitive tone.
No need.
Su Gao glanced and shook his head as well.
“I’ll probably get no reaction if I touch it.”
“Well, it seems we’re lucky to have met those two, otherwise, we would have made a trip for nothing.”
Fu Qian wasn’t insistent and turned his head, smiling at Kagetsu Kana.
“We’ll just stay here and watch your performance.”
“Alright then.”
Unexpectedly, Fu Qian’s and his companion’s attitudes were so in sync that Kagetsu Kana was slightly stunned at first, then she agreed and even made a point of flipping her delicate palm at Su Gao.
“Violetta, young people should be brave to try.”
This impeccable demeanor drew glances from the surrounding crowd, with Takagi looking dazzled.
Of course, compared to her previous self, she had become more restrained.
“Here, take a seat.”
Fu Qian casually cleared a spot for Su Gao, who sat down with a polite thank you, and the two quickly became spectators.
Fu Qian indeed disliked queuing, but that wasn’t the main reason he avoided the test.
One of the purposes of this trip was indeed his curiosity about the notorious running essence, wanting to observe it at close quarters.
But in essence, it was enough to watch from the side.
Fu Qian did not think that if he went up and pressed it, he would get any particularly unusual reactions.
Such things, the Night Watchmen, must have tested it more than once or twice; if there were any strange behaviors, it definitely wouldn’t be promoted this smoothly.
Meanwhile, being a spectator also favored another goal–persistently provoking animosity.
In the eyes of Yasui Corp, his behavior at the moment was clearly that of a Siren Group minion, with a Fourth Phase peak powerhouse lurking behind, arriving at this sensitive place at a critical time with an ill intent.
Under such circumstances, quietly observing without action, this abnormal behavior would undoubtedly exert greater pressure.
This was also the experience drawn from the last mission, deciding to draw the snake out of its hole, he had to make use of every condition and see it through to the end–there might even be something bigger behind it.
…
Next, Fu Qian and Su Gao fully performed their duties as an audience, casually chatting while watching one young person after another wash their hands and step forward with either anticipation or nervousness.
At the same time, Fu Qian noticed that for every tester who made a sound, the official notary personnel would seriously present a badge.
The badges were exquisitely crafted, apparently of great value, and even had different designs according to the loudness of the sound, easily reminiscent of rankings like “Doctor” or “Emperor.”
Yasui Corp really knew how to make things happen, indeed spending a fortune to stir people’s hearts.
As time passed by, Kagetsu Kana, who had attracted many eyes on her way up, finally stood in front of the Human-Faced Toad.

And under the gaze of everyone, she bit her lip and gently pressed her hand against it.
The next moment, a harsh croaking noise emanated.
It was definitely the most exaggerated sound since Fu Qian had taken his seat.
“Mr. Darcy.”
After a moment of astonishment, Kagetsu Kana’s first response was to look towards Fu Qian.
