Chapter 197: 197、Is He Laughing at Us?!（Part 2）

To Lu Shu, his actions previously did give Lu Xiaoyu some doubt . For example, why swap the test tubes back to their original positions when they had already swapped it successfully?

This was because the old man advised them to swap the test tubes, and if the soul puppet was revealed, even if the test tubes were swapped successfully, the old man would know that the soul puppet had something to do with Lu Shu!

If the soul puppet went over right after the old man had just said the test tubes had to be swapped, it would be ridiculous to not be able to draw the link between Lu Shu and the soul puppet .

Lu Shu did not think that the old man would miss this point out . After all, in this world, there was a price to pay for underestimating someone .

So Lu Shu would rather swap the test tube back and ask the old man for help than to reveal the secret of Lu Xiaoyu and him . He did not have the slightest tinge of regret .

As to what will happen after this, Lu Shu had no idea . He could only wait as he had no idea if others would draw a link to him .

The crucial thing was that he had no bullet wound and everyone knew that he was a strength type metahuman .

This time, his identity as a strength type metahuman protected him once more .

This incident gave Lu Shu a warning: to never underestimate heroes of the world .

He was just a high school student and when up against more experienced people, he would be extremely disadvantaged .

If he could do it again, Lu Shu would definitely be more meticulous in his planning and be more careful in the execution .

He had to learn, even if it meant enlisting in a military school . As a common citizen, he had much to learn about battles and strategies as he had almost no contact with such stuff at all .

Unless he was a class B or a class A, he had to make full use of all resources available to him and prepare himself well .

Lu Shu never felt that knowledge was useless . People who thought this way, to him, were the true idiots .

. . .

At this moment, Li Yixiao was already standing at his office . The entire building was cordoned off by the heavenly network and Li Yixiao stood in front of numerous practitioners, frowning .

Someone broke the silence, "There's nothing here, why would anyone break into this place?"

"But we can't eliminate the possibility that although we know that there's nothing here, the other party might not think this way . After all, this is the training ground for daoyuan class . It's likely that outsiders do not know the situation here . " One person analyzed after some thought, "Look, take that class D strength type criminal for example . We might think that his actions were incredibly stupid, apart from robbing the bank, his escape route was not well planned . He avoided the capital and came here instead, thinking that there would be more law enforcers there . This was a huge mistake, but a logical one, as more of us would likely be situated in the capital . He didn't know that most of us would be situated at Luo Cheng instead . This is the result of not having correct information . "

This possibility definitely existed . With the discreet handling of information by the heavenly network, the public and commoners were clueless about many things and it was likely that they might commit stupid mistakes .

Some people might think that they were extremely powerful or even invincible after they awakened! But in truth, there were countless people who were much stronger!

It had to be mentioned that information was especially useful . In today's world, there was not much difference between not having information and being blind .

Someone turned and asked, "Heavenly King Li, is there anything special in your office that might tempt people into breaking in to steal?"

Li Yixiao frowned and pondered for a long time . In actual fact, he was a bold and cautious man, a point which was exemplified during his incident with the spies in the remains . He thought of something suspicious, but he was not really willing to follow up on his suspicions .

But this incident was quite major . The act of breaking into the school was definitely intolerable . Moreover, a guiding principle of the heavenly network was to be in control and not allow any unregulated force or organization to be lurking outside .

Li Yixiao then pointed to the test tube on his table, "Check if there are my thumbprints on this test tube . "

If his thumbprints were not there, it could only mean one thing: Someone swapped the test tubes .

The surrounding people were confused, "Isn't this just a blood sample of a student? Who would break in for no reason just to swap the blood sample?"

Li Yixiao remained collected, "This is just a guess and I have not eliminated the possibility of the other party breaking in purely because this is my office and thinking that there might be some magical instrument or sorts . What you guys mentioned might be correct but hey, there's no harm checking . "

Lu Shu probably did not expect Li Yixiao to be so meticulous and cautious as his usual loud demeanor did seem to suggest otherwise .

Someone came over with gloves and collected the test tube as well as Li Yixiao's fingerprint sample for further testing . Not long after, a message returned: Li Yixiao's fingerprints were present, and they were the sole fingerprints there .

Li Yixiao was relieved . From his heart, he did not want to think that this incident was related to Lu Shu, but only through evidence could he confirm this fact .

He then said merrily, "What a dumb thief . Are there anymore clues? Everyone, come together and let's have a meeting to analyze the situation . "

"Yes . The security guards have video recording devices equipped on them and we have sightings of the perpetrator in the footages . We can take a look," One of the practitioners said, "The only clue we have now is the footages . That metahuman was hit by a bullet, but there doesn't seem to be any trace of blood left behind . We have never seen such a metahuman in our records and have no idea what actually happened . It could likely be a new type of metahuman . "

"Let's go take a look," Li Yixiao led the group to another classroom . The footage was then broadcasted by a visualizer in the classroom .

The footage was short as only the specific encounter was presented . The footage started from the point when the patrolling security guard encountered that black figure all the way until he was knocked out .

Initially, everyone thought that they would be able to see some concrete details such as the appearance of the other party or what he was wearing, but it was all rather underwhelming in the end . His facial features were a blur and it was hard to make anything out . He was also laughing constantly!

As for his clothing… he was not wearing anything at all!

The other party never spoke in the footage and the only words came from the security guard .

"You… you… where are you from, metahuman! Why… why aren't you wearing any clothes!"

"Hands on your head and stand against the wall!"

"You… why are you laughing, stop laughing!"

Everyone was deep in thought . Just then, Li Yixiao sighed suddenly and everyone's gaze was fixated on him, anticipating what his thoughts were .

Li Yixiao then stroked his chin, "yeah, why was he laughing…"

He then broke out in a huge rage, "Was he laughing at us?!"
