Soul Master Manual

Chapter 15 Beware of Fatty
The collection of books in the Quiet Club is even more exaggerated than Li Changan imagined.

Although the total number of books is not much.

But most of them are very useful, such as:

"Spiritual Beast Illustrated Book (Checking for Leaks and Filling in Blanks)"

"Analysis of Common Spirit Beast Attributes and Attribute Skills"

"Spirit Beast Breeding Manual"

"Battle Data Analysis and Simulated Battle Method"

Dialectics of the Existence of Cat-eared Girls (crossed out)

Cough cough, except for the random entry of the last book which surprised Li Changan a bit, the contents of the rest of the books are quite practical.

It is different from those books in the library of Yangcheng University, which are mainly for exams.

The collection of books in the Tranquility Club is more specialized, and the purpose of analysis is more simple, which is what Li Changan needs at present.

of course.

As a top student in the history of spirit beasts, Li Changan chose an ancient book after hesitating for a long time.

The cover is the leather of some unknown animal, and the paper is yellow. The most important thing is that the characters inside are not the common characters that are popular today, but an ancient language that began at the end of the third era.

The title of this book is "The Dialectic of the Relationship between the Soul Quality of the Imperial Spirit Master and the Spirituality of Spirit Beasts".

He thinks this will allow him to better understand the relationship between the "soul" of the imperial master and the "spirit" of the spirit beast on the "spiritual balance".

It can also allow him to obtain the spiritual feedback from Xiao Huan's improvement to the maximum extent, which will help his own "soul" quality increase, and prepare in advance for subduing more spirit beasts in the future.

After selecting the book, he just read it for a while, and Bai Zhu came to call him.

It's eleven o'clock in the evening.

This was Li Changan's first time participating in the gathering of the Quiet Meeting, so he didn't dare to be negligent, so he put away his books and followed Bai Zhu to a room on the side of the first floor.

inside the room.

Ran Jianyu stood staring at him.

Besides him, there were three other people in the room.

"Here we come." Ran Jianyu gave him a sideways look.

"Ah."

Li Changan held the book and nodded, silently observing the other three people in the room from the corner of his eyes.

pop-

Ran Jianyu clapped his hands, attracting the attention of everyone in the room.

"The captain is not here, and today I will arrange the task as usual."

After a brief pause, she continued: "Although what happened to Sun Yu was an accident, it also sounded a wake-up call for us. His family organization has been settled."

Speaking of Sun Yu, the expressions of the rest of the people in the room were a bit solemn.

"But Sun Yu's vacancy will eventually be filled by someone."

Then Ran Jianyu reached out to Li Changan.

"This is the newly joined Li Changan."

Everyone's eyes fell on him, but no one spoke or expressed anything, they seemed very calm, and accepted his existence in an instant.

"Bai Zhu, you know him."

Then Ran Jianyu began to introduce everyone to Li Changan.

Pointing to a middle-aged man in his 30s leaning on the sofa, with long hair and a studded jacket, who looks like a rock singer.

"He Yongnan, as you can see, a rock musician."

He Yongnan made a "devil's horn" with his hands.

It's a greeting.

Li Changan hesitated for a while, but after thinking about it, he smiled and nodded.

Ran Jianyu pointed to the second person, a man with a bloated figure and a simple and honest smile, who weighed three hundred pounds no matter how he looked at it, he should be a few years older than him.

"Teng Hongrui, nicknamed Fatty, is an otaku with a shy personality."

I just don't know why Ran Jianyu hesitated so much when he said the word "shy".

Teng Hongrui didn't care about being called fat, and his simple and honest smile was a little thicker.

It's just that when he smiled, the whole face was brought together, and the eyes were a little unclear, and there were only two slits.

Li Changan was curious if he saw only half of himself in his eyes?

Of course, Li Changan did not hold any prejudice or rejection against him, and nodded with a friendly smile.

"Finally, Cao Xinsheng, the teacher of Yangcheng No. [-] Middle School."

The middle-aged man who was holding a book without a cover and wearing a pair of black-framed glasses was the last one present.

However, after hearing his name and job, Li Changan's expression became a little weird.

Cao Xinsheng?Middle school teacher?

this name.
"Don't pay attention to such details."

Seeing Li Changan's expression, Cao Xinsheng also understood what he was thinking of, so he couldn't help but smiled helplessly.

"Hahaha—Old Cao's name, it's really strange that your school is willing to keep you."

He Yongnan laughed loudly.

"You sing so badly, doesn't your bar still keep you?"

Cao Xinsheng gave him a sideways glance without showing any weakness, and said slowly.

"Don't say that, Lao Cao's ability is still very strong. Lao He is also capable of singing."

Teng Hongrui on the side became a peacemaker between the two.

The room suddenly became lively.

Ran Jianyu held his forehead helplessly.

Regardless of them, he turned his head and said to Li Changan:

"Originally, you just joined, so I should give you more time to adapt. I also thought about pulling the bamboo into the action group temporarily, but since you are here today, let's skip this link."

"Forehead"

Li Changan was startled.

"Don't worry, I won't arrange tasks beyond your ability." Ran Jianyu reassured.

Li Changan rubbed his hair helplessly, but couldn't refute.

"Are you on summer vacation now?" Ran Jianyu asked.

"Yes."

Yangcheng University has entered the final stage, and perhaps some teachers are still busy. As a teaching assistant, he has nothing to do. At most, he will go back and correct the exam papers.

Ran Jianyu nodded.

"Fat man."

"Huh? Ah, I'm here."

Teng Hongrui, who was appeasing He Yongnan and Cao Xinsheng, responded immediately.

"How about the task I gave you earlier?"

Teng Hongrui didn't answer, but turned to look at Cao Xinsheng on the other side.

Cao Xinsheng pushed his glasses, and stopped arguing with He Yongnan, just said:
"I've learned a little bit about it, but because there is no manpower available for the time being, I can only ask the Public Security Bureau in Ningyuan County to help pay more attention. It shouldn't be a big problem."

Ran Jianyu's forehead.

Ningyuan County?
Li Changan raised his head.

Isn't this his hometown, where uncle and aunt live?

"I remember you are from Ningyuan County, right?" Ran Jianyu looked at Li Changan.

"Ah."

"That's good. I'll leave this task to you and Fatty. It just so happens that you are not busy with work at Yangcheng University. Go to the Ningyuan County Public Security Bureau to find out the situation. After Fatty finishes the matter here, he will go to Ningyuan County to find You." Ran Jianyu explained.

This is a coincidence.

Li Changan was preparing to go back during this time.

But before he could open his mouth, Ran Jianyu turned his head and his expression became serious, his eyes earnestly said:

"Remember, you are only in charge of contacting, and leave the hands-on work to Fatty. Once you have any clues, don't act without authorization. Let you participate in the mission this time to let you understand the way and style of our quiet meeting. It is also to let You have more time to cultivate spirit beasts, you have enough time."

Seeing her being so serious, Li Changan's expression also became serious.

"clear."

To be honest, even if he wanted to do something, he had to have this ability.

He, Li Changan, still cherishes his life.

However, he was given plenty of time, allowing him to have the leisure to cultivate Xiao Huan.

"Later, you will go to Bamboo to get the mission information."

"it is good."

"Fatty?" Ran Jianyu looked at Teng Hongrui again.

I saw Teng Hongrui scratching the back of his head with a silly smile.

"I'm fine. Don't worry, I will take good care of Chang'an."

Li Changan's gaze also swept across several people in the room.

For some reason, he felt that besides Ran Jianyu, Teng Hongrui, the fat man, seemed to be the most reliable in the room.

but.

Why did Bai Zhu, Cao Xinsheng, and He Yongnan all cast "seeking good fortune" in their eyes?
It was in stark contrast to Fatty Teng Hongrui's silly smile.

illusion.

Must be an illusion.

"There are more." Ran Jianyu spoke again.

"Li Chang'an, you study history. If you have time, you can read the history books in the library. In some cases, we need professionals with a certain ability to interpret historical documents."

Professionals who interpret historical documents?
Is this also one of the reasons why Ran Jianyu recruited him?
Li Changan was thoughtful.

He estimated that it should be close to ten.

Seeing that he didn't give an answer right away, Ran Jianyu took out his "killer mace".

"Professionals receive additional allowances."

Hearing this, Li Changan's eyes lit up, and he solemnly said:
"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

Only then did Ran Jianyu nodded in satisfaction.

"Then the meeting is over!"

Just end the meeting and act vigorously.

It's just that she just left the position and walked back.

Under the gaze of everyone, after neatly arranging the slightly irregular materials on the table, he smiled and left satisfied.

Ok?
"Sister Yu has obsessive-compulsive disorder."

After she really left, Bai Zhu whispered to Li Changan.

Why didn't I find out before?
Li Changan was surprised by this.

Speaking of which, these people in the Quiet Meeting seem to have something.

Follow Bai Zhu to get the mission information he was given.

Not much content.

But the statement is clear.

The Public Security Bureau of Ningyuan County received a strange report. A man died strangely at home. After forensic identification, he was burned to death, but the problem was that there was no trace of fire in his home.

After that time, no similar incident happened again, so the case was quickly suppressed.

Then the professionals judged that the case was likely to involve a spirit beast, and the strength of the spirit beast might not be weak, so it was finally handed over to them in the hands of the Tranquility Society.

Therefore, Li Changan's task was to go to Ningyuan County, complete contact with the local security bureau, and investigate as much as possible without alarming others.

In other words, Tranquil Society is a department that handles these "special cases"?

Simultaneously.

There is also a special note in the mission that traces of "instigating" were found at the scene of the crime, so be careful.

If it wasn't for this trace of "instigating", they probably wouldn't have needed Jing Mi to show up.

Instigate?

After scanning the content, Li Changan stared at these two words for a long time.

Will it be connected to the man in black that night?
Did Ran Jianyu have a deeper intention for this arrangement?

This made him have to pay more attention.

"By the way, Zhuzi, what is the relationship between us and the Public Security Bureau? Who has a higher position?"

"Hmm—" Bai Zhu pursed her lips, unable to say anything for a moment.

"To put it another way, what gesture should I use to contact the Public Security Bureau?" Li Changan asked again.

After all, the Public Security Bureau is an organization that maintains public order on the bright side. He doesn't know whether the Quiet Society and the Public Security Bureau are in a subordinate relationship or a cooperative relationship.

"Status?"

After thinking for a while, Bai Zhu said:

"Anyway, just don't embarrass Tranquil Society, and the rest. Sister Yu will cover you."

Don't embarrass Jing Mi?
Li Changan was a little foggy.

"Be careful~~"

When he left, Bai Zhu couldn't help but exhort him.

"I will."

For this, Li Changan cast a grateful look.

Unexpectedly, Bai Zhu rolled his eyes, knowing that Li Changan didn't understand what she meant, so he said angrily:

"I'm not telling you to be careful with tasks, I'm telling you to be careful with fat people."

"what?"
