Little Lina raised the corners of her lips, patted his shoulder gently with one hand, left a meaningful look, and then walked towards the door.

The harsh chuckle penetrated Hohenheim's eardrums like a steel nail, making the whole room go crazy.

Hohenheim stood there like a sculpture, watching Lena's back getting further and further away.

Hohenheim did nothing until she left the house.

With a "bang", the wooden door was slammed shut, and the whole room suddenly fell into deathly silence.

The sun ended, the clouds thickened, and the room fell into darkness.

On the wall, the hands of the clock turned and made an ironic sound.

Outside the window, the cries of street stalls, the angry shouts of the inspectors, the excuses of innocent passers-by, the rustle of leaves in the wind...

All the noisy sounds poured into the house through the open windows like a rushing river and poured into Hohenheim's ears.

It was as if the whole world had gone crazy.

Until a certain moment, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Then, the whole world instantly became quiet.

"Ha ha."

Gu Qinghan smiled calmly, and time began to flow again.

The laughter only lasted for a moment, and then disappeared without a trace, as if it was worried that it would be heard by ears through the wall.

Gu Qinghan had no expression on his face as he walked to the alchemy table, bent down to pick up the thick gray-black book that was still on the ground, and gently patted the dust on the surface.

This is the book that Lina had just left on the ground.

——"The Secret of Hypnosis"

It is the handwriting of [The Great Hypnotist] Hohenheim. If it is put on the market, it will definitely make people flock to it, and it may even cause a national war.

However, just such a book was placed on the table by Gu Qinghan somewhat casually.

He didn't seem to care about the book.

Then Gu Qinghan looked back at the bookshelf, browsing the books placed on it solemnly, and continued to look for the next book.

After a brief search, his eyes rested on one of the books.

——"The silver-haired dragon girl wants to touch your trophy"

With no expression on his face, Gu Qinghan took it off, took it in his hand, and placed it carefully on the table.

Gu Qinghan takes this book much more seriously than the book on hypnosis just now.

This is an ordinary leisure book. If you just look at the cover, you will definitely be attracted by Long Ji’s big and white dragon horns, and you won’t be able to put it down.

But unfortunately, Gu Qinghan is not such a person.

Gu Qinghan's eyes narrowed, he pinched a corner of the thick book cover with his fingers, and suddenly tore the cover hard.

——呵啦!

The cover depicting the beautiful girl Ryuji was torn at the waist, and the picture of the graceful girl was shattered, revealing the original appearance of the book.

Inside the crack in the cover, the book actually has a second cover.

black.

The mysterious dark color, slightly wrinkled leather material, and the four eye-catching words on its surface make this book of extraordinary significance.

——"The Secret of Hypnosis"

This is the second book on the secrets of hypnosis.

Gu Qinghan couldn't help but laugh, looking at the four big characters on the cover of the book, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This time, he finally didn't have to worry and laughed out loud.

Chapter 39 Exposure

Little Lina stared blankly at the writing in the book and did not move for a long time.

Her eyes were dull, her eyes were scanning faster and faster, and her face was getting paler.

Those scrawled handwritings, every line and every page, are like crawling with ugly eight-legged spiders, making people's hair stand on end.

The content in the book is very detailed.

Almost all her actions in the past two days were predicted with perfect accuracy.

"how can that be……"

Little Lina murmured softly, her pupils trembling.

She held the book in her hand and felt her hands and feet were cold.

Lina thought that she had completely mastered Hohenheim and could play with him as she pleased.

But if the content of this book is true...

Everything she saw was false.

It's all acting.

……

After half an hour.

In the living room, the sound of falling water gradually subsided, and silence filled every space again.

Hohenheim's purge appears to be coming to an end.

After reading "The Mysteries of Hypnosis", little Lina put it on the table and her face gradually became gloomy.

Not long ago, she looked confident of victory, ready to play off Hohenheim's smirk.

But now, that delicate face was stained with a shadow.

She stared at the bathroom door, a moment of hatred flashing in her eyes.

Finally, the wooden door creaked, and the expected figure came out.

Hohenheim pushed open the door and walked out. Sweat mixed with cold water dripped down his neck and fell to the ground, and the damp hair tips were wet.

"finished Wash?"

On the ground, Xiao Lina, who was sitting not far away, suddenly spoke and looked at him with a sneer.

Hohenheim couldn't help but hesitate, a trace of doubt flashed across his expression, and he felt that something was not right about Lina's expression.

He held a towel in his hand, put it on his shoulder, and nodded slightly.

"kindness."

"That's good."

Little Lina changed her posture and gently propped up her chin with one hand, still maintaining an unpredictable smile.

"When you were taking a shower just now, I seemed to hear a strange noise. I thought you were secretly doing something in the bathroom."

"You shouldn't be secretly doing something weird behind my back, right?"

A meaningful smile formed on the corners of Lina's lips.

Hohenheim couldn't help but be startled, looking at little Lina, frowning slightly.

"I've never done anything like this."

He said heavily, his voice a little hoarse.

Little Lina paused, a cunning glint flashed in her eyes for a moment, and then she nodded slightly.

"Is it."

She smiled lightly, and then slowly said:

"Actually, when you were cleaning your body just now, I secretly gave you an instruction."

"I command you to take a sip of my bath water."

"And you didn't do such a thing and obey my instructions?"

Having said this, Little Lina paused deliberately, then put on a calm smile and looked at Hohenheim with squinted eyes.

Hohenheim's eyes flashed dull, then he came back to his senses, and his expression became serious.

His eyes were sharp, like a sharp knife, staring at Little Lina's unpredictable smile, his brows furrowed.

Little Lina's state at this time was completely different from just now.

Half an hour ago, she was still in a state of pleasure.

But now, it has become incomprehensible in the blink of an eye.

Hohenheim sighed slowly and smiled wryly.

"Well, I did."

There was a flash of embarrassment in his eyes, then he spread his hands helplessly and replied unhurriedly:

"When I was taking a shower just now, I accidentally choked on a mouthful of water."

"But I thought it was just an accident. I didn't expect it to be your bad taste."

Hohenheim snorted coldly, with a sarcastic look in his eyes.

"So, you still took a sip of bath water by accident?"

Hohenheim's eyes flickered and he remained silent without speaking.

He showed no expression and chose to refuse to answer Lina's question.

Little Lina smiled and nodded, as if she had expected Hohenheim to have this reaction.

"very good."

Little Lina stood up slowly, glanced at every corner of the house, and took a leisurely walk.

"Now I understand what happened in the past two days."

She looked back with a smile, looking at the densely packed alchemy equipment on the alchemy table, and stretched out her fingers to touch the surface with gentle movements.

The fingertips passed by one after another, and each time they gently touched, they happened to touch some special instruments.

Small stoves, test tubes, and certain precision utensils.

All are necessary props for refining [Soul Hypnosis Potion].

What's even more coincidental is that these appliances happened to be the same ones that Hohenheim had used not long ago.

"Before I confess, I have to tell you one more thing."

"What I just said to you was just a joke."

At this point, the curve of Little Lina's lips suddenly raised, and the evil smile on her face became more wanton.

Hohenheim was stunned in place, not understanding the meaning of her words for a moment.

"I didn't order you to do this."

"And you answered me that you did."

"Is that right?"

Hohenheim was startled at first, and then his pupils trembled slightly.

A gust of cold wind blew through, raising the black curtains in the house.Outside the window, the leaves on the street were rustling, which sounded particularly noisy.

Hohenheim's eyes were cold and he stared at the expression on Lina's face quietly, without speaking for a long time.

If what Lena said was true, then the conversation just now was just to test Hohenheim.

The two people looked at each other, and there seemed to be lightning and flint at the intersection of their eyes.

The originally calm atmosphere in the room suddenly became tense.

"Mr. Hohenheim, you don't seem to be under my hypnotic control."

"Why exactly?"
