Early morning.
Su Xin was conducting business throughout Lening City.
The entire area of Lening City spans thousands of square kiloters, with a population of millions. Just relying on the reputation of the black robe is not enough to suppress cri for long. After a few days of calm, Lening City has returned to its forr chaos.
Under the deep night, many corners of the city hide different evils.
Since acquiring the Directional Correction trait, Su Xin's mobility has greatly improved. Especially after discovering the technique of using tall buildings as relay points for long-distance fixed-point Instant Teleportation, Su Xin treats the entire Lening City as a playground, freely shuttle between different areas of the city at will.
Until two a.m.
After stopping a ho invasion robbery, Su Xin suddenly rembered his promise to Xu Yongshou to eliminate several Celestial Wolf Gang higher-ups. He went to the Celestial Wolf Gang headquarters, and based on Xu Yongshou's list, took so small items from a few offices.
Using the Other-Transformation Superpower, he acquired the real-ti location of targets, and it took less than half an hour to kill all three.
...
Three a.m.
Su Xin appeared next to Tongwa City, inside a twenty-story residential building, finding a well-decorated but unoccupied apartnt.
He locked the door from inside.
After a brief check, water and electricity were intact, and without any surveillance, Su Xin felt at ease to enter the bathroom, showering for over half an hour.
But when he exited the bathroom, he carefully sniffed himself and found the scent still lingered.
"Sure enough, it's not simple. It seems this is indeed a form of special scent weapon."
Su Xin understood.
Yet he wasn't worried.
The worst outco is just having his identity exposed. He's not particularly opposed to it now; he just feels if his identity is discovered so easily, it's like he's one move behind.
This left him sowhat displeased.
In his plan, even if his identity were to be exposed, it should be him leaving clues step by step, the enemies arduously tracing them, after long investigations, eventually uncovering his true identity.
Not this passive exposure.
Su Xin furrowed his brows slightly, thinking things over.
Actually, it would be easy to deal with this scent if he's willing to go to extres, jumping into a sea of fire, getting his body charred would definitely remove any sll.
Anyway, he can perfectly resurrect.
But he wouldn't do sothing so self-destructive.
As for using Life Purification to cleanse the unusual sll, he understands it's unrealistic.
Based on previous tests, Life Purification can only cleanse abnormal states from within, not external abnormalities, like bindings, dirt, or marks on the body.
The scent clinging to his body naturally isn't within the scope of Life Purification, since scent is adhered to the skin's surface.
After thinking for a long ti, Su Xin couldn't co up with a good solution. He didn't want to hide in another place, as that would make him seem too pathetic.
Ultimately, he simply decided to head ho and try to lure the enemy out, killing them all.
Su Xin donned the black robe gear again, wiped away his fingerprints, and Instant Teleported away.
It took him about two minutes to return to Lening City, to the rooftop of a ten-story building, sitting at the edge of the terrace, overlooking below.
It was still shortly past three, the sky remained deeply dark, with the crescent moon obscured by clouds, leaving the world shrouded in gloom.
Su Xin, cloaked in the black robe, sitting atop a ten-story building, was almost invisible, not worrying about being seen.
Observing the cars below was much simpler for Su Xin. After all, during nightti driving, no matter how discreet, headlights must be used, which beco very conspicuous in the dark.
Moreover, at this ti, few cars were on the road, with roughly one car passing every ten minutes on the street below Su Xin.
Su Xin knew, if the enemies could really track him by scent, they would likely search the city extensively through the deep night.
Because, no matter how special the scent, no matter how keen the dog's sense of sll, when dayti cos and people awaken, engaging in various social activities, countless complex scents would surely significantly interfere with their tracking.
Not to ntion dayti traffic jams, making it hard to search the entire city as efficiently as at night.
Overall, dayti tracking efficiency would be ten tis less than nightti.
Indeed, it was as Su Xin expected.
After sitting for over half an hour on the rooftop, he saw a suspicious sedan stop not far from the building, quickly turning off the ignition and lights, with no one getting out for a long ti.
After pondering, Su Xin didn't imdiately go down to kill but continued to wait.
...
"Report, I've tracked to outside Fenglan District, the target seems to be within Fenglan District."
Inside the sedan, a team mber reported in a low voice.
On the other side, Duan Yilin imdiately took out his phone, searched for basic information on Fenglan District, then ordered calmly:
"Stay where you are and don't act rashly, it's still uncertain if the target resides there or went there for sothing else."
"Wait another hour, if the target remains unmoved, then consider further tracking."
"Received!"
After acknowledging, the car fell into silence.
The two people and a dog quietly waited inside.
During this ti, even the tracking dog did not bark carelessly, only occasionally baring its teeth toward Fenglan District under the indication of the rear seat team mber, signifying the target remained in that direction.
Until a certain mont, Su Xin, unable to bear waiting any longer, Instant Teleported to the front of the vehicle, and slit their throats, killing them.
"Too bad, no other support arrived, only killed these two small fry."
Su Xin glanced indifferently at the two people inside the car who slowly stopped convulsing, and left with Instant Teleportation.
After returning ho to take out the stolen laptop, Su Xin teleported back to the rooftop of Fenglan District, walked into the staircase room, sat cross-legged, and placed the laptop on his knees.
Since it was impossible to kill everyone, he decided to mislead the enemies, drawing them all here.
He believed, even if the enemies were unsure he lived here, they would treat here as a key focus of suspicion, likely continuing to dispatch tracking dogs for further investigation.
Unless they directly give up.
After opening the laptop, Su Xin prepared after many days to re-enter the secret forum, finding his account permanently banned.
Even the transit site couldn't be logged into, naturally unable to access the final secret forum.
Su Xin decisively exited the site, closed the browser, cleared browsing history and background processes, then restarted the computer and removed the wireless network card.
Once all this was completed, he opened a local text editing software, starting his routine writing in the dark staircase room.
