33: Chapter 33 How is a stethoscope used?

After dinner.

The whole family sat on the sofa in the living room.

The TV screen flickered with cold light, and the Linhai City evening news was broadcasting an emergency report.

The footage cut to the abandoned chemical plant in the south of the city; the cooling tower that originally stood there had been razed to the ground, and the surrounding area was filled with yellow and black police cordon tape.

The anchor looked serious, claiming that this was a series of explosions caused by a severe underground pipeline leak, and that the official Investigation Bureau had fully intervened.

On the sofa, the family of six sat neatly, the atmosphere very eerie.

Su Yao stared at the screen, her expression grave.

She was at the scene and knew that it was not a gas explosion at all, but ruins left behind by a clash between S-rank powerhouses.

Su Chen held a teacup, his face expressionless.

That was his hard work that he had planned for three months, and now it had all turned into bricks and rubble.

Su Jianguo rubbed his lower back and frowned frequently, while Lin Wanqing was peeling an apple unhurriedly with a fruit knife.

Su Qing pulled her black fisherman hat extremely low, sinking her whole body into the sofa cushions, trying to minimize her presence.

Su Yun took a bite of the apple his mother handed him, a crisp crunch breaking the silence of the living room.

He clapped his hands, stood up, and announced that he was going back to his room to review his homework.

Entering the bedroom, closing the door, and locking it.

Time was tight.

It required eight hours of absolute concealment for the metamorphosis to be completed.

Su Yun sat cross-legged on the bed, deep black light flickering in the depths of his eyes.

Foolish Eye activated.

His gaze ignored the obstruction of space, penetrated the walls, and took in the scene of the entire building.

He had to ensure that during these eight hours when he lost consciousness, this group of dangerous people in his family would not cause any fatal trouble.

His gaze first turned to the end of the corridor, Su Qing's room.

Su Qing had already taken off that obstructive fisherman hat.

She was lying on the bed, holding an ice pack, grimacing as she pressed it against the purple bump on her forehead.

While gasping in pain, she talked to herself to the teddy bear doll at the head of the bed.

"Big Brother definitely has a problem."

Su Qing poked the teddy bear's nose indignantly. "That piece of trash without any spiritual energy, why did Chu Youwei die for him? Why did the current Saintess of the Sanctuary personally come down to protect him?"

Her eyes were firm, and she directly reached a conclusion.

"This is definitely a mutated Succubus Physique!"

The more Su Qing analyzed, the more she felt she had grasped the truth of the world.

"This kind of ability is hidden extremely deeply and cannot be scanned by high-level detectors at all. As long as you hear his name or stay with him, you will be passively subjected to hormone radiation, forcibly modifying your favorability threshold."

She rolled over, looked at the ceiling, and her face was extremely tangled.

"With this kind of Physique, my big brother is definitely a walking source of pollution on the street! If not controlled, how many innocent passersby will he harm in the future? Even stray cats and dogs in the park, birds and beasts cannot escape his poisonous hands!"

"As a responsible The Watchers, should I uphold righteousness and exterminate my relatives, and report him directly to headquarters?"

Su Qing rolled twice on the bed with the pillow, rubbing her hair irritably.

"No! No matter how hateful he is, he is still my own brother. If I hand him over, what if he gets captured for slicing and research? But he is really too arrogant!"

Su Yun sat in his room, listening to these outrageous remarks, his mouth twitching fiercely twice.

Succubus Physique? Harming birds and beasts?

This dead girl doesn't study hard, what kind of chaotic waste is in her head!

Just then, the communicator on Su Qing's bedside table suddenly vibrated.

Su Qing shuddered, quickly took away the ice pack, sat up straight, and answered the phone.

"Sister Ye."

Su Qing lowered her voice, her tone ingratiating.

A cold female voice with obvious anger came from the other end of the phone.

"Xiao Qing, did you get water in your brain today?"

The person in charge of the Linhai City The Watchers, Ye Qingqiu, directly cursed while suppressing her anger.

"Why did you go to the city center to kidnap your brother in the street!"

Su Qing shrank her shoulders, unable to say a word of rebuttal.

Ye Qingqiu's voice became colder and colder.

"Do you know how much of a stir your stunt caused? Half an hour ago, the Sanctuary directly bypassed headquarters and slapped a protest letter on my desk. They used extremely strong language, demanding that the organization immediately hand over Dark Blade to accept the trial of the Sanctuary's Heresy Tribunal!"

"That's not all! The Director-General of the official Investigation Bureau just called my private line and slammed the table while cursing. He said you kidnapped civilians in broad daylight and threw people from high altitude in the city center, causing an extremely bad social impact, and ordered us to give the official side an explanation."

Ye Qingqiu sighed, her tone full of deep fatigue.

"Xiao Qing, what kind of living ancestor is your brother? Now that both the black and white worlds are putting pressure on us, the situation of the Linhai branch is already on the verge of being banned."

Ye Qingqiu paused, her tone becoming extremely serious.

"I can't take it anymore. The organization's top management just held an emergency meeting and decided to sacrifice the pawn to save the rook. Xiao Qing, why don't I just expose your real identity. Let the outside world know that it was just you and your brother playing around, so the Sanctuary and the officials will have no reason to continue making trouble."

"No, no, no!"

Su Qing jumped up directly from the bed, her voice completely broken.

She even threw away the ice pack and ran around the room holding the communicator.

"Sister Ye! You are my own sister! Please don't expose me!"

Su Qing was anxious and sweating, speaking incoherently.

"I have been injured for the organization, I have shed blood for the organization!"

"If my parents find out that I am killing Strange Tales outside every day behind their backs, they will definitely break my legs! And if I am exposed, that dead scumbag big brother will definitely make fun of me for this for the rest of his life!"

The other side of the phone was silent for a while.

"I'll give you three days. If you still can't fix it in three days..."

"Just wait to see your middle school ID photo on the front page of the news!"

The phone hung up, and the urgent busy tone echoed in the room.

Su Qing stood blankly by the bed, her face pale, wanting to cry without tears.

Next door room.

Su Yun listened to Su Qing's desperate wailing, feeling extremely comfortable.

Let you pretend to be a hater and cause trouble everywhere every day, now you finally know the dangers of society.

He withdrew his gaze and turned to look downstairs.

On the balcony.

Mother Lin Wanqing was sitting on a rattan chair.

She was holding a communicator with an ancient style, and was exerting mental pressure on the two A-rank bodyguards in the shadow of the flower bed downstairs.

"If you let Xiao Yun have any more problems, you don't have to go back to the Sanctuary, just spend your life on the abyss front line!"

Lin Wanqing's voice was not loud, but it carried the majesty of dominating life and death.

Downstairs, Arbiter Lei Zhen and Arbiter Qin Feng knelt on one knee in the grass, cold sweat soaking their backs, not daring to refute a single word.

Su Yun turned his gaze away and scanned his father's room.

Su Jianguo was lying on the bed, reaching back with his hands, applying bruise medicine to his lower back with extreme difficulty.

"Those old lunatics in the Sanctuary, they really hit hard. I was just trying to mediate a fight, is it necessary to use big moves?"

Old Su was grinning in pain, cursing in his mouth.

Su Yun shook his head helplessly.

Finally, his gaze penetrated the wall and landed on the room on the left.

Eldest brother Su Chen's bedroom.

As the leader of the Salvation Society, he should have been deploying countermeasures to welcome S-rank powerhouses in the encrypted channel tomorrow.

But he didn't.

He was in a ridiculous posture that did not fit the status of a big villain BOSS, with his whole body stuck to the partition wall adjacent to Su Yun's bedroom in a big-character shape.

In his hand, he held a medical stethoscope with precise workmanship.

The metal probe of the stethoscope was pressed tightly against the wall, and the two sound-conducting tubes were firmly inserted into his ears.

Su Chen held his breath, his eyes narrowed slightly, concentrating on capturing even the slightest movement on the opposite side of the wall.

Su Yun sat on the bed, watching this scene, almost laughing out loud.

The dignified leader of the Salvation Society, the notorious S-rank wanted criminal Bai Cang, actually engaging in this kind of simple physical eavesdropping at home?

To find out the details of his little brother, he even used such low-end means.

Su Chen's heart was indeed struggling violently at this moment.

During dinner, Su Yun's remarks about "Bai Cang is a pervert," and that look that pointed to the heart, made him feel a great threat.

He had to confirm whether this little brother had Awakened some kind of Karma investigation ability, or was really colluding with the high-level Sanctuary.

However, there was only deathly silence coming from the stethoscope.

There was no sound at all.

Su Chen frowned, changed the position of the metal probe, and continued to listen intently.

Su Yun sat at the head of the bed, watching the persistent big brother on the other side of the wall, a trace of intense mischief flashed in his eyes.

Since you want to hear it so much, I will satisfy you.

Su Yun cleared his throat.

Recalling his father Su Jianguo's usual speaking habits, he deliberately lowered his voice, imitating the hoarse metallic texture of someone who had experienced the vicissitudes of life.

In the silent room, Su Yun suddenly spoke, talking to himself against the wall.

"Unexpectedly... I, Night Owl, would have a day when I get beaten up."

The voice was low, with three parts self-mockery and seven parts annoyance.

Crossing the wall, it accurately entered Su Chen's stethoscope.

On the other side of the wall.

Su Chen's body stiffened instantly.

His eyes widened, and the sound-conducting tubes inserted in his ears trembled slightly.

Night Owl?!

These two words directly detonated Su Chen's nerves.

His brain went into a momentary crash.

That S-rank legendary Monster Hunter who had traveled through the inner world for more than ten years, known for his brutality and ruthlessness, and specialized in killing high-level Strange Tales?

This was the voice coming from his own incompetent little brother's mouth?

The absurdity of this directly broke through his cognitive defense line.

Before he could digest this explosive information, the voice from the opposite side continued to come.

"It's really bad luck. Wasn't it just that I snatched a monster to fight with that little girl Dark Blade downstairs in my own residential area last night?"

Su Yun deliberately rubbed his lower back, making the voice sound like he was enduring pain.

"Those twelve old immortals in the Sanctuary actually set up a formation to block me at the quarry today, and they hit so hard! My waist!"

The amount of information was staggering.

On the other side of the wall, Su Chen's hand holding the stethoscope tightened, and his nails were deeply embedded in his palm.

He was struck by lightning and was completely stunned in place.

Snatched a monster last night?

Beaten by the twelve Elders of the Sanctuary at the quarry today? And hurt his waist?

Thinking about it carefully, it really makes sense.

Only... Night Owl debuted more than ten years ago.

Could it be that my little brother became an Awakened at the age of four or five and started killing Strange Tales outside?

But this also makes sense.

After all, he Awakened so early, it makes sense that he found out my identity!

It's just why did he test me only now? And after asking about my goal, he didn't say anything else.

Could it be that my little brother saw my achievements in Neon and approved of my approach?

It must be so!

As expected of my, Bai Cang's, little brother.

It seems that I need to find a time to pull my little brother into the great cause of my Salvation Society.

With both of us brothers, two S-rank powerhouses, who in this world is our opponent?

Su Yun looked at Su Chen on the other side of the wall, who had clearly imagined an epic suspense drama, and hooked his mouth with satisfaction.

Using information asymmetry to rub the IQ of the big villain BOSS on the ground, this experience is perfect.

He withdrew his gaze from Foolish Eye.

Pulled black day out of his body.

Instantly, the broken boundary was activated.

The whole room was wrapped in the spatial fault.

The surrounding space began to twist, and purple-black thick fog poured out from his pores, instantly filling the whole room.

Metamorphosis started.

Su Yun closed his eyes, his body wrapped in thick fog, and his consciousness sank into the abyss.

No matter how crazy his family outside imagines, tonight, he just needs to complete the evolution quietly.

Tomorrow's Linhai City is destined to set off an even crazier storm because of his rebirth.
