Chapter 395
Lin Li believes that no one, after clearly understanding what kind of creature he really is, could rest assured in handing a child over to him to deal with.
Children are the most easily influenced to begin with.
Lin Li has even personally killed hundreds of millions of children many times.
Therefore, regarding the future, Lin Li could foresee a scene himself: if one day in the future, Lin Shouying and Lin Ziwei were born, he would probably be stripped of custody of these two children on the spot.
At that time, even if it were just for visitation, just to take a look from afar, it might require layers of review and approval from Chen Yuying and Wu Min.
This is Lin Li's confidence in himself.
Therefore, Lin Li feels that those who would rest assured in handing a child over to him are either careless parents who don't understand him, or step-parent types who are at odds with the child and harbor hatred.
However, in Wu Huizhen's current situation, it is neither of the two; another answer appeared: demons help demons, it's a demon's common sentiment.
But Lin Li thought about it and still felt he shouldn't be so quick to draw a conclusion; maybe it was just a hallucination just now.
So Lin Li took a step forward and gathered his courage to push the door open again.
"I am Nailong! I am Nailong! I am Nailong!" The little Nailong jumping up and down on the bed still only knew this one line.
Little Sasuke under the bed was still covering his eyes, but his lines were much richer. Looking at Lin Li who had returned, he raised an eyebrow and smiled slightly:
"Oh, moshiroi~ To think someone actually took this King's Amaterasu and is still safe and sound. Yare yare, it seems things are getting interesting—"
"Bang—!!!"
Before he could finish listening to Little Sasuke's words, the door was closed by the expressionless Lin Li—the force this time was much greater than before.
~Don't dare to open my eyes, hope it's my hallucination~
Damn it.
It wasn't a hallucination.
"Lin Li, what's wrong? Why are you still standing at the door and not going in?" Wu Huizhen's voice came from behind.
Lin Li turned back. Wu Huizhen was currently holding an empty plate in her left hand and a fruit knife in her right.
She was in the kitchen, but the lights hadn't been turned on yet. The living room light could only shine on Wu Huizhen's body; everything above her neck was just in the dimness, making it hard for people to see her expression clearly.
No need to see it clearly.
Lin Li had already hallucinated that smile of Light Yagami on Wu Huizhen's face.
Could it be... that all of this is a trap... that he and Wu Min... have been schemed against...
Wu Min: Why not avoid it?
Wu Huizhen: Heh, I avoid his edge? My child is not necessarily inferior!
Just your child is an evil spirit? Could it be that my child isn't one? Who pollutes whom, I don't think anyone can say for sure.
We Xiling people are just like this.
Forget it, Lin Li didn't continue to speculate about Wu Huizhen with such malice; she is also a pitiful person.
Although they are all evil, Lin Li felt from the bottom of his heart that the way he and these two children are evil is not in the same direction.
Aunt Zhenzhen's family being able to give birth to these two "Crouching Dragon and Fledgling Phoenix" at the same time, this life can be considered to have had it.
Compared to Wu Huizhen, Wu Min should still be better... should be.
"It's nothing, Auntie, I'm just looking at my phone."
So, coming back to his senses, facing Wu Huizhen's concern, Lin Li smiled at her, then took a deep breath again and pushed the door to enter for the third time.
The situation before his eyes hadn't improved at all; the sound of Nailong was endless.
But this time, Lin Li, having prepared his mental state, didn't retreat. He clapped his hands hard to make both of them look at him and quiet down.
"Nailong, Sasuke, you two stop playing for now.
Let me introduce myself first. My name is Lin Li. Auntie should have told you about me. I'm essentially here to be a tutor for you—mainly for you, Little Sasuke, but I only have one student, so I definitely don't count as a serious teacher.
There's no need to call me teacher or anything, so if you don't mind, calling me Brother Lin Li or just Lin Li is fine.
Then let's get straight to the point and start today's study now.
You haven't done your homework for this week, right? After finishing it tonight, you can play happily tomorrow and the day after, which is pretty good."
Upon hearing this, Li Nailong nodded very obediently and climbed off the bed to start rummaging through his schoolbag.
Lin Li nodded, feeling a little comforted in his heart.
In the days when he wasn't there, Nailong really took good care of him.
But Sasuke wasn't so easy to deal with.
He saw Li Sasuke cross his arms, snort coldly, lift his chin slightly, and look at Lin Li with a tone of looking down on all living beings:
"Not everyone is qualified to be my brother! This is a world of the jungle, where only the strong can survive! Besides, the karma of my identity is so great that ordinary people cannot bear it. If you want me to listen to you, show me your strength first!"
"If you don't have the strength, I will absolutely not listen to you! Otherwise... that would be harming you."
"Strength? I have it, of course I have it." Lin Li sighed and nodded.
Little Sasuke frowned slightly: "Show it to me!"
Lin Li reached into his pocket. When he took it out, his hand was in a fist, and then, under Sasuke's vigilant and curious gaze, he slowly opened it.
A small pebble.
"What is this."
Lin Li: "My stone grain."
Li Sasuke: "(へ╬)!"
"You dare to play with this Dark Venerable! What is the use of this kind of stone grain!?"
Lin Li replied quickly and calmly: "When the morning run just starts, put it into someone else's shoe, making them uncomfortable for a long time."
This move is quite annoying, after all, almost no one would choose to stop and leave the team during the morning run, taking off their shoes to pour out the stones under the eyes of other classes following behind.
Li Sasuke: "..."
The room fell into a brief silence.
A few seconds later, Li Sasuke's gaze toward Lin Li changed, from contempt to solemnity, even carrying a trace of... a senior's respect.
He lowered his voice and leaned in to ask: "Brother, can I ask, how can you put it in without being discovered?"
A King also has people he wants to harm.
Lin Li smiled slightly and taught him everything:
"Simple, if it's your deskmate, deliberately drop your pen by his feet before the morning run. When you bend down to pick up the pen, take the opportunity to send the stone into his shoe.
If it's during the morning run, then prepare more stones and flick them while running. Hard work will not betray those who care; there will always be a time when you hit. And as you become more proficient, your hit rate will only get higher and higher."
Li Sasuke's eyes lit up as he listened, nodding repeatedly. The look in his eyes when he looked at Lin Li already carried a bit of admiration for someone standing on a high mountain.
But in fact, this wasn't thought of by Lin Li.
It was that damn sword-tomb Bai Bufan. After Lin Li discovered him doing this, he told Lin Li this ultimate skill he had been hiding.
Later, the two even signed a non-aggression treaty on this matter and formed an alliance to infringe on others.
However, to this day, Lin Li has become a cultivator and no longer disdains to do this—the methods have iterated.
Now Lin Li only needs to use "Formless Sword" to attach to a small stone, and then control the stone to fly into someone else's shoe during the morning run, and he can quietly wait for the scene where the other person's face changes, their running posture starts to deform, and they start trying to kick the stone to the front.
The meaning of cultivation is fully reflected at this moment.
Therefore, after being harmed many times, Bai Bufan seriously suspected that Lin Li had torn up the treaty, but found no evidence and is still suspicious to this day.
But this move isn't useful on everyone.
It has hit a snag several times on Zhou Baowei. Perhaps his foot skin is too thick; Baowei didn't even know the stone had gotten in.
Of course, it could also be that the stone had already been crushed into powder and sacrificed itself.
Lin Li sometimes thinks that if he put a pencil lead into Baowei's shoe, would it turn into a diamond when taken out a few days later? There are ways to make money, but unfortunately, Baowei refuses to cooperate.
After remembering all of Lin Li's moves, Li Sasuke nodded, his eyebrows moved slightly, and he took a step back, as if the relationship that had originally been drawn closer had become distant again: "This is not the strength I want."
But it wasn't as resolute as before. Little Sasuke went to sit by the desk, picked up a test paper, and turned back to ask Lin Li:
"You still have to pass the test of learning strength."
Lin Li shrugged indifferently and walked behind him.
This week, he had asked Wu Huizhen about Li Pingxing's learning progress in advance and took some time to prepare lessons.
This bit of knowledge from the first year of junior high was no pressure for him at all.
"What is the solution to 2x+1=5?"
"2."
The first year of junior high is still teaching linear equations in one variable. Lin Li listening to this kind of question felt a bit like a lifetime ago.
"What is 3(x-2)=12 without the brackets?"
"3x-6."
"The solution to the equation ax+5=3x+b with respect to x is x=2, then what is the relationship between a and b?"
However, Lin Li didn't answer this question; he frowned.
Of course, it wasn't because the difficulty had increased, but because he discovered that every time he said an answer, this kid would write something on the test paper.
Could it be...
Lin Li leaned in.
The entire test paper was almost blank, with only two multiple-choice questions written—exactly the ones Li Sasuke had just asked.
Lin Li's mouth twitched: "Sasuke, you're cheating homework answers from me, aren't you?"
This kid is a talent.
Upon hearing this, Li Sasuke lowered his voice and clenched his fists with some unwillingness: "To think you discovered my intention within three questions. You guy, you have already reached the threshold of 'Dust Secret,' perhaps you are qualified to fight side by side with me..."
"Being qualified is enough," ignoring this child's chuunibyou and various settings he couldn't understand, Lin Li patted Li Sasuke's back and lifted his chin:
"Alright, you just start writing this homework first. If you really don't know, just skip it for now.
Then bring your schoolbag over and let me see the other homework and test papers you've written recently."
Seeing that both Nailong and Sasuke finally sat down obediently, Lin Li also got to the point.
