I really don't want to take shortcuts anymore

That night, Luo Qianhuai tossed and turned but couldn't sleep. He always felt that he had forgotten something.

At midnight, a dull electronic prompt sounded: "The storage period of the rewards has expired, and the distribution will begin now."

"This reward distribution adopts a self-collection mode. Since the host's current ability is not enough to complete it independently, this system will enforce it!"

Luo Qianhuai felt like waking up from a dream. It turned out to be the reward for the mission back home after the last night visit to the White House. She had already won the prize at that time, but she still missed a box of cordyceps.

"System, my new mask is in the closet next to me. Can you put it on before going out?"

"I want to live in Changlingyi for a long time. The previous few times have been dangerous enough. If I am regarded as a thief by my neighbors, how can I continue my career in the future?"

The system raced against time to take over the body, completely ignoring her nagging, rushing out of the door like the wind, flying to the ridge of the roof, and running wildly under the moonlight.

Since the twelfth lunar month, the weather has become colder and colder, with water dripping into ice. Even though Luo Qianhuai had put on relatively thick blue pajamas made of Songjiang silk, he was still chilled by the night wind.

Fortunately, the system is quite conscientious today. It stopped shortly after starting and jumped into a yard on the front street.

She had been to this place before, but she had never stepped through the door.

It's not surprising when you think about it. Cordyceps is a medicinal material, where else can it be stored in a drug store.

It was already so late, and the entire Huichun Hall was completely dark inside and outside, which was just the right time to start.

The system is very familiar with this kind of thing. He took down a rosewood box from the top of the Baizi cabinet. When he opened it and looked at it, he found a box full of high-quality cordyceps. They were all plump and well-proportioned. They would have been worth at least one hundred thousand in the previous life. Yuan.

Although Luo Qianhuai had a very bad impression of Huichuntang due to Gao Liang's relationship, it didn't mean that she would take the box of Cordyceps for nothing.

Just think of it as an interbank loan, she thought, and just find a way to pay it back when she gets back.

What was supposed to be a sure thing turned out to be a mistake. System was carrying the box and was about to leave the house when suddenly there were footsteps in the distance, and a faint light could be seen through the window.

"Someone is coming!" Luo Qianhuai said eagerly: "Hurry up and hide, don't meet him!"

The system turned a deaf ear, and with Luo Qianhuai's desperate eyes, he pushed the door open and bumped into the person coming.

It’s really a narrow road between enemies. The person who stayed awake in the middle of the night and came out with a small lantern was none other than Luo Qianhuai's old acquaintance Gao Liang.

He didn't know what was wrong with him recently. He was always a little restless, accompanied by insomnia and nightmares. I just woke up from my dream and couldn't fall asleep. I wanted to come over and pick up a dose of calming soup to drink.

Compared to the system's composure, Gao Liang's performance at this moment was extremely poor.

The lantern fell to the ground and was extinguished. His eyes, which were originally groggy, suddenly widened, and his mouth opened so wide that he could fit a goose egg in.

"Luo, Madam Luo, why are you here?"

After saying these words, his eyes fell on the rosewood box in her arms, and then he realized what had happened.

"Isn't this the Cordyceps that I spent a lot of money to buy?" He jumped and shouted, rushing up to try to snatch the box from her hand: "How can you come and steal things?"

Naturally, the system would not let him succeed, and he went up to the room with a sway.

Gao Liang didn't expect Luo Qianhuai to know martial arts. But this time he reacted very quickly and shouted immediately: "There is a thief, catch the thief!"

The originally quiet night immediately became chaotic because of this cry. Luo Qianhuai could hear it, the lights in the backyard of Huichun Hall were lighting up one after another, and chaotic footsteps were coming and going.

not only that. Because nowadays there is a system of helping each other. If a neighbor encounters a thief or a fire, he must come out to help as soon as possible. If someone sits idly by, they will be held accountable later. Therefore, the lights of neighboring shops are flickering and the voices of people are floating. , they rush over as soon as they see it.

This is the worst situation Luo Qianhuai has ever thought about.

In fact, there is no worst, only worse.

The electronic sound sounded at the right time: "The reward was collected successfully. The enforcement status was lifted. Use the shortcut system to reach the peak of life! Thank you for your trust and support in version 1.2 of the shortcut system!"

Luo Qianhuai was no longer able to complain about the system. After taking over her body, she immediately dropped the stolen goods in her hands, and quickly tore off a section of her skirt to cover her face. The system was called out just before the first wave of people arrived at the scene:

"System, I want to go home safely and without being known to anyone. By the way, can you erase Gao Liang's memory by the way?"

"Hey, some of the host's requirements are beyond the capabilities of this system. Please resubmit a feasible wish."

Luo Qianhuai: "... Then let's be safe first..."

Before she could finish speaking, a big hand suddenly appeared from behind, grabbed her arm, and quickly threw something at Gao Liang who was pointing at her and yelling, hitting Gao Liang on the forehead, making him depressed. He fell to the ground and was unconscious.

"You..." Luo Qianhuai turned his head and saw a face covered with a black scarf, revealing only thick eyebrows and big eyes, which were as bright as stars.

Although he couldn't see the whole picture, he could still recognize from his facial features and body shape that this person was Zhang Dajian Zong whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

Zhang Qing led her across the rooftops for a few breaths, then jumped into a deserted narrow alley, turned around, and returned home.

Luo Zhao had been waiting at the door for a long time and welcomed the two of them in.

Luo Qianhuai had a lot to ask, such as why it took so long to go to Maoling for a birthday banquet with Pei Jianzong, whether Zhang Qing's internal injuries were completely healed, how far Luo Zhao's kung fu had progressed, etc., but he hadn't spoken yet. , but Zhang Qing frowned and asked her:

"I just visited Madam Luo. Her inner breath seemed to be unsustainable. On the way back, I tried to explore her again. She was almost the same as a normal person - could it be that she was plotted by Xiao Xiao?"

When he said this, Luo Zhao immediately became nervous and quickly came to help her: "Sister, who is the shameless person who did this? I will not let him go lightly!"

As an insider, Xingjiu stood aside, his face turned red and white, and he looked at Luo Qianhuai.

Luo Qianhuai glanced at her reassuringly, waved his hand and said: "It's a misunderstanding. In fact, my skill is strange. Just checking my pulse is no different from ordinary people, but it makes Zhang Jianzong and Zhao'er worried."

Seeing that Zhang Qing and Luo Zhao still wanted to dig deeper, Luo Qianhuai quickly changed the subject: "By the way, I went to the Huichun Hall tonight. I wanted to find the evidence to overturn my uncle's case, but I didn't expect that the snake's traces were revealed. I'm afraid They will come to your door soon, so it’s better to prepare in advance.”

"It doesn't matter." Zhang Qing didn't take it seriously: "No one else could see your appearance clearly. The only one who saw you was knocked unconscious by me and won't wake up for the time being - I will go over and kill him, once and for all."

"Wait a minute!" Luo Qianhuai was startled. It wasn't that she was merciful, but Gao Liang couldn't be blamed for tonight's incident. In fact, he was still the source of suffering. If he was killed in such an unexplained way, it would be difficult for her to have a clear conscience in the future.

"What other orders does Mrs. Luo have? But do you want that person to die more ugly?"
