The stolen magic is a bit magical

Chapter 537 Ding Dong's Puppet Way

sunset.

A taxi drove into Nanhu Villa.

Lin Xiaosu carried a huge woven bag and walked side by side with Ding Ruoshui into the Ding family villa.

As usual, Ding's mother greeted her with a beaming smile.

Ding Ruoshui picked up the bag and solemnly handed it to her mother: "Mom, this is what his mother... grew by her own hands. It embodies her hard work. His mother said that you can have anything you want in Jiangcheng, but she only has some vegetables that she grew herself to let you taste the flavor of family affection."

She kept using the vulgar term "his mother"...

Lin Xiaosu felt a slight soreness in her cheeks.

Dante's mother was overjoyed. She took the bag, opened it, and smiled like a flower: "Sister Mei, wash these radishes that our in-laws grew. I'll cook them a new dish myself."

Aunt Mei came over cheerfully to make preparations.

Lin Xiaosu reached out and took out a jade bracelet, handing it to Ding's mother: "Auntie, this is a gift for you."

Ding Ruoshui was quite surprised.

This jade bracelet is crystal clear and has floating patterns inside.

In her opinion, it's quite valuable, at least in the six figures—of course, that is, it has to be genuine.

He's such a stingy person, would he really be willing to buy his mother a bracelet worth hundreds of thousands?
Please make sure it's not a fake.

You bought 38 yuan worth of vegetables and radishes at the market, and I agreed, just because of the political and ideological work you did. I think about it, and that's what it was about.

However, it would be really too much for you to buy my mom a fake bracelet that has been acid-treated; that stuff irritates the skin...

Ding's mother's eyes sparkled: "Su'er, why are you spending so much money..."

“Auntie, I really didn’t spend any money on this bracelet. Last time I went to Biannan Province, I spent 50,000 yuan to buy a piece of jadeite rough. Several bracelets and a bunch of pendants were cut out on the spot. I made my money back after selling just one piece. The rest were all profit.”

Ding's mother chuckled: "I told you, Su'er is a detective, her eyes are like magic..."

She took the jade bracelet and put it on right there and then: "Sister Mei, Sister Fang, come and take a look!"

Two women came over and surrounded the lady, admiring the bracelet and praising it, saying it must be worth tens of thousands...

Ding's mother sneered at them: "Tens of thousands? Who would sell you an icy jadeite piece with floating flowers for tens of thousands? I saw one at Helaixuan last time, and it wasn't as good as Su'er's, yet they asked for 800,000!"

hiss!
A collective gasp rippled through the room...

The three women went into the kitchen to prepare dinner.

Ding Ruoshui sat with Lin Xiaosu in the living room when a voice quietly drifted over: "Is this bracelet real or fake?"

"What do you mean by real or fake? I pulled it out of the rock right here, how could it be fake?"

"Is it really worth 80?"

"As far as I know, similar products from Helaixuan can indeed be priced as high as 80 yuan, after all, it's a brand known worldwide for ripping off wealthy women..."

"I've given your detective agency 80 yuan in investigation fees and performance fees for pretending to be your boyfriend. Now you're giving my mother a bracelet worth exactly 80 yuan. Is there some reason behind this?" Ding Ruoshui asked with a smile.

"This means that we are leaving the pretense behind and entering the real battle."

"Get out! Not tonight. Girls shouldn't mess around at their parents' house... I heard it's bad for their brothers."

"Even if he doesn't mess around, what good partner does your brother have?" Lin Xiaosu looked around. "Where's your brother?"

"My brother..." Ding Ruoshui bowed and called out, "Mom, where's my brother?"

Ding's mother came over from the kitchen: "Your brother has gone mad lately, messing around with Doraemon, Doraemon Dog, Xixi, Nannan, Beibei every day..."

At her call, two kittens and two puppies came running down the stairs.

Ding Ruoshui's eyes widened...

Furry little animals like cats and dogs seem to be naturally appealing to girls.

She had never seen these four cats and dogs before.

But they are all incredibly cute.

"This white one is Xixi, this black and white one is Nannan, this pure black one is Beibei, and what's this spotted dog's name again, Sister Fang?" said Ding's mother.

Aunt Fang responded from a distance down the passage: "Madam, this Dalmatian is called Little Ben."

Ding Ruoshui was a little confused: "We already have the northwest, south, and north, so why not just call it Dongdong?"

“Dongdong is your brother!” Ding’s mother said, “Xixi, Nannan, Beibei, Class 1, stand at attention!”

Several dogs and cats stood at attention.

"This is your master, show him!"

The two puppies stood up on their hind legs and placed their paws in Ding Ruoshui's hands. The two kittens also stood up like cats and placed their paws in Lin Xiaosu's hands, representing the Ding family in welcoming their two new owners who had just returned.

Ding Ruoshui was delighted.

Lin Xiaosu's heart skipped a beat.

Whether it was Ding's mother, the servants of the Ding family, Ding Lizhong, or Ding Ruoshui, they probably all thought that these four cats and dogs were robotic cats and dogs.

Only he understood clearly.

No, that's not it.

This is a puppet!
Ding Dong finally took his first step on the path of puppetry.

I created four cats and dogs using puppetry.

There are no electrical components inside these cats and dogs; they only contain arrays and runes.

This brother-in-law of mine, you have to admit, is a genius.

"Is he in the basement? I'll go check on him," Lin Xiaosu said.

“Okay, he’s been having his meals delivered downstairs these days. Why don’t you bring him upstairs for dinner?” Ding’s mother said.

Lin Xiaosu arrived at the elevator, pressed the button, and went into the basement.

In the basement, Ding Dong sat at the table with a cup of coffee in front of him. The coffee had completely cooled down, and at that moment, he wore an expression rarely seen by outsiders.

He stared intently at the piece of paper in front of him. Lin Xiaosu took a step forward, and Ding Dong, as if by reflex, waved his hand, causing the paper to vanish into thin air. He abruptly looked up, saw Lin Xiaosu, and his expression shifted dramatically. He jumped up, asking, "Brother, when did you get here?"

"Just now!" Lin Xiaosu said, "What were you looking at?"

"This!" Ding Dong reached into his pocket and pulled out the paper.

Lin Xiaosu glanced over...

This is the complete rune controlling the wing blades.

"You've drawn the control runes for the wing blades!" Lin Xiaosu said.

“Yes, these runes must be perfectly accurate, which is extremely difficult. The way of puppetry cannot tolerate the slightest mistake, otherwise, the formation will be destroyed and people will be injured. After a brutal hundred-day battle, I can now create them in one go.” Ding Dong’s expression was very excited.

Lin Xiaosu exclaimed, "Brother Ding, you are truly a genius in this field."

"Hehe, who in the world doesn't know that?" Ding Dong showed no humility whatsoever.

"Next, do you plan to try it on the Wing Blade?"

Ding Dong's eyes gleamed: "I haven't made up my mind yet. Should I contact them before the New Year, or wait until after the New Year?"

"If you want to do something, don't overthink it, just do it!" Lin Xiaosu said.

"Alright, I'll contact that white-haired girl tomorrow. Hey bro, how old is that white-haired girl?"

"Damn, I can understand if you want to ask about her identity, but what's the point of asking about her age?"

"What could it possibly mean? Let's make sure it's okay to flirt..."

"Brother Ding, you really haven't changed your mind!" Lin Xiaosu exclaimed. "But I don't know how old she is. I don't usually pay much attention to a woman's age."

"I can't ignore it, otherwise I might end up with someone in their forties or fifties, and that would be a laughing stock for the rest of my life..."

cut!
Lin Xiaosu looked down on it.

Are people in their forties and fifties already a laughing stock?

I don’t even know how old Li Xueyi is, but she still got on a horse.
I know for certain that the Holy Maiden of the Thousand Spirits who lives by Tashan Lake is over ten thousand years old. If she were to try something new, do you think I would have any psychological barriers...?

However, these things are certainly not suitable to share with this cheap brother-in-law...

I took Ding Dong out for dinner.

When Ding Dong gets busy, he basically works day and night, and eats meals whenever he feels like it.

However, there are always exceptions. What could he do when Lin Xiaosu pulled him up?
Ding Lizhong returned, looking radiant.

Ding's mother prepared a new dish: radish soup. It looked and smelled wonderful... well, the taste was just so-so, but the color and aroma were perfect...

During the meal, she recounted the origins of the green vegetables and radishes, making Lin Xiaosu feel a little embarrassed...

Fortunately, everyone was familiar with the following procedures.

It was nothing more than drinking enough to buy a house in the county, and then Lin Xiaosu would accompany Ding Lizhong to sit in the study for a while.

At this time of year, it's best not to go up to the rooftop. In the dead of winter, there's no need to brave the night wind on the roof.

Entering Ding Lizhong's room, it was warm and cozy. After having a cup of tea, Lin Xiaosu smiled and said, "Uncle Ding, you look radiant today. Is there something good to celebrate?"

"Isn't your arrival a cause for celebration?" Ding Lizhong laughed heartily. "Besides, there is indeed another great piece of good news."

"what?"

"Our research project has been successfully completed!" Ding Lizhong picked up his teacup and let out a long sigh of relief: "This is an epoch-making revolution that will rewrite history!"

Lin Xiaosu's heart pounded wildly. A revolutionary era, rewriting history?
The only thing he could think of that could be considered worthy of such a description was...

That is the "Gate of Creation" on the path of genes, the gateway to breaking free from the shackles of genes.

Did Yixiang tell Ding Lizhong about her escape? Did Ding Lizhong really find the path to unlocking genes?
However, Ding Lizhong's next words told him that it wasn't that!
But it's another field...

In the field of communications!

Currently, all communications rely heavily on satellites.

Modern military and modern people's lives all depend on satellites.

In peacetime, there is no problem.

Small-scale local wars are no problem.

After all, those small countries have no way to shoot down satellites, and they wouldn't even dare to entertain such a thought.

However, one day in the future, the world will undergo a tremendous change.

As the folded space opened up, super giants appeared one after another beneath this world.

They can fly through the void.

They can destroy aircraft with the flick of their wrist.

Satellites are not necessarily safe!

If the satellites are not destroyed, modern missiles might still be able to fight these giants in the cultivation path for a few rounds and might even be able to kill them effectively. But what if these giants soar into the sky and use their unparalleled cultivation techniques to destroy all the satellites at once?
Military forces around the world are already used to satellite positioning. Without satellites, missiles have no target. How can we effectively counter them?
This is a dead end for communication technology!

Based on this, the Great Xia launched a top-secret project called "Earth Eye Project".

What is the Earth Eye?

If satellites are the eyes in the sky, then underground communication base stations are the eyes on the earth.

The Earth Eye relies not on satellites, but on neutrino technology.

This project has been underway for many years.

The border crossing was very slow throughout the journey.

After Lin Xiaosu obtained the Purple Demon Stone, the project accelerated, and the Changsheng Group was taken over by the state, which was to do this.

Of course, it's not just Changsheng Group that's doing this.

Jiangnan Group has also been fully cooperating.
