In America, my cousin, Supergirl Kara...

Lisa's chest heaved with anger, and she was about to speak when Li Xiao gently pulled her aside. He then went into his clothes, rummaged around, and pulled out the mole man's tear.

"Dr. Tina, how's my gem?"

Tina's eyes lit up immediately. She examined it with great interest, a greedy glint in her eyes. "A perfect silicon crystal. It looks completely natural."

"Really? How does it compare to the sapphire earrings in your pocket?"

Tina's expression changed, but she forced herself to remain calm and said, "What are you talking about? I don't understand what you mean."

Li Xiao remained silent, instantly closing in, grabbing the female doctor's hands, and slamming her against the wall.

Tina cried out in pain, her eyes flashing with ferocity. "Don't eat the sour radish! How dare you lay a hand on me!"

Li Xiao slapped her hard across the face, knocking her gold-rimmed glasses off.

"Still yelling?" Li Xiao slapped her across the face again, and Tina's head slammed heavily against the wall, blood flowing down her forehead.

"Ah! Fuck!"

Li Xiao ignored him and reached straight into his pocket, taking out everything.

Gold coins, a key, and two earrings, one blue and one red.

Tina's face turned deathly pale instantly, and she lost all strength to struggle. As soon as Li Xiao let go, she fell directly to the ground.

"Doctor, I need an explanation!"

Lisa narrowed her eyes, and her expression gradually turned cold.

"Hey, don't you know some things you can't just steal?" Corinna, barefoot, kicked Tina in the back twice. "According to Washington state law, theft involving $750 or more will result in license revocation and jail time. And you stole from a nobleman! Guess how you're going to die?"

Tina's lips trembled slightly. Having spent years among nobles, how could she not know the methods of these ruthless monsters who devour people without spitting out the bones? If they kissed someone, they would cut off their hand; if it was serious, they would hang glucose on them and have them roasted into a huge meat party. The young lady in front of her was abandoned by her family and sent here because she couldn't accept it.

The only way out was through her, and with that thought, she quickly knelt down at Lisa's feet, licking her feet like a humble dog: "Miss Lisa, I know I was wrong, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."

Li Xiao felt a chill run down his spine. The methods of the blue-blooded nobles could actually frighten someone to the point of begging for mercy.

Lisa closed her eyes, then regained her composure after a moment, and kicked away, saying, "You're fired! Take your things and get out of my house!"

Tina's face was ashen, her lips moving as if she wanted to say something, but Lisa spoke up the next moment: "This matter ends here, you can leave."

"Thank you, thank you, may God bless you!"

Tina burst into tears instantly, repeatedly kowtowing and crawling away.

[Quest: You severely punished the greedy demon servant]

[Reward: Swiftness +1, Ring of Greedy Servant +1]

Li Xiao felt a slight chill creep into his nerves. He turned his back and threw a punch. Whoosh! A gust of wind blew by, making him several times faster than before.

Without a sound, a ring appeared in Li Xiao's palm. He put it inside his clothes without changing his expression, and then put it on.

"Hey, little white ferret, you've really impressed me!" Corinna patted Li Xiao with a smile. "How did you know she stole something? Are you Sherlock Holmes?"

"I guessed." Li Xiaoyun sat back in his chair with a nonchalant air. "I even heard it."

"Coach, thank you so much for today," Lisa said gratefully, bowing deeply.

"By the way, Corinna just said she'd die? Stealing something shouldn't be that serious, right?"

"Let me give you a brief explanation," Lisa said, recalling her vocabulary. "In aristocratic circles, there are some things that ordinary people can't touch, like keeping birds."

"Raising birds?"

"Yes, it's raising birds. Only nobles are allowed to have such a hobby. If an ordinary person is found to be raising birds, they will be eliminated. Not to mention Tina stole my things. If my father finds out, she will be torn to pieces."

Good heavens! Li Xiao gasped. Are all nobles this domineering and tyrannical? Why is Lisa different?

"Don't look at me like that. I was thrown here by my father because I couldn't handle this kind of thing," Lisa sighed and sat down next to Li Xiao. "I'm strictly disciplined in terms of eating and dressing, not to mention their inhuman hobbies. If I'm suitable, I'll be sent to a marriage alliance to consolidate family ties."

Li Xiao was stunned. This was just like the Five Clans and Seven Noble Families during the Tang Dynasty. Indeed, history is a huge cycle.

wrong.

Li Xiao turned around and stared at Lisa: "You can't even date, so why are you still clinging to me?"

"You little boy, you really want to do something outrageous?" Corinna scoffed. "Touching you is like getting stunned. You don't have the guts."

"No," Li Xiao shook his head, "I don't like to have deep conversations with people I've only known for a short time, and I'm still a minor."

"So, we can just get to know each other better before we become adults?" Lisa asked with a faint smile.

"We'll see," Li Xiao replied casually. Just then, his phone rang. Li Xiao picked it up and saw that it was Kara calling. He quickly answered the call.

"Hey, what's up?"

"Where are you now? Come back right now!"

Carla sounded urgent, and she was arguing with other people from time to time; the phone was noisy.

"Don't worry, I'll be right there."

Li Xiao quickly put his phone back in his pocket, and Corinna asked, "Who was it?"

"My cousin must have something urgent," Li Xiao said, and started to run outside, but Corinna grabbed her arm. "What's the rush? I'll drive you; are you going to run there?"

"Thank you," Li Xiao said. Corinna handed him a card with gold coins on it: "Show this if you need anything; it might solve a lot of trouble."

……

The car drove out of the manor and headed towards Kara's residence. Corinna's speed never dropped below 140 miles per hour, and she even ran three red lights in the process.

If the BMW i8 hadn't been going so fast, it would have been stopped by the police long ago.

"No rush, we'll be there in a few minutes." Looking at the silent Li Xiao, Corinna said seriously, "Speaking of which, I haven't met your cousin yet. What's she like?"

"Tsk, she has a pretty bad temper," Li Xiao tapped his fingers on the glass. "But she's not a bad person, just too strong-willed. To be honest, if she hadn't taken me in, I'd still be a problem student at Dongda University."

"She is indeed very nice. If you were at Dongda University, where would I find such a cute little white ferret like you?" Seeing that Li Xiao's emotions were stable and he was not affected, Corinna laughed again.

"Drive carefully," Li Xiao said, brushing the hand off his earlobe. This woman always liked to pinch him for no reason; he was really fed up with it.

The car quickly drove into the alley, and as soon as Li Xiao got out, he hurriedly ran towards home.

A Ford Explorer SUV equipped with police lights was parked on the street corner. The word "IRS" was painted on it. There was no one in the car, except for a black MP15 rifle with a frighteningly large size, like a Gatling gun, which was mounted between the seats.

Tax Bureau? What are they doing here? Did Kara not pay her taxes?

Li Xiao had heard of this violent organization very well; in the United States, whether it was buying things for free or smuggling drugs, taxes had to be paid on time.
