Black Silk Female Police Detective Exorcist

“But I am the owner of this umbrella. Why should your Jade Umbrella be before mine? Besides, Ling’er already has a Jade Spirit Sword. It would be a bit low-class for my weapon to be called Jade Umbrella, and it would be easy for outsiders to misunderstand our relationship... So let’s change the name to [Umbrella Jade Umbrella].

"Okay, okay, then let's call it the Jade Umbrella. You're beautiful, so everything you say is right."

Qin Huanyu readily agreed.

Mwah~~

Yi Youyou was satisfied and didn't hold back, directly offering a kiss on the shooting range... Anyway, there was no one else there but the two of them, so Yi Youyou was quite bold and proactive under these circumstances.

Qin Huanyu, of course, would not refuse. She was thick-skinned and would not be shy at all if she were to kiss Yi Youyou passionately on a global live broadcast. On the contrary, she would kiss her seriously and proudly, showing off to everyone how wonderful the beauty in her arms was.

The two lingered there, kissing and cuddling for a while, before finally leaving.

On the way to dinner, Yi Youyou hesitated for a moment before finally asking:

"The Jade Umbrella is a powerful weapon, and I'm very satisfied with it, but the power gained from equipment is ultimately not as reliable as one's own strength... If I want to continue developing my superpowers, Ayu, do you have any suggestions? What should be the most powerful move I can create with my bare hands?"

"Youyou, this is the most powerful move you can make with your bare hands... Well, it's actually very powerful, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it the strongest in the world."

Qin Huanyu thought for a moment, then answered very seriously:

"You know about universal gravitation, right? The gravity that people feel on Earth is essentially universal gravitation; it's the gravitational pull of Earth, a massive celestial body, on us."

"Youyou, if you can change the gravity coefficient, you can also change the gravitational coefficient, greatly enhancing the gravitational effect between two objects."

"Theoretically, if you could make the gravity of an object strong enough, you might be able to make it like those celestial bodies in the universe that have too much mass and cause a collapse reaction... forming a terrifying existence that even light cannot escape, a black hole."

"Although this is just my speculation, and it is almost impossible for you to reach that level with your current spiritual essence and ability strength, if I had to say where your ability limit is, this would be it."

"...I can create a black hole with my bare hands? Really? Ayu, you're not kidding me, are you?"

Yi Youyou was once again dumbfounded.

"It's just theory and speculation. The probability of it actually being achieved is negligible, but Youyou, you can try to work in this direction."

Qin Huanyu shrugged:

"If you ever manage to do that, then you will most likely become the strongest superhuman on Earth, and everyone will be protected by you."

Chapter 186 Re-cooperation with Acquaintances

Besides the Jade Umbrella, Qin Huanyu also made another piece of equipment for Yi Youyou, mainly to complement the Cursed Doll and the Nailhead Cone.

The combination of the Cursed Doll and the Nailhead Cone is quite powerful, but the conditions for using them are rather demanding; one must first know the target's real name and birth date.

In the past, the heads of the Yi family were all proficient in divination. A strong person like Yi Qiushui could calculate most of the target's information with just one glance, which was very useful in conjunction with the cursed puppet and the nail-headed awl.

However, Yi Youyou's skill in divination is far from sufficient. She might pick it up again in the future, but for now she can only be described as a slightly stronger novice—a little stronger than the average novice, but nothing compared to a truly professional expert. She simply cannot divine the true name and birth date of her enemy.

Therefore, Qin Huanyu made Yi Youyou a pair of sci-fi-style monocles, which looked very similar to the equipment in Dragon Ball that could check a target's combat power.

Qin Huanyu spent only half a day developing this monocular glasses. The structure is relatively simple, basically just a camera and a monitor, with all core functions relying on the Internet.

Through this monocle, Yi Youyou can connect to the network without delay and use big data and facial recognition to lock onto the target's identity information, thereby knowing the target's name and date of birth.

If the target is an unregistered person with no identity, the monocle can also calculate the target's specific birth time by observing the target's physical characteristics, much like an archaeologist estimates the age of an artifact, in order to barely activate the cursed doll and the spiked cone.

At least for human use, the monocle is very useful. Yi Youyou tried it a few times like a toy and then happily accepted it.

On the other hand, Qin Huanyu's split-thread thinking and the collaborative research conducted by Nangong Yue's team are also progressing very smoothly. A prototype of a drone brainwave controller that ordinary people can use has been produced. The next step is to continuously test and optimize it, and it is expected to be completed in a month at most.

Seeing this, Qin Huanyu stopped using her main body to participate and continued to work using a separate thread. Meanwhile, her main body and Yi Youyou resumed their carefree days, spending several days shopping, eating, or doing "do do do" at home.

Qin Huanyu was only alerted when a construction team installing internet cables for villagers in the mountains accidentally unearthed a 300-year-old zombie while laying the cables with an excavator, resulting in the deaths of several people.

The old zombie is quite capable; at least it's not afraid of automatic rifles or flamethrowers. It can jump two or three hundred meters in one leap, and its body is poisonous, so ordinary people who are bitten or scratched by it are almost certain to die.

After the armed police squadron's encirclement and suppression failed, the local county officials had no choice but to send an emergency request for help to the nearest city, Baiguang City, and the task naturally fell to Qin Huanyu.

As it was her duty, Qin Huanyu naturally wouldn't shirk it. Even though she was facing Yi Youyou, who had just taken a bath and smelled wonderful, and she herself was only half-undressed, she immediately put on her clothes and set off.

Yi Youyou, who had also hurriedly dressed and chased after them, said she wanted to go too after learning what was going on. She found it boring to just use her Yu Yu Umbrella to shoot steel plates at the range all the time; she'd been wanting to put it to real combat for a while.

On their way, the two encountered Ms. Zheyuan, a kind-hearted citizen who volunteered to help. The three of them rushed to the small mountain village where the incident occurred and fought against the old zombie.

Miss Zheyuan must really hate inhuman beings like the old zombie. She is an ordinary citizen with the least responsibility and obligation, yet she contributes the most in battle.

With her exquisitely elegant dance moves, the silver needles that shot out like a torrential rain, and the chilling blade light that shone with each swing of her scimitar, Miss Zheyuan almost single-handedly completely suppressed the old zombie.

Yi Youyou hovered in the air, occupying a high point. Whenever the old zombie tried to jump away, she would give it a specially made tungsten steel bullet with the power of an electromagnetic cannon, slamming the old zombie into the ground and leaving it unable to move for a long time.

One of them had a deep-seated hatred for the monster that killed his entire family when he was a child, and he was extremely ruthless. The other got a new special weapon (toy) and wanted to fire it a few more times. He beat the old zombie so badly that the old zombie wished he could go back underground and sleep for another 500 years.

However, that's no longer possible. If the old zombie hadn't caused any deaths when it woke up, it might have had a chance to go back underground and continue sleeping. Now, it has no chance.

Qin Huanyu barely had a chance to try out the new armor, let alone make a move, as the old zombie was destroyed by Yi Youyou and Miss Zhe Yuan.

This incident seems to have reached some kind of tacit understanding. After that, Miss Zhe Yuan stopped pretending that she had an informant in the police station. Whenever a supernatural disaster occurred near Baiguang City, as soon as Qin Huanyu received the news, Miss Zhe Yuan was already prepared to go together.

Qin Huanyu didn't say much about it. Some helpful people with power insisted on helping her with knives, and she couldn't refuse.

Adding to the mix is ​​Yi Youyou, whose enthusiasm for the new special weapon hasn't cooled down yet. The three of them always team up to fight in extraordinary events, giving the monsters and demons that commit crimes near Baiguang City a good beating.

For a time, rumors even circulated throughout the entire monster community of the Eastern Divine Continent, saying that there were three very beautiful crazy women in Yizhou County who would attack any monster they saw, often without caring whether you had done anything wrong.

One of the black bear spirits, whose head was covered in bumps, broke down in tears while drinking with his friends. He said that he had just passed by a place more than 100 kilometers away from the city of Baiguang when he was chased and slashed by a crazy dancer with a knife. If he hadn't been carrying the good demon certificate issued to him by the 404 Investigation Bureau, he might have been beaten to death for no reason.

This matter was only temporarily resolved when Qin Huanyu finished her work on the sub-thread and Nangong Yue's research team successfully developed the drone brainwave controller.

When the research team returned to the capital, Yi Youyou also received orders to go back to continue her work as the God of Fate. Wu Xiqun and Nangong Yue's honeymoon trip had ended.

After Yi Youyou left, Qin Huanyu lost interest in going around fighting demons and monsters. There were several supernatural cases that Qin Huanyu didn't need to handle personally; she could have provided remote guidance over the phone, and the local police could have handled them. It was Yi Youyou who insisted on dragging Qin Huanyu along because she hadn't had enough of her new special weapon. As a result, Qin Huanyu's actions alerted Miss Zhe Yuan, and in the end, the three of them teamed up to slap down the actually weak little demons and wandering ghosts like using a cannon to kill a mosquito.

Now that Yi Youyou has returned to Shendu, Qin Huanyu no longer handles every case personally. She remotely directs the local police to resolve most simple supernatural cases, and occasionally, when encountering stronger ghosts, she will proactively ask Xiao Liu to contact Miss Zhe Yuan.

In this way, Qin Huanyu once again gained a lot of free time. Apart from spending three or four afternoons a week patrolling the commercial street to maintain her policewoman persona, she spent most of her time doing scientific research at the Lingsu Research Institute.

In the early stages of the battle in the capital, Qin Huanyu obtained a small mechanical spider from the fake Erica, which gave her a lot of scientific research inspiration, enabling her to make breakthrough progress in soul data technology and human-machine direct connection technology.

She now has a fairly complete concept for the technologies she wrote in her answer sheet for the first project of the princess selection competition, such as implantable brain chips and machines that can detect human criminal tendencies.

If the country really needs those technologies, she can make prototypes to collect data at any time, and then optimize and improve them to achieve mass production.

Autumn turned to winter, and in the blink of an eye, four months had passed since the end of the Battle of the Divine Capital. Snow had already begun to fall in several provinces in the northernmost part of the Eastern Divine Continent.

During this period, while researching new technologies, Qin Huanyu also kept a close eye on international news, especially news from White Eagle Island.

Many news stories seem insignificant and are only briefly mentioned in reports, but Qin Huanyu still keenly discovered the hidden information within them.

In the past four months, more than 200 of the most outstanding scientific and technical personnel in all walks of life in the White Eagle Federation have died tragically. They all seem to be accidents, but those who know the truth about supernatural powers can see that they are not—especially the more than 70 people who were unfortunately struck by lightning when they went out in the rain. It looks like the work of Lei Mingming.

Qin Huanyu was still somewhat worried about the White Eagle Federation's reaction, and she frequently sought information from Yi Youyou or directly from Wu Xiqun.

In fact, contacting Lei Mingming directly through the Church of Arrogance to inquire about the situation would be the most efficient approach. However, one can't be too careful, as the extraordinary world possesses too many incredible abilities. If Qin Huanyu and Lei Mingming's secret contact is discovered, the Holy Zhou Kingdom will inevitably face gossip, and Lei Mingming's sacrifice will be in vain. Qin Huanyu dares not take the risk.

Yi Youyou and Wu Xiqun, of course, didn't hide anything from Qin Huanyu and told her quite a lot.

The White Eagle Federation was well aware that Lei Mingming and the Truth Society were responsible for the series of sudden deaths of their nation's top researchers. They protested to the Holy Zhou Kingdom on numerous occasions and openly mocked the Holy Zhou Kingdom for its shamelessness in various international diplomatic settings, practically accusing Lei Mingming of being the Holy Zhou Kingdom's front man.

In order to prove its innocence and maintain its public image, the Holy Zhou Kingdom had no choice but to send a team of extraordinary individuals to the White Eagle Federation, led by Lü Meng, to form an anti-terrorism alliance with the White Eagle Federation's intelligence agency's extraordinary agents to fight against Lei Mingming and the Truth Society.

In the end, the two sides fought a great battle. During the battle, neither Lü Meng nor Lei Mingming held back. Lü Meng's team killed three elite members of the Truth Society who were at the level of Ghost Lords, while Lei Mingming beat Lü Meng and his team half to death.

This battle silenced many people. Although those who still had doubts would certainly remain skeptical of Lei Mingming's actions, at least no one would openly make sarcastic remarks anymore, and the diplomatic work of the Holy Zhou Kingdom was no longer so difficult.

. . . . .

On this day, Qin Huanyu was still doing research in her workshop when she received a call from Bai Ling.

It was normal for Bai Ling to call Qin Huanyu; the two often chatted when they had free time. But this time, Bai Ling didn't call Qin Huanyu's private number; instead, she called her work number, the same number that Xiao Liu always called Qin Huanyu when something came up.

"Sister Yu, have you been busy with your research lately? I have something I'd like to ask you for help with."

Bai Ling didn't beat around the bush; she got straight to the point on the phone.

"It's alright, the general concept is fine, I've been focusing on refining the details lately."

Qin Huanyu tilted her head, holding the phone between her shoulder and ear. While on the call, her hands were also busy scribbling and drawing to record her ideas and inspirations.

"What happened?"

"That's right, Sister Yu."

Bai Ling said slowly:

"Have you been watching the local news in Nanhu City these past few days? A few fishermen accidentally pulled up an antique from the bottom of Nanhu Lake while fishing. After experts examined it, they found that the antique was very valuable—there may have once been an ancient city underwater in Nanhu Lake, which was later flooded for some unknown reason and became the Nanhu Lake we see today. And many of the people in Nanhu today are probably descendants of the residents of that ancient city at the bottom of the lake."

"Oh, that's right. I saw it on the news. I even discussed it with my dad last night when we were having dinner together."

Qin Huanyu suddenly realized, and then asked curiously:

Is there a problem with this?

"Sister Yu, you know that I am actually a snake demon, and I am very good at swimming."

Bai Ling sighed:

"So the officials of Nanhu City quickly contacted me, hoping that I would go into the bottom of Nanhu Lake to investigate and see if there really were ancient city ruins at the bottom of the lake."

"This was not a difficult task for me, so I agreed and, with the remote guidance of several archaeological experts, entered Nanhu Lake to carefully search the bottom of the lake."

"As a result, quite a few discoveries were indeed made. There may indeed be ancient city ruins at the bottom of Nanhu Lake. However, the ancient city ruins are not underground in the lake water, but underground at the bottom of the lake. The ancient city is very old, possibly dating back to the period of the struggle between the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor. So many years of geological movement have buried it very deep now."

“Our Nanhu City has always been a tourist city centered around Nanhu Lake. Such a major discovery is naturally highly valued by officials. If the ancient city ruins at the bottom of the lake are developed well, they can definitely attract more tourists and boost Nanhu City’s tourism revenue.”

"So they applied to higher authorities, hoping that experts from the capital would be sent to provide guidance and to form a professional team to conduct archaeological work on the bottom of Nanhu Lake."

"Archaeology... Sister Yu, you know, you're bound to encounter some monsters and ghosts. That's why every archaeological team is escorted by a local investigator, just like you did before, Sister Yu."

“This was originally my task, and I shouldn’t have refused, but… Sister Yu, do you remember the case of that female college student who turned into a vengeful ghost? I’ve been investigating the mastermind behind it all, and now that I’ve finally found some important clues, I really don’t want to miss this opportunity.”

"So I can only ask you for help, Sister Yu... Anyway, with Miss Zhe Yuan, such a helpful citizen, in Baiguang City now, you don't need to handle most supernatural cases personally. Could you come and help protect the archaeological team? The archaeological expert leading the team is an old acquaintance of yours."

"An old acquaintance of mine?"

Qin Huanyu thought back for a moment:

"Could it be Professor Zhang Ji?"

"Yes, it's Professor Zhang Ji, the one who worked with you during the archaeological excavation in Hongmu Town, Sister Yu. You've already worked together before, so this archaeological excavation should be a breeze for you."

Bai Ling used a coquettish tone:

"Please help me out, Sister Yu!"

"Okay, okay, I'll go help you. I've been staying at the research institute for a while now, and I feel a bit rusty. It'll be good to get out and move around."

Qin Huanyu smiled indulgently:

"But with our abilities, wouldn't it be more efficient for you to accompany Professor Zhang Ji on the archaeological excavation while I help you investigate the mastermind behind it all?"

"emmmm..."

Bai Ling whimpered a few times in reluctance, then continued to whine and plead:

"Of course I understand the logic, but I've been investigating that bastard for so long, and I really want to catch him myself. Sister Yu, please help me out!"

"OK, then I'll help you."

Qin Huanyu didn't say anything more.

After informing her father, Qin Hai, and her younger brother, Xiao Liu, and arranging follow-up plans for the research institute and the police station, Qin Huanyu arrived in Nanhu City the day after receiving Bai Ling's plan.

Just then, the expert team from Shen Du arrived, and both sides realized that most of them were familiar faces.

Not only was Professor Zhang Ji, who led the team, an acquaintance, but the rest of the archaeological team were also basically the graduate students that Professor Zhang Ji had supervised back then.

However, compared to when they were in Hongmu Town, these research institutes now look much more composed and capable, probably because they have been going through a lot of hardship and dirt with Professor Zhang Ji in the past two years.

It's true that working with acquaintances makes things easier. After a few brief pleasantries, Qin Huanyu directly inquired about Professor Zhang Ji's archaeological plan at the dinner table, as she needed to develop a security plan based on it.

"Based on the current findings of local archaeologists in Nanhu City, it can be determined that the main body of the ancient city ruins should be located more than 3 meters below the lake bottom. Given the geological structure of the Nanhu Lake bottom, a thickness of 3 meters is sufficient to withstand underground excavation projects."

As Professor Zhang Ji finished speaking, he took a tablet computer from the researcher next to him and opened a set of engineering drawings for Qin Huanyu to see:

"So our plan is to first dig a tunnel along the lake and go directly underground to avoid damaging the bottom of Nanhu Lake as much as possible... This is the engineering plan we rushed out overnight. Officer Qin, you are the real expert in this area. Please take a look and see if there are any flaws."

"it is good."

Qin Huanyu swallowed the fish piece in her mouth, wiped her oily hands, took Professor Zhang Ji's tablet computer, and started using the Mathematical Magic Eye.

Her computing power is now far superior to that of a supercomputer. The solution that Professor Zhang Ji's team worked on for two days straight was reviewed by Qin Huanyu in almost an instant, and she even performed thousands of simulations in her mind.

"It's a decent plan, I guess."

Qin Huanyu put down the tablet and took another sip of juice:

"According to your excavation plan, the probability of the lake bottom being breached and causing the lake water to backflow into the project site is no more than 3% if no accidents occur... Although the probability is still a bit high, it is already very good that you can come up with such a plan in just a few days."
