Chapter 371: Chapter 24 Infiltration

Dai Lin slowly pulled back the curtains before his eyes.

Outside the window, he could clearly see... Mount Suyuan.

The deaths of Lin Yan and An Minglu were both connected to Mount Suyuan.

Dai Lin had never expected that, near Mount Suyuan, his sensing of Charm Shadow Villa would reach its most intense pinnacle.

"Could there be a connection here?"

If there really was a connection, then the nature of the situation was far from ordinary in its seriousness.

The truth behind An Minglu’s death remained a mystery to this day, and after Lin Yan entered the Demons Department for treatment, he too had completely disappeared.

To this moment, Dai Lin still regretted that on that night, he shouldn’t have allowed his younger brother Dai Wei to go to An Minglu’s home. This had led his brother to attract a demon’s curse, and now he still had to go to the Demons Department regularly for check-ups.

But unfortunately, in this world, there isn’t a pill for regret one could take.

"Perhaps there is a connection, but I tend to think there isn’t," said Milan from behind Dai Lin. "It might just be a coincidence, or perhaps there is only an indirect relationship."

At this time, Dai Lin and Milan were at a lodge from which Mount Suyuan could be seen.

With his sensing, Dai Lin should be able to locate the position of Charm Shadow Villa.

But, having reached this place, Dai Lin and Milan did not proceed any further.

Due to the severity of the situation, it had exceeded their expectations.

Initially, they had thought that even if they couldn’t counter the curse within Charm Shadow Villa, leaving unscathed would not be a big issue. However, the current situation was probably not that simple.

So...

Just then, there came a knock at the door.

Milan and Dai Lin immediately looked over.

Naturally, Dai Lin’s eyes could see through the door to identify who was outside.

"They’re here."

Milan slowly approached the door and opened it.

Outside stood a middle-aged man in a sharp suit, with a young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses standing behind him.

"Is this Ms. Diana Solon?"

Milan nodded, "Yes, that’s correct."

The middle-aged man replied, "My name is Qin Luyan, I am the butler of Charm Shadow Villa. This gentleman is the lawyer employed by our master, his surname is Tan."

"Alright, please come in, the both of you," Milan said.

After entering the room, Qin Luyan immediately looked at Dai Lin.

"Is this Mr. Dai Lin?"

"Yes," Dai Lin nodded and said, "I and Dai... Diana were separately employed as a geography teacher and an English teacher."

"Hmm. I’ve already seen both of your resumes and teaching credentials," Qin Luyan glanced at Dai Lin and Milan, "However, I didn’t expect that the two of you..."

"It’s just my little indulgence, I suppose. You want us to live inside the estate, so obviously it would be better for us to stay together, wouldn’t it?"

Qin Luyan nodded and said, "So, have you two already signed the electronic contract I sent?"

"Of course."

"Since that’s the case, there should be no problem with you moving into Charm Shadow Villa today, right? On our end, the vacancy for a geography teacher emerged quite abruptly, as a teacher left their post without any warning."

"Would it be possible for me to ask the reason for this teacher’s resignation?" Milan asked.

Qin Luyan shook his head slightly and said, "That involves the teacher’s privacy, which I’m afraid I can’t share with the two of you."

He doesn’t know I’m a doctor from Hospital 444.

Or is he pretending not to know, ready to lay a trap?

Dai Lin was calculating the distance between him and Qin Luyan, ready to seize a strand of his hair at any moment to read his memories.

One of the strongest abilities of Dai Lin’s Devil’s Eye now was the power to distort others’ cognition. In this regard, he, a surgeon, could completely pass for a geography teacher who graduated from a professional teaching university and acquired a teaching qualification. Additionally, with the many memories he had absorbed, teaching history or geography was not a challenge at all.

Sharing memories and consciousness with Milan also made it easier for them to look after each other upon entering Charm Shadow Villa.

Of course... this trip could be said to be entering a dragon’s den and a tiger’s lair. Especially considering the fact that they were rehiring a geography teacher, it was more than likely that Lin Sunzhu had met with misfortune.

Furthermore, it was unknown whether Dai Lin’s ability to distort cognition would work on the people from Charm Shadow Villa. That’s why they had arranged to meet here. If Qin Luyan could see through his disguise as a doctor from Hospital 444, then they might as well just tear off the pretense and confront him directly.

Together, he and Milan could even make the doctors from the Demons Department wary, so Dai Lin refused to believe that Qin Luyan was so formidable as to look down on all the doctors from Hospital 444. If he really were that powerful, would there be any need to resort to the despicable tactic of using someone’s life as leverage to obstruct the doctors of Hospital 444 from investigating Charm Shadow Villa? The more they did this, the more it proved that Hospital 444 indeed posed a threat to Charm Shadow Villa.

The more the enemy wanted to instill fear in them, the less they could afford to be afraid.

That night...

Recalling that night, Dai Lin still felt a chill of fear.

He had been talking to Milan, but suddenly, she just disappeared.

After searching the entire inn, Dai Lin couldn’t find any trace of Milan. It wasn’t until dawn, when he returned to his room, that he found Milan lying there as if nothing had happened.

Milan had completely lost her memory of that period of time.

It was only because it was her, someone who could disappear and return, that this was possible. An ordinary person couldn’t have managed that.

Later, Dai Lin found out that the nearby villages had been experiencing strange disappearances from time to time. However, none of those who disappeared... ever returned. The disappearances were all adults, and because the rural villages had a high migrant population, these incidents hadn’t drawn much attention yet.

Whether or not this was related to Charm Shadow Villa was uncertain to Dai Lin at the time.

Afterward, Dai Lin and Milan finally decided to use an infiltration operation. Utilizing the ability of his Devil’s Eye to influence human cognition, he disguised himself as a homeschool teacher to gain entry into Charm Shadow Villa.

Doing so, of course, came with high risks.

Dai Lin and Milan had arranged to meet Qin Luyan here today to test the waters, to see if the other party was really as omnipotent as he seemed and whether he could see through Dai Lin. At the same time, they aimed to take his hair and memories to learn more about the inner workings of Charm Shadow Villa.

Through Dai Lin’s Devil’s Eye, both Qin Luyan and this lawyer Tan were undoubtedly, thoroughly human.

"We can move into Charm Shadow Villa today. However, about those precautions you mentioned online?"

"You just need to remember a few things. You must take attendance before class, ensuring that the roll call is absolutely accurate. If you find any student crying or questioning the content of the attendance, you must tell me immediately, and I will reward you with ten thousand yuan. Of course, this is provided that what you’re saying is true. And the last point, no matter how dubious you are, do not inquire about the reason behind these regulations. That... shouldn’t be a problem, right?"

A cold sneer formed in Dai Lin’s mind.

How could I possibly not investigate the reason? If I didn’t come here to delve into it, what am I doing here?

He looked at Qin Luyan before him with a chilly gaze, his hand subconsciously rising, already prepared to take his hair!
