Chapter 394: Chapter 273. Beichuan Si Is Not Suitable for Texting (Another 4000 Words)

Beichuan Si ignored the constant knocking and shouting of Tsuchiya Motomu from behind him and left the meeting room with Gangye Yoshiko.

"Kid, when you get sarcastic, you really are..." Gangye Yoshiko said with amusement as she lit a lady’s cigarette.

She had been a cop for two or three years now and had seen all sorts of criminals, including the likes of Tsuchiya Motomu who screamed pitifully and banged his head against the glass not too far in the past.

But in the end, he was just impotently furious.

She took another drag of her cigarette and suggested,

"How about we go out for a meal and then pretty much head back?"

At these words, Beichuan Si’s footsteps paused as he looked over coldly, "Drink?"

Cough, cough, cough—

Gangye Yoshiko’s face suddenly turned red, "Beichuan! I’ve told you, last time was just an accident! Don’t keep harping on it!"

"I was just asking if you wanted to drink, I didn’t mean to imply anything about last time," Beichuan Si said honestly.

"..." Gangye Yoshiko.

She looked at Beichuan Si suspiciously and asked in an uncertain tone, "Are you sure?"

Was this kid really just asking a question? Not implying anything?

Gangye Yoshiko was also somewhat unsure.

After all, Beichuan Si had always been utterly honest, and what he said was mostly credible.

So naturally, his words should be credible.

But—

"You really weren’t thinking of ridiculing me?" Gangye Yoshiko still held on to Beichuan Si and asked.

Beichuan Si frowned and counter-asked, "Why would I want to ridicule you?"

Uh.

Gangye Yoshiko nodded.

Indeed, Beichuan Si, with his honest and straightforward demeanor, didn’t seem like the type to mock someone behind their back.

"Let’s go eat, we’re driving a police car this time, so there’s no possibility of drinking," Gangye Yoshiko waved her little hand and beckoned Beichuan Si to get into the car.

But to be honest, Beichuan Si was still dubious about her claim.

Despite Gangye Yoshiko’s current insistence on her ’not drinking, not knowing how to drink, and there being no chance of drinking’, Beichuan Si just didn’t believe it.

But considering there were still trains to catch back home, Beichuan Si didn’t refuse either.

Then—

"Drop me off at the fork in Bunkyo District, please," Beichuan Si told the driver sitting in front.

"Alright. Make yourself comfortable," the driver replied cheerfully with a smile, starting the car.

Yes, Beichuan Si and Gangye Yoshiko went out for a meal.

And then Gangye Yoshiko drank again.

Beichuan Si took Gangye Yoshiko on the train, barely managing to get her home.

Thank goodness the fare was reimbursed by Gangye Yoshiko—

"Turns out there was drinking after all," Beichuan Si decided to disbelieve every word Gangye Yoshiko said from then on.

This woman, whenever she mentioned alcohol, was absolutely full of lies and not the least bit credible.

But that was all right too; on the train, Beichuan Si could sort through his own gains.

Beichuan Si looked at the data column.

Skipping over the unchanged data fields such as name, Beichuan Si’s body value had officially reached 75 points, but the note behind it remained unchanged, still at seven times that of an ordinary person.

After all, each increase from there required an exponential improvement, and probably a body composite figure of 80 points was needed to scrape the edges of eight times.

The total amount of death energy had risen from 200 to 210, with healing, mutation, and shaping behind it. (The previous data was written incorrectly, but the Chapter is locked and cannot be edited, so it is corrected here.)

After driving off the tired woman, the skill point number rose by 4 points, breaking the 12.5 skill point threshold and reaching the 16.5 skill point mark.

"There’s no point in continuing to accumulate now."

Beichuan Si murmured to himself and decided to spend these 16 skill points to enhance his basic death energy application skill.

His current level of basic death energy use was ’Advanced Mastery’.

Using skill points to enhance could make the basic death energy use become ’Intermediate Mastery’.

The system’s explanation was very straightforward—

Intermediate Death Energy Application: All small skills related to death energy are enhanced to a certain extent.

Yes, ’Intermediate Mastery’ of death energy application brought an all-around improvement.

That was the main reason why Beichuan Si insisted on accumulating 16 skill points before enhancing.

skill points could bring about a comprehensive improvement, something that single enhancements couldn’t achieve.

With that in mind, Beichuan Si didn’t hesitate further, reaching out to activate ’Intermediate Death Energy Application’.

’Would you like to activate Intermediate Death Energy Application?’

Naturally, Beichuan Si chose ’Yes’.

And right after activation, Beichuan Si could clearly sense the death energy that had been surging within his body had indeed changed.

He didn’t rush to check his status. Instead, after the taxi arrived and he got out, Beichuan Si extended a finger.

On his finger, a strand of deep black death energy swirled.

The color of the death energy had turned from a faint black to a deep black, giving off a cold and chilling feeling that made anyone looking at it feel shivers without even being cold.

The enhanced usage of death energy had brought the intensity of the death energy up a notch, which explained the comprehensive improvement.

Beichuan Si retracted his finger.

His skill points were down to 0.5 points, but Beichuan Si wasn’t distressed.

After all, good steel was used on the cutting edge, so this enhancement wasn’t a loss at all.

He located the direction of his home, bowed his head, and started walking towards it, all the while not forgetting to take out his phone and browse through the information on it.

Beichuan Huili, Nakajima Michika, Shen Gu Mirai... even Nakano Youko had sent messages to Beichuan Si.

Apart from Nakano Youko’s thank you message, the other three people were all asking when Beichuan Si would likely be coming home.

Beichuan Si decided to reply to each one.

Since everyone was so concerned, it wouldn’t be right not to reply properly.
