"I spit! It was a slip of the hand!" Catwoman was exasperated.
"Don't explain, I understand, this damned, uncontainable charm," Lin Chen sighed.
"Really... a slip of the hand..." Catwoman almost fainted.
"Wuwuwu, Taoist Priest, I have to work overtime today, I can't meet you in person," the intern psychologist said.
"It's okay, I'll pay you back this money soon."
Scarface saw Lin Chen easily earn tens of thousands of USD and was very envious, "You pretty boy, you should go find some rich women to support you, that's a quick way to make money."
"Am I that kind of person?"
Screech! A police car skidded to a stop at the side of the road.
Jill opened the car door and walked towards them. "Lin Chen, come with me!"
Scarface looked at Jill. "Hey, what a beautiful detective. I like it."
He couldn't help but reach out to touch Jill's face.
Jill grabbed him with a hold. "You bastard, you dare to assault a police officer!"
"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch!" Scarface yelled. "Detective, I'm just here to collect a debt."
Jill let him go and looked at Lin Chen. "You owe him money?"
"Yeah."
Jill turned to Scarface. "How much?"
"One hundred thousand USD."
Lin Chen frowned. "The amount is wrong!"
"How much is it then?" Jill's voice became a bit aggressive.
"Fifty thousand principal, fifty thousand interest, that's one hundred thousand," Scarface mumbled.
"A few months, and you charge fifty thousand in interest? You might as well rob a bank!" Lin Chen was speechless.
Jill gave Lin Chen three checks. "This is the reward money for the three criminals you caught yesterday, a total of one hundred and ten thousand USD."
Lin Chen took a look. "Two robbers for only one hundred thousand USD? Gordon is too stingy."
Jill stumbled, "Be content! It's equivalent to my two years' salary!"
"Your salary is indeed quite low," Lin Chen said with a chuckle.
Jill glared at Lin Chen, grinding her teeth.
Scarface trembled, "The two robbers from yesterday... were caught by the Taoist Priest? You also know Commissioner Gordon?"
"Well, of course!" Lin Chen tossed a check for fifty thousand USD into his hand. After thinking for a moment, he fished out a few more USD from his pocket and handed them over. "This is the interest!"
Scarface... "This interest is less than what I spend on breakfast."
Lin Chen drawled, "You think it's too little? Ask Detective Jill if she agrees!"
Jill was speechless, "Am I being used?"
Scarface didn't dare to say anything and pocketed the check, handing the IOU back to Lin Chen.
"Alright, we're square. I'll give you a free reading. Your head's looking a little…green. You might still have time to fix it if you hurry back!" Lin Chen said with a smile.
Scarface's heart skipped a beat. "Taoist Priest, are you saying I've been cuckolded?"
"What else?"
Scarface was furious. He took his underlings and stormed off towards his home.
The Livestream chat exploded again.
"The Taoist Priest is too savage! Instead of collecting a debt, he gave the guy a green hat!"
"Scarface looked so cute when he was flustered."
"He came in so proud, and he's leaving in a panic. Haha!"
"You people are so bad!"
"Taoist Priest's Livestream is so much fun, love it, love it!"
"I'm slacking off at work to watch Taoist Priest's Livestream, so happy."
"Upstairs, come to my office. I'm your boss."
Jill grabbed Lin Chen. "I need your help with something."
Lin Chen laughed. "Don't get so close. Don't you know you're very intimidating?"
Jill realized she was right up against Lin Chen and pushed him away. "I have serious matters to discuss."
"Spit it out, I need to get back to my livestream and make some money."
"My cousin is missing. It happened two hours ago."
"Two hours probably isn't enough to file a case, right?"
Jill nodded. "That's why I'm coming to you."
Having seen Lin Chen's livestream today after yesterday's incident, Jill was starting to believe he possessed some kind of spiritual ability.
"My cousin, Katie, went out to walk her dog today, but the Labrador came back alone. She didn't."
"And the Labrador looked terrified, like something awful had happened. My aunt and her family have been searching everywhere, but they can't find her."
Lin Chen's expression became serious. "Do you have a photo of her?"
Jill showed Lin Chen a photo on her phone.
It was a beautiful, fresh-faced blonde girl, smiling with her eyes crinkled into crescents. She was very cute, maybe eighteen years old.
Lin Chen activated Physiognomy. "Your cousin has a long lifespan; she's a fortunate person. This time should be without danger."
Jill said anxiously, "The problem is, where is she now? Was she kidnapped?"
"She was drugged from behind. I can't see who drugged her from her. But she's still nearby. I need to go there and see."
"Then let's go quickly," Jill said, pulling Lin Chen towards the police car.
"Wait, this car might alert the criminals. Let's take my motorcycle."
Jill hopped on the motorcycle. "Quick, get on behind me. You don't know the way."
Lin Chen had no choice but to sit in the back, holding onto Jill's waist. He hung the phone, which was livestreaming, around Jill's neck.
"I'll help you, and you help me with the livestream. This is how I make a living."
Jill had to agree.
The motorcycle roared to life, heading towards the western suburbs of Gotham City.
The livestream was buzzing with activity.
"Taoist Priest, hurry and save that girl."
"I'm so scared, the girl has already been hurt."
"Go, Taoist Priest, go!"
"Taoist Priest, my friend wants to know, what does it feel like to hug Miss Jill's waist?"
"Pulling the 'I have a friend' card, huh?"
