Chapter 227 Waiting for the Right Opportunity
After eating and drinking his fill in the suitcase space, Li Qin stayed there for a while longer.
One reason is that it's not suitable to engage in strenuous exercise right after eating, and the other is that it's still early.
It wasn't completely dark outside yet.
Li Qinruo's sudden appearance could potentially trigger a riot.
Although he could use the Oblivion Curse to solve this problem, knowing its side effects would make him hesitant.
Li Qin did not want to use it on just anyone.
Especially those with whom there is no enmity.
Therefore, he preferred to stay in the space a little longer.
Moreover, he wasn't idle or bored while in the space.
Naturally, time didn't feel long.
By the time it was eight or nine o'clock, it was completely dark.
This is especially true in the countryside.
Only then did Li Qin leave the suitcase space and return to the outside world.
At this moment, all around was silent.
If an ordinary person were in such an environment, they would inevitably feel uneasy or even fearful.
But Li Qin remained calm.
He glanced around casually, and after confirming that no one was around, he immediately used the Apparition spell.
Li Qin's figure vanished from the spot in an instant.
When it reappeared, it was in a courtyard house in Beijing.
This is not the courtyard house at No. 95 Nanluoguxiang.
It was one of the four courtyard houses that Li Qin had hidden using the "Loyalty Mantra".
Although these courtyard houses were originally used to store supplies, that doesn't mean they could only be used for storing supplies.
These courtyard houses were all repaired by Li Qin using magic.
Although we lack some daily necessities, it's still enough to make temporary repairs here.
"Now we'll see if we can open for business tonight."
A look of anticipation flashed in Li Qin's eyes.
At this point, he had almost completely monitored the entire city of Beijing through his magic spells.
Now he just needs to wait for the right opportunity to arise.
Li Qin was actually a little worried that he would waste his time.
Although the country had only been established for a few years, Beijing was, after all, the capital, and its security was unmatched by any other place.
There must be many evils lurking in the shadows of Beijing, but on the surface, harmony is maintained.
If he's unlucky, Li Qin might also go home empty-handed tonight.
However, this possibility is unlikely.
With millions of people in Beijing, there are bound to be a few who do bad things.
Of course, Li Qin had no interest in dealing with trivial matters.
He only pays attention to relatively large issues.
For example, robbery;
This was extremely common during this period.
During the waiting period, Li Qin did not wait idly, but instead devoted part of his energy to studying.
I don't know if I've become smarter or if my learning ability has improved.
Now, whenever Li Qin is immersed in learning, he can always clearly perceive his ever-growing knowledge and wisdom.
This feeling is different from material satisfaction; it is more of a spiritual and mental satisfaction.
It also makes it even more addictive.
This is also an important reason why he suddenly developed a love for learning.
It's important to know that before he transmigrated, Li Qin wasn't exactly a poor student, but he wasn't exactly a studious person either.
Even when they go to school, it's mostly driven by utilitarian motives.
I don't actually enjoy studying at all.
Immersed in his studies, Li Qin lost track of how much time had passed.
Suddenly, Li Qin, who had been keeping his eyes closed, abruptly opened them.
A look of excitement flashed across his face.
Just now, through Asuka, we finally discovered a terrible incident that was taking place.
Without saying a word, Li Qin immediately put on the alchemical mask that changed his appearance.
As the magic within was activated, Li Qin's appearance underwent some changes.
Not only her appearance, but even her height and hair have all changed.
He had already changed into the brand new vest.
This disguise was created specifically for him to make it easier to take action.
Li Qin waved his hand, conjuring a full-length mirror:
After checking himself in the mirror and confirming that there were no flaws, he nodded in satisfaction.
"Snapped!"
With a crisp sound, Li Qinren had left the courtyard and appeared at the entrance of an alley in Beijing.
It was already past eleven o'clock.
It was already late at night, and everything around was pitch black.
Even if there are one or two streetlights on the street, the light they provide is very limited.
At least it couldn't illuminate the alleyway in front of us.
There's some truth to the saying that darkness breeds evil.
At that moment, a robbery was taking place in the alleyway in front of Li Qin.
Although Li Qin did not have night vision, he had used some exploration and perception spells to "see" what was happening in the alley.
At this moment, two men, completely covered from head to toe, each holding a gleaming short knife, were facing a woman in front of them.
More accurately, it should be women.
The woman appeared to be in her early thirties, and her attire suggested that she was at least married.
They may even already have children.
Most importantly, judging from the woman's attire, she must have come from a rural area.
Li Qin has had a lot of dealings with rural people.
Therefore, I have great confidence in my own judgment.
He also noticed that the woman was carrying a basket.
Besides some vegetables, there were also two large roosters inside.
Given that a few streets away was a black market in Beijing, Li Qin immediately knew that the woman probably wanted to buy something to sell on the black market.
As a result, they were targeted.
"As long as you obediently hand over the basket in your hand, the money on your person, and all the tickets, we will naturally not make things difficult for you."
If you don't cooperate, don't blame us for being ruthless. You might end up with a knife in your hand and a bloody one out.
Just as Li Qin was observing, the two robbers threatened the woman in front of them.
It seems to be done to increase persuasiveness.
As the two robbers spoke, they brandished their short knives once more.
Even in the darkness, the cold glint of the blade could still be seen.
A look of terror flashed in the woman's eyes as she faced the robbers' threats.
However, she did not hand over the basket; instead, she gripped it even tighter.
"Please, please, let me go, don't take my things;"
I'm selling these things to raise money for my child's medical treatment. If you take them, my child will be beyond saving.
The woman's tone was full of pleading.
His eyes were full of pleading.
The two robbers remained unmoved by the woman's pleas.
He seemed completely heartless.
His eyes remained fierce, and his tone remained cold:
"I don't care what you want to do, we're only giving you two choices now;"
One option is for you to voluntarily hand over your belongings and money, and we'll let you go after we get what we want. The other option is for us to kill you with a knife and then take what we want from you.
As they spoke, the two robbers moved closer to the woman at the same time:
"You'd better keep quiet. If you dare to make a sound, we'll send you to your death right now."
Meanwhile, another robber continued to make threats.
