Chapter 210 - Chapter 210: Chapter 168: Just Come Back to the Police Station with Me and Confess Everything! (Five Thousand Word Mega Chapter)_3 (2/2)
Archaeological expert Old Lu didn’t smell the earth’s fragrance or fresh scent but a different odor altogether.
Suddenly!
Old Lu’s face turned ashen, and with a disgusted toss, he flung the clump of dirt to the ground, cursing, “Which little bastard peed here, damn it!”
The Art of Soil Sniffing isn’t so easy to master after all.
The stench of urine is really overpowering!
Old Lu felt his stomach churn, he dry heaved and felt completely befuddled.
A breeze blew by, bringing the cool of the evening, and the mist from the riverside began to rise, helping Old Lu to recover a bit.
He muttered to himself, “Looks like I’m not cut out for this. I have to learn from that kid Lin Chuan, after all, I’m an expert, not a brick specialist.”
…
The rays of the setting sun glinted off the river surface at Anling, the water shimmering with flecks of gold, occasionally disturbed by birds, creating ripples.
On the road beside the riverbank, a white SUV slowly pulled over to the side.
“Comrade Lin Chuan, there’s a dinner party tonight, are you going?” Shen Qianqian asked from the driver’s seat, turning to look at Lin Chuan.
Lin Chuan raised an eyebrow and asked, “You’re treating?”
“Of course not, I couldn’t possibly treat you, such a deity,” Shen Qianqian said with a self-deprecating smile on her sweet face, a touch of desolation in it.
Lin Chuan let out an awkward laugh, asking, “Then who’s the host?”
“Sisi’s treating.”
Shen Qianqian smiled.
“Her? Why would she invite me to dinner out of the blue?” Lin Chuan asked, somewhat surprised.
“All because you’ve been too outstanding, making my old classmate take notice,” Shen Qianqian teased, holding the steering wheel.
“So it’s my fault?”
Lin Chuan laughed and joked.
“Or should we blame me?” Shen Qianqian winked, revealing a knowing smile.
“Actually, it is your fault. If you hadn’t introduced this collaboration to me, I wouldn’t have gone to the Archaeological Research Institute, nor entered that tomb,” Lin Chuan laughed heartily.
Shen Qianqian also laughed, joking, “Then we should blame Director Zhang, he made the introduction, oh no, wait, it’s still your fault. Who told you to know all these bizarre things?”
“Cough, I need them for writing novels, you know that,”
Lin Chuan emphasized again.
Shen Qianqian’s smile grew broader, “Is your archaeology novel coming out soon?”
“Soon,”
Lin Chuan nodded.
“What’s the name of this novel?” Shen Qianqian inquired.
“Err…”
Lin Chuan grimaced, tentatively suggesting, “How about I tell you once it’s released?”
Shen Qianqian teased, laughing, “Oh come on, don’t your true devoted fans even deserve to know the title of the new book?”
“Of course, my true devoted fans deserve to know,” Lin Chuan said hastily.
“Then why aren’t you saying it?”
“Err, the new book is called ‘Touch Gold Notes,'” Lin Chuan said with a twitch of his mouth, resigning to reveal it.
“What?”
Shen Qianqian’s eyes widened, “Comrade Lin Chuan, I think you should skip the dinner party tonight and come straight to the police station with me to explain everything!”
