Chapter 361 Special Item: Danger Detection Chopsticks

Su Yang, who had plenty of experience, did not touch the two sticks. Instead, he sat on the ground and stared blankly at the sky.

In his daze, he started to think about a serious problem. If the special item that I obtain one day had a description that said, [Blow Up All Creatures Within A Ten-Meter Radius], I won’t be guaranteed safety even if I don’t pick it up, right?

‘After all, this ability was directly triggered.’

Su Yang felt a little off. ‘It seems dangerous…

‘Am I being paranoid because I’m bored?

‘Why not lie down for a while? It was boring anyway.’

Su Yang laid down in the courtyard.

Ever since he went to university and came to Shanghai, Su Yang had not returned home. In fact, he missed lying on the ground at home when he was young and looking at the blue sky and the white clouds. Those were his most relaxed moments.

Just as Su Yang was thinking, a WeChat notification sound came from the courtyard.

Su Yang summoned an interface to see which little cutie contacted him.

In the end, it was Chu Xia, the little cutie. Chu Xia texted, [Su Yang… the air-conditioning in your company is too cold. It makes me want to eat candy.] Su Yang was speechless.

‘What was the relationship between the two?

‘What did air-conditioning have to do with eating candy?!

‘If you want to eat candy, just say it. I won’t… buy it for you.’

Su Yang replied, ‘Eating candy is bad for teeth.

Chu Xia sent another WeChat message, [I don’t want my teeth anymore.]

For some reason, Su Yang felt very comfortable chatting with Chu Xia. He smiled and typed, (If you don’t have teeth, you’ll become an old lady.]

Then, he sent an old lady’s picture to scare Chu Xia.

It was not because the old lady was scary, but because the filter was a horror film filter that made her look green and cold.

At that moment, Chu Xia was having her lunch in Su Yang’s office. As long as she was in Su Yang’s office, she would be filled with inspiration and write very quickly. This was also the reason why she had saved up 100,000 words in the past few days.

This morning, she wrote ten thousand words in that morning alone.

During lunch break, she ate the lunchbox that she had brought from home. Her bright eyes looked around the office, and she was bored.

She was a skillful and diligent girl. Every morning, she would prepare lunch for herself.

There was a microwave in Su Yang’s company, but she would usually skip the time and heat it up before eating it.

From her perspective, the employees working the whole morning were very tired, and their lunch break was fixed, so they did not have as much freedom as she did. Therefore, she could go hungry for a while and wait for the employees to finish before she went to use them.

It was the same today. It was already past one in the afternoon. She saw that no one was using the microwave in the office, so she heated up her lunch and brought it back to the office to eat.

When she was having her meal, she thought of Su Yang. It had been almost a week since Su Yang left the company. She wondered how he was doing in the capital.

Hence, she took out her phone and started eating while typing a message to Su Yang.

After chatting with Su Yang for a while, Su Yang sent her a photo of the granny who looked like a ghost.

Chu Xia almost choked when she saw the photo.

She coughed a few times and quickly drank some water.

Back at her desk, Chu Xia quietly picked up her phone and deleted the message.

“This annoying fellow is getting more and more annoying

“Thank god it’s broad daylight. If it was night, would I still be able to sleep!?’

However, Chu Xia might have been shocked by the photo, so she didn’t want to continue the conversation. She continued to stuff rice into her mouth and changed the topic. (How was your trip to the capital?]

Within two seconds, Su Yang replied, [I am correcting you. I am not playing, I am working.)

Chu Xia smiled. She did not know why, but she really liked Su Yang acting all serious…

She replied, (Yes, yes, yes. The CEO is working.)

She continued, (Is the capital hot? I heard it’s even hotter than Shanghai. It’s more than 30 degrees.]

She felt that her question was normal so she continued to eat while waiting for Su Yang’s reply.

Moments later, his phone rang. It was WeChat.

Chu Xia picked up her phone.

Su Yang’s message read, [It’s hot. It’s super hot. When I went to the streets, I saw people dying from the heat. They were lying on the ground.)

Chu Xia spat out her food when she saw Su Yang’s message.

She scrambled to clear her desk, then felt… ‘there was no way to eat this meal. The lunchbox was full of rice dregs, how can I eat it…’

She touched her flat stomach. It was only 30% full.

‘Forget it, that’s enough. Don’t eat too much. Eating too much will make you gain weight. This annoying person will definitely laugh at me.

‘Why is this annoying fellow laughing at me?’

Looking at the annoying fellow’s WeChat message, Chu Xia got angrier the more she thought about it and decided to ignore him.

Girls are like that… men would never be able to guess what they’re thinking.

At that moment, Su Yang was lying on his back on the ground. He waited for Chu Xia, but she did not come. Feeling bored, he opened the webpage.

The internet was flooded with news about pork. It was all about how pork had started to rise everywhere, and many people joked that they could not afford to eat pork anymore.

Su Yang recalled that he had gone to the supermarket to buy pork not too long ago, and it did seem to have increased a little. However, he did not expect that this matter would get worse. He hoped that the country could handle it well.

Even though he was enjoying the profits from the pork and had made a lot of money in the stock market, he wanted the country to be peaceful.

He felt that… he was becoming more and more worried about the country and the people. He was simply the best person in the world!

Looking at the silver chopsticks that were still lying on the ground without any reaction, Su Yang stood up and went to the backyard. Qing Zhu was soaking her feet by the river. She was still wearing a green Han attire, and her black hair was fluttering in the wind. She looked like a classic beauty that had walked out of a painting

Her feet that were soaked in the water were as white as jade. They swayed slightly in the water, and even the harshest aficionado in the world would not be able to find fault with them.

Su Yang admired Qing Zhu’s feet for a while before walking over.

Hearing Su Yang’s footsteps, Qing Zhu turned around. There was a hint of panic and fear in her bright eyes. She quickly got up and wanted to bow.

Her feet carried the river water and splashed it on the shore, wetting the ground and her clothes. The river water flowed down her bare ankles and slowly spread on the ground like a beautiful flower.

“Master.” Qing Zhu bowed slightly and wanted to leave.

Su Yang held her shoulders and told her not to be anxious. “Don’t look at me like you’ve seen a ferocious tiger. Let’s sit down first.”

Qing Zhu’s shoulders were thin and bony. Su Yang felt that if she was really an ancient woman, she would not be from the Tang Dynasty. Patting the bamboo, Su Yang loosened his grip and took off his shoes. He imitated Qing Zhu and placed his feet into the river.

The river water was cold. As soon as his feet went in, he felt a cooling sensation spread from his feet to his brain.

No wonder Qing Zhu liked to soak her feet in the summer water.

When Qing Zhu saw Su Yang mimicking him, she avoided his gaze. However, she still lifted the hem of her Han attire and sat beside Su Yang, placing her feet into the river.

Seeing that Qing Zhu was no longer hiding, Su Yang asked, “Are you afraid of me?”

Qing Zhu shook his head. “Qing Zhu is not afraid of Master. It’s just… I don’t like wearing clothes as thin as cicada wings, and I have to hold an umbrella. It feels… very shameful.”

Su Yang nodded. It seemed like that was the reason.

He said, “After I went back, I thought about it. It’s indeed hard on you. So, I’ve decided that you only need to hold the umbrella if I need to turn invisible. After all, your umbrella will only take effect if you use it, so I’ll have to ask you for help.”

Qing Zhu looked at Su Yang in surprise. The gentleness of a classical woman was evident in her frown. “Really?”

Su Yang nodded. “Then let Gru wear the raincoat. Anyway, it has nothing to do at home.”

Qing Zhu said hesitantly, “Then will Gru… not like it?”

Su Yang recalled how excited Gru was when it put on the raincoat last night and how it looked like a scarecrow after dressing up. He smiled and shook his head.

After appeasing Qing Zhu, Su Yang chatted with Qing Zhu for a while longer. After calming down the new little demon in the house, he left the backyard.

He calculated the time and felt that it was about time for the system introduction of the two silver chopsticks to appear. As expected, when he returned to the front yard and turned on the system, a system interface appeared on the chopsticks.

(Chopsticks +1: Obtained a special abilityDanger Detecting Chopsticks.]

Su Yang was puzzled.

‘Danger Detecting Chopsticks? ‘What does danger detection have to do with chopsticks? How are these two related?’

Su Yang clicked on the ability and the description of the ability popped up.

[Danger Detecting Chopsticks] Ability: When you bring this pair of chopsticks with you, all dangerous items, including but not limited to listening devices, pinhole cameras, knives, poisonous food, and so on, will automatically send you an alert.

Restriction 1: This effect can only take effect within 5 meters.

Restriction 2: This ability only detects passive threats. If the other party is able to kill you with a piece of paper, you won’t get an alert if the paper isn’t a threat to regular people. However, if the other party has poison with them, you’ll get an alert even if you don’t come into contact with it.

Restriction 3: This ability is only effective on artificial objects. The danger of non-human crafts such as water, fire, and electricity will not trigger any alert.

Note: Your Majesty! Let this servant test the poison first!

When Su Yang saw this ability, her eyes lit up. He felt that… she needed this ability!

As he progressed, the threat around him increased.

He could use [A videotape to make up for regrets.] and record the images in his memory to attack his enemies. Even though his enemies did not have these special items, they would definitely want to secretly take pictures or eavesdrop on him to attack him.

So, Su Yang actually wanted to prevent all of this, but… there was no other way.

It turned out that he had placed his hopes on Little Deeny. She was becoming more and more powerful. In the future, she might be like the artificial intelligence in the movies. He could directly control the wifi, control the electronics, and make all the recording devices fail.

However, the distant water could not quench the immediate thirst. Even if Little Deeny could develop to that extent in the future, Su Yang could not possibly wait for her.

He did not expect to obtain such an item today.

Furthermore, this item not only prevented people from spying on him, but it also had the ability to detect poison. This was a pleasant surprise.

That way, he would be much safer. Su Yang felt that his luck was pretty good. He picked up the chopsticks on the floor and thought about how he should carry them with him. He could not put these two chopsticks in his pocket, could he?

Just as that thought crossed his mind, a small silver thread appeared from the top of the two toothpick-shaped chopsticks. The threads from the two chopsticks touched each other, and another thread extended from the other side of the chopsticks.

Moments later, an item that looked like a necklace appeared before Su Yang.

Su Yang held onto the thread and felt that it was cold, soft, and metallic.

There were two small holes on the top of the chopsticks, which were connected by the thread. Su Yang was holding it, and it looked like an Indian necklace with wolf teeth.

Su Yang put the necklace around his neck. Before he could move, the silver thread extended by itself and touched each other, forming a closed loop. Su Yang placed her chopsticks on his neck.

It was obviously made of silver, but it felt weightless on the neck.

Su Yang touched the chopsticks and walked into the villa. When he reached the toilet, he looked at himself in the mirror and felt that… he looked pretty.

He walked around the house, trying to trigger the item’s special power to see what effect it had.

There was no reaction from the living room, no reaction from the dining room, and no reaction from the toilet. However, when he arrived at the kitchen, the two chopsticks in front of his chest touched each other lightly, creating a crisp sound.

It sounded like a wind chime.

He took a step back, and the chopsticks separated again.

He took another step forward, and the clanging sound appeared again.

Su Yang tried to walk forward, but the more he walked, the more urgent the clanging sounds became. It was as if he was warning him not to seek death.

Su Yang found it interesting.

He looked around the kitchen. Based on the distance of the warning, it should be a dangerous item.

From the looks of it, even though this item would not tell him what kind of dangerous item was next to him, it would tell him where the danger was.

He could use this to determine what was wrong.

Su Yang felt that this ability was even more useful.

After studying the item’s ability, Su Yang suddenly recalled that, normally speaking, the recipes that had little monster beans as an ingredient would have additional special abilities.

Thinking of this, he took down the chopsticks on his neck and turned on the system again. He pulled down the item introduction for the [Danger Detecting Chopsticks), intending to see if the chopsticks had any additional abilities!
