ix it.”

 

However, the high school girl didn't care at all: “It's all right, boss.
I just came to have a seat, can't I?”

 

After a little thought, he nodded.

 

“Of course, you can.”

 

He watched her carrying her small bag and sitting down on a chair in the cafe.

 

When the other party sat down, he could not help but be curious and quietly used his ability on her once.

 

Still.

 

It was his first time using his extraordinary power on an ordinary person.

 

She was completely 'stilled'.

 

Five seconds later, the high school girl moved freely again.

 

She thought for a while, then raised her hand and shouted, “Boss, I want a cappuccino.”

 

Shen Yi immediately said with a smile.
“I'll prepare it for you, please wait.”

 

Just as he thought, the person concerned did not even realize that she had been “stilled”.

 

He prepared the coffee and handed it to the high school girl.

 

“Thank you.” 

 

This time also she came to chat with Shen Yi, talking about some common problems and the pressure of the campus.

 

Shen Yi stood by her side, gently as a confidant, enlightening and comforting her.

 

The two talked for about an hour or so.

 

“Thank you.” She finally burst out crying and left with an umbrella.

 

Standing at the door, he looked at her departing back and was silent for a long time.

 

After experiencing all sorts of mysteries, he has always had a special sense of detachment when communicating with ordinary people.

 

It was as if the two were separated by an invisible wall.

 

Ignorance, is it happiness or misfortune? Shen Yi shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

 

After the high school girl left, he continued his experiments to fully master his power.

 

 Newly discovered rule:

 

If you want to “still” a target, ‌use your left hand to perfectly align with the target, as long as there is a slight deviation, it will fail. The power takes effect in an instant, and the distance seems to have no limit, but if there is an object blocking it in the middle, it will not work.

 

It could be interpreted as Shen Yi's hand launched an invisible “beam of light”, when the “beam of light” hit the object, it would be ‘still’ for five seconds.

 

Of course, this “beam” wasn't actually real light, and it won't be reflected by the mirror.

 

 During the period of stillness, even if he did anything to the party, the other party would not discover it.

 

However, it only last five seconds. After five seconds, the “still” state would be raised.
If the person's state was changed and they would be a slightly wiser person, then they would notice the oddity. If he wanted to “still” something again, he had to re-condense the coolness after the rest, and he couldn't do it simultaneously.

 

He tried it out so many times, but no matter whether or not he stayed focused, he needed a fixed five seconds to concentrate on the coolness in his palms.

 

In the end, he tried and found that the power would not work on him at all.

 

“Finally, it's not just a power to bluff and escape.”

 

He breathed a long sigh of relief with a smile of contentment and a clear sense of steadfastness on his face.

 

After the throughout testing, he recorded the rules about the new power, one by one, in his notes.

 

Then, he suddenly realized that he had nothing to do now.

 

The matter of the 'Quiet Word' was resolved, and the cafe was temporarily closed because of the door.

 

Plus, the trial of the new power was somewhat over.

 

The past two days, trouble was completely gone in an instant, and he had a rare leisure time.

 

He sat in a chair by the window and looked out of the cafe.

 

The rain was still pouring outside.

 

If it was to say.
There was still lots to be done, such as contact with the inner world, learning about the occult, the things to keep a cat, and money.

 

But there wasn't anything that needed to be done immediately.

 

Shen Yi charmingly brewed a cup of coffee, made a delicious snack, and placed it on the best-viewed table.

 

He leisurely walked over and sat down on one side of the table, ready to enjoy the time.

 

“Boss Shen.”

 

George walked in from outside the cafe with a smile and put away the black umbrella.
While Su Ling followed him without any expression on her face.

 

Shen Yi blankly stared at the coffee and snacks on the table.

 

Having spent two months together, he knew George well enough to know that the brief period of relaxation and peace was over.

 

After putting his umbrella aside George stepped forward: “Thank you for your help yesterday, because of that important information, the Quiet Word's power in Beland was crushed.”

 

He pointed at Su Ling beside him, who turned slightly sideways and seemed to dislike being pointed at.

 

George smiled and said.
“I want to celebrate here with her.
You have no problem with that, right?”

 

Shen Yi nodded with a smile, he actually had an opinion, but it was hard to say it.

 

“Of course.
My cafe is always open to friends, so tell me.
What's the matter this time?”

 

George's face showed an expression of ‘I can't hide anything from you, you've seen it all’.

 

“It seems that nothing can be hidden from you.
Indeed I'm not just here to simply chat.”

 

Shen Yi stood up, walked towards George who was not far away, and said with a smile, “I know, if nothing special happens, you won't bring her along with you.”

 

George's expression gradually became heavy and nodded his head.

 

“What I'm going to talk about is a dangerous man named 'Yare Villard'.”
