Chapter 3: The Magical Thief

  Lin Hui got up early today, October 3rd. He still had to go to work. This was a part-time job he found before National Day and he didn't want to miss it.

  After a night of observation, Lin Hui's body was fine and could be discharged naturally. This was also agreed upon yesterday.

  At this time, a man knocked on the door and walked in.

  "Mr. Lin, I'm Liu's driver. Due to some unexpected things that happened in the company, Mr. Liu couldn't come himself and asked me to apologize to you. This is something Mr. Liu asked me to bring to you, hope you can accept it." The other person handed a small bag to Lin Hui.

  After saying a few words, the other party left.

  Lin Hui opened the bag and found a brand new mobile phone packaging box inside. After opening it, a brand new mobile phone appeared in front of Lin Hui.

  Looking at the phone in his hand, although he didn't know the exact price of this phone, but it was clear that it was absolutely not cheap. Lin Hui smiled wryly, he had lost a phone worth several hundred yuan, but instead got one worth several thousand yuan...

  Is this what they mean by "good fortune comes from disaster"? Not only did I get the heavenly artifact, but someone even sent me money and a cell phone.

  But thinking of the piercing pain that had penetrated his soul before, Lin Hui's heart still trembled involuntarily. Good fortune accompanied by high risk? No thanks, he didn't want to lose his life.

  At 8 o'clock, Lin Hui left the hospital and went directly to the foreign trade company where he was going to work part-time. This part-time job had been found before National Day, because of the National Day, there might be a shortage of staff, so finding temporary part-time workers is also a good choice for many companies.

  Three days, from 9 am to 5 pm every day, one hundred and fifty yuan per day. The tasks are not difficult, just translating materials and doing some miscellaneous work. In the past year or so in Jiangnan, Lin Hui has done countless part-time jobs, and this income is already considered relatively good. Of course, this job requires a certain level of English proficiency, it's a technical job.

  After going to the office in the morning, apart from registering and answering phone calls, there wasn't much to do. After lunch, Lin Hui took a document back to his seat, this was his task for the afternoon, he had to translate these English documents and then input them into the computer and print them out.

  After a while, Lin Hui suddenly felt something was wrong. Because of the need, the translated text had to be entered into the computer and printed out, so Lin Hui had to look at the original English sentence word by word and then type the translated text into the computer.

  At first, Lin Hui didn't notice anything unusual, but after a while, he suddenly realized that when translating every sentence into English, he could remember the original text with just a glance, even if it was a very long sentence.

  At this time, Lin Hui silently read a paragraph of five or six lines of English on the material, then closed his eyes and remembered almost all of it, with only one or two unfamiliar places not being very clear.

  "No way, isn't it 'photographic memory'?" Lin Hui was stunned for a moment. His memory was good, but not to the extent of being exaggerated. Now he felt that although he hadn't reached the level of having an abnormal "photographic memory", he believed that as long as he carefully read it three or four times, he would definitely be able to recite it word for word without any mistakes.

  "Could it be because of the fusion with Ling Tian's soul?" Lin Hui thought to himself.

  Lin Hui thought about it more and more, and became increasingly convinced that this was a possibility. Otherwise, how could his memory have become so abnormal?

  For a whole afternoon, Lin Hui was in an excited mood. He still underestimated the benefits of merging with the other's soul, even memories could be merged.

  At five o'clock in the afternoon, after saying hello to the person in charge, Lin Hui left the company.

  As he walked to the bus station, Lin Hui was in a great mood. Thinking about what had happened over the past three days, Lin Hui couldn't help but feel a little emotional, although it was a short time, but its impact on him was absolutely huge.

  "I'm really sorry, I didn't see..."

  At this moment, Lin Hui's eyes suddenly condensed, and he saw a young man not far away who seemed to have bumped into a girl. The things in the other person's hand also fell to the ground, and at this time, the young man was constantly apologizing with his mouth, and he squatted down to help the girl pick up things.

  What attracted Lin Hui was not what the young man said, but his left hand. At this time, the other's hand had already reached into the girl's bag, and the girl's attention was focused on the things on the ground, without feeling the other's movements.

  Pickpocket!

  Two words suddenly floated in Lin Hui's mind. Although the other party concealed it very well, but from this angle, he could see the other party's movements.

  "Sorry, really sorry..." The pickpocket said with a apologetic face after picking up the stuff, then hurriedly left.

  Lin Hui knew that the other party had already succeeded at this time. The mobile phone taken from the girl's bag was in the other party's right pocket.

  Master, it's settled then...

  Seeing that hand hastily walking in his direction, Lin Hui suddenly had a strange feeling: he could easily steal the phone back.

  Lin Hui was startled by this idea, but as the other person got closer to him, this idea became stronger and stronger, and it felt like there was nothing in the other person's bag that he couldn't take away.

  Is it that soul again? It can't be true, right?

  Lin Hui was really a bit itchy, not that he had a habit of stealing things, but he wanted to verify his own feelings.

  In almost an instant, Lin Hui made a decision, and whether it was true or not would be known after trying.

  At this time, the other person was already one meter away from Lin Hui. Lin Hui subtly took a small step to the side, and since the other person was eager to leave and not paying close attention, their shoulders slightly bumped into each other.

  "Sorry..." Before Lin Hui could even open his mouth, the other person hastily spoke up, a hint of unnaturalness flashing across his face.

  "It's okay." Lin Hui smiled and indicated it didn't matter.

  Watching the other person's hurriedly leaving back, and looking at the white iPhone in his hand, a faint smile flashed across Lin Hui's face.

  That feeling was actually real, Lin Hui didn't know how to describe his emotions anymore. Just as he was about to make a move, he suddenly felt like an old hand at stealing, it felt so natural, although the action was a bit awkward.

  The entire action was smooth and effortless, completed in an instant at the moment of collision.

  "Is this okay too?"

  Although he was extremely shocked in his heart, after experiencing so many unbelievable things, Lin Hui's resistance to shock also increased a lot, otherwise he would have been shocked to death long ago.

  Looking at the phone in his hand, Lin Hui only then reacted, things hadn't been exchanged with others yet, he hadn't thought of embezzling this phone.

  Lin Hui looked up and saw a girl who was still tidying up her belongings in the distance, so he hurried over.

  "Hey" walked up to the other person's side, Lin Hui said.

  Wu Mengqi was organizing the materials in his hand, suddenly heard this voice subconsciously raised his head, a trace of unexpectedness flashed across his face, as if he didn't expect the other person to be talking to him.

  "Anything wrong?" Wu Mengui asked as she saw Lin Hui standing in front of her.

  As Wu Mengqi raised her head, Lin Hui's eyes also flashed with a hint of astonishment. This was an absolutely stunning face, with delicate white skin that seemed almost translucent and radiant. Not to mention the devilish figure, this captivating face alone was enough to enthrall countless people.

  Although he was shocked in his heart, Lin Hui's expression on his face didn't change much except for that initial flash of surprise. Beauty is beauty, but it has nothing to do with him.

  "This should be your phone, right?" Lin Hui said, taking out the phone.

  Wu Mengqi looked at Lin Hui's phone in her hand, and a look of surprise appeared on her face. She quickly rummaged through her bag, only to find that her own phone was missing.

  "The person who just bumped into you is a pickpocket, be more careful next time." Lin Hui handed over the phone.

  "Thank you!" Wu Mengqi said with a grateful face after taking the phone, she really didn't expect that person to be a thief earlier, but now hearing Lin Hui say so suddenly understood. However, her two lively eyes still looked at Lin Hui with some curiosity.

  "How did you get it back?" Wu Mengqi asked curiously, since the thief had stolen it earlier, how did Lin Hui manage to retrieve her phone? Looking at Lin Hui, he didn't seem like an undercover cop at all.

  "Of course I sneaked it back." Lin Hui said with a smile, "The bus is here, I'll go first." Seeing her own bus arriving in the distance, Lin Hui waved goodbye to Wu Mengjie.

  Looking at Lin Hui, Wu Mengqi thought for a moment before speaking up, "Thank you, what's your name?"

  "Lei Feng..." Lin Hui shouted out loud, and then directly jogged towards the bus that was not far away.

  Hearing this, Wu Mengqi couldn't help but laugh out loud, her eyes fixed on the direction Lin Hui had run off in.

  "It's going to be a long wait again..." After a while, Wu Mengqi only discovered that the car on Lin Hui was the No. 18 bus she wanted to take, and after this bus passed by, it was unknown when the next one would arrive.

  "He looks like a student too, I wonder if he's from our school..." Wu Mengqi suddenly thought, because the terminal station of bus 18 is Jiangnan University, and it doesn't pass by any other schools. Thinking of Lin Hui's appearance earlier, a smile involuntarily appeared on Wu Mengqi's face.

  One smile can conquer the city...
