Chapter 4 I Want to Be a Detective

What? Are you going to confess again?" Wang Bin exclaimed, as time passed, they also dared to bring up that embarrassing incident in front of Lei Tian, after all, making fun of others is the source of happiness

"Hmph, what good does it do to say sorry? This fish is going to die," the girl said, her face full of grievance as she glared at him fiercely

On a rainy day, I am left speechless. "Is it easy for me to come up with good ideas? You shouldn't discourage me like this."

"I said, big sister, what do you want?" Lei Tian took two steps back. If it were someone else, they might have displayed the same dominance they had in high school back home, but facing such a lovely girl, Lei Tian found it somewhat difficult to act.

Lei Tian was excited and somewhat nervous as he extended that fine thread from his mind. Suddenly, Lei Tian discovered that unique perspective had reappeared. Although his eyes remained fixed ahead, the entire view within the carriage that the thread could perceive was under his control, akin to a panoramic vision.

The "Overlord Flower" is a standout among their peers, a tall and imposing figure named Lei Tian, especially with her bold pair on her chest, which has made countless lovesick men drool. Lei Tian did not expect that Li Hanguang, this guy, would be fond of such a fierce woman.

Doing it alone, how to do it, on a rainy day there is no money, no people, and in Nanning there is even less background, this kid must be running into walls everywhere, has his brain been damaged

His gaze swept across the carriage, and suddenly, he noticed a fellow in front who was drowsy. A thought struck Lei Tian, and in his mind, a light point extended a fine thread at his command, responding obediently.

Oh my goodness, this young man is beyond saving. Zhang Fuyang patted his head, realizing that this fellow is simply daydreaming.

What, the class flower fish? Lei Tian was somewhat speechless, truly unaware that there was a fish called class flower in the illustrated books.

Pah, what a dreamer!

Hehe, regardless of the type of fish, it is good fish once it is braised in soy sauce

"Nonsense, who isn't serious?" Yang Wuliang and the other three spoke in unison, as if they were united against the corrupt elements of the bourgeoisie

This light spot seems to be the core left by that thing. It is indeed quite remarkable, not in vain that my friends were left dazed for more than half a month and even lost their jobs.

"You, wanting to spy on me, is that really necessary? Old man, you might not be able to handle that fierce woman. Just make sure you don't throw your back out, haha." Lei Tian laughed, suddenly feeling a stir in his heart

What? Lei Tian did not react in time and suddenly saw a fist enlarging in front of him

As soon as he spoke, the other four burst into laughter; this kid is truly something else

At this moment, Lei Tian became increasingly anxious, carefully extending the fine thread. If anyone were to discover it, Lei Tian would immediately retract it.

Fortunately, moments later, Lei Tian discovered that even if he extended this fine thread in front of one of the individuals, that person remained completely unaware

Sitting on the bus back, Lei Tian continued to ponder the thread and the light points, existence is rational, yet this thing truly cannot be given a reasonable explanation

On a rainy day, there are no words; it is likely that these few individuals will find it difficult to selectively forget this embarrassing incident

After more than half an hour, the guy who had fallen asleep woke up. Lei Tian suddenly realized that his fine thread was being repelled, and no more images appeared.

"On a rainy day, don't be anxious. At least we all have jobs, and if necessary, we can support you for now." Li Hangong, who had just returned, looked at the worried Lei Tian and patted him on the shoulder. Despite Lei Tian's troubles lasting over half a month, their bond had actually strengthened, as they had remained steadfast in adversity.

Zhang Fuyang and the other two turned around in unison, while Yang Wuliang widened his eyes, and four pairs of large and small eyes waited for Lei Tian for a long while

Could it be that only I can see this thing? Lei Tian's heart filled with joy; if that were the case, he would no longer have so many concerns.

"I can't believe it, Lei Tian, why do you want to become a private detective? This is a job that involves walking on the edge of a knife and crossing through fire." Wang Bin no longer questioned it; others might not understand Lei Tian, but they knew that once this guy had a mischievous idea, it was impossible to pull him back, no matter how many oxen you had.

He let out a sigh of relief. The experiment was successful. Although he appeared completely normal just now, his heart was tightly wound up.

Indeed. Lei Tian became increasingly excited, as fine threads penetrated that guy's mind. Suddenly, a dreamlike scene similar to that of Vice President Hao appeared in Lei Tian's mind, and a new bubble began to form in the space of that light point.

Since it is related to truth and dreams, perhaps it is necessary to give this thing a name. Lei Tian suddenly had a thought arise in his mind.

The ground was covered with water, and several brightly colored fish were jumping about, clearly the culprit was the daydreaming classmate Lei Tian.

Seeing Lei Tian's serious expression, Yang Wuliang and the other three suddenly understood that Lei Tian was indeed not just talking

Damn. Lei Tian dodged just in time, barely avoiding the punch. Who would have thought that such an innocent-looking person could be so deadly, a real violent woman

With a loud clap, Lei Tian suddenly struck his own head forcefully, startling Li Hangong and also shocking Zhang Fuyang and the others who had just entered. This foolish lad, could it be that he has gone daft again? Such a strong blow, he must be careful not to injure his head.

Having watched a variety of peculiar films, such as Spider-Man and X-Men, one cannot simply refer to the light points as light points; that would lack creativity

Lost in thought, Lei Tian missed his stop and had to walk back. However, this fellow showed no signs of complaint; his eyes were bright, dreaming of the good dreams of a dreamer.

In such a situation, Lei Tian was not surprised; rather, it confirmed his suspicions. The fine threads indeed absorbed dreams

Puh, Lei Tian was struck hard by these four guys. "Peh, who is not grounded, who is talking nonsense, who is setting up a street stall? Am I that kind of person? I have made up my mind; I will leverage our photography department's expertise and become a private detective"

Peeping? Privacy? Photography?

This is a spotted fish, which can only be kept alive in clean water. You, you have infuriated me. The beautiful woman stamped her foot but did not strike again, giving Lei Tian a fierce glare, puffing her cheeks in anger as she walked away.

"You, hum, look at the good deed you've done." The girl pointed at the puddle, and Lei Tian immediately saw that the few goldfish he had thrown into the water were already floating belly up.

"Lei Tian, it is better to be more grounded in life," Zhang Fuyang said, patting Lei Tian on the shoulder and shaking his head

The angry demeanor unexpectedly exuded a unique charm. Lei Tian paused for a moment, quickly glanced around, and noticed a puddle left by the rain at the roadside. His eyes lit up, and in a few swift motions, he tossed several fish into the puddle.

"To promote the expertise of the photography department, I ask you, are you planning to engage in theft or photography?" Li Hangong's fingers trembled, and his tone was infuriating

"Oh my goodness, Lei Tian, are you having an episode?" Yang Wuliang pretended to reach for Lei Tian's forehead, checking if this kid was burning up with a fever.

Li Hangong's eyes widened in surprise, "Yaya, damn it, how do you know, have you been spying on my privacy?"

"You, you bastard." The woman, seeing how he treated her beloved fish, immediately began to stamp her feet in frustration

On a rainy day, he felt a sense of satisfaction, finally realizing that he had not suffered a loss

Indeed, in thunderous times, one must be down-to-earth and take one step at a time. Li Hangong looked at this young man with eyes full of compassion

"Is it really that delicate? It seems a bit too precious, doesn't it?" Lei Tian was taken aback

"I still despise you, private detective, you Sherlock Holmes." Wang Bin spoke frankly and without reservation

Haha, I have a goal now. Lei Tian jumped up excitedly

"Hey, buddy, you're not that fragile. But you, old man, when are you going to make your move? The Flower of the Overlord has some enhanced team members keeping an eye on her." Lei Tian joked, but he recalled the spring dream of Li Hanguang that he had inadvertently seen through a dream last night.

Without any subjects in a stupor, Lei Tian's mind wandered, and he couldn't help but drool, causing the few guys in front of him to feel quite disgusted. In front of Lei Tian, there were no beautiful women, only a middle-aged woman holding a little girl. Could it be that this guy has peculiar tastes?

"Oh dear, what is wrong with you? Can't you walk without looking?" Lei Tian in the illusion felt a jolt in his body, followed by the sound of glass shattering on the ground. Then, a fiery and crisp female voice splashed across his face.

"I am sorry, I am sorry." Lei Tian was taken aback by the girl's appearance and quickly apologized

Hmm, we understand that you are feeling down due to both a breakup and job loss, but please refrain from meaningless chatter. It's pointless, said Wang Bin with a look of consolation.

Lei Tian forcefully slapped Yang Wuliang's inappropriate hand, stating, "I am serious"

However, seeing that the woman had already walked far away, Lei Tian did not pursue her; otherwise, being perceived as harassing her would be quite embarrassing. He glanced at the fish that had turned belly-up, and Lei Tian's eyes lit up.

On a stormy day, Lei Tian does not wish to be regarded as a monster, for that would lead to being sliced apart

In the following days, Lei Tian rekindled the enthusiasm he had for job hunting before graduation, working early and late in search of a new home. However, a few days later, Lei Tian became frustrated as September arrived; the good positions had already been filled by others. With no experience and no background, and given that his major in photography was somewhat niche, finding a good job proved to be quite challenging.

In ancient times, there was a concept of nightmares, and although it is said to refer to a type of horse, it does not hinder me from borrowing the name. After all, it is a creature related to dreams. Thus, the thing that accompanies the shooting stars shall be called a nightmare, and the light points left behind after this nightmare fades will be referred to as the nightmare space. In any case, there is indeed a space within it. As for that thread, it would be better to call it the dream-weaving thread, a skill of entanglement. Hehe, Spider-Man has spider silk, and I have dream-weaving thread. Does that not mean I have the potential to be a dream hero?

"What confession? I am talking about work. I won't look for it anymore; I will do it myself." Lei Tian glared at Wang Bin, exuding a certain authority.

In a moment of mental return, Lei Tiancai saw in front of him a girl who was slightly shorter than himself, with an oval face, a ponytail, and a pure, adorable expression, looking at him with an angry gaze

The silk thread slowly reached out towards the dozing fellow in front, and under Lei Tian's control, it penetrated into the fellow's mind. In Lei Tian's eyes, the scattered filaments resembling a helmet enveloping the fellow's head indeed went unnoticed by anyone else, not even by the person sitting next to him.

Finally, Yang Wuliang could no longer bear it, "Lei Tian, you say you want to do it yourself, but what exactly do you mean? Do you intend to learn from your predecessors and set up a street stall?"
