Chapter 144 - Lin Chen: He Just Helped the Water Friend Solve the Case, But He Actually Became a Dirty Thief in the Sea!

"Impossible!" Steve exclaimed, utterly incredulous.

"Nothing is impossible," Lin Chen said calmly. "He has a perfect alibi. He will play cards with several people in the afternoon and won't leave for a moment."

"But he killed me at noon!" Steve protested.

"He has a method," Lin Chen replied. "Call the police first, and I'll explain in detail."

Lin Chen glanced around. Behind him, Catwoman, Jill, and the widow sister were all hovering near the phone, watching curiously.

The widow sister, staring at his abs, said, "Quickly decrypt it—I have to go fishing and make grilled fish for you."

Catwoman leaned on the deck, twirling her hair. "Hurry up, I want to apply sunscreen again."

Poison Ivy came over and started giving Lin Chen a massage. Harley thumped his leg impatiently. Jill handed him a glass of juice.

Lin Chen shook his head, muttering, "Why are you women so gossipy?!"

Steve returned to the video, solemnly asking, "Master… is that woman involved with Lovren?"

Lin Chen nodded. "She's afraid you'd find out later and end up murdered along with Lovren."

Steve still looked confused. "Master… I still don't understand. How did he create an alibi?"

Lin Chen began explaining. "Lovren planned to kill you in the bathroom."

"So what?" Steve asked.

"Think about it," Lin Chen said. "How do you keep fish fresh on your fishing boat?"

Steve blinked, unsure why this mattered. "We keep them on ice in the cabin."

"Exactly. After killing you, Lovren would place your body in ice-cold water, slowing decomposition. When the ice melts, the water drains away without leaving a trace."

Steve was stunned. "If it weren't for this fortune-teller… I'd be dead! And they'd have my money too?"

"Too much!" Steve kicked the chair. "Lovren even planned to keep me fresh with ice cubes?!"

Lin Chen shook his head. "No need to be angry. Recognize the truth of these two. You have your money, and you can find someone young and beautiful after a divorce."

Steve asked cautiously, "Master… what will happen to them?"

"Definitely arrested. Ten years in prison is a minimum," Lin Chen replied.

Soon after, detectives lay in ambush. Lovren appeared, and before he could act, guns were pointed at him. He was arrested on the spot.

The two accused each other of masterminding Steve's murder, becoming enemies before even entering court. A long sentence awaited both.

Lovren, realizing he'd been exposed by Lin Chen, looked up at the sky and sighed, "It's my fault. I didn't watch Daochang's livestream!"

After this incident, Lin Chen's popularity skyrocketed.

Rice Collection Building, New York

Luther watched Lin Chen's livestream. "This Taoist priest… he's got something. He's already a Superman!"

His secretary hesitated, recalling Lin Chen's warning. "Boss… is he really going to send me to my death?"

Luther nodded. "The plan must be implemented. But for now, keep a low profile and stay away from that Taoist priest."

Lin Chen finished today's livestream and announced a surprise:

[Ding! Congratulations! You have obtained the method of fetal breath.Elementary level: Use skin Roar to inhale and replace mouth and nose. With practice, return to the baby state, infinite internal breath.]

He glanced at Catwoman and the widow sister. "Take this as a warning—don't be a scumbag. Be single-minded."

"I'm scared! What if the child isn't mine in the future?" Catwoman scoffed.

The others groaned. Harley muttered, "Selena… if the child isn't yours, isn't that obvious?"

Lin Chen teased further. "When will we start this process? I don't care whose child it is."

Catwoman froze.

The widow sister rolled her eyes. "Less than two hours of livestream a day, and you're still so diligent!"

Lin Chen grinned. "Aiming at me for fun, huh?"

"Definitely fun!" she replied.

He hugged the widow sister's knees. "This Daoist is angry. Let's die together!" With that, he suddenly jumped into the sea.

"Ah! You're crazy!" she yelled, slapping the water.

Lin Chen flailed dramatically. "Help! I can't swim!"

"Can't swim in the sea? After all your swimming practice?!" she snapped, kicking through the waves.

He continued, "I'm having a cramp! Help me!"

Harley and Jill shouted from the yacht. "Natalie! The priest is cramping! He's sinking!"

Catwoman jumped in, followed by three more "mermaids." Finally, the widow sister realized the trick and dove to pull him to safety.

Underwater, she saw Lin Chen wasn't struggling anymore—he was smiling mischievously. She realized this was another one of his routines.

He gestured to his mouth—signaling oxygen was low. She patted his shoulder and pointed to the surface, urging him to swim up.

Lin Chen then hugged her face, whistling fiercely to give her oxygen.

She was bewildered. "This… this thing can produce oxygen? What a pervert!"

They laughed, enjoying themselves, when suddenly a massive wave surged from below, tossing them meters into the air before plunging them back into the sea.

Catwoman swam over. "Are you all right?"

The widow sister's face turned red. She waved, annoyed, "Fine… but that dirty thief in the sea—watch out!"

"Dirty thief? In the sea?" Lin Chen shook his head.
