Lin Wan’er (ni) scrutinized the nt and addressed Charlie Wade, saying, “Look, sir, the leaves of the Mother of Pu’er Tea resemble the artificial green nts sold in stores. Each leaf is wless and pristine, showing no signs of yellowing or curling at all.”


    Charlie Wade was in awe as he replied, “It withstands the harsh cold and snow of winter, and I believe it also endures the intense heat of summer. Common pests likely have no effect on it. We were concerned that the Mother of Pu’er Tea might struggle outside its native habitat near Dianchi Lake, but it appears our worries were unfounded.”


    Lin Wan’er (ni) nodded in agreement and said to Charlie Wade, “By next spring, it will flourish even more.”


    With a smile, Charlie Wade remarked, “Then you can harvest some leaves to create tea bricks. Not only will they taste exquisite, but they will also restore some spiritual energy. This is truly the finest tea.”


    Remembering something important, Lin Wan’er (ni) suggested to Charlie Wade, “Sir, perhaps you should investigate whether the leaves of the Mother of Pu’er Tea can assist in pill refining. This nt, imbued with spiritual energy, is likely unique. If it enhances the efficacy of the pill, it would be a much better utilization than merely brewing it for tea.” <h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Charlie Wade replied, “Currently, the recipes I use are all documented in the Nine Mysterious Heavenly Scriptures. I’m uncertain if incorporating the Mother of Pu’er Tea leaves into the recipe will alter its original effectiveness. However, I can experiment with the Rejuvenation Pill next time I refine a pill. The material cost for the Rejuvenation Pill is rtively low, so if it improves the efficacy, I can consider it for other pills in the future.”


    Lin Wan’er (ni) added, “From what I know about Chinese medicinal prescriptions, there are generally two types. One requires each herb to strictly adhere to the recipe, with precise dosages to achieve the desired effects. The other type offers a foundational recipe, where addingplementary herbs can lead to unexpected benefits. The Mother of Pu’er Tea, being a sacred tree that has endured heavenly tribtion, surely has leaves that are a rare treasure of heaven and earth.”


    Charlie Wade nodded in agreement, stating, “Miss Lin is correct. Many prescriptions are not fixed and need to be continuously refined. I will certainly give it a try when the opportunity arises.”


    At that moment, Charlie Wade’s phone rang, and it was a call from Li Yalin.<fn197a> ???s ??????? ?s ?????? ?? F?nd-Novel</fn197a>


    Charlie Wade answered, asking, “Inspector Li, do you have any updates?”


    Li Yalin replied quickly, “Mr. Wade, Ai has identified three potential suspects believed to be the three elders, spotted at Porto Novo International Airport in Benin this morning. These individuals took the earliest flight from Benin to South Africa.”


    Charlie Wade inquired, “Do you have their photos? Please send them to me.”


    “Yes,” Li Yalin confirmed, promptly sending a high-definition photo via WeChat.


    The image disyed three Asian men, appearing to be in their sixties or seventies, at the airport boarding gate. They wore nk and cold expressions, and there was a noticeable resemnce among them.


    Furthermore, it was evident that these three men carried little to no luggage, and the boarding gate indicated they were boarding a flight to Cape Town, the capital of South Africa, where a queue of passengers was forming.


    Charlie Wade asked Li Yalin, “Inspector Li, what specific details led Ai to determine that these three are suspicious?”


    Li Yalin exined, “Ai’s analysis shows that Benin shares a border with Nigeria, and the straight-line distance between Lagos, Nigeria, and Porto Novo, Benin, is just over 100 kilometers. Thus, the likelihood that the three elders chose this route is quite high. Additionally, they fit the profile of Asians. Most importantly, Ai believes their facial features are strikingly simr, indicating a potential blood rtion or gic connection.”


    As Charlie Wade examined the photo, he too felt that these three individuals stood out among the other passengers, sharing an unmistakable resemnce in their features.


    So, Charlie Wade turned to Li Yalin and stated, “I also sense something off about these three. If they truly are the three elders, they will undoubtedly transfer to South America after arriving in Cape Town. Inspector Li, please keep a close watch on their movements. If their next destination is indeed South America, we can be almost certain they are the three elders!”
