Chapter 375: Chapter 316 For the Emperor (Five in One)_4

"Stop!"

"What’s the matter? Is there a problem?"

Bary squinted his eyes and asked.

"This tattoo, after a long time in the future, will it possibly..."

Su Ming raised his head and asked Bary.

"Hehe, are you afraid of it fading? Don’t worry! The tattoos I, Bary, create will absolutely not fade, unless you rip off this skin."

Bary said very confidently.

Upon hearing this, Su Ming secretly thought to himself,

"It’s over!"

"Do you have any concerns left, or can I start now?"

Bary asked again.

Before Su Ming could answer, Monica spoke up directly.

"Start the tattoo!"

"Okay, miss!"

Bary immediately picked up his tools and started to work.

Su Ming took a deep breath, ready to accept it gracefully, when,

Snap~

Suddenly, the entire shop lost power.

"What’s going on?"

Monica frowned.

Su Ming quickly sat up and, suppressing the joy in his heart, said,

"I don’t know, it seems like a power outage."

"How is that possible? This place hasn’t had a power outage in many years."

Monica responded, very puzzled.

"Miss, please wait a moment, I will check it out."

Bary said before going to inspect the house’s circuit breaker and meter.

Su Ming and Monica waited quietly, and after a few minutes, Bary came back, shaking his head,

"It’s not the circuit breaker, I don’t know what the problem could be, it looks like it won’t be fixed anytime soon."

"Ah, that’s too bad, no tattooing without electricity. We’ll have to try another day."

Su Ming put on his clothes and showed a very regretful expression.

Upon hearing this, Monica immediately said to Su Ming,

"Let’s go!"

"Okay, where are we going?"

Su Ming followed behind Monica.

"To another tattoo shop. There are more than fifty in this area alone, I refuse to believe they’re all out of power too."

Monica was unusually irritated that Su Ming hadn’t been tattooed.

Upon hearing Monica’s words, Su Ming’s face twitched, but he still said with a smile,

"How could they all be out of power with so many shops."

"Hmm."

Monica’s irritable mood eased a bit after hearing Su Ming’s words.

However, just as Monica and Su Ming reached another nearby tattoo shop, freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

Whoosh!

The entire area went out of power.

Shop owners came out one by one, confusedly discussing,

"What happened? Why is there a power outage?"

"I don’t know, maybe a line somewhere burned out."

...

Seeing this, Su Ming was also quite surprised and turned to look around.

At that moment, he saw Zhang Yi at the entrance of a remote alley, who peeked out his head and gave him an OK sign, indicating that everything was taken care of.

Su Ming had a slight smile on his lips, as expected, his own people were reliable.

At that moment, Monica took a deep breath and then said to Su Ming,

"Let’s not get a tattoo today."

"Shall we go back?"

Su Ming tentatively asked.

He was actually a bit nervous, afraid she might drag him into something unexpected.

"No, I’ll take you to a nice place."

Monica said calmly.

"Great!"

Su Ming quickly agreed.

Monica took Su Ming back to the car and left the area.

Half an hour later, Monica drove to a narrow crowded residential area, parked the car on the street, then got out and led Su Ming into the residential area.

Su Ming silently followed behind Monica, not asking any questions along the way.

Soon, Monica brought Su Ming to an old house, took out a key, opened the door, and said,

"Come in!"

Su Ming followed Monica inside.

He curiously inspected the interior; the house was not large, just over a hundred square meters. Although the furniture was clean, it was somewhat outdated.

In general, it was a very ordinary house.

Then, Monica led Su Ming to the inner room, where she pressed her hand against an interior metal wall.

Click!

Accompanied by a crisp sound, the smooth metal wall split open, revealing a downward staircase.

Su Ming watched this scene, slightly surprised, as he hadn’t expected there to be a secret passage here.

"Follow me!"

Monica led Su Ming down the stairs.

Minutes later, they reached the end, and their view suddenly opened up.

Su Ming looked at the scene before him and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

Before him was a golden beach, with fine and soft sand and colorful shells scattered about, shimmering under the light.

In front of the beach was a sapphire-like, clear miniature artificial lake, whose mirror-like surface occasionally rippled.

"Are you surprised?"

Monica took off her boots and socks, walked barefoot on the soft sand with her hands behind her back, enjoying the cool breeze.

"A bit."

Su Ming nodded slightly in response.

"This is my favorite place, my own secret place. I’ve always dreamt of warm beaches and vast oceans since I was young. But I know well that they are unreachable for me, so I created this place."

Monica turned to Su Ming with a hearty smile.

"It’s nice."

Su Ming could tell Monica had put a lot of thought into creating this place.

This artificial lake and beach were actually quite small, but what made them look so impressive was more reliant on virtual projection equipment, special lighting fixtures, and air circulation systems.

"Su Ming, you’re well-read and well-versed, may I ask you a question?"

"Of course, miss."

"Do you think there really are oceans in this world?"

Monica asked, somewhat moved.

Su Ming was also taken aback upon hearing this, as in this world, he too had never seen an ocean.
