Su Binglan said smilingly, “That’s the beauty of makeup.”
Su Yi lightly touched his cheek, chin, and neck to see if it was his actual skin.
Even his hands resembled a woman’s. He muttered, “l never knew how amazing makeup was.”
Although the Sacrificials were typically calm, they were shocked at Su Yi e s transformation. They even gasped.
Su Binglan said, “I’ll teach you all to use makeup too. Then, you can do it yourselves or help each other. Using traditional disguises may still get you caught, but not makeup.”
She did not need to use heavy makeup on Su Yi. Instead, she slightly changed his skin tone to make him look different. She continued, “Although your appearance will change with makeup, you must also learn to walk and talk like a woman to make it more convincing.
“Once you learn advanced camouflage, you can carry out stealth missions. You must also learn to interrogate once you’ve captured criminals and spies so even the toughest people will spill their secrets.
“Interrogation is difficult, so 1 will teach you various methods to get what you need from your targets.”
‘There are various interrogation methods?’
The Sacrificials had yet to digest Su Binglan’s makeup techniques, but she already started discussing something new. Even so, they could only listen attentively.
They could not help but wonder what terrifying interrogation methods Su Binglan could possess.
She said, “We don’t necessarily need to use those interrogation tools to get the criminals and spies to spill information and secrets. We can also attack from their weak spots.
“Some spies have undergone strict training, so they can endure most torture instruments you use. However, we can use psychological warfare.
“That means we must observe and understand our victims’ microexpressions through their words. Most might seem expressionless, but it’s an unavoidable trait that they will reveal subtle expressions.
“By catching these things, we can break through their pretenses. We can also consider using drugs during interrogation. Such drugs can make the spies hallucinate and weaken them, making the spies voluntarily reveal their secrets. ”
Su Binglan’s explanation once again shocked the Sacrificials. They had never heard of microexpressions, hallucinogenics, and psychological warfare. Even so, those who had undergone strict training could be resistant to drugs. Although concocting hallucinogenics was cumbersome in this era, Su Binglan could make them. If not, she would not have suggested it. She found such things to be elementary compared to the Sacrificials.
“After learning to properly disguise yourselves and live among commoners without being discovered, you will have a second profession.”
‘A second profession?’ The Sacrificials thought.
Su Binglan continued, “For example, you’re simply a shop manager if people perceive you as such. Therefore, people would never suspect you of being spies, no matter where you go or what you do.
“You must also possess fundamental medical knowledge. Even if you can’t become a doctor, you must be able to identify herbs in the wilderness to heal wounds. After all, you must possess survival skills in the wild.”
The more Su Yi and the others listened, the more impressed they were with their new master. They initially thought they had nothing more to learn, but after meeting Su Binglan, the Sacrificials realized they knew nothing.
They wanted to become all-rounded talents, as Su Binglan had mentioned. Then, the Sacrificials could help their master in many more things and carry out more missions.
After learning these things, they would become more valuable instead of returning to the shadows as mere Sacrificials.
Su Binglan told them what she wanted them to learn and the future missions she would give them.
Since it was lunchtime, Su Binglan told the Sacrificials to rest. She planned to make lunch now and continue teaching them later. When she dismissed the Sacrificials, they instantly returned to the shadows and suppressed their presence.
If they did not intentionally appear, none would realize they were hiding in the Su familys house.
Su Binglan thought of something and spoke toward the ceiling, “You don’t need to hide in the shadows. You will no longer be the Sacrificials you once were. Instead, I will groom you to become shop managers. You can stay in this courtyard now.”
Su Yi and the others were grateful to live in the open instead of hiding in the shadows. They could only look at their new master with gratitude, saying, “Thank you, Master.”
Soon after, Su Binglan made lunch. The family was curious about what she would make this time.
Since every shop, factory, and restaurant had reopened for business, Su Fengmao, Shen Qiuhua, and the others were busy.
Meanwhile, Su Wenwu and Ye Feiran returned to the Su family’s house after exploring the village and checking on the mala hotpot restaurant.
The duo hurried over to help when they saw Su Binglan preparing to cook. Su
Wenwu said, “What are you cooking this time, Sister? Let me help.”
He could not stop smiling, so Su Binglan could tell he was in a good mood. The latter realized something when she saw Ye Feiran’s expression. ‘It seems Feiran has confessed to Wenwu. That’s perfect.’
Su Binglan took the noodles from the cabinet and soaked them, saying,
“Didn’t I say I’d make escargot noodles today?”
Su Wenwu’s eyes lit up as he said excitedly, “Right, you’re making something new again. I’m looking forward to it.”
Su Binglan smiled. “Lower your expectations, Wenwu. You might not like the smell of escargot. Still, it’ll be delicious.
Su Wenwu said, “Stinky tofu doesn’t smell great either, but it tastes fantastic. People sold stinky tofu by the river last night during the Lantern Festival.
“Many people bought and enjoyed it, which means it’s delicious. The escargot noodles you mentioned must be similarly delicious. I don’t care how it smells if it tastes good.”
Su Wenwu looked at Ye Feiran and wondered what she thought about it. He asked, “Feiran, what do you want to eat for lunch?”
He was highly attentive regarding Ye Feiran. Su Wenwu knew he would enjoy whatever his sister cooked, but he could not just consider his thoughts. He also wanted to see what Ye Feiran wanted to eat.
The two had opened up to each other, and Su Wenwu no longer called Ye Feiran, his brother. Instead, he simply called her by her name. Ye Feiran heard Su Wenwu calling her name and felt pleasant.
She said, “Binglan’s cooking is always delicious, so I want to try the escargot noodles, too..
