Chapter 198 - Taken Advantage Of (Second Update for Monthly Tickets)

"...How do you know everything?" Xia Chujian looked at Huo Yushen, asking with a strong desire to learn, "Last time it was Niapula, this time it's Dalahe... Where do you learn all this?"

Huo Yushen didn't answer at all. He looked up, activated the remote, and summoned his Flying Vehicle, saying, "Go wait in my Flying Vehicle for ten minutes."

Xia Chujian wasn't disappointed at not getting an answer.

Anyone could guess that such things were top-secret intelligence. She would be alarmed if Huo Yushen told her; it was normal for him not to say anything.

She pointed to the "middle-aged man" she was still carrying on her shoulder, "Then what am I supposed to tell him?"

That wasn't Huo Yushen's concern.

Without a word, he took Xia Chujian's arm, intending to lift her into the air.

But Xia Chujian pushed him away, proudly saying, "I can fly myself."

Then she activated the Shao Siming Black Silver Mecha and shot into the sky.

Huo Yushen remotely opened the door of the Flying Vehicle, and Xia Chujian immediately darted inside.

The Flying Vehicle's door closed automatically, and Huo Yushen put it in stealth mode. Then he opened the Special Security Bureau's encrypted channel on the Quantum Optical Brain and began assigning tasks.

[Inspector]: Baxia Team, assemble. An anomaly has occurred in the South District of Mulan City. Arrive on-site to collect samples within three minutes.

Then he shared the coordinates.

Three minutes later, Baxia Team, one of Huo Yushen's most elite action teams, arrived at the scene where Huo Yushen was.

When they saw the mottled corrosion marks and scattered flesh and blood, they all felt a chill.

"Inspector Huo, mission complete in five minutes."

They never questioned, only acted according to Huo Yushen's instructions.

Five minutes later, all the corroded soil, walls, and wooden door and window frames in the alley were taken away.

The remnants that couldn't be taken were blasted with high-intensity Chi Yang Fire from their specialized equipment, carbonizing all the residue and breaking it down into the smallest constituent particles.

When an object is broken down into particles, it loses all its characteristics, becoming like the natural elements of heaven, earth, water, fire, and wind, impossible to trace back to any origin.

Five minutes later, they left with all the collected evidence.

Huo Yushen returned to his stealth Flying Vehicle and said to Xia Chujian, "All traces below have been erased. The Mulan City Punishment Department will come to handle the aftermath later."

Xia Chujian: "…What aftermath?"

"Ninety-nine percent of the humans or Humanoids within a ten-mile radius of this area died from the Dalahe's Mental Strength attack just now."

Xia Chujian: "…"

She clenched her fist, angrily saying, "Are these things so lawless? Is there no way to kill them in advance?!"

The destructive power was simply too great, wiping out everything within a radius of miles.

The death toll was also getting higher and higher, from hundreds to thousands, and it would eventually reach tens of thousands.

Xia Chujian increasingly understood what it meant for lives to be as cheap as grass.

Huo Yushen said in a low voice, "…There was no way before, but now there is a unique way."

"…Hmm?"

"You."

Xia Chujian was baffled, "…Me? What about me?"

Huo Yushen didn't continue, giving her a deep look, "You… can go now."

Xia Chujian: "…"

Huo Yushen was too moody.

Xia Chujian really wanted to slap him and make him speak properly.

But she could only think about it in her heart, not daring to actually do it.

What a joke! If she really did it, Huo Yushen could send her to be reincarnated three times with one slap! Xia Chujian shrank her neck, turned her head, and saw Quan Yuxun, and she shook her head in resignation.

Quan Yuxun was still unconscious, and she had to dutifully carry him down.

Thinking of the creditor-debtor relationship between her and Quan Yuxun, as well as the employment relationship, Xia Chujian couldn't just ignore him.

She hoisted the unconscious Quan Yuxun onto her shoulder and politely said to Huo Yushen, "Thank you, Inspector Huo."

Huo Yushen took a freshly made face mask from the storage room of his Flying Vehicle and handed it over, saying in a cold voice, "Give me the face mask on your face, and you wear this one."

Xia Chujian quickly took off the face mask on her face and put on the replacement Huo Yushen gave her.

Looking in the mirror again, she found that there was no difference in appearance at all. It was exactly the same.

Xia Chujian curiously asked, "Inspector Huo, how do you have this kind of face mask too? Are they mass-produced?"

Mass-produced my ass! This was a replica that Huo Yushen had seen on Xia Chujian's face ten minutes ago, and immediately used a previously saved image to 3D print in the Flying Vehicle.

It only looked similar on the outside, and the specific material structure was completely different. It could only fool an amateur like Xia Chujian.

He needed the real thing as an important clue.

Huo Yushen didn't tell Xia Chujian the truth, but solemnly warned, "I'll let it go this time, but don't ever wear this face mask again. And don't let Quan Yuxun know I was here. Don't return this replica on your face to Quan Yuxun either. Just find an opportunity to destroy it in front of him."

Xia Chujian subconsciously nodded, touched the face mask on her face, and said, "Do you think I like it? It's just that I didn't pay attention. I don't even remember what this girl looks like. If it wasn't for the sudden mention of trafficking today..."

Xia Chujian composed herself, remembered what Quan Yuxun had said, and frowned, "Inspector Huo, Chief Quan said that human trafficking has formed an industrial chain in the South District of Mulan City. Does our Special Security Bureau know about this?"

She already regarded herself as a formal employee of the Special Security Bureau, so the phrase "our Special Security Bureau" came out very naturally.

Huo Yushen glanced at her and said casually, "We know."

"You know and you don't care?!" Xia Chujian was even more surprised.

Huo Yushen said, "Human trafficking is not under the jurisdiction of the Special Security Bureau."

"...Ah? Then who is in charge? It wouldn't be the Disciplinary Department of the Punishment Department, would it?"

The Disciplinary Department was the superior organization of the Punishment Department, and they were all in the same system.

Huo Yushen nodded, "It's the Disciplinary Department of the Punishment Department."

Xia Chujian seemed to understand something, chuckled twice, hoisted the still unconscious Quan Yuxun onto her shoulder, and jumped out of the Flying Vehicle.

Quan Yuxun's condition was more serious this time, and he was in a state of deep unconsciousness.

After thinking about it, Xia Chujian simply took off the fake face mask on her face, scratched a lot of marks on it, held it in her hand, and put on a self-heating large mask.

When Quan Yuxun's security personnel came over, Xia Chujian was surprised and delighted, "Great, you're all okay!"

The security personnel looked at each other, their faces pale and listless, and their Mental Strength had dropped by at least two levels.

This was called okay?

Of course, compared to those who were already dead, they were indeed okay.

The leader of the security personnel touched the Supernatural Helmet on his head and said with lingering fear, "...Fortunately, Young Master Quan spent a lot of money to get us each this kind of Supernatural Helmet, which can defend against A-Rank Peak Mental Strength attacks."

In addition to themselves, who were at least A-Rank Peak Mental Strength, the combination of the two allowed them to avoid dying on the spot, but the price was that their Mental Strength level had dropped severely.

They didn't even know if this downgrade was permanent or temporary.

If it was permanent, it would be worse than death.

Xia Chujian looked at the still unconscious Quan Yuxun and said, "Then it seems your condition is better than Chief Quan's. He passed out and hasn't woken up yet."

The leader of the security personnel felt that Xia Chujian's posture of carrying Quan Yuxun was a bit eye-catching, like carrying a sack of potatoes...

He quickly took Quan Yuxun from her with another person, and the leader personally carried Quan Yuxun on his back.

Xia Chujian was relieved, and then shook the severely damaged face mask at them, saying, "This can't be used anymore. I'll throw it away as trash."

The security personnel had no objection.

These face masks were originally disposable items for them.

Even if they were recycled, they would be centrally destroyed.

Looking at the extent of the damage on Xia Chujian's hand, it was impossible to repair it.

"Ms. Xia, please do as you wish. We will tell Young Master Quan when he wakes up."

Xia Chujian breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I remember your Quan Family's Flying Vehicle has a Medical Cabin, quickly take Chief Quan back for treatment! This Mental Strength attacks the brain, don't let it damage his brain."

The head of the security personnel said, "Thank you, Ms. Xia, our Flying Vehicle does have a Medical Cabin, and also medical personnel."

Saying that, they formed teams of three and hurried away.

Xia Chujian: "..."

Suddenly remembered that she hadn't signed a new loan contract with Quan Yuxun.

Also, she wanted better terms, in addition to a twenty-year interest-free loan, she also wanted a reduction of half the principal! She had saved Quan Yuxun's life!

Wasn't Quan Yuxun's life worth five million? When Quan Caiwei went to Da Fu Prefecture for fun, the Quan Family spent at least six million to provide her with security.

Quan Yuxun was more important than Quan Caiwei, right?

Xia Chujian deeply felt that she had been taken advantage of by Quan Yuxun, and a big advantage at that.

She left Mulan City South District with a heavy heart.

...

Xia Chujian took the Inner City Maglev Train back to her small apartment in North District, it was only noon.

Xia Yuanfang opened the door for her, and seeing her come back so early, said with satisfaction, "This Chief Quan is quite a man of his word."

Then she looked at the red-bottomed, white-flowered cotton-padded jacket she was wearing with disgust, and said, "Is this the uniform of the Quan Family Security Personnel?"

Xia Chujian: "... Pfft hahaha!"

She had to tell Quan Yuxun this sentence to see if he still had the face to deduct her commission! Then Xia Chujian remembered that Quan Yuxun also said that he would go to South District again at night to scout the area.

Was he really going to investigate the Humanoids riot incident?

There were no Humanoids there anymore...

Of course, after this morning, even if there were some remaining Humanoids, they were taken away by that "Dalahe" in one wave.

Xia Chujian felt bad all over and walked in gloomily.

"Sister, shoes shoes." Little Wu Fu and Small Si Xi ran over from the living room and stood side by side in front of her.

Little Wu Fu pushed the shoes she wanted to change into to her, and Small Si Xi's little tail wagged like a small windmill.

As soon as Xia Chujian saw these two cute little things, she immediately felt that her eyes and mind, which had been ravaged just now, were redeemed.

That Dalahe was just there to make people feel bad, it was pure Mental Strength pollution without impurities.

Xia Chujian picked up the clean Little Wu Fu and kissed his face, "Wu Fu, did you eat bao bao?"

Wu Fu nodded vigorously, his pure eyes made people forget the mundane.

He said in a milky voice, "Eat one bao bao in the morning, and eat one bao bao at noon."

Then he pointed in the direction of Xia Chujian's bedroom, telling her to go in.

Small Si Xi kept looking up, hoping that Xia Chujian would also hug it, but Xia Chujian was only talking to Wu Fu, and actually forgot about it.

"Wu Er Fu! Wu Er Fu!" Small Si Xi called out indignantly.

Xia Chujian woke up and quickly bent down to hug Small Si Xi in her arms.

Wu Fu was overjoyed and directly hugged Small Si Xi's furry dog head in Xia Chujian's arms.

Small Si Xi was relieved, and stopped calling, squinting its black bean-like eyes, enjoying this double embrace.

Xia Chujian carried the two little ones into the bedroom before putting the Humanoid and the dog down.

She went behind the screen to change clothes, took off the red-bottomed, white-flowered cotton-padded jacket first, and then put away the Shao Siming Black Silver Mecha.

If it weren't for this mecha, she would definitely have been injured by the self-destruction of that giant eyeball today.

But thinking that she was already an employee of the Special Security Bureau, even if she was accidentally injured, she should be able to use the Special Security Bureau's medical insurance, right?

Xia Chujian was thinking wildly, folded the cotton-padded jacket and cotton-padded trousers, put them in a black cloth bag, and waited to return them to Quan Yuxun.

The Face Mask that she had scratched into a mess, she had already said in front of those security personnel that she would throw it in the trash can, but it was impossible for her to really throw it in the trash can, and planned to find an opportunity to burn it to ashes, which was the safest.
