The First Mist Chapter 89: Flaw
"Haven't you heard that cutting off someone's financial resources is like killing his parents? The hatred for parents is irreconcilable..." Xu Shen muttered to himself, quickly drawing his sword, and blood gushed out .
He dodged quickly to avoid getting splashed with blood.
Then he looked at the angry beast.
"The rest is up to you, enjoy it."
He put away his sword, turned around and ran, gathering all the power in his body, and exited the world of the underworld, returning to the alley in reality.
Turning around, he saw the beast tracking him through the building.
"Why bother……"
Xu Shen picked up the ruins-breaking device and quickly escaped into the alley, climbed over the wall to another block, speeding up all the way while covering his body with black blood to isolate the smell.
After a few minutes, Xu Shen shook off the beast.
The opponent was injured during the battle with Xu Feng, and his pursuit speed was not as fast as before.
"If you don't go back to eat, the food will get cold..."
Xu Shen looked back and was relieved to see that the beast was not following him.
He walked along another street to the suburbs and stayed in a small hotel.
Then I cleaned up the smell and washed myself.
Xu Shen saw a tiny gap on the Zhanxu sword and thought of the previous confrontation. He frowned slightly. It seemed that this was a flaw.
It's on his sword, which means the other party's sword might have it too.
But there was nothing he could do. If he didn't want others to know, he had better not do it. He didn't expect that he could set up a perfect plan, so as long as there was no conclusive evidence, it would be fine.
He thought about it and contacted Big Lily through the communication.
"Any missions lately?"
"Um?"
Da Lili didn't expect Xu Shen to contact her so late at night. At this moment, her voice sounded a little sleepy, and she was obviously woken up by Xu Shen in her sleep.
But facing this consul who is a promising talent in the club and is likely to become one of the leaders in the future, she did not show any dissatisfaction. She quickly cheered up and said with a smile: "Consul, do you want to make money?"
You just spent 100,000 to buy the market, you must be heartbroken.
Big Lily chuckled secretly.
Xu Shen looked as if he had been seen through, and sighed, "It would be best if the reward was higher, a C-level market would be no problem."
"If it's C-level, is the Consul sure?" Big Lily asked in surprise.
She knew the intelligence about Xu Shen at the Secret Bureau of the Ruins, and there was a record of him killing a C-level Ruins, but it seemed that it was a sneak attack with the cooperation of his teammates.
Although he was transferred to the first echelon, the director promoted him more to protect Xu Shen and cultivate him rather than based on his strength.
"We can try it." Xu Shen said after thinking about it.
Seeing this, Big Lily said nothing more. She had to report the matter to the association. As long as the higher-ups were willing to let Xu Shen take the risk, it would be fine.
"The Consul is making great progress..." Big Lily smiled, feeling a little emotional in her heart. Their missions were all single-soldier operations, and Xu Shen must have been quite confident to say so.
This boy's growth rate is amazing.
"By the way, if I carry out a C-level mission, what will be recorded as the identity of codename Xuyan?" Xu Shen asked.
"It will be recorded as two D-level missions for you."
Big Lily smiled and said, "Don't worry, there is a huge gap between D-level missions and C-level missions. Even if the Xumi Bureau knew that you had carried out ten D-level missions, they would not think that you have the ability to kill a C-level Xu alone, unless you show your strength in the Xumi Bureau's missions..."
"Two D-class..."
Xu Shen's eyes flickered slightly, and he looked at the sword in his hand and nodded slightly: "Let's do it this way."
Two D-level hits were enough to damage the sword and leave a small nick...
…
…
The next day.
Xu Shen rested until noon before getting up.
He hadn't had a good rest in the past two days as he had been searching for ruins all night and fighting.
After getting up, I injected myself with a tube of detoxifying agent.
He only had five bottles of purifier left.
Xu Shen planned to buy more on the black market when the bottle was almost used up, at 5,000 yuan a bottle. With his current savings of more than 200,000 yuan, it would be enough to last for a long time even if there were no missions to carry out.
After injecting the detoxifying agent, Xu Shen went out to have lunch and then returned to Yanluo Street.
He carefully returned to the building where he lived. Seeing that there was still no sign of anyone sneaking into his room, Xu Shen felt a little more at ease. Perhaps, this matter was over?
However, he planned to live outside for a month first.
Anyway, the price of the small hotel is cheap, only 10 Luka coins a night.
It is expensive for the fog people, but it is negligible compared to his current income.
Then Xu Shen went to the mailbox, took out the newspaper he subscribed to, and checked the information.
Sure enough, I saw a report on the Gran Street area in the news. A hotel had a large number of casualties and it was suspected that a vicious criminal had appeared...
Detectives from various institutions jumped out to discuss the matter, and some charity foundations jumped out to denounce the criminals for their brutality and lack of faith in humanity.
Xu Shen had a lot of thoughts in his mind, which finally turned into a sigh.
He blamed Xu for what others had done.
These people put the blame on others for the things that happened during the period.
Is it true that they are unaware, or is it a tacit noise?
Xu Shen put down the newspaper and went to the small building where he was stationed.
Xu Shen didn't see Zhang Liyao inside, and he had nothing to do, so he just sat there waiting.
It was late at night when Zhang Liyao, wearing expensive clothes and carrying a lot of bags, got out of the taxi.
Seeing Xu Shen in the small building, Zhang Liyao was obviously surprised and subconsciously put the things in her hands behind her back, but she realized that this behavior was a bit strange, so she immediately put them on the table with a smile and greeted Xu Shen:
"When did Lord Xu come? Have you been waiting for a long time?"
"No, I just got here."
Xu Shen smiled and said, "Are you going out shopping?"
"Well, there's not much to do here during work, and it's boring staying here, so I'll leave for a while." Zhang Liyao said quickly.
"Well, they have been removed from the protection list anyway. There's nothing to worry about. There's no point in staying here." Xu Shen said with a smile.
Zhang Liyao secretly looked at Xu Shen's face and asked, "Why is Lord Xu coming here?"
"Just passing by, come and take a look."
Zhang Liyao was half-believing and half-doubting, and immediately poured water for Xu Shen.
Xu Shen acted very casually and took the initiative to talk to her about the clothes and other items she had purchased.
At first, Zhang Liyao was worried that Xu Shen would blame her, but when she saw that Xu Shen didn't react, she gradually relaxed and started talking.
They talked about Zhang Liyao's interests and hobbies, then the various lively areas in Yanluo Street, and finally the things she liked, and then Zhang Liyao's family.
"It's getting late, you should go to bed early."
Xu Shen smiled and said, "Anyway, no one needs protection now, so we can relax."
Zhang Liyao smiled and looked at Xu Shen's back as he left. She thought to herself that it was a pity that he was so handsome, if only he was smarter...
…
Back in the small building, Xu Shen received a communication from Da Lili, who had confirmed the location of the C-level target.
Xu Shen immediately took action late at night.
Soon, I will meet Big Lily.
This time the C-level target is in a small suburban town.
"Did you also launch the Ruins this time?"
"No." Big Lily smiled and said, "It was attracted by the mayor. It appeared in the home of the richest man in this town..."
She smiled and said, "I heard that they bought it from another organization, but the ruins that organization put there attracted even more terrifying things. They couldn't handle it, so they asked us for help."
