Volume 2: The Church of Light Chapter 164 Mastery
A few days later.
A group of core members of the Bai Zhou Gang in blue suits, led by Chen Qingyun's trusted general, went to the inner city to pick up the goods.
They had passes to the inner city, which also gave many benefits to the inner city guards.
A large number of transport vehicles entered the inner city, and all vehicles were searched, and smuggling was not allowed.
Although this is the rule, there are still some homeless people without household registration appearing on the outskirts of the inner city every year. It’s just that these homeless people dare not appear on the streets during the day and hide everywhere. Once they are seen by the Inner City Patrol Office, they will be arrested directly or beaten to death in the street.
Not long after, the transport vehicles returned from the inner city again.
A figure also returned to the Light Chasing Club headquarters.
"Thanks for your hard work."
Seeing Zhou Yuanyuan return, Xu Shen expressed his concern.
Zhou Yuanyuan looked solemn as she recounted what she had learned during the trip.
The transport truck stayed in the inner city for a day, just loading and unloading goods. She searched the factory where the transport was carried out and found four second-level ruin- slayers in charge.
Before leaving, she captured Chu Tai in the factory and interrogated him about his situation and leader, and learned that there was an organization called "Coffee Party" behind them.
Without in-depth contact with the organization, Zhou Yuanyuan had no way of knowing whether there was a more powerful king in the organization.
Coffee Party... Xu Shen felt that this name was a bit strange and ordinary. He was quite satisfied with Zhou Yuanyuan's ability to do things. It was extremely difficult to find out these things. If he conducted an in-depth investigation, Zhou Yuanyuan would most likely be in danger of being exposed.
"We are too isolated from the news about the inner city. It would be great if we knew what level of organization this Coffee Gang is." Zhou Yuanyuan also expressed regret. If they could find out the stronghold of the Daylight Gang and have more detailed information, they would also know how to negotiate with the Daylight Gang.
"That's enough." Xu Shen said.
There are four second states, plus the Daytime Gang also has three second states, which adds up to seven.
This is the power of the known.
He thought of Mo Xiaoxiao and Lingmi World. Perhaps he could know the origin of this coffee party from these two places.
Anyway, the information No. 10 he revealed in the spiritual world was that he was the king of the bottom city. He was not so well-informed about the news in the inner city, so it should not arouse much suspicion.
Thinking of this, Xu Shen asked Zhou Yuanyuan to go down and rest first, and then he called Mo Xiaoxiao.
"You're back?"
Mo Xiaoxiao's voice was filled with surprise.
Xu Shen paused for a moment before saying, "Not yet. I'm still out on business and won't be back until some time later."
"What's taking so long? Is the captain in the bureau so busy?" Mo Xiaoxiao immediately showed her dissatisfaction, and Xu Shen even imagined her pouting face in his mind.
With a helpless smile, Xu Shen said, "Let me ask you something. Do you know the Coffee Party?"
"Coffee party?"
Mo Xiaoxiao was puzzled and asked, "I've never heard of it. Are they a group of people who love to drink coffee?"
"It's an organization in the inner city." Xu Shen said.
Mo Xiaoxiao suddenly realized and said unhappily, "So you thought of me because you have something to ask... Why, is it important? I can write a letter back to ask my family and ask them to help investigate."
"Then forget it for now."
Xu Shen did not make things difficult for Mo Xiaoxiao. It was equivalent to her being driven out by the Mo family. The fact that she ended up in the bottom city was enough to show that Mo Xiaoxiao's status in the Mo family was extremely low. Although she said it easily, if she was really asked to help, she would probably have to spend a lot of effort.
He was already standing on the edge of a cliff in danger, yet he was still thinking about helping others.
Xu Shen secretly sighed in his heart, "Fool."
"What do you mean by forget it for now?" Mo Xiaoxiao muttered.
Xu Shen smiled, chatted for a few more words, asked about the situation in the bureau, and only hung up the phone with her when he found out that it was no different from usual.
Afterwards, Xu Shen entered the mysterious spiritual world.
What surprised Xu Shen was that the detective woman who was always online was not online this time.
Xu Shen looked at the leader wolf who was still online and asked in surprise, "Where is the detective?"
"I don't know. She hasn't been online for the past few days." The leader wolf shook his head.
Xu Shen was a little surprised and asked, "Is nothing going to happen to her?"
"I also wonder if her true identity has been discovered..." the wolf leader muttered. After all, it's not surprising that a detective woman would be beaten to death for her suicidal behavior.
"How about calling him?" Xu Shen asked tentatively.
"I don't care." The wolf leader said nothing.
Xu Shen immediately stared at the detective's No. 3 orange-yellow light ball and concentrated his mental strength to call out.
Not long after, the orange light ball No. 3 lit up.
The detective's voice laughed and said, "Why, No. 10 actually came to me on his own initiative?"
"I thought something happened to you." Xu Shen said. Hearing her relaxed voice, it seemed that nothing was wrong.
"Something happened." The detective's wife's mood suddenly became depressed when she heard this, and she said sadly: "My cat died, and I'm holding a funeral for it recently."
“…”
Do cats need funerals... Xu Shen was speechless and said, "It's good that nothing happened. I thought you were killed and replaced by a new one."
"I was also expecting someone to look for me, but unfortunately, no one noticed." The detective said helplessly.
"Do you also like to keep pets?" The wolf leader took over with a smile.
The detective said: "When a person is lonely, of course he needs to find a little companion."
"I like to raise animals too, but I prefer wolves. Dogs can guard the house for me." The leader wolf said with a smile.
"You are using me, I am pampering you, we are different." The detective said unhappily.
Xu Shen heard them talking about their daily lives, so he had to interrupt and ask, "Have you heard of the Coffee Party?"
"Coffee party?"
Hearing Xu Shen's blunt interruption, the two did not care much. It could be seen that Xu Shen came online for something. The leader said: "I haven't heard of it. Are they the guys who like to drink coffee?"
"Are you talking about the coffee party in the inner city?" the detective asked in confusion.
Xu Shen's eyes lit up slightly, and he said, "Yes, are you familiar with them?"
"I wouldn't say they are familiar with them. After all, they are just a bunch of petty thieves." said the detective.
Little jerk... Xu Shen was stunned, his eyes brightened a little, and said: "Is there no king in their organization?"
"Rumor has it that there are some, but my guess is that there are none. They are just pretending to be kings to gain a foothold in the inner city." The detective chuckled and said, "This is too common. Some organizations say there are kings, but there aren't any. Some organizations say there aren't any, but in fact they are hiding fierce tigers. If you provoke them, you will die."
"Yes, these days those who don't have something like to say it exists, and those who have something like to say it doesn't exist." The wolf leader said with a smile.
Xu Shen showed an interested tone and asked, "Can you tell me more about it?"
"Why, did they provoke you?" the detective asked.
"No, I'm mainly interested in what they produce." Xu Shen said.
"Production? I heard it's just a butcher shop." The detective said with disdain: "It's obviously a vulgar and low-class thing, but they named it the Coffee Party. If you don't know, you would think it's some kind of capitalist organization."
"Isn't selling meat considered capital?" asked the wolf leader.
"Then what does it mean to be an arms dealer like you?" the detective asked back.
"Terrorists?" the wolf leader asked tentatively.
The detective was amused, and the wolf leader also laughed.
Xu Shen didn't ask any more questions, as he already had a rough idea in his mind. He then asked about some matters concerning the Jiang family.
The detective was about to tell the information that was interrupted by Xu Shen last time.
It turned out that the Jiang family had recently regained some assets, but some minor frictions occurred during the process, and a Ghost Moon warrior was killed.
According to the detective's analysis, this should be a test of the Jiang family by other forces.
After listening to this, Xu Shen sighed inwardly. He could only pay attention to it. With his current strength, he had no capital to intervene.
After leaving the mysterious world, Xu Shen returned to his office.
The blade of the sword I got from the warehouse last time had a crack during the fight with the Wood King, and it is still being repaired.
Xu Shen could only ask Da Lili to go to the warehouse to pick out another weapon.
"What are you going to do now?"
When King Mu heard the news, he rushed over immediately, fearing that Xu Shen would cause trouble again.
He was very helpless about Xu Shen. It was both a headache and a difficult problem that he couldn't handle for the time being.
"It's just a weapon. You don't need to pay too much attention to me." Xu Shen said.
"Don't mess around." Mu Wang said, "Although we have done many things that don't follow the rules, we just don't follow some rigid rules. We also have our own rules. There are some things that must not be touched, and we can't break the rules."
"What does it mean to break through the sky?" Xu Shen asked.
"In this city, the queen ant is everything." Wood King said, "No matter which power is behind us, we have to act according to the queen ant's mood. In short, we can do anything, but we can't harm the queen ant's interests. Do you understand?"
"I understand." Xu Shen nodded.
"What do you want a sword for?"
"The sword is broken, so we need a better weapon." Xu Shen said.
King Mu glanced at Xu Shen and said, "If you really get into trouble, I won't protect you."
"Don't worry." Xu Shen smiled, "I won't drag the army into this."
Mu Wang snorted coldly, turned and left.
Xu Shen looked at his departing back and narrowed his eyes.
Xu Shen was still a little unsure about Mu Wang. The last time they fought, the two were basically evenly matched, but Xu Shen could see that Mu Wang was unable to display his full abilities.
Just relying on basic combat power and Xu soldiers, he was evenly matched with them.
Although he still had some trump cards at that time, it was not difficult to see that this Wood King had most likely reached the limit of the second state and had mastered the extreme state.
It's only one step away from becoming a king.
However, this step is the difference between kings and mortals.
Soon, Xu Shen got the weapon, which was also a sword blade taken from a B-level Xu organization. It had better toughness, but was slightly less sharp than the previous one.
Anyway, it’s enough for now.
Xu Shen took out his communicator and contacted someone.
"Huh? Is there something you want to talk to me about?" Yue Ling on the other end of the communication was slightly surprised, then asked calmly.
Xu Shen smiled slightly and said, "I heard that the Wumian District is very chaotic and the Ruins Beasts are endless. I was wondering if you need any help?"
"oh?"
Yue Ling was a little surprised. Could it be that Xu Shen wanted to express his gratitude for the favor he had done for her last time? But she hadn't even repaid the favor that time because Xu Shen had helped her twice before.
"Are you here to help in person? How come you have so much free time?" Yue Ling asked curiously.
Xu Shen smiled and said, "We are all from the Xu Secret Bureau. The purpose of our Xu Secret Bureau is to eliminate all the evildoers in the Xu. It is only natural for us to help each other."
"Come on, talk seriously." Yue Ling said unhappily.
Xu Shen asked, "Do you know the Daytime Gang?"
"I know, what's the matter?" Yue Ling said, "This is the cancer of our Wumian District, the local snake."
In the Sleepless Zone, more people know about the Daytime Gang than those who know about the Ruins Secret Bureau.
"Since it is a malignant tumor, why not treat it?" Xu Shen asked.
Yue Ling smiled bitterly and said, "You make it sound easy. Our director can't do anything about the Bai Zhou Gang. We have to invite their boss to have tea every year. Whether the Wushuang District is peaceful or not is not up to us to decide. It's up to them to decide."
This is really a one-handed cover to the sky... Xu Shen secretly sighed and said: "I heard that there are several second-state people in the Bai Zhou Gang, why not let them help Zhan Xu?"
"That depends on their willingness." Yue Ling said helplessly: "Even if we pay them, they won't work. These guys only make easy money, unlike us, who have to do all the dirty and tiring work."
"I have to say something to you about this. The other person is unwilling because he is shy. If you secretly send the Xu to him, wouldn't he accept it?" Xu Shen said.
