Starting Cultivation in Wasteland

Chapter 270: Chapter 171: Not Going Anymore / Taking It Seriously (Fourth Update Complete)

Ma Long thought for a moment and finally shook his head, ”What can I say? It’s really a pity about Jian Lei.”

”What puzzles me is, Clear Wind Shadowless Blade... how did he become a cook at that restaurant by his door?” Xiao Qin’s expression was a bit peculiar.

As mentioned earlier, the surveillance in Central City is still abundant, even though the damage rate remains high, having it is better than not.

So Xiao Moshan’s identity has been uncovered, and everyone can basically confirm that Jian Lei knowing him is purely coincidental.

But there’s no way to communicate this to the people in the Gorge; those people are completely unreasonable.

The two left behind by the Gorge aren’t just posturing; they immediately mobilized many people to investigate in the settlement below.

Unfortunately, Cindy and Claire were caught again, with people inquiring about every word and action of Panda.

This time, however, Zhou Six’s settlement didn’t cause any trouble. After the inquiry was completed, Cindy and Claire’s treatment remained the same.

Because more than one Ultimate Warrior from Central City stated: Whatever’s going on with Jian Lei, we don’t know, but these two women are not to be touched!

This was the only time Qu Jianlei expressed concern about anyone; not to mention Black Panther, Xiao Qin, Ma Long, and Jamaari would also watch over them!

The people from the Gorge stayed in Central City for more than three months before leaving resentfully.

Just as the Inspection Bureau was about to breathe a sigh of relief, someone reported: Two spies were caught at the gate of Qu Jianlei’s courtyard!

Xiao Qin had the people called over for questioning, but it was really laughable: they were just a bunch of low-level hooligans.

This bunch of hooligans actually has a bit of background; they’re quite skilled at extorting large households, and there’s an Ultimate Warrior backing them.

An Ultimate Warrior doing such petty things? You wouldn’t believe it, but it’s true.

The incident started when Qu Jianlei initially arrived at Central City and had hired a guide, that girl named Qian Rou... who helped entertain him more.

Later, Qu Jianlei’s lavish spending drew the attention of this gang of thugs, who wanted to scam him.

Afterward, when Qian Rou’s business concluded, her car rear-ended someone else’s, which was a setup by this gang.

At first, Qian Rou was wary of them, but then gradually became familiar, sharing a bit of the same notorious character.

She was already living off society, knowing quite a few big shots wasn’t a bad thing.

Recently they’ve been a bit strapped for cash, so they’ve targeted Qu Jianlei’s location.

Actually, they already knew Jian Lei had entered the Inspection Bureau, but since he’s been missing for a long time... is there any hidden wealth?

Unexpectedly, though Qu Jianlei had left, the courtyard has been tightly watched by the Earth Room of the Inspection Bureau.

In fact, the ownership of the courtyard is still under Jian Lei’s name, it hasn’t been confiscated.

The people from the Gorge visited the courtyard and rudely took two A-level crystals but ignored the B-level ones.

The courtyard is now guarded by two Modified Warriors found by Black Panther.

One can imagine, the Inspection Bureau is ready to clear Jian Lei’s name at any moment.

At this critical juncture, when these thugs came along, they really had no sense at all.

After interrogating these people, Black Panther felt there was no gain, scolded them a bit, and then let them go.

Mainly due to the pressure from the Gorge, everyone had already thoroughly understood all of Jian Lei’s experiences after arriving in Central City.

Regarding Qian Rou, the girl who accompanied Jian Lei to many stores, everyone certainly wouldn’t be unfamiliar.

So after some inquiry, Black Panther once again warned them and then released them.

A few hooligans narrowly escaped, found a place to feast and drink to calm their nerves.

The inspectors tailing them secretly saw nothing unusual and finally retreated.

What they didn’t expect was that that night, one of the hooligans came to a rural residence,

Owe one update to the adorable lord Urban Liquor Immortal, the author of the hit book ”Starting with Stolen Account, Counter-Recharge One Million,” the book is excellent. I originally planned to add updates separately...)
