29: Chapter 29: The Hunter Association’s Commission 29: Chapter 29: The Hunter Association’s Commission After finishing everything, Wen Wen rubbed his neck, his hand sore from writing upright.
“I used to write reports for those policen, now I have to write reports for the Hunter Association, and even on my own turf, I still have to write reports…”
He could certainly write, but having an extra task made Wen Wen very annoyed.
If only he had a subordinate to help manage this huge sanctuary, that would be great.
“Good, everything that needed to be perfected is now in order, and it’s about ti to see what benefits these Wings of Steel can bring .”
Wen Wen eagerly summoned the ‘Calamity’ Gloves, wanting to select the Calamity-0001 containnt chamber, but after searching for a while, he couldn’t find the option.
A bad feeling welled up in his heart.
“Could it be…
damn it!
After all this hassle, I can’t use the Wings of Steel?”
%…&…**（）
After a string of unsightly obscenities, Wen Wen walked out of the containnt warehouse with a grave expression.
Being unable to use the power of the Wings of Steel made his mood extrely foul; after all that effort, he had hoped to increase his abilities, but it was all for nothing.
However, as long as he kept actively capturing monsters and gaining more permissions, he would definitely be able to use these containnt items.
Since he couldn’t use the power of the Wings of Steel for now, Wen Wen decided to check his other gains.
The warehouse manager’s equipnt was also stored in a silver suitcase, similar to the Custodian’s equipnt case, containing a full set of white coats, including shoes but minus underpants.
This white coat was supposedly worn by researchers in the sanctuary, but unlike the white coats worn by doctors in reality, this style was more casual and could even be worn out ordinarily.
In terms of quality, it was similar to that of the custodian’s uniform but with slight differences, focusing on different functionalities.
Besides the clothes, there was also a silver na badge inscribed with Wen Wen’s na and a number.
Unlike the Custodian Badge, which only ca into play during crises, Wen Wen imdiately felt different as soon as he put on this badge.
He beca calr and more focused!
In these two areas, Wen Wen was already stronger than the average person.
With the badge, this feeling was even more pronounced.
After experiencing that sensation for a while, Wen Wen took off the badge and slipped it into his pocket.
He had decided to only wear the badge when needed; excessive calm and focus weren’t always good, as Wen Wen’s usual state was already sufficient.
As for that white coat…
Maybe he could use it as pajamas.
…
Late at night, under the bright light of the desk lamp, Wen Wen held an engraving tool and carefully carved on a bamboo plaque.
He was carving the massive rune from the cell of Calamity-0001.
He tried to imbue the bamboo with the rune’s effects, but the results weren’t very noticeable.
The Calamity Gloves were powerful, and with enough ti, Wen Wen was confident he could surpass most superpower users.
However, Wen Wen wanted to develop so abilities of his own outside the Catastrophe Containnt Facility.
He wouldn’t place all his hopes on the mysterious Catastrophe Containnt Facility; what he wanted was to be able to take the initiative even if the sanctuary vanished one day!
‘I need…
what’s the use of this iron bar…’
A phone call ca, and Wen Wen set down the bamboo strip he was holding; he knew business had arrived.
He had only this one phone and rarely did anyone contact him for reasons unrelated to work.
He had no family, no friends, and he had even severed ties with his forr classmates.
Aside from his detective work, the forr Wen Wen was, to everyone else, a person of no consequence.
Even if one day he were to die in so dark corner, at most soone might express regret, but no one would grieve…
“Looking for , Captain Li?” Wen Wen answered the phone with a smile, maintaining a professional deanor with clients.
“Yes, Detective Wen, I have a task I’d like to entrust to you,” Lin Zheyuan said wearily, having not rested properly for many days.
“Just say the matter.
If it’s beyond my capabilities, I won’t agree to it.”
Lin Zheyuan hesitated for a mont: “Normally, wouldn’t one say they would definitely not refuse if it’s within their capabilities… Forget it, you rember those two from the Secret Organization, right?”
“Of course, I rember,” Wen Wen responded sharply, always clear about potential enemies.
“Mr.
L is missing, but the Bewitching Clown Grandi is seriously injured and should still be recuperating in Furong River City.
You are an expert in tracking; could I ask you to locate him?”
“The Bewitching Clown Grandi, that’s the man in the red vest?” Wen Wen asked, surprised, only now learning the na of the man beside Wilson.
“Right, uh, the Bewitching Clown Grandi, a mber of the Mithril Brotherhood, a superpower user supremacist, extrely dangerous to ordinary people.” Lin Zheyuan wouldn’t have shared this information with Wen Wen if he didn’t need his help to capture soone.
Wen Wen stroked his chin, taking interest in the first piece of information he’d learned about the Secret Organization, then asked:
“You said he is seriously injured, how severe are the injuries?” Since he was extrely dangerous, the Catastrophe Containnt Facility would probably also be interested.
“Don’t act rashly, nor overestimate your abilities.
Just find him, that’s all,” Lin Zheyuan advised solemnly.
“Among the five levels of superpower strength, he is at Sequence Four ‘Mastery,’ and has already started attempting ‘Assimilation.’ Even severely injured, he is not soone a newly awakened superpower user like you can handle.”
Lin Zheyuan warned Wen Wen sternly, as new superpower users generally have overconfidence in their abilities, which sotis could be fatal.
“Okay, okay…
But Furong River City is so big, you can’t expect to blindly search, right…”
“He last appeared alongside Wilson, who had just mastered supernatural powers.
Since he is a superpower user supremacist, I think he might consciously contact other superpower users or have other underlings in Furong River City…” Wen Wen said, drawing out his words.
“Just tell what you really want,” Lin Zheyuan asked, frowning.
“I want all the intelligence related to supernatural powers in Furong River City, of course, excluding so information that might be inconvenient to give .”
Wen Wen revealed his needs, seeking the intelligence he most desired.
As a freelance hunter, he had no access to such information.
Now that they needed his help, it was an opportunity to ask for it.
Lin Zheyuan hesitated for a mont, sensing Wen Wen’s motives for the information might not be so straightforward, but after pondering, he nodded and said.
“I’ll provide the information you need, but I expect you to give it your all, as the information is very valuable.”
“Even if the information is valuable, the paynt should still be provided as usual.
The data is necessary to complete the task and cannot be used as paynt,” Wen Wen said sternly.
Lin Zheyuan: “…”
He hadn’t intended to shortchange Wen Wen’s compensation anyway.
