The doctor had left, and Silver Art was the only one remaining with Pei Jinye in the room.
“Arrogance ”
“Hmm?” Pei Jinye looked up.
Standing in the corner’s shadow, Silver Art hesitated before saying, “There’s nothing urgent lately, so I might not visit you for now I’ll co back after the doctor completes your check-up in a few days.”
Pei Jinye glanced at his hesitance, feeling intrigued, “Are you that afraid of the curse?”
Silver Art weakly replied, “Not afraid It’s just that you’re lucky. My last teammate turned into a monster because of a curse and ended up being personally killed by Black Shark.”
Pei Jinye:
“What should I do next? I can’t stay like this forever, right?”
Pei Jinye decisively passed the problem back to him.
Silver Art paused for a mont, his mouth twitching several tis before he squeezed out a response, “I don’t know either, let’s give Mr. Black Shark so ti, he has a smart head ”
Pei Jinye suddenly felt that this mber of the Old Gods Association wasn’t quite bright.
Pei Jinye said with a cold face, “Be careful when you contact in the future. I can’t use my public identity anymore.”
Silver Art was stunned, “Then how should I contact you?”
“Stupid, mobile ssaging.”
“Oh oh ” Silver Art nodded as though he had just realized, and before he left, he said in a deep voice, “Take care!”
Underneath his mask, Pei Jinye tugged the corner of his mouth but also heaved a sigh of relief.
That hurdle was now behind him, luckily everyone was unaware of each other’s true identities.
After the man had left.
Pei Jinye turned around and cleared out the contents of the safe.
I’m not afraid of being exposed What’s wrong with moving my own little gold stash?
Ten minutes later.
On the street.
“What did you just do?”
Pei Jinye had just put on his headset again and walked out of Lan Feng’s secret hideout when Waterlon Head’s voice imdiately ca through the earpiece.
“Took a bit of money, I’ll share so with you.”
Waterlon Head was shocked, “Big brother, you’re so bold Aren’t you afraid of running into soone from the Lan family ”
Pei Jinye had no intention to explain, “Do you want the money or not?”
Whether it was for this operation or the awakening rewards, Ms. Waterlon had put in quite so effort, and Pei Jinye was not stingy.
Besides, now he was involved with the Old Gods Association presumably, he could exploit this in the future.
“I do!”
Waterlon Head gave him the location.
Twenty minutes later, Pei Jinye appeared in a repair shop.
Little Waterlon looked at Pei Jinye with a shy expression, as if she were eting an online friend in real life.
“You’re so small.”
Pei Jinye looked down expressionlessly at this petite figure who barely reached his chest and said as he opened his backpack, “Take as much as you want.”
Little Waterlon was startled by the amount of money and marveled, “Did you clean out the vault? I was just joking, but you’re really giving it to ? So, can I really take it?”
Pei Jinye didn’t seem to mind at all.
Little Waterlon eyed him seriously and then chuckled lightly, “You’re quite interesting.”
She took a bill, “Consider this treating your sister to a al.”
Sister?
Pei Jinye looked at this short girl He didn’t bother to argue and picked up the bag to leave.
“Where are you going?”
“Going ho.”
“Aren’t you afraid the Lan family will cause you trouble?”
Pei Jinye had already tossed the Lan family’s problem over to the Old Gods Association, and from their recent interaction, they didn’t seem to plan on abandoning him; he expected they would help think of a solution.
However
Pei Jinye asked in a low voice, “What do you plan to do with Lan Feng’s body?”
Little Waterlon shook her head, “The boss didn’t say, probably return it to the Lan family, out of respect for the dead.”
Pei Jinye fell silent for a mont, “When Lan Feng was following , he was in disguise. Do you think anyone could identify him through surveillance footage?”
Little Waterlon was taken aback, “He’s very cunning, the surveillance can’t make out his face ”
Pei Jinye continued, “So who can prove that Lan Feng is dead?”
“That ” Little Waterlon paused, realizing the logic, and after mulling it over, she looked at Pei Jinye incredulously, “Are you suggesting we make Lan Feng disappear? Cover up the truth? But what about Lan Hua ”
“A criminal colluding with the Old Gods Association, I don’t believe she would dare to search openly,” Pei Jinye said indifferently.
Little Waterlon Head was silent for a long ti.
” Is your actual age really only 17? You’re not so old monster that’s falsified their age, are you?”
Inside the secret compartnt of the Red Rose Bar.
Black Shark looked at the doctor, “How is it? Can you confirm it’s Arrogance himself?”
The doctor hesitated for a mont but still nodded, “The psychic imprint confirms it’s him, should we report to headquarters now ”
“Do you think there’s a risk of falsification with the psychic imprint?” Black Shark asked in return.
The doctor shook his head, “That’s unlikely, but ”
“But what? Is there sothing wrong?” Black Shark’s expression beca much more serious.
The doctor shook his head and said, “No, no, no, it’s just that based on his description, I can’t think what the cursed object could be.”
Upon hearing this, Black Shark said indifferently, “Changes in the physical body are not entirely unprecedented. I only trust the data. Since it’s confird that he is Arrogance, that’s all that matters. If there is nothing else, then this eting is concluded.”
The doctor quickly said, “Mr. Black Shark, I have a request If we could use him as a test subject, perhaps I could discover sothing.”
Black Shark decisively rejected the proposal, “Arrogance is not to be touched! That’s an order!”
The doctor had no choice but to give up, his face full of regret, ” ..Yes!”
After he left, Black Shark rubbed his temples, deep in thought.
After a mont, he relaxed his brows.
“There’s a problem with Arrogance’s body The plan of the Jiang family might need to be changed.”
“Luckily, we got the Fang Family’s specin in hand. Otherwise, if the punishnt ca down from above ”
The first rays of morning sunlight bathed the earth, reviving all things.
It seed as if no one knew what had happened last night.
As ti passed, the bustle of morning chatter began to rise from the breakfast stalls on the streets.
Pei Jinye, as if nothing had happened, went for an early morning run and then received a call from the Education Departnt to schedule a ti to handle the property transfer procedures.
Pei Jinye called Father Pei right away.
The elderly seed to be busy, his tone was very rushed and he hung up after a few words.
Pei Jinye decided to proceed with the handling first.
The Waterlon Head girl ca out of another room, smiling, “Congratulations.”
Pei Jinye was surprised, “You know already?”
The Waterlon Head girl pointed at her head, and Pei Jinye realized, what news could possibly escape this human-shaped computer.
“Let’s go, I’ll drive you there.”
The Waterlon Head girl searched through a drawer, finally found the car keys, and gestured with her hand.
“You can drive?”
“Joke, I’m an old driver by now, okay. Wait a minute, what tone are you using, you little brat? Daring to doubt Miss !!!”
The Waterlon Head girl was furious.
Pei Jinye picked up his bag, smiling, “I thought you were very young, thumbs up for your natural beauty.”
At this, the Waterlon Head girl’s expression cleared slightly, she humd and hawed a bit, a little proud of herself.
Pei Jinye saw the driver’s license on the table…
Na: Zhao Xiaoxi.
Age .
Then he looked at the Waterlon Head across from him.
With a “snap,” Zhao Xiaoxi quickly snatched the license back, as if fearing soone would see her ID photo.
Pei Jinye:
Returning to the Education Departnt, it was still the sa receptionist as before. Zhao Xiaoxi didn’t waste words, just threw out the ID, and the receptionist’s face changed, hurrying to stand up.
It seed Zhao Xiaoxi had quite a background.
Pei Jinye looked on, astonished.
Zhao Xiaoxi gave him a confident, boisterous look.
In less than ten minutes, the transfer procedures were all completed; the house chosen was in the city center it was more than twice as expensive as the house Pei Jinye’s family used to live in.
Pei Jinye looked at the small booklet in his hand, filled with an indescribable nostalgia and sentint.
Leaving the hall, he still felt as if he was dreaming.
“Sister Xi, does your team still need a mascot?”
