Chapter 259: Chapter 193 [Request for Monthly Votes!]_2 Chapter 259: Chapter 193 [Request for Monthly Votes!]_2 “But rest assured, as long as you’re in Changsha, they can’t reach you here. The person leading the team this ti from the Mysterious Affairs Bureau is my uncle’s man,” Tian said.
“Tian, thanks,” Mu Rufeng expressed his gratitude.
“You’re one of ours at the Changsha Headquarters. If I don’t have your back, whose back would I have? Right?” Tian said with a laugh.
“Heh, right, Tian. I still have to tell you sothing, my Item Slot has been sealed and is currently unable to be opened,” Mu Rufeng said.
“Your Item Slot has been sealed? Unable to open?” Tian imdiately exclaid in surprise.
“Yeah, after I got the teorite Iron, those Contractors probably followed the Vice Building Owner into the Treasure Tower’s storeroom to hide, so they also wouldn’t be aware of what happened afterward.”
Mu Rufeng proceeded to recount the subsequent events.
In particular, he explained that the Tower Master of Treasure Tower had descended, captured the Fallen Angel, and simultaneously, due to the Rule Items’ connection, he himself beca linked to the Fallen Angel.
And his Item Slot had been sealed by the Rule Items; to unlock it, the Fallen Angel would have to be the one to do it.
Tian, hearing about the subsequent events, was completely shocked.
“I never thought the Tower Master himself would intervene, and even managed to capture the Level 9 Ghost Emperor from the Warts Tycoon Association.”
“Xiao Mu, having your Item Slot sealed might actually be a good thing. It’ll save you a lot of trouble,” Tian said, chuckling.
Mu Rufeng could tell that Tian seed to have breathed a sigh of relief.
“Heh, just afraid so people won’t believe it,” Mu Rufeng said.
Tian naturally knew who Mu Rufeng ant by ‘so people’—it was the second-in-command’s people from Headquarters.
“Haha, you don’t have to worry about that. Don’t underestimate those guys; they’ll definitely have a way to confirm if your Item Slot is really sealed,” Tian assured with a laugh.
“Alright, then I’ll head back to Changsha tonight,” Mu Rufeng said.
“Mhm, my uncle has also sent sothing over this ti. I think you’ll definitely need it,” Tian ntioned.
“What is it?” Mu Rufeng asked.
“You’ll know when you get here. Guaranteed to make you grin from ear to ear,” Tian said with a smile.
“Then I look forward to grinning from ear to ear.”
Following that, Mu Rufeng hung up the call.
“Ah, what a hassle,” Mu Rufeng sighed, wondering if he should just beco a freelancer.
But that was just a fleeting thought. Having the identity associated with the departnt certainly saved him a lot of trouble.
And of course, his parents and relatives would have many hidden benefits in all aspects.
“The second-in-command at Headquarters, heh,” Mu Rufeng said, shaking his head with a laugh.
If it really ca to that, Mu Rufeng wouldn’t hesitate to leave the departnt.
Then, Mu Rufeng took out the “Gourt’s Tablecloth,” and after satisfying his hunger and thirst, he found Zhou Liulong who was still at work.
After greeting Zhou Liulong, he drove his van towards his ho.
…
After parking the car downstairs of his apartnt, Mu Rufeng returned ho.
It was already three-thirty in the afternoon.
The sound of Mu Rufeng opening the door woke up Mu Shan and Liu izhu, who were napping.
“Xiao Feng, you’re back? What do you feel like eating tonight?” Liu izhu ca out of her room, still groggy from sleep.
“Mom, I’m not eating at ho tonight. I’m heading back to Changsha in a bit,” Mu Rufeng said.
“What? You’re heading to Changsha now?” Liu izhu’s face instantly showed surprise.
“So soon?” By this ti, Mu Shan had also co out of his room.
“Yeah, so stuff ca up; I have to leave imdiately,” Mu Rufeng said.
“Is it that urgent? Rest here tonight, and leave early in the morning,” Liu izhu suggested.
“No, I just ca to see you guys. I’m leaving now. Take good care of yourselves at ho. Don’t be frugal with the money you should spend. Play mahjong every day, take a walk by the river. Dad, don’t bother with the tiring chores,” Mu Rufeng instructed.
“Mhm, you be careful too. If you need to go, then go,” Mu Shan nodded.
“Drive safely,” Liu izhu finally said, her myriad of worries condensed into a single sentence.
“If anything cos up, call or call a friend of mine. She has influence in Yong City. I sent you her number,” said Mu Rufeng, holding up his phone.
“Okay,” both parents nodded.
After saying goodbye to his parents, Mu Rufeng drove towards Changsha.
…
An hour and a half later.
Mu Rufeng drove into a rest stop called Yumu Mountain.
Having driven for an hour and a half, he was parched and urgently needed a break.
Plus, this was a good opportunity to check out what was going on with his discount coupon.
After using the bathroom, Mu Rufeng went to the convenience store, picked up two bottles of Dong Peng and two bottles of mineral water, and went to the checkout.
“Beep beep~~!”
The scanner emitted several sounds.
“Twenty yuan in total, I’ll scan your code,” the cashier said.
Mu Rufeng glanced at the cash register screen. Dong Peng Special Drink was priced at seven yuan a bottle, and mineral water at three yuan a bottle.
That ant the Dong Peng had been marked up two yuan. As for the mineral water, an obscure brand he had never seen before, would struggle to sell for one yuan anywhere else.
Mu Rufeng took out his paynt code and showed it to the cashier.
“Beep! The custor has paid twenty yuan via QR code.”
The cashier promptly bagged the drinks and mineral water in a plastic bag and handed it to Mu Rufeng.
