48: Chapter 23 Family Apartnt 48: Chapter 23 Family Apartnt The Doll stood at the door holding a sign, the words brimming with anticipation and tension.
Li Yelai pondered for a few seconds before he realized.
He had followed the Doll’s advice to stay away from the Battlefield earlier, saying that he’d treat her to a al next ti.
Well…
that was just a polite remark.
Just like the commonly used phrase “Have you eaten?” it was nothing more than a polite phrase.
But the girl took it seriously and had purposely changed into a new doll outfit, waiting here prettily.
Even for soone as frugal as Li Yelai, it was hard to utter words of rejection.
But Li Yelai needed to rush ho imdiately; everything that had happened today had frightened him.
After all, he had attracted the attention of so organizations, whether it was the Ember Church or the organization behind Black Umbrella.
They might already be aware of him.
Be it the special ability of Wanxiang Wumian or the conspicuous feat of destroying the Ghost Immortal Altar.
Either would alert those organizations.
When the young man from Black Umbrella threatened Li Yelai using his family, he had already felt fear.
He understood that no matter how strong he beca, he couldn’t always be by his loved ones’ side.
He had to ensure Li Yunyan’s safety first.
So, Li Yelai formulated his words carefully and said to the Doll, “I have an urgent matter today; is it okay if we do it in a few days?”
The Doll visibly drooped, her arm holding the signboard sagging, the signboard looked as if it had lost its strength.
She was genuinely sad, thinking that this only companion unaffected by the curse was distancing himself from her.
If Li Yelai’s gaze could penetrate the headgear, he would see a once proudly beautiful face now fall into moist-eyed lancholy.
She wasn’t as strong as she appeared, the shock of hope being abruptly extinguished made her legs weak.
Li Yelai sensed her thoughts and quickly added, “You know I encountered an enemy today who threatened using my family.
Although he is now dealt with, I’m still worried.
I plan to go ho imdiately to pack and prepare to move.”
The Doll instantly perked up and raised the signboard again.
[“Threatening family, that’s despicable (╬￣皿￣)”]
[“So have you thought about a new place yet (O_o)?”]
“Eh, not yet.” Li Yelai shook his head and said, “Moreover, my sister doesn’t know I am a Spiritual Ability User, nor does she know about the existence of Spiritual Ability Users.
I’m thinking about how to be honest with her.”
[“So colleagues feel the sa way, not wanting to involve or worry their families, so they keep their identities secret.
But since such things have already happened, you have no choice but to be honest now (`へ´*)ノ”]
[“As for the new ho, you shouldn’t choose just anywhere.
Safety first.
You’re a mber of the ‘Champion,’ you could inquire if ‘Champion’s division has policies for family mbers.
But I live in the division, so I don’t know much about it.(´･ω･)ﾉ(._.`)”]
“Okay, thanks.
Once I’ve moved, I’ll treat you to a al!” Li Yelai thought for a while, realizing that Yang Chen’s code na was ‘Champion,’ so he nodded imdiately at the Doll.
Then, he promptly walked towards Yang Chen’s office.
As he passed by the Doll, he heard a sowhat muffled female voice: “You’re welco…”
Soon, Li Yelai arrived at Yang Chen’s office.
“I was just about to look for you.” Yang Chen smiled and said, “Generally speaking, we don’t ddle in the private lives of Processors.
But so Processors who stand out can attract the enmity of certain bastards.
So, we have policies to protect family mbers.
For instance, an apartnt located four kiloters away from this division, in the Ring City District, is a security spot where we accommodate family mbers and so protective personnel of Processors.
There will be a few Processor groups and a team of Iron Guards secretly safeguarding.”
“That…
How expensive is this?” Li Yelai inquired, “I don’t have much Giant City Coin in my account.”
Currently, Li Yelai did have so savings, but it wasn’t enough to buy a house.
“You can purchase with rit Points, assuming you don’t intend to live in the most luxurious villa.
A regular three-room apartnt only costs twenty rit Points.
If you’re short on points, I can front them for you.
You can pay back when you get a chance,” Yang Chen offered.
Li Yelai calculated briefly.
According to the prices given by the Detective, so Processors were buying rit Points, with prices fluctuating between fifteen to twenty thousand per point.
This ant that this house purchase would cost Li Yelai roughly three hundred to four hundred thousand.
This was already a significant sum; based on Li Yelai’s previous salary, without spending on anything else, it would take at least twenty-five years to afford at the lowest price.
However, compared to other houses in the Ring City District….
the prices Li Yelai had previously heard were about eight hundred thousand.
This price was already a discount.
Moreover, the community had Processor groups and a team of Iron Guards guarding day and night; the price could only be higher than regular houses.
Over a million Giant City Coins?
It must be an internal benefit the Processing Departnt provides for Processors.
Twenty rit Points, even if no incidents occurred, just accumulating from regular missions would add up to a good amount throughout the year, and he could even let the team leader advance the paynt.
After pondering, Li Yelai nodded, “I have enough points, so I’ll buy it.”
Although usually frugal, when it ca to his family’s safety, Li Yelai wouldn’t hesitate.
“Good, I’ll give you the address; soone will receive you there, and you can basically move in with your bags,” Yang Chen said.
Then, glancing at the snowman Doll peeking in at the door, Yang Chen smiled at the Doll and said to Li Yelai, “Go back, have a good talk with your sister.
And her situation, she needs this protection…”
