Deity Investigation Report

Chapter 100 Black Table Bounty

"Qinggang is a very large city, so large that even the Disaster Management Bureau cannot control such a large situation. Now that the Disaster Management Bureau is in place, and Secretary No. 5 is in charge, all those who have been in contact with the deepest weirdness need to face three choices."

"But before the Disaster Management Agency came into being, there were still many talented people who accidentally got involved, but survived and even learned something from it."

"Of course, both the Disaster Management Bureau and those mysterious organizations hope to win them over, but not all of them are willing to take sides; they prefer to stay in the middle."

"No matter what choice we make, we still need to eat. The Black Table is a large platform that allows them to see things. So, Mr. Han, don't worry. As long as the compensation is sufficient, we should be able to recruit enough people to help."

"..."

Assistant Xu led Chao Su to the private study of the clubhouse. Xu Ji wanted to come along, but was refused.

Enraged, Xu Ji glared at Assistant Xu like a toad, then cast a pleading look at Han Su.

Han Su ignored him, so Xu Ji glared angrily at the two of them.

The two walked to the study, where Assistant Xu turned on the computer and asked with a smile, "The question now is, how many people do you need to recruit to help?"

Han Su hesitated for a moment, then said, "Six."

"That's not a big problem."

Assistant Xu said, "Your operation takes place outside the city, so the risk is already lower. In addition, all we need to do is issue the commission, so we don't need to worry about that much."

Han Su frowned as he listened to his words and said, "But what I'm about to do is very dangerous."

Hearing this, Assistant Xu smiled and said, "Mr. Han, for someone who's just entered the world of mystery, the ghost truck is certainly very dangerous, but those who dare to accept bounties at the Black Table should..."

No, you misunderstand.

Han Su shook his head slightly after hearing this and said, "I'm not wary of the ghost truck. Actually, what I want to find this time is six bodyguards."

Assistant Xu was indeed slightly taken aback: "Bodyguard?"

"Yes."

Han Su let out a soft sigh, glanced at the water glass he habitually placed beside him, and said, "I just want to ensure that this mission can be completed undisturbed."

That monster had been staring at him for too long, and its status was too high for him to even notice its gaze.

According to Song Chushi, once he obtains the investigator's license, he can get rid of it. However, when dealing with the ghost truck, there is no guarantee that no unexpected situations will arise.

In addition, the woman in the red trench coat paid too much attention to him, and even the Ghost Truck mission seemed to have been prepared for him in advance. Han Su couldn't see through all of this, but he was determined to take this opportunity to get his investigator's license.

Since that's the case, I must be fully prepared to face not only the ghost truck, but also the monster, and some guys who might become my enemies.

Upon hearing this, Assistant Xu's expression immediately turned serious, and he lowered his voice to ask, "Then what level of threat are you wary of?"

Han Su frowned and thought for a moment, finding it difficult to describe precisely, then slowly said, "Just half a month ago, Qinggang actually faced an invasion, and it took a lot of investigators to resolve it, did you know that?"

Upon hearing this, Assistant Xu's expression changed slightly, indicating that he was aware of Song Chushi's existence.

He looked at Han Su's face with some hesitation, but only saw Han Su nod slightly. He seemed to have a lump in his throat, and after a long while, he whispered, "That is indeed a very difficult level to deal with..."

This time, it was Han Su's turn to ask him in return: "What level does this threat fall under?"

Assistant Xu paused for a moment, then said, "A demigod in the city!"

His voice suddenly lowered: "Mr. Han, do you know why the occult expert we invited is so afraid of you?"

"Of course she's not afraid of the box that belongs to the executor in your hand. What she's afraid of is actually the Disaster Management Bureau. This department hasn't been established for long, but there are some exceptionally terrifying people in it!"

"They are not only responsible for stopping something in the shadows, but also for suppressing those trapped in the shadows."

“I didn’t expect that you would run into such an opponent so soon after joining the Disaster Management Bureau.”

"..."

At this point, he paused slightly, instinctively wanting to offer some advice to Han Su, but given his position, he knew he shouldn't say such things.

Han Su could only shrug and say, "He provoked me first."

"However, he won't come directly, but he might use some means to spy on me or influence me. What I need is someone to firmly guard a certain area for me, unaffected by the mission. Can you find one?"

"Can't find it."

As he spoke, Assistant Xu logged into his friend's account and quickly asked Han Su about the relevant locations and tasks. Han Su then pulled out the plan that the doctor had made for him and extracted the information from it one by one.

It doesn't specify who to deal with; the mission is still issued in the form of blocking, and even the blocking itself isn't explicitly stated, only six locations are designated.

The content is divided into six parts:
[A commission of ten million. Proceed to the designated location and ensure that no supernatural entities cross this boundary during the mission.]

[Private message me when it's time!]

【…】

Han Su noticed that Assistant Xu's account might indeed be at a very high level; it wasn't the kind that could be directly edited, but rather that he was sending his needs to a professional contact person on the platform.

After asking a few questions, the other party presented several levels of options. Assistant Xu chose the highest level, Elite, without hesitation, but his expression still showed some unease. While pondering, he said to Han Su, "Black Table will help us screen suitable people. If any issues arise during the commission that violate professional ethics, Black Table will handle the aftermath. So, the people they select can be trusted."

"But if you're facing an opponent of that level, even if you spread that out among six people, you wouldn't be able to find anyone who could protect you perfectly in front of him."

Han Su frowned, looking at the figure of ten million. He thought to himself, "Six people, and even with six million, is it really that difficult?"

Then, Assistant Xu hesitated for a moment before saying, "We need to make more preparations."

As he spoke, he moved the mouse, multiplying each number by ten.

The task, which had been divided into six parts, was then multiplied by ten and distributed out again. Han Su, standing next to him, was visibly stunned.

and many more……

One task is divided into six parts, each with a commission of ten million, and now that's multiplied by ten...

...to seize the young master?
After Assistant Xu finalized the decision, he closed the page and said, "Since individual abilities are insufficient, then we can only make up for it with quantity."

Han Su watched from the side, unsure how to answer, and even feeling a little guilty himself.
That monster might affect my mission, but that's just a guess...

Now that the money has been spent, what if the monster doesn't come?
……

……

With Assistant Xu's actions, this series of viral requests immediately caused a huge stir in the mysterious world of Qinggang and the surrounding area.

This is practically a freebie mission.

Even on platforms like Black Table, which offer generous commissions and diverse ways to earn money, it's rare to see such a simple yet lucrative task. Moreover, the account that posted this task is one of the most privileged and mysterious accounts on Black Table.

With the notification sound, the task immediately flew to countless terminals in Qinggang and surrounding cities.

Even after being screened, the task would only be seen by certain people, but it still caused a huge uproar.

……

……

"You go too!"

At the same time, at the Qinggang Disaster Management Bureau base, Secretary Cui Qiao monitored the bounty using her private account and immediately guessed that it might be related to the Ghost Truck mission. Instead of directly asking Han Su, she came directly to find Zhang Chiguo.

As soon as she entered the room, she heard Zhang Chiguo, who was organizing files behind his desk, say to her, "I've already accepted this commission for you. Go there undercover to monitor the movements of those mysterious organizations."

Cui Qiao's mouth gaped slightly as he stared at Zhang Chiguo in astonishment for a while before saying, "Didn't you tell him not to actually go and deal with the ghost truck?"

"This guy went there secretly, and instead of stopping him, you want me to go and help him?"

"..."

Zhang Chiguo remained silent for a while before saying, "Young people have their own way of doing things."

"What I can teach him is to be careful. In terms of experience, I do have more than him, but from the perspective of actually doing things, I am just a failure."

"Ten years have passed, and there has been no progress in that kidnapping case in my hands."

"So I will still remind him at every key moment and pass on my experience to him, but I can't force him to follow my old path, lest he replicate my failure."

"..."

Secretary Cui looked intently at Zhang Chiguo for a long time before suddenly smiling, nodding, and saying, "The fact that you can still think like this shows that you're not actually that old."

……

……

In another room at the Disaster Management Bureau, the woman in the red trench coat also received the message from her assistant and immediately guessed the problem. She stared at the bounty for a long time, her face turning extremely ugly.

After a long pause, she pulled out her phone and said directly, "It seems he's already starting to suspect us, so he's kept it from Weiwei and isn't giving us any time to react."

"Time is too tight, and now we have no chance to make any other arrangements."

"unless……"

"..."

"..."

Unbeknownst to everyone, after Assistant Xu had issued enough requests and reported them to Xu Ji's father, in a stale and somber room, the old man pondered for a moment before personally making a phone call using his personal landline:
"Miss Wei Lan?"

"It may be abrupt, but I'm willing to pay three ancient gold coins to have you protect someone."

"No, it's not my son. He's already received the best protection."

"The person I want you to protect is someone who has been working very hard."
