Weird Safe House: I became stronger after taking in my roommate!

Chapter 26 Murphy in a Dilemma

Murphy sat in the Snow King flagship store, quietly savoring a glass of iced lemonade.

She clutched a file folder tightly in her hand, her face full of hesitation.

"You—you've come."

Suddenly, she caught sight of a handsome young man standing in front of her.

Perhaps because she had encountered too many strange events recently, she was startled.

"You didn't come here using the power of the Ghost Realm, did you?"

After being rescued by Shen Xu last time, Murphy also analyzed his abilities.

The pen he was twirling in his hand under the streetlight must have been a strange object, and the ghost in the Zhongshan suit that suddenly appeared must have been the Ghost King born at Xiangyang School!

The safety officer has a chance to get a reward for completing the safe house mission. Shen Xu's first reward was a B-level strange object, and he was even able to summon the Ghost King. This start was incredibly powerful.

A Rank B Ghost King can inherit all the power of the Ghost Domain, and naturally can use the Ghost Domain at will.

Using the Ghost Domain to travel is similar to the ability to distort space during a Ghost Domain invasion, allowing one to appear anywhere within a certain range, similar to spatial teleportation.

Shen Xu looked at the pure-looking college girl in front of him with the kind of pity one would show someone mentally challenged, and said helplessly, "I really don't know how someone with your IQ became an investigator. Do you hire people based on looks and figure?"

He looked Murphy up and down.

It has to be said that this woman is indeed very beautiful.

In any school, she would be considered a school beauty.

Every customer who came to buy milk tea in the store just now couldn't help but glance at her a few times.

Perhaps because it was the weekend, the female investigator was dressed rather casually today.

She wore a plaid shirt with one button undone at the collar, revealing her fair and delicate skin on her chest.

She has beautiful shoulders, pert breasts, and her shirt is slightly short, revealing a glimpse of her supple, slender, snow-white waist.

She wore simple denim shorts, her legs were long, white and straight, and she wore white sandals, even her exposed toes were incredibly delicate.

"What did you say?!"

Murphy blushed, unsure whether to be angry or happy.

The young man in front of me both denied his professional skills and affirmed his good looks.

"What are you thinking about?"

Shen Xu sat down opposite him and casually called out to the counter, "An ice cream cone, please."

"Do you want it?"

"No, it will make me fat."

Murphy shook her head. She had been working overtime lately and eating too many late-night snacks, and had already gained two pounds.

"oh."

Shen Xu didn't say much, got up to pay the bill, and got a small ice cream cone to lick.

Xue Wang, a beverage shop, targets the affordable market, but apart from its iced lemonade, most of its drinks have a slightly inferior taste.

But the mini ice cream cone was pretty good; the texture was very smooth.

"What information did you find? Tell me."

Shen Xu got straight to the point and asked.

"Before we talk about that, could you promise me something?"

Murphy nervously tugged at his fingers and asked weakly.

"cannot."

"this----"

Shen Xu resolutely refused, frowning as he said, "Stop talking nonsense. I've already said, if you don't help me investigate, or if you don't find anything..."

"I'll take care of those people, even though it's illegal. But I think as a security officer, killing a few thugs with criminal records shouldn't bother law enforcement, right?"

The security guards are among the very few people in the city who wield supernatural powers and are capable of fighting against vengeful spirits.

Shen Xu is not only a security officer, but also a security officer who controls the Ghost Domain.

If you provoke him, he can unleash his Ghost Domain, which could take away at least several thousand lives!

Of course, judging from Shen Xu's current behavior, his mental state is not bad, and he will not do such a heinous thing.

"Don't get agitated."

Murphy quickly took out a file folder, glancing at the noisy customers in the shop. The chaotic environment actually provided a kind of concealment. She handed the file to Shen Xu and explained, "This club called Vienna has three floors. The basement is occupied by K, the first floor is for foot massage, and the second floor is for men's wellness services."

"The owner of this shop is called Sister Hong. She has nothing to do with Black Dragon Company. Brother Biao and his gang claim to be from Black Dragon Company, but they are just trying to confuse you and stir up trouble between you and Black Dragon Company."

Shen Xu was not surprised by this.

Murphy paused for a moment, then said, "Based on the clues I've found so far—all the evidence points to Zhao Bin."

"Zhao Bin?"

Shen Xu frowned slightly: "That security officer from your Investigation Bureau?"

Murphy nodded: "Before becoming a security officer, Zhao Bin was a regular at the Vienna Club. He even worked there for a while and was very familiar with Brother Biao's gang."

"Furthermore, Captain Zhang helped us find the call records from that day. Although the person behind it used a brand new SIM card, the voice recognition was indeed Zhao Bin's."

"Those thugs were taken back, and apart from Brother Biao, the others have all confessed—"

Shen Xu sneered: "So that means the evidence is conclusive?"

Murphy paused for a few seconds, then nodded and said, "Yes, I have handed the information over to the director, who has also reported it to headquarters. We are currently waiting for a decision on how to proceed."

She is currently very worried.

According to the headquarters' style, as long as there is no substantial harm to society, they generally will not easily remove a safety officer, after all, this profession is still too rare.

She had only met Shen Xu two or three times, but she could sense his temper. Even if the headquarters came down with the results, it would probably just be a job reprimand, a fine, or a written apology.

Shen Xu would absolutely not be satisfied with this outcome.

"What—what are you going to do?"

Suddenly, Murphy felt a bone-chilling coldness in front of her. When she looked up, she saw Shen Xu twirling a pen in his hand.

"Tell me all the information about Zhao Bin, his security guard level, his talents, and what strange things he has."

Shen Xu asked without any hesitation, "I'll count to three. If you don't tell me, I'll immediately launch the Ghost Domain Invasion and start killing people."

Upon hearing these words, Murphy felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.

For the first time, she had a feeling that this seemingly harmless student was more terrifying than Zhao Bin, that kind of arrogant and unreasonable thug.

"You can't do this!"

Murphy stood up agitatedly: "Shen Xu, your mental state is very unstable right now. The strange power should be your weapon to protect humanity. You shouldn't be controlled by such a power."

Shen Xu, too lazy to waste words, immediately began counting down: "Three, two—"

"I'll say it!"

Murphy quickly agreed, but his face still showed great struggle.

As Shen Xu put away his pen, the restless and eerie power instantly dissipated.

"That's right, Zhao Bin had you kidnapped and is trying to stir up trouble."

"How many people were killed when the Black Dragon Company's people caused a ghostly invasion at the Dragon Tower last time?"

"If I were to go to war with Black Dragon Company because I was instigated, the number of ordinary people who would die or be injured would be incalculable. At that time, not only would you, as an investigator, be unable to continue your job, but your bureau chief would also have to step down."

"I'm just going to settle a personal score with Zhao Bin. Let's keep our business separate and not involve others."

After this brainwashing, Murphy nodded silently and said, "I can tell you Zhao Bin's information, but you have to promise to take me with you when I go to see him."
