Among the popular stars in Lankawu that she knew, few could be compared with this Sarkaz.

"Clothes make the man, and saddles make the pack." Chen Xiu turned around and raised his hand to say, "Thanks to your good taste, you helped me choose this suitable outfit... By the way, where did you buy this Yanfu suit?"

Texas' ears twitched, pleased with what he said, and replied, "It's at the Excelle clothing store over there in the market."

Chen Xiu silently memorized the name, and then changed back into his old, shabby, and yellowed clothes.

To avoid Texas from misunderstanding, he also explained: "This is formal attire for formal occasions. It's not convenient to wear it at home to work, and it's too conspicuous in the slums. You can wear it when you need it in the future."

Seeing Chen Xiu happily put away the clothes, the Rupert girl said nothing more.

While the two were happy, someone else was furious.

"Fuck! Trash, trash! All trash!"

The third in command of Zhongyi Hall roared and kicked his younger brothers one by one, turning them into rolling balls.

"Such a big person is missing, and you guys didn't even notice? What's the point of keeping a bunch of good-for-nothings like you?"

"Boss, we only discovered Huang Mingjie was missing in the early morning, so we thought he had left early."

The strong man Pero knelt on the ground, holding his stomach. Although his face was distorted, he still tried his best to defend himself.

Pan Hu sneered and scolded, "Why don't you use your beasts of burden to think carefully? If that guy had the ability to escape from Longmen on his own, would he have come to us? Do you think the Guard Bureau is just for show?"

"Brother, we've found a clue!" The thug in a mandarin jacket hurried in to report, "There were signs of climbing on the outer wall near the window, and the door lock was pried open. We can confirm that the person was kidnapped."

Pan Hu's heart sank and he had a bad feeling.

This doesn't look like the work of the Guards. It's most likely the work of a bounty hunter.

I just don't know which gang this guy is from. Will he send the person directly to the Guard Bureau or come to negotiate with me?

Huang Mingjie is a nobody, but his father is an important partner of Zhongyitang. If this matter is not handled well, it will definitely affect his second brother's business.

Thinking of this, Pan Hu quickly made a phone call.

If Huang Mingjie had not fallen into the hands of the Guards, then there would still be a chance for this matter to turn around.

After a few beeps, a panicked and timid voice came from the phone.

"Master Tiger, isn't the repayment date still a few days away? Don't worry, I will definitely get the money together on time!"

"Han Jin, I'm not looking for you for money this time. Please help me check if Huang Mingjie has been arrested. This shouldn't be difficult for you, right?"

"It's not difficult, I'll help you check it right away."

After a burst of keyboard tapping, Han Jin quickly responded.

"Master Tiger, the wanted order for Huang Mingjie has been revoked. The one who sent him here to claim the reward is a Sarkaz named Chen Xiu."

"Chen Xiu? Sarkaz?" Pan Hu's eyes widened with anger as he pressed on, "Do you have any specific information about this guy?"

"He's not in the system. He's an illegal resident and not from the city," Han Jin replied.

Pan Hu hung up the phone.

Since he is not from the city, he must be from the slums.

In order to give an explanation to Boss Huang, we have no choice but to find and kill this stupid demon who dared to do bad things!

"Did you hear that? Go find him! Even if I have to dig three feet underground, I'll find this Sarkaz named Chen Xiu. I'm going to break his horns myself!"

So, the younger brothers under the third in command of Zhongyitang immediately took action.

In the Guard Bureau office, Han Jin listened to the bursts of dead tone coming from the terminal. It took him a long time before he dared to slowly put away the phone.

His eyes fell on the screen, and the words "30,000 bounty" on Huang Mingjie's wanted poster caught his eye, making his heart beat faster.

The repayment date is just a few days away, and I am still exactly 30,000 yuan short of what I need to pay back to the lender.

With the ruthless methods of Tiger Lord of Zhongyi Hall, this guy named Chen Xiu is probably dead!

If that’s the case, wouldn’t the bounty given to him be wasted?

It would be better to just embezzle the 30,000 yuan yourself.

The more Han Jin thought about it, the more he felt that this was feasible, and he started to do it with a smile.

"You're just a slum dweller. Isn't it easy for me to control a piece of trash like you?"

"What did you say? The Guards said the bounty had been paid out, but you didn't even get a penny!"

Inside the Huiwei Hall, Lin Yuxia glared at Uncle Niu who came to report to her, and her voice involuntarily rose a few notches.

Uncle Niu scratched his head and said, "I asked several times, and they all said that the system shows that the money has been distributed."

Lin Yuxia's heart trembled, and with her quick mind she immediately guessed what was going on.

Unexpectedly, there was someone in the Guards Bureau who actually dared to withhold the bounty.

It's not even embezzlement, but blatant misappropriation!

Thinking of Chen Xiu coming to see her in the morning, Lin Yuxia couldn't help but feel scared and ashamed.

If I hadn't helped him at that time, but instead promised him to go directly to the Guard Bureau, wouldn't that be harming him?

The Sarkaz youth's lonely, bitter smile still lingered before his eyes. What if he had truly been wronged? Who could help him get the money he deserved?

No! I must seek justice!

Lin Yuxia clenched her fists, and the surging momentum made Uncle Niu dare not breathe.

"Yuxia, what's wrong with you?" The Rat King came slowly and asked with a smile, "Who made you angry?"

Faced with her father's questioning, Lin Yuxia naturally did not hide anything and immediately explained the whole story.

"Dad! These guys are really going too far! They are simply termites of Longmen!"

The Rat King nodded and asked, "So what are you going to do?"

"Of course we have to find the culprit and give him a good lesson!" Lin Yuxia said proudly.

Unexpectedly, the Rat King smacked him with his cane and scolded him, "Nonsense! Do you think you can capture the people from the Guard Bureau now?"

The little mouse shrank back, feeling unwilling. "What should I do? I can't report it to the official channels, right?"

Chapter 14 New Information 2 (Please Read)

"Right, that is it!"

The Rat King said this and took out the terminal and placed it on the Eight Immortals Table.

"I have Commander Wei's phone number. Just one call will let him know about this."

Lin Yuxia's eyes lit up, her drooping tail suddenly rose up, and her wrinkled little face instantly became bright.

Wei Yanwu is the Governor of Longmen and the supreme commander of the Longmen Guard Bureau.

If he ordered an investigation, this matter would surely be resolved quickly, and those black sheep in the Guard Bureau would receive the severe punishment they deserve!

Just when Lin Yuxia was eager to try, the Rat King changed the subject again.

"What? Are you really planning on bothering Commander Wei over such a small matter? You're quite the daredevil, girl."

"How can this be a minor matter?" Lin Yuxia argued. "As the saying goes, we should nip problems in the bud. We can't wait until the entire Guard Bureau is completely rotten before rectifying it, right?"

"Logic is logic, and action is action." The Rat King tapped the table and emphasized, "Black and white are intertwined, just like the city and the slums are two sides of the same coin for Longmen. We are Chief Wei's hidden agents, helping him monitor the movements of gangs and supervise the operation of municipal institutions."

The Rat King couldn't help but think of the time when Longmen was in ruins and this was the time when the two of them had decided on this matter.

He laughed at himself and said, "There are many things that can be kept secret from everyone, but they can't be kept secret from us rats who spend all day snooping in the gutter!"

Lin Yuxia seemed to be lost in thought, and she probably understood what her father meant.

"This matter isn't serious enough to be reported to Commander Wei, but if we uncover more serious evidence of a crime within the Imperial Guard..."

"That's right. I will call Commander Wei personally when the time comes," the Rat King promised. "Of course, you have to produce sufficient, real and valid evidence. This is no joke."

Lin Yuxia's heart trembled, knowing that this was a warning to herself not to be clever.

She also understood the seriousness of the matter. Although she wanted to vent her anger as soon as possible, she would not do anything rash because of it.

"I understand." A sharp look flashed in the eyes of the Zalak girl, and she assured confidently: "I will get to the bottom of the dirty work in the Guard Bureau!"

Looking at his daughter's back as she quickly left, the Rat King was silent for a long time.

He believed that Yuxia must have also realized that this was a temporary test for her by him.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have set the tone so high right from the start, directly slapping Governor Longmen's personal contact information on the table as the ultimate reward for passing this test of ability.

Yuxia was indeed aroused by her competitive spirit and did not ask why she did not call the inspector.

This is indeed like me. I just don't want to admit defeat. Once I have chosen the best, I will never settle for second best!

The Rat King stroked his beard, a smug smile appeared on his majestic face, and his eyes were full of satisfaction.

However, he did not hold much hope for the final result of his daughter's test.

After all, she is still too young and immature, with only energy and passion.

"Well, let the young man see the immensity of the world."

Lin Yuxia naturally knew that this matter was not going to be easy.

Even if the power of Huiweitang is mobilized, it is not easy to find out the truth.

Unless he could snatch some core resources from his father's hands, but doing so would be tantamount to admitting defeat.

Besides that, what else could he use? A new team that hadn't been assembled yet? He felt lucky if they didn't hold him back.

As I was frowning and thinking carefully, Uncle Niu suddenly ran over.

"Oh no, Miss! The guy who came to see you this morning is suddenly wanted by Zhongyi Hall!"

"What's going on?" Lin Yuxia's train of thought was interrupted, and she asked urgently, "How did he get involved with those bastards from Zhongyi Hall? Tell me in detail!"

"I don't know either," Uncle Niu reported. "I also heard from others that Zhongyitang is looking for him everywhere. I don't know the specific reason, but I can be sure that it was the order from the Third In command, Tiger Lord."

The third in command of Zhongyitang is in the smuggling business, and this is known to everyone in the slums.

Lin Yuxia suddenly had an extremely absurd guess in her mind. Could it be that the wanted criminal was snatched from Zhongyi Hall by Chen Xiu?

But if he had this ability, why would he almost starve to death?

Lin Yuxia couldn't figure it out, but the most urgent thing was to find him quickly and let him find a secluded place to hide.

But it is not easy to find a homeless person in the slums, so I have to change my approach.

"Uncle Niu, tell the people below you that no one is allowed to act without my order."

The gangs in the slums are complex and each has its own territory in the neighborhood.

Zhongyitang can only find people in its own territory, and in other places it can only ask the local controllers for help. Generally, everyone will make a symbolic contribution.

Therefore, as long as Chen Xiu stays in the territory of Huiweitang, he will be safe for the time being.

Lin Yuxia felt that with the guy's intelligence and caution, he would definitely not run around after taking the money.

When I heard the news, I found a place to hide.

Chen Xiu was lying on the bed with his legs crossed.

He was the only one on the empty double bed, Texas opting to sleep on the couch.

He originally wanted to sleep on the sofa, but Miss Wolf said that she could better protect him if she slept outside, as this was a bodyguard's duty.

Although the crime rate in the slums is very high, it’s not possible that you would be robbed by gangsters just after renting a house for a few days, right?

But Texas was very stubborn about this, so in the end Chen Xiu rolled over and slept on the bed.

Close your eyes, count down silently in your heart, and a new day comes quietly.
