Hidden Corners

Three days later.

Durnis \u0026 Associates.

Li Chengyi sat on the boss's chair and turned around and around, listening to the voices of office workers buying breakfast at the newsstand downstairs, feeling a little leisurely and peaceful for a while.

I once again sensed the location of Hua Yuzhu as a routine, and it was still mid-air in the study room of this office.

It was precisely because of this that he decided to acquire this place and investigate the surrounding situation.

Nihen cannot be used here, and the flower language pearl summoning also loses its effect.

The last remaining breath was right here, two meters in the air in front of where he was sitting.

That's Paine's flowery pearl aura.

Li Chengyi suspected that there was an entrance to an unknown space or blind spot, but he could not capture it because it was too hidden and for some other special reasons.

But the aura is still here, and the location is still here. As long as you wait and investigate what happened here, you should be able to get clues.

As for what to do with the waiting time?

Of course, practicing the Thousand Faced Sword Code and studying the building summoning ability of the Flower of Evil.

With twelve kinds of flower language abilities in his body, what he wants to do is to continuously evolve all flowers into their ultimate form.

On the surface, accepting simple business entrustments and finding out the details of this place can be regarded as a simple adjustment.

And those monsters in ordinary cities... wait and see when they reach the speed of sound.

"Boss, I brought my other daughter Alan here. We also need someone to help with cleaning here. I thought it wouldn't be safe to leave her alone at home, so"

Outside the study-office room, Dunis walked in with a calm-tempered girl with long black shawl hair.

"It doesn't matter. Ensuring employee safety is one of the benefits I provide as a boss." Li Chengyi turned his chair and looked at the two people who entered the door.

After sorting out, Dunis finally regained the ability and calmness of a normal middle-aged hunter. His muscular lines looked very strong, giving customers a strong sense of security and trust.

Overall, this would be a good hire.

As for the other one.

She has black hair, red eyes, and fair skin. She looks like a pretty girl with a cool look. She has a slender figure and looks tall and well-proportioned at a height of about 1.7 meters.

Wearing a long skirt with a black plaid pattern on a red background and a white shirt, with a dark red collar flower on the collar, and the same dark red hairpin on her head.

But the strange thing is that the girl looked at him with a look of caution and repulsion.

Exclusion?

Li Chengyi was a little confused. Logically speaking, he was the opponent's protector, so how could he be repulsive? How did this emotion arise?

"Nice to meet you. I'm Nilan Alter. Thank you for letting me work here." The girl took a step forward and bowed seriously to Li Chengyi.

"The salary is five thousand, including cleaning the three floors of the basement. Is that okay?" Li Chengyi said casually.

"Leave it to me." Nilan affirmed.

"That's good, let's go out." Li Chengyi waved his hand.

Dunis can just arrange the rest of the chores. Next, he needs to get to know this place well.

Taking out a stack of newspapers bought this morning, Li Chengyi began to take notes carefully and summarize the information.

There is no daily use of computers here at all, and it is still in the era when computers are just beginning, so newspapers are the most important way to obtain information.

‘The old city renovation project officially begins today. ’

‘Provincial Security Minister Ludy Bildt arrived at Weida Company during his inspection tour and began a three-day food safety inspection. ’

‘The Beauty of My Hometown—Exploring the Ancient Ruins of Ludian. ’

‘Wings of the Sun, a national large-scale magic show, will soon start selling tickets in this city. ’

All persons involved in the major drug trafficking case on November 2 were successfully arrested yesterday. ’

One piece of useful or useless news was ignored by Li Chengyi. He stood up and rummaged through the bookshelf in the room to find a federal map.

Open it and find the local city of Ludian.

Soon an irregular city map like dough appeared in front of him.

Among the five urban districts, new and old districts are alternating, renewing the metabolism of the entire city.

The entire Ludian population last year was estimated at 7.65 million permanent residents. It is surrounded by three large agricultural counties and provides food supply for the entire urban area.

Putting down the map, Li Chengyi stood up and walked to the window and looked down.

He casually took out a yellow crystal bead and played with it, carefully recalling the records he had read before.

‘There are a lot of people in the Mingyuan Group. If they all leave at once, it will definitely cause a stir, and it is highly likely that they will be seen by people around them. ’

He straightened his collar, turned around, left the room, and went downstairs.

Then he pretended to be wandering and walked to the old department store opposite.

He picked on the shelves and took a piece of chocolate. When he was checking out, he looked at the old lady who was collecting the money.

"Sister, can I ask something?"

"What's the matter?" The old lady curled her hair, holding a small mirror in her hand and tracing her eyebrows with an eyebrow pencil. She replied casually without raising her head when she heard the voice.

"Have there been any big movements around here in recent years? For example, many people have come here or something?"

"How many years? Do you think I can remember things that took so long in the past few years?" The aunt raised her head and rolled her eyes at him.

But when she looked up and saw Li Chengyi's face, her original impatience softened.

"However, speaking carefully, two years ago, there seemed to be a lot of people who came here to film movies and other things, and they dressed in weird clothes." She added.

"Do you remember which film company it was for making the movie and what their name was?" Li Chengyi asked again.

On the other side, outside the iron fence at the back door of the office, a shiny black toad-eyed car slowed down slowly and stopped at the back door exit.

The car door opened, and two men in sunglasses, dressed in black suits and top hats, got out.

"Is this right here?" The taller man raised his head and looked at the situation in the office through his sunglasses.

"Yes. He was able to break away from the spiritual suggestion on the invitation. It seems that this former hunter still has some abilities."

"I heard that this place was sold a few days ago, to a stranger. Dunis himself has not left, and is still working here." The tall man whispered.

"Then just take him away together. According to the Sunlight Agreement, if he commits a foul first, we have the right to dispose of his body and blood relatives."

"It's been a long time since I've tasted such high-quality blood food. I can't wait! The wonderful aroma."

The two men casually pushed open the locked back door. The copper lock was like tofu in their hands, with no sense of existence.

Entering the back garden, Dunis had already noticed the movement in advance, holding a pistol and looking down from the second floor.

The moment he saw the two of them, his expression changed drastically. He held his breath and quickly turned around to find his daughter Nilan who was cleaning the mop.

"Alan, go find the boss at the main entrance! The people from New Moon are here! Let him start immediately if he has any connections!" Dunis said quickly.

Nilan saw her father's seriousness, dropped the mop and ran away.

Bang.

At this time, the glass door of the back garden was opened, and the wind chime hanging on the door made a crisp sound to remind someone to enter.

Dunis sent his daughter away, took a deep breath, clenched his pistol, and stood in the corridor on the second floor, staring at the wooden stairs going upstairs.

Wait for the other person to go upstairs.

"I hope it's okay. I hope it's in time!" He kept calming the beating of his heart, recalling the scenes of fighting those inhuman beings when he was a hunter.

The blood seemed to be accelerating and rushing throughout his body again.

the other side.

Nilan ran downstairs panting and found Li Chengyi walking out of the small shop.

"The people from New Moon are here?" Li Chengyi was stunned. "They are here right now? Do they dare to attack us in broad daylight? There are so many people around."

"You don't know what the new moon is?? What does it mean!?" Nilan was stunned and looked at him in disbelief.

"What? If we really take action, wouldn't it be better to go back and deal with them?" Li Chengyi said inexplicably.

Naturally, he had already sensed the approach of the two people, but those two people were only slightly stronger than ordinary people in physical fitness. The ant-like guy is not much better than Dunis.

Moreover, Dunis had a gun on him. If they really wanted to fight, those two people would not be his opponents.

This was also the main reason why Li Chengyi didn't panic.

"Xinyue is a member of the same Sunlight Council!! My father accidentally violated the regulations before. According to the regulations, he did not dare to do anything! Otherwise, he would be resisting arrest!" Nilan was so anxious that she was about to get angry. Seeing that Li Chengyi still had a look on his face An unhurried expression.

"Don't dare to take action? Why?" Li Chengyi asked doubtfully.

"Because it's illegal to do anything! You can only use force against New Moon from above. They are part of the forces that support the daylight agreement and represent order under the sun. Fighting against them means fighting against the authorities. The police and the army will only stand by them. One side." Nilan explained quickly, sweat dripping from her forehead.

"Okay, I got it. Dunis doesn't dare to take action, right? Then I'll do it." Li Chengyi said nonchalantly.

"This is not a matter of action! Don't mess around! If you violate the rules, you will not be protected by official hunters! Do you know common sense?" Nilan became angry.

Li Chengyi was too lazy to care about her and rushed back directly.

He had only taken a few steps when his feet suddenly stopped.

It wasn't that he didn't want to go back, but that the two people suddenly paused inexplicably, then quickly retreated in the direction of departure.

Looking back, he saw Nilan biting her lips tightly, her pretty face turning pale, and looking at a white gold-rimmed car parked on the roadside in the distance.

In the back row of the car, you can see through the glass a girl in a white dress with purple and black ponytails. The girl has a gentle and noble temperament, and she gestures to Nilan from a distance to get it done.

"Look what I'm doing!? Go back quickly!" Nilan came back to her senses, almost feeling that her secret was exposed, and suddenly became angry and said.

"I suddenly don't want to go back. I believe Mr. Dunis can solve this little trouble." Li Chengyi smiled and walked slowly along the street.

It can be seen that this Nilan also has her own secret, and it is probably a secret that she has not communicated with her father.

No wonder the look in her eyes when she saw him at first was not closeness, but wariness and repulsion.

But Li Chengyi is not interested in these. Now that it has been solved, it will be fine.

"You!!?" Nilan stamped her feet angrily, made a gesture of thanks to her companions in the car, and hurried back to the office.

If her father hadn't insisted on taking her to apply for the job, how could she have come to clean this place! ?

That bastard boss thought he had some skills, but he started boasting so loudly that he actually took action and didn't even dare to answer the door!
