Chapter 300 Starting the Battle from the Side
Siwu Road, in the tranquil spring, is a place where Yunlong and his group take a short rest.
Although the restaurant [Ninja Gathering] was shut down, the massage parlor was preserved. The owner is still Zhuque, but this Zhuque is different from the previous owner. She doesn't like to come here, so the assistant manager has been helping to run the business.
The assistant store manager's name is Xiaoya, and she is a diligent person.
After Yunlong and the others arrived here, they were taken care of perfectly.
In the quiet private room on the second floor, Yunlong sat comfortably on the sofa, flipping through the booklet that Zhuque had given him yesterday. The contents were indeed completely different from what he had seen on the official website.
According to Suzaku's records, Violet can be said to be one of the earliest magical girls in Yeqiu City of Xia Kingdom, but the place where she first appeared to deal with calamities was not Yeqiu City, but Ninomiya City.
If we infer from this timeline, they only need to investigate who traveled from Yeqiu City to Ninomiya City during that period and then returned from Ninomiya City to Yeqiu City.
After filtering through this group again, we can basically confirm Violet's real identity.
Thinking of this, Yunlong looked at a woman beside him and instructed, "Li Lan, this task is assigned to you. Carefully screen them for me."
"Okay." The woman nodded.
As Yunlong turned more and more pages, his expression grew increasingly solemn. Wasn't this Violet Mage's record a bit frightening?
When she first became a magical girl, her strength was only at the [Seed] level, but dealing with [Meteor] and [Eclipse] level abyssal monsters was as easy as drinking water and eating.
His subsequent growth was as easy as if he had a cheat code. When he was in the [Budding] stage, he killed the Abyss Spider of the [Falling Sun] level. When he was in the [Scattered Leaves] stage, he killed the Abyss Cutter of the [Shura] level. When he was in the [Breakthrough] stage, he killed the Death Cutter of the [Shura] level.
When [Blooming] was in full bloom, she had already killed several Abyss Demon Generals, and even started leading the Violet Judgment Squad to besiege the Abyss Nest and the Abyss Demoness.
But all of this was brought to a standstill by the calamity that struck Moon Mountain.
Because they were too prominent, it seemed that the Abyss had its eye on them. Originally, Violet led the Violet Judgment Squad to besiege an Abyss Demon General, but they were instead besieged by three Abyss Demonesses.
According to the most credible information online, Captain Violet was instantly reduced to a human form, leaving only one crippled member of the Violet Judgment Squad alive.
The Violet Judgment Squad was thus removed from the list. Although the Violet Mage reappeared in Yeqiu City a year later, her strength was suspected to have been greatly weakened, and she could only exert the strength of the [Breakthrough] level at present.
[Breaking the Bud]?
"Hehe--" Yunlong chuckled coldly. He might not understand the specific strength of Violet, but he understood the strength of his younger brother Qinglong very well.
Let alone a magical girl at the [Budding] level, even against a magical girl at the [Blooming] level, he could at least escape without a problem, if not win.
Seeing this, either the information Suzaku gave him was wrong, or Violet's strength may have been weakened, but she is still hiding other secrets.
"Ma Yu, go to the doctor and borrow two [Breakthrough] level demonic weapons."
"This... Brother, what am I supposed to say if the professor asks about this?"
"Just tell him that as long as I, Yunlong, deal with Violet, I will personally forge her into a demonic weapon and send it to the Doctor."
The mere mention of the name Violet ignited a surge of anger in Yunlong's eyes.
"I see."
Ma Yu sighed. Since the last calamity, the traitor base had very few [Fallen Weapons].
The booklet didn't contain much information, and Yunlong basically finished reading it in about 20 or 30 minutes.
Besides the two suspicious points he had his subordinates investigate, he himself turned his attention to the third point, which was the biggest fatal flaw that the other party had exposed so far—the Lotus Mage.
The identity of the Lotus Mage was recently discovered by Xuanwu; she is Chen Yao from the Yeqiu City Comprehensive District Hospital.
"Fang Yu, go to the Yeqiu City Comprehensive District Hospital and check if Chen Yao was admitted to the hospital after the Moon Mountain disaster. Confirm that her identity information is correct, and also find out who has visited her recently and what her daily life activities are."
"clear"
The last young man in the private room disappeared after receiving the order.
Looking at the empty room, Yunlong rested his chin on his hand and fell into deep thought. Now he just needed to wait for these three pieces of information to be confirmed. If all the information was correct, then the small request made by Zhuque would be nothing.
The only thing he couldn't understand was why Suzaku, whose strength didn't seem weak, didn't go himself.
Thinking of this, he was about to send someone over to investigate again, but when he looked around, he suddenly realized that all his subordinates had been sent out and there was no one left to call.
After a long silence, Yunlong made a phone call, gave a few instructions, and then hung up, as if to let the other party atone for their sins.
To be precise, the other party did not actually commit any crime, but their own younger brother was dead.
The fact that you, as a subordinate, didn't die is the original sin, isn't it?
Inside a white sugar processing plant, the snow-white rock sugar gleams slightly under the lights, like frost flowers in winter, pure and pleasing to the eye. Workers in clean white uniforms pick up electronic scales and pour in crystal-clear, uniformly shaped rock sugar granules, ensuring that each batch meets the prescribed weight standard.
After confirming there were no problems, another employee took the bag, quickly sealed it, and affixed a label with detailed information.
Finally, the packages are sealed and transported by unified transport vehicles to express stations, and then mailed to various parts of Xia Kingdom.
Inside the office on the second floor, a slightly chubby young man was comfortably sitting in the boss's chair playing on his phone. Sometimes when he got tired of playing, he would glance at the progress of the staff below and then continue playing the game.
Beside him stood a middle-aged man, his weathered face tinged with a hint of humility, who respectfully said:
"Mr. Wan, you've invested heavily in contracting this white sugar factory. Are there any areas where our working hours or management system need improvement?"
Hearing what the middle-aged man said, the young man raised his head, pondered for a moment, and said, "According to what you say, it does seem necessary to make some improvements. As the saying goes, a new broom sweeps clean."
Hearing that the young man seemed to take his words seriously, the middle-aged man really wanted to slap himself in the face.
But he quickly took out his notebook and flashed a bright smile: "Mr. Wan, please speak."
"From now on, the start time for work will be changed from 7:00 AM to 8:30 AM, and the end time for get off work will be changed from 7:00 PM to 5:30 PM. Oh, and we will also set aside an hour for employees to rest at noon."
"Oh? Mr. Wan, isn't this a bit inappropriate? We're just a small factory; if we do this, we won't make much money!"
When the middle-aged man heard what the young man said, he didn't dare to continue writing. Nine-to-five was just talk; if it were actually implemented, the economic benefits for small factories like theirs would be greatly reduced.
"So now, who's the boss, you or me? If you don't want to, you can leave right now."
Wan Jie pressed his phone down, his gaze falling on the middle-aged man in front of him, a hint of coldness creeping into his smiling face.
In the past month, he has gained weight from anxiety in his efforts to complete Erkani's mission.
He went from being a skinny guy weighing 110 pounds to a fat guy weighing 180 pounds.
As the saying goes, it's easy to gain weight, but hard to lose it!
"Ahem, of course you're the boss. I'll give the order right now to start implementing this work schedule system tomorrow."
The middle-aged man felt a sudden chill when he saw the young man's gaze. This was clearly a young man in his early twenties, yet he was putting so much pressure on him.
"Um?"
"Pah, pah, pah, let's start implementing this today."
The middle-aged man looked at Wan Jie in front of him, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and hurriedly retreated.
Only after leaving the office did the middle-aged man cautiously look around. After confirming that no one was around, he spat out a disgusted remark, "I wonder which rich kid started this business. In a month or two, you'll see how bad the factory's profits and performance are. These employees are all ungrateful wretches. If you dare to feed them vegetables today, they'll want meat tomorrow."
Wan Jie, who was in the office, watched the middle-aged man's back gradually disappear into the distance and chuckled a few times. What a joke! He didn't really intend to make money by selling candy. What he was selling was candy plus Soul Ink Fragments. He could complete the doctor's mission, earn some extra money, and still slack off at work while collecting the traitor base's salary.
Killing three birds with one stone, just as he was about to continue playing games and slacking off at work, a call came in from an unknown number.
After a long while, Wan Jie stared blankly at the phone that had just been hung up.
what?
What kind of nonsense is this? Telling him to investigate Chigen Yama?
The older brother called and asked him to investigate his older brother's girlfriend...
On the other hand, after communicating with her strategist Chen Yao, Ning Zixuan decided that they could no longer defeat Hoshino Seri on the front lines, so they would try to start a fight from the side.
Therefore, she came over today right after we talked about it yesterday, mainly emphasizing that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Of course, the necessary appointments and gifts beforehand are essential.
Even if the other party doesn't have much of a relationship with Bai Yuzhe, she'll just consider it a meeting with a top business tycoon in Yeqiu City.
The headquarters of Baiyun Group is located in a commercial area in Tianxin District. When Ning Zixuan learned this news, she was actually very puzzled, because most large enterprises are usually located in the Moon Bay commercial area of Changwu District. Not only does the government provide a lot of support and subsidies to enterprises there, but the headquarters of Magical Girl is also located there. If a disaster occurs, the adjudication teams from various regions will rush there as soon as possible.
Just like the previous calamity at Moon Bay, the Kikyo Judgment Team in Tianxin District received the information immediately and rushed over.
Perhaps this business tycoon has ulterior motives.
Ning Zixuan is driving a Mi SU7 today. This car has a good reputation across all social classes. Ordinary people think it's cost-effective, and rich people think it's cool. People can drive it when they have free time.
Of course, for Ning Zixuan, the main reason was that Bai Yuze also had one, so they would have a couple's car.
After parking her car, Ning Zixuan took two documents out of the car. Soon after, a pretty receptionist approached her with a warm smile: "Hello, miss, are you Ms. Ning?"
"Um."
"Okay, Miss Ning, please come with me."
The receptionist smiled and led Ning Zixuan to the elevator, pressing the button for the 9th floor.
"My name is Bai Xiaoqi, you can call me Xiaoqi."
"OK."
While waiting, Ning Zixuan looked around the environment of Baiyun Group. She only had one feeling here, which was "quiet".
It was a quiet place unlike any other company, without the noisy chatter or arguments of its employees.
All that could be seen was each employee sitting at their own post, focused on their own tasks. They seemed to be independent individuals, not interfering with each other, which surprised and puzzled Ning Zixuan, but it wasn't easy to ask them.
At the same time, Ning Zixuan always felt that Bai Xiaoqi was looking at her strangely.
Forehead....
It's like when a son-in-law visits his wife's family and is scrutinized and observed by all sorts of relatives.
That's right, although it feels very strange, that's the feeling Bai Xiaoqi gives her.
When she took her younger brother to the woman's house to propose marriage, the woman's relatives looked at her brother with this kind of gaze. Although there was no malice, the displeasure of having their own precious daughter taken advantage of was very obvious.
When the elevator doors opened, Ning Zixuan was not presented with an office, but with a spacious and bright gym. Most large companies have such facilities so that employees can exercise during their free time.
However, it was clear that the employees of Baiyun Group were still at work at this time, and the only one who had time to exercise was Bai Xiaoyuan, the CEO of Baiyun Group.
In the spacious and bright gym, the only sound was the soft lapping of water.
At this moment, Bai Xiaoqi led her to another room, where there was a spacious swimming pool, in which a graceful woman wearing a light green swimsuit was swimming.
The speed was so fast that even Ning Zixuan was a little taken aback.
Although she doesn't follow swimming competitions much, the other person's speed was clearly beyond that of most ordinary people.
"Miss Ning, this is our CEO Bai. If you have anything to discuss, you can talk to her. By the way, we've already prepared your swimsuit." Bai Xiaoqi smiled and took a light purple swimsuit from the wardrobe next to her and placed it on the chair.
"OK, thanks."
Ning Zixuan nodded slightly, expressing her gratitude to the beautiful girl.
Only two people remained in the empty swimming pool.
The figure in the water seemed not to have seen Ning Zixuan and Bai Xiaoqi enter, and continued to thrash about.
Her long, smooth, black hair swayed gently with the rhythm of her body immersing in the water, like an inky ribbon dancing in the azure water.
Her skin shone with a warm, pearly glow under the sunlight, and every swing of her arms perfectly showcased her elegant and graceful figure.
Ning Zixuan gritted her teeth, thinking, "You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub."
She put the documents aside, took the swimsuit next to her, and went to the changing room to change into the light purple swimsuit that Bai Xiaoqi had prepared for her.
She had expected the swimsuit to be either too loose or too tight, but neither happened. The swimsuit fit her perfectly, as if it had been purchased specifically to match her measurements. But how did they know this information about her?
Perhaps it was just a coincidence.
When I first got into the water, I could clearly feel that it was a bit cold.
But once she was fully submerged and adjusted, the feeling of being enveloped in water was quite pleasant.
That's great. When she gets back, she'll build a swimming pool in the company, just for her.
No, it belongs exclusively to her and Bai Yuzhe.
Shortly after Ning Zixuan went into the water, Bai Xiaoyuan, who was swimming in the water, seemed to have just noticed that there was another person in the room and swam towards Ning Zixuan.
"Who are you?"
"Mr. Bai, I'm Ning Zixuan from Yinmo Hotel. You can just call me Xiao Ning."
Ning Zixuan looked at the beautiful woman in front of her, appearing reserved on the surface, but her heart was in turmoil. She had always thought that Bai Xiaoyuan, the CEO of Baiyun Group, was at least a woman in her thirties or forties, if not an old woman in her forties or fifties.
However, Bai Xiaoyuan in front of her looked to be at most a year or two older than herself.
How did someone so young become the CEO of Baiyun Group?
Ah, no, that's not the point. The other person is so young, could Bai Yuze really be being kept by him?
