Chapter Thirteen Fist

In the temporary law enforcement office, eight charred corpses were covered with white cloths.

Lao Bai sat in front of the Baishiling Law Enforcement Director with a pipe in his mouth.

"I sent the surveillance video to your email."

"Old Bai, someone from above wants to deal with you." The director took off his reading glasses and said, "I can't protect you if the law enforcement teams of the three cities jointly handle the case."

"Then let him do it. Just talk and don't practice tricks." Lao Bai puffed on his cigarette and said, "I didn't rely on your protection to survive."

"...In this case, you hand over your weapons and I will deal with it from above."

"Weapons? What weapons? I don't have weapons here, only antiques." Lao Bai's robotic arm tapped his fingers on the table: "Something like an antique collection certificate."

"Isn't there another troll?"

"I don't know, I haven't seen it."

"..."

Director Baishiling was so angry that his teeth itched.

"How many days will it be closed to avoid the limelight?"

"If someone makes trouble, let him come. White Rock Tavern welcomes all guests."

Lao Bai left the law enforcement office after throwing 10g of concentrated yridium metal on the table.

The new law enforcement officer on the side was indignant.

"Director! What does this old guy think of the Law Enforcement Department? Let me take a few brothers to raid the White Rock Tavern!"

"Robbing the restaurant?" The director smiled bitterly: "The old guy has two sets of powered exoskeleton armor in the basement."

"ah?!"

"One more dirty bomb is enough to blow up the entire Baishi Ridge."

"woc?"

"I'm not afraid of the old man, I'm afraid of the mad dog."



Chen Mo leaned against the door of Baishi Tavern and smoked.

I was relieved to see Lao Bai back with his beard and tail intact.

"How did you convince the law enforcement officer not to come to the tavern to check on people?"

"Persuasion is of no use, all troubles come from your fists." Lao Bai opened the rolling shutter door: "I guess someone will come to make trouble. You can leave in a few days."

"I originally planned to leave after being in the limelight."

Zheng Qiuhong came out from behind the door with sleepy eyes.

Yesterday, after seeing the dead bodies with their heads shot, she vomited bile and was so frightened that she could not sleep.

In the second half of the night, I rested beside Chen Mo and fell asleep for a short while.

"Are you feeling better?"

Chen Mo handed Zheng Qiuhong a piece of baked waffle.

"Much better." The girl nodded: "I'm not used to seeing dead people for the first time, but I'll get better gradually."

Lao Bai looked down at Zheng Qiuhong.

"Aren't you afraid?"

"Afraid."

"I mean, aren't you afraid of us?"

Zheng Qiuhong shook his head.

"Why are you afraid of you two? You are killing the bad guys who want to kidnap me."

Lao Bai smiled and looked at Chen Mo.

"I like this girl."

Chen Mo shrugged and handed Zheng Qiuhong a cup of coffee.

"Try to do it yourself next time?"

Zheng Qiuhong hesitated for a moment.

"good."

At half past three in the afternoon, the pub opens.

All four guys came to the store.

Taking advantage of the absence of guests, Lao Bai said, "I have never formally introduced Chen Mo, my son, and Zheng Qiuhong, his partner."

Zheng Qiuhong's face turned crimson.

"Xiao Mo, Luna needs no introduction, right?" Lao Bai hugged a tall woman with dark skin.

The woman is about forty years old, with bulging shoulder muscles and short hair.

He is only slightly shorter than Chen Mo, has a stern face, a scar runs through his cheek, and his throat has been replaced with a prosthesis.

Of course Chen Mo recognized her, she was Lao Bai's subordinate and part-time Chen Mo's half-mother.

"Aunt Luna."

The woman nodded.

"Kang Jiajia, mechanic, bartender." Lao Bai introduced.

The young boy with a flat head wearing glasses whistled: "We have met a few times before. I thought he was a friend of the boss, but I didn't expect him to be the young boss's family. Let me know what you want to drink."

"Rui Chengwen and Rui Chengwu, the twin brothers, I picked them up from the Jiangyin boxing market. They are good at fighting."

The twin brothers are not tall and have honest smiles on their faces. They look more like miners than boxers.

"Just a simple meeting." Lao Bai sat in his exclusive corner: "Xiao Mo is here to take refuge. Someone will come to cause trouble recently."

"Looking for trouble! Looking for trouble!"

No one feeds the macaw, and I usually don’t know where this colorful guy is. But during the meeting, it came back of its own accord and stood on Lao Bai’s shoulder to help.

Everyone is accustomed to it.

"You smell blood at the back door. Wasn't it peaceful last night?"

Luna opened and closed her mouth, emitting an electronically synthesized sound.

"Well, yesterday some thieves kidnapped Qiu Hong, and Xiao Mo and I took care of them."

Luna nodded.

"The people who are causing trouble for us may be AC ​​people, people from the law enforcement department, or bounty hunters. These little bastards are very capable of killing people, so I can't guarantee that everything will be safe during the day. You all need to cheer up and be more careful.

.”

"Don't worry, boss." Kang Jiajia smiled and said, "If someone comes to cause trouble, you will definitely regret it."

The twins said honestly that everyone was welcome to kill him and they would be responsible for burying it.

Luna looked at her watch: "It's almost time to shut down the mine. Let's drink and get ready to work."

Everyone dispersed, storing wine and setting up chairs in an orderly manner. They didn't look like they were facing a formidable enemy.

Pointing at the busy brothers, Lao Bai picked up his pipe.

"These three boys are all carefully selected by me. The twin brothers are down-to-earth and willing to work hard. They are the first to rush into the dirty work. Although Xiaokang is a bit skinny, he has very strong skills, from exoskeleton maintenance to hacking.

They are all good at technology.”

Chen Mo nodded.

"More importantly." Lao Bai paused: "They are very loyal and good at killing people."

Chen Mo was thoughtful.

Soon it was time to close the mine.

The White Rock Tavern was overcrowded.

Chen Mo and others were extremely busy.

Lao Bai was not as leisurely as before, sitting in a private corner and looking at the drinkers coming and going.

Most of the drinkers were miners, and a few bounty hunters dressed as miners were spotted by Lao Bai at a glance.

it's actually really easy.

The miners will only look at the beautiful girl at the front desk, not the window bar, which is suitable for breakouts and hidden corners.

Every time at this time, Lao Bai would step forward, pat the bounty hunter with his robotic arm, and say sincerely that life is meaningful only if it means making money.

Those who were timid were simply scared away.

Anyone who wanted to draw a gun was without exception disarmed by Lao Bai, carried out and beaten into pig heads.

As soon as it was past twelve o'clock, the bell rang, and most of the drinkers who didn't want to fight went back to their dormitories to sleep.

Only three tables of drinkers were left drinking and fist-fighting.

Soon, two more tables of people checked out and left, seeing that it was getting late.

Only the last table remains.

A man wearing a long trench coat and a cowboy hat was holding a cup of draft beer and drinking from it.

The cowboy hat was pulled down so low that Lao Bai couldn't even see his face clearly.

Chen Mo pressed Lao Bai down as he stood up, took a glass of beer, and sat down opposite the man.

"How did you come?"

The man in the trench coat raised his head, his face was very similar to that of the fierce man.

"I've even changed my appearance, how did you recognize me?!"

"..." Chen Mo pinched his eyebrows, "Tell me first what you are doing here."

"A letter has arrived for you."

"What letter?"

"The result of your case has come out. I don't know who in the higher-ups thinks you have merit or demerit. Not only did they help you exonerate you, but they also vigorously boasted in front of the media that besides Zheng Qi, there is an unknown hero."

"Huh?" Chen Moqi asked: "Shouldn't the unsung hero I'm talking about be you?"

"No, I am very famous. The unsung hero must be talking about you."

"..."

Although I don’t know where the fierce man got his confidence, he probably wouldn’t be aimless.

Chen Mo thought for a moment and nodded.

"How do you know my location?"

"Have you not read Headhunting.com recently? AC posted a headline on Headhunting.com offering a reward, saying that the bounty hunter whose ID is Ye Xiao has stolen their company's property and is hiding in the White Rock Tavern. Night Owl does not care whether he lives or lives, and will be rewarded as long as he brings back the stolen property.

Five million in cash."

"The commission is very generous."

"Nonsense, how long has it been since Kurt posted a bounty in the headlines? But everyone knows that Night Owl is the bounty god with a 100% mission completion rate, so there are still very few people who dare to trouble you."

"few?"

Chen Mo shook his head.

At least twenty bounty hunters came today. Is this still a small number?

"You came here just for this?"

The sound of a fierce cough.

"Of course not... By the way, AC said that the property you stole was that girl?"

"I didn't take anything else."

"Then Zheng Qiuhong is the top priority." The fierce man sighed: "Boss Hex also posted information on the headhunting website. The content of the information is to help Ye Xiao, and the reward is 200,000. Do you know what this means?

!”

Chen Mo was confused.

The fierce man's thinking is too out-of-the-box, and he can't keep up.

"What?"

"The reason why Hex was able to break the monopoly was because many of its unique technologies could not be copied by AC. At this time, AC attacked Hex not only because Mr. Su went to his home planet for treatment, but probably because AC had mastered it.

Some kind of means to break the bottleneck of existing technology. Combined with what you said before, I have reason to believe that Zheng Qiuhong is the technological breakthrough of AC. Boss Hex offers a reward to help you, which is a disguised show of goodwill and wants to tie up both you and Zheng Qiuhong.

Get on his chariot. Not only to thank you for saving his daughter, but also to ensure that you will not be eaten by AC."

Chen Mo and Zheng Qiuhong looked at each other.

What the fierce man said is probably the true intention of Boss Hex.

"What do you want to do?" Chen Mo lowered his voice: "Want me to hand over Zheng Qiuhong to Hex?"

"Of course not!" The fierce man slapped the table: "Am I like the kind of person who can sell everything for money?"

"picture."

"..."

"You keep talking."

"I accepted the commission from Boss Hex to protect you. How about it? Feel moved! Hahaha."

After a few awkward laughs, Mengren realized that everyone in the room was looking at him like he was mentally retarded.

"What...what's wrong? What's wrong?"

"nothing."

Chen Mo didn't want to attack the strong man.

In the tavern, according to the ranking of unarmed combat power, excluding the non-awakened Zheng Qiuhong, the fierce man is probably the last one.

"Bounty Hunter?"

Lao Bai moved a chair and sat over there.

"Haha, hello, uncle, I am a fierce man from Cote City, have you heard of me?"

"I've never heard of it." Lao Bai looked disdainful: "You're so skinny and small, you have the nerve to call yourself a tough guy?"

The fierce man is just over 1.8 meters tall. He is not as muscular as Chen Mo, but he definitely cannot be called skinny.

"..."

"Did you save Xiao Mo?"

"yes."

Lao Bai threw out a small box, and Mengren reached out to catch it.

"This is?"

"Aren't you also a person with superpowers? I gave it to you."

"What?"

"10g high purity yridium."

"I'll blanch it! Thank you, uncle!"

"Don't call me uncle, just call me Lao Bai or boss." Lao Bai stood up and threw a rag to the fierce man: "Go and wipe the table."

"???"

"Now that you're here with me, just work as a laborer for a few days."

"Why?" The fierce man was angry.

"If I guess correctly, you will get nosebleeds every time you use your powers, right?"

Lao Bai looked at the fierce man with a half-smile.

"yes."

"Do you want to make your own abilities stronger?"

The fierce man looked disgusted: "The non-growth of superpowers is an iron law. How can you violate the laws of nature?"

"Laws are man-made. Since they are man-made, there are errors." Lao Bai's right eye pupil turned purple: "When I first awakened my powers, I was not even at level one. Now I am a level two power user.

"

The fierce man stood in awe.

"I dare to ask the old gentleman who he is!"

"I'm godfather." Chen Mo held his forehead.



At night, the old man and the fierce man lived in the same house, and Chen Mo and Zheng Qiuhong lived in the same house.

Zheng Qiuhong was still worried about yesterday's dead body, so he silently walked into Chen Mo's arms.

For some reason, it was extremely difficult for Chen Mo to fall asleep since he was infused with energy. Now, smelling the unique body fragrance of the girl in his arms, it made him even more sleepy.

The girl felt particularly at ease next to Chen Mo.

In her mind, the wall of blood and brain matter gradually solidified into thick shoulders in front of her.

After whispering something softly, the girl fell into a deep sleep.

Chen Mo kept his eyes open and stayed awake all night.



Liu Liang's case was completely closed.

Looking at the pile of materials, Lu Diping pressed the ballpoint pen.

These things alone cannot have a decisive impact on Kurt's cancer, and if they are overwhelming, they will cause some trouble.

As long as ac is thrown out as a discarded child and killed, ac understands the wrong spirit of the directive, the cancer can still stay out of the matter, and can even bite back at Lu Diping through the incident in District H, saying that his lack of supervision caused such a situation.

The best outcome would be for him, the director of the Law Enforcement Agency, to trade with AC Limit.

Not a good deal.

Lu Diping sighed heavily and glanced at the Chen Mo information given to him by the supervisor.

It is not difficult for Director Lu to find out Chen Mo's true identity.

An energy uprising descends upon college students on the run.

A bounty hunter with a headhunting network success rate of 100%.

He must be a radical.

Lu Diping slowly put down the pen in his hand.

Look at the secretary next to you.

"Get Inspector Zhai for me."
