Chapter 165 Good and bad news (first update to congratulate Meng Jiulong Division)
Qu Jianlei's first reaction was that something happened at the Inspectorate.
If the matter is so serious that I, the nominal consultant, have to come forward, I am afraid that the peace of life will be broken again.
However, what he never imagined was that Xiao Qin spoke with a heavy expression, "A fierce battle broke out in Houjing, Tianzi District."
The incident happened eight days ago, and the place where the fighting took place was the courtyard where Qu Jianlei had previously rented.
The battle broke out at night, not to mention lightning and thunder, but also the sound of machine guns and cannons, and the sound of explosions came one after another.
The commotion was so great that the patrol team of the city guard did not even dare to arrive at the scene immediately.
If the battle takes place in the city, everyone can go there if they don't want to, but in the suburbs... it's not that important.
When the city also realized that something was wrong, a large force was sent for support. Everyone gathered together and rushed to the scene.
At this time, about fifteen minutes had passed since the battle started.
The small courtyard has been razed to the ground, and the surrounding residents who are relatively close have been affected.
There were no living people in the ruins. There were two dead people whose faces could not be seen clearly, and they had been blown into a pile of rotten flesh.
The residents inside, Terry and Huang Xiezi, also disappeared.
Many people in the city guard knew that Terry was the ultimate warrior, and they immediately reported the situation.
The battle took place on the outskirts of the city. This was not only a malicious attack on the Ultimate Warrior, but also a slap in Houjing's face.
However, the first person to spread the news to Central City was Taidu City Daijia.
Dai Xingyan knew that Jian Lei had become a resident of Central City and a temporary consultant at the Inspection Office, so she deliberately maintained her relationship with the two men.
If such a big thing happens, what if we are not notified immediately? What if we are angered?
She herself stayed in the ruins for two days and two nights.
After the city guards withdrew, she led others to rummage through the ruins for three days, trying to find any clues.
The latest news is that she found a woman's shoe stained with blood. Judging from the size, it was probably a "Yellow Scorpion" shoe.
Jamali was originally out on business, but after receiving the news, he hurried back and took people to Tianzi District in person.
However, Xiao Qin and Ma Long were deliberately left behind. The inspector general was worried that Jian Lei would go crazy after getting the news, so he arranged for two familiar ones.
Qu Jianlei's hands were tightly clenched together, but there was no expression on his face.
He was silent for half a minute before he managed to say, "Any clues?"
Seeing his calm face, Xiao Qin felt a little excited for a moment, "Boss... the inspector general is investigating!"
Qu Jianlei glanced at Ma Long and asked calmly, "Is there any smoke?"
"I'll buy it," Ma Long stood up and walked out of the courtyard door.
Half a minute later, he came back with half a pack of cigarettes in his hand, "I borrowed half a pack first, and I'm going to buy it now."
Qu Jianlei remained silent. After smoking three cigarettes in a row, he spoke in a deep voice, "Who can contact Zhouzi District the fastest?"
"I can," Ma Long said proactively, "Don't you remember? I know that frost wolves are a specialty of Zouzi District."
Qu Jianlei lit another cigarette but did not smoke it. Staring at the rising green smoke, he spoke slowly.
"There is a mother and daughter in the Zhouliu settlement. I would like to ask you to help find out if they are okay..."
After getting the information about Cindy and Claire, Malone was about to get up and leave.
But when he looked at the expressionless Qu Jianlei and then at Xiao Qin, his heart trembled slightly.
He had a very strong feeling: once Jian Lei became angry, Xiao Qin would never be able to control him.
So he directly turned on his watch to call, and the person he ordered was not an outsider.
"Black Panther, I have something to do here. It was arranged by Master Jian Lei. He takes it very seriously..."
Then, the room fell into a deathly silence.
At this moment, Cindy and Claire were living outside the city again - their house was confiscated.
The cause of the incident was still the Sai family. After the Sai family's convoy was attacked, new people were sent.
The new arrivals still found the records of Cindy and Claire's status and move out of the Zhousan settlement.
So they searched extensively in Zhouliu and finally found the two of them.
According to the Sai family's style of doing things, I wanted to capture the mother and daughter at that time.
However, this is the Zhouzi District after all, and its level is higher than that of the Hongzi District. The Zhouliu settlement is not used to their problems.
In particular, a guard in the settlement was accidentally killed because of the Sai family.
The Sai family invited people from the main settlement to speak out, but it was no use. The top officials of Zhouliu just refused to let go.
Moreover, Cindy and Claire's identities are clear and can withstand investigation. They are indeed natives of Zouzi District.
The two of them met the two attackers by chance, and they did not participate in the battle that affected Zhou Liu, so they had to be saved.
The people of the Sai family just wanted to express their resentment, and finally gave up after pleading to no avail.
However, after the Sai family left, the mother and daughter were targeted again by Zhou Liu's people.
They were protected in the settlement to save face, and it was an undeniable fact that their two companions killed the guards.
So they were angered and the house was repossessed. Finally, they were fine and half of the house payment was refunded.
Then, they were stripped of their resident status and forcibly kicked out of the settlement.
Fortunately, Qu Jianlei left a sum of money for them before leaving, and Cindy had also found a job in the city before.
Now the mother and daughter live outside the city and work odd jobs every day to make money.
Some people know that they are related to the murderer, and they still have a hostile attitude towards them.
Fortunately, Zhouliu is a place with "rules", and no one heard the news about the arrest of the man and the woman.
Therefore, the mother and daughter lived a difficult life, but they did not suffer much.
The only thing that makes people anxious is that the income cannot cover the expenses, and it feels really bad to sit back and have nothing.
On this day, Cindy discussed with her daughter, "There is a motorcade that is willing to take us together. How about we change our settlement?"
"I'm not leaving," Claire said very simply. "If we leave, how will the boss and second sister find us when they come back?"
She has never complained about Qu Jianlei and Hua Xiezi. That kind of life is what she yearns for.
Cindy sighed helplessly, "If we don't leave, we won't even be able to raise the fare."
"Then buy a gun and go hunting," Claire said heartily, "I would rather die under the claws of wild beasts."
Cindy couldn't help but shed tears.
At this moment, there was a commotion outside the door, and three or four people walked in. Looking at their clothes and style, they knew they were from the city.
The leader was a middle-aged, slightly fat man, who suddenly let out a sigh of relief and said, "So you two are still here..."
He had inquired along the way and knew that Cindy had repeatedly expressed that she wanted to move away recently and was currently looking for a ride-along.
When Cindy heard this, she immediately put away her tears and said calmly, "You don't need to chase me away, I've already contacted the car."
"Hey, no," the middle-aged man almost broke down in sweat upon hearing this.
"There are some misunderstandings here... Our previous operations may have been a bit simple and crude."
He had to admit his mistake because a big shot whom he usually had no contact with spoke up.
"If anything happens to the mother and daughter, I suggest you commit suicide immediately, so that you can save yourself from having a peaceful death."
In Zhou Liu's hunting area, the ultimate warrior occasionally appeared. He asked tremblingly, "Is it the ultimate warrior?"
The big shot wasn't angry either - this matter was too important and must be explained clearly.
"The ultimate warrior? Haha, even the ultimate warrior has to tremble!"
When the middle-aged and slightly chubby man heard this, he was so scared that he didn't scare him half to death and directly led the team over in person.
Now that he saw that these two women were leaving, how could he agree?
But Cindy felt that if she insisted on leaving at this time, Claire might agree to follow her out of hatred for Zhou Liu.
She really knows her daughter's temper very well.
How dare a middle-aged and slightly chubby girl just let her go like this? She offered all kinds of favorable conditions.
The repossessed house was returned free of charge, and the mother and daughter's resident status was no longer a problem. They were also promised a job with a leisurely and high salary.
In the end, he even offered generous compensation for mental damages, exchanged a small room for a villa, and... let Claire go to school.
The last one completely impressed Cindy, so she agreed to stay.
But she didn't want the villa. She couldn't afford it, and she didn't want her daughter to develop bad habits.
Claire had a grimace on her face, "Go to school... I really don't want to go to school."
The middle-aged man chatted with her for a while and said decisively, "I can let you go to a hunter school."
Claire was overjoyed when she heard this, but Cindy slapped her forehead in distress and sighed, "I still can't escape."
After everything was settled, the middle-aged and slightly fat man couldn't help but ask, "Who are the big shots do you know?"
Claire replied proudly, "My boss and second sister are both very powerful, especially the boss."
The middle-aged man rolled his eyes when he heard this and said to himself, I have never heard of a fugitive being so capable.
Cindy was much more stable in her work. She said calmly that her late husband had worked in the city guard before and might have been in contact with some noble people.
The middle-aged, fat man thinks this answer is unreliable, but...it is theoretically possible.
Anyway, he made up his mind to provide for the mother and daughter from now on.
How could he dare to be disrespectful to a being that even the ultimate warrior could not offend?
It was three days before Qu Jianlei learned the news about Cindy's mother and daughter.
During these three days, he had been meditating silently, and his breath was constantly fluctuating.
This is related to the fact that he just broke through, but the main reason is that his mood swings are too severe.
Ma Long and Xiao Qin didn't dare to leave, for fear that he would lose his mind and do something crazy.
Sensing the smell in the room, Ma Long couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "Xiao Qin, do you think it's... B-level?"
Xiao Qin shook his head and replied in a low voice, "I'm really not familiar with this. It's a pity that the boss is not here, otherwise he can judge."
Three days later, Black Panther came to report in person, told what he had learned, and said he would continue to pay attention.
After hearing that Cindy and Claire were fine, Qu Jianlei finally walked out of the room.
He looked haggard and whispered, "Thank you, Black Panther."

Chapter 166 Jamali takes action (Second update He Meng Lord Black Sky Vest)
Qu Jianlei left the room and treated everyone to a big meal first to thank them for their hard work during the past three days.
But that said, there was no smile on his face, and everyone could see it.
After eating and drinking, he asked the three of them to leave, saying that he was fine.
Forget it about Ma Long, he is not good at escorting, but Xiao Qin firmly refuses to agree. She has seen Qu Jianlei when he was crazy.
Finally, she said, "The boss cares about you very, very much. I am here and can deliver the boss's new clues as soon as possible."
Qu Jianlei couldn't defeat her and arranged a room for her to stay temporarily.
However, Xiao Qin was really upset and fell asleep that night.
Xiao Moshan finally arrived, "You're late, Jian Lei...is he the Terry from last time?"
"Yes," Qu Jianlei nodded silently, thinking that the three of them had cooperated to kill the Frost Wolf in an instant, and felt endless sadness in his heart.
"I have just started practicing cultivation recently," Xiao Moshan said straightforwardly, "I can help you, but I can't do it in vain."
"Don't worry," Qu Jianlei was not angry. On the contrary, he actually appreciated the other party's attitude.
A favor is a favor, and a transaction is a transaction.
The last time the other party helped kill the Frost Wolf, he didn't ask for any conditions; this time, it was normal for him to ask for conditions.
Once you owe too much favor, it will not be a good experience for either the giver or the recipient.
There really shouldn’t be too many examples of how rice is promoted and rice is grudged against rice.
He said calmly, "The state has been adjusted. I will be busy with other things recently."
Xiao Moshan looked at him with a slightly strange look, "Aren't you going to go to Tianzi District to look for it?"
Qu Jianlei drooped his eyelids and did not see the other party's expression.
He said calmly, "It's not necessary. Jamali has already gone. How can I be as capable as a Dizifang?"
He was angry, but he didn't let it go to his head. There was no need for his help when the people from Dizifang came forward.
He hasn't fully understood the various regions and forces in Tianzi District. If he goes back to look for people... wouldn't that cause chaos?
It wasn't until he raised his eyelids and noticed a trace of disdain in the other person's eyes that he realized... I'm a little cold-blooded?
However, he did not intend to change, and just explained, "My two companions really want to hide, and even I can't find them."
Flower Scorpion has extensive experience in surviving in the wild, while Bentley has been wanted for more than seventy years and has not returned.
These two people are together, it is too difficult for others to find them.
Xiao Moshan's eyes softened a little, but he still asked, "What if they are captured?"
Qu Jianlei was silent for four or five seconds and answered slowly, "In that case, if I were present, I would be the best blackmail target."
He doesn't accept blackmail, but no matter what, as long as he is present, the other party will definitely be more lucky.
But in good conscience, he really didn't believe that the other party could capture Bentley and Hua Scorpion alive.
Although Hua Scorpion was afraid of death, he definitely had the courage to commit suicide, otherwise he wouldn't have risked his life waiting for him and walked through the Endless Mountains together.
As for Bentley? He is simply a tough gangster. He was able to obtain so many crystals during his wanted period. Needless to say, his style of conduct goes without saying.
And do you really think the traps he set up in the Houjing courtyard are so easy to break into?
Xiao Moshan had some contempt at first, but he couldn't help but nodded when he heard this, "You finally understand."
But after a pause, he asked again, "What if the person is really gone?"
Qu Jianlei was stunned for a moment, then lowered his eyelids and replied casually, "Then...find the murderer."
His words were dull, but Xiao Moshan's eyes flickered, as if he saw endless blood.
After pondering for a moment, he asked aloud, "Are you... B-level now?"
"I don't know," Qu Jianlei replied nonchalantly, "By the way, do you have spell templates for each attribute?"
"Yes," Xiao Moshan replied without hesitation, "Which attribute do you want?"
I'm going to kill him. Qu Jianlei raised his eyelids and looked at him again, "I want it...you were very well prepared when you defected."
"I..." Xiao Moshan's mouth moved, and finally he smiled bitterly, "I want to say that I really have never thought about defecting. Do you believe it?"
"I believe it," Qu Jianlei nodded casually, "At this time, there is no need for you to lie to me."
"You..." Xiao Moshan was a little speechless, "How old are you? With your IQ and reaction, you can't be a local aborigine."
Qu Jianlei didn't answer, and said to himself that my consciousness came from Blue Star. As for the body of my predecessor, who knows where it came from.
Xiao Moshan was a little curious, "I heard that warriors without attributes can practice various spells?"
"I've never come across it," Qu Jianlei replied lightly, "Now I just want to figure out the corresponding technique."
Xiao Moshan's mouth suddenly opened wide, and it took him a long time to sigh, "I admire you!"
Three days later, Jamali came back and paid a special visit to Qu Jianlei.
He said that Dizifang had searched the Tianzi area upside down and could not find any clues about either side of the battle.
However, someone did something good that night and saw the fight between the two sides.
The fighting that night actually affected many surrounding residents, with double-digit casualties.
But there are really people who dare to risk their lives to eat melons. After all, things like gossip are really human nature.
Some people said that there were survivors from both parties, but they ran away separately because they were worried about the intervention of the city guard.
In the battle between the ultimate warriors, will you worry about the intervention of the city guard?
The answer is: Yes! It really does!
The strength of the city guards is definitely much different, but with mechas, the gap will be much narrower.
Especially since they are in the Tianzi District, there are not only many mechas here, but also many modified warriors and the occasional ultimate warrior.
The fighting took place around the city and resulted in casualties among local people. The nature of the fighting was not ordinary.
The settlement area is not qualified to deal with the ultimate warrior, but if he is killed on the spot, he is killed, and Central City will not care.
Even if you were captured, it wouldn't look good, not to mention it would be humiliating, and you would have to accept punishment when you return to Central City.
Therefore, it is completely normal for both parties to tacitly keep silent.
Both parties ran away, which was good news for Qu Jianlei.
But he was a little puzzled, "You check flights...well, you can check travel records, don't you have this qualification?"
"Many people have dual or even multiple identities," Jamali is very clear about this, even a little helpless.
"This problem is really not something that my little inspector general can solve. In addition to the Thirty-sixth Family, there are also canyons!"
Qu Jianlei thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case, "Then do you have anyone to suspect?"
Jamali really had a suspicion, but...he didn't dare to say it.
In these days, he has checked all possible suspects because he must pay attention to this matter.
In addition to Terry, who is the only one who knows how to practice electromagnetic properties, it also involves Jian Barrier, who can change the pattern of practice!
If any one of these two situations occurs, he will pursue it, let alone two?
Then, a person riding an aircraft came into his eyes. He was an ultimate warrior under the Douglas family.
The Ultimate Warrior goes to the settlement below, often using false identities.
This situation is normal. Central City does not encourage the ultimate warrior to go to the settlement area casually - no matter if he is killed.
But it was absolutely impossible not to go, so various false identities emerged.
This situation is really not something that the Inspectorate can stop - even if it can stop the Ultimate Warrior, can it stop the people in the canyon?
It's hard to get back, that's what it's like.
Bentley was able to travel freely to Central City because he took advantage of this loophole.
Jamali looks simple and honest, but he is really shrewd. Otherwise, where else would he be the inspector general?
The ultimate warrior of the Douglas family...why does he appear in Tianzi District using a pseudonym?
He thought of the answer almost instantly, and felt a chill in his heart.
However, it was his own mistake. How could he dare to tell Jian Lei?
It's just that he felt cruel in his heart... The Douglas family, right? What a bold dog, we'll see.
Faced with Jian Lei's question, he could only say, "You also know the importance I attach to Terry, and I will get to the bottom of this matter."
Qu Jianlei thought about it and asked again, "My two companions...did they leave any valuables at the scene?"
Jamali hesitated and replied, "Yes, I killed some people for this."
That night, after the city guard brigade arrived, in addition to looking for clues, they also searched for property.
They handed over some firearms, ammunition, food, etc. as an explanation to Houjingcheng.
But some other energy blocks, such as gold, silver notes and silver dollars, were divided up privately.
After Jamali arrived with the people from Dizifang, those people did not dare to say that they had hidden the property.
However, many people have witnessed this kind of thing, and some people have benefited more. Naturally, some people will feel unbalanced.
Jamali rose from a soldier to an inspector general and has been working in the field for many years, so he knows what is going on underneath.
He exerted heavy pressure on the city guards and even claimed that if anyone was dishonest, he would be implicated once found out.
In this case, some people who received a small share finally couldn't bear the pressure and secretly turned themselves in behind others' backs, and at the same time actively reported the case.
Needless to say, what happened next was that Jamali really killed many people and seized his family property.
Finally, they traced it to a high-ranking person in Houjing, who had received the benefits of a B-level crystal from the City Guards.
The high-level officials still killed the whole family, and Jamali fully demonstrated the coldness and bloodiness of the Central City Inspectorate.
Even other senior executives were held accountable and punished a lot for this.
He was so ruthless that when someone filed a lawsuit in Central City, they didn't even say that Houjing was wronged, but just asked you to let the security team come.
Jamali explained to Jian Lei for a long time, thinking that if something happened to the Douglas family in the future, the other party would forgive him.
However, that was not what Qu Jianlei was concerned about. He frowned and asked, "How many B-grade crystals have been found in total?"
(Second update, He Meng masters "Black Sky Vest".)
