Chapter 806 Bloody Millstone

Qu Jianlei learned about Youyou's inner knot, but there was nothing he could do about it. He was not good at persuading others.

Then we can only wait until Xiao Moshan comes back and ask him to persuade him - after all, the two of them are in the same boat.

However, two days later, Youyou took the initiative to come over, hoping that he could help inquire about family information.

She said she didn't need to contact her family, she just wanted to know their situation.

For this kind of thing, it would be more appropriate for her to ask the old lady or Xiangxue, but she was not familiar with them, and Xiao Moshan was not around.

And Youyou's family is not in the Hope Star Territory. She is a soldier garrisoning in a foreign place.

"Don't worry, I will arrange it," Qu Jianlei could only persuade her.

Then he remembered something, "I do know the whereabouts of the Fourth Master. Are you interested in meeting him again?"

"Fourth Leader?" Youyou was shocked when she heard this, "He escaped from Zarif?"

After receiving a positive reply, she pondered for a moment before saying, "If it's convenient, let's meet."

The Fourth Master had a crush on him at first, and she knew this very well.

It's not like she has no feelings for him, but it's not like they'll be together for a lifetime.

It was just that in an emergency period, two people with the same disease joined together to keep warm. She believed that the Fourth Master thought the same way.

After all, the two men were both from the military and both had "wanted" labels.

And it’s been another ten years, and who can be sure about their feelings for each other?

Qu Jianlei didn't know her specific mood. Seeing that she wasn't very enthusiastic, he thought about it and asked.

"Do you think you haven't fully recovered, or is it because of the injury on your face?"

Youyou pondered for a moment and shook her head, "No, just meet me if you can. After all, you have helped me a lot."

After she left Zarif Planet, the Fourth Master's care actually made her suffer some criticism, but it didn't matter.

"Okay," Qu Jianlei nodded, "I'll make arrangements."

He didn't quite understand what she was thinking, but the reunion of old friends would probably wash away some of her longing for her family.

Another seven or eight days passed. On this day, Mrs. Jia came to Qu Jianlei and asked, "Do you want to change your starship to another one?"

"That's okay," Qu Jianlei nodded simply, grabbing the starship from the Qingfeng Chamber of Commerce would only help him land normally.

The origin of this starship cannot withstand careful investigation. After all, it was involved in the disappearance of the caravan.

If the investigation continues, his identity may be revealed.

"It's just that if you want to trade it out, this starship should be completely refitted...it doesn't come from the right place."

The old lady was not surprised at all by his answer. How many people live by the rules in space?

She nodded and replied calmly, "Okay, about which planet do you plan to receive the new starship?"

Qu Jianlei was startled for a moment, then realized the smell, "Is the manor not safe?"

"A little bit," Mrs. Jia nodded slightly. If there were no problems, she would not want to interrupt this smooth practice.

Qu Jianlei frowned, "What else do we need to do?"

"No need to do anything," the old lady still had a calm expression on her face, "Just leave for now."

After a pause, she said in a deep voice, "You can keep that senior here and cooperate with me."

Qu Jianlei couldn't help but glance at her sideways, "Aren't you going to leave?"

"I have to stay and deal with them for a while," Mrs. Jia replied lightly, "but don't worry, it'll be fine."

Otherwise, it would be nice to have a companion who can take care of things, but she was not interested in going into details.

Qu Jianlei was not pretentious, "Then if we leave now, will we have time to clear our breath?"

Mrs. Jia answered casually, "It's too late to leave at night. Leave the matter of clearing the breath to me."

However, she said it easily, but Qu Jianlei would not take it lightly, "Then I will inform them."

An hour later, everyone was called out, and the four sets of formations and calculation units were also put away by Qu Jianlei.

Fortunately, no one was surprised, they were very cooperative and responded quickly.

Although everyone didn't say anything, they also understood that after rescuing Xiao Moshan and Youyou, the peaceful days might not last long.

But no one showed any emotion about this. These two were also former comrades-in-arms.

That night, everyone quietly left the manor, leaving only Mrs. Jia and Paranoid.

The next day, a group of people boarded the starship heading to Star 4, using false identities without any problems.

After landing, everyone found that the inspection of No. 4 Star became more and more lax, and even the words "Shenwenhui" were not heard from anyone.

However, without Mrs. Jia accompanying us, everyone still felt a little uncomfortable, and it was not easy to even find a suitable place to live.

Although Qu Jianlei stayed at Star 4 for more than a semester, he was not very familiar with other things outside the engineering school.

In the end, everyone found a bed and breakfast to stay. Previously, their identities were not checked, but now the owner still checked them.

The conditions of the B&B are not bad, the equipment and facilities are advanced, and the surrounding environment is good. There are a few residents, but it is in good order.

However, there is no way to practice here, and Hua Xiezi and Claire, who are determined to advance to the next level, seem a little disappointed.

After resting for the night, the girls went out as a group to play, while Qu Jianlei and Bentley went out in the evening.

The two came to the "Adventurer's House".

Ben knew that the boss was asking him to follow him, and he probably had something to do, but after looking at the drink list, he was still a little surprised.

"The consumption here is not much worse than that of Elf House, right?"

"Just order something to drink," Qu Jianlei casually ordered, "Don't make it too expensive."

After the drinks were served, he asked for three more cups and made a strange shape with the cups.

There are a lot of people doing nothing in the bar, so it's normal for them to do weirder things, and no one will care.

However, after a while, a gorgeous woman came over and sat down, smiling and saying, "Are you two waiting for someone?"

The woman's makeup is very thick, but from her eyes, she can tell that she must be in her early fifties.

Calculated to the age of a Blue Star person, this is equivalent to someone in their thirties, which is not considered young, but it is normal for someone who works in a bar.

Bentley didn't respond at all, just like he didn't hear anything. Qu Jianlei rubbed three wine glasses, took out a cigarette and lit it.

The woman did not feel embarrassed, "It seems we have business to discuss... Do you want some port wine?"

"I want Black Jazz," Qu Jianlei replied casually, "I want to get some top-notch information."

The woman looked at him indifferently, stood up and left, and not long after, a middle-aged man with an unattractive appearance came.

The man held a glass of wine in his hand and sat down casually, "Top information is not cheap...Which line did you take?"

"Bloody Millstone," Qu Jianlei replied dully, "Is she here?"

Bloody Millstone is the codename of Camille, the top killer of Scavenger on Planet 4.

"She's not here," the man looked at him in surprise and spoke in a deep voice, "You can contact me for top-level information... What do you want to ask?"

This attitude is not surprising. The Scavengers are an organization that only cares about money. They dare to sell anything except internal information of the organization.

"There is an organization called the Living Dead," Qu Jianlei said in a deep voice, "I want to know their high-level information."

"The living dead..." The middle-aged man pondered for a moment, took a sip of the wine in his glass, and asked softly, "Why them?"

"Huh?" Qu Jianlei frowned slightly and spoke displeasedly, "You are so bad at rules... was it because of Camili's instructions?"

When the middle-aged man saw that the other party even called out the name of the bloody millstone, his brows suddenly raised, "I'm sorry, I was wrong."

"But the living dead have cooperated with us recently, so I have the temerity to ask."

"Does the scavenger care about this?" Qu Jianlei smiled disdainfully, "Tell me, how much does it cost?"

The middle-aged man replied in a deep voice, "The average senior management has a total of fifty, and the two presidents need a hundred."

"It's really not cheap," Qu Jianlei tapped his fingers on the table twice, "How long will it take to get accurate information?"

"Money first, goods later," the middle-aged man replied sternly, "We don't want to default."

Qu Jianlei flipped his wrist, and a small box appeared in his hand, and he spoke calmly.

"I want all the information. Here is one hundred...the remaining fifty will be paid upon delivery."

Money first and goods later are all excuses to deceive the weak. In the past, he got the compensation from the scavengers.

When the middle-aged man saw the box that appeared out of thin air, he was slightly startled: Talisman for holding things?

The other party has an A-level cultivation, so it is not uncommon to have a holding talisman.

But if you want to use it casually, the talisman will not only lose its durability, but will also attract the covetousness of others.

Planet No. 4 is the latest planet developed in the Hope Star Territory. Chaos is inevitable, not to mention that it is still in the home of adventurers.

Moreover, Scavenger's reputation is not that good, at least in terms of its treatment of money, it is notorious.

The other party obviously had quite a lot of confidence to show off like this.

Thinking of this, he looked at the other person carefully, then nodded, picked up the small box and left.

——The bar is crowded with people and not a good place to count money. Since the other party knows Camili, there should be a basis for cooperation.

Seeing him leaving, Bentley asked in a low voice, "Are the living dead... also opponents?"

How could I have so many enemies? Qu Jianlei shook his head in confusion, "Youyou has a friend... who is a high-level executive there."

"Friend..." Bentley nodded thoughtfully and stopped asking questions. His curiosity was not that strong.

About an hour later, the middle-aged man came back, bringing with him a man wearing a half-mask.

The man was dressed in flashy clothes, and at first glance he looked like a dandy looking for fun in a nightclub.

The middle-aged man whispered, "Okay, you two can talk and just give him the balance."

The handsome man in the mask looked Qu Jianlei up and down, took out a small memory, raised his hand and put it on the table, "Check the goods first?"

Qu Jianlei glanced at the memory, looked at the other party, and spoke with interest.

"Fourth Master, long time no see!"
