He was even ready to arouse Luo Hongyun's dislike, but in fact it was just the opposite. Instead of losing his favorability, it increased by ten points in one breath.
"Hey~, forget it, lie down first."
The physical pain made him unable to concentrate, so he stopped thinking and entered 201 in the building he rented.
He had been staying in a hotel a few days ago, and it was easy to change places. He signed a contract with the landlord overnight last night, bought a new bedding and lived here directly. Otherwise, he would not have come so early today.
The room has one bedroom, one living room, one bathroom, and a small kitchen. Although it looks a bit shabby from the outside, it's actually pretty good inside. The only bad thing is that there is no furniture and it is empty.
Not sure whether it was because he was tired or because he felt more at ease here, Xia Xu fell into a deep sleep not long after lying on the bed.
Adding yesterday to now, this was probably the two times he had the most solid sleep in recent days.
Living next to Zhang Jianmin before was not very reliable to be honest. At most it was a psychological comfort. After all, this is a real world. How can any monster only move within a fixed range because it cannot 'break in'.
Although I haven't been able to convince Luo Hongyun to become a personal bodyguard, I still have a big boss who I can call on for help. At least I don't have to worry so much about being killed by the monsters in The Hunter when I'm at home, and I can sleep with peace of mind.
…
After sleeping in a hazy state until noon, Xia Xu had some lunch and then started wandering around the city to do some shopping.
Now that he had money and time, he decided to purchase some equipment to arm himself. Regardless of whether it was useful or not, it was just for peace of mind.
Anti-stab clothing, compound bow, anti-wolf spray, portable stun device, dagger made of Damascus, open-edge manganese steel Damiao knife that is a legal collectible in Longquan Town.
After visiting many stores selling sporting goods, hardware, and collectibles, Xia Xu spent most of the day and finally put together a set of legal luxury equipment.
The most eye-catching one is naturally the manganese steel Da Miao sword. This thing is similar to a Tang sword or a samurai sword, but it is much longer than both. The total length is 1.6 meters, which is taller than some short people.
Because it is made of manganese steel, the Miao knife is extremely tough and sharp. In the hands of someone who knows how to use it, it can shatter a man or a horse with one blow.
Of course...if you put it in the hands of someone who doesn't know how to use it, there's a high chance that you'll cut off your own legs first.
And it's not easy to carry around. Xia Xu just bought it because he thought it looked very lethal in actual combat and he didn't lack money. It seems that he can only keep it at home as a collection for the time being.
Except for the Miao Dao, the rest are all good things he carefully selected. The compound bow can be said to be a rare long-range weapon that can be legally held in the Xia Kingdom. You can practice it even if you don't use it temporarily.
Not to mention anti-wolf spray and stun guns, these are excellent means of self-protection when facing opponents with disparity in strength. The Damascus dagger is also an excellent cold weapon that can be carried with you.
Stab-proof clothing can be worn directly under school uniforms and outerwear. It is stab-proof and knife-proof. Compared with offensive equipment such as stun guns, it is a real life-saving weapon. It is a pity that there is no full-body style, which can only protect the upper body.
.
"Huh, although it's not very breathable, I feel more at ease at last."
After successfully arming himself, the conscientious Xia Xu finally breathed a sigh of relief.
After completing the purchase, Xia Xu threw the compound bow and Miao knife, which were not easy to carry, back into the rental house. He took all the other bits and pieces such as stun guns and anti-wolf spray with him, and called a car to go to Golden Sun KTV.
One of the reasons why I went there was to pick up the clothes I had left in the hotel these days, and the other reason was to take a look at Zhang Jianmin.
The plot of picking up leaks has passed or it has collapsed because of his involvement. Logically speaking, we should be able to see the next plot from him.
However, Xia Xu did not see Zhang Jianmin after arriving at Golden Sun KTV. Xia Xu could only call Yang Bowen.
"Boss, he is at this travel agency near the last construction site. It seems that he has had enough of his time and is planning to sign up for a tour group to go out and have some fun."
Fortunately, Yang Bowen is relatively reliable and is still keeping an eye on Zhang Jianmin faithfully today.
"As soon as Qian Chenghe was arrested, he wanted to sign up for a trip. It seems that the plot may have a certain degree of inertia. At least the plot that can continue will continue..."
Xia Xu made some guesses.
But this is just a guess, because Zhang Jianmin may have wanted to travel on the spur of the moment by his supervisor, which is why he came to Golden Sun KTV to have a good time and have a good time.
When Xia Xu came to the travel agency near the construction site, she met Yang Bowen and his "old friend" Zhang Jianmin.
Zhang Jianmin's complexion didn't look good, with heavy dark circles and bags under his eyes, and he clearly looked like he had a weak kidney. He was obviously exhausted by these days of "liquing and drinking".
["The Dying Man": ... sent Qian Chenghe to the police station, and asked Lin Zhengping to get rid of Angong Niuhuang Pills. Zhang Jianmin rested at home for two days, and went to Tibet with the tour group, preparing to go to the Tibetan area.
A journey that cleanses the soul.
But while repairing along the way, he had a conflict with the tour guide because he was dissatisfied with the tour group's forced accommodation and shopping arrangements. In the end, he was abandoned when he got off the car to smoke during the repair. Fortunately, he met Lao Xu, who was also driving to Tibet...]
"It seems that there is no need to follow this plot line for the time being..."
Xia Xu, who saw the introduction of the new dying man plot as expected, shook his head.
Looking at this plot introduction, it should be just a funny or sublimated plot, probably similar to the classic "Journey to the Road" series.
There is no need to worry about whether it is specific. In short, it is impossible for him to go to Tibet with Zhang Jianmin.
If you don't have that time, you won't be able to make it. The main plot of the dying man is comedy rather than making money. This trip to Tibet may not necessarily have any plot points that can benefit him.
However, he doesn't intend to give up completely. After all, he made two pots of gold in it. Maybe there will be another opportunity when Zhang Jianmin comes back. At least in terms of making money, it will definitely be more reliable than "Hunter" and "Night Owl".
One million may seem like a lot, but in actual use it is of little use. Renting a house and buying equipment will cost tens of thousands more.
If you later want to hire Luo Hongyun as a bodyguard, you will definitely need a high salary. The same is true for Yang Bowen. He will not be able to survive for long, let alone if he wants to really open a company, a start-up capital of one million may not be enough.
"Lao Yang, is there any way for you to get the news as soon as Zhang Jianmin comes back?"
Xia Xu, who was too lazy to waste his time thinking about how to locate Zhang Jianmin's whereabouts, decided to seek the advice of 'professionals'.
Yang Bowen scratched his head and quickly hesitated: "How about... I wait until he leaves and then make a phone call to fool him? Just say that he wants to discuss business or something, and let him take the initiative to call me when he comes back?"
"Hey, you really have a lot of clever ideas. You are indeed a top detective talent."
Xia Xu was delighted and gave him a thumbs up.
Yang Bowen's proposal is indeed very convenient and trouble-free. The only flaw is that the reasons need to be changed.
When a person is about to die, he is not in the mood to talk about business. The hospital wants to talk to him about his condition, the lawyer wants to talk to him about his will, and the police station wants to talk to him about his last gambling incident. These are the best reasons.
However, I have someone who is easy to handle, so I can just leave this small matter to Yang Bowen. He just made a few corrections.
