Chapter 39 Companion

At 9:05 a.m., in an alley diagonally opposite the Hunter Guild.

After Long Yuehong confirmed that no one was following him, she ran in carefully and said to Bai Chen who was hiding in the corner:

"You can go to the guild to take on tasks."

Bai Chen took off the beret on his head and the mask on his face, and pulled out the gray scarf:

"good."

She felt it was necessary to cooperate with the investigation, clear the suspicion, and let the guild remove the mission, otherwise, wave after wave of ruin hunters came to find her, which would be really annoying and would bring unnecessary danger.

The only thing she couldn't understand was why Long Yuehong insisted on doing reconnaissance first and then going to the hall, which was not a dragon's den.

But since the newcomer assigned by the company has this sense of caution, it is still worth encouraging.

Following Bai Chen out of the alley, Long Yuehong reminded:

"When someone is asked later, I will touch my pocket every minute."

Bai Chen said with a little amused:

"Do you really believe in that divine guy?"

The guy who rented a house opposite them clearly had Zhang Yingjun's face, but he looked like a lunatic.

But then again, if it weren't for the time I touched it later, Bai Chen would have believed that there was a small piece of paper-folded star in his pocket.

But even so, thinking about what that guy said and waited for someone to ask and touch it again. If he touched it, he would mean he was dreaming. Bai Chen was not so sure that there were really no small stars folded in paper.

She has also encountered and heard about some magical things, especially those involving awakened people.

It seems that I still believe in this matter in my subconscious mind... Bai Chen didn't think much about it, and before a few ruin hunters leaned over, he entered the guild hall first.

When she got inside, she was not so anxious. She looked up and looked up and showed the scrolling display on the big screen, synchronizing the content of the broadcast:

“Task: Finding suspects in the missing Eugene incident.

"Description: A man and a woman, a man is about 1.8 meters tall, wearing a navy blue down jacket and a baseball cap; a woman is about 1.7 meters tall, wearing a gray cotton jacket, and also wearing a baseball cap...

"Remuneration: As long as it can pass the review and confirm that it is valid, there will be a minimum of 10 or 500 or 500 or 1.

“Task level: c, 100 credit points.

“…”

Immediately afterwards, Bai Chen saw his own photo on the big screen:

"Task: Find the ruin hunter Bai Chen.

"Description: A woman, who used the name Qian Bai and Bai Feng, was involved in the disappearance of Eugene, was about 1.6 meters tall and had short hair. See the photo for details.

“Reward: Provide clues, each effective clue is 5 Aure, bring Bai Chen to the Guild or the City Defense Forces headquarters, 20 Aure.

"Task Level: e, 10 Credit Points."

He was indeed looking for me... Bai Chen looked around and noticed that a man wearing a dark black and thick tweed coat was looking at him.

She had seen this ruin hunter before, and just heard Long Yuehong mention his name and knew that he was the "high-level hunter" Odick.

Bai Chen withdrew his gaze indifferently, walked to a window in the circular platform area, and said calmly:

"I'll take on the task."

"Which task?" asked the female clerk at the window instinctively.

According to their work rules, you cannot directly let the hunters of the ruins you find to operate on the machine next to you. You must complete this service before you can make a reminder.

"Looking for the ruins hunter Bai Chen." Bai Chen did not say the weird feeling of his name at all.

"Okay, please give me the hunter badge." The clerk said with a smile.

She took the badge, brushed it for a while, and suddenly was stunned.

After a few seconds, she looked up slightly and looked outside through the glass:

"You are Bai Chen?"

The name of the hunter registered by Bai Chen is Qian Bai, but the real name provided by Eugene is.

"Yes." Bai Chen was quite calm, "take the opportunity to make a fortune."

The clerk realized it after a while:

“Then I will choose the task for you directly?

"Also, please wait here for a while, I'll report it."

Bai Chen said directly:

"It's better to let someone who can make decisions come over and let me cooperate with the investigation to meet my conditions."

Of course, the clerk could not agree to her directly, picked up the phone on the table and informed her.

Not long after, a tall and thin man came to the hall surrounded by several bodyguards and walked towards Bai Chen.

His hair is relatively sparse, but it is still black, with wrinkles growing on the corners of his eyes, mouth, and forehead. The most obvious feature is his larger nose.

"I am Choi Eun, the vice president of the guild." The tall and thin man nodded and introduced himself.

Then, he said quite politely:

"Ms. Bai Chen, don't be nervous. The city defense force is just asking you to assist in the investigation."

Bai Chen said to himself:

“I have two conditions:

"First, I'm not at ease with them. You know that there have been many places where there are no real murderers. I just want to call a few scapegoats and forcefully point out the murderer. Therefore, I only accept inquiries from the guild and cooperate with the investigation.

"Second, I still have a task that I haven't completed, and I still have to make money to survive. Time is very fast, please hurry up."

The purpose of the Hunter Guild has always been to serve hunters, facilitate hunters, and become a home for hunters in a sense. Regardless of whether this has been really been realized or not, at least in public, no senior guild executive dared to deny it, and Cui En was no exception.

In addition, the local Hunter Guild has a special relationship with the City Lord's Mansion, Bai Chen's request is easily met. Cui En pondered slightly and said with a smile:

"Can.

"Don't worry, as long as you haven't done it, will the guild watch you be wronged?"

Cui En said the following sentence loudly, allowing hunters around the ruins to hear it.

With the promise of the vice president in charge of hunter affairs, Bai Chen felt relieved and followed him to the second floor and entered a small room.

There is only a rectangular table here, with a backrest chair on each side.

Bai Chen sat down on the inside and subconsciously reached out and wanted to penetrate his pocket.

She forcibly controlled her impulse and said silently:

"I was really influenced by that divine guy..."

I still believe that a small piece of paper-folded star suddenly appears in my pocket.

She waited for a while, and Choi Eun came in with her bodyguard and said a little apologetically:

"The city defense force called back and said that it would not be possible to send someone to the afternoon.

"You can do your own business first and come back then, how about it?"

"Even if you are not afraid of me running away, I have to worry about other relics hunters harassing me. It's better to solve this matter as soon as possible." Bai Chen was quite persistent and open-minded.

Choi En thought for a moment:

"Then I'll communicate and try to be responsible for the people here."

In essence, there is no difference. Everyone is serving the city lord's mansion.

Bai Chen nodded and quietly waited.

About a quarter of an hour later, Choi Eun returned to this room and said with a smile:

"After coordination, we are looking for professional and trustworthy people to be responsible for subsequent inquiries and investigations."

After saying that, he introduced the man next to him:

"This is the 'high-level hunter' Odick, one of his nicknames is 'lie detector', and no lie can be hidden from him."

Odick, with black hair and blue eyes, nodded slightly, saying hello.

Seeing that the person who was asking had arrived, Bai Chen remembered Long Yuehong's advice and instinctively raised his hand and placed it on the edge of his pocket.

At this time, Choi En had already led the bodyguard out and closed the door.

Bai Chen took the opportunity to stuff his hand into his pocket.

The next second, her pupils dilated a little.

She touched a paper-folded item!

She really touched a paper-folded item in her pocket!

She confirmed before going out!

This shows... I am dreaming? Corresponding memories emerge, Bai Chen suddenly got rid of a slightly confused state and found that he was taking Long Yuehong out of the "Today" nightclub. Behind him, there seemed to be a vicious gaze from Eugene.

In a dream... Bai Chen's heart moved, and showed no abnormality. He replicated the scene in his memory and walked back to the building where the "Afu Gun Store" was located in silence.

Then, she entered her room, lay down on the upper bed of the high and low beds, and stared at the ceiling in pain.

In this way, she fell asleep at some point. When she woke up and finished her breakfast, Long Yuehong walked into the room and told her that the guild had a mission, and that a ruin hunter was looking for her and asked her to make some disguise when she went out.

During this process, Bai Chen deliberately omitted the scene where he was talking nonsense and prevented him from participating.

Dong, Dong, Dong... Suddenly, Bai Chen heard the sound of knocking on the door and woke up.

She found herself in the small room of the Hunter Guild.

Odick had sat opposite her at some point, put away his fingers knocking on the table, and said calmly:

“You are asleep.

"Did you be tangled with Eugene's affairs last night and tossing and turning and unable to sleep?"

"Yes, I want to kill him, but I don't have the ability, so I'm afraid of him so much that I tremble." Bai Chen said frankly.

She has a clear conscience.

Odick looked at her for a few seconds, nodded slightly and said:

"You're not lying."

He asked a few more questions, and all of them were answered without any concealment.

Bai Chen even took off his scarf and asked him to look at the tattoo of the female slave on his neck.

This made Bai Chen feel a little strange because she usually doesn't want others to see this, and she did it very naturally today.

Her explanation for this is to get rid of suspicion as soon as possible.

"I can understand your pain and fear." Odick said nonsense, then stood up and said, "You can leave."

"So fast?" Bai Chen was quite surprised.

Odick simply responded:

"Because you didn't lie."

Bai Chen didn't understand the truth, so he stood up and left the room.

Back in the first floor lobby, she received 20 Aure banknotes and 10 credit points, and joined Long Yuehong, who was also a "novice hunter", walked out of the guild hall and turned to the central square.

On the way, Bai Chen met the divine guy living opposite and his companions.

When both sides were about to pass by, Shang Jianyao smiled, took out a nameplate, and gestured in secretly on his chest.

It was a nameplate with red background and gold letters.

It says:

"Pangu creatures"

When Bai Chen saw this nameplate, he seemed to have connected the memory circuit. Things about Shang Jianyao and Jiang Baimian came back to her mind.

She gritted her teeth tightly to prevent herself from showing any abnormalities.

After the two sides had already opened a distance, she moved the corners of her mouth slightly and raised her hand to block the slightly red eyes.
