My Job Is Quite Unique Chapter 81

Chapter 81: True Recklessness!

On the top floor of the Supervision Department, Zhang Hongbo, Yang Yan, and Gu Bing were gathered together.

“You two, you can’t stay silent.” Zhang Hongbo paced back and forth, his face showing unprecedented anxiety, “Think of a solution. Large-scale screening is like searching for a needle in a haystack. It’s impossible to find clues in a short time.”

“If this continues, the entire Nanfeng City might be destroyed, and countless people will become vagrants!”

“Enough.” Yang Yan snapped angrily, “Aren’t you just afraid of being punished by the Tribunal if something goes wrong? What are you talking about vagrants for?”

“A Heretic God Cultist priest is at least a Tier 4 professional, and their methods are bizarre. No matter how much you urge us, we can’t do anything.”

“Only a few of us came this time. Who knew that your Nanfeng had rotted to this extent!”

The three fell silent, while Gu Bing’s face was full of sorrow. “No one expected Heituo to invest such a large force. We thought it was just a normal sweep.”

“If there wasn’t evidence that the previously lost Space Crystal might have fallen into Nanfeng, Judge Xia might not even have come.”

Zhang Hongbo was also utterly helpless, cursing the Heretic God Cultists. He didn’t know what was so coveted in Nanfeng City that it was worth sending a priest.

Just as the three were at their wits’ end, a knock on the door suddenly sounded.

“What is he doing here?” Zhang Hongbo glanced up, already knowing who it was through his life magnetic field.

“Come in!” He composed himself, looking calm and collected.

“City Lord, something big has happened!” Sun Tai rushed in, drenched in sweat. Seeing Yang Yan, the two men froze.

But he still remembered Gu Bing and speculated that these two must be Envoys from Ying Feng.

“What’s wrong!” Zhang Hongbo’s heart tightened.

“Someone attacked Su Chen!” Sun Tai said urgently.

Yang Yan and Gu Bing immediately looked over.

“Attacked Su Chen?” Zhang Hongbo paused, thinking something was wrong with Nanfeng City.

Then, he felt something was off again. He opened his smart bracelet and found no incoming messages.

“Where did you get this information?” Zhang Hongbo frowned as he asked.

“Su Chen told me,” Sun Tai was anxious but had to explain.

“Su Chen told you that he was about to be attacked?” Zhang Hongbo’s brows furrowed even tighter.

Sun Tai was stunned. The first moment he received Su Chen’s message, he became anxious and rushed to find Zhang Hongbo. Now, after hearing the other party’s words, he also felt a bit strange.

Sun Tai couldn’t help but say, “Perhaps Su Chen is sharp and detected the danger in advance. Alas… City Lord, I’ve already sent Old Du to go over. I hope you can send more…”

Without his command, the Deputy Director of Supervision had already left. Instinctively, Zhang Hongbo felt annoyed.

“Beep-beep-”

His smart bracelet finally vibrated. Looking down, Zhang Hongbo’s expression changed slightly, a very awkward and strange look appearing on his face, as if helpless, as if forlorn.

“What’s wrong?” Gu Bing asked.

“Old Xia is with Su Chen.” Zhang Hongbo sat down again and sighed.

Gu Bing couldn’t help but smile bitterly. “As expected of Old Xia, he still found out.”

Yang Yan closed his eyes and sighed.

Fatty Sun looked puzzled, only to see Zhang Hongbo wave his hand and say, “Su Chen is fine, no need to worry.”

“Oh, oh…” Sun Tai hadn’t reacted yet and was muttering in his heart.

…

“You said the source of the mist?”

Su Chen’s mind was reeling, he swayed and stood up straight, only to feel a cold wind blowing at him.

He looked left and right, then realized he was on the roof of the Supervision Department, and he gasped. It was too fast.

Xia Hanshi glanced at him, even more surprised. “Someone is actually curious about this kind of question.”

Su Chen felt inexplicable. Isn’t it normal to be curious about such a question?

Uh… it didn’t seem quite normal. He then realized that the reason he was curious was because he had lived in a world without mist in his previous life.

Naturally, he was curious about this situation, but for the lives in this world, the world was originally like this, so who would be curious?

If someone were to transmigrate to his previous life, they might still be curious that there was no mist in that world. “I don’t know, perhaps in the depths of the starry sky,” Xia Hanshi replied casually.

“Depths of the starry sky?” Su Chen couldn’t help but look up. The sky above was pitch black, with only artificial light casting a dim glow.

These words seemed to hold a different meaning.

“Let’s go.” Xia Hanshi had already walked down the stairs, and Su Chen quickly followed.

…

“Brother Su!”

Sun Tai, who had been sitting uneasily, exclaimed in surprise when he saw Su Chen walking into the office. He quickly rushed over,

Touching Su Chen’s body all over, “Brother, are you alright? Are you hurt?”

Su Chen subtly shifted to the side, shaking off Sun Tai’s fat hand, and shook his head, “I’m fine.”

“That’s good.” Sun Tai immediately breathed a sigh of relief. “If anything happened to you, I wouldn’t know how to explain it to the Minister.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a shiver all over his body.

He then noticed an old man, withered and stooped, following behind Su Chen.

It was him!

Sun Tai felt a chill in his heart. He had seen the man not long ago, carrying the Ying Feng Tribunal emblem, coming to him to investigate some matters.

He remembered the man’s aura vividly.

Xia Hanshi walked past him directly.

“Old Xia.”

A chorus of greetings came from behind.

Sun Tai turned around and realized that everyone, including the Ying Feng Envoys and Zhang Hongbo, had risen to their feet, their expressions respectful.

So, his surname was Xia, and his status seemed to be quite high.

Xia Hanshi was expressionless, scanning the three of them, his gaze finally settling on Yang Yan.

Without him making any move, the cold, white-haired man’s face turned pale. He spat out a mouthful of hot blood and staggered backward.

Gu Bing felt a chill in her heart, felt a sharp pain in her abdomen, and flew backward, also wailing and spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.

“Backstabbing the Chief Justice, this isn’t a loss, is it?” Xia Hanshi said lightly.

Chief… Chief… Chief Justice?

Sun Tai’s eyes widened, feeling dizzy. He had never encountered such a big shot.

He just made a move? Su Chen didn’t know what to think.

“Deserved.” Yang Yan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, not trying to explain himself.

“The punishment is not unwarranted,” Gu Bing forced herself to stand up.

Then, Xia Hanshi’s gaze turned to Zhang Hongbo.

Bang!

Flames erupted around Zhang Hongbo, and he flew sideways, slammed into the wall, then fell to the ground, vomiting a large mouthful of blood.

“Who gave you permission to use my student as bait?” Xia Hanshi’s gaze was cold.

Student? Sun Tai next to him was dumbfounded. What student? Who?

Yang Yan and Gu Bing had an “I knew it” expression, looking at Su Chen with complex emotions, and a hint of pity.

Old Zhang, it really wasn’t me who incited this, Su Chen thought to himself, but looking at Zhang Hongbo’s pale face, he felt quite happy.

However, seeing the looks in Gu Bing’s eyes, he was also speechless. How did it seem like half of his body was already in the grave?

Even the City Lord was beaten? Sun Tai was as silent as a cicada in winter, his mind in chaos, not daring to speak.

Zhang Hongbo supported his body to stand up, staggering. Although he was a Psionist, he had also tried the Melee Fighter path when he was young, but his rank was not high, only Tier 2.

This time, he was truly badly injured, his lungs aching severely, looking like he would fall over with a gust of wind.

Zhang Hongbo swallowed the sweetness in his mouth and gritted his teeth, “I’m sorry, it was my oversight.”
