My Job Is Quite Unique Chapter 82

Chapter 82 Dual Crimson Gold! (First order!)

“Hmph…” Xia Hanshi snorted coldly.

Zhang Hongbo’s throat twitched, and he couldn’t help but wonder, with this incident, plus the previous compensation, Su Chen’s anger should be mostly appeased.

Su Chen saw him occasionally glancing at himself, probably thinking that he was the one who instigated it.

Xia Hanshi said, “Little fatty, you can go back now.”

There was only Sun Tai who was fat, and he immediately reacted, hastily saying, “I’m going, I’m going.”

He left in a hurry, still hesitantly glancing at Su Chen, as if asking him if he wasn’t leaving.

Seeing Su Chen slightly shaking his head, Sun Tai felt puzzled but didn’t ask, and could only tiptoe out, closing the door behind him.

However, just as the door crack closed, he heard Su Chen say, “Teacher…”

Teacher? Sun Tai paused slightly. He subconsciously thought, is Minister Yuan back?

But then he denied it, and then, as if receiving an electric shock, scenes of what had just happened flashed before his eyes.

The incident happened so suddenly that he had no time to think inside. He only realized it now, and his face instantly became very colorful.

The student mentioned by Judge Xia is Su Chen?

Minister, your home has been robbed!

…

“Teacher, City Lord was also trying to capture the Heretic God Cultists earlier. It’s understandable.”

In the room, Su Chen spoke with a tone of persuasion.

Zhang Hongbo coughed dryly, spat out blood into the trash can, and looked at him in surprise.

Xia Hanshi said calmly, “So, he’s still alive. Bring the talent detector.”

“Yes.” Zhang Hongbo endured the discomfort, opened his smart bracelet, and issued instructions on the virtual screen.

“Old Xia…” Zhang Hongbo took a few breaths, but still bit the bullet and said, “Can you think of a way? We can’t let the Heretic God Cult run rampant in Nanfeng City.”

“Su Chen…” Xia Hanshi grinned, “Look, it’s clearly his fault for not investigating thoroughly in the early stages, but now it’s become my problem.”

“If I can’t come up with a solution, will I be accused of disregarding human lives?”

Zhang Hongbo quickly explained, “That’s not what I meant.”

“Hmph…” Xia Hanshi sneered, “You say it’s not and it’s not? If Nanfeng City really has a problem, your teacher, in order to save you, will definitely blame me.”

“A large part of my reputation comes from this.”

He was explaining this to Su Chen. Since he was his student, he shouldn’t have too deep a misunderstanding of him.

Su Chen listened silently. He didn’t quite believe what Gu Bing said, and he didn’t quite believe what Old Xia said himself.

Yang Yan and Gu Bing were breathing heavily, their expressions hesitant.

They haven’t cooperated with this person before, and this clean-up was originally just the two of them. Xia Hanshi came along temporarily.

Their understanding of Xia Hanshi also came from rumors in the Tribunal, but now it seems there’s an inside story?

“If there’s a problem, solve the problem.” Xia Hanshi said in a deep voice, “It’s unrealistic to depend on others. We don’t understand Nanfeng, so it’s up to you to find out where the priest is hiding.”

“From what I know about them, the hiding place must be very secret. If they want to summon the Abyssal God Vessel, the preparation process will be very complex, and it won’t work if it’s not secret.”

“Secret?” Zhang Hongbo frowned, “Nanfeng is only so big, there’s no place too secret.”

Abyssal God Vessel? Heituo’s?

Su Chen, who was beside him, had an even worse feeling after hearing this.

He had absorbed the power from the Guiding several times. Would this guy’s arrival be because of him?

Heituo’s cultists have been constantly investing power into Nanfeng City, and it might be related to him.

He pondered, but didn’t speak rashly.

Just as Zhang Hongbo was about to say something more, there was a knock on the door. His men had brought the talent detector. “Come on.” Xia Hanshi opened it, and Su Chen leaned in to see. It was similar to the one Old Yuan used last time.

He threw out the mental talent detection device, and everyone’s eyes turned to it. Su Chen had already admitted it last time, but it hadn’t been tested.

Su Chen reached out and took it, and soon, a rich crimson gold light beam emerged from it.

Everyone was unsurprised, and Xia Hanshi nodded in satisfaction.

“Still crimson gold… but it seems richer.” Su Chen muttered to himself, “I thought it would be higher…”

The 100% bonus from Sage and Scholar, even if his own mental talent was Brilliant Silver, doubled, did not break through crimson gold.

“Take another look at the physical talent for the record.” Xia Hanshi thought for a moment and then threw out another detection orb.

Su Chen reached out and took it.

Everyone else had already looked away. Zhang Hongbo was contemplating where in Nanfeng could be sufficiently secluded.

Xia Hanshi’s eyes flickered. He didn’t expect to find a crimson gold talent this time, and a Vagrant at that.

Due to his reputation, very few crimson gold talents were willing to be his students, so he rarely had the chance to choose one.

“His character seems decent. If he’s nurtured properly, perhaps there’s a real chance…”

As he was pondering, his peripheral vision suddenly caught something. Hmm?

Xia Hanshi abruptly turned his head, his sinister eyes glowing like ghostly flames.

He saw a brilliant crimson gold light beam shining brightly in Su Chen’s hand.

“Physical talent is also crimson gold!?” Zhang Hongbo was stunned.

Old Yuan, Old Yuan, you’ve kept it so well hidden. You actually discovered such a good talent.

Unfortunately, he’s theirs now.

Thinking of this, Zhang Hongbo’s previously gloomy mood actually brightened considerably.

“Dual Crimson Gold? That’s really rare…” Gu Bing’s eyes were unfocused.

Yang Yan coughed twice, a dull pain in his abdomen. Old Xia was too clever. He only let him see Su Chen once, and within a few days, he sensed something was wrong.

“My physical talent has indeed reached the crimson gold level…” Su Chen was not surprised.

“He’s destined to be my student, Xia Hanshi.” Old Xia had already reined in his emotions, but the suppressed excitement was still audible.

“Congratulations, Old Xia.” Yang Yan quickly spoke, and Gu Bing added, “The two of you have a predestined connection.”

Zhang Hongbo also smiled, “What belongs to Old Xia will ultimately belong to him.”

Su Chen: “…”

Seeing that Xia Hanshi seemed to be in a better mood, Zhang Hongbo seized the opportunity and said, “I’ve thought of a solution. Could you give me your opinion and see if it works?”

“Speak.” Xia Hanshi squinted at him.

Zhang Hongbo said, “Nanfeng is simply too large, and our manpower is stretched thin. It’s too late to deploy people from Yingfeng. Do you think we could transfer some people from nearby cities to assist?”

“They won’t dispatch people.” Yang Yan frowned. “Even with Yingfeng’s order, they can shirk responsibility and claim they’ve also discovered Heretic God Cultists in their area.”

If they go to help others, what if something happens on their own side? If there are casualties, it’s a tangible loss for them.

Zhang Hongbo pursed his lips. He had also dealt with Yingfeng’s orders in this way before, so he naturally knew how these people would respond.

“He wants me to be the bad guy.” Xia Hanshi said indifferently, “The City Lords of other cities don’t fear Yingfeng’s wrath, they’ll simply offer excuses, and Yingfeng will at most scold them a bit. But I’m different, I’ll actually come knocking.”
