Welcome to Xiuzhen Academy

Chapter 36 The defecting nun

This is a food street.

Even though it was almost early morning, all the shops and storefronts were still brightly lit.

I can’t remember exactly when it started, but every city has been immersed in such an atmosphere of entertainment to death – there are various places that are open day and night, and there is a constant flow of pedestrians and vehicles on the streets.

Of course, most of Yu Qian's memories are still of the flashing neon lights and colorful lights at night.

Before she was selected by the Cultivation Academy, she had always been a conscientious low-level bounty hunter, spending most of her time working day and night on missions.

The aroma of food reached her nose.

The Inner Ring City also has a down-to-earth side. For example, now, the store owners here will shout loudly when recruiting customers——

"Maid Cafe! Come and have fun with the maids!"

"They are all fresh sea fish! They just arrived here not long ago! They are guaranteed to be delicious! Come in and try them!"

"..."

Yu Qian doesn't like seafood, so he planned to avoid it.

But a flash of lightning flashed through her mind, and her footsteps suddenly stopped in place.

This feeling...this is the feeling!
  The smell of the sea that hits your face makes people feel like they are stepping on the beach.

A young and anxious face appeared in her mind.

That little policeman! He disguises himself so well!
  So she didn't smell the smell of monsters from him, and he didn't have that fishy smell of the sea.

But perhaps because of her strong mental power, Yu Qian's perception ability was stronger than before, and she sensed the breath of this aquatic animal.

He is not the original owner, his body has been taken away, and inside that shell is a monster.

Yu Qian immediately changed direction——

The Inner Ring City has its own black market.

Here it's called the Night Market.

If the black market bounty hunter association in the outer ring city accounts for the majority, then the auction house is naturally the one in the night market.

After Yu Qian had been here once, he was very familiar with the routes here, and easily found the branch of the Bounty Hunters Association here.

Everyone here is unfamiliar.

"Sister Tian's place?" asked the bartender at the entrance.

Yu Qian nodded: "Yes."

"go in."

She walked into the bar and went straight to the bar.

Generally, the console of a bounty association branch is set up at the bar, so whoever is at the bar is the manager of the branch.

This is much livelier than the branch in the outer ring city, and there are people everywhere.

Yu Qian finally squeezed in from the crowd.

She put the battery back into the mechanical dog's body: "Bai, bring up the surveillance camera of my candy store this afternoon."

"Wait a moment."

After a while, a video appeared on the light screen in front of her.

"The surveillance was compromised, only some footage."

The surveillance footage was intermittent, and Third Lin's face never appeared from beginning to end.

It seems that the Federation has done a good job in keeping the Operations Department confidential.

She dragged the progress bar to the back, revealing the face of the little policeman. This guy was not an important person, and it seemed that there was no time to erase his face.

"Sister, I want to offer a reward to find someone." She said, "He is a police officer from the Operations Department."

With that said, Yu Qian adjusted the display of the light screen to be visible to everyone.

The woman at the counter had short hair and a cool temperament. He glanced at her and then at her light screen: "From the Outer Ring City?"

"Yes." Yu Qian replied, each regional branch has its own intelligence network. She has not been to the branch in the inner ring city, so naturally she has not joined, and she cannot directly issue a reward.

The woman nodded and passed a form to her: "You fill out the application and send it directly to the intranet."

After Yu Qian finished filling it out, he sent the screenshot of the photo.

She sat at the bar, hearing the voices of other people talking——

"Are you going to the auction house tomorrow night?" "I've almost spent my money, what's the matter? Do you have any good stuff?"

"Of course! I heard that a defecting nun was captured over there..."

"What! They dare to touch the people of the Holy See!"

"I told you she defected. Let me show you the photo. She is a beauty!"

"Tsk, tsk, she's so beautiful! I don't know which rich man I want to take advantage of."

……

When Yu Qian heard the word nun, he subconsciously cast his gaze in that direction.

The two people's light screens had no privacy settings when sharing photos, and she saw the message from the auction house at a glance.

A photo seemed to flash before my eyes, but I didn't have time to see it clearly.

Only those who have a certain amount of funds and have spent money at the auction house are eligible to receive information from the auction house.

Of course Yu Qian didn't.

She had no choice but to move closer: "Huh? This nun looks like the star I used to see on the big screen in the commercial district!"

The man smiled and said, "Yes, why would you think of betraying the Holy See if you are so beautiful? I guess the end will be miserable."

As he spoke, he turned the photo back.

Yu Qian finally saw clearly - his long blond hair was stained with blood, and his blue eyes were half-closed, as if he was injured and had no strength to open his eyes.

Secchia...?
  "And I heard that this girl is from Shangcheng District." He added.

Yu Qian asked curiously: "How rich do you have to be to take the photo?"

"Hahahaha, I guess the starting bid is 70 to 80 million. If you don't get more than 1 billion, you can't win it. Tsk, these damn plutocrats."

Yu Qian deeply agreed: "Damn rich people!"

After she finished cursing, she left the crowd and returned to the bar. She called out: "Sister, does the branch here receive news? How is the compensation?"

The cold woman glanced at her: "That depends on the value of your news."

"About the operations department." Yu Qian added, "The senior management of the operations department must be an official at least."

"Do you have news from the Operations Department?" The woman's expression became a little more serious.

It's no wonder that the Operations Department has always been in fierce conflict with the Bounty Association, but almost no one can get information from the top management of the Operations Department.

Yu Qian nodded: "Yes, how much."

"It starts at five million, and if it's valuable, I'll add more money." The woman said, "But you'd better not think about lying, otherwise you will end up in a terrible end. Come with me."

The woman led her to open the secret door from the wine storage room behind the bar.

Yu Qian followed the woman, and the only sound in his ears was the click of the woman's high heels.

Finally the footsteps stopped.

The woman turned sideways, revealing another door in front of her: "Go in."

Yu Qian opened the door.

Inside is a low-key luxurious suite.

But there was no one behind the desk.

Yu Qian frowned.

"Are you the one selling information about the Operations Department?" The voice came from the speaker on the table.

It seems that I am not here.

The voice said again: "Say it."

Yu Qian said directly: "Inner Ring City should know that the levels of the Operations Department are reversed. I met an E-level guy named Third Lin. His number is 19. His superpower is the space system. What I know is that What I saw was that he could imprison the enemy and squeeze the space around him."

She added: "Do you need a photo? I can use AI to synthesize one."

After finishing speaking, there was a brief silence.

"Okay, let the person who brought you here pay you."

Yu Qian asked: "How much?"

"……Fifty million."
