Great, I'm surrounded by villains.

Chapter 158 The gangster eats the gangster

"Mr. Mingyuan and I came to Yuquan Bathhouse at our own expense to enjoy our vacation..."

"Stop your review of last episode."

Duan Mingyuan stopped Jiu Yue from doing this. It had only been a quarter of an hour since they left the house, so there was no need to review the previous episode to remind them what had happened.

The reason why it took so long was because I had to help September take care of her tail, wiping it dry and then using a hair dryer to dry it.

After arriving at the scene, Duan Mingyuan finally understood what the waiter meant by "the person is missing". The guest in this compartment disappeared, leaving only the red-stained pool.

They had to identify the dead through registers.

As a scholar who studies life energy, Duan Mingyuan observed that the deceased evaporated so thoroughly that not even the life energy was left behind.

Recently, I encountered a murderer who was very agile and didn't even give me a chance to play a resurrection match.

The first person to discover the deceased was a waiter at the bathhouse. The deceased ordered a barbecued shrimp. When the waiter brought the plate over, the deceased had disappeared, leaving only the red-stained pool.

"The deceased is called Polycovatos-Sai, Sai. In short, he is one of the visitors who came to the court with the Chamber of Commerce this time."

Jiu Yue stared at the list for a long time, but still couldn't remember Tianwaimin's name.

"One of the deceased was named Li De. He was one of the company's wanted criminals. The bounty was 7300 million Bei. His partner was a newcomer. This was his first appearance. His real name is unknown."

Obviously, some people have different opinions about the identity of the deceased, and it is a familiar face.

After that, the silver-haired girl gave him a formal smile and stretched out her right hand. "Nice to meet you again, Mr. Duan Mingyuan. I didn't have time to introduce myself last time. I'm Cai Hui, an employee of the Cosmic Relations Coordination Department of Huanyu Company. After I went back yesterday, I learned a lot about your glorious deeds."

As she spoke, she did not forget to glance at the tall figure standing not far away.

The familiar black armor and the face covered by a helmet.

It was a long-awaited reunion, but Tianyun did not come forward to talk, but just stood quietly not far away.

It seems that after the Cosmic Relations Coordination Department recovered the armor, it found a new adapter and inherited the name of Tianyun.

Caihua seemed like a different person when she was working. She was calm and composed. After meeting September, she just glanced at her tail and didn't look at her any more. She was completely different from the crazy fan who was screaming in the audience yesterday.

"According to what I learned, this way of death seems to be somewhat similar to your ability."

According to the intelligence gathered by the company, if someone dies at the hands of Duan Mingyuan, no corpse will be left behind, and even the life energy will disappear. Instead, an inconspicuous object will be left at the scene. Unless you witness the entire process, you will never know which of the objects at the scene is the deceased.

"Is that an accusation?"

"Accusation? Of course not. The deceased were notorious interstellar wanted criminals. Killing them will not only not lead to charges, but will also earn you a reward from the company."

This is why she emphasized the bounty. For someone who was troubled by overtime not long ago, 7300 million Bei was an astronomical figure, enough for Duan Mingyuan to squander for the rest of his life.

She added, "According to the procedure, after claiming the body, we bring the half bottle of champagne by the pool back to the company, and then we can issue the reward. The reward will be credited to the account by this afternoon at the earliest."

"The murderer is not me. I have never seen him."

"That's it."

Cai Hui was thoughtful. "The train conductor One-Eye mentioned that you are a pragmatic person and you don't shy away from killing people. However, the last time you encountered the members of Wang Xu, they became goblets on the table."

Now, Reed and his companions were nowhere to be found, and only half a bottle of champagne and two highball glasses were left by the pool.

Even the items left at the crime scene are so similar.

Cai Hui's intuition told her that Duan Mingyuan was not lying, but all the traces left at the scene pointed to Duan Mingyuan.

She continued, "According to the intelligence we have, Li De is most likely the murderer who kidnapped the Red Star Chamber of Commerce envoy. If it was really you who did it, the company will not make it difficult for you, but please tell me where the envoy was kidnapped. This not only concerns the relationship between Red Star and the court, but also the safety of everyone here."

“That’s why we’re investigating this matter.”

"You have also investigated Li De's identity?" Cai Hui was stunned. With the company's connections, she worked overtime all night yesterday to find out Li De's identity.

"No, but we... have our own way."

Under such circumstances, it would be difficult for Duan Mingyuan to explain to Cai Hui Ke Pu the theory of "slacking off in law enforcement", as this would make him look more like a murderer who could not find an excuse for a while after committing a murder and could only make up a story on the spur of the moment.

"Since you found out their identities, why didn't you arrest him?"

Jiu Yue questioned that she could prove that Mr. Yuan could not be the murderer.

Although if Mr. Mingyuan is willing, he can indeed create a closed-room murder case across several compartments, but that requires absolute concentration.

And she was very sure that when they were in the cubicle just now, Mr. Mingyuan's attention was on her and the mini shark in the pool.

The shark swam in the water for a while and then disappeared. She was lost for a while.

"When we tracked down his whereabouts, he had already entered the bathhouse. We were facing a criminal who had a bounty of 7200 million shells and had escaped the company's pursuit many times. When he came, there were envoys from various planets in the bathhouse. If we act rashly, all the guests will be put in danger."

According to their original plan, they would take action after Reed left the bathhouse, but no one expected that this interstellar wanted criminal died in the bathhouse before they took action, and not even a body was left.

Moreover, this matter was much more complicated than it seemed, so much so that she had to wonder if this was really just a terrorist act?

Why did Li De and his companions dare to come to a public place like a bathhouse for vacation after kidnapping the envoy of the Red Star Chamber of Commerce?
Where does their confidence come from?
But now all the clues are gone, and these questions have become mysteries.

"Suppose you are telling the truth, and someone else killed Li De and his accomplices."

Cai Hui calmed down and said, "That is to say, at this moment, besides you, there is another person in Yuquan Bathhouse who can kill Li De silently and dispose of the body without leaving any trace."

More importantly, the company had no intelligence about this person.

"They had already planned to silence me."

Cai Hui came to the conclusion, "They called Li De here just to kill him and silence him."

Small Theatre No. 8:

On Thursday, noon

It is the monthly evil spirit team building day again. The young evil spirits invited Ms. Night Fate, the "Executive Director of the Evil Organization". In the last meeting, Ms. Night Fate suggested that it is very simple to anger the ogre. Just mess up the hair and wear socks with one long and one short, and the ogre's blood pressure will soar.

In their subsequent practice, they found that the consequences they encountered were very different from those of Ms. Night Fate.

After Ms. Nightbane angered the ogre, the ogre not only helped her tidy up her hair, but also comforted her by holding her up high.

However, the last young evil spirit who tried to use the same method on the ogre was hit by the ogre's iron fist, knocked unconscious and thrown into the sewer, and only woke up a few days later.

"Why is that?"

The evil spirits were puzzled, and as a result, their long-term plan of making the ogre angry and causing high blood pressure was ruined.

"Bosses at the chief's level usually have mechanisms. If you act rashly without understanding the mechanisms, you will end up destroying yourself. First, you need to paralyze the chief, balabala (saves tens of thousands of words)."

The evil spirits felt drowsy after hearing this.

As the meeting was drawing to a close, someone finally stood up and bravely spoke out what the other evil spirits were thinking.

"Can you give a brief summary?"

"To put it simply."

Jiu Yue thought about every detail about herself and Mr. Ming Yuan, and the answer was obvious.

——"It means eating, playing and sleeping together."
