The weapon refiner is not doing her job properly

Chapter 119 The Curse (End)

Song Hu did not answer. He wanted to stay with Su Ninglong and wait for Qi Rui's news. He was not the one who made the decision.

Su Ninglong said, "You've hurt so many people, so don't expect to say goodbye to your fans in a dignified way."

“They did it voluntarily; they all filled out my wedding invitations,” Yuan Ming insisted. “I was just doing it to accommodate their good intentions.”

"You don't have a wedding, you bastard." Lei Qingya threw a punch. "What right does a fraudster have to accept kindness from others?"

Yuan Ming's nose and cheeks were swollen from being hit. "She hit me; it was violent law enforcement."

Lei Qingya's heart pounded. She looked around and, thankfully, there were no surveillance cameras in this spot.

"I didn't hit you. You just tripped and fell down, and that's how you got hurt."

Su Ninglong: "That's right, I'm a witness."

What kind of testimony can a child like you provide?

Everyone turned away and remained silent, pretending not to see anything unless the surveillance footage showed it.

"I will curse you, I will curse you..." Yuan Ming was furious and embarrassed.

Su Ninglong grasped his fingertips, and a wisp of spiritual fire rushed into his body, sealing all the meridians in his body.

The curse's power was instantly erased. "What did you do?"

Su Ninglong nodded to the Star Police and logistics personnel, "He can no longer curse, so take him away without worry. Just keep an eye on him to make sure he doesn't escape."

"We understand."

People with special abilities all have an inexplicable arrogance. They have encountered several such cases before, and when they couldn't escape, they would seek death.

"Let's go, we're going to the next location." Lei Qingya drove, and Lao Wang and Xue Wanshan, without thinking, followed Su Ninglong into the hovercar and headed towards the coordinates where Qirui had stopped.

Song Hu remained silent, his clenched fists betraying his turbulent inner state.

His mind was filled with thoughts of karmic retribution and the concept of blame.

He felt that this technique had many uses, but his mind was completely occupied by the surprise of the breakthrough he had just achieved after successfully using it.

After being stuck in his cultivation for a long time, he finally broke through and was able to take the White Hunter exam.

Word Masters generally have low cultivation levels, and the Star Alliance has consistently rejected his assessment applications. One reason is that his spiritual energy reserves are insufficient. He can handle dealing with humans alone without much trouble, but he would struggle against a one-star Mystic Spirit.

Previously, Song Hu felt that the Star Alliance Academy's inner court assessment criteria were somewhat harsh, but now, for some reason, he didn't want to reveal the fact that he had been promoted.

After becoming a White Hunter, you will frequently need to go on missions.

If you don't apply, but stay at the college a little longer, you might learn more tips and tricks.

First, I'll be on good terms with Suninglong and hone my skills. Then I'll consider getting a white hunter license later.

In a daze, the hovercar had already stopped in front of a skyscraper.

Here, Su Ninglong could sense Qi Rui, but they did not rashly enter the building to search for him.

These buildings have tight security, making it difficult to sneak in. Even as a Star Police officer, it's inconvenient to enter, as it's easy to lose sight of the target.

The hovercar parked in the parking lot closest to the building, and Lei Qingya entered assistant mode, searching online for companies inside the building.

It's impossible for a building to house only one company; it would be too big, and there's no need to use it all as offices. It must consist of multiple companies.

After that, she checked the agent's personal information, and Lei Qingya immediately conducted big data screening and integration.

"Found it. This agent used to work at a media company in this building for five years. He switched to his current company two years ago, so there's a high chance he's here to see his former boss." Lei Qingya located Qi Rui's position and confirmed his guess by checking the 3D map.

However, it is not confirmed who the agent is with.

"The building is too big, and there are too many people, making it impossible to eavesdrop accurately." Lei Qingya regretted that he had too few technological means.

Su Ninglong smiled and said, "Is being entangled with an ex a sign of corporate espionage?"

Your choice of words could fill a 200,000-word novel.

Xue Wanshan glanced sideways at Su Ninglong. Has Su Ninglong always been like this? Like a mischievous kid who's happy just being naughty.

"We can't rule out that possibility. But Yuan Ming is the only famous artist from the company he works for." The company only has a dozen or so artists, and only five virtual stars, so it's not a large company.

Lei Qingya's implication was that there was no need to engage in commercial espionage, and that the acquisition would not be difficult for the agent's former company.

"If we can poach Yuan Ming, we'll make a fortune. We don't need anyone else." Old Wang took off his hat and wiped the sweat from his forehead. "In our line of work, we've seen even dirtier business battles."

"Tell me about it." Su Ninglong rested her chin on her hand, looking out the window with a relaxed demeanor.

"Send cleaning spies to poison the fish in the aquarium and kill all the plants." As soon as Old Wang said this, Lei Qingya nodded vigorously in agreement: "How filthy. If it were my dad, he would go and fight the rival company."

"It's really filthy. Whoever dares to kill my two frogs, I'll kill him tomorrow too."

Furthermore, the word "dirty" was uttered by Su Ninglong.

Xue Wanshan and Song Hu, who were not business people, did not understand the "dirt" they were talking about.

They listened to the two men's next conversation and then they understood.

"Were your two frogs originally mascots?"

Su Ninglong: "Originally they were food, but they were willing to sacrifice themselves for me, so I reluctantly allowed them to become feng shui frogs."

Are fish, plants, and frogs all mascots?

Su Ninglong wasn't in a hurry to find Yuan Ming's agent, nor did she want to eavesdrop. With the Star Police around, it wasn't appropriate, since detective activities weren't popular with the Star Police.

"Want some? Milk candy, to replenish your energy." Su Ninglong handed out the candy.

Without hesitation, Song Hu picked up a piece and put it in his mouth. The rich milky flavor instantly filled his mouth. He didn't really like dairy products because many dairy products on the market had a strange artificial flavor.

Even dairy products labeled "additive-free" still employ some advanced technology to preserve them for so long. But this Suning Long product has a pure milky flavor.

"Handmade candy?"

"You can tell? My brother Yuan made it."

Xue Wanshan also took one. "Is it Mr. Xing?"

"Yes. He's the best assistant." At this moment, Su Ninglong was completely like a child, showing off the countless merits of her family.

Lei Qingya also thought that Xingyuan deserved such praise from Su Ninglong. The assistant's cooking skills were perfect, she was patient, meticulous, and good-looking. The only drawback might be that she spoiled the child too much.

“It’s moved,” Lei Qingya suddenly said. She was referring to Qirui, which had begun to move.

"Observe the surroundings, remain vigilant, and activate the holographic recording equipment to ensure that the surrounding environment is recorded without any blind spots."

Lei Qingya obeyed the command, activating the holographic collector in his palm. The silver sphere rose into the air and began scanning.

Four sets of real-time images are projected simultaneously onto the vehicle's screen.

Su Ninglong stared at the constantly updating surveillance footage, and a three-dimensional map gradually took shape in her mind.

"You think someone's trying to assassinate the agent?" Old Wang stroked his stubble. "Aren't you overthinking it? Is it really necessary to kill someone?" Who would dare to kill someone on Gemini's main planet?
As a veteran police officer with 20 years of service, he didn't want to get involved in such a big case. If a murder really happened, they wouldn't be able to take any more leave until the real culprit was found.

After all, Yuan Ming is a public figure, and his agent is also a semi-public figure.

Xue Wanshan was inclined to side with Lao Wang, but his intuition told him that things would probably go in the direction Su Ninglong had envisioned.

The collector, suspended in mid-air, refreshed the screen in sync. The agent, wearing a gray trench coat, was pulling down the brim of his hat, and the high collar covered half of his face.

Su Ninglong immediately locked onto the location. When the figure stepped onto the sidewalk, the hem of the trench coat, which had been swaying rhythmically, suddenly froze. The agent was suddenly stiff on the virtual zebra crossing, and a bloody hole suddenly exploded in the center of his skull.

Crimson blood trickled down his face. The moment he collapsed, passersby looked surprised, then screamed and ran away, turning the road into chaos.

"Lei Lei, head towards the building," Su Ninglong instructed.

The hovercar rose silently, spun sharply, crossed the air tunnel, and accelerated towards the building.

Other vehicles nearly crashed into it, but fortunately the emergency system activated, and the vehicles that could not stop rapidly descended in height, narrowly missing Lei Qingya's leap vehicle.

Xue Wanshan gripped her seatbelt tightly, as if she could hear the driver's curses.

Su Ninglong pulled out a standard-issue gun from her backpack and pointed it at the black-clad man who had abandoned his weapon and was fleeing from the rooftop. "Song Hu, help me immobilize that person dressed entirely in black."

"Don't be impulsive, what if you miss?" Old Wang quickly said.

However, Song Hu and Su Ninglong acted quickly. The two had already completed their tactical coordination. Su Ninglong fired at the frozen figure, "Bang!" The shot hit the person's leg.

A metallic clang rang out, and a cold metallic glint flashed beneath the skin of the assassin's thigh—his leg had been modified.

Su Ninglong was not surprised.

The man may not have realized that there was a bird stalking behind him, but he reacted extremely quickly, using the agility of his mechanical legs to turn around and run at top speed.

The agile figure ran to the other side of the building, and when he reached the rooftop railing, he transformed into a silver lightning bolt and leaped off.

During this time, Su Ninglong was shot repeatedly—in the arms, the back… and finally the neck.

She held back, only striking the other person's neck.

The hovercar chased after them, but when it reached the other side of the building, it saw no one.

"The assassin escaped." The fact that he could escape like that means he has special abilities.

"Let's descend," Su Ninglong said calmly.

"Aren't we going to track him down?" Xue Wanshan asked anxiously. "What if he's just hiding nearby?"

"We are people with special abilities; we track people and have other means."

The hovercar landed. There was no parking lot on top of the building, only a coffee shop with an excellent view. If it weren't for the coffee shop blocking the view, that person wouldn't have been able to escape so easily.

Wearing gloves, Lei Qingya picked up the blood-stained bullet, opened the medical kit, collected the blood from the bullet, and put it into the kit. "If he has a genetic profile on the main planet, we can quickly identify who he is."

Su Ninglong touched the Qirui at her feet. "Smell it and see where it went. All you need to know is where it went."

"Meow."

"Once we get there, hide well. We'll come find you later." Qi Rui reluctantly rubbed against Su Ninglong, then wiggled his hips and disappeared from the spot.

"It's saved a lot of trouble for Qirui to come along. He has special abilities, which makes things much easier for him than for us ordinary people," Old Wang said with a hint of envy.

"It's not that great either. If a certain ability disappears, it will be very troublesome." Su Ninglong yawned and said, "The power of technology is still the best. Everyone can use it."

"Hahaha." Old Wang liked Su Ninglong's humble demeanor.

But the next moment, their laughter vanished, for the assassin Qi Rui had been tracking was dead.

He died in a park restroom, his body covered in a layer of hot lava. The surface rock had frozen black, and the flesh inside was presumably carbonized.

No information was left behind.

If it weren't for the bloodstains from that bullet, they might not have even been able to identify the assassin.

"Qirui, when you came, did you see anyone kill him?"

Qi Rui shook his head.

"He died before you got here?"

Qi Rui tilted his head, unsure of what to say, shaking his head and nodding at the same time.

"You watched him die, but you don't know who the murderer is, and you can't track them down, right?"

"Top-notch understanding, Su Ninglong is right. No wonder she's Qirui's master," Qirui nodded, "that's exactly it."

Looking at the corpse, Lao Wang and Xue Wanshan felt a chill run down their spines; the person behind it was extremely cautious.

The other side anticipated that the Star Alliance might deploy a navigator dog, so they found a special ability user with anti-navigator dog tracking skills to cut off the tail beforehand.

Su Ninglong: "Was anything found inside Yuan Ming's property?"

The information would be shared with the Star Police immediately. Old Wang realized what was happening and checked it right away. "It's a small toy."

A pair of children's colorful glasses, so cute, and the size is also for kids.

The image has been slightly pixelated, but Su Ninglong can tell that this thing looks a lot like a "telescope toy".

"Why is it censored?" Su Ninglong asked.

Old Wang said, "These things are very dangerous. Even seeing their true appearance could lead to contamination. To protect us ordinary people, we can usually only provide a picture of their outline and some text information."

So the monocular telescope toy is far more dangerous than she imagined?
Su Ninglong thought of the Star Alliance's books about Mystic Spirits. No wonder they weren't shared and were so hard to buy; even just looking at the pictures, there was a possibility of contamination.

It has a cross-shaped pupil with tentacles around the pupil.

"Can this be combined with Xiao Liu's case?" Su Ninglong felt that she could try to get the truth out of Xiao Liu's death, since the two had many similarities.

"I don't know." Old Wang wiped his round face with his big hand. "Let's go back! This is something for us Star Police to handle."

Su Ninglong knew that as a hunter, continuing the investigation would be overstepping her bounds. She nodded, but remained in place to wait until the other crew members arrived before leaving to ensure the safety of Lao Wang and Xue Wanshan.

"Despite being so well-prepared, we still fell short by one move." Lei Qingya was somewhat annoyed. Su Ninglong had anticipated the opponent's actions first and then hid in an ambush, so why was she able to get there first?

Su Ninglong was also reflecting on the shortcomings of her actions. Perhaps she had been too overconfident, and she should have invited another hunter.

Before Lei Qingya could finish speaking, Su Ninglong received a message from within the Star Alliance.

"Oh no, how could they do this? I've already completed my mission!" Su Ninglong exclaimed in shock.

"what happened?"

“They want me to write a self-criticism because I predicted that my agent would die, but I didn’t stop it.” Su Ninglong slumped in her chair. “I can’t understand it. I was just making a prediction. I’m not a god. How could I know that the other person would definitely die?”

Schrödinger's death actually led to the protection of the suspect?
"Pfft." Lei Qingya chuckled.

"You're making fun of me. I'm so busy, so you'll have to write this self-criticism."

Lei Qingya: "..."
