Then, Hai Xi continued, "I don't have the missionary's secret medicine and formula, but I know where it might be. I have the formula for the ascetic's medicine but not the secret medicine. As for the treacherous ones, I happen to have a prepared secret medicine and the formula here."

She gazed at He Ao, her wine-red eyes shimmering with a halo of light. "So, is there anything I can do to help you?"

The information that missionaries are among the follow-up talents of the almsgiver was obtained by Heo from the detective agency.

The detective agency's information comes from the mysterious man.

Judging from the mysterious man's past arrangements, his original plan was probably to promote Jess to a missionary.

After a superhuman is promoted to C-rank, they will receive a comprehensive improvement. If Jess successfully promotes to C-rank, the possibility of things going beyond control will greatly increase.

Therefore, in order to control Jess, Mystic must have some way of controlling or influencing the 'missionary'.

After a moment's thought, He Ao looked up at Hai Xi and asked, "If I want the terrorists' secret medicine and formula, what do I need to give in return?"

"This 'ruthless bandit' still needs to have his talent sequence extracted and concocted into a secret medicine,"

Hai Xi glanced at the thin man in the suitcase. "There's a difference in labor costs. I can give you a discount and the secret medicine for the terrorists, but I really can't give you the formula. I run a business and have so many people to support; I need to eat too."

At this point, she looked back at He Ao and said, "How about you help me get a commission? I can give you the secret medicine formula as payment."

"What commission?"

He Ao asked.

"There is a commission to steal an important chip."

Hai Xi thought for a moment and then quickly replied.

"Stealing is illegal."

He replied calmly.

"?"

Hai Xi was momentarily speechless, but then continued, "There's a murder case. The target is a D-level individual, possibly with C-level protection."

"Murder is a crime."

He replied calmly once again.

Hai Xi: ?

She glanced at the corpse on the ground and felt a moment of confusion.

Is the person in front of me a law-abiding citizen?

"It seems we can't make a deal."

He Ao reached out and pressed down on the suitcase lid, and the automatic lock clicked shut.

Then he picked up his suitcase and walked towards the door he had opened when he came in.

Buzz —

With a soft tinkling sound as the coin bounced, a soft shout suddenly came from behind He Ao.

"Wait a moment!"

It's almost six thousand words now, please vote for me!

Heo turned around and looked at Haixi.

At that moment, Hai Xi was making a fist with one hand and covering it with the other. As He Ao turned around, she slowly lifted the other hand that was covering the fist, revealing a coin with its face up.

This is a 1-Federal coin. Theoretically, the obverse of the coin features the portrait of Ellenska, the first mayor of Dawn City, while the reverse features the olive star emblem symbolizing the unity of the Federation.

Hai Xi glanced at the coin on the back of her hand, gently lifted it, and the coin flew up, which she then caught in her palm.

"A bodyguard mission, tonight. You only need to ensure the client's safety during the mission, and I will give you the formula."

She withdrew her hand from the coin and looked at He Ao, "This task is not illegal."

Where is the mission location?

He Ao calmly pressed for an answer.

"Huiermei Medical Building".

Hai Xi answered quickly.

The Huierme Medical Foundation, second only to Qunxing Pharmaceuticals among medical conglomerates, has its headquarters, the Huierme Medical Building, located in Whitland.

"Who is the client? What is their financial strength?"

He Ao pressed for an answer.

"I am the client."

Hai Xi sat on the sofa and smiled calmly.

He Ao glanced at the headless, burly man's corpse that had just fallen to the ground. This man's strength was probably at a relatively strong level of D-rank. Hai Xi was able to kill him easily, which proved that Hai Xi possessed the strength of the peak of D-rank or C-rank.

Such strength needs protection, which suggests that they might encounter C-level enemies.

He Ao picked up his suitcase, turned around, and continued walking out, saying, "It's cheap."

It's not that we can't do it, but that we offered a lower price.

The crisp new coin tumbled between Hai Xi's slender fingers. She picked it up, watched He Ao's retreating figure, and said again,

"You are only responsible for protecting my safety. If I return safely after everything is over without encountering any danger, I will tell you the secret medicine formula. However, if I encounter danger and there are enemies with C-level or equivalent combat power, the price will be calculated separately."

"It seems you've run into some serious trouble?"

Heo turned around and looked at Haixi.

"It's normal. I sit in this position, and every day people want to replace me. My position may seem glamorous, but to those big shots, I'm nothing more than a dog."

Hashi smiled. "They don't care who sits in the dog's seat, they just need a dog."

"You trust me so much?"

He asked softly, "If He goes easy on her in this kind of bodyguard mission, Hai Xi will be doomed."

“I have to go to the Huiermei Medical Building tonight, but I don’t have any C-level bodyguards with me who are capable of fighting, so I need a strong C-level bodyguard.”

Hai Xi tilted her head. "Although we're not very familiar with each other, you seem reliable enough, and I can't find a more reliable C-level, so I have to take a gamble."

She looked away from He Ao, glanced down at the coin in her hand, and said, "When I gamble, I like to use a coin to see what God will say. If the coin lands heads up, I'll take the gamble; if it lands tails up, I'll pass."

The coin she was holding in her hand...

A human face peeked out from between her fingers, and she continued with a smile, "God made me believe in you."

He glanced at the coin in Haixi's hand, then looked away and asked, "Is the missionary's secret medicine formula with the Huiermei Medical Foundation?"

In Jess's memory, when Starstar Pharmaceuticals' stock price fell, the mysterious man clearly showed a happy mood. There weren't many things that could make the mysterious man show such emotions.

Therefore, He Ao guessed that the mysterious person must have come from a hostile force of Star Pharmaceuticals.

In Waitland, there are not many forces that can be considered rivals of Stars Pharmaceuticals and also wield considerable power. The most obvious of these is the Wyrm Medical Foundation.

The title "missionary" is a talent sequence name given by the mysterious person, and it is highly likely that the mysterious person's faction has the secret medicine formula for the missionary.

Hearing He Ao's question, Hai Xi was taken aback, then smiled and said, "Theoretically, I shouldn't give you this information for free, but since you've already guessed it, I have nothing more to say."

This is tantamount to indirectly confirming He Ao's question.

However, even after confirming the location of the missionary's secret medicine, He Ao could not be certain that the Huiermei Medical Foundation and the mysterious man were necessarily related.

He looked up and asked, "What are you going to do at the Huiermei Medical Building tonight?"

“There’s a charity gala at the Wyrm Medical Building tonight,” Hashi said quickly, clutching a coin. “I’ve been invited to the gala, and usually, guests are allowed to bring one companion.”

Of course, He Ao knew that Hai Xi's situation was definitely not as simple as attending a charity gala. It was impossible for her to encounter any life-threatening danger just by attending a charity gala, and the Huiermei Medical Foundation had no reason to set up a trap for someone like Hai Xi who was involved in the underworld.

However, He Ao did not expose her.

Hai Xi probably knew what He Ao could guess, but she didn't say it outright.

The two maintained a tacit understanding.

Attending the charity gala at the Wyrm Medical Building as Hayes's companion implies that Heo has a legitimate identity to enter the Wyrm Medical Building, where he might discover some clues.

At least until Hai Xi runs into trouble, this identity will not be a problem.

"If there is danger, when would it likely occur?"

He Ao then asked.

"After the dinner, most likely after we leave the Huierme Medical Building,"

Hai Xi quickly replied, "Many prominent figures are attending this banquet, so there's a high probability that nothing will go wrong during the event. Of course, I can't guarantee that nothing will happen."

This aligns with He Ao's guess; it seems that Hai Xi's troubles stem from certain 'big shots' at the dinner party.

After a moment's thought, He Ao nodded slightly, "Deal!"

Seeing He Ao nod, Hai Xi breathed a sigh of relief. She was the one who held what He Ao needed, yet she was the one who kept giving in.

However, He's caution undoubtedly improved reliability.

"I hope we can cooperate happily."

She looked at He Ao and smiled.

"I hope so,"

He Ao placed his suitcase on the desk. "When does the dinner start?"

"Seven o'clock in the evening,"

Hai Xi looked at

He Ao's actions indicated, "However, we need to prepare to depart at five o'clock this afternoon."

He Ao raised his hand and glanced at the time on his bracelet; it was 12:10 PM.

Then he looked up at Haixi and said, "I have something to do this afternoon, I'll be back before five o'clock."

He then released the suitcase in his hand, saying, "Let's leave this here for now."
