Peace Hotel:

While Mo Lan was still studying the Red Moon Society's investigation report, someone suddenly knocked lightly on the door and then carefully pushed the door open and walked in.

She was a middle-aged woman with a smile on her face.

"Excuse me, Director Jiu, I'm the newly appointed hotel manager. You can call me Xiao Feng. I'd like to ask if you're satisfied with today's dishes? Is there anything that needs improvement?"

Manager Feng said.

Upon hearing this, Kyuuji Kyuu didn't rush to answer, but instead turned to look at Mo Lan: "What do you think?"

Upon hearing this, Manager Feng was taken aback, and immediately had a hundred and eight different guesses about Mo Lan's identity, which were quite varied.

"I?"

"Let me think..."

Mo Lan stroked his chin, then pointed at the cola chicken wings and said:

"Next time you make cola chicken wings, remember to use Coca-Cola. I'll just pour Pepsi down the toilet as toilet cleaner."

"what?"

Manager Feng was taken aback upon hearing this, then nodded repeatedly.

"No problem, sir. I've noted it down. Thank you for your valuable suggestion. I'll definitely make sure you're satisfied next time."

"As a token of my appreciation, I'll have the kitchen send you two of our new desserts that aren't on the menu yet."

Afterwards, Manager Feng, with a fawning smile, toasted both Jiujiu and Molan with a glass of wine before leaving the private room.

Given her status, she actually didn't even have the right to flatter Kyuuji Kyuu, and she was well aware of this herself.

Therefore, as a newly appointed manager, he came to make an impression and then wisely left.

Kuji Kuji, being in a high position, was already used to this process.

Mo Lan remarked with considerable emotion, "You know what, dealing with people and situations can be really quite enjoyable sometimes."

After they had eaten and drunk their fill, the two left the private room.

Mo Lan: "Thank you for your hospitality today, Director. Please remember to call me next time there's something like this."

Kyuuji smiled upon hearing this: "With your current status, staying here permanently wouldn't be a problem for you, so why would you need me?"

That's true. With Mo Lan's current status as a director, there's no restaurant in the world he can't afford to eat at.

His contract bonuses are even higher than Kujiki's theoretical salary.

Upon hearing this, Mo Lan adjusted her sunglasses and said, "That's different. If I were alone, I would actually prefer to go to the hole-in-the-wall restaurant downstairs, order a couple of dishes, and eat slowly."

"After all, the place to eat isn't the point; it's the people."

Upon hearing this, Kyuuji glanced at the nonchalant boy beside her, her emotions unfathomable yet fleeting.

He quickly reverted to his usual smile that didn't reach his eyes.

"You saved the Fujino Group's daughter this time, they'll probably be coming looking for you soon."

As soon as Kyuuji Kyu finished speaking, two figures walked out from around the corner ahead, one wearing a school uniform and the other wearing a suit.

"Huh? Senior Mo Lan!"

The girl in the school uniform looked up and saw the familiar boy in sunglasses, then exclaimed in surprise.

"What a coincidence." Mo Lan raised her hand slightly and greeted her.

The girl was Fujino Chiyo.

The young man in the suit next to Fujino Chiyo is her older brother, Fujino Seiran.

"Is he Mo Lan?" Fujino Seiran raised an eyebrow slightly.

Back when Kyushu Group was conducting its investigation, Fujino Seiran learned from her sister that a student named Mo Lan had saved everyone in the subspace.

Upon seeing Mo Lan now, his first impression of this guy was... he's quite good-looking, but seems to be a weirdo.

After all, what normal person would wear sunglasses at night? They're either weird or have some special skill.

Fujino Seiran then turned her gaze to Kyuuji Kyu, then stroked her chin, "Hmm...this person looks familiar, like I've seen her in the news before..."

I can't remember...

Never mind, I don't know them.

Fujino Seiran has never been someone who enjoys following political news.

Even within the Kyoto gaming community, he only knew of a person named Kyuuji Kyuu, but had no idea what she looked like.

He didn't even know whether the head of the Special Affairs Bureau who had killed four people in Taiping Prefecture was male or female, so he didn't recognize him at all.

Therefore, Fujino Seiran only regarded Kyuuji Kyuu as Mo Lan's friend and did not pay much attention to her.

He stepped forward, extended his hand to Mo Lan, his voice carrying a hint of arrogance and disdain.

"Let me introduce myself. My name is Fujino Seiran. Thank you for saving my sister."

"As a reward, I can decide to give you a D-grade weapon or item. If you think that's not enough, two will do. If you have any other requests, the Fujino Group will do its best to fulfill them."

"However, I must say this first: if you want to use this opportunity to have other ideas or develop a relationship with my sister, I will definitely not allow it."

He rambled on and on for a long time.

Mo Lan raised her hand and shook his hand, saying calmly, "No need for thanks. I will save Chiyo; I'm just helping Ye Hu out."

"Okay, goodbye."

After saying that, Mo Lan released her grip, turned around and left without giving Fujino Seiran even a second glance.

Mo Lan wouldn't try to curry favor with such a young master from a prestigious family; even shaking hands would be considered polite.

Kutsuji Ku watched this scene unfold and also turned and left.

Completely surprised by the cold treatment he received, Fujino Seiran frowned: "This guy is quite arrogant, daring to ignore me."

Fujino Chiyo, standing nearby, was a little angry: "Can't you be a little nicer to him? He saved my life!"

"Enough with the nagging." Fujino Seiran waved his hand dismissively.

"I'll have someone deliver two D-grade weapons to Ye Hu tomorrow, and have him pass them on to Mo Lanxing, okay?"

"Whether they want it or not, I don't care. I've already given them the things."

"Alright, I'm hungry, let's go eat. I heard this restaurant's almond tofu is delicious."

"You...!" Fujino Chiyo was furious, but she couldn't do anything about it. She could only think of telling her grandfather when she got back to Kyoto!

On the other side, Kyuuji Kyuu suddenly asked Mo Lan beside her, "Two D-grade weapons are a huge sum of money for a level 3 player. Are you just going to give them up like that?"

In the game of fate, items and equipment are far rarer than skills, because they are among the few things that can be traded.

Many players never manage to assemble a set of equipment of the same level before they die.

Mo Lan shrugged: "I just don't like that guy. Besides, I guess I'm just naturally rebellious."

To put it bluntly, Mo Lan is someone who responds better to gentle persuasion than force.

Kuzuji Kuzu suddenly chuckled softly, "Very good, I like it."

Mo Lan raised an eyebrow.

But Kuzuji Kuzu had already reached the door and turned back before getting into the car:

"Would you like me to take you home?"

"No need," Mo Lan said, raising her hand.

Kuji Kuji didn't ask any more questions and got into the car and left.

The air was exceptionally fresh after the rain.

Mo Lan took a deep breath, stepped through the puddles, quickly flagged down a taxi, and replied to messages on her way home.

Lin Youyou explained to Sally the reason for her sudden disappearance today.

Next came a greeting from John Lee.

John Lee's voiceover: "OMG!! Thank goodness you're not hurt, Mr. Mo! I heard you encountered remnants of the Red Moon Society, and I was so worried!"

For potential players like Mo Lan who have not yet fully matured, Li John's biggest worry is that their ventures will fail halfway through.

Not to mention that Mo Lan is an S-level contract holder with Giant God Company. If he really dies in the dungeon, I will definitely be held accountable.

Either the intelligence work was inadequate, or the support work was inadequate; in short, he was so anxious that he cried.

Mo Lan typed: "Don't worry, I'm not some hothouse flower. By the way, does the company have any more detailed information about the Red Moon Society?"

John Lee: "Yes, some directors. I'll organize them and send them to you."

Before long, Mo Lan received the information sent by Li John, which even included a detailed battle report from the Taiping State Special Investigation Team.

That is, Kuji Kuji's famous battle, Taiping Prefecture, where he defeated four opponents in one battle.

According to information sent by John Lee, the Red Moon Society, as the world's largest antisocial player group, has a total of seven quasi-top-level cadres scattered around the world.

Taiping Prefecture is their largest headquarters, but after the battle with Kyuji Kyu, the Red Moon Society was severely weakened.

The other cadres dared not show their faces. The only one who was still active was Chen Zhizhi, but she immediately went into hiding after completing Li Jing's finger training program.
