Chapter 207: A Rare Talent (First Update) After all, in terms of reputation, the entire Northern Chen Empire knows that Yun Nvluo is Quan Yuxun's top secretary!
These nobles, their hearts are truly full of tricks and darkness...
Xia Chujian sighed inwardly, becoming even more wary of staying away from these people.
"Young Master, everything is arranged, we can leave now." Quan Yuxun's bodyguard leader walked over and requested.
Quan Yuxun said to Xia Chujian, "Take off your Night Suit."
Xia Chujian blinked, thinking he was going to take it back so soon. She thought it was a consumable item and was planning to secretly keep it...
But now that he wanted it back, Xia Chujian naturally took it off and gave it to him.
Then Quan Yuxun also took off his Night Suit, which was as dirty as if he had rolled in the mud.
Next, all the bodyguards took off their Night Suits.
They piled all the Night Suits together.
One of the bodyguards poured some liquid on the pile of Night Suits and lit it on fire.
The Night Suits blazed fiercely, illuminating their way out.
Xia Chujian: "..."
Quan Yuxun led Xia Chujian out together.
In the spacious pipeline, there were now neat and uniform footsteps, making it sound even more eerie.
They emerged from the pipeline at two in the morning.
At the entrance of the pipeline, Xia Chujian also saw the Flying Vehicle they had arrived in.
Just as she was about to get on, Quan Yuxun grabbed her.
Xia Chujian had to stop and looked at Quan Yuxun in confusion.
Quan Yuxun said, "We're not taking this one, there's a new one over there."
Xia Chujian: "..."
So the truly rich really do treat Flying Vehicles as disposable items.
Poverty not only limits my imagination, but also limits my understanding.
Quan Yuxun didn't explain, and led Xia Chujian towards the new Flying Vehicle.
The moonlight was now blindingly bright, and the colors of the buildings were even more dark and green, as if they had experienced great changes and were about to turn to dust.
Xia Chujian wasn't sentimental; instead, she became happy.
Because she finally had a Controllable Nuclear Fusion generator! Although it was a micro model, even a micro model was overkill for her small plot of land.
Quan Yuxun looked back at this Nothing Lane in South 404 District, sighed, and then walked with Xia Chujian into the newly arrived Flying Vehicle parked not far away.
Xia Chujian said, "Why are we taking a new one? Did the previous one break down?"
She even secretly wondered if she could start a Flying Vehicle "scrap recycling" business with Quan Yuxun...
Quan Yuxun glanced at her, seeming to understand what she was thinking, and said with a smile, "The Flying Vehicle we came in was captured by many surveillance cameras in Mulan City, so it has to be destroyed."
Xia Chujian: "..."
She hadn't expected that to be the reason.
Were they going to blow up this place together? Truly a grand gesture...
She asked curiously, "But I heard that Flying Vehicles have their own identification, if they were photographed, can't they trace it back to your Quan Family through the Flying Vehicle's identification?"
Quan Yuxun said with a smile, "When did I say that the Flying Vehicle's identification belonged to the Quan Family?"
"It doesn't?"
"Of course not. It's a Flying Vehicle that was reported stolen a long time ago, and it wasn't the Quan Family who reported it."
Xia Chujian clicked her tongue, "The hearts of those who play politics are indeed dirty."
Quan Yuxun took this sentence as a compliment, and added, "After we go back, this Flying Vehicle will also be destroyed."
One operation, and they've already wasted two Flying Vehicles.
Xia Chujian was already numb.
...
This new Flying Vehicle stealthily ascended and quickly left Mulan City's South District.
Five minutes later, they were already flying south over the Royal Plantation on the North Side of Mulan City.
At the same moment, to their North Side, within Mulan City's South District, a deafening roar suddenly erupted.
Then, a massive mushroom cloud billowed up, flashing momentarily in a city-illuminating white light.
The Mulan City Special Security Bureau branch and the Punishment Department's armed helicopters immediately took off, heading to the South District to investigate.
They arrived on the scene five minutes later and discovered, in unison, that South 404 District Nothing Lane, which the Beichen Empire had designated as a Level One restricted area, had been completely reduced to dust in the past five minutes.
The Special Security Bureau branch and the Punishment Department's survey personnel were using different devices to report their instrument readings to their superiors.
The Special Security Bureau had excellent equipment and highly qualified personnel, so their report was very detailed.
[Special Security Bureau Branch]: "Reporting, Captain, at 2:05 AM, a high-energy explosion occurred in South 404 District Nothing Lane. The entire Level One restricted area has been physically erased. Instrument readings indicate an explosive yield of 53,471 Trinitrotoluene Energy Units, resulting in irreparable and catastrophic damage to the site, creating a rectangular crater 1,578 meters long and 532 meters wide. Instrument readings detected no biological or natural energy, determining that no living organisms survived, including microorganisms."
The Mulan City Punishment Department did not have as many sophisticated instruments, and the quality of their staff was naturally not comparable to the Special Security Bureau, so their report was much simpler, and their measurements were very general.
[Mulan City Punishment Department]: "Reporting, Chief, South 404 District Nothing Lane has just been destroyed by an explosion with an estimated yield of 30,000 to 50,000 Trinitrotoluene Energy Units. A rectangular crater over 1,000 meters long and 500 meters wide has been formed."
Huo Yushen was awakened in the early hours of the morning and listened to the report from the Mulan City branch personnel.
His eyes flickered slightly: "...Send me the exact coordinates."
After receiving the coordinates, he piloted a Small Combat Aircraft from the Bat-style Fighter Jet's cabin, heading straight for the airspace above South 404 District Nothing Lane in Mulan City.
At this time, the place that had once been designated as a Level One restricted area by the Beichen Empire no longer existed geographically.
Apart from a sunken crater, the soil inside had turned a charred black, and in some places, there was even crystallization or vitrification.
These were soil phenomena that only occurred after a very large explosion.
Once crystallization or vitrification occurred, the soil here was considered useless.
Whatever energy residue might have existed here would no longer exist.
Huo Yushen slightly curved his lips, a hint of almost imperceptible sarcasm flashing in his eyes.
His expression remained cold and stern as he quickly issued an order: "Investigate. Within twenty-four hours, I want to know what happened here in the past twenty-four hours."
"Yes, Chief."
...
Just as Huo Yushen was about to return in the Small Flying Vehicle, the Quantum Optical Brain received a video call request from Quan Yuxun.
It was still a video call request encrypted with the highest level of quantum entanglement.
This meant that neither party could record the video, and they could communicate instantly without going through the Star Network.
This type of call required a very high-performance Quantum Optical Brain. Most Quantum Optical Brains on the market could not achieve quantum entanglement calls without going through the Star Network.
Quan Yuxun certainly had this high-performance Quantum Optical Brain, and so did Huo Yushen.
This usage was very energy-intensive, and the energy consumption depended on the distance between the two parties.
If they were very far apart, even on another planet, the Quantum Optical Brain would basically be scrapped after this type of call because the quantum chip would be used to its limit, and its lifespan would be over.
Fortunately, Huo Yushen and Quan Yuxun were not far apart. This call would not scrap their Quantum Optical Brains.
Huo Yushen paused for a second and accepted the invitation.
Quan Yuxun's avatar quickly appeared on Huo Yushen's virtual display screen.
The monitoring camera and recording equipment on Huo Yushen's Flying Vehicle had been broken for a long time, and he had not bothered to repair them.
His subordinates would not dare to inspect his dedicated Flying Vehicle.
Therefore, it was very safe to have video calls with people here.
Huo Yushen looked at Quan Yuxun's avatar and realized that Quan Yuxun was also inside a Flying Vehicle.
Moreover, from the images Quan Yuxun displayed, one could vaguely make out a figure wearing a helmet, goggles, and a self-heating mask, dressed in a slightly familiar coat.
Huo Yushen narrowed his eyes and initiated a video call.
However, he used a virtual background, not wanting Quan Yuxun to know his location.
Quan Yuxun was piloting the Flying Vehicle himself, with Xia Chujian in the co-pilot seat.
He had deliberately initiated the video call at this time.
And he had enabled quantum entanglement encryption.
Xia Chujian couldn't hear what he was saying, nor could she see who he was talking to.
But Huo Yushen could faintly see Xia Chujian's figure sitting next to him.
Quan Yuxun surmised that Xia Chujian would definitely report this matter to Huo Yushen. To prevent Huo Yushen from thinking he had ulterior motives, Quan Yuxun revealed Xia Chujian beforehand, indicating he had nothing to hide.
However, although Huo Yushen saw through it, he didn't expose him, merely saying, "Chief Quan is looking for me at this hour. Is there something you need?"
Quan Yuxun, at this moment, parked his Flying Vehicle outside Mulan City, above the Royal Plantation, and said with a smile, "Inspector Huo has undoubtedly received a report about the explosion in South 404 District Nothing Lane."
Huo Yushen remained noncommittal, saying coldly, "Chief Quan also wants to report your actions tonight to me?"
Since Quan Yuxun had taken the initiative to discuss this matter with him, the explosion in South 404 District Nothing Lane was, in all likelihood, Quan Yuxun's doing.
Although Huo Yushen had only been in his post at the Special Security Bureau for a year, he was not at all unfamiliar with the ways of these Nobles.
Quan Yuxun maintained his amiable smile, saying with elegance, "Report is too formal, but a return is genuine. We are friends, no need to be so formal. It's just that Inspector Huo helped my Quan Family so much last time, it would be truly inexcusable not to reciprocate. So Inspector Huo doesn't need to worry about that top-secret area exploding. Everything inside, whether known or unknown, has been reduced to dust and ceased to exist. You can ask your employees for the specific details."
Huo Yushen raised an eyebrow: "My employees? Do I have any employees cooperating with Chief Quan?"
Quan Yuxun: "..."
Oops, forgot about that.
His smile remained unchanged as he said, "It seems your Special Security Bureau's professional development for employees is lacking. However, ignorance is no excuse, Inspector Huo can handle it at your discretion. Let me say the unpleasant things first. If Inspector Huo fires this employee because of this matter, please be sure to notify me. My Quan Family must hire them with a high salary. Talent is rare, talent is rare indeed..."
Huo Yushen's expression didn't change, as cold as ever: "We at the Special Security Bureau don't have such a thing as firing, disappointing Chief Quan."
"Is that so? That's indeed a pity." Quan Yuxun slowly smiled and ended the video call.
Xia Chujian had no idea what Quan Yuxun had said to Huo Yushen. She didn't even know that Quan Yuxun had been talking to Huo Yushen just now.
She thought he was contacting people from the Quan Family.
Xia Chujian simply sat to the side, holding her ultra-small Controllable Nuclear Fusion generator, looking at it like a cute little baby, with a doting smile on her face.
Quan Yuxun said, "We have to change Flying Vehicle now."
He piloted the Flying Vehicle and parked it in a dense forest next to the Plantation.
Xia Chujian: "..."
So tiring.
Destroying two Flying Vehicles in one night, it's really hard for others to investigate what these Nobles want to do...
Xia Chujian and Quan Yuxun got out of the Flying Vehicle together.
Before long, Quan Yuxun's two Gene Evolvers bodyguards, wearing Night Suits, descended from the sky, taking them to another large Flying Vehicle hovering in mid-air.
Seeing them changing back and forth, Xia Chujian said anxiously, "Why don't you just let me go back myself..."
Once these people were gone, she could activate her Shao Siming Black Silver Mecha, run at full speed, and be home in ten minutes.
But Quan Yuxun said, "Don't worry, it's not even four in the morning yet."
This was the time stipulated in her mission contract with Quan Yuxun.
Xia Chujian had no choice but to close her eyes and pretend to sleep in Quan Yuxun's Flying Vehicle.
Fortunately, Quan Yuxun didn't make her wait until four in the morning.
This is the first update. There will be a large chapter update at one o'clock in the afternoon, including two bonus chapters for April's monthly tickets.
