Chapter 44 – “Looking for me?”
If Ye Hao chose to release the hostages, then the Court of Judgment would be waiting for him. If he didn’t release them, then he would die immediately.
He looked up at the young man’s calm eyes, and had no doubt that if he dared to disobey, he would be tortured badly.
The seemingly weak silk flower is actually a terrifying man-eating plant!
Finally, after Wen Bei tied the remaining few people together, he led Ye Hao forward like a dog.
Only with members of the auction house leading the way could the rules of space interference be ignored.
The moment he walked out, Wen Bei heard the several people behind him sobbing in happiness.
He pretended not to notice and remained silent.
The underground auction had come to an end. Despite Ye Hao’s bloodshot look, Wen Bei took his pager and calmly contacted CaptainLan to report the location.
However, the one who arrived faster was not Captain Lan, rather it was Huang Qian. She looked at the Rabbit Butler in shock, not knowing why he had appeared in the base, but she was very discerning and did not ask.
Instead, she asked him about Qiu Tin’s whereabouts.
Huang Qian was very concerned: “How could he leave you alone?”
What an unqualified boyfriend!
Wenbei: “…”
Huang Qian had really misunderstood something.
Before he could speak, a familiar magnetic voice came from behind him.
”Looking for me?”
Wen Bei turned around suddenly and found that Qiu Tin had returned to his original appearance at some point. That handsome face, which seemed to be carefully carved by God, still had an indifferent expression, which was both good and evil.
Wen Bei blinked blankly and subconsciously wanted to reach out and touch upwards.
But someone was one step faster than him. Qiu Tin stretched out his hand and covered the furry cat ears, smiling: “Don’t worry, it’s still there.”
Wen Bei’s eyes widened in surprise. Even though his eyes had changed under the disguise, he still looked inexplicably cute and naive.
His ear was touched again without warning. The sensitivity of the new organ was far beyond his imagination. Wen Bei almost couldn’t help but groan. His waist softened for a moment, but he quickly straightened it with pretended calmness.
He angrily waved away the man’s evil hand, and even his furry cat ears seemed to explode a little, like two small dandelions.
Qiu Tin chuckled and didn’t expose him.
Wen Bei was a little depressed. He didn’t understand why the person in front of him recovered so quickly even though they were both deformed.
Whenever he was unhappy, his face would become very serious. He believed it made him appear very fierce, but he didn’t realize how cute the cat ears on his head looked when they shook.
Wen Bei: “Where did you go just now?”
Qiu Tin took out a brand new crystal card: “Have you forgotten that you sold yourself for 10,000 crystals?”
That crystal card in his hand contained 10,000 crystals.
He had actually just followed the staff to collect the amount he had earned by selling Wen Bei.
Huang Qian covered her face and guessed the reason. She felt that Wen Bei would definitely be angry.
She secretly glanced at Wen Bei beside her, and unexpectedly, after being stunned for a moment, an expression of… approval gradually appeared on his face.
Wen Bei took the crystal card that he got from selling himself: “I am really valuable.”
His mood improved instantly.
So, he was that easy to appease?
Huang Qian was stunned for a moment, and her expression became dull.
She seemed to know why the two people were so inexplicably compatible.
The circuits of thought are always very unique.
While they were talking, the Lawful Army led by Captain Lan finally arrived and apprehended the criminals red-handed.
Ye Hao was unable to struggle and could only kneel down and beg for mercy while crying.
The hostages who were brought in through various illegal means and treated as commodities were also comforted and released as soon as possible.
All the ‘guests’ in the auction house who had not had time to leave were also captured.
Captain Lan quickly found the person who had successfully infiltrated the enemy and contacted him for help. He did not recognize Wen Bei under the latter’s disguise, but he recognized Qiu Tin, whom he had only met once.
Wen Bei explained why he had changed his appearance. Apparently, Captain Lan also knew that there was a polluter in Huang Qian’s guild who could help people change their appearance, as a result Wen Bei’s explanation was quickly accepted.
He was about to say something when he turned around and saw the rabbit butler standing beside him with a plate of dumplings and treating himself as a decoration. The expression on his face suddenly became very interesting.
Wen Bei looked back at the Rabbit Butler. He had no intention of deceiving Captain Lan that it was his special ability. After all, he knew that he was just an ordinary person.
Wen Bei: “Do you know him?”
Captain Lan looked up at him with a complicated expression: “This is the rabbit from the legendary magical hotel.”
Wen Bei didn’t expect that he knew about it so clearly.
Captain Lan rubbed his forehead and asked, “Who are you?”
His face was so shocked that the elegance disappeared, leaving only anxiety.
The Rabbit Butler looked at the stupid human in front of him, with contempt in his red eyes: “This is the owner of our hotel!”
Those words hit like a bolt of thunder out of the blue.
Captain Lan was so blown up that he seemed to have lost his composure. If he hadn’t retained a bit of rationality, he would have rushed up and grabbed Wen Bei.
Although he did not do so, his eyes were still naked and terrifying, as if he was looking at an extinct creature that had miraculously come back to life from the dead, while being a fanatical zoologist.
Wen Bei couldn’t stand the feeling of being stared at like that: “Actually, I wanted to meet the leader of the base to discuss this matter again.”
It was also his original intention for coming to the underground auction house.
It was not for the sake of justice or to save the suffering people, but rather for the purpose of making his existence noticeable.
An ordinary person couldn’t meet the leader of the base, but if the same person had helped to catch a serial killer polluter in the base and also destroy the largest human trafficking market that had troubled the Lawful Army for two or three years, then his status was completely different.
If such a person asked for a meeting with the leader of the base, his request would most likely be approved.
Wen Bei glanced at the Rabbit Butler and didn’t expect it to be that useful. Just after it appeared for a moment, Captain Lan firmly believed it.
He was still planning how to cooperate with Huang Qian and others to prove his identity and gain the trust of the base leader.
Wen Bei twitched his lips, and suddenly understood why those chain stores from before the apocalypse always had their own mascots.
The Rabbit Butler had become the most popular mascot of the Hotel.
Captain Lan looked Wen Bei up and down, his throat felt dry, and his voice was a little unsteady: “As soon as we learned of the existence of the Hotel, we sent out people to confirm it, and they only returned yesterday to report back.”
Wen Bei smiled and admitted openly, “Then you are very fast, and the information your people brought back is also very accurate.”
Huang Qian shrugged: “Many forces have already inquired about it. Your store must be very busy recently.”
The Rabbit Butler nodded and raised the dumpling soup in his furry paws to indicate that he was suddenly summoned when he was in the middle of his work.
It stamped its feet in dissatisfaction, seeming a little unhappy about leaving the comfortable hotel.
Captain Lan didn’t even know how to treat Wen Bei. Ever since the moment Wen Bei’s identity was exposed, his mind had been filled with confusion. The only thing he was sure of was that he must not offend him.
He began to reflect on the details of his interactions with Wen Bei after they met, to make sure that he had not been rude in any way.
Wen Bei: “You don’t have to be so nervous. If possible, I would like to ask you to take me to meet the leader of this base.”
Captain Lan: “Of course.”
Even if Wen Bei didn’t say it, he would find a way to let the two meet.
It is the only way discovered to reduce pollution in the past five years of the apocalypse.
The research institute had spent countless efforts and resources, and the only solution they came up with was to build an outer cover for the base to isolate most of the pollution. However, pollution is everywhere. It exists in the air, and as long as you breathe, you would be polluted.
Captain Lan looked at Wen Bei as if he was a savior.
Huang Qian expressed her full understanding, saying that she felt the same way when she first went to the Hotel.
Captain Lan looked at the dumpling soup that the Rabbit Butler was holding: “Is this the food of the Hotel?”
Having not witnessed it with his own eyes, he still found it somewhat unbelievable.
The first group of people sent out by the base actually brought back some food from the Hotel, but given his level, he couldn’t access it for the time being.
The foods were immediately sent to the research institute for research as they were procured.
The dumpling soup had lost its initial warmth, but the aroma is still there, making people want to swallow.
Wen Bei: “Well, if you need it, I can give it to you first, but there is a prerequisite.”
Captain Lan was so nervous that his palms were sweating. “What?”
“You have to pay.”
…
After his identity was revealed, Wen Bei once again became an unfathomable and powerful person in the eyes of those who knew the truth.
With his current identity, there was no way that Captain Lan would let him continue to sleep in the simple guesthouse.
Wen Bei lifted the curtain of the French window. There was no one underneath. The fake green belt in the community also looked a bit peaceful before the end of the world.
Only he himself knew how many people were hiding underneath.
They were all sent by the base.
They knew too little about Wen Bei and the Hotel. The only thing they were sure of was that they had to monitor him without angering him, and more importantly, protect him.
The side of the base where he was now was the side where all the senior personnel lived. It was the center of the base and also the safest place if the base was attacked.
Huang Qian’s home is nearby.
Qiu Tin came up from behind him, shirtless after taking a shower. The young man exuded a cool aura, with a handsome face under his messy hair, and a lazy look: “Do you care about those people?”
An unknown light flashed in his eyes, as if as long as Wen Bei nodded, he would go out and kill those people in the dark.
