“Sir, your food delivery.”
“I… didn’t order it… Oh, thanks.”
Two minutes later. “Sir, wrong delivery. Please return it back to me.”
“I’ve already ea...
As soon as Xia Tianqiong stepped into the gate of the Administration Bureau, he immediately attracted countless gazes.
Everyone was curious whether he had found Guo Zhan or killed him.
No one dared to step forward and ask, except for the bespectacled man and his three teammates, who eagerly came over.
"Dude, you're back so soon? Did you find Guo Zhan?"
This person is far too overly familiar.
But as the saying goes, you can't hit a smiling face, so Xia Tianqiong didn't want to drive him away and replied calmly, "Of course I found it."
Where is that person?
"He had urgent business to attend to and went to be reincarnated."
Did they go to be reincarnated?
There were many ghost hunters and bureau staff nearby, and they were all stunned when they heard this.
They then realized that Guo Zhan must have been killed by him.
The bespectacled man paused for a moment, then grinned and said, "Hey buddy, need some teammates? What do you think of us?"
Xia Tianqiong was getting impatient. "I told you I wouldn't join any team."
"It's not about you joining our team, it's about our team joining you and following you from now on. How about it? Take us in?"
"..."
What's the difference?
Xia Tianqiong felt that this person was out of his mind and decided not to pay any more attention to him.
Just then, Secretary Liu came over and asked him to go to Director Chen's office.
No sooner had he left than the people around him started talking about it.
Some people thought he would be reprimanded or even punished by the bureau chief, since murder is a very serious matter.
Some people think the bureau chief won't do anything to him, after all, he's very powerful and can even extend people's lifespan. No one would want to offend him.
Xia Tianqiong was called to the director's office, but it wasn't anything serious.
Chen Qiao first inquired about Guo Zhan's situation, and he answered truthfully. Chen Qiao did not blame him, but only advised him to calm down.
In the future, if something like this happens again, hand it over to the management bureau. It's wrong to commit suicide privately.
In short, it was like an elder advising a younger person, nagging on and on, but without punishing him or even saying a harsh word.
Xia Tianqiong hummed and nodded in agreement, appearing very obedient.
As for how much he actually listened to, that's hard to say.
He didn't tell Director Chen about the Liu family's affair. After all, the Liu family's relationship with the authorities was rather complicated, and it was better not to let them know.
After leaving the director's office, Xia Tianqiong went to the information department, intending to exchange for some strange information.
"You've come at just the right time. Please have a seat. Here's some freshly brewed Longjing tea."
When Minister Liu from the Information Department met Xia Tianqiong, he was unusually enthusiastic and almost addressed him as a brother.
After inquiring about his purpose, he explained the conditions for redeeming points to Xia Tianqiong in detail.
The Bureau's database contains information related to the supernatural from ancient times to the present, including supernatural artifacts, strange objects, and information about several ancient families.
This information is divided into three levels, and corresponding permissions are required to redeem it.
Ordinary civilian ghost hunters can automatically obtain basic access by registering with the Administration Bureau and completing ten tasks, and can use points to exchange for corresponding information.
Complete fifty tasks and accumulate over five hundred points to obtain intermediate privileges.
To obtain advanced privileges, one must complete 500 tasks, accumulate over 5,000 points, and undergo review and approval by the Administration Bureau.
Xia Tianqiong is a special case; the Administration directly granted him intermediate-level access, allowing him to exchange for significantly more information than other Ghost Hunters.
However, he was curious as to why the official authority set the advanced permissions to be so high, significantly higher than the intermediate permissions, and why a meeting was required for review.
What are they reviewing? Their character, perhaps?
Minister Liu also provided an explanation for this.
He said that some information is too bizarre and may overturn people's cognition and values, and may plunge people into despair, so it should be handled with extreme caution and should not be easily spread.
Xia Tianqiong roughly guessed what it was, but didn't ask any further questions. She then used her points to exchange for some information.
The Administration's database is located on the official internal network and is not connected to the external network; it can only be accessed using the Information Department's computer.
Much of the information only records the eerie characteristics, appearance, and methods of harming people, without providing a solution. This type of information is relatively cheap, costing only 2 to 8 points per piece, depending on the level of eeriness.
There is also information containing methods to break the death rule, but this information is more expensive, costing at least 20 points.
In addition, information about various ancient families is also available, but only in brief; detailed information is kept secret by the authorities, who say it involves privacy and should not be made public.
Xia Tianqiong was a little disappointed; he wanted to see more information about the Liu family.
In addition, there are some miscellaneous anecdotes related to the supernatural, the authenticity of which cannot be determined. These are relatively inexpensive, costing only one or two points.
Xia Tianqiong thought for a moment. Wild Ghosts and Fierce Ghosts no longer posed any threat to him, so there was no need to exchange for them. If he wanted to exchange, he would exchange for information on Ghosts of Evil or higher.
In addition, he specifically searched for "red-clad courtesan" in the database, and to his surprise, he actually found it.
This is a powerful and mysterious technique known to the Liu family. It's good to learn about it beforehand, because you never know when you might encounter it.
Xia Tianqiong had a total of over two thousand points, and in one go, she redeemed more than two hundred strange messages.
Fearing he might forget, he summoned Huang Yu.
Their memories are far superior to those of humans; they all possess photographic memory.
As evening approached, Xia Tianqiong left the Information Department and took Huang Yu to a restaurant for dinner.
Along the way, everyone who saw him would greet him or nod in acknowledgment, showing respect and courtesy.
It's as if he's the leader.
Huang Yu, linking arms with Xia Tianqiong, said with pride, "Boss, you're famous now!"
