Xu Shi was actually a little surprised by what happened.

The two-pronged approach of "increasing the entropy of evil thoughts" and "implanting the will to be victimized" would definitely have an effect greater than the sum of its parts, but he did not expect the effect to be this good.

He almost drove the little assassin girl crazy... Of course, this was also because he really went too far with Lin Yue. Wasn't Ye Shanshan in the same situation? Compared to her, she was much better off.

But that won't do; you have to hold on.

So Chairman Xu didn't mind helping her out of kindness; he couldn't let her really get into trouble because of something like this.

However, this method still has some drawbacks.

As long as Lin Yue can distinguish between reality and dreams, there will naturally be no problem.

But if she can't tell the difference, that's another matter.

Or perhaps, once a certain point is reached, whether or not one can distinguish between them becomes meaningless.

so.

Go for it, little sister who wants to beat me up.

Xu Shi silently encouraged her before cutting off contact with Lin Xing and then turning to offer his condolences to the victim, Mr. Ding Jun.

"Chief Ding, are you alright?"

"...Chairman Xu, your men really want to kill me."

Ding Jun responded irritably, "Even if you know it's an act, nobody's happy to have a knife to their throat."

Besides, what kind of person am I? Playing house with two young girls, no, even with a cyborg?

Rich people really know how to have fun.

"How could that be? We agreed it was just acting."

Xu Shi chuckled and said, "Just follow the agreement from now on... If she really clashes with you, you don't have to give in to her too much."

How could we possibly let her have a smooth journey? Only through experience can one grow.

Sigh, I really put a lot of thought into this.

"I understand, Chairman Xu."

Ding Jun sighed, "But in that case, my business will inevitably suffer losses..."

"How about I give you another batch of 'twin' chips?"

Xu Shi shut him up with a condition he couldn't refuse.

"If that's the case, then I don't care."

Ding Jun readily agreed.

During the last raid on the "Shark Tooth" warehouse, Xu Shi had given him some chips, and he had already witnessed just how amazing those things were.

Being able to equip himself with this item would further enhance his strength.

So he wisely stopped the topic. In exchange for half of District Six, it wasn't really a bad deal.

Others who want to switch haven't even had the chance yet.

only.

"Speaking of which, about 'Dragon City'..."

He was still somewhat wary of the overlord of Sin City looming over him, especially since he was caught between two sides and his situation was still very dangerous.

"Don't worry, with me here, Long Tianding won't dare to do anything to you for the time being."

Xu Shi reassured him, "Just do your own thing."

"...Okay, sure."

Hearing him say that, Ding Jun felt a little more at ease.

"By the way, do you have any news from Shenhe?"

Xu Shi turned his head and asked about something else.

"not yet."

Ding Jun said regretfully, "I've been having the brothers search, but we haven't seen a single ghost."

To be honest, his grudges with Shen He were no less than those with Xu Shi. Even if Xu Shi didn't say anything, he would still want to find that little bastard and skin him alive.

But after all these days, they have gained nothing, not even the slightest clue.

"Then I'll have to trouble Chief Ding to put in more effort."

Xu Shi said jokingly, seemingly not caring much.

"Don't worry, Chairman Xu, I will definitely find a way to find him!"

Upon hearing this, Ding Jun immediately made a solemn promise.

But after hanging up the call, he also had a bit of a headache.

His current plan is naturally to become increasingly entangled with Xu Shi, since Xu Shi is a wealthy and powerful man who will genuinely provide equipment.

But he wanted more than that. If he could get rid of his identity as a Sin City resident through the other party, that would be a great thing.

To achieve this, he had to demonstrate his value, not just by taking over the Sixth District. If he didn't do something truly significant, he would forever remain just a dog that could be easily replaced by the other side.

"I want to improve too..."

Ding Jun sighed, inwardly cursing Shen He.

However, this was just him worrying unnecessarily; Xu Shi was actually not as harsh as he thought.

He has invested a considerable amount in the "Long Knife Party," and naturally, he wants to nurture them well.

Moreover, compared to the other three gangs, Ding Jun was the most honest of the bunch, and he felt more at ease using someone who obeyed him.

As for the fact that the other party couldn't find Chenhe, it was actually within his expectations.

It's the main character after all; even a skinny camel is bigger than a horse. It's not that easy for you to find one.

Moreover, he knew in his heart that although he was now a bachelor, sinking into the river was by no means the end of his life.

At least he still has one way out.

"Ah...doesn't Shenhe have a younger sister?"

Xu Shi vaguely remembered that when "Tianhe" was destroyed, Shen He was not the only one who escaped; his sister, Shen Qin, also survived.

However, he didn't know much about Shen Qin. In the original work, when she first appeared, he, the villain, was already on the verge of death, so he naturally had very little information to glean from the plot.

But there are two things he still remembers.

First, Shen Qin is a severe case of brother-obsessed.

Second, Shen Qin's faction is unique; it is not located within the City of Night Sin, but rather deep within the Birch Gold Plain outside the city.
