Chapter 371 [(*^▽^*)]
Lin Leyou looked closely and saw a national map appear on the screen. The red dot was located in Y Province near the border. Upon seeing this, Lin Leyou's eyes narrowed slightly.
Goodness, Zhou Nanyue really knows how to find a place. She managed to get to such a far place so quietly in such a short time. It's relatively safe within the border, since there's a country behind it.
However, once you cross this border, it becomes the most chaotic place in the world. If Zhou Nanyue manages to get there, with all the gadgets he has, he might be able to make a name for himself there.
However, judging from the approximate location of this red dot, Zhou Nanyue should still be in China. He is probably worried about the chaotic environment abroad and is hiding there as a worst-case scenario. If someone is chasing him, he can escape across the border and hide in the most chaotic place.
Hiding there, even the country can't do anything about him; they can only let him live a carefree life abroad.
Lin Leyou breathed a long sigh of relief. He and Zhou Nanyue were in different places: one was in the far east by the sea, and the other was in the southwest near the border. In a way, he didn't need to worry about Zhou Nanyue causing him trouble.
Besides, he couldn't just go directly to Guo Xia and tell him that he knew where Zhou Nanyue was, could he?
Wait... isn't there also Liu Jiao? No, that's not right either. Although Liu Jiao is Zhou Nanyue's mother, Zhou Nanyue is the kind of person who only abuses his own mother. He's still on the run, so how could he contact her?
Most importantly, Zhou Nanyue didn't have Liu Jiao's contact information at all, and if she went to find Liu Jiao now, she might not get any clues that she could openly present.
Moreover... the police have probably already thoroughly investigated Zhou Nanyue's identity information. Whether it's Zhou Feng or Liu Jiao, they must have already contacted them. Why would it be my turn to ask?
Lin Leyou temporarily put aside Zhou Nanyue's matter and decided to wait and see. If Zhou Nanyue continued to target him, then it wouldn't be too late for him to cause trouble for her later.
Judging from Zhou Nanyue's appearance, he probably won't be back for several years... No, as long as he stays in China, he can never reintegrate into society. As long as Lin Leyou stays in a prosperous place, Zhou Nanyue definitely won't dare to show up.
"Phew..." Lin Leyou put away the props. "Never mind, I'll go to sleep first. I'm so tired today."
Having temporarily put aside Zhou Nanyue's matter, Lin Leyou hugged the blanket, closed her eyes, and quickly fell asleep.
Guo Xia, who had just returned to the H City headquarters in the early hours of the morning, couldn't sleep. He dragged Song Huainan out of bed and punched him twice before he was allowed to speak.
Song Huainan looked annoyed. "Speak, what exactly happened?"
Guo Xia, "You know what happened to Xue Rui, right?"
Song Huainan had been busy for several nights and went to bed early today, so she had no idea what had happened. "I don't know, tell me."
Guo Xia briefly recounted what had happened that night, focusing, of course, on the black mist with a pair of glowing, blood-red eyes that Xue Rui had mentioned.
Song Huainan's expression also turned serious. "I've never heard of this before. I guess it's been well hidden."
Guo Xia, "Why isn't it a newcomer?"
Song Huainan: "A newcomer couldn't possibly have such a good prop. Just from Xue Rui's description, I know this prop is very valuable. What else did he do?"
Guo Xia shook her head. "It seems like he was just trying to scare them, he didn't actually do anything. What do you think?"
Song Huainan breathed a sigh of relief. "At least this player knows how to abide by the law. At least he knows he can't take direct action. He's just trying to scare them and buy time so the police can arrive and he can disappear on his own."
Guo Xia, "I guess he's the type who doesn't want to be regulated and doesn't want to attract attention. I guess he won't use props too much in real life to avoid being noticed."
Song Huainan said, "Even if he didn't have any bad intentions, he still had to register."
Guo Xia sighed, "Of course I know, but they just don't want to. What can you do?"
Song Huainan: "Could it be that he didn't know he needed to register?"
Guo Xia: "I don't really think so. The other party definitely knows."
Song Huainan: "How many people are in Xue Rui's player team now?"
Guo Xia blinked, somewhat puzzled. Why was this topic suddenly brought up?
"Including him, there seem to be four now. This team doesn't have many members yet, but what about later... hmm?"
Song Huainan smiled and said, "Allowing such amateur player teams to form also includes a plan to let them discover other players and take the initiative to lead them to register."
Guo Xia: "That's true. Many players are unwilling to join the official team because they feel there are too many rules, but they feel that they are weak on their own, so they choose to join some stronger player teams."
"Although you still need to register and follow some rules, it's still much more free..."
Song Huainan: "The player who appeared today must be a pro. It would be great if we could find him as soon as possible."
Guo Xia: "This can't be forced."
Song Huainan, "Do you think there's any tool that can detect who the player is?"
Guo Xia said, "I think there probably won't be such a prop. Even if there were, I doubt we could use our current points in the real world."
Song Huainan: "Yes, let's clear the dungeon first."
Guo Xia: "The dungeon is closed, it'll be six months! These six months..."
Song Huainan said, "The vast majority of players will be very well-behaved during these six months. Those with more points will enjoy life, while those with fewer points will be able to breathe a sigh of relief and will dare not reveal their identities."
Guo Xia said, "Exposing your identity means you might face off against someone, and facing off against someone will consume items, which in turn means consuming points. Any player with a brain should prepare for the dungeon six months from now."
"This upgrade will take six months. Nobody knows what the dungeon will look like after six months. Everyone needs to save up more points to prepare for it."
Song Huainan, "You mean... is the Infinite World upgrading?"
Guo Xia said, "I hope the difficulty won't be increased too much, otherwise... it will be too unfriendly to the players."
Song Huainan, "You haven't used up too many points, have you?"
Guo Xia shook her head, "How could we possibly use points? If we want to use our points in the real world, we need to submit a report!"
It's really frustrating that I can't use my own points freely, but there's nothing I can do about it. It's one thing in dungeons, and there's no way to avoid emergencies; you have to use them when necessary. But in the real world…
Guo Xia: "Alright, alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's check on those two from before..."
Lin Leyou stayed at home for two days. During these two days, he was not idle. Instead, he sent out his mechanical spiders to monitor Xue Zhengyang and his family of three.
However... they probably knew this period was the most important, and there were absolutely no loopholes. Even Xue Qian didn't go out fooling around, but instead went to school obediently and went home after school.
Although those gangsters were arrested, they genuinely didn't know who their employer was. They were all secretly assigned the task, and without evidence, they couldn't be arrested or convicted.
Even so, Lin Leyou believed that Old Master Xue and Xue Rui were not fools.
I wonder how much money Xue Zhengyang and his gang spent this time. For people like them in the underworld, it was probably all in cash. Did they withdraw cash from the bank beforehand?
Lin Leyou shook his head. Could the police not have thought of what he could think of? They were probably already investigating. He didn't need to cause any trouble. He had originally planned to travel to many places during his six months of free time.
However, seeing Xue Rui in danger firsthand, even though Xue Rui could probably use the tools to protect himself even without his help, he still felt a bit scared.
After careful consideration, Lin Leyou decided not to go out and to stay in H Province. He could go to other places anytime, but Xue Rui's place was always in danger.
Let's wait until he takes care of Xue Zhengyang and the others. Then we'll definitely be safe, right?
Lin Leyou thought uncertainly as he fidgeted with his phone. Then he picked it up and looked at it. To his surprise, someone had sent him a message on his QQ account.
"Huh? Who is this again..."
Although he has only just come of age and hasn't been separated from his high school classmates for too long, there are still decades in between, and he has long forgotten all of them.
Even though the contact name was the other person's full name, Qian Feng, Lin Leyou stared at the name for a long time but still couldn't remember it. He clicked on it to take a look.
"Lin Leyou, Uncle Sen told me you ran away from home, is that true?"
Uncle Sen? What Uncle Sen? Oh right! His second uncle is called Lin Jiasen, which should be this Uncle Sen, but calling him Uncle Sen... still doesn't quite fit the person.
But saying he ran away from home? That's actually a relatively mild description, isn't it? Lin Jiasen probably meant that he didn't want to work and earn money, so he secretly ran away while his mother was pregnant, and he didn't want to take on the family's debts. He's extremely unfilial!
Lin Leyou's lips curled into a smile. After thinking for a moment, she replied, "Yeah, what's up?"
Qian Feng probably didn't expect Lin Leyou to admit it so easily. "You...you...I mean, your family has been talking about this everywhere, do you know that?"
Lin Leyou raised an eyebrow. So this person was still on his side?
"Let them talk. Anyway, I probably won't go back in my life, so I don't care."
Qian Feng seemed very surprised. "You're not coming back? That's ruthless! Are you making a fortune out there?"
Lin Leyou: "What kind of wealth can someone like me, a high school graduate, possibly have?"
They earned their wealth by risking their lives; otherwise, how could they have become rich? Fortunately, H City is quite far from his hometown. As long as he hides himself well, even if an old acquaintance passes by him, they might not recognize him.
Qian Feng, "So, do you work outside?"
Lin Leyou, "Is there something you need?"
It seems like Qian Feng has something on his mind; I wonder if he wants to see him.
