Chapter 103 Discovered, Tracked, Cipher, Contact!
The town outside the Firefly Forest is exceptionally prosperous; it is one of the few towns that survived the previous conflicts intact.
Tier 1 and Tier 2 have always been the most populous ranks for each race, making this area much more bustling and lively than tier 0 rabbit dungeons.
Looking at the endless stream of people and the bustling town, the cold-faced man showed little emotion.
His gaze was mostly fixed on the area where the centaurs lived not far away... The centaurs there were just like the ones on Rabbit Ben's side, law-abiding and clearly distinct from the humans around them, completely different from what he had seen elsewhere.
Soon after, someone returned to report.
"My lord, this place is just like the level 0 dungeon we just played. Except for the fact that we didn't get a perfect clear, all the speedrun records... were broken by Paradise."
The cool-faced young man calmly asked, "Who's in the amusement park?"
"boss."
The aloof young man nodded without speaking, seemingly lost in thought.
At that very moment.
The aloof woman beside him suddenly glanced in one direction and whispered, "I've found something."
"Hmm?" The aloof young man turned to look at her.
"There's an epic class that just came out of a dungeon."
The aloof woman spoke in a deep voice.
It drew the attention of everyone around.
Shen Changyuan's gaze darkened as he looked at the woman.
"Such good luck? An epic class... which one?"
"I've marked it."
After the woman finished speaking, her eyes flickered as she looked into the crowd.
The aloof young man's gaze immediately turned to the crowd, and then locked onto a tall, slender figure wearing a monk's robe.
The other person had their back to them, wearing a gray robe, but with the hood pulled low, and was heading in the direction of leaving the Firefly Forest.
"Didn't you say that the boss was hard to find? But it seems that we've found him."
The aloof young man turned his head to look at Shen Changyuan and said calmly.
Shen Changyuan remained calm and said, "An epic class doesn't necessarily mean the boss... The boss has soloed the Abyss dungeon. You've seen it all, but have you ever seen an epic class solo the Abyss dungeon?"
These words made the aloof young man frown slightly. After a moment of silence, he looked at the figure walking further and further away and said calmly, "That makes things even more interesting... another epic, and a Tier 1 one at that. Director Shen, what do you think is the probability that this person is a member of Paradise?"
"I don't know."
Shen Changyuan answered calmly.
"Let's go, follow them first, and try somewhere less crowded... Iron Fang City is a small place, but it's been quite a stir lately, so many epics?"
The aloof young man remained silent and walked away slowly.
Shen Changyuan followed behind, his right hand behind his back, and suddenly made a strange gesture.
But it only lasted for a moment before closing up, as if it had just stretched out its palm.
Among the crowd, there were assassins who had been keeping a close eye on the area, but upon seeing the gesture, they quickly turned and left.
...
"You said Director Chen told me to contact the boss?"
At the Iron Teeth City Hall, Yu Qianqiu saw the professional who had suddenly entered his office and asked with a serious expression, "What happened? Explain in detail."
The professional was a young man. He said in a low voice, "Group Five has been following Director Chen. Just now, Director Chen made a pre-arranged gesture, instructing us to proceed according to Plan B."
Yu Qianqiu's expression changed again.
Option B... So, the people who came this time really did have a problem?
Moreover, some clues have been found about the owner or the amusement park.
She took a deep breath and then whispered, "I understand... Tell Groups 5 and 6 to continue following, but not to get too close. Just keep an eye on them from a distance, and if anything seems amiss, switch people. Don't startle them."
"Yes, I know."
The young man nodded and quickly walked out.
Yu Qianqiu pondered for a moment, then opened his desk drawer, took out a cell phone, and quickly left the room.
It wasn't until I was far away from the city hall that I was able to log into the professional forum on my phone.
She typed away rapidly.
Post title.
"Imperial Jade Liquor, one hundred and eighty yuan a glass. How about it? Let me tell you..."
After posting the message, Yu Qianqiu let out a soft sigh of relief, but her expression still showed some worry.
"What strange code... I hope you'll call back soon."
She muttered to herself and waited where she was.
...
"I'm full, I'm full..."
Qin Fang put down his chopsticks, exaggeratedly rolled over on his belly, and exclaimed with a smile, "Sis, did you really just learn to cook? Your skills are amazing!"
“I’m glad you like it… You come to the yard every day, and I’ll cook for you every day… Mom has been talking about you and Xiaoyou these past few days.”
Qin Yue was mopping the floor nearby. Upon hearing this, she smiled, a strand of hair falling down, which she naturally tucked behind her ear.
Then continue mopping the floor.
Qin Fang was a little embarrassed: "It's your first time here, and I'm troubling you to clean up... Maybe I should just do it myself later."
"I used to wash all your underwear for you, why didn't you care about your sister back then?"
Qin Yue smiled upon hearing this.
"That's because he was young and didn't know any better..." Qin Fang blushed and said awkwardly.
Qin Yue just smiled and didn't answer, continuing to mop the floor.
Seeing that Qin Yue had been helping him with everything, Qin Fang felt embarrassed and got up to help tidy up as well.
Soon, the two of them had cleaned the living room relatively well. However, the other person had too much clutter in the room, and there was no other space to put it, so they could only tidy it up a bit.
"Xiao Fang, since Xiao You isn't in Tieya City right now, why don't you move back to the courtyard? There are plenty of empty rooms there."
Seeing that there was no way to continue dealing with it, Qin Yue gave up and, while washing her hands, suddenly made a suggestion.
After thinking for a moment, Qin Fang shook his head: "No, thank you... I probably won't be able to stay in Iron Fang City for long either; I'll be leaving soon."
Qin Yue paused in washing her hands, and after a moment, she whispered, "Oh right, you're a big shot now, you definitely won't be able to stay in Iron Fang City for long..."
Her mood seemed to suddenly drop.
Qin Fang was taken aback: "Sister?"
"fine."
Qin Yue smiled again. She washed her hands, turned off the water, and looked at Qin Fang with a radiant smile: "No matter where you go in the future, you must come back to the courtyard to visit when you have time."
"That's natural." Qin Fang nodded with a smile.
Qin Yue nodded, then smiled and said, "Alright then, that's all for today. I've been out for quite a while now, and I still need to help my mother when I get back, so I'll head back to the yard now. Come visit me whenever you have time."
Before Qin Fang could react, Qin Yue had already packed her things, opened the door, and smiled at Qin Fang, saying, "Well, Xiao Fang, I'll be going now."
"Oh, oh... I'll see you off."
"No need, I can see."
Qin Yue smiled, waved her hand, and turned to leave.
The door closed.
Qin Fang was a little stunned.
Qin Yue's mood was fine at first, but it seems that as soon as I mentioned that I might have to leave Iron Fang City, her mood changed suddenly... and she even said goodbye and left immediately.
Could it be Sister Yue...?
Qin Fang blinked.
That can't be right.
...I'm only fifteen years old in this life!
He was somewhat stunned.
...
After a long while, he shook his head, thinking that he had been overthinking things.
He turned his head and saw the much tidier room, smacked his lips, and went straight into his own room.
I turned on my phone as I walked.
Having nothing to do lately, Qin Fang logged into the professional forum, Shui Shui Forum... Since the last centaur invasion, the professional forum, which was usually not frequented by many people, suddenly became incredibly popular and is now the most bustling online gathering place in the Iron Fang City local area network.
I just logged in and found that the system had prompted me to post a 'special attention' message.
He was stunned for a moment, then frowned deeply.
Then open it quickly.
"Imperial Jade Liquor, one hundred and eighty yuan a glass. How about it? Let me tell you..."
Upon seeing the post title, Qin Fang frowned.
As expected, Yu Qianqiu wanted him to contact her himself.
This was the code they had agreed upon after their previous contact... After all, only Qin Fang could contact them, while Yu Qianqiu and the others couldn't reach him, which could sometimes cause delays.
Especially...
"I don't know if this visit from above is a good thing or a bad thing... If possible, please give me a way to contact you so I can inform you of any developments."
This was Yu Qianqiu's previous suggestion.
After so many interactions, Qin Fang still trusted Yu Qianqiu relatively.
But giving them a cell phone or something like that was out of the question, so after thinking it over, I came up with this forum.
Qin Fang told her to find an account with a large following, and when she wanted to contact him, she should send a special code message using that account. He would see it and call her back.
This special code had to be special enough, but it couldn't seem to have too many problems. After thinking it over, Qin Fang simply pulled out some familiar jokes from his previous life.
The famous line from the movie "A Strange Encounter While Working," which was once hailed as "distinguishing the jokes of those who have walked 500,000 miles," has become a code.
At this moment, quite a few people have already joined the thread to reply.
"Why should I tell you what to do?"
"The original poster only said half of what they meant? What do you mean by 'Imperial Jade Liquor'?"
I checked the time; it was sent half an hour ago.
Qin Fang hesitated for a moment, then went out.
And then... another lucky viewer couldn't find their phone.
Qin Fang dialed a number... but it wasn't Yu Qianqiu's previous number; it was the number he had been given later.
The two agreed that when he saw the post online, he would call the new phone number.
...It's probably to prevent being eavesdropped on.
The call was answered as soon as it was dialed.
"You finally answered."
A sigh of relief came from inside.
"What's wrong?"
"The people I told you about last time have arrived. They're currently in the Firefly Forest and seem to have made some discoveries. This message was sent personally by Director Shen. Director Shen only sends this message when he determines that the other party is likely to be detrimental to Paradise or you, and when he has already detected something... But I don't know exactly what they've discovered; you'll have to figure it out yourself."
The Firefly Forest? The visitors may be detrimental to themselves or the park, and they may have made some discoveries?
Qin Fang's mind raced, and he instantly knew who it was.
Lin Fan!
There are only three members of the amusement park in the entire Iron Teeth City right now. He and Qin Yue were having dinner together just now, so it couldn't be the two of them.
Then it can only be Lin Da, the model worker during this period.
He couldn't find the other person. The other person didn't have a liar's mask. If the other person had some kind of detection tool or something... it was very possible to be discovered if he wasn't on guard.
"I understand, thank you."
"Is there any assistance you can provide?... But something too difficult might not be possible. After all, the other party is an envoy, nominally our superior..." Yu Qianqiu asked after a moment's hesitation.
Qin Fang thought for a moment and finally said, "No need. Notifying me of this news in time has already been a great help. We will handle the rest ourselves."
"Alright... Be careful. These envoys... I don't know what rank they are. But... there's a good chance there will be a fourth-rank expert among them."
Qin Fang's expression hardened slightly: "I understand."
Qin Fang hung up the phone, crushed it with his hand, and looked out of the city.
The next moment, a mask appeared on his face, and he disappeared from the spot.
