The person in charge's expression shifted between light and dark.
After a long while, he took a picture of the body and sent it to Lu Yunzhao.
[Task Completed]
Lu Yunzhao zoomed in on the image, examined the details, and confirmed that the body belonged to Xia Chuhe.
After examining every detail of the body, Lu Yunzhao finally confirmed that it was Xia Chuhe.
However, this answer did not reassure Lu Yunzhao.
It's too easy.
Xia Chuhe died too easily.
Although her plan was meticulous and every step was flawless, and Xia Chuhe did indeed step into the death trap and face the predetermined fate as she had envisioned, the ease with which she succeeded still left Lu Yunzhao with a strong sense of unreality.
"Remember this: kill all outsiders who have entered the Heavenly God Temple in the last three months," Lu Yunzhao emphasized to the person in charge again.
Person in charge: [Received]
The person in charge let out a long sigh, leaned back in his leather chair, and made a phone call to the factory manager: "Have all the people recruited in the past two days been settled in?"
"Just like before, everything has been allocated."
"Yes, everyone who comes in the last three months will need to have their photo taken. Don't forget."
"I will never forget, I will never forget. It's such a small matter, there's no need for you to keep thinking about it."
"This is no small matter; we must treat it as a major issue," the person in charge said seriously.
"Of course, of course, I'll send you the photos of the people from the past two days right away."
After hanging up the phone and receiving the photos, the person in charge pinched the bridge of his nose and anonymously posted a transaction order on the Tianya forum.
[If you know how to use Photoshop, please come in. Send me your work via private message and I'll discuss the price.]
The person in charge breathed a sigh of relief. There was no other way; the factory couldn't be shut down, and the demands of his superiors had to be met.
There's no choice but to find a way to circumvent the policies from above.
The Tianya Forum is something created by lower-level people. More than one person in charge has reported it to higher-ups, but they haven't taken it seriously, and the people below can't do anything about it.
But I have to say, this forum is really useful.
...
The soul of the winter-destroying seedling, sensing danger and before its skin could be pierced, immediately withdrew and returned to the safe house at the speed of light.
Er Ya, who appeared to be resting with her eyes closed but was actually guarding the real body, suddenly opened her eyes, revealing a fierce glint.
Upon seeing the awakened Dong Huimiao, she concealed the fierce glint in her eyes and asked with a smile, "Sister Dong, you're back so early?"
"You brat, did you do this on purpose? Don't you understand what it means that I came back early?" Dong Huimiao pointed to the sky and cursed angrily, "I just arrived at the Temple of the Heavenly Saint and I died in one fell swoop. That treacherous Xia Chuhe, she deliberately chose the Temple of the Heavenly Saint. She was targeted early on, someone wanted to kill her, and she actually used me as a scapegoat."
Er Ya couldn't help but laugh, her eyes narrowing into slits: "Didn't Lord Xia remind you not to use her face? But you wouldn't listen."
"Are you my Er Ya, or Lord Xia's Er Ya? Whose side are you on? Huh? Why are you speaking up for her? No! You're not allowed to speak up for her!"
"Alright, alright, I misspoke. Lord Xia is a treacherous villain who tricked our Sister Dong." Er Ya still smiled.
Dong Huimiao frowned. Although Er Ya's words were all in her favor, something still felt off.
Unable to find fault with Er Ya's words, Dong Huimiao grumbled angrily, holding back her resentment. She decided to study the information Xia Chuhe had sent her again.
This time, she learned her lesson.
When faced with uncertain information, assume you don't know and approach it with the mindset of a complete bystander. Anyway, she has a huge advantage: as long as she runs fast enough, she can try again and again.
Just like in a game, you can reload a save and start over, making you invincible!
On his first visit to the Temple of Heaven, Dong Huimiao confirmed at least one piece of information—Xia Chuhe's face was indeed not to be used!
Dong Huimiao rubbed his face, feeling exhausted. The dozen or so skins he had prepared were probably not enough, and each of the skins that had been made would have its appearance altered to resemble a completely different person.
...
Colored Stone Base.
Qian Rui, the owner of the weapons shop across from Sister Li's food shop, looked at the new food shop owner's perfunctory service and muttered, "With this attitude, it probably won't be long before the owner changes again."
Qian Rui was keeping track of the accounts in his hands, occasionally glancing up at the doorway.
As she pondered, her brows furrowed deeply. The profits on the books at the Black Mountain base didn't match the actual dividends...
On paper, the Black Mountain base had made a considerable profit, but the actual dividends distributed were only a pitiful few hundred points.
We haven't received any information about a famine at the Black Mountain base. Could it be that the operators are facing difficulties?
Qian Rui is the owner of a chain of weapon shops, managing weapon shops in multiple bases. She used to lead teams through dungeons, but after accumulating some points and gathering a few friends, she decided she didn't want to continue her adventurous lifestyle and started opening a shop.
Qian Rui is the major shareholder of the shops, and each of his friends has invested in one shop. There aren't many shops, only six, which is enough to support six families and still have some left over.
The owner of the weapons shop at the Black Mountain base is Zhao Yu, an old friend of many years.
In order to find out the situation at the Black Mountain base, Qian Rui invited Zhao Yu to make a phone call.
"Hello, the Indestructible Weapons Shop is at your service."
A completely unfamiliar greeting.
Where's the boss?
"I'm the boss. What can I do for you?"
Qian Rui's heart skipped a beat, and he had a bad feeling: "I'm looking for Zhao Yu."
"Oh, you're looking for the former owner of this shop? He's already sold it to me."
Qian Rui took two deep breaths: "Do you know why he sold the shop?"
"I don't know, I'm not sure..."
