Chapter 1060: District-wide Search
He stretched out a hand and shook it.
Jian Yan's eyes deepened slightly and he shook his head, "I don't have that much."
"So how many do you have?"
"Three dollars," she added, "and all my belongings."
This is too little.
"Are there really only three?" the guard asked impatiently.
Jian Yan hummed, "There are indeed only three energy stones, but there are dozens of nutrient solutions. Do you want any?"
"How many dozens are there? Give me an exact number and tell me what flavors they are."
"Fifty, from the Devil series."
The guards' mouths twitched. Fifty was a lot. If they divided it among ten people, each of them could get five. That was the Devil Series...
Forget it, it’s just nutrient solution after all, so it doesn’t matter if it tastes a bit horrible.
It's not easy to make some extra money.
"Okay, give it to us. You go in. As long as you can avoid being discovered, you can stay as long as you want."
As he spoke, the guard looked her up and down and said with a smile, "Sister, I think you are quite pretty. Try to find a strong man to rely on. Maybe you can stay in Area E."
Jianyan understood what the guard meant, and she said frankly, "I did have this idea, so I wanted to go in and take a look."
"Don't forget your brothers if you stay," the guard warned.
Jian Yan agreed and walked into the bustling E District under their gaze.
She walked along the street and suddenly her arm felt tight. She instinctively wanted to suppress the other person, but she froze when she saw him.
The woman with a thin face and numb expression grabbed her arm and dragged her behind the bushes nearby. Her cracked and withered hands were like chicken claws, and she was extremely strong.
"Go back. This is not the place for a girl like you. You will die." The woman said softly.
Jian Yan looked at the hand on his arm, then at the anxious woman, and his eyes felt a little sore.
But he still shook his head and rejected her kindness in a hoarse voice, "Thank you, I came here for something, something very important."
The woman retracted her hand upon hearing the sound, stared at her for a long moment, then turned and left with the broom in her hand with an increasingly numb expression.
Jian Yan touched Panda on his arm and thought for a moment, then put on a mental shield and ran all the way to his destination.
The checkpoint was still manned, but the guards here were more relaxed. A few people were gathered together chatting and counting their belongings. Jian Yan quietly approached and squatted down, and heard them say, "Hey, have you heard? There's a riot in District 5."
"It's normal for Black Star to riot. There's no need to be surprised."
"The situation in District 5 is different this time. It's the Black Nightmare and the Vulture fighting each other. It's said that Emperor Xin has also joined in."
"Is this true? What are they trying to achieve? Weren't things peaceful before?"
"Who knows? The news comes from above. Just like the forces in District 5 can't find out the specific situation here, we can't find out the details of what happened over there either."
"Oh no, oh no, there are assassins lurking here, and seven of our brothers have been killed." A few people were chatting, but the person guarding the surveillance system in the small room next door ran out in panic and shouted.
"Fuck, which district the assassin is from? Do the boss and the others know?" The guard who spoke suddenly pulled out the particle gun from his waist and asked murderously.
"Know."
The man said quickly, "Brother, the boss wants us to gather and conduct a district-wide search."
"Brothers, take your weapons and follow me." The leader shouted loudly.
