"Sanren Agency?"
Hei Dao's words immediately drew the attention of the others, but Yue Hai noticed something else first.
"Wait, Brother Hei, did you just say you went to find those four to gather information?"
The Senlang brothers then reacted and looked at Hei Dao with strange expressions.
Hei Dao said somewhat awkwardly, "I had no choice. I started thinking about this problem yesterday. I know we are competitors, but if I didn't go to them, I wouldn't know where else to go."
Before he could finish, Yue Hai interrupted, "No, Brother Hei, you misunderstood me. I meant that at this time, you still had the courage to go to them for information. If it were me, I definitely couldn't do it!"
Yue Hai gave a thumbs-up, and the Senlang brothers nodded. Seeing that the three were not disgusted with him, as their leader, going to their competitors for information, Hei Dao breathed a sigh of relief.
"This is nothing to me. As long as I can help a little. Li Ge entrusting you to me is the greatest affirmation of my abilities, and you all don't dislike me."
Seeing this, Senlang took the initiative to smooth things over and said, "Brother Hei, why don't you talk about the Sanren Agency? Aren't we brothers now? Brothers wouldn't bother with such things."
Hei Dao was very touched, but as a straightforward person, he couldn't show too much emotion. He followed Senlang's lead and explained the matter of the Sanren Agency.
It was similar to what Li Zhonglou had learned, but not as detailed. He only knew that bountied missions could be accepted there.
After listening, Yue Hai asked with some confusion, "Then why didn't they go?"
Hei Dao replied, "I asked Brother Zhou about this. He said they might have to guard this place. Although it's not a strict requirement, they can't all leave together. But it seems they also have this plan."
Eyeball and the others indeed had this plan. The reason they hadn't acted on it yet was that they hadn't discussed who would go out to try first.
Eyeball was a restless person, and he was the one who first proposed this idea. However, in this regard, both Rou Shan and Chen Pao also had large capital needs, so they were all interested.
Fortunately, for some reason, Kulinan, who was the most eager to fight, was not competitive about this, only saying that it would be fine as long as it was his turn.
Returning to reality, after Hei Dao finished speaking, everyone felt that this was an excellent opportunity because the company was currently in great need of funds. They didn't know the specific reason for Li Zhonglou's departure, but they all knew he had gone to make money.
So, if they could help the company make some money before Li Ge returned, wouldn't that be an even greater achievement?
As soon as they thought of this, they immediately made up their minds and made a decision.
Yue Hai directly asked, "Then where do we go to accept this mission?"
"I've asked about this. We can just go to the General Bureau. However, the missions are for extremely vicious individuals. It's not as simple as fighting monsters and gaining experience."
Yue Hai clenched his fists and smiled, "Death is the fastest path to improvement. If we only practice in our rooms, when will we catch up to them?"
Chen Peiyue, who had been silent all along, also nodded. Practical combat could help them elevate what they learned to a higher level, which was an irreplaceable benefit of burying oneself in practice.
Although the Senlang brothers did not speak, their expressions showed no fear.
Seeing this, Hei Dao nodded seriously, "Alright, then let's go together!"
The five of them left the company like this, but they didn't know that upstairs, Zhou Tong was silently watching their retreating figures, lost in thought.
Just as the four were heading to the General Bureau, in the northernmost part of Shangjing, in a border town.
Li Zhonglou, who had arrived long ago, first told Lao San to find a place to rest alone, while he began to inquire about Black Tiger's whereabouts everywhere.
Separating from Lao San first was to prevent Lao San from retaliating because of him. And the reason for not directly using the Heavenly Eye's perspective divine ability was also simple.
This time, Li Zhonglou was not just planning to complete one or two missions, but perhaps ten, twenty, or even more. If he solved them all using the Heavenly Eye's perspective divine ability every time, the reliable souls in the soul bottle might not be enough.
If it were only about quantity, then there would certainly be more than enough, but the problem was that he did not dare to merge them casually. People's hearts were separated by their stomachs, let alone these old foxes who had lived for dozens or hundreds of years, or even hundreds of years!
Now, Wen Yi was close to reincarnation. Old Lin also deliberately appeared less often to maintain his current state. To be honest, he was also troubled about choosing the next soul to merge with.
Therefore, for the missions from the General Bureau, Li Zhonglou could only find people himself.
Fortunately, he still had experience in this area.
Black Tiger attracted the attention of the General Bureau because he helped overseas forces smuggle intelligence. For such people, it would be easier to find them in some illegal places.
For example, private casinos.
As soon as Li Zhonglou arrived in this small town, he began searching for casinos, and by this morning, he finally had some progress.
"Here, Brother Hua, have a cigarette."
At the bottom of a residential building, Li Zhonglou, dressed in a plain shirt, took out a pack of cigarettes from his light blue casual pants and shook one out.
In front of him was a dark-skinned man in his thirties with a buzz cut and tattoos all over his right arm, clearly someone from the underworld.
The man seemed unfazed by Li Zhonglou's enthusiasm and said with a knowing smile, "What, waiting for that one big fish?"
Li Zhonglou quickly made a shushing gesture.
"Brother Hua, keep your voice down. If this can be done, I'll be considerate!"
The man named Brother Hua just smiled and didn't take it to heart.
A day ago, after Li Zhonglou arrived in the town, he quickly found out with the help of money that there were three private casinos there. But after visiting the three places, only the lookouts at this place knew of a wealthy old patron.
This person's betting amount would multiply several times every time he came to the casino, regardless of whether he won or lost! As soon as Li Zhonglou heard this, he was almost certain that Black Tiger would definitely be here!
So, he deliberately made up a story with this lookout named Brother Hua, saying that he had a talent with a win rate of up to ninety percent, but he couldn't act easily.
He could only act when he encountered wealthy big bosses, and then asked Brother Hua to help him keep an eye on the patron he mentioned, promising to give him seven parts of the profit if he succeeded.
Although Brother Hua outwardly agreed, he was actually making his own plans.
"What kind of talent is this? Cheating is cheating, saying it so nicely. But if it really succeeds, it's not too much for me to ask for a few more parts as hush money, right?"
Brother Hua had already made up his mind. If it didn't succeed, he wouldn't lose anything!
