Ice Wolf!
The power of Contract Spirits is simply not something a human body can contend with. Let alone a small knife, you wouldn't stand a chance even with a handgun.
Unless you're carrying missiles.
A moment later,
Uncle Wang, hurry to the west of the city! I've apprehended the black market scammer!
Chen Shu took out his phone and called Wang Qian from the Spirit Suppression Bureau.
Soon, a group of people arrived at the abandoned factory in the west of the city.
Huh? It's really a black market scammer?
Wang Qian recognized Wang Ba Ge from the black market at first glance.
Besides him, the other three were all in a昏迷 state. One of them, a胖子, had a head as large as a pig's, his face covered in bruises, clearly having been beaten up.
Chen Shu said with his arms crossed, Of course. Those who tarnish my reputation will not be spared!
Excellent, truly excellent! Wang Qian nodded, surprised that Chen Shu had apprehended the scammer in just a few days.
Chen Shu pulled Wang Qian aside and whispered, Uncle Wang, I've squashed one of the scammers into a mosaic.
It's fine, as long as we can confirm they are accomplices. These people probably won't be getting out for the rest of their lives anyway.
Wang Qian waved his hand. Anyone wanted by the Spirit Suppression Bureau is definitely an extremely dangerous criminal.
This isn't called killing, is it? No, it's called self-defense!
Uncle Wang, look at the great contribution I've made. The Spirit Suppression Bureau should show some appreciation, right?
Chen Shu rubbed his hands together, raising an eyebrow.
Oh, right, there's a mission from the Beast Master Association with a reward of a hundred thousand. I'll give it to you later, Wang Qian said.
The way you say that, do I apprehend criminals purely for money?
Chen Shu shook his head, appearing to have great moral conviction.
Oh? Then what is it for, you brat? Could you be a true justice seeker?
Wang Qian's expression was strange, wanting to see what Chen Shu would say.
Chen Shu grinned and said, Part of it is for justice, and of course, the other part is to reclaim my reputation.
You still have a reputation? Wang Qian's expression faltered, and he looked Chen Shu up and down.
Chen Shu spread his hands, saying emotionally, Of course! Everyone knows I'm the number one guy in the black market! Now, because of these criminals, my reputation is ruined. How am I supposed to sell my medicine?
Wang Qian asked, Then what do you want?
Chen Shu's eyes darted around, and he said with a smile, It's very simple. Just sign it in the name of a captain from the Spirit Suppression Bureau, explaining my innocence.
Wang Qian pondered for a moment and nodded.
Chen Shu immediately added, That's good. Of course, that hundred thousand reward must not be a penny less!
Wang Qian shook his head, You brat are unwilling to lose out on anything.
The people from the Spirit Suppression Bureau took Wang Ba Ge and the other three criminals away.
Chen Shu and Xia Bing also returned to the city.
Thank you so much this time, Committee Member Xia! Chen Shu looked at Xia Bing with a sincere expression.
Xia Bing shook her head and said, Just consider it repayment of a favor. Without your help, I might not have been able to get into the special training class.
That's good. We're classmates in senior year, so you can come to me if you need anything.
Chen Shu patted his chest, exuding a hearty and generous demeanor.
Classmates? You got into the special training class too?
Xia Bing's eyes widened, showing disbelief.
Chen Shu said, Isn't the special training class for top students? Isn't it normal for me to get in?
Normal, Xia Bing chuckled dryly, but in her heart, she thought: Normal my foot!
Everyone else studied hard for two years, painstakingly, to finally get into the special training class. This guy only switched to being a beast tamer for a month and got in?
Could there be some inside story?
Chen Shu ignored her and suddenly said, By the way, Xia classmate, there were a few flaws in the argumentative essay you gave me last time. Could you revise it when you have time?
Argumentative essay? What argumentative essay? Xia Bing looked bewildered.
The two-thousand-word argumentative essay praising me. I feel it wasn't sincere enough. You only focused on my appearance and didn't delve into my inner qualities.
Chen Shu shook his head and spoke to himself.
Huh? Where did she go?
He looked up and saw that Xia Bing had already fled.
Chen Shu nodded with a "teach this child well" expression and murmured, It seems she's understood a bit of my inner qualities and is going home to record it.
Let's submit the mission first.
Chen Shu stretched and headed to the Beast Master Association.
When he arrived at the Beast Master Association, he ran into an acquaintance.
Xie Bu Rou!
It was Xie Su Nan, the pork vendor. He wasn't wearing his apron now, nor did he have a cleaver in his hand. Instead, he was wearing casual clothes.
He looked much younger, as if he were only in his late forties.
Huh? Is that you?
Xie Su Nan turned around and saw Chen Shu as well.
Chen Shu asked, What? Has the pork business expanded to the Beast Master Association?
I'm here to check on missions, you idiot!
You? You're a beast tamer?
Any problem?
Xie Su Nan crossed his arms, his beard prominent, and said, As a beast tamer, isn't it reasonable for me to sell pork?
Perfectly reasonable.
Chen Shu's mouth twitched, and he walked to the counter.
I'm here to submit a mission.
Chen Shu produced the certificate given by Wang Qian.
Please wait a moment!
The staff member smiled and quickly verified it, saying, Sir, your mission: Investigate the fake medicine dealers is complete! The mission reward of one hundred thousand has been automatically transferred to your account!
Thank you! Chen Shu nodded with a smile.
Damn it, your mission is for a hundred thousand? Xie Su Nan suddenly leaned over and said, Aren't you middleman too cunning?
Cunning? Do you know what I went through?
Chen Shu's eyes widened, and he said excitedly, Five! Five criminals in total! Do you know how my day was? Do you know?!
At that moment, the beast tamers in the hall all looked over.
Xie Su Nan's mouth twitched. Big brother, can you dial down the drama a bit?
The total reward was only a hundred thousand, and you charged me forty thousand for information! Chen Shu crossed his arms and said, You owe me at least another ten thousand back!
Forget it. Without my information, you wouldn't have caught anyone. Only I, Xie Su Nan, could investigate that.
Xie Su Nan curled his lips, having no intention of returning the information fee.
Chen Shu thought for a moment and didn't push further. What if he angered the guy and he pulled out his pig-slaughtering knife again...
