Chapter 616 - 336: One Tree Blooms Ten Thousand Flowers; All Thief Sect Under Heaven Are One Family
The autumn wind blew drearily outside the car window.
Inside the car, it was warm like spring.
Fang Xiaoyu watched the Immortal Beast manipulate his phone.
"Did it order the wrong milk tea?"
Bai Mo’s fox apprentice, Braised Pork Bun, was holding the phone and operating the delivery app.
Upon hearing Fang Xiaoyu’s comment, it looked up, its fluffy face showing a hint of confusion.
"A’ow?"
Ordered wrong?
It might not recognize words, but it knows pictures!
The caramel macchiato, lemon yogurt drink, and snow top coffee were all correct!
"Expert Bai Mo, there’s me, Qingyun, Old Zhang, the Immortal Beast, making five people in total, but the Immortal Beast ordered seven cups..."
Bai Mo suddenly understood.
"Ah, no mistakes.
"It wants to drink three by itself."
Braised Pork Bun tilted its head, casting a sidelong glance at Fang Xiaoyu.
"A’ow?"
Never seen a fox drink three cups of milk tea?
Is that strange?
Everyone else in the car was speechless, not knowing how to comment.
While waiting for the milk tea, Bai Mo held his apprentice Braised Pork Bun, opened his laptop, and accessed the expert database.
He noticed several strange tasks posted in the task area today, and the access level was very high, visible only to a select few Sequence Seven experts.
"Soliciting high-performance... GPU firmware virus?
"Or a high-performance CPU micro virus?
"What do they need this for?
"Is the Immortal Committee planning to attack someone’s GPU and CPU?"
Bai Mo took a quick look but found the task description quite vague. It only mentioned soliciting powerful, untraceable viruses that could completely destroy GPUs and CPUs.
Bai Mo, lacking expertise in this area, didn’t know if it was feasible and decided to ignore the task, continuing to read related supercomputing literature.
Not long after, he faintly heard someone cursing outside.
He opened the car window to see Cai Xiaozhen and his group returning, looking frustrated.
Several of Cai Xiaozhen’s assistants even had scratches on their faces.
Bai Mo called out softly.
"What’s going on?"
Could it be that this group lost a confrontation with Hu Shanjiu?
Logically, Hu Shanjiu wouldn’t dare expose his Immortal Techniques, right?
Cai Xiaozhen and his companions gathered by the car window, all looking disgruntled.
"That guy is too cunning!
"We initially planned to scare him off just by putting on a show.
"But he’s quite gutsy, unaffected by threats, and refused to budge!
"Then we thought, let’s just beat him up, get into a fight, and have everyone detained! We have connections anyway, leaving him stuck in there...
"But the coward wouldn’t make a move! He kept his hands behind his back, completely still!
"We intended to give him a light injury, make him stay in the hospital for a while...
"But then he started yelling for help like a slaughtered pig!"
Bai Mo was a bit surprised.
"Then what about the injuries on your faces? Didn’t he make a move?"
Cai Xiaozhen’s teammates were even more disgruntled at this.
"He didn’t, but when he shouted, several spirited grandmothers came to help; they made the move..."
"That guy’s really cunning and slippery!"
"So disgusting!"
"But don’t worry, I’ve found a way to deal with him!"
Bai Mo chuckled dryly, not knowing what to say.
Actually, whether or not that sideburn-bearded guy followed them, it didn’t matter. In this period, he was definitely safe.
...
A day passed in a flurry.
Bai Mo sat in the car, accompanying Cai Xiaozhen and his group as they wandered around West State City.
While Cai Xiaozhen and his team went to bury Array Stakes, he remained in the car, continuing his research on supercomputing-related literature.
Supercomputing hadn’t been around for too long, and the principles weren’t very complex. But when diving deep into the research, there were many engineering aspects to consider, along with some strange mathematical theories that had significant depth.
Holding his apprentice, Bai Mo delved into the papers, finishing one after another.
Without realizing it, he had traveled around half of West State with the car.
Before he knew it, the sun had set outside the window, dusk fell, and neon lights lit up the streets and alleys.
Whoosh...
The car stopped in the hotel parking lot.
Bai Mo closed his laptop, holding it in one hand and his apprentice in the other, he exited the car.
Looking up, he saw the hotel sign and couldn’t help but pull a wry smile.
"This... this is over budget, isn’t it?
"Is it really appropriate for us to be staying at the Silton?"
Cai Xiaozhen smirked coldly.
"That rascal has been tailing us all day.
"Let’s stay at the Silton tonight and see if that little streamer will continue to follow us."
He had already investigated that Hu Shanjiu was from a poor background, became a small-time streamer after graduation, traveling and streaming across the country, earning and spending two to three thousand a month, with less than five figures in his bank account.
This Silton Hotel could easily wipe out half of his savings in just one night!
Let’s see if he’ll still chase us!
Bai Mo didn’t know how to respond, and followed Cai Xiaozhen and others as they left the parking lot and entered the lobby of the Silton.
...
Whoosh...
A taxi pulled up outside the Silton Hotel.
Hu Shanjiu stepped out, standing in the night breeze, gazing up at the splendid building, shaking his sideburns, and grimaced slightly.
"This... this is ridiculous..."
In his mind, the Ancient Immortal was equally surprised.
"This hotel doesn’t look cheap! Do you have enough money to stay here?"
Hu Shanjiu gritted his teeth.
"Stay!
"A big shot like him, his bodyguard services are priceless!
"It’s worth it no matter how much it costs to tag along with him!"
He pulled out his phone, stepping onto the high steps of the Silton, speaking with determined venom!
"The most painful thing in life is to die with money unspent.
"I’m probably going to die this time, so why keep the money?
"Experiencing a five-star hotel before death, it’s worth it!"
...
In a luxurious suite,
Cai Xiaozhen raised his glass.
"Expert Bai Mo, a toast to you!
