Chapter 145 Somewhat refined and easygoing

Life in the Living Area passed by day after day.

This was the eighth day since arriving at the Living Area.

Chen Yu was burping as he rode Zhang Zixuan out to collect rent.

It was worth mentioning that...

Zhang Zixuan was now a qualified means of transportation; she didn't cry out in pain as she traversed the gravel roads of the Villa Area.

Furthermore, no one dared to look too much.

Because those who looked too much had already been hacked down.

Starting from Villa Number One, he visited the other Villas one by one along the tree-lined path.

At every entrance, someone was already waiting.

"Big Brother Chen Yu is here! Please come in, please come in!"

"The well is ready for you; it was just reset today!"

"Take it slow, the steps are a bit high—"

Chen Yu got off Zhang Zixuan's back and swaggered inside.

By the time he emerged from the side hall, a group of people followed behind him, respectfully seeing him out.

"Take care, Big Brother Chen Yu!"

"Come again tomorrow!"

"Just let us know if you need anything!"

But Chen Yu didn't even look back, simply waving his hand.

Zhang Zixuan carried him, walking forward step by step.

During this time, the people from Polytechnic University took detours when they saw him, those from the Vocational College bowed and scraped, and everyone from the Film Academy seemed to be avoiding him...

But it didn't matter.

Chen Yu didn't care about them at all.

He only cared about his daily harvest.

These past few days, the Well of Abundance had given him many good things.

Items like [psionic fruit] and [Savage Beef Jerky] that could increase attributes...

He had obtained a total of fourteen!

That was equivalent to increasing fourteen attribute points!

However, after a lot of practice, he discovered a pattern—

Items related to luck and charisma were the easiest to obtain.

The dew of fortune had appeared five times.

Charming Petals had appeared seven times.

Adding up to twelve times, all were items related to luck and charisma.

Meanwhile, those related to constitution and spirit only added up to three.

Especially constitution; there was only that piece of Savage Beef Jerky from a few days ago, and he hadn't obtained any more since.

As for Perception-related items, there wasn't a single one, which truly made Chen Yu feel helpless.

"It seems my luck still isn't high enough."

"The thing I need most is the one that never gets fished up."

[Basic Attributes]

constitution: 101 (1)

Agility: 30 (20)

Perception: 10

charisma: 19 (9)

spirit: 13 (3)

luck: 17 (7)

Chen Yu clicked his tongue twice, feeling a bit unhappy.

If others knew the reason for Chen Yu's unhappiness, they would probably cough up blood in anger.

Ordinary people risked their lives to complete missions and would be incredibly grateful to get even one attribute point.

But what about Chen Yu?

He fished from the Wells of Abundance in rotation, monopolizing all the opportunities in the Living Area.

To achieve this, one not only needed heaven-defying strength but also thick skin and a standard of ruthlessness.

He really wasn't leaving even a drop of soup for anyone else...

Even the Information Sharing Center was sending supplies to Villa Number One every day.

Zhang Wanyue and the other girls often complained that no matter how they bundled the supplies, they were running out of space.

Now, it wasn't just the Public Backpack that was full.

In fact, every girl represented an extremely rich storehouse of supplies.

Despite this, Chen Yu still gave a direct, absolute order:

On the fifteenth day, all supplies were to be packed up and taken away; not a single item would be left behind.

Below [Basic Attributes], at the position of free attribute points.

It currently showed: 3.

Yes, Chen Yu still had some free attribute points left.

He had originally planned to wait until the Living Area period ended to redistribute them based on the principle of balance.

But looking at it now, they would most likely go to Perception.

Ten points in Perception was no different from an ordinary person.

In the apocalypse, this was practically a fatal weakness.

Without further hesitation, he put them all into Perception on the spot.

As for the origin of these attribute points...

Chen Yu narrowed his eyes.

Well, they were from the scenes of Lin Yue's murder cases.

The body that jumped from a building in Area A, the convoy that was wiped out in Area B, and the group of people who had just disappeared two days ago.

Chen Yu would visit the scenes every time, adhering to the principle of not letting anything go to waste.

Just then...

A private message arrived.

[Sun Haiyu: Big Brother Chen Yu, something happened again.]

[Chen Yu: Finally?]

[Sun Haiyu: Uh... Big Brother Chen Yu, didn't you want to investigate the murderer?]

[Chen Yu: Don't we need a murder case first to have more clues?]

[Chen Yu: If there's no case, what am I supposed to solve?]

[Sun Haiyu: ...]

[Sun Haiyu: What you said... is also true...]

[Chen Yu: Where is it?]

[Sun Haiyu: Um... how about you come to the Information Sharing Center first? You'll be passing by anyway, so I can take you there?]

[Chen Yu: Fine.]

Chen Yu closed the private message and patted the back of Zhang Zixuan's head.

"Go to the Information Center."

Zhang Zixuan's whole body trembled, and she hurried off.

Sunlight filtered through the gaps in the palm trees, falling on his body with a warm glow.

Chen Yu pondered; he always absorbed the corpses of those Lin Yue killed. It felt like a collaboration, which was a bit strange.

...

...

Information Sharing Center.

Chen Yu rode Zhang Zixuan, slowly coming along the gravel road.

Before he even reached the entrance, someone had already noticed him.

The people around were originally squatting by the entrance, chatting.

As soon as they looked up, their expressions all changed in unison.

"Holy shit! The murderer is here?!!"

A boy stood up abruptly; with that shout, the dozen or so people around him all burst into an uproar.

"Run, run!"

"Go, go, go!"

No one wanted to be associated with the murderer; keeping a distance was the right thing to do.

The boys turned around, about to rush into the hallway.

But after rushing out a couple of steps, they suddenly noticed something was wrong; the group of girls hadn't moved.

"Hurry up and go! What are you standing there for!"

A yellow-haired boy looked back and forcefully tugged on the wrist of a girl next to him.

The girl stood in place, motionless.

She just stared in that direction.

"Did you fucking hear me? That's the murderer!"

The yellow-haired boy got anxious and tugged again.

The girl finally turned her head and glanced at him.

"You go first..."

"What?!"

"I suddenly feel like the murderer isn't that hateful anymore..."

"???"

The yellow-haired boy was stunned.

He followed the girl's gaze...

The scene was too striking.

A man in a black windbreaker was riding a dog, and the dog was crawling forward step by step.

Sunlight fell on him, and his face was expressionless.

"He looks completely different from what I imagined."

"I thought the murderer would definitely be some fierce and evil-looking guy... but he's actually quite clean-cut, his skin is pretty fair, and his eyes are really beautiful. He really is from the Film Academy's Acting Department."

"Yeah, looking at him now, he even feels somewhat refined and easygoing..."

The yellow-haired boy jumped in anger: "Refined and easygoing? Open your eyes and look at what he's riding! Are you girls crazy? That's the murderer! What are you all swooning for!"

The girls ignored the yellow-haired boy, just muttering to themselves:

"Did he... did he just look at me?"

"In your dreams. He was looking at the road."

"Alright, alright, that's the murderer. So what if he's handsome?"
