91: Alipay received 30 million

"Liu... Liu Yan!"

"He's back! Principal! Liu Yan is back!"

"And Zhao Chuang! They're all back!"

Seeing Liu Yan emerge from the mist, several teachers quickly patted Principal Wang, who was sitting on the ground.

"What?!"

Principal Wang immediately looked up.

Upon seeing Liu Yan, Principal Wang shot up, rushed forward, and grabbed Liu Yan's arm to make sure he wasn't mistaken.

"You... won?" Principal Wang asked in disbelief.

"Brother Yan killed them all!" Zhao Chuang shouted, looking thrilled.

"Something like that," Liu Yan nodded.

"It's good that you're back... it's good that you're back..." Principal Wang sighed in relief, then immediately changed his tone and asked angrily:

"Why did you run into the Top Secret Area? Even if you're strong, you shouldn't take such a big risk!"

"Standing by the river often, how can one not get their shoes wet? Didn't Teacher Qi teach you this principle?"

Liu Yan knew that Principal Wang was concerned about him and wasn't angry about his tone.

"I need a resuscitation ventilator."

"Is that thing more important than your life?" the Principal asked, frowning.

"Something like that."

"Is that the only three words you can say?" the Principal gave Liu Yan an annoyed look.

"Since that's the case, you need to be careful and not get yourself killed. No one will care for you then."

"Go back and rest early. Don't forget tomorrow's assessment."

Finally, the Principal left after saying that, dismissing the other school leaders and teachers around him before he departed.

"Brother Yan, should I head back too?"

"Okay, see you tomorrow," Liu Yan nodded.

Then the two said goodbye and left the school separately.

Their homes were not in the same direction.

Walking on the road, Liu Yan transferred today's expenses to Dr. Zhao.

At a roadside stall, three men were grilling skewers and drinking beer.

"Did you guys know something happened in the Third District?"

"Yeah, I don't know what's going on, but there's a bunch of Foreigners in there now!"

"More than that, the Foreigners from Little Eagle Country are more brutal than the last, they torture first then kill! They don't care if there's a grudge or not!"

"It's not just them, I heard a brother of mine ran into some from Sakura Country, and he was also tortured then killed."

"Sigh, if there was a grudge, it'd be one thing, or at least if they were afraid of retaliation they'd hit the spine. But torturing and killing without any grudge is a bit too much."

"Now he doesn't dare to enter the Third District anymore. He's preparing to start a business selling cosmetics."

The other two shook their heads regretfully.

From a noble operative in the Third District to a startup boss at the bottom of society, the disparity was clearly immense.

"Luckily your brother is a male. I heard that a female, in the Third District..."

"Damn it, the Third District has become a lawless place, hasn't it!"

Bang——!!

The man angrily smashed the beer bottle on the ground.

The splashing beer foam just happened to hit Liu Yan's pants.

"Oh, sorry, brother, my bad, my bad."

Seeing this, the man quickly picked up a tissue, turned around, and wiped the beer foam off Liu Yan's pants.

"It's fine," Liu Yan waved his hand.

"Were you just talking about things inside the Third District?"

The man nodded.

"Could you tell me more about it?" Liu Yan asked with a smile.

Seeing this, the man immediately became interested, pulled out a chair from the side, and also handed Liu Yan two skewers.

"Come, come, little brother, sit. Eat whatever you like, I'm treating you."

"The Third District, starting this afternoon, suddenly a group of Foreigners arrived."

"Now it has become a lawless place. After all, it doesn't belong to any country, so no one can reach out and manage it."

"It's no longer like before, where our own people fought each other. Now it's a united front against outsiders!"

"Tomorrow I'm going back to the Third District to teach them a good lesson!"

After speaking, the man patted Liu Yan's shoulder.

"You seem quite interested in this. If you have time, I'll take you along to experience a Top Secret operation."

"You know Asala Guard Soldiers, right? I can kill one with a single burst."

"You know Warden Chen Yu, right? He offended me a while ago, and when I got into the zone, I killed him."

"Remember a few days ago, I had 300,000 worth of supplies on me, was surrounded by two teams, and successfully evacuated."

"If it were you, you'd probably be flustered, right? But I did it!"

The man took a big bite of the skewer and a gulp of beer.

"No need, thank you," Liu Yan waved his hand with a smile.

"You don't look very old, you must still be a student, right?"

Liu Yan nodded.

"About the same age as my younger brother. Maybe you even know him."

"You know about the inter-school Sniper Elite Competition a few days ago, right?"

Liu Yan nodded again.

"My younger brother, Liu Yan, took first place!" The man thumped his chest and gave a thumbs-up.

"Recently, all the news has been about his exploits. You should know."

When the man called out his own name, Liu Yan subconsciously paused, then smiled slightly and nodded.

"I thought Chen Yu was killed by Liu Yan."

"Hey, hey, hey, that's not true," the man closed his eyes, leaned back, and waved his hand.

"Although my younger brother is a genius, he's still a bit lacking compared to me, his older brother. Without my help, could he have killed Chen Yu?"

Liu Yan nodded in sudden understanding.

Finally, after asking about some other things that happened that afternoon, Liu Yan stood up, thanked him, and turned to leave.

"Take care, little brother. If you cause trouble in the Third District later, just mention my name. I'm Feng Piaoxi!"

After saying that, the man named Feng Piaoxi opened another bottle of beer and continued chatting indignantly with his friends.

Just as he turned and walked halfway, Liu Yan's phone rang. After answering, the voice of the Old Man at the Recycling Stall came through.

"Tell me your full name. The amount this time is too large, and it's prompting a risky transfer."

"Liu Yan."

"Okay, transferring it to you now."

After hanging up, his phone immediately rang again.

"Alipay received, 30 million."

The money for the equipment he had bought from the Old Man at the Recycling Stall had arrived.

The men eating skewers stopped chewing, looked at Liu Yan, and then at each other.

Liu Yan turned back and raised his phone.

"Thanks, brother. This round is on me."

After returning home, Liu Yan opened his phone and looked at the news about that afternoon.

"Not only outside the Third District, but even the operational areas inside have merged."

The bad news was that a group of Foreigners had arrived, treating the Third District as a lawless place and committing evil deeds.

The good news was that more people were delivering equipment.

Liu Yan's initial main concerns were that there wouldn't be enough buyers for miscellaneous items.

This would eventually lead to a situation where, even with a powerful vacuum cleaner, he could bring out a large pile, but the Old Man at the Recycling Stall wouldn't want it anymore.

The other concern was that the operatives' money didn't just grow on trees. Recently, it had become noticeably clear that the quality of equipment for people in the Top Secret Area had decreased compared to before.

Liu Yan's constant taking without giving back led to less and less equipment being produced.

The equipment was all worn by Soldiers, but the Soldiers trained by Liu Yan were generally not something ordinary operatives could beat.

Even those with strength, facing a disparity in equipment, might not be able to defeat those Soldiers.

"This is great. With this merger, the speed of training Soldiers can be much faster."
