8: The bounty order is the employer, just do it!

Shen Bei was a little flustered at this moment.

After the daily settlement panel appeared, it turned out that the person paying attention to him wasn't the rainbow man.

It was the stranger upstairs!

Coupled with the recent murderer sightings in Changtu County.

Shen Bei couldn't help but connect them.

This terrifying thought made Shen Bei shiver all over.

"Coming for me?"

Shen Bei frowned in thought: "Eighteen is really a hurdle."

Now, Shen Bei had prepared for the worst.

The stranger upstairs was the murderer!

Although this guess was baseless, even absurd.

But Shen Bei's cautious nature forced him to make this assumption.

"Report! Absolutely must report!"

Shen Bei made up his mind. If the person upstairs was the murderer Gu Changfeng was pursuing, he was only separated from the other party by a wall.

For a Martial Artist, this wall was like cardboard.

Once the man upstairs wanted to harm him, his safety would definitely not be guaranteed.

He quickly tidied up.

After breakfast.

Shen Bei left, intending to head to school.

As soon as he stepped out, he happened to see the man from upstairs coming down to throw out trash.

"What a coincidence, little brother. Are you going to school or to work?"

The man looked at Shen Bei with an unreadable smile.

Shen Bei's Face instantly turned bitter, hesitating in place.

He secretly thought, how unlucky, how could it be such a coincidence to meet this person as soon as he left?

But soon, Shen Bei realized that the so-called "coincidence" was no coincidence at all.

The man's trash bag was torn, and the soup inside dripped out.

And formed a stain on the ground.

Normally, a person should quickly go downstairs to prevent the soup from dirtying the ground.

Moreover, the dripping marks were one by one on the ground, forming a line.

But there was a puddle at the man's feet.

All this indicated that the man had been waiting here for a long time.

Shen Bei gulped, feeling more and more that this man was the murderer!

Shen Bei forced himself to calm down and said with a smile: "To be determined. If I have a chance to skip class, I'll go to work. If not, I'll go to sleep."

The man nodded: "How about this, I have a good project that's perfect for young people like you to earn some pocket money. Come to my room tonight, and I'll guide you for free."

Shen Bei's mouth twitched, and he stammered a few times: "Okay, okay."

After speaking, Shen Bei didn't stop, slipped out of the stairwell, and ran towards the school.

And the man named Xiao Ying stood at the entrance of the stairwell, watching Shen Bei's retreating back, his Face dark and unclear in the shadows, licking his lips:

"Eighteen... truly a delicious age."

...

"Whew~~"

Shen Bei sat in the classroom, wiping the sweat from his forehead, breathing heavily.

He felt like someone was following him during the journey from the residential area to the school.

It was as if at any moment, someone would swing a sledgehammer and hit him on the back of the head.

Then he would wake up again, finding himself lying in a bathtub full of ice, and the man upstairs would ask if his kidneys hurt.

It was so damn scary!

"What are you doing!"

Suddenly, Jian Tong jumped out from behind, slapping Shen Bei's shoulder hard.

Shen Bei was still immersed in his "persecutory delusion."

Jian Tong's slap scared Shen Bei so much that he let out a cry, jumped up, and fell to the ground.

"Are you sick!"

Shen Bei cried out in alarm, "Can you not be so sudden!"

Jian Tong, however, just stared at her fair, tender little hand, muttering to herself in shock: "Last time I slapped you, you just stumbled. This time, one slap, and you actually jumped up."

"Could it be that my spiritual attribute is fake? Is my strength attribute extremely high?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Bei's mouth twitched.

He felt that Jian Tong was going astray.

Her spiritual attribute was frighteningly high during the last test.

She had already touched the threshold of a Martial Artist.

According to this indicator, Jian Tong would definitely Cultivate spiritual Martial Skills.

But now, Jian Tong was starting to doubt her life.

Shen Bei quickly got up, raised a hand to interrupt: "Enough, enough, don't think nonsense. If you pat a tiger's butt, even a tiger would be startled."

Jian Tong raised that milky white, slender and beautiful palm: "Is that so?"

Shen Bei nodded, gulped. These hands... it would be a waste not to fly a plane with them.

The two sat down again.

Jian Tong blinked, looking at Shen Bei, and asked curiously: "What exactly happened yesterday?"

"Don't ask, I'm afraid you won't be able to sleep."

"Hmph."

Jian Tong rolled her eyes.

Soon.

The class bell rang.

But Teacher Professor Gu Xinrou did not appear for class.

The students looked at each other, chattering noisily.

"Where did the teacher go?"

"Who knows?"

"You brat, how dare you speak to your grandpa like that."

Almost instantly, the entire classroom was like a noisy market.

Since there was no teacher, the students wouldn't restrain themselves. They played around, passed notes, ate snacks, played King's Glory, doing everything imaginable.

Jian Tong nudged Shen Bei, her soft voice saying: "Go find the teacher."

Shen Bei sat at his desk, propping his cheek: "Isn't this good? Look how happy everyone is. Teachers are the biggest cancer of the school, the steamroller of childhood."

Jian Tong raised her textbook, saying fiercely: "Nonsense! Are you going or not?"

"Alright, alright."

Shen Bei stretched: "I'm not doing this for your Face, but for my father-in-law's Face."

Jian Tong slowly opened her mouth wide, her eyes widening, instantly filled with astonishment: "You... you... Ah! You're flirting with me!"

Shen Bei spread his hands: "We're all buddies, you can flirt with me too."

Jian Tong's pretty Face stiffened slightly, her delicate brows furrowed. She wanted to retort, but in her agitated state, she couldn't form words.

She directly picked up her textbook and threw it at Shen Bei.

Shen Bei turned around and slipped out the back door of the classroom.

Soon.

Shen Bei passed several floors and arrived at Teacher Professor Gu Xinrou's office.

Before he could push the door open, he heard voices coming from inside.

"Yesterday's bait fishing plan was a complete failure!"

"Especially Shen Bei, he didn't follow our planned route at all, but he was doing well in his part-time job."

"Are we still going to put out bait today?"

"Time is pressing. This murderer has been lurking in Changtu County for several days. If there's no news soon, it might lead to disaster."

"Yes, it seems calm now, but a potential storm is brewing. Any student's tragic death will turn into an accusation against us patrols."

"How about... we just issue a wanted poster? It could also deter the murderer. As long as he leaves Changtu County, it has nothing to do with our school."

The last sentence was spoken by Principal Zhang.

This act of shifting blame also reflected his cautious attitude.

Let the murderer kill wherever he wants, just don't cause trouble in Changtu County.

"I agree!"

Shen Bei heard Professor Gu Xinrou's voice: "Principal Zhang's love for his students is evident to heaven and earth. A wanted poster can indeed deter villains and make them leave voluntarily. Just don't torment my students."

"Then let's issue a wanted poster, plus a reward of one million, to mobilize the power of the people and leave him nowhere to hide!"

Shen Bei listened clearly from outside, his heart stirring.

Issue a reward?

Isn't this equivalent to an employer?

It will definitely activate the daily settlement panel!

Leaving aside everything else, a one-million reward, plus another million from the System, that's two million!

Shen Bei suddenly pushed the door open and rushed in.

Upon seeing Shen Bei, Professor Gu Xinrou's delicate brows slightly furrowed, her luscious, creamy red lips pursed slightly, and she glared at him, her tone steady: "Why aren't you in the classroom? What are you doing here!"

"I'm just here to invite the teacher to bed—"

"Hm?" Gu Changfeng's Face twisted, his gaze chilling as he looked at Shen Bei.

What the hell?

Did you just say that again?

Shen Bei quickly corrected himself: "I'm here to invite the teacher to class! The class bell has already rung."

Professor Gu Xinrou said, "Oh," then: "Go back and tell the students to keep waiting."

Shen Bei was unmoved, straightened his back, and said: "Then I'll accept the bounty!"
