143: Ele.me

Yang Dian nodded at Wu Li:

"Hello, Director Wu."

Wu Li pushed her chair back and stood up, waving her hand at Yang Dian:

"Why be so polite?"

"If you respect me, just call me Sister Wu, like Shi Sheng does."

Then her tone shifted:

"I've seen the video of you fighting the Eight-Armed Lizardman. If you're the one making a move, dealing with Charles and his people shouldn't be a big problem."

"But you still need to be careful."

"After sealing off the space, you must immediately put spatial shackles on Charles."

"Otherwise, if he leaves the sealed space and can use his spatial abilities, you won't be able to catch him."

Shi Sheng interjected from the side:

"Sister Wu used to be with the military. She was assigned here because of the Tian Zhen incident in the information department."

"Oh, and she's an old acquaintance of our captain."

Yang Dian realized.

He had wondered why Wu Li had such a capable aura, not like what an ordinary administrative clerk would have. So, she came from the military.

That made sense.

Yang Dian, who always held the military in high regard, nodded at Wu Li again:

"Sister Wu, don't worry, I've noted it down."

"I'll shackle Charles the moment I meet those people."

Wu Li continued to caution him:

"Still, be careful."

"Alien Planet has returned; don't make a blunder on this small mission."

"That's definitely not going to happen..."

After bidding farewell to Wu Li, Yang Dian didn't rush to leave. Instead, he pulled Shi Sheng into the changing room.

"Huh?" Shi Sheng stared blankly at the yellow uniform Yang Dian shoved into his hands:

"Why are you giving me a Meituan uniform?"

Yang Dian shook his phone:

"I've retrieved big data records."

"A person named Wang Zihan has ordered takeout 13 times for room 902."

"Besides that, he also ordered takeout 3 times for room 907 at Xizi Hotel, across from Fuzhou Hotel, and 8 times for room 603 at Nanming Hotel, a street away."

"A cunning rabbit has three burrows. Charles has spatial abilities. We made a big fuss catching Wu Yinglin just now, so they might not still be waiting for us at Fuzhou Hotel."

"I've already intercepted all orders for the third floor of these three hotels. First, we'll see if they order takeout."

"If they do, we'll approach them as delivery riders."

"If they don't order takeout, then we'll make other plans."

With that, Yang Dian had already put on a blue mask.

Unlike Shi Sheng, he was from Ele.me.

Besides that, his slightly old delivery box, with traces of soup on the outside, also had a red JD Delivery uniform pressed at the bottom.

The main idea was to have whatever was ordered... To make it more realistic, after Yang Dian and Shi Sheng changed into their uniforms, they got on their electric scooters and started delivering food through the streets and alleys.

The weather at the end of August was exceptionally hot.

Approaching noon, the air, scorched by the sun, felt as if it could bake a person.

Delivering food was also hard work.

Under the scorching sun, picking up meals in the East and delivering them to The West.

Many office buildings and residential complexes didn't even allow external electric scooters to enter.

Ordinary electric scooters were fine; if they got in, they got in.

But if they saw an electric scooter with a delivery box on the back, they would usually be stopped directly.

If a little soup spilled, or if the delivery was slightly late, a few customers would still make things difficult.

It was incredibly tough.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, caused by the sun, Yang Dian, who had just finished a delivery and asked for a five-star review, let out a breath.

"In this day and age, earning money is truly not easy~"

He had practiced martial arts, and his physical fitness was many times stronger than ordinary people's.

Even so, the sun made him irritable, let alone ordinary people.

Just as Yang Dian was sighing, Wang Zihan, whom he had marked, finally made a move.

"Please note, target Wang Zihan has opened the Ele.me APP and is currently ordering from Rong's Dining."

"Navigating to Rong's Dining."

Looking at the navigation map that popped up on his phone screen, Yang Dian immediately turned his scooter around and headed towards Rong's Dining.

Five minutes later, when he was still 300 meters from Rong's Dining, his Bluetooth earphone emitted a soft "beep."

"Wang Zihan's takeout order has been intercepted, and three other takeout orders along the way have been intercepted. Please deliver them promptly."

Yang Dian twitched the corner of his eye.

"This is so damn real!"

"Now, even if someone is monitoring, how would he know I'm not a delivery rider?"

Although he said that, to make his act more convincing, Yang Dian still slumped his shoulders slightly and hunched his back a bit, making himself blend more into the crowd.

After picking up the other three orders along the way, when Yang Dian rode his electric scooter near Rong's Dining and called out "732," his tense mind immediately felt a gaze fall upon him.

"732 is ready, pick up at the counter."

He got off his electric scooter and jogged to the counter to find 732.

There was a lot of food, enough for 10 ordinary people.

'Clayton has a gigantification talent, so his digestive ability is indeed much stronger than ordinary people's.'

Thinking this, Yang Dian, who had the takeout in hand, didn't delay. He directly put the takeout into the delivery box.

Then he wiped the sweat from his forehead, got on his electric scooter, and rushed to the delivery point.

As for the gaze that had been fixed on him?

Yang Dian didn't turn back to look.

The source of the gaze was from the treetop, and it felt somewhat familiar to him. It was probably Romu, the Beast Tamer's Night Owl, nothing worth seeing.

The electric scooter traveled through streets and alleys, and the Night Owl's gaze followed him all the way.

Until he delivered two takeout orders, and Yang Dian, holding the third takeout, ran into Fuzhou Hotel and called Wang Zihan.

"Hello..."

He had just said "hello" when a voice came from the phone:

"Deliver the takeout to room 907 at Xizi Hotel across the street. Bring it straight up; we've already told the front desk security, and they won't stop you."

"Uh..."

"After delivery, I'll give you an extra 30 yuan tip. If you don't deliver, I'll complain about you!"

"Beep~ beep~ beep~~~"

Looking at the phone with the busy tone, Yang Dian wanted to scratch his head, but both hands were holding takeout, so he couldn't.

"What a mess."

Letting out a breath, Yang Dian, who had returned the way he came, put the takeout back into the delivery box.

Then he turned his scooter, elegantly kicked up the kickstand, and rode towards Xizi Hotel.

Squirtle, who had just walked out of the Fuzhou Hotel lobby, blinked as she stared at Yang Dian's retreating figure:

"Why does he feel somewhat familiar?"

After muttering to herself, she looked at Pikachu:

"Sister, where are we eating for lunch?"

Pikachu opened a restaurant on her phone:

"Let's go here."

"Yang Dian's social activities are relatively simple: Special Administration Bureau, various restaurants, various foot massage parlors, and practicing martial arts by the sea—a four-point line."

"This restaurant is one he frequents. Let's go 'accidentally' meet him."

"Okay, I'll call a taxi now..."

Yang Dian naturally didn't know that shortly after he left, the Pokémon sisters were already preparing to intercept him at his usual restaurant.

At this moment, riding his electric scooter, he had already arrived downstairs at Xizi Hotel and, led by a staff member, took the elevator up to the ninth floor.

Soon after, a knock sounded at the door of room 907.

"Hello, Ele.me delivery."
