60: You dare touch my people? Then you're dead!
Carriage No. 83 welcomed a new Salesperson.
Wang Feng immediately became alert.
He walked up to the Salesperson and tentatively asked about the prices of the goods.
The discounts that belonged to Dai Yingying had disappeared.
All item prices had returned to the level they should be in a third-class carriage.
Where did Dai Yingying go?
Zhang Yuqi also captured this subtle change and hurriedly inquired.
“Excuse me, where is the previous Salesperson?”
“Oh, you mean her.” The young girl scratched her head somewhat awkwardly, “Personnel changes, she was transferred away.”
Personnel changes?
Wang Feng and Zhang Yuqi exchanged a look.
They had been on the train for so long, but they had never heard of an Attendant being transferred.
“Then where did she go?”
“This... haha, I wouldn't know.” The young girl clearly did not intend to answer that question.
Her expression quickly cooled down.
She became just like the other Attendants, her face icy cold.
“Is there anything you want to purchase?”
“If not, please move out of the way immediately.”
Zhang Yuqi glanced at Wang Feng.
She found that his expression was extremely cold.
Could it be... is there some kind of relationship between the Master and that Salesperson?
Zhang Yuqi was very smart; she knew that some things should not be questioned.
Thus, she paid the Points, symbolically bought two bottles of water, and then tugged on Wang Feng's sleeve.
The young girl left.
“Master, that Salesperson... is there something wrong?”
Wang Feng did not answer.
But a storm had already brewed in the depths of his heart.
Train Attendants could not be swapped around at will.
Dai Yingying not being here meant that something had happened on her end.
Tsk... Wang Feng clicked his tongue inwardly.
He had originally planned to take this opportunity to have a good rest.
As it turned out, this kind of thing happened right as he got back!
They really won't give me a single moment to breathe!
“Master...” Although Zhang Yuqi didn't know what had happened, seeing Wang Feng's solemn expression, she knew something bad had occurred.
“Do you need my help?”
“Yeah.” Wang Feng nodded, “In a bit, tell Zhang Qiang and the others to go to the public area and ask around.”
“See if any other carriages have had their Attendants swapped.”
“Understood!” Zhang Yuqi responded.
Swinging her long legs, she went directly to the carriage to call Zhang Qiang, Wang Hao, Liu Sheng, and Cheng Rui.
After a brief explanation, the five of them left the carriage and went to the public area.
As for Wang Feng, he took the opportunity to go to Shen Aoxue's office.
After queuing for two hours, Wang Feng finally knocked on the office door.
As a result, what he saw was a row of Guards standing in the room.
And Shen Aoxue, with a steady face and a serious expression.
Upon seeing Wang Feng, Shen Aoxue inconspicuously gave him a look.
Don't talk nonsense here.
Among those Guards, there are those investigating me.
Wang Feng understood immediately.
The two had no extra communication.
Wang Feng spent ten thousand Points to undergo Gene Enhancement.
His luck was poor; he only enhanced by 0.01.
This was something Shen Aoxue had deliberately adjusted for him so as not to arouse suspicion.
After the enhancement was complete, Shen Aoxue blocked her hand with her body and quietly made a gesture.
Come here at midnight.
Wang Feng understood and turned to leave.
Then, it was the next Survivor's turn for enhancement... “Captain, the task you gave us has been completed.”
Four hours later.
Zhang Yuqi and the other four returned to the carriage.
Zhang Qiang began to report.
“We asked around.”
“In all carriages, there have been no cases of Attendants being swapped.”
Wang Feng's face darkened completely.
As expected.
The only one with a problem is my Carriage No. 83.
Coupled with Shen Aoxue's silent warning earlier.
It seems the matter of the exclusive privileges has been discovered by the Train Crew.
It really is one wave after another.
They won't let me catch my breath.
Zhang Yuqi asked—
“Master, is there anything else you need us to do?”
Wang Feng waved his hand—
“Just continue as you were.”
“Gene Enhancement, purchasing supplies, everything as usual. When the Bonus Stage arrives, go in and rake in the Points.”
“Prepare for the next instance.”
Although everyone sensed something, they all tacitly kept their mouths shut.
Everyone has secrets.
Some things are not to be asked.
Wang Feng could lead the team to turn the tables time and time again, creating more and more benefits and better treatment for them.
That was enough... Midnight.
Wang Feng knocked on Shen Aoxue's office door again.
This time, she was the only one in the room.
“Time is tight, so I'll keep it short.”
Shen Aoxue's expression was very serious.
“Remember when you asked me before if providing you with intelligence would have any impact?”
Wang Feng nodded.
And Shen Aoxue answered—
“The answer is, yes, there is an impact.”
“While you were clearing the instance, the Minister of the Guard Department, Tao Ruiyu, noticed something was off.”
“Consequently, all Attendants related to you have been listed as subjects of investigation.”
“The Salesperson responsible for your carriage, Dai Yingying, the Logistics Department, and the Dispatch Group are all on the investigation list.”
Wang Feng furrowed his brows tightly.
“Is there a solution?”
Shen Aoxue shook her head.
“None for the moment.”
“However, Tao Ruiyu doesn't have direct evidence yet.”
“Everything he's doing right now is merely an investigation.”
Shen Aoxue sat back on her desk.
Supporting herself with her hands on the desk, she leaned her body back slightly, as if stretching.
Then, she tossed her long hair.
Shaking off the fatigue accumulated throughout the day.
“I've already spoken to him, so before there is concrete evidence, he won't make things difficult for those Attendants.”
“As for evidence... he won't be able to get it.”
“But based on my understanding of him, I estimate he'll start tomorrow or the day after.”
“Before the next instance ends, he will have his own people take over the operation of the Shop on your side.”
“instance intelligence related to you won't even be given to my side.”
“If under these circumstances you can still win in the next instance, and win by a large margin, only then will Tao Ruiyu give up.”
“Only then will the involved Attendants be released.”
It was just as Wang Feng had thought.
The only thing unexpected was that the commotion this time was a bit large.
Currently, Wang Feng had only conquered Dai Yingying and Shen Aoxue.
Even other unrelated people were being dragged in for investigation.
This is a bit troublesome.
This Tao Ruiyu is clearly coming with ill intent.
“So in the next instance, you will be under a lot of pressure.”
“Plus, you're quite famous in the Train Crew now.”
“So, you have to be careful.”
Shen Aoxue's gaze toward Wang Feng was somewhat complex.
She wanted to help with something, but currently, the more she helped, the more it would actually affect him.
Once a handle was given, she would naturally be fine.
But it would be hard to say for Wang Feng.
It was very likely he would be killed by the people from the Guard Department.
Shen Aoxue smiled faintly.
“Do you have confidence?”
Wang Feng nodded.
“No problem.”
If anything, this hurdle was one he had to cross.
However, besides crossing the obstacle, Wang Feng was also thinking about eliminating the threat that was Tao Ruiyu.
Since he had already become suspicious of him, then resolving him was a necessity.
Kill him, then let a woman sit in his position.
Finally, use the attendant conquest system to take her down.
By then, no one would be able to threaten him.
Shen Aoxue received a satisfactory answer.
She walked up to Wang Feng and gently hugged his neck.
Her long, black-stockinged beautiful legs naturally climbed up Wang Feng's trouser legs.
“Not bad, I admire you.”
“Although there isn't much I can do for you now.”
“But at least in terms of Gene Enhancement, I can still give you a green light once.”
“Go on, get into the Enhancement Pod.”
“Consider it a reward I'm giving you in advance.”
The two of them kissed passionately in the dim office for a long time.
It wasn't until they were both covered in sweat that they reluctantly separated.
“However, this time, I'm going to be a bit greedy.”
Shen Aoxue licked her lips, her eyes full of greed.
“After all, the superiors are going to check the accounts.”
“So, we have to play the part fully.”
“I want all the Points you have on hand.”
“But don't worry, I won't let you lose out.”
After paying all his Points.
Wang Feng stepped into the Enhancement Pod.
And when he walked out.
His Gene Enhancement value had already reached 2.59!
Although the visible value had only increased by 0.31, it brought about a qualitative leap.
The comprehensive ability assessment also refreshed along with it.
【Survivor: Wang Feng】
【Gene Enhancement (GEI): 2.59】 (Normal person GEI: 1.0)
【Evaluation: Your physical strength is enough to give you a place among the ranks of entry-level Transcendent beings】
【Strength: Powerful muscle density, sufficient to block some small-caliber bullets】
【Speed: Breaks the human physical limit (100m/6s), can burst with double speed for a short time】
【Agility: Your reflexes and physical strength are sufficient to dodge close-range bullet fire】
Wang Feng looked at the numerical panel and thought of Wan Jinxuan.
In the previous instance, when he was in a duel with Wan Jinxuan, the latter could not only dodge bullets but also withstand a round of submachine gun fire even when his armor was completely shattered.
Judging solely by the Gene Enhancement value.
Wang Feng was already among the top tier on Train Z2425.
“The rest will depend on you.”
“Good luck in the next instance.”
Shen Aoxue sat back at her desk.
Her slender finger gently tapped her lower abdomen.
“As for the reward here... just come back and collect it after your instance is over.”
