24: Such and such

“Just like this, and like that.”

“So that’s how it is!”

“Exactly, that’s how it is.”

Lu Xueqing recounted her previous experience to Liu Shihhan.

Upon hearing that Xiao Yun had led Lu Xueqing to camp and eliminate Li Wenzhe’s team, successfully acquiring millions in supplies,

and also hearing a detailed report of Li Wenzhe’s misdeeds,

Liu Shihhan’s gaze towards Xiao Yun couldn’t help but become much more complex.

“I always thought your grades were pretty bad, and that you didn’t know anything,” Liu Shihhan said, a faint smile appearing on her face as she looked at Xiao Yun.

“I didn’t expect you to be so skilled.”

My usual grades?

Xiao Yun was immediately puzzled; how did Liu Shihhan know about his usual grades?

However, that wasn’t the focus right now.

What he needed to do now was to deal with the supplies in his secure container.

After the last match, his hundred-slot secure container was almost full.

If he didn’t clear it out, it would be inconvenient for his next knife run.

“Putting everything else aside, I still have things I haven’t sold yet,” Xiao Yun said faintly.

“I still need to go back to the Exchange.”

He checked the time; not much had passed.

The previous Confidential Dam match should still have a few minutes left.

Before the next match started, he could just deal with the supplies in his secure container.

“Oh, by the way, you two had better deal with the five-piece sets first,” Liu Shihhan reminded them at this point.

“The last game just ended, and you two are most likely the only ones who brought out five-piece sets.”

“If you continue to wear them or try to sell them, others will quickly recognize you.”

“Especially since there might already be quite a few people in Eight Warehouse who have been bribed by Li Wenzhe’s family.”

Upon hearing this,

Xiao Yun immediately frowned slightly.

Indeed, as Liu Shihhan said, the five-piece sets on them were very dangerous right now.

It was like having trackers installed on them.

As long as they continued to wear this equipment, or tried to sell it, the counter attendant at the Exchange would immediately recognize them again.

However,

Xiao Yun being recognized didn’t matter much.

After all, the previous counter attendant’s actions probably meant she had already memorized his transaction ID.

His records of buying and selling at the Exchange were probably being sent to Li Wenzhe constantly.

“If he likes to monitor, then I’ll let him watch to his heart’s content,” Xiao Yun said with a faint smile, a plan forming in his mind.

Now that he had unlocked his operative skills, his knife-running ability had greatly improved.

He wondered what Li Wenzhe’s reaction would be if he saw him bringing out a pile of supplies from the restricted area every time without buying any equipment?

“However, I still need to protect Lu Xueqing,” Xiao Yun thought at the same time.

Although his own information was exposed, Lu Xueqing’s was not.

Given Li Wenzhe’s personality, he wasn’t someone who would be gentle with women.

If he found out that Lu Xueqing was his teammate, Lu Xueqing would definitely be targeted as well.

“Master, what should we do? Will these gold armor and gold helmets not sell?” Lu Xueqing asked with great concern.

“It’s fine, just put these two five-piece sets back at home for now, and we can sell them another day.”

“But how do we send the five-piece sets back?”

Xiao Yun fell silent.

Lu Xueqing also fell silent.

However, after less than two seconds of silence, both of them simultaneously turned to look at Liu Shihhan.

“What? Why are you looking at me?”

“Hey, say something!” Liu Shihhan was a bit flustered.

“You don’t seriously want me to hide these two ‘dirty’ items at my place, do you?”

“Shihan, I know you’re the best,” Lu Xueqing said, hugging Liu Shihhan and softly cooing.

“No, no! Wouldn’t that make me complicit with you two?”

“Master, you say something too.” Seeing that her charming offensive wasn’t working, Lu Xueqing quickly turned to Xiao Yun for help.

Xiao Yun sighed helplessly.

Although he wasn’t the type to bother others, and Liu Shihhan had already helped him by bringing clothes and a mask to conceal his identity, for which he was very grateful,

in the current situation, only Liu Shihhan could help them.

“Miss Liu…” Xiao Yun slowly began, finding it very difficult to speak.

“Just for Lu Xueqing’s sake, okay? Take the five-piece sets back to your place!”

As he spoke, Xiao Yun extended a fist.

“You’re still making jokes at a time like this!” Liu Shihhan was amused by his gesture.

But she still smiled and bumped fists with him, then took the two sets of equipment.

“Alright, but I’m telling you, this is the last time I’m helping you two!”

......

Arriving at the Exchange again, this time Xiao Yun deliberately went to a different counter.

Indeed, after changing clothes and putting on a mask, the counter attendant had no extra reactions.

She scanned all the supplies Xiao Yun brought, then deducted taxes, and the transaction was quickly completed.

“A total of 690,943.75 yuan has been deposited into your account.”

Transaction completed.

Xiao Yun looked at the amount in his account, which had reached an astonishing 3.39 million!

Even Xiao Yun himself was surprised by such a fast earning speed.

This was also thanks to good luck in this round.

First, he encountered the Secret difficulty, and then he ran into Li Wenzhe’s team.

He had accumulated more than three-fifths of the funds in one go.

“Master, Master, we’re going to be rich!”

Back in the resting area, Lu Xueqing had also completed her transaction.

“Besides that five-piece set, I earned 800,000 in this round!”

“So much money! It’s my first time seeing so much money!”

“With this, I won’t have to worry about my university tuition and living expenses when the time comes.”

Lu Xueqing said excitedly.

Her eyes were crescent-shaped now, as cute as a kitten.

Xiao Yun couldn’t help but ruffle her head.

“Alright, I need to enter the next match,” Xiao Yun said faintly.

“Master, I’ll go with you too!”

“No, you can’t.”

“Huh? Why? Are you abandoning me, Master?” Lu Xueqing froze in place, looking pitiful.

After spending this time together, Xiao Yun also felt that Lu Xueqing was a very pure girl.

As a teammate, she listened to instructions and had no lack of understanding, making her a trustworthy teammate.

Xiao Yun also wanted to happily run knives with her.

But,

given the current situation, if Lu Xueqing continued to stay with him, it would inevitably arouse Li Wenzhe’s suspicion.

He wasn’t afraid of being targeted, but it would be bad if Lu Xueqing was targeted.

“Alright, I won’t abandon you, after all, you’ve recognized me as your Master.”

“Then why…?”

Seeing Lu Xueqing’s reluctant expression, Xiao Yun patiently explained to her.

And she was very sensible; after understanding Xiao Yun’s intentions, her mood improved greatly.

“I understand, then let’s go our separate ways!”

......

Leaving Eight Warehouse, Xiao Yun was not in a hurry to re-enter the restricted area.

Just now, while dealing with the supplies, he also bought some things.

[Material: Copper Coin Rarity: Green Price: 2326]

This was a crucial item for upgrading the military dagger, and since it was cheap, just over two thousand per coin, Xiao Yun simply bought twenty of them.

With a thought, the family heirloom dagger appeared in his hand.

Xiao Yun placed three copper coins on the blade, and the next second, the copper coins were swallowed.

[Ding! Upgrade successful!]

[military dagger Type: family heirloom Level: 3 Damage: 16 Movement Speed Bonus: 0% Attack Speed: Fast Attack Range: Extremely Short Special Skill: None Upgrade Requires: Rusty Pirate Copper Coin x5]

After upgrading to Level 3, there were no changes except for the damage.

And the upgrade material was still the pirate copper coin.

Without overthinking, Xiao Yun continued to strengthen it.
