Looking at Fu Qingzhu’s wounds, Yang Xiao felt somewhat apologetic; besides, no matter what, he had indeed saved him during a mission.

Seeing Yang Xiao’s expression ease up a bit, Fu Qingzhu quickly said, "Yang, this time just think of it as doing me a favor, the risk for this mission isn’t big, at most it’ll just take up one day of your time, plus the pay isn’t bad."

Fu Qingzhu held up three fingers, his attitude serious, "Three hundred thousand."

"That little?!"

Yang Xiao was shocked, his coffee cup shaking in his hand, startling Fu Qingzhu, who subconsciously thought Yang Xiao found the amount too little, "Not enough, right, right, considering your status and skills, Yang, this amount is indeed a bit low. How about this, think of it as helping a brother out, I’ll add another hundred thousand for you, making it a total of four hundred thousand, just for one day."

Four hundred thousand for one day, even with some risks, Yang Xiao thought it was worth it; this deal was almost catching up to his annual salary, not including bonuses, of course.

And given his Patrol Defense Bureau identity, he figured Fu Qingzhu wouldn’t dare play any tricks.

"How come it’s only four hundred thousand?" frowned Yang Xiao, "You want to buy a day of my time for four hundred thousand?"

"Yang is busy with official duties, I know, just take it as helping a brother out," Fu Qingzhu said all he could.

"Alright then, we are brothers after all, I’ll do it for your sake this time. If there’s similar business in the future, it won’t be at this price, right, Fu?" Yang Xiao said with a half-smile, determined to expand his ventures and continue taking jobs. ƒгeewebnovёl.com

"Of course, that’s for sure, if there’s a suitable deal in the future, I’ll help you drive a hard bargain, Yang!" Fu Qingzhu’s face glowed rosy at the assurance of steady business.

"I’ll take the job. When approximately and also, I need to know all the details about the individual, or no deal," Yang Xiao stated.

"The time should be the day after tomorrow. As you know, privacy about one’s schedule is of great importance to this kind of person, but he will notify me once he arrives in Rongcheng. I’ll send you the detailed information about the target later," Fu Qingzhu was very cooperative.

"Right, Yang, there’s another thing I need your help with. Please find someone from your bureau to work with you for the outer perimeter security since your identity must be kept confidential throughout, which should make things easier for you," Fu Qingzhu was quite experienced in such matters.

"Well... it’s possible, but this, this..."

Seeing Yang Xiao’s fingers rub back and forth on the table, Fu Qingzhu immediately got the hint, "Of course, that brother will not come for nothing, I’ll add another hundred thousand for his trouble, consider it paying for his supper."

"Deal!" Yang Xiao agreed briskly.

After Fu Qingzhu left, Yang Xiao took out his phone to first report the matter upward, then made a call to Beibei.

Beibei answered the phone, her voice weak and slurred, clearly not yet over her hangover, "Hello?"

"It’s me, I’ve lined up a good job for you. Find someone to work a one-day shift, 20 thousand!"

"That little?!" Beibei instantly perked up, jumping out of bed.

"20 thousand!"

"I’ll take it, I’ll take it, I’ll take it! I’ll find someone right away!"

After hanging up, Beibei called Da Xiong with joy in her voice, "Da Xiong, get up, sis has set up a great job for you, one day’s shift for five thousand!"

...

Having returned to his office and brewed a delightful pot of tea, Yang Xiao was enjoying life’s pleasures when suddenly, his computer showed an incoming file.

The file was sent from the technical department, and upon opening it, it was all about the analysis and follow-up investigation for Yang Xiao’s current task.

It wasn’t of much use, just a formality until Yang Xiao flipped to the last page, which marked the investigation information on the other two survivors apart from himself.

One piece of investigation record caught Yang Xiao’s attention.

According to intelligence, Fu Qingzhu had visited Yu Mi’s rental house located in the suburbs twice, once three days ago and again last night. The motives were unclear.
