Chapter 96: Eliminating Bright Club
Chapter 96: Eliminating Bright Club
After a long while, Fang Xiu left the hospital room. Shen Lingxue sat in the corner, hugging her knees and silently crying. She looked like a little girl who had been bullied,
He was almost fully recovered now, ready to take action. But the action he planned wasn't to deal with Nightmare; it was aimed at Bright Club. There was no proactive way to tackle the Nightmare issue; he could only wait to be pulled into the dream realm to have a chance of winning.
Fang Xiu was sure that Nightmare would eventually pull him into a dream because they had a feud.
At the Black Rose Bar, Fang Xiu met Manager Cheng of 'Kill Yet?' again. Manager Cheng, still in a fitting suit, tall and slender with a mask, looked very refined.
"Welcome! How can I help you?" Manager Cheng greeted with a smile.
"I'll take all the jobs related to Bright Club," Fang Xiu said calmly.
Manager Cheng was momentarily surprised. "All of them? Just a friendly reminder, the jobs targeting Bright Club do exist, but they're low-paid, and nobody wants them. It's not worth confronting Bright Club for such a small amount."
"It doesn't matter. I plan to wipe out them out and just make some extra money on the side."
Hearing this, Manager Cheng was utterly shocked.
"Wipe out the Bright? It seems we have a remarkable guest today. If I remember correctly, you spent two hundred spiritual coins last time to buy the life of Bright Club's leader's cousin. And now, you've decided to take action yourself.
"But aren't you afraid of leaking this news by telling me so easily? Wiping out Bright Club is no small matter. They're a major force in Greenvine City's psychic community, and their elimination could cause great turmoil."
"I'm telling you this so you can sell the information. It should be worth quite a bit of money, right? I guess Bright Club would be very interested in buying it at a high price."
"Seriously? I can do that?" Manager Cheng was dumbfounded. He never imagined encountering such a client. This was like squeezing every bit of value out of Bright Club for him.
This also implied something elseManager Cheng realized that the client in front of him had absolute confidence in his abilities, confident enough to let Bright Club know his plan in advance.
Fang Xiu wasn't planning an assassination; this was a bold and open challenge. Manager Cheng wondered when this formidable guy showed up here in Greenvine.
He took a moment to process all this before saying, "If you're truly set on eliminating Bright Club, this piece of information will be very valuable. However it's not that I'm doubting you, but it would be best if you could provide some evidence to prove your claims. Only then can I sell this information. Otherwise, if I sell it and you don't follow through"
BANG!
Fang Xiu slammed a bronze candlestick onto the table. Manager Cheng's pupils shrank instantly upon seeing it. "This is a Specter Gadget! It belongs to Ma Wenbin, the leader of Bright Club. They had even offered a reward for information on this Specter Gadget."
Fang Xiu's mind started whirling after this. It seemed Wang Yanran hadn't shared the information about the Specter Gadget with Ma Wenbin, or perhaps she was planning a surprise
But now, the surprise was impossible since Wang Yanran was dead. Wang Yanran was well-informed; even what Bright Club couldn't find through their rewards, she had discovered on her own.
Fang Xiu, however, wasn't surprised. He knew Wang Yanran had her ways of gathering information, especially with her ability to seduce men.
"The reward for the Specter Gadget's information, I've taken it. You can tell Bright Club that I have it. Also, keep this Specter Gadget as proof of my intention to act against them. You can sell the news now. Oh, and my name is Fang Xiu, currently an agent at the Investigation Bureau," said Fang Xiu as he removed his mask, revealing a handsome and calm face to Manager Cheng.
Manager Cheng scrutinized Fang Xiu, quickly recalling his profile.
Fang Xiu, a 20-year-old local from Greenvine, a rookie at the Bureau with a foreseeing ability. Manager Cheng was astonished.
_'What makes the rookie bold enough to claim actions against Bright Club? Is his Spiritual Energy gone out of control?'_
But no matter how Manager Cheng looked at Fang Xiu's calm face, he couldn't see any signs of Spiritual Energy instability.
_'Is it that the Bureau's planning to move against Bright Club, using Fang Xiu as a front?'_
That was the only proper explanation Manager Cheng could think of.
_'Yes, that has to be it. As a member of the Bureau, Fang Xiu must have insider information about their plans against Bright Club and was looking to make a profit from it. Since Bright Club is destined to be taken down by the Bureau sooner or later, he may as well accept all the jobs and earn as much as possible.'_
Upon realizing this, Manager Cheng's eyes lit up. He was impressed and thought Fang Xiu was talented indeed, adept at seizing opportunities.
"Mr. Fang, you should download the Kill Yet app. I'll send you all the requests related to Bright Club," suggested Manager Cheng.
Fang Xiu nodded and, under his guidance, downloaded the Kill Yet app, creating his account with the nickname "Bright Slayer" and the note: "Accepting all requests related to the Bright."
Seeing Fang Xiu's nickname and note, Manager Cheng's mouth twitched.
_'What a grudge this must be! Not only has Fang Xiu stolen their Specter Gadget, but he's also planning to kill all of them.'_
Despite that, Manager Cheng didn't dare say a thing as Fang Xiu was clearly a ruthless and dangerous person.
Using a Specter Gadget as a deposit and daring to show his face without fear of targeted assassination, such a guy was either mad or hiding a very deep hand. Either way, he wasn't someone to be trifled with.
Manager Cheng then began sending requests to Fang Xiu.
"Ding! You have a new kill order. Please check."
"Ding! You have a new kill order. Please check."
Fang Xiu opened the requests and saw they were mostly related to people from Bright Club, but the prices were so low that they had remained unaccepted for a long time.
He soon came across a familiar nameWang Yanran.
The note on the order read, "This despicable woman was dating eight men behind my back and ranked me as the ninth? She hurt my feelings, stole all my money, she deserves to die!!"
The reward was five spiritual coins.
Seeing the reward of five spiritual coins, Fang Xiu found the note was quite an honest one. The guy must have been swindled out of all their money; otherwise, the reward wouldn't have been so low.
_'The guy seemed close to losing control, not because Wang Yanran was dating eight men, but because they were ranked ninth Such a bizarre sense of competition,'_
Still, Fang Xiu was no longer surprised by this. After all, it was the psychic world where astonishing and shocking statements were commonplace."
