Interstellar boss, she doesn't talk about martial arts

Chapter 1147 Can You Say This? (Second Monthly Ticket +)

Xia Chujian could see that Ye Shijie seemed to be walking on the street.

Behind are flashing neon lights and skyscrapers reaching into the sky.

The term "steel forest" has its true literal meaning in the imperial capital of Beichen Star.

Xia Chujian calmed down and said, "Captain Ye, you are not at home now?"

She also did not use the virtual display screen to allow Ye Shijie to see the environment behind her.

In her bedroom at home.

Ye Shijie was wearing a very inconspicuous outfit and a pair of plain glasses on his face. The left leg of the glasses was broken and was wrapped with a small piece of tape.

His hair was messy and his chin was untidy. He looked haggard and tired, not at all like his usual self.

He was holding a cigarette in his hand and taking a puff from time to time.

Xia Chujian knew that this was a disguise.

Looking at Ye Shijie's condition, I wonder if he is doing some mission again.

Ye Shijie dusted off his cigarette ashes and said, "I moved to a new place, but I can't reveal the address for now."

Xia Chujian looked at the environment around him and guessed that he had moved to an ordinary area where good and bad people mixed together.

There are so many people here that living here is like a drop of water falling into the ocean.

It still takes some effort to be found.

Xia Chujian didn't ask any more questions and said, "How do you know what happened on Gui Yuanxing's side? Did their family contact you?"

Ye Shijie said, "I couldn't sleep. I was trying to contact my friends at the Mulan City Correctional Department to learn about the progress of Song Mingqian and Sister Cai's case."

"He knows that we are all members of the Night Hunter Team, and these two victims are my subordinates."

"Less than an hour later, he contacted me again and asked me if Song Mingqian and Sister Cai had a life-and-death feud with someone..."

"My friend is also concerned about the cases of Song Mingqian and Sister Cai. He wants to contact their families in Mulan City to claim the bodies."

"But we couldn't get in touch with them, so we went to their address according to the address they found in the government system to notify them."

“But when we arrived, we found that both families were dead.”

"My friend said that the other party is a very professional killer. We don't know whether he is a bounty hunter or not."

“But it’s said to be very clean.”

"Song Mingqian was an only child. There were only his father, mother, grandfather and grandmother in his family. They were all strangled to death."

"Sister Cai has a large family, and they were all executed execution-style with a silent pistol."

Xia Chujian's face was filled with misery, and at the same time, he couldn't help but feel a sense of urgency.

She was silent for a while, then said, "Captain Ye, I don't think this is good."

"I think these people are not just coming for Song Mingqian and Sister Cai..."

Ye Shijie also stopped.

He turned a corner and entered the house.

After closing the door, he frowned and said, "You mean... these people are coming for everyone in our team?"

Xia Chujian nodded: "I have this hunch."

“And they’re not going to let our families go either.”

"Captain Ye, is this really unrelated to the mission of protecting the noble lady?"

"After all, we failed to protect her and she was beaten to death."

"Will the other party want to kill all of us because of this reason?"

Xia Chujian thought about it and felt that it was related to that mission.

She analyzed: "The other party is powerful and can afford so much money to hire three levels of security personnel."

"He must have money to hire someone to wipe out our team."

Ye Shijie took a deep puff of his cigarette and said fiercely, "I can guarantee that it has absolutely nothing to do with our mission!"

"Don't worry, I'll tell you why."

"Since there are only you and me in our team now, it's okay for me to reveal some information to you."

"It was the mission that night, and we did not fail."

"The people we want to protect are not dead."

Xia Chujian raised her eyebrows, not quite understanding what Ye Shijie meant.

She saw with her own eyes Li Fu beat to death the noble lady they were supposed to protect. Could it be that she saw it wrong?

However, she quickly analyzed that if Ye Shijie did not lie, then could it be analyzed from another angle that the person they wanted to protect that night was not actually the noble lady!
That noble lady is indeed a fake, and just a cover!
Their mission, the person they really had to protect that night, was actually the Queen!

Xia Chujian almost blurted out his own inference.

But I still held back.

She didn't completely trust Ye Shijie, so she didn't say it out loud. She just pretended to be confused, frowned and said, "What do you mean? I don't understand."

Ye Shijie threw the remaining cigarette into the ashtray, unable to tell whether he was disappointed or relieved, and said lightly: "It doesn't matter if you don't understand."

"Whoever tried to kill us this time has absolutely nothing to do with our mission that night."

"You just have to remember that our mission that night did not fail."

Xia Chujian subconsciously said, "Since the mission did not fail, why did we only get 10 million in reward?"

Ye Shijie: “…”

How could he say that?! The surface mission his friend had issued to the Night Hunter Association was to protect that noble lady!

But that noble lady was already dead, so according to the rules of the Dark Night Hunters, they could only get 10 million!

Ye Shijie never expected that at this time, Xia Chujian was still so obsessed with money!

The corners of his mouth twitched, and he chose not to argue about this issue with Xia Chujian, who was stubborn and only cared about money.

He simply said: "According to the task details published in the association, we can only get 10 million."

"But what you said makes sense. I will find the person who issued the task and ask him to send you the remaining 10 million."

Xia Chujian shook her head: "It's not for me, it's for me, Song Mingqian and Sister Cai."

Ye Shijie said: "But Song Mingqian and Sister Cai are both gone, and now even their families are gone."

Xia Chujian said: "I will set up a charity fund in the Dark Night Hunters Association in their name."

"Any underage bounty hunter who meets the requirements can receive funding."

Ye Shijie: “…”

Fine.

He thought that when Ping Qiong came to be a bounty hunter, he was still a minor, and so was Xia Chujian.

He did not object and said, "Okay, I'll transfer the money to you in two days."

Without waiting for Xia Chujian to speak again, Ye Shijie rushed to say, "Also, the Mulan City Correctional Department and the Special Security Bureau are investigating this case. They have contacted me and will question me and you as well."

"I told you that Song Mingqian and Ping Qiong sent you a message for help before they died."

Xia Chujian said: "It doesn't matter. Anyway, these two messages are stored in the quantum optical computer watch carrier of Song Mingqian and Ping Qiong. They will find it without you saying anything."

This is not a problem.

Xia Chujian was mentally prepared.

She even asked Qilu to change the coordinates of her alarm to Beichen Star when she called the police in Mulan City...

This way you will be foolproof.

Otherwise, if those people knew that she was at the murder scene, she wouldn't know how to explain it!

Ye Shijie just nodded and planned to end the video call immediately.

He was really afraid of the overwhelming questions that Xia Chujian would ask from time to time.

At this moment, a round bullet hole suddenly appeared on the window of his house!

Ye Shijie had his back to the window while video chatting with Xia Chujian, and didn't pay attention to what was happening behind him.

But Xia Chujian saw it the first time.

She didn't exclaim, but immediately said, "Twenty centimeters to the right!"

After all, they have been teammates through thick and thin for several years.

Ye Shijie's pupils suddenly contracted, and before his brain could react, his body followed Xia Chujian's instructions and moved to the side at an unexpected speed, half a body length away, exactly twenty centimeters.

boom!
A sniper bullet came from the window, almost brushing against his sleeve and hitting the wall of his house!
The next second, the glass on the window shattered, and even the steel-forged window frames were twisted and deformed.

And a round hole in the shape of a blasting wound appeared on the wall in front of him!

Xia Chujian's gaze on the virtual display screen was already looking out the window of Ye Shijie's house.

Opposite Ye Shijie's house is an abandoned high-rise building, but it does not have as many floors as the one on Ye Shijie's side.

The top floor of the building is level with Ye Shijie's floor.

Xia Chujian quickly put on the mecha goggles and asked Qilu to analyze the vision conditions on Ye Shijie's side for her.

Qi Lu connected to the star network and with the help of Ye Shijie's camera, he quickly found three targets.

It was typing on Xia Chujian's eyepiece display.

[Qilu]: Master, there is a sniper on the rooftop of the tall building opposite.

[Qi Lu]: Three meters above the sniper's head, there is a small combat aircraft in stealth mode.

[Qilu]: There is another genetic evolver flying towards Ye Shijie's window.

It's clearly arranged.

Xia Chujian said quickly: "Captain Ye, do you have a bazooka?"

Ye Shijie was slightly startled, and quickly replied: "Yes! Sniper rifles are also available!"

Xia Chujian said: "Your shooting skills are not good, use the bazooka."

"I'll give you three coordinates, shoot at them!"

Rockets have a high tolerance rate and a huge killing range, and do not require the same precision as sniper rifles.

Ye Shijie didn't say anything else. He rushed to his bedroom and dragged out a huge gun box from under the bed.

When I opened it, there were some gun parts inside.

It took him only ten seconds to assemble a shoulder-fired rocket launcher.

Xia Chujian: "..."

As soon as Ye Shijie opened the gun box, she knew that it contained not only sniper rifle parts, but also parts for submachine guns, smart machine guns and rocket launchers.

Then she watched Ye Shijie carrying a rocket launcher into the room he had just been in, and with a bang, he fired three rockets in succession at the window that no longer had glass, according to the coordinates provided by Xia Chujian!
This is the firing limit of this shoulder-fired rocket launcher.

It is said that hundreds of years ago, this shoulder-fired rocket launcher could only fire one rocket at a time, making it relatively useless on the battlefield.

Now, after hundreds of years of improvements, it can launch three rockets at a time!
This is the second update, including June's monthly tickets worth 1200+.
