Chapter 947: 585. Shadow’s Meeting Gift

“How long is the boss planning to sleep?” Zhang Mengchan asked curiously.

Beside the campfire, Qing Chen had fallen into a deep sleep after escaping danger, sleeping for a full 12 hours, while Yangyang stood guard over him for those 12 hours.

Yangyang glanced at Qing Chen: “It’s probably the first time in months he’s been able to sleep so soundly.”

“Is the boss really that exhausted?” Zhang Mengchan asked curiously.

“Yeah,” Yangyang said, “your boss is the kind of person who’s always racing against time, planning every moment of his time meticulously and never stopping. The fact that he can sleep so well means he’s let go of some things after capturing Jindai Yunhe.”

“Where are we going next?” Zhang Mengchan asked curiously.

Yangyang smiled and said, “Let’s wait until your boss wakes up before deciding.”

Just then, Jindai Yasuhito, drenched in cold sweat, came over carrying a bundle of firewood and placed it beside the campfire.

His wrists had been broken by Jindai Yunhe, but here he was, still a captive alongside Jindai Yunhe. The pain from his fractures was excruciating as he picked up firewood, forcing him to carry the wood with his elbows…

Jindai Yunhe lay uselessly on the ground, unable to do anything, while under Yangyang’s orders, Jindai Yasuhito was forced to do the hard labor…

What a miserable sight.

One of the ten directors of the Jindai Consortium, now reduced to this state, might have already considered suicide if he were weaker mentally.

After finishing his tasks, Jindai Yasuhito found a spot to sit, his expression numb.

“Give me some food,” Jindai Yasuhito said, looking at the campfire.

Yangyang glanced at him: “Starve.”

Jindai Yasuhito paused: “Do you know what you’re doing? I haven’t eaten in two days.”

Yangyang: “Since when does a captive have so much to demand?”

Jindai Yasuhito knew Qing Chen was part of Qing’s Spy Agency.

He calmly said, “I heard you call Qing’s Family. Someone from Qing’s Family will soon come to take me and Jindai Yunhe away, then we’ll be given corresponding levels of prisoner treatment, secluded in a suburban villa, awaiting our family head to propose exchange terms. This won’t change because you like it or not, so do what you have to do. You can vent, but you can’t starve me to death.”

Yangyang’s eyes lit up: “Have you watched Nicolas Cage in Lord of War as well? You even act like it!”

Jindai Yasuhito was silent for a moment: “?”

Suddenly, he felt that the girl in front of him seemed a bit off? Did she not hear what he was saying?

At this moment, a Door of Shadow opened in the nearby woods, and the shadow emerged wearing a baseball cap and black mask, smiling as he greeted Yangyang: “You must be Miss Yangyang!”

Yangyang reined in some of her boisterousness and said obediently: “Hello, Mr. Shadow.”

She was pondering a question: Qing Chen is great, just has too many elders.

She wondered if she’d spend more time during New Year with the Knights, or return to Qing’s Family more often?

The shadow held a small tea canister in his hand, handing it to Yangyang: “It’s Realm camellia inside, drink about three grams a day, finishing this canister will clear your mind and eyesight, consider it a welcome gift from me.”

Jindai Yasuhito was taken aback, having seen this Qing’s shadow before at the negotiation table, though the shadow’s current demeanor was a stark contrast to his formerly cold persona, appearing unusually gentle.

After all, this was a superhuman renowned for cultivating tea through unusual methods, who had ever seen him so gentle before?!

Moreover, Jindai had previously investigated Realm camellia, estimating that it would take roughly two B-Class superhumans to cultivate just such a small can of tea, and now the shadow was giving it away just like that.

Jindai Yasuhito suddenly felt he had misjudged the identity of this girl?

What kind of girl would require a personal gift from the shadow?

Yangyang accepted the small tea canister: “Isn’t this too valuable?”

The shadow shook his head and smiled: “You work so well together, partners can’t have differing levels of vision. Plus, we need to thank you for helping Qing Chen out this time.”

“Thank you, Mr. Shadow,” this lively and car-loving Yangyang girl was exceptionally well-behaved in front of elders.

As the shadow arrived, Qing Chen also opened his eyes.

He slowly got up and asked: “Won’t you blame me for leaving the group and acting alone?”

The shadow smiled and said: “How could I? You’re free to go wherever you want, Qing’s Family isn’t your prison.”

Then, two more members from Qing’s Spy Agency emerged from the Door of Shadow. As soon as they saw Qing Chen, they briskly approached, looking as if they wanted to say something, but couldn’t because of the shadow’s presence.

The shadow glanced at them: “Didn’t you both say privately you’d like a photo with him? Go ahead, I’ll take the picture for you.”

Both high-ranking spies stood frozen, afraid to move, thinking what if the shadow was being sarcastic.

With a hint of annoyance, the shadow took out his phone: “For such a minor task like handling Jindai Yasuhito, you didn’t have to come yourselves. Now you’ve volunteered to come, do you think I don’t know what you’re up to? Go ahead, get acquainted with your future boss.”

After saying this, the two Spy Bureau members cheerfully approached Qing Chen, placing him in the middle, with one of them flashing a peace sign and smiling innocently.

This scene left Qing Chen at a loss.

Jindai Yasuhito swore that he had never seen members of the Spy Bureau smile so innocently before.

In everyone’s memory, spies were always sinister, ruthless, and fierce!

After taking the photo, the two spies dragged Jindai Yasuhito away without saying a word the entire time.

Jindai Yasuhito was dragged on the ground, his two broken hands causing him to howl in pain: “I demand political treatment, you can’t treat me like this. Does the Qing’s Family want to start a full-scale war with the Federation?”

“Hold on a second!” Shadow raised a hand to stop the spies, then looked at Qing Chen: “How do you plan to deal with him?”

Qing Chen thought for a moment and said: “I originally intended to use Jindai Yunhe to avenge Qing Mu, but now I think Jindai Yasuhito might be more suitable. Lock him in the pigsty and let him stay there for life. Don’t let the Jindai Consortium exchange him out.”

Hearing these words, Jindai Yasuhito instantly went mad: “You can’t do this to me!”

But Shadow just smiled: “As you wish.”

With that, the two satisfied spies dragged the desperate Jindai Yasuhito towards the Door of Shadow.

The completely crippled Jindai Yunhe, while coughing, laughed and said: “Yasuhito, old man, this Qing Chen must have a terrifyingly high status within the Qing’s Family. You miscalculated, hahaha! You’re worse off than me. I’m about to die, but you can’t even beg for death.”

Qing Chen glanced at him: “How do you know I intend to kill you?”

Jindai Yunhe gasped: “You wouldn’t leave someone like me in the world, would you? After battling each other so many times, we both know that as long as either of us is alive, the other will always have a thorn in their side… We are both the type who would try to turn the tables even if there was a sliver of hope.”

Qing Chen was silent for a few seconds. Jindai Yunhe was right. He originally wanted to use Jindai Yunhe to humiliate the Jindai Consortium, but he felt that letting someone like him live might end up with Qing’s Family members responsible for guarding him being killed in the future.

With Jindai Yasuhito, it’s different. That member of the Ten Eunuch lacks fighting spirit and might go insane after a month of imprisonment.

After Jindai Yasuhito was taken away, Shadow asked: “What are your plans next? The society you started in City 22 seems quite interesting. Are you going back to continue its development?”

Qing Chen shook his head: “It’s no longer needed there… What do you think of this society?”

His implication was that, since Shadow discovered what he was doing, he must also have keenly noticed that this matter would affect the entire power structure of the Federation.

As a vested interest, Shadow probably wouldn’t let the Parents’ Meeting develop further.

However, Shadow just smiled and said: “I don’t have many years left to live. What’s it got to do with me? Don’t worry, I only found out about the anomaly over there while looking for you. Others aren’t as idle as me, you have some time to develop. Before those old guys find out, quickly gain the power to protect yourself… However, it’s difficult.”

When Shadow said it was difficult, he meant that once the bosses of all the consortiums discovered what the Parents’ Meeting was doing, they would definitely launch a full-scale crackdown on it. At that time, the Parents’ Meeting might be shattered directly.

Shadow looked at Qing Chen: “You haven’t answered me. Where are you planning to go next? Do you know the entire Spy Bureau is waiting for you to return? There are countless people there, just like those two spies just now, waiting for you to go back and hold the reins of power.”

Originally, Qing Chen’s ability to break out of the A02 base was shocking enough, especially since he brought out more than 900 intelligence personnel.

Now, Qing Chen boldly went and captured Jindai Yunhe and Jindai Yasuhito alive.

One is a renowned A-Class expert of the Jindai Consortium for 13 years, the other is a member of the Ten Eunuch.

During the past two days, Qing Chen had no communication with the outside world and didn’t even know how much of a sensation this matter had caused throughout the Federation.

After all, that’s a member of the Ten Eunuch, a figure at the top of the Federation’s power pyramid, who was just captured like that.

When the news spread, the entire Spy Bureau was in an uproar.

Who wouldn’t want a Daytime Boss like this, practically an indomitable force?

At this point, Shadow shifted his tone: “However, your identity as the Daytime Boss has now been completely uncovered.”

“Oh no,” Qing Chen suddenly looked up and said.

“Hmm? Is there a danger?” Shadow asked in surprise.

“No, no…” Qing Chen said.

There is temporarily no danger, after all, he has now become B-Class and doesn’t particularly need all those layers of masks. Even if many people know who he is, they can’t do much to him.

What he is thinking about is not whether there is danger, but how to face those he has deceived…

Back then, Qing Chen played two roles for a long time, even praised “Qing Chen” as the Daytime Boss in the group!

This is leading to a social death scenario!

Moreover, more critically, Huan Yu should also know his true identity. It’s unclear whether the other party has recovered and is ready to retaliate against him again?
