“Don’t overthink it; we never abandon or give up.”
“Hmm, it feels pretty nice to have a master now,” said Wen Mansha as she rolled over and gave a kiss. She continued, “Master, I have some news about the investigation on the outlaw you asked me to conduct.”
“Oh? What news?”
Wu Heng had been dealing with matters in the Zombie World at Changying Area for the past few days.
Not much had been accomplished on the association’s side, either.
Furthermore, if he was to accumulate more merits and faster upgrade to the rank of Vice-executive, he needed to focus on capturing the outlaws.
Wen Mansha caressed his muscles, saying, “There’s a rumor saying a bandit stole a batch of goods from a trader and intends to sell them to make money to flee. They have been contacting some gangs in the outskirts of the city recently.”
“Robbed the trade convoy? Wasn’t it the Hammer Party?”
“No, the Hammer Party has their own channels. They are just some bandits, but their leader is definitely an outlaw, or else they wouldn’t dare enter the city,” Wen Mansha gave her analysis.
Ordinary murderers and bandits could enter Lundham City, besides the association’s outlaws.
Lundham City simply didn’t care.
If they didn’t even dare to enter the city, they were most likely important outlaws.
“Where is it? Are you planning to trade with him?”
“In an abandoned stone building on the outskirts of the city, we aren’t planning on trading, but a gang from the outskirts plans to trade with them,” said Wen Mansha as she climbed atop Wu Heng.
Wu Heng frowned in thought, “On what day is the trade taking place?”
“It’s scheduled for the day after tomorrow. I came to tell you in advance.”
“Good job, you are reliable as always, Wen Mansha.”
“Stop it!” Wen Mansha slapped lightly but her motions became more vigorous as she whispered, “If master decides to intervene and kills them, I want to take over the goods. It would be a great help to the gang.”
“If there are goods, I don’t mind giving them to you. But remember, other members of the squad get a share of the money.”
“Give me a discount, and I’ll pay.”
Wu Heng chuckled, “Alright, if we get the goods, they’ll be yours.”
“Thank you, master.”
After fooling around in the study for a while,
Their walked towards the bedroom.
Getting ready to rest.
…
Early the next morning.
Wen Mansha gently helped him get dressed.
Enviously, she said, “I’m really jealous of them for being by your side every day.”
“You’ve been complaining all night. You are the big sister; you should behave like one and take care of them more,” Wu Heng slapped her butt as he spoke.
“I know! I won’t get angry. After all, I am the one master likes the most!” Wen Mansha clung to him again and whispered, “Master, do you prefer my wild cat costume, or the one from last night?”
“Last night’s!”
“Hmph, it seems like now that you have someone different, you don’t like the wild cat costume.”
“Not again.”
After sweet-talking for a while, they went downstairs again.
After breakfast.
Their were about to go out and attend to their own matters.
Before leaving, Wen Mansha took out two money bags from her pocket and handed them to Mini and Andre Willow. Her expression was still cold as the powerful sister-in-law, “I came in a hurry, and didn’t bring any gifts as the big sister. Take these, buy some daily necessities for yourselves.”
The two women were stunned.
They subconsciously took the heavy money bags, appearing somewhat flustered.
“Uh, thank you, Sister Wen Mansha.” As soon as they came to their senses, they thanked her immediately.
Wen Mansha nodded, “If anyone bullies you, come see me. There are some things that the master can’t handle personally, I’ll help you solve them.”
After speaking, she gave Wu Heng a smile, took Skeleton and left.
Wu Heng was speechless.
It seemed that last night’s talk was still useful.
At least, she really did come across as a big sister.
She had a strong street gang vibe though.
He also instructed them briefly before leaving the house.
Mini pulled Andre Willow aside, whispering, “You see that? Master hit her. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be this nice today.”
“Yeah, it’s good for us anyway,” Andre Willow responded.
“You know, last night, master must have hit Sister Wen Mansha all night. I heard her moaning for a long time.”
Andre Willow was taken aback, and her face turned somewhat red.
She pinched her cheek, “In a few days, you’ll understand.”
…
Heading to the association.
He collected four reply letters at the front desk.
The lounge was empty.
Wu Heng, the team leader, hardly ever visited the association, let alone the other members.
They sat down on a sofa and began reading the letters.
The first one was from Slyther. The first half was relatively normal, narrating the recent situation in Black Stone Town.
The second half was more caring, but it didn’t specify anything. He just stated that he would be coming to Lundham City in a few days to select a few girls to replenish the staff at Money Cat, and he would visit then.
The letter, due to the Hammer Party issue, was held up at the border.
Slyther had already arrived, but the letter hadn’t.
Now that their relationship was established, the polite words in the beginning seemed superfluous.
The second letter was from Yuli.
The whole letter was just complaints about how boring it was in Black Stone Town.
Nothing interesting, nothing delicious.
Then she asked him for the method of making potato chips, planning to make them herself at home, in case something happened to Wu Heng and the skill was lost.
“Thanks a lot, my dear niece.”
If she was greedy, she should admit it. The way she put it made it sound like he wouldn’t live long enough.
The third letter was from the previous team leader, Autruck, regarding work matters.
