Chapter 214: [179] Blacklist No. 77 Beast Pet Master, Kill! (Seeking monthly votes, recommendations, and subscriptions)_2
“A De.”

The old master’s call nearly brought the butler to his knees.

“Old Master, it was my oversight.”

Pei Jinye silently watched him, leisurely wiping the corner of his mouth with a precious handkerchief as he stood up, and the maids around him as well as those who rushed over to tidy up at the first opportunity.

He reached out and patted the middle-aged butler’s shoulder without saying a word, then turned and walked away.

But the middle-aged butler started to break out in a cold sweat.

Because he knew… he had misspoken.

In the Jiang family, Jiang Qingcang was an emperor whose word was law, so how dare these servants meddle in their master’s affairs?

Watching the old master stand up and leave.

The middle-aged butler hurriedly followed.

“Old Master, this is the latest information… There has been a fluctuation in the stock price of the Distant Group…”

He talked about topics that Pei Jinye didn’t care about at all.

And the middle-aged butler mistook his earlier verbal slip for the reason the old master kept silent, so he felt increasingly anxious.

Until—

“A De, I want the list of people you’ve been gathering quickly. Don’t disappoint me.”

“Yes, Old Master, I definitely will not let you down.”

The middle-aged butler felt a weight lift from his chest when he finally heard the old master speak to him.

“Go.”

“Yes.”

During the thirty minutes of the lunch break, the operation of “Big Dream for Thousands of Autumns” had restored Pei Jinye’s spiritual power, and with the free blue potion provided by the Jiang family, his spiritual power had recovered to 32 points.

Two o’clock in the afternoon.

Inside the Back Mountain Training Room.

Pei Jinye sat with two Blood Lotuses hovering above his head, a stream of vitality coursing through the acupoints throughout his body, the vitality inside gradually sounding like a roaring river.

Three o’clock in the afternoon.

A call from Brother Bi suddenly came through the secret communication line set up by Pei Jinye, sounding urgent.

Pei Jinye swiftly closed the curtains of the Internal Court and sealed off the whole area before picking up the call.

“Brother Bi, go ahead.”

“Zhou Ye has had an accident. He was stabbed three times at home ten minutes ago and is now being taken to the hospital… Be careful on your end too.”

Pei Jinye was startled.

They had just left the suspected den of the Starfire Army, and now Zhou Ye had been ambushed at home.

But Pei Jinye didn’t think it was the handiwork of the Starfire Army.

The method was too crude.

If it had been the Starfire Army, they would have directly bombed the headquarters of the Investigation Team with a cannon, not stooped to attacking a mere member of the team.

“Who is the assailant?”

“It’s the same smuggler we caught last time. Damn it, I don’t know whose strings he pulled, but he got bailed out. And right after getting out, he had people stab Zhou Ye.”

Pei Jinye then said, “So the guy hasn’t been caught yet?”

“Not yet. Do you know who his father is?” Brother Bi said in a lowered voice.

But before he could finish, Pei Jinye interrupted, “It doesn’t matter who it is. Anyone who crosses our people must be uprooted.”

Brother Bi was taken aback.

“A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall,” Pei Jinye said calmly. “Since they have chosen to take action, it shows they don’t take the Investigation Team seriously at all. Keeping such a person alive, we won’t have peaceful days in the future.”

Brother Bi fell silent.

He slowly responded, “You’re right, we must uproot them entirely!”

The call ended.

Pei Jinye stood up and left.

The call from Brother Bi had reached him, so naturally, he had to go check on Zhou Ye as well.

Three forty in the afternoon.

Pei Jinye arrived at the First Hospital.

Confidential clerks from the Investigation Team were guarding the hallway. Pei Jinye showed his credentials before he was allowed to enter.

To his surprise, Qiu Hezi was also there.

“Team Leader.”

“You’ve come,” replied Qiu Hezi with a nod, looking at Zhou Ye, “You rest well these next few days. The perpetrator has been put on citywide wanted notice.”

Zhou Ye nodded, his body wrapped in bandages.

After Qiu Hezi left with his team.

Zhou Ye apologized to Pei Jinye, “It’s a pity that we couldn’t keep one. Otherwise, the Third Class Merit would have been within our grasp.”

Pei Jinye chuckled lightly, “You don’t seem too badly off?”

Zhou Ye gestured with his left hand and grinned.

It was then that Pei Jinye noticed that his hand had been replaced with a prosthetic, “You this…”

“Hey, it’s okay,” Zhou Ye dismissed it with a smile, “I’ve always been curious about what it’s like to have a prosthetic limb. Now I’ve gotten my wish. It’s just not quite comfortable yet. Once I get used to it, it can significantly increase my strength.”

His smile was remarkably optimistic.

Pei Jinye nodded at this.

“Anyway, did you come here after Brother Bi told you? Where is he?” Zhou Ye suddenly looked behind Pei Jinye, curious.

“He’s out capturing the culprit,” Pei Jinye didn’t elaborate much, gesturing to the basket of fruits in his hand, “You focus on recovering.”

“You and Brother Bi will have to wait for me to get back before you take on missions together,” Zhou Ye quickly said.

Pei Jinye shook his head with a smile, “You really are a mission maniac.”

“Haha, aren’t you a cultivation maniac? And Brother Bi is the slacking maniac. The Investigation Team’s ‘Three Maniacs’—isn’t that a good team name?”

Seeing Zhou Ye’s self-satisfied look, Pei Jinye couldn’t help but chuckle.

“I’m off.”

“Alright, take it slow.”

He closed the door to the hospital room.

Pei Jinye glanced at his phone.

Forty minutes had passed…

This was the time since he had lost contact with Brother Bi.

“If nothing unexpected has happened…”

At that moment, he received a call from Brother Bi.

“Three culprits, two killed on the spot, one arrested… His father is a director of the Pharmacology Department. I have already initiated the investigation procedures on my end.”

“A director? What’s there for him to be haughty about?”
