Once, I wanted to be a good person-Chapter 279 - 52. Miaomiao - Is that Fang Ze? (10,000 words for monthly pass!)_3
The man in black said, "The lord is now like a deity, so he didn’t notice these minor details."
"Actually, the body tempering method of the Shadow Warriors isn’t quite suitable for us humans. The training speed would be much slower."
"This is the Xida Body Refining Method, the training methods for the first four stages."
As he said this, he waved his hand, and suddenly a small booklet flew into Miaomiao’s hands.
Miaomiao took it, then listened as the man in black said, "You can start practicing according to it."
"It should be much faster than training with the Shadow Warriors."
Having said that, the man in black then asked, "Do you have any other information to report? I can note it down now, and tell the Lord Devil when he returns."
Hearing the man in black’s words, Miaomiao snapped back to reality, quickly replying, "There is some information."
She then roughly explained some recent events in the slum area.
In fact, nothing significant had happened in the slums recently. But as this girl was meticulous in her thinking, she recounted every useful piece of information in great detail.
Among the heap of things she mentioned, the only thing that caught Fang Ze’s attention was that Miaomiao said, today someone had sneaked into the slum to inquire about Fang Ze’s information. They were discovered on the scene and then fled.
’Someone is investigating me?’ Fang Ze’s brow furrowed slightly behind his mask, wondering, ’Who could it be? The Jiang Family? The Bai Family? The Rejuvenation Society? Or some other power?’
’It couldn’t possibly be the remnants of the wiped out Si Family, could it?’
’I haven’t used the "Darkness" ability in public like Miaomiao. I only clean up, so it can’t be possible.’
After a brief contemplation, Fang Ze tentatively settled his suspicions on the most likely candidate, the Jiang Family.
It seems... the Jiang Family has been quiet these past three days, investigating me instead...
I must be more cautious, more vigilant, to avoid their schemes...
With this thought and having no other valuable intelligence, Fang Ze nodded, indicating he had noted everything down, and then prepared to send Miaomiao away.
What he didn’t notice, since he appeared in front of Miaomiao, was that her eyes had never left him.
Even when the ten Shadow Warriors appeared, her gaze did not stray.
’It’s like, it really is like...’
’His figure and proportions are very similar to Fang Ze’s.’
’And, this Messenger, he appeared right after Fang Ze escaped from the Special Case Team...’
’Could it really be Fang Ze?’

Thinking this, Miaomiao gathered her courage and, while the man in black was unguarded, softly called out, "Fang Ze?"
Hearing her voice, the man in black glanced at her coldly and asked, "What Fang Ze?"
Seeing the man in black’s reaction, as if the name didn’t ring a bell, Miaomiao felt a bit disappointed. She hurriedly adjusted her expression then said, "No, nothing, Lord Messenger. I misspoke."
"Mmm...," the man in black uttered a sound from his nose and then said, "Alright. I have noted down the information. You may go."
After that, he commanded the eleven Shadow Warriors to enter Miaomiao’s shadow, reminded her not to "feed" alone, and then disconnected the link.
After disconnecting, Fang Ze removed his mask, feeling incredibly fortunate.
Truly lucky...
The Late-Night Investigation Room can hear the thoughts of the person being investigated, so while Miaomiao suspected Fang Ze, those thoughts were exactly what Fang Ze was listening to.
Otherwise... if Fang Ze had been distracted, Miaomiao might have really been able to probe the truth from him.
He took a deep breath, murmured about his fortune, then disabled the disguise of the Late-Night Investigation Room.
Then he checked Miaomiao’s panel, and since he had lent her eleven Shadow Warriors, Miaomiao’s daily debt reached a terrifying 590. Plus 100% interest.
Fang Ze now receives her exclusive 1180 Credit Points every day.
Honestly, Fang Ze didn’t even know what so many Credit Points exclusive to Miaomiao could do.
The most expensive thing for Miaomiao, her Awakening Ability, cost 300 per day.
Deducting this, Fang Ze was left with a net of 880 points daily, all saved up.
Otherwise... perhaps lend it to other borrowers to earn their exclusive Credit Points?
While musing over this, Fang Ze started to consider whom to lend this ability to...
......
Meanwhile, as Fang Ze was contemplating this, in the Governing Hall of Emerald City.
In that lavishly decorated room, filled with aristocratic decor,
Jiang Cheng sat on a couch, listening to a woman standing in front of him report.
After a moment, having heard the report, he scoffed, "Huh. He went to the Personnel Department?"
"That dog nose is indeed sharp. Did it smell the danger from the Judicial Department and the Case Affairs Department?"
Hearing his words, the woman also obsequiously echoed, "Yes, indeed, Your Excellency."
"Everything was actually arranged on my end. As soon as he visited those two departments, we immediately arranged a case outside the city, then had our people in the Security Bureau organize for him to leave the city to handle it."
"At that time, once he left Emerald City, we could have taken direct action."
"Who knew, he didn’t fall for it." Explore more stories at novelbuddy
Jiang Cheng "hmmed" without responding.
He fell silent for a while, then suddenly, as if recalling something, he said, "I remember, there was a Deputy Section Chief in the Personnel Department of the Security Bureau who wanted to come over to our side, right?"
The woman quickly said, "That’s right."
Jiang Cheng said, "Go meet her. Have her show her loyalty. Pressure Fang Ze."
As he spoke, his expression also turned colder, "To have broken through to a high-level Awakener in just over ten days, such talent is indeed a bit frightening."
"So, we can’t give him so much time to develop."
"We must pull him back, make sure he doesn’t have the energy to train."
"Right, isn’t he handling the Hua Jian case? We can also use this as a leverage point, make him clear up the truth quickly, find the person."
"In any case, we can’t let him idle."
Hearing Jiang Cheng’s words, the woman immediately nodded and responded, "Yes..."
.......
The next day, Fang Ze got up.
Out of habit, he enlivened the pots and pans and made breakfast.
After eating the unappetizing yet nutritious breakfast, Fang Ze silently passed judgment on this batch of kitchenware as "lacking wisdom," and then prepared to go to work.
However, as he stepped out of the door and reached downstairs, suddenly, someone collided with him...
