Super Gene Hunting Ground-Chapter 873 - 871: Three-Star VIP (Third Update)
The young man took the white paper handed over by Gu Hai, glanced at it, walked to a machine, and entered "Yang Xiao." Soon, a series of information appeared on the screen.
"Lord Hai, the transaction record for the Black Crystal Card has come out, but,"
"But what?"
"This person's name has three stars noted before it, and the information is hidden."
"Oh?"
Gu Hai was startled, quickly ran over, and stared at the screen.
The star symbols noted behind the name of the Black Crystal Cardholders were a secret of the Genetic Store, only noted for special high-profile individuals.
For example, Long Aotian's Black Crystal Card is noted with one star, the War God's Black Crystal Card with two stars, and only very special persons would be noted with three stars.
"Unlock the information behind the three-star note."
The young man was stunned,
"Lord Hai, I don't have the authority password for this."
Gu Hai was also suddenly shocked and said:
"Ah, I almost forgot in my haste, you go wait outside, I will check it myself."
This young man only had the authority to access information for one-star VIPs, while two-star and above VIPs' transaction info required personnel like Gu Hai.
The young man got up and left the room, closing the door behind him.
Gu Hai input the authority password into the machine, and information about Yang Xiao popped up on the screen.
Gu Hai glanced at it, and his heart sank suddenly.
The note on Yang Xiao read:
"Friend of the Great Elder Gu Bo from the Genetic Store Headquarters, Earthling, who once assisted Great Elder Gu Bo with bringing back secret information, personally asked by Gu Bo for special care."
There was a long list of information following.
Gu Hai exhaled deeply,
"No wonder this name seemed so familiar. The Great Elder's Jade Token brought back by Gustone from the Purple Origin Star a year ago was carried back by this Earthling, Yang Xiao. Luckily, I didn't agree to Long Aotian's request earlier, or this would have been a big mess. If Great Elder Gu Bo returned to question it, I'd be in trouble."
After pondering for a moment, Gu Hai turned off the information display on the screen and left the room.
Long Aotian was drinking tea in the VIP reception room. Seeing Gu Hai enter, he immediately asked: 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝒆𝒘𝙚𝓫𝙣𝙤𝒗𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
"Lord Gu, how is it?"
Gu Hai shook his head,
"I checked, but this person hasn't used the Black Gold Card recently."
"Oh?"
Long Aotian looked disappointed, thinking that perhaps Yang Xiao had really hidden himself deep in the mountains and forests. If he were hiding in Dragon City, he would surely need to use Crystal Coins unless he carried a lot of cash with him.
Long Aotian originally thought he could trace Yang Xiao's whereabouts, but now seemed very disappointed.
Gu Hai, trying to appear casual, asked:
"Why, is this person very dangerous? Even with so many guards, Your Highness can't capture him?"
"Alas, it's a long story. Thank you, Lord Gu, for your assistance. If this person uses the Black Crystal Card in the future, please let us know. I would be extremely grateful."
Gu Hai nodded,
"Certainly."
Long Aotian left the Genetic Store with his guards.
Gu Hai immediately called two guards to investigate the matter of Long Aotian chasing Yang Xiao.
Soon, Gu Hai received detailed information about Yang Xiao. After reading it, Gu Hai's brow slightly furrowed.
"It turns out Yang Xiao is already the leader of a wilderness tribe on Purple Origin Star. He came with Long Aotian to the Great Dragon Empire this time to negotiate a new cooperation plan.
The new cooperation plan has already been implemented across different empires on Witch Star, while Long Aotian isolated Yang Xiao on Witch Star, not allowing him to return to Purple Origin Star,
and further wants to kill Yang Xiao,
seemingly intending to eliminate Yang Xiao to control Purple Origin Star entirely..."
Gu Hai sorted through his thoughts, finally forming a question,
"What should I do? Should I intervene to save him? Based on Yang Xiao's Black Crystal Card transaction records, he was seen in Dragon City a month ago, transferring 90,000 Crystal Coins to someone in a slum."
To save or not to save?
Gu Hai fell into deep thought.
...
Yang Xiao had been hiding in Bing'er's ice cream shop, barely going out, and occasionally taking walks at night to get some fresh air.
To avoid disturbing Elder Zhan, Yang Xiao didn't have him go to Dragon City to inquire about himself.
According to his own estimation, after some time, the intensity of Long Aotian's search for him should decrease, and they would ease up on the chase, at which point he would leave Dragon City.
...
Around 11 PM that night, the bustling slum commercial street slowly quieted down.
There were only two customers left in the ice cream shop, while Bing'er and her grandfather stood outside the shop to rest and chat.
A woman stood at a distance, hesitated for a moment, then slowly walked over, finally stopping in front of Bing'er's ice cream shop.
Bing'er casually asked:
"Are you here for ice cream?"
However, as soon as the words left her mouth, Bing'er was stunned,
"Oh, Auntie Caixia, why is it you? Didn't you go back to your hometown in the countryside? Why are you back?"
Caixia looked at Bing'er and Elder Zhan with wandering eyes, speaking hesitantly,
"I, I....."
Elder Zhan said:
"Awang's wife, what's wrong? Just say it if you have something to say."
Caixia, upon hearing this, suddenly choked up and started to cry.
Bing'er and her grandfather were immediately flustered.
"Awang's wife, what's happening? Don't worry, come inside and sit down, have a glass of water, and then speak."
Caixia hesitated, looking at her once-familiar home now turned into an ice cream shop, feeling a bit estranged and dared not enter.
Bing'er took Caixia's hand,
"Auntie Caixia, come in, and taste the ice cream I made; it's delicious. I'll treat you to one for free."
Caixia followed Bing'er into the shop and sat down at a square table.
Bing'er skillfully took a fruit ice cream from the freezer behind the counter and placed it in front of Caixia.
"Go ahead, it's delicious. I can eat ten of these a day."
Caixia glanced at it but didn't touch it, looking at Elder Zhan, then at Bing'er, her face full of worry.
"Awang's wife, if there's something going on, just say it; we're all friends here."
Caixia, hearing this, let her tears flow freely, her voice choked with sobs.
Bing'er and her grandfather immediately panicked.
Caixia sobbed a few times, her voice choking as she spoke:
"Uncle Zhan, after I went back, I originally wanted to get married in my hometown and live a stable life, but all the money from selling my store was deceived by my brother, and he kicked me out to fend for myself,
I, I don't know what to do, apart from my hometown, this is the only place I know, so, I came back,
wah wah....."
Elder Zhan was taken aback,
"Why did your brother cheat you out of your money? Why did he kick you out?"
"My brother is addicted to gambling, and no one can control him. When I married Awang, to put it nicely, I was sold by my brother for a sum of money from Awang,
I quarreled with my brother, and in a fit of anger, he beat me severely and even said he would sell me off. I was terrified, so I quickly ran away,
wah wah....."
"Alas!"
Elder Zhan looked at the pitiable Caixia, sighed deeply, and shook his head.
