With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods-Chapter 231 Suspicious Behaviour

After they finished off the skewers, Xiao Ming led them through the streets again, but with much more energy.

It had actually been a long time since Xiao Ming had eaten any meat, so it was hard not for her to be excited.

With this renewed energy, she moved much quicker through the streets and it didn't take them long to reach the noble district.

This noble district had a gate that kept out people and only those that had proper identities would be able to go through. However, it was clear by the security by the gate that they took keeping the wrong type of people out very seriously.

In the distance, Lin Fan was able to see that the Mercenary Guild was in the noble district. At the same time, he was able to see that many of the people who made their way through the gate were mercenaries.

This made him much more confident about being able to get through and about bringing Xiao Ming and Mu Bao Bao in with him.

When it was their turn at the gate, Xiao Ming was the only one who looked very nervous since she was certain that they would be chased away or worse. She had even seen someone like her who had been caught by the guards and locked up for trying to make their way into the noble district.

As expected, the guards immediately revealed hostile looks when they saw Xiao Ming.

But that only lasted a single second as they saw Lin Fan's Mercenary License.

After the incident in Brilliant Light City, while the Mercenary Guild couldn't publicly give Lin Fan a reward, they had given him rewards in another way. Such as increasing his rank to S Rank.

That was right, Lin Fan was now a S Rank Mercenary.

But that wasn't strange at all since reaching the Foundation Realm had already automatically qualified him for the rank of a S Rank.

As guards in a city that relied on mercenaries to do business, they had a much better understanding of mercenary ranks than other cities. They knew that someone who could become a S Rank Mercenary…was definitely in the Foundation Realm!

A Foundation Realm Expert, no matter which city he went to, unless it was the capital city, would receive respect. After all, Foundation Realm Experts in the secular world were considered powerful and influential people.

They didn't dare stop someone like this, so they quickly let him through even though he was accompanied by someone like Xiao Ming.

Xiao Ming's chin dropped down when she saw this and she couldn't help looking at Lin Fan with a strange look as she started wondering just what background this person had. But she also quickly threw those thoughts out of her mind since she knew that it wasn't her place to think about this kind of stuff.

If she got caught up in things that she shouldn't get caught up in, it was certain that she would lose her life…

So it was better just to do what she was paid to do and then leave this place as soon as possible.

With this thought in mind, she quickly led Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao to the Royal Style store.

It was just too bad that it didn't go the way that she had wanted it to go.

After Lin Fan brought them into the store, they immediately attracted attention. The people here were all well dressed and had expensive clothing, so Xiao Ming with her dirty clothes and dirty face stuck out like a sore thumb.

It didn't take long before people started complaining to the staff about them.

Xiao Ming's face turned a bit red when she saw this. She could tell that at this rate, they would be kicked out of the store, so she was prepared to run if necessary.

But to her surprise, that didn't happen.

When the staff member came over to Lin Fan's group, they invited them to the back which Xiao Ming thought was their way of discretely kicking them out.

However, when they arrived in the back, the staff member there gave Lin Fan a respectful bow. A person among them came forward and said, "Boss, you're finally here."

Xiao Ming's chin dropped down to the ground when she heard this as she finally realized why Lin Fan wanted to come to this store.

He was the owner of the store, it wasn't strange at all for him to come to his own property.

Lin Fan gave a nod to her and said, "Gu Xiang, help me prepare something."

Gu Xiang looked up at him with a curious look and asked, "Boss, what is it?"

Lin Fan said with a smile, "Prepare a bath and some new clothes."

Gu Xiang was surprised and confused at first, but then looking at Xiao Ming, she revealed a smile. She grabbed Xiao Ming by the shoulders and immediately said, "No problem, I'll take care of it right away."

Xiao Ming looked up with a scared look, first looking at Gu Xiang and then looking at Lin Fan before saying, "What are you…"

Before she could finish her words, she was pulled away by Gu Xiang who had a sparkle in her eyes.

Lin Fan and Mu Bao Bao watched with smiles on their faces as they watched Xiao Ming being pulled away before revealing serious looks. Lin Fan turned to the other staff and asked, "Where have you put the reports?"

One of these staff members came forward and said, "We've prepared an office for you, boss and we've put all the reports in there."

Lin Fan gave a nod before saying, "Lead the way."

The staff gave a nod before leading them deeper into the store.

This store was much bigger than the first store in Sunset City, so they had to walk for quite a bit before they reached the office set up in the back.

As for why it was all the way in the back, that was because the space before it was all warehouse for the large amount of products that they had stored.

The Royal Style store didn't just sell the few games and other products that Lin Fan had given Yue Lan in the beginning. He had given her many more product ideas and they had also started importing other things to sell, so now the Royal Style store was known as a place for quality goods and not just unique and novel goods.

With all these new products that they had, the warehouse space that they needed was gigantic.

When they arrived at the office, they found that it wasn't just filled with reports, it was completely packed with reports. 𝐟𝙧ee𝔀e𝐛𝓃𝐨𝚟𝑒𝗹.c𝗼𝚖

With the number of reports that were there, it was hard to even see the desk that had been prepared for them in the center.

Lin Fan couldn't help raising his brow as he asked, "What is going on here? Why are there so many reports? I didn't receive this many back when I was at the dungeon town."

The staff member revealed an awkward look before saying, "There have been many things that have happened in the past two days, that's why there are all these reports."

Lin Fan knitted his brows as he asked, "What happened?"

The staff member had the same awkward look as she said, "It's hard to explain…"

Seeing her look like this, Lin Fan gave a nod and said with a wave of his hand, "You can get back to your work, I'll look over these reports myself."

The staff member gave a nod of gratitude before heading off.

Looking at the mountain of documents in front of him, Lin Fan couldn't help revealing a bitter smile. f𝒓𝗲𝗲𝒘𝑒𝚋ｎoѵ𝒆𝗹.co𝗺

But he had no choice but to start making his way through the mountain of reports.

Mu Bao Bao said, "I'll help you." However, it only took her five minutes to fall asleep.

Lin Fan couldn't help shaking his head as he revealed a bitter smile, but he still covered her up with a blanket.

As he made his way through the documents, Lin Fan couldn't help knitting his brows.

That was because this senior brother Han was really making too many strange movements.

It was one thing to visit the information dealers in the city, but he was also visiting the various medicine shops and weapon stores.

But whenever he went there, he never spent more than ten minutes in the store and he never bought anything. All he did was go into the back with the storekeeper and then he came out as if nothing had happened.

At the same time, he also visited the Mercenary Guild several times a day, almost as if he was searching for something…

Just what was this senior brother Han doing?

Shouldn't he be keeping a low profile as a member of a destroyed sect?

Why would he act this suspiciously?

But another thing that Lin Fan took note of was that there was someone else that had come to Fair White City and had met up with senior brother Han. He didn't know who it was, but he could guess that Mu Bao Bao would have an idea.

All he had to do was wait for her to wake up.

She did wake up when Gu Xiang came into the room, but there was something else that attracted their attention first.

There was a prim and proper little girl who had been cleaned up and was in a pretty blue dress that was brought in front of them.

Both of them couldn't help praising her for how well she had cleaned up.

Naturally this little girl was Xiao Ming.
