Chapter 21 Unexpected Wealth
Shaking his head, Lin Zhendong woke up. Now was not the time to think about this. He tried to touch the corpse with his foot but did not touch anything.
He squatted down and touched his surroundings. He could only touch his shoes, clothes, and saber but couldn’t find the corpse.
“As expected.” Lin Zhendong muttered and kept everything he touched in his storage space.
As for the daggers that were flying everywhere, he looked at this pitch-black place and shook his head helplessly before walking out.
After leaving the dark room to the factory, he could vaguely see through the street lamps outside and the stars in the night sky.
After looking around, he put away the dagger stuck in the cement ground and came to a dilapidated iron bucket.
Lin Zhendong first threw the dagger and the saber into it and took out the assassin’s clothes. It was black hooded sportswear, nothing special about it.
He skillfully rummaged through the pockets and took out some messy things.
There was a mobile phone, a foreign passport, a foreign bank card, which country he didn’t know, and a stack of Zhongyun money.
Lin Zhendong immediately put the Zhongyun money back into his storage space and threw everything else into the metal bucket.
Then, he took out the assassin’s right shoes. He picked up the dagger and cut open the inner sole, digging out a tightly sealed roll.
Lin Zhendong knew that something was hidden in the right shoe because once it entered his storage space, he could sense all the secrets inside and outside of it.
When the scroll was unfolded, it was a special piece of paper.
He didn’t recognize the words, but they were different from the passport.
Just as he was about to throw it into the metal bucket, he suddenly stopped, took out his phone, and translated it with a photo.
He took a deep breath and exclaimed, “Wow! It’s an unregistered bond from the Vulture Kingdom worth one million Vulture coins! ”
After a moment of excitement, he tilted his head and thought, “Hmm, between one million Vulture coins and five hundred gold coins, which is more valuable?”
Lin Zhendong searched on his phone. Ten thousand Zhongyun coins could buy a gold coin, but no one was selling it.
Then, he looked for the exchange rate between Vulture coins and Zhongyun coins. It was 1:6.
“Hehe, not bad, not bad. It is equivalent to getting another 500 gold coins. However, this money could only be used at a big bank, right? Hmm. There’s nothing troublesome about this kind of bearer bond. I can keep it. ”
The bearer bond disappeared in an instant.
Then, Lin Zhendong threw a black flame into the metal bucket and set it on fire.
After a few breaths, another black flame was thrown in.
There was no other way. Previously, his energy had been mostly absorbed. He could only use the black flames one by one. He could not use them ten times.
His clothes were quickly burned to ashes, and then the dagger, saber, and metal bucket began to melt. It impressed Lin Zhendong. He did not expect the temperature of the black flames to be so high.
However, he was also relieved. After being burned into molten iron, there would be no traces left.
Then, Lin Zhendong heaved a sigh of relief.
“It’s a pity that I’ve used up all my energy. I’ll need at least two days to recover. If I want to see the true skill of the Wood Elemental Shadow, I’ll have to wait for another two days.”
“This skill consumes too much energy. Not only will it absorb all of my energy before using it, but it will also continuously consume my energy and spiritual energy during its use. It’s an ultimate move. I hope it’s useful.” After confirming this, Lin Zhendong quickly ran out of the street and moved towards a popular place. At the same time, he took out his phone and called for a taxi.
As for the messy scene, Lin Zhendong was too lazy to care about it. No one would come to this place unless it was specially done.
Most importantly, there was no corpse, so even if someone who came here out of curiosity saw some traces, they wouldn’t report it to the authorities.
After a while, all traces would be covered by dust.
Lin Zhendong finally managed to get a taxi.
Not long after he got into the car, his phone suddenly rang.
Looking at the number, it was Yang Wen from Bauhinia Legion, who was stationed in Riverside City.
Yang Wen’s anxious voice immediately sounded when the call was connected. “Sir, I’m very sorry. We found out that an assassin had accepted an order to kill you. We didn’t expect the Vodun Sect to use this trick. We were careless and let the assassin come to Riverside City. But don’t worry. We’ll deal with him as soon as possible!”
“No need. I’ve already taken care of it.” Lin Zhendong said casually.
“Uh, you mean that the assassin has already found you?” Yang Wen was a little surprised.
“Just now. I just finished killing him.” Lin Zhendong said.
“I’m extremely sorry! Sir, this is our mistake. We will compensate you!” Yang Wen immediately said respectfully.
“Ah, no need, no need. It’s also because I didn’t listen to your advice. I went to a remote place to give others a chance. It has nothing to do with you.” Lin Zhendong quickly refused. He did indeed think so because he did not believe that if he did not leave the school, an E-rank assassin would dare to come to the Special Protection Department and the school to assassinate him.
Therefore, if he had listened to the Bauhinia Legion’s advice and not gone to a remote place, the assassin would have been found and taken care of by the Bauhinia Legion. He would not have had the chance to personally take care of the assassin.
“No, this is caused by us. We must compensate you for your shock.” Yang Wen said firmly. Then, without waiting for Lin Zhendong to speak, he asked, “Sir, where were you attacked? We’ll help you clean up the mess!”
Lin Zhendong didn’t want them to go to the scene to check on him and find out his background. Naturally, he refused. “No need. I’ve cleaned up everything thoroughly. Trust me. Even if there are loose ends, it won’t be a big deal given my status.”
As soon as Lin Zhendong said this, Yang Wen guessed something and immediately changed his tone and hung up.
The driver had been listening attentively, but it was clear he wasn’t skilled enough to pick up the sounds on the other end of the phone, which had been intentionally lowered. He only took a glance at Lin Zhendong through the rearview mirror and thought to himself, “Just a young man with a different tone of voice,” didn’t think much of it.
and Lin Zhendong left the car a long way away from the family compound. He then took out his textbook and walked toward the family compound while humming a song. He was no different from other high school students who went home after evening self-study. He swiped his card and greeted Grandpa Li, who was humming a song, “Grandpa Li!”
“Oh, Dongdong, you’re back. Have you eaten? Your Uncle Chen and the others have also returned.” Grandpa Li smiled. “Wow, Uncle Li and the rest have finally completed their mission and returned? ” Lin Zhendong was delighted. When he was about to run, he suddenly thought of something and asked, “Grandpa Li, you’re very knowledgeable. Can you tell which country’s language this is from?” As he spoke, he repeated the assassin’s words. Grandpa Li reached out and slapped Lin Zhendong’s forehead. “That’s a curse word from the Gallia Nation. Where did you learn it?”
“Gallia? The country that regards that filthy river as its mother river?” Lin Zhendong was stunned. “It’s an arrogant country. Did you se foreigners on the streets?” Grandpa Li’s eyes were shining as he asked.
“Yeah, I met someone shouting in a flustered and exasperated manner on the street.” Lin Zhendong smiled and said, “When I heard this language, I immediately remembered it.”
“If you’re so free, isn’t it better to focus on studying? Alright, go back quickly.” Grandpa Li waved his hand.
Seeing Lin Zhendong jumping into the family building, Grandpa Li grinned and said, “This kid is still inexperienced. The true meaning of the Gallia words is, ‘Why are you so powerful?
This shouldn’t be an F-rank bounty! I’ve suffered a huge loss!””
Grandpa Li smiled and shook his head. He didn’t do anything and continued to hum the old song.
