Chapter 1127 - 502: Ellipsis Is a Profound Subject _2

Along with the sound of chains grinding, the door lock was unlocked... first layer.Brother Sun, who habitually helped push the door, found it wouldn’t budge, and looked at the door crack in confusion, discovering there was another lock.

"It’s not fully unlocked yet." Wei Xuan smiled and started replacing it with another labeled key.

"Wow, a three-layer lock on your door," Brother Sun scratched his head and teased with a smile, "Looks like only treasures are parked here, Lin Li is lucky."

"It’s not exactly treasures, but there’s no choice. This place is too remote, with a big area. We often encounter thieves who come to steal parts, caught three just last year. Didn’t you notice the glass shards on the wall and the barbed wire are new? They’re all to prevent those kinds of people, even installed several cameras, but full coverage is too expensive and these car thieves deliberately damage them.

In the end, the company decided the dumb method was more suitable."

Wei Xuan shrugged indifferently, her tone was rather nonchalant.

After all, what’s stolen is the company’s property, and the company doesn’t pay her enough to feel outraged.

Review, this is called working with peace of mind.

[The external threats continue to increase, the Empire ought to unite and respond, but troubles at home always accompany external threats, there are always those who covet mechas that don’t belong to them, committing despicable thefts, violating the Empire’s law.

This behavior and trend absolutely cannot be condoned. Each theft decreases the success rate of repelling external enemies. As a recognized member, it is not allowed!]

[Timed quest triggered!]

[Quest two: Within two months, prevent and punish at least three (0/3) incidents of mecha theft.]

[Quest reward: Physical Improvement: Mecha Synchronization Index +20; Random Mecha Ability; System Currency*200]

Lin Li, who was originally waiting for the door to open, raised an eyebrow at the popped-up system message.

Look, my plan is simply perfect.

This just started, I haven’t even done anything yet and already triggered a quest.

And it’s one of those classic punishment quests.

Looks like the Xiling Black Silk Hero is about to appear again.

Uncle Yang, Uncle Yan, here comes your small performance~

At this time, it shows the advantage of Wei Xuan being a female.

Among the people Lin Li knows, with some second-hand car resources, there’s also driving school coach Yu Jian’an. But since most of his resources are with buddies, Lin Li, without hesitation, threw himself into Brother Sun’s embrace.

The newbie is smiling, who cares if the old one is crying.

Lin Li thinks, if he hired a male agent, no matter how much he babbled, in the eyes of the system, it’s as if he’s not a creature from the mecha world, unable to trigger a quest.

When thinking of this, Lin Li raised his eyebrows again.

This means this quest might be more difficult than the "Carefree Powder" quest.

Not only because Carefree Powder only needs two counter units while this quest needs three, but also because there’s a high probability that even if a male suspect is caught stealing vehicles, in the system’s eyes, it’s nothing and won’t count as a task data occurrence.

So this time, I must catch a female thief?

Frowning and then relaxing, Lin Li took out his phone.

It’s time to send out the task assignment.

"Lin Li poked ’Stool’s hemorrhoids and found it quite amusing."

"Lin Li: Respond if you see this."

"Stool: 11111 Bro, I’m here, always have been."

"Lin Li: Wild Emperor, we have a new job."

"Stool: Bro, what’s the case this time?"

"Lin Li: It’s related to vehicles, like stealing electric bikes, car parts, or even entire cars, all count."

"Stool: Oh, understood, I’ll immediately pass this on to Li Sheng’s side."

"Lin Li: By the way, stealing things like high-speed trains, planes, or tunnel borers works too."

Lin Li suddenly remembered that one of his quest triggers was while riding a high-speed train, recalling that these electric vehicles also count as system-recognized mechas, so he expanded the scope.

"Stool: ...?"

"Stool: Bro, do you call that ’also works’? Brother Sheng is just a regular guy, seems like quite a gap from terrorists, Bro, the cases involving stealing these might be tough."

"Lin Li: Just expanding the scope for you, didn’t say it must include these cases, the simplest electric bike or car part thefts, I can accept, but this time there’s an additional requirement."

"Stool: What’s up, Bro, you tell me."

"Lin Li: There must be female involvement in the cases, a woman must be arrested as well."

"Stool: Huh?"

"Stool: Bro, why is that?"

"Lin Li: Fans on the Black Silk Hero website are upset, a female fan said since Black Silk Hero’s debut, I’ve only caught men, apparently discriminating against women, even though I announced my support for changing ’British Empire’ to ’Big Ghost Head Country’, it didn’t help. To quell the public outcry, I must capture a woman this time to set the record straight."

"Stool: O.O"

"Stool: Bro, you actually have an official website?"

"Lin Li: You’re focusing on the wrong thing."

"Stool: Bro, send me the website link, I’ll follow and definitely help you straighten it out."

"Stool withdrew a message."

"Stool: Bro, do you have any specific requirements for the female, like age or appearance? If beauty is needed, how pretty should they be? Any specific requests on height or bust?"

Lin Li: "?"

The campus intelligence ’Stool’, since when did he moonlight as a madam?

Trying to organize a beauty pageant for me here.

What, when the time comes, I’m going to threaten her by saying ’ma’am, you wouldn’t want your boyfriend to find out you stole a battery to support him’, right?

Thorough investigation of the female thief?

What a reverse police officer series, forget it, though amusing.

"Lin Li: No need, as long as they’re biologically female, and self-identify as a pure-blood female, no requirements for age or appearance. I’m merely planning on carrying out normal justice activity, don’t overthink."

"Stool: Oh, Bro, I got it."

"Stool: Alright, I’ll go tell Li Sheng all the requirements; for cases like electric bikes or cars, he probably has friends in the business, but not sure about females, if not, might take some time."

"Lin Li: OK, no problem, keep me updated."

"Stool: Got it, Bro."

The chat came to a temporary halt, as for Yangliang and Yan Aosong, Lin Li simply didn’t bother contacting them.

Asking whether they can take me along, beyond doubt, these two uncles won’t let me join. So there’s no point in giving them a heads-up, it would just hang a Damocles’ sword over their heads. Instead, better to give them a surprise when the time comes.

The three locks on the front door have been unlocked, Wei Xuan and Brother Sun just got in the car and drove it into the parking lot. At this moment, both were inside waving at Lin Li, who was playing with his phone at the entrance, motioning for him to come in.

"Here I come." Lin Li hurried over.

Although a task has already been triggered, achieving his goal, it’s not like there’s a rule that you can only trigger one quest a day. Maybe another task will be triggered in the upcoming events, and since I’m here, I might as well stick to the original plan and explore further.

As he walked closer, Lin Li noticed that a special attention message had been sent to him on his phone.

"’Chen Yu Ying’ patted ’Lin Li’s’ Book of Life and Death, merit -999"

"Chen Yu Ying: ?"

"’Chen Yu Ying’ patted ’Chen Yu Ying’s’ wooden fish, merit +999"

"Lin Li: Baby, I’ve got a plan. I want to put a blind person on a treadmill and tell him to just keep going and he can get home."

"Chen Yu Ying: ?"

"’Chen Yu Ying’ patted ’Chen Yu Ying’s’ wooden fish, merit +999"

"Lin Li: Hee hee, so what’s up, can’t suppress your longing for me already?"

"Chen Yu Ying: Definitely not."

"Chen Yu Ying: Isn’t the exam at Pingjiang Middle School the day after tomorrow? The travel plan has been informed to the parents by the teacher, so my parents asked me how I plan to get there."

"Lin Li: Oh, that, so what did you say, going with your family car or taking the bus?"

"Chen Yu Ying: My dad adamantly said he would take the time to drive me to the exam. Young Master Lin, you tell me, why is that?"

"Lin Li: Maid, your sentence should end with a ’?’ or ’!’, not a ’.’, punctuation is crucial for expressing the content. Many times, changing the punctuation alters the sentence’s meaning."

"Lin Li: For example, when you intended to say ’I’ll eat hot pot tonight.’, but you say ’I’ll eat punctuation marks tonight.’, see how the meaning completely changes?"

"Chen Yu Ying: ?????"
