Chapter 885: Chapter 848: Fellow Villager_2

Despite some reluctance, Song Lan still resignedly pulled back the covers and began getting dressed.

Lu Xiang sat on the edge of the bed, slipping on his shirt while comforting him, "Actually, this may not be such a bad thing."

"A good thing?"

"When Xin Ge Xi was the founder of Kolo Film Industry, he fostered a large number of criminals. Where do you think they usually hang out? The black market is where they ’make a living.’

While Song Lan was at the ’Master of Rescuers’ program, she was not idle either. She organized the information stored in the ’Sea of Souls,’ and now the entire fourth district had no secrets from her.

Where was the black market located?

Who were the main members?

How were assignments posted?

Having grown accustomed to the permissions of the ’Sea of Souls,’ she only needed to think about it, and the information would be detailedly listed before her eyes, even the bounty matter—she also planned to visit the black market.

Now, with Song Lan’s company, there was an added layer of enjoyment to this trip to the black market.

She pulled out the luggage from under the bed and took out the props she bought that afternoon—two cartoon animal masks.

"Wear these when we go to the black market. No one wants their true identity known there, so think of it as going along with local custom."

According to the information from the ’Sea of Souls,’ the black market had numerous businesses.

Murder and smuggling were just a few; most assignments were sending threatening letters, door-to-door intimidation, collecting protection fees, and Destruction of regular film shooting. The criminals gathered there were mostly the small-time thugs who couldn’t make it big. It was hard to find a truly ruthless and cold-blooded Assassin.

Including these criminals fostered by Xin Ge Xi in their sweep was part of their plan, which was also the job of Law Enforcers.

Lu Xiang was naturally opposed to criminals, no matter where she was, and that would never change.

Boarding the hovercar, Lu Xiang brought out her tablet, which contained the information she had organized earlier.

"There’s only one person who deserves attention—Vadim, originally from the seventeenth district, with at least a dozen lives on his hands."

Vadim’s photo appeared on the tablet.

His face was covered with scars, perfectly matching Song Lan’s imagination of a gang member.

"A fellow countryman?"

"...You could say that."

Lu Xiang always felt the term "fellow countryman" sounded strange, but considering Song Lan’s style, in his view, "friend," "buddy," "fellow countryman" probably weren’t considered favorable terms.

"How does this Vadim compare to Chai Ke?"

As soon as "fellow countryman" came up, Song Lan had to use the former emperor of the underworld of the seventeenth district as a benchmark. Mr. Chai Ke, with a bounty of over 600,000 volts, set the measure for local criminals.

"He came to the fourth district because he had offended Chai Ke."

Lu Xiang emphasized Vadim’s "glorious deeds" from the past.

In the struggle for territory, Vadim killed one of Chai Ke’s most trusted men and nearly caused serious harm to Chai Ke with a car bomb. Chai Ke was Lucky that night; after getting drunk, he was dragged onto the hovercar of a Law Enforcer supervisor. Otherwise, even with his over 20% Prosthesis Modification, the car bomb would have been enough trouble for him.

"After the assassination of Chai Ke was exposed and the Law Enforcers got involved, Vadim had no choice but to flee the seventeenth district... His style is different from Chai Ke’s. He doesn’t trust others and prefers to do things himself."

"Such a ruthless character exists?"

Song Lan exclaimed in surprise.

From the description on the electronic handbook, he could feel the shock and awe of that night.

If Vadim had a bit more Luck, the throne of the emperor of the underworld in the seventeenth district might have changed hands.

This made his expression grow more solemn, "So, what we are dealing with now is an opponent comparable to Chai Ke in prowess."

"...Yes."

Lu Xiang sighed and put her hand to her forehead. At least before being forced to flee the seventeenth district, Vadim was one of the few gang leaders who dared to compete with Chai Ke for territory. Yet the serious tone of this Dumb Bird made it sound as if they were discussing an existence on the level of the Gene Master.

It made her not want to continue the conversation anymore.

But with a sense of responsibility, Lu Xiang continued, "However, after coming to the fourth district, Vadim was Lucky. He gained the favor of Xin Ge Xi because his tolerance for prosthetic implantation was exceptional. During his time in the fourth district, Kolo Film Industry has already secretly performed 7 Prosthesis Modification surgeries on him, and he rapidly used the resources of the black market to build a new force."

Vadim was on his way to becoming the top criminal of the fourth district.

In the future plans of Kolo Film Industry, Vadim was considered a "major tonic," potentially able to "cultivate" a new national-level rescuer for the company.

It’s just that Xin Ge Xi hadn’t decided how to use this "major tonic" before he met his untimely demise.

Song Lan’s expression became even more serious, "So, you’re saying that Vadim, who underwent seven prosthetic implantations, might now have combat abilities that surpass Chai Ke’s?"

"Can you please stop bringing up Chai Ke!"

Lu Xiang slapped Song Lan’s thigh with a "smack," his tone of alarm making her nervous. She said, "Chai Ke’s compatibility with prosthetics isn’t good, and many of the parts in his body are smuggled second-hand goods. It’s already Lucky that he hasn’t developed Cyber psychosis."
