Chapter 1011: Chapter 406: Second Confrontation Chapter 1011: Chapter 406: Second Confrontation Yan Fei stored the eight large boxes into the Universal Space and immediately noticed that the number of Drone Upgrade Essential Items had become 5, which was an increase of 4 from before; he could hardly believe his eyes. It should be known that every time he had obtained a Drone Upgrade Essential Item in the past, he had to go through a lot of hardship, even risking his life. But never had he experienced such simplicity as today, acquiring more than two Upgrade Essential Items at once.

However, this was good news for Yan Fei because it would accelerate the upgrade speed of his Drone Avatar. Yan Fei calmed his excited emotions and checked the Auxiliary Brain again, only to see that the display really read 5/10 Drone Upgrade Essential Items, confirming that he truly had obtained four Drone Upgrade Essential Items at once.

Additionally, the notification from the Auxiliary Brain about discovering Upgrade Essential Items had disappeared. This proved that the Drone Upgrade Essential Items previously detected were indeed inside those eight boxes, and they had been collected by Yan Fei. Nothing he needed was left here now.

Although Yan Fei wanted to check what the four Upgrade Essential Items looked like right away, it was not convenient in the underground dark river. Thus, he decided to rush back to his Quadrangle Courtyard residence to find the Upgrade Essential Items from among the eight boxes.

Unlike Yan Fei who had successfully killed his enemy, Yang Liu, and accidentally obtained four Drone Upgrade Essential Items, Zhuge Liuyun was somewhat displeased. He was ordered by the organization to immediately leave the villa complex of the Yang Liu family and no longer provide Yang Liu with security protection. Although Zhuge Liuyun complied with the order and left, he was very unwilling, insisting on monitoring Yan Fei near the Quadrangle Courtyard where he lived, trying to find evidence of Yan Fei's murder of Yang Liu.

Gu Xiaolan, unable to dissuade the stubborn Zhuge Liuyun, could only accompany him to the vicinity of the Quadrangle. Zhuge Liuyun brought Gu Xiaolan to a room full of surveillance screens, which displayed monitoring footage of Yan Fei's Quadrangle Courtyard, with several people busy working beside them.

Gu Xiaolan was curious and asked, “Liuyun, isn't this the surveillance team from our organization? When did you bring them here to monitor Yan Fei's Quadrangle Courtyard?”

Whenever Gu Xiaolan and Zhuge Liuyun made moves, they would communicate with each other and then come up with a unified action plan. There was never an instance where one party acted alone. It was because of their mutual trust and collaborative strategies that they were able to be meticulous and earn the grand reputation of the Four Major Detectives. Yet Gu Xiaolan was completely unaware of the surveillance operation on Yan Fei's Quadrangle Courtyard, which was why she asked the question.

Zhuge Liuyun said, “Xiaolan, I've known for a while that Yan Fei wanted to kill Yang Liu, so these past few days, I've had them monitor here to catch Yan Fei in the act of murder. Once I have the evidence, I'll arrest him immediately. I want to see if Yan Fei can still be so smug when facing me.”

Gu Xiaolan, looking at Zhuge Liuyun, who became deranged with jealousy, was very worried. Compared to the once ordinary and now successful Yan Fei, the once brilliant Zhuge Liuyun now seemed to pale in comparison, which made Zhuge Liuyun, who had always held himself above Yan Fei, increasingly jealous. He was determined to use every means to find Yan Fei's weaknesses and then knock him down, regaining his sense of superiority.

This dangerous jealousy was not very apparent at first, but as Dream Island became increasingly successful, even to the point that The United States of America compromised with Dream Island, Zhuge Liuyun became more and more insane. Always thinking of knocking down Yan Fei, he would cling to any opportunity to keep a close watch on him.

Zhuge Liuyun was excitedly staring at the surveillance screens in front of him, then he suddenly laughed and said, “I just realized that the organization moving us away from the villa complex of the Yang family is actually the most advantageous to us.”

Gu Xiaolan asked, “Why would you say that?”

Zhuge Liuyun replied, “Think about it. If we had stayed there, when Yan Fei appeared to kill Yang Liu, we would surely have intervened. Even if we discovered Yan Fei's true face, we wouldn't be able to charge him with murder. But after we left, Yang Liu, without our protection, would surely die. And we could just wait here, to find the evidence of Yan Fei committing the murder, allowing us to make him face justice.”

Gu Xiaolan didn't share her opinion on Zhuge Liuyun's words. She said, “Liuyun, you could look at Yan Fei's progress from another angle. The better Yan Fei does, isn't it proof that our University's China Genius Class was very impressive? You were the most talented in the class, naturally far more capable than Yan Fei. That's undeniable and well understood by those who know. So why do you have to target Yan Fei, to prove to others that you're stronger than him?”

Zhuge Liuyun dissatisfied with Gu Xiaolan's words, snorted coldly and said, “Xiaolan, do you think I've become an ordinary person, never to achieve as much as Yan Fei in a lifetime? So you don't want me to compare myself with him?”

Gu Xiaolan said, “I never thought that way. I just believe that a person's success cannot be separated from the right time, the right place, and the right people. Those who succeed might just have good luck and it doesn't mean they're stronger than us. Moreover, Yan Fei's strength lies in his good luck and economic development, he can't possibly have our ability to pursue criminals, nor can he become a world-renowned Famous Detective like you.”
