Immediately after, another gunshot rang out, a large hole appeared in the chest of the man.

"Which bastard did this?" An angry shout echoed, "Is this murder to silence someone?"

"If you can't speak, then just don't," a sinister voice responded.

"I'm the one who killed him, I wasn't planning to do it, but… it happened. I'm from the Fortune Casino!"

"You dare oppose me from the Fortune Casino?" The shout grew louder, "I'm from the Defense Team!"

"What about being from the Defense Team?" The sinister voice sneered, "Come investigate my Fortune Casino, then."

Who in their right mind, running a high-end casino, would fear the Defense Team's lackeys?

In the end, a Defense Team member shouted again, "The one killed with the dagger, he's with my Defense Team."

Well, now the guy from the casino didn't dare to speak.

A Defense Team member was killed, another defend member injured the killer, eventually, he killed the person.

This whole logic trail, he couldn't clear himself even if he had a hundred mouths.

But couldn't clear himself? Well, it's out of his hands!

Two stout men came down from the building next door, entered this building, "Come on, you from the Fortune Casino, get down here!"

Initially intended to keep an eye on Bentley and Qu Jianlei, the group ended up making a mess themselves.

More than one Defense Team member was watching, the gutsy ones got caught by the other side, there's nothing to be done.

"Memory Potion of Truth," someone sighed lightly—after all, people from Houjing have seen plenty. "How generous."

This stuff is so precious, it'd surely be used on important figures, and the other party used it on a tracking lackey?

"Was that true memory?" Someone was astonished, then started laughing, "The Defense Team will be troubled now."

"No one noticed, does the other party have a lot of serums?" Someone muttered, "From now on, nothing could make me track again."

Meanwhile, two people freed themselves from their tails and started chatting.

"Old Ben, as far as I recall, the Memory Potion of Truth is quite expensive, right?"

Bentley responded casually, "It's not about money, it's a high-end controlled item in Central City, do you think it's about money?"

Qu Jianlei sighed softly, "Actually, we're… not poor."

Bentley was silent, after a while he said, "If willing to be mediocre… indeed not poor."

"But can't be mediocre," Qu Jianlei murmured, "Trying to make some money, but so many are watching. What kind of world is this!"

"A world that eats people," Bentley answered nonchalantly, "If you don't want to be eaten, strive to be strong."

Jian Lei received news of testing a new ventilation system, it quickly reached the Celestial Craft Repair Factory.

Xue Mantian, with his arm in a sling, found his boss, "That guy is still taking orders, clearly doesn't regard Celestial Craftsmanship!"

The boss was a small old man, his eyes gleaming with wisdom, "How's your hand?"

Xue Mantian's eyes flickered with sadness, "Ruined, can only train apprentices in the future."

His hand was crushed into a comminuted fracture by Bentley, even Houjing's best orthopedists in the Celestial District couldn't save it.

A dignified B-level Maintenance Master, most of his skills in his hands, how could he not feel resentment?

However, he didn't worry about being dismissed, for he still had sharp eyes and a wealth of experience.

"Hmm, train good apprentices," the boss nodded, "The other party has the Memory Potion of Truth, not easy to provoke."

Actually, in the beginning, he didn't plan to use such means against Jian Lei, aiming to solve issues through coordination.

Xue Mantian volunteered to go since he had always been in charge of maintaining the Defense Team's Mecha.

After Xue Mantian's retreat, the boss couldn't say he was wrong—after all, it was for Celestial Craftsmanship's interest.

Not easy to provoke? Xue Mantian's eyes flickered with surprise, "So, let him be carefree? What about Celestial Craftsmanship's reputation?"

The small old man touched his chin, after pondering, spoke again, "Those two… may not be just two."

"Even to only deal with these two, quite a price must be paid, do you think it's worth it?"

Xue Mantian answered straightforwardly, "Boss, you once said, pure businessmen are lambs."

"Our Celestial Craftsmanship, never forget to be wolfish businessmen, not lambs!"

The small old man was shocked for a moment, then laughed, "Indeed, as I age, I've grown timid."

"You're cautious," Xue Mantian subtly flattered, then furrowed his brow indicated.

"But with cooperating with the military, too many are watching, we can't afford to be weak."

The small old man touched his chin again, shook his head in amusement, "You are… really making trouble for me."

(First Update, tribute to master "Green Waist Luo Luo")——————

Qu Jianlei certainly couldn't calculate that the tracked Defense Team member was later killed.

Two days later, Bentley got the news, only then did he briefly mention it.

Honestly, Qu Jianlei was quite surprised by this, "Starr didn't bother you?"

"Why would they bother me?" Bentley asked in confusion, "If the person didn't die but suffered brain damage, there might be trouble."

Not only in Wasteland, Blue Star was the same, people matter while they're alive, but when gone, what's there to say?

Qu Jianlei asked again, "Who did the killing?"

Bentley's expression turned a bit peculiar, "An adventurer from out of town, suspect of many cases, entered Houjing under a false identity."

Qu Jianlei keenly picked up on this point, "Reminds you of your past?"

"I came from Central City," Bentley replied proudly, "Would not sink to such levels."
