Fortunately, Zhou Six is a "place where rules are respected," and no one has heard news of that man and woman being caught.

So the mother and daughter lived a hard life, but they hadn't suffered any great misfortune.

The only anxiety was that income couldn't cover the expenses, and the feeling of living off savings wasn't pleasant.

One day, Cindy discussed with her daughter, "There is a convoy willing to give us a lift; why don't we move to another Settlement?"

"I'm not leaving," Claire stated bluntly, "If we leave and the boss and second sister return, how will they find us?"

She never complained about Qu Jianlei and Flower Scorpion; that kind of life was what she aspired to.

Cindy sighed helplessly, "If we don't leave, we won't even be able to afford the fare."

"Then let's buy a gun and hunt," Claire gritted her teeth, "I'd rather die under the sharp claws of a beast."

Unable to hold back, tears streamed down Cindy's face.

At that moment, there was a commotion outside the door, and three or four people walked in. By their attire and demeanor, it was clear they were from the city.

Leading them was a slightly chubby middle-aged man, who sighed with relief, "So you're still here..."

He had been asking around on his way here, knowing Cindy had been putting out feelers for relocation, currently searching for a vehicle with room.

Upon hearing this, Cindy quickly wiped away her tears and calmly stated, "No need for you to chase us away, I've already arranged for transportation."

"Wait, don't," the middle-aged man's sweat almost broke out.

"There are some misunderstandings here... Our previous actions might have been a bit simple and rude."

He had to admit fault because someone of exceptional influence, whom he ordinarily wouldn't even be able to contact, had spoken.

"If anything happens to that mother and daughter, I suggest you hurry up and commit suicide, lest a peaceful death becomes a luxury when the time comes!"

In the hunting zones of Zhou Six, Ultimate Warriors sometimes appear, and he trembled as he asked, "Is it the Ultimate Warrior?"

That eminent person didn't get angry—this issue was too important and needed clear explanation.

"Ultimate Warrior? Heh, even Ultimate Warriors tremble!"

The middle-aged man was nearly scared to death upon hearing this and took charge personally, leading his team there.

Seeing the mother and daughter wanting to leave, he couldn't allow it.

Nonetheless, Cindy thought that if they insisted on leaving, perhaps Claire, despite her hatred for Zhou Six, might agree to follow her.

She knew her daughter's temperament all too well.

The middle-aged man dared not let them just walk away; he offered all sorts of generous conditions.

The confiscated house was returned for free, their residential status was not a problem, and he promised a comfortable, high-paying job.

In the end, he even offered generous compensation for emotional distress, a small room exchanged for a villa, and... Claire's schooling.

The last promise was what thoroughly moved Cindy, and she agreed to stay.

However, she refused the villa; she couldn't afford it, nor did she want her daughter to develop bad habits.

Claire wore a distressed expression, "School... I really don't want to go to school."

The middle-aged man chatted with her briefly and decisively said, "I can enroll you in Hunter School."

Claire was thrilled upon hearing this, but Cindy was troubled, smacking her forehead and sighing deeply, "Still can't escape it."

After everything was sorted out, the middle-aged man couldn't resist asking, "Who do you know that's so influential?"

Claire proudly answered, "My boss and second sister are very capable, especially the boss."

The middle-aged man rolled his eyes upon hearing this, thinking he had never heard of fugitives having such great influence.

Cindy acted more steadily, and without revealing anything, replied that her late husband used to work for the City Guard and might have come into contact with someone distinguished.

The middle-aged man felt this answer was unreliable, but... theoretically, it was possible.

Anyway, he had decided to treat this mother and daughter well from now on.

A presence that even Ultimate Warriors dare not provoke, how could he possibly disrespect them?

Qu Jianlei heard about Cindy and her daughter three days later.

During these three days, he meditated silently, with an aura that continuously fluctuated.

This was partly because he just broke through, but mainly due to his extreme emotional fluctuations.

Ma Long and Xiao Qin dared not leave, fearing he might lose his mind and do something crazy.

Sensing the aura in the room, Ma Long couldn't help but ask softly, "Xiao Qin, do you think it feels like... B-level?"

Xiao Qin shook her head and whispered, "I really don't know, too bad the boss isn't here; otherwise, he could judge."

Three days later, Black Panther came to report personally, relaying the information he had gathered and expressing his intent to continue monitoring.

Upon hearing that Cindy and Claire were safe, Qu Jianlei finally emerged from the room.

He was haggard, mumbling under his breath, "Thank you, Black Panther."

(First update, Master He Meng "Jiulong Bureau Qing Yi.") ——————

Qu Jianlei emerged from the room and first invited everyone to a feast, thanking them for their three-day companionship.

Although he said this, there was no smile on his face, which was evident to everyone.

After the meal, he asked the three to leave, saying he was fine now.

Ma Long was fine with it; he wasn't great at caregiving, but Xiao Qin resolutely disagreed. She had witnessed Qu Jianlei's madness before.

Ultimately, she stated, "Boss is very, very concerned about you, and if I'm here, I can pass on new information from him first."

Qu Jianlei couldn't resist her reasoning and arranged a room for her to stay temporarily.

Nonetheless, Xiao Qin was genuinely worn out and ended up sleeping soundly that night.

Xiao Moshan finally arrived gracefully, "I came late, Jian Lei... is it last time's Terry?"
