Full-Time Public Enemy-Chapter 733 - 514: [Hacker Bomb]_3

By now, no one would dare to dream of "harming" Miergre.

Such an existence, ordinary people can't even request Its presence, let alone know the method to contact It. Could it be that the Star State is retaliating against me? Chen Gu speculated.

Then, Chen Gu opened the case file for this incident. The coincidence that the assassination attempt came when he was rushing to Nie Dun No. 6 made it hard not to link the two events together.

However, from the information currently at hand, Chen Gu found it really difficult to find any connection between the two incidents.

"Director Qiu," Chen Gu called out.

Qiu Wuben came quickly, nodding and bowing, "Your Excellency, I'm here."

This man is someone who has "deep relations" with the Director-General; I have to serve him well, Qiu Wuben thought. He secretly sized Chen Gu up and couldn't help but admire him. It's no wonder the Director-General favors him for his looks.

Chen Gu asked, "How's the situation at the Xiaogasa Family's factory?"

Qiu Wuben replied, "Before your departure, I had already sealed off the entire factory area. Related shippers, suppliers, and transportation channels have all been included in our surveillance scope."

Chen Gu couldn't help but nod with satisfaction. "Good. Prepare the car. We'll head over right away."

"Don't you need to rest a bit more?" Qiu Wuben asked solicitously.

Chen Gu waved his hand. "I'm fine."

Chen Jixian, on the other hand, went silently to the nearby ward. He dragged Wu Yihuo, who was still connected to various tubes, up and said, "Let's go."

In pain, Wu Yihuo wailed, "I'm still injured..."

Chen Jixian was relentless. "You're the Hell Titan. Into battle with your injuries!"

I have no choice. What can I, a mere special agent, say against a leader? Wu Yihuo thought.

Seeing that Wu Yihuo didn't persist, Chen Jixian secretly sighed in relief. It would be truly awkward to go with Chen Gu alone. And because of that shout of "Dad," I actually feel a bit... ashamed.

Transportation was already waiting. Chen Gu and his two companions quickly left for the Matsuyama Garment Factory.

After all, the Xiaogasa Family Head was not a top-tier powerhouse and received the news a bit late. He was so startled upon hearing the name "Miergre" that the teacup in his hand nearly dropped.

Who wants to harm our Xiaogasa Family?! And to engage Miergre, the cost would be incredibly high. Such an influential entity operating from behind the scenes—is this to doom us?!

The Xiaogasa Family Head was in a panic. He even thought about going directly to Aviloya to confess everything that happened on Nie Dun No. 6, then seeking protection from the Bureau of Mystic Security and that Ninth Power Level entity.

But I dare not. If I really speak up, Aviloya will surely throw me into prison for "protective detention," he thought.

He gritted his teeth. "Knowing about our Xiaogasa Family's affairs on Nie Dun No. 6, knowing about our history with Miergre—these are our highest level secrets! We must find the traitor!"

In a dilapidated small Taoist temple, a disheveled old Taoist priest suddenly looked up in a certain direction. It wasn't just him; the owners of the other structures in the Divine Realm also noticed that a powerful entity had entered.

The old Taoist muttered to himself, "Looking for me?"

Outside the temple, a voice had already sounded, "Old man, I'm coming in."

The old Taoist priest huffed, "What wind has blown our distinguished Principal here?"

The Principal said with disdain, "You don't need to be so wary of me. I didn't come to trouble you."

The old Taoist flew into a rage. "Am I afraid of you?"

The Principal shrugged indifferently. "Actually, I should thank you. You've helped one of my students."

"Student?" The old Taoist calculated with his fingers—literally—and exclaimed, "It's that boy!"

"Yes, him. He never causes anything but worry," the Principal complained, yet his face showed traces of poorly hidden pride.

The old Taoist was truly green with envy. "You have reached the Ninth Power Level. You already have Aviloya, a student at the Ninth Power Level. And that boy... has a very high chance of reaching the Ninth Power Level, as long as he doesn't fall prematurely. Your luck truly defies the heavens!"

The Principal's expression suddenly darkened. "But Miergre wants to kill him! Old Taoist, tell me where Miergre is. Name your price!"

The old Taoist shook his head repeatedly. "Would I dare to divine the whereabouts of a super lifeform? Am I insane?"

The Principal frowned, but before he could lash out, the old Taoist added, "Don't try to intimidate me. I'm an old man, not easily scared. You didn't come here to actually fight that metal head, did you? Honestly, what do you want?"

The Principal glared. "You think I can't defeat it?"

The old Taoist issued an ultimatum. "Are you going to say it or not? If you do, and I can help, I will. After all, I've also placed my bets on that boy. If you don't, I'm going to sleep, and no one will be able to wake me."

Only then did the Principal say, "Tell Miergre I want to know who hired it. It should realize it's been duped."

"Understood." The old Taoist waved his hand.

The Matsuyama Garment Factory was built at the foot of a hillside covered with an ancient forest of bluish-red trees. These native trees were somewhat similar to pines.
