Let’s Squander A Billion First!

Chapter 2032: Chapter 2032: Questioning Immortals at the Yellow Springs (Part 5)

The Pu Family had just finished a wedding, and now they’re arranging a funeral as the news of Pu Zicheng’s death spreads.

Many people find it absurd.

A few days ago, Pu Zicheng was lively and energetic, and now, two days later, he’s gone?

The Pu Family claimed he died of an illness.

What kind of illness could take a perfectly healthy person in just a few days?

The Pu Family is also at a loss; they don’t know why Pu Zicheng suddenly succumbed to an illness.

Reporters who love a good scoop camp outside every day, hoping to dig up some news.

Everyone is waiting to see what big news will finally erupt from this event, but instead of the Pu Family’s big news breaking, people start noticing that there are continuous deaths around them.

It’s either famous figures or the friends and family of famous figures who are dying.

Many people are young, yet they pass away mysteriously.

One is normal, two is a coincidence, three, four... what about countless more?

Suddenly, so many people are gone, and various rumors spread on the internet.

”Could it be some kind of contagious disease?”

”Speaking of which, a relative in my family died recently too...”

”I think it’s a contagious disease; otherwise, how could so many people die at the same time.”

”Yes, yes, yes, I have a relative who works at XX Brand, and yesterday, someone there also died!!”

News comes from all over the place, and people find that it’s not just in Jingnan City where people are dying; other places have deaths as well.

”An event this big, and the authorities still haven’t provided any information?”

”If this continues, won’t everyone die?”

”No, I have to go to the hospital for a check-up!!”

Everyone thinks it might be a contagious disease and wonders if it will affect them, so they rush to hospitals.

The hospitals know nothing, so naturally, they have no conclusions. Instead, some people have been diagnosed with illnesses.

The unidentified species management bureau is in disarray due to such a big commotion.

”Mr. Su. The death rate in all districts is still increasing, with an average of one person per hour...”

Su Tiyue reviews the latest submitted data, frowning.

”The manner of death for these people is the same; we specifically found a few who were willing to provide bodies for examination, confirming that they were all inhabited by unknown beings.”

Su Tiyue frowned deeply: ”What else have you discovered?”

”According to our investigation, people from Wenxian Road appeared before each of these deaths.”

Wenxian Road...

Su Tiyue was not surprised at all; only they could cause such a commotion without any scruples.

After pondering for a moment, Su Tiyue asked, ”What’s the situation outside now?”

”People are in a panic. Everyone is very worried. Should we contact the higher-ups to issue an announcement for reassurance?”

At this rate, something will certainly happen sooner or later.

Su Tiyue thought for a while: ”Go contact them first. I’ll be leaving for a bit.”

”Mr. Su, where are you going?”

”I have some matters to attend to.”

Su Tiyue drove to Wenxian Road. In broad daylight, Wenxian Road was desolate, with few people in sight.

Su Tiyue found Yellow Springs Road; the gate was open, and he peeked inside.

Chuzheng was sitting at a table, packing things.

Beside her, a robot was singing.

...

Birds on the trees couple up

Rivers and mountains smile with beauty

Casually picking a flower

I place it in my hair with my beloved

...

The robot clumsily gestured with its short arms and legs, creating an indescribably comical scene.

”Hey! Who’s sneaking around, quickly report your name!” The robot’s tone suddenly changed, pointing at the doorway.

Chuzheng looked towards the entrance.

Su Tiyue’s face suddenly came into view.

”What are you here for?”

Chuzheng still didn’t have a favorable opinion of Su Tiyue.

”Speak quickly!” The robot chimed in.

Su Tiyue stood outside the door. Without Chuzheng’s permission, he didn’t enter, politely saying: ”Miss Chuzheng, the recent commotion at Wenxian Road has caused panic outside. Is there a more suitable solution?”

Chuzheng immediately guessed he was there to ask about this matter.

”How Wenxian Road conducts itself is not your concern. Mr. Su, perhaps you should first take care of yourself.”

The robot joined in with a child’s voice: ”Exactly!”

Su Tiyue: ”Miss Chuzheng, that wasn’t my intention.”

”Then why are you here saying this now?”

The robot had its arms akimbo: ”Scram!”

The actions of the unidentified species management bureau were quite similar to Chuzheng’s.

Those unknown beings shouldn’t be using humans as hosts... so Su Tiyue wasn’t there to lecture Chuzheng on righteousness.

Su Tiyue: ”Previously, Miss Chuzheng didn’t seem to pay much attention to the matter, so why such drastic actions now?”

Unknown beings residing in human bodies is allowed to some extent at Wenxian Road.

So, unless it caused a big problem, they seldom interfered.

But now a big issue has suddenly erupted, so it’s understandable why Su Tiyue found it peculiar.

”That’s my business.”

”No comment!”

Chuzheng responded with a sentence, and the robot backed her up, cooperating seamlessly.

Getting anything out of Chuzheng was more difficult than climbing the sky. Leaving Wenxian Road, Su Tiyue sighed and rushed back to discuss the next steps in a meeting.

-

A certain apartment.

A man in a suit sat on a leather sofa, still wearing a mask, with only a pair of cold, deep black eyes visible.

Behind him stood a man with a bowed head; it was none other than Baldy from the funeral home, Bao Lei.

Bao Lei: ”My lord, we’ve suffered great losses; Wenxian Road made a move...”

Bao Lei didn’t dare continue because the cold aura emanating from the man on the sofa instinctively scared him.

Finally, the man sneered: ”You deploy so many people, and this is the result you show me?”

”...”

Bao Lei didn’t dare breathe.

Having already lost one funeral home, with this development, it was natural for this lord to be angry.

But it’s not their fault.

At the time of the funeral home, who expected to attract her!

If the funeral home hadn’t attracted that person from Wenxian Road, none of this would have happened.

The whole issue stemmed from the funeral home.

The masked man: ”Tell everyone else to hide well. Minimize the losses.”

”Yes... yes.” Bao Lei quickly agreed: ”I’ll arrange it right away.”

Bao Lei hurriedly left.

The room suddenly quieted down, so silent it seemed like there was no one in the room. The masked man sat there silently, his eyes dark and so eerie it was hard to describe.

-

Wenxian Road.

Jiang Sanzhan, with rainbow-colored hair, knocked on Chuzheng’s shop door, and after gaining permission, entered with Mei Ji.

Mei Ji pulled out some triangular metal fragments from her pink bunny-shaped waist.

Jiang Sanzhan explained: ”Miss Chuzheng, we discovered these on some unknown beings.”

Chuzheng picked up a piece to inspect; it was identical to the metal fragments she’d seen before.

”It’s hard to detect unknown beings possessing these metal fragments...” Mei Ji, waving bunny ears, added: ”They’re practically cheating.”
