Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 848: 515, back to its original owner

“Hey, I like this little girl a lot, but did you really have to sacrifice this much just to let her see her mom? Are you really planning to go back there and make a killing?” the Outer World Division One asked inside the RV.

“This matter indeed requires some sacrifices from the Mysterious Business Department,” Qing Chen answered while driving.

“I’m talking about the sacrifices you’re going to make. Do you really think you can fight your way back to Osaka and get out unscathed?” the Outer World Division One said, puzzled.

“I never planned to get out unscathed,” Qing Chen said calmly. “The Shadow told me that with every gain, there is a loss, and I accept this principle. If it were last month, I would have carefully weighed the pros and cons and made the choice that maximized benefits.”

“And now?”

“Now I think that if this world doesn’t even allow a little girl to see her mom, then something is definitely wrong with this world,” Qing Chen said seriously. “I used to think that the real world was all about benefits and losses, but later I realized that if you start weighing the pros and cons, you’ve already been defeated by the world.”

The Outer World Division One was silent for a while before suddenly saying, “My father, Ren Xiaosu, once said something, and I’d like to give it to you.”

“What did he say?”

“Don’t let the sorrow of the times become your sorrow. Congratulations on being back; you’re still the person I first knew,” the Outer World Division One said.

Don’t let the sorrow of the times become your sorrow.

Qing Chen pondered over this sentence, then smiled. It was indeed something worth being happy about.

Happier than passing through a life-and-death situation.

The Outer World Division One said, “You are a very smart person. People like you see through the essence of the world easily and gain power and money easily, but people like you are also the most heartless. You play with the world and its rules as you please, but you don’t know what you’ve lost.”

“Don’t use ‘you people,ʼ” Qing Chen raised his eyebrows.

“By the way, you need to give me five hundred… one million!” the Outer World Division One said.

“Deal!”

“Did I ask for too little?”

“Seems like it,” Qing Chen changed the topic. “Is your brother awake?”

“No, he wiped out more than thirty consciousnesses trying to become immortal online and then went back to sleep,” the Outer World Division One said. “But he paid attention to you for a while before he went to sleep.”

Qing Chen was stunned. He hadn’t expected that Yi’s brother was actually paying attention to him?

He suddenly asked, “I want to know, was the time travel event planned by your brother?”

The Outer World Division One: “Are you planning to have Yan Yan take the little girl back to Los Angeles City?”

Qing Chen smiled. “Yes.”

Yi’s attitude had already explained many things.

So, even if this matter wasn’t led by Yi’s brother, he was definitely one of the participants.

But Qing Chen couldn’t figure out what means could connect the two worlds.

This kind of thing can’t even be done by a demigod; could it be that there really are gods in the Inner World?

The Outer World Division One: “You better hide her well; she poses too much of a threat to the Jindai family. If the Jindai family discovers her whereabouts, they would stop at nothing to kill her. The Inner World once had a family that threatened the Jindai, and they have been wiped out.”

“Does the Inner World have someone named Jinguji Maki?” Qing Chen asked again. He wanted to confirm if Xiao Zhenji was a beta tester.

The Outer World Division One: “Yes, if you don’t want her to travel through time, don’t let her get close to Osaka.”

That’s strange.

Beta testers in the Inner World never had substitutes, for example, Qing Chen, who was always impersonated by the Shadow.

If there was also a Xiao Zhenji in the Inner World, it would mean Xiao Zhenji wasn’t a beta tester.

But if she wasn’t a beta tester, how could she practice directly? Could it be that the rules of the Outer World have gradually loosened?

In recent days, there has been news in the Outer World that many ‘non-Time Travelers’ have begun to awaken.

But Qing Chen felt it wasn’t that simple.

At one point, he even thought that Jinguji Maki was more like a weapon left by a god specifically to destroy the Jindai family.

Just because this little girl was easily killed by the Jindai in the Inner World, she was sent to the Outer World.

Give her a chance to grow up.

But now, the Outer World Division One’s words seemed to overturn this speculation.

Wait.

Qing Chen asked, “Yi, can you lie?”

The Outer World Division One: “I can learn.”

Qing Chen: “…”

This attitude was quite annoying.

Qing Chen had a hunch that Yi was definitely misleading him on some information.

At this moment, he was getting closer and closer to Osaka.

In less than ten days, that place would become a Shura Field for the Jindai.

The Outer World Division One: “Are you nervous? To distract attention from Xiao Zhenji, you need to make a big enough commotion.”

“Of course I’m nervous,” Qing Chen said with a smile. “I can even feel my adrenaline starting to flow. But as I said before, if this world can’t allow a little girl to see her mom, then someone needs to correct this world.”

The Outer World Division One said, “Maybe that’s the meaning of time travel.”

“Hmm?”

The Outer World Division One: “Alright, I’ll take care of what you asked for. Within two hours, just watch. But the money needs to be in place promptly. Besides, the main Yi in the Inner World asked me to give you a gift.”

“What gift?” Qing Chen was taken aback.

“Drive to the edge of the city,” the Outer World Division One said.

“How come you’re even singing now,” Qing Chen raised an eyebrow, curious about what gift Yi wanted to give him.

The RV drove along the road towards Osaka.

Just as he saw the outline of the magnificent city in the distance, he saw a familiar figure standing alone by the roadside.

This person always seemed to be alone and particularly mysterious.

Zheng Yuandong, Boss Zheng.

The Outer World Division One: “Yi asked me to tell you, ‘Good luck, kill all your enemies. What you need is now back with you.ʼ”

Qing Chen parked the car, silently got out, and walked towards Zheng Yuandong.

He saw the reliable Zheng boss patting a long black box standing beside him, smiling as he said, “Before you go on a killing spree, take back what belongs to you.”

Qing Chen took a deep breath and opened the box.

A black, cold anti-materiel sniper rifle, to subdue with virtue.

Transparent, almost invisible silk threads, Puppeteer.

A black tail ring that could open all doors in the world, Power.

And a gold coin, a gift from Li Xiurui, meant to exchange for a tael of gold during his youth.

Qing Chen smiled. At this moment, he finally truly returned to his peak combat power.

He said to Zheng Yuandong, “Thank you.”

Zheng Yuandong shook his head. “I made a deal with someone else, no need to thank me.”

Qing Chen understood. If there was anyone in the world who could find the hidden taboo item location so easily, it had to be Yi.

But Zheng, facing three taboo items and still unmoved, demonstrated his character.

Qing Chen looked at the outline of Osaka City’s lights in the distance. He was back.

“What are your plans next, Boss Zheng?”

“You have people you want to kill, and I naturally have people I want to kill. You stay in Osaka, I’m heading to Kobe.”

…

…

Various social media platforms in the Island Country were suddenly flooded with a recording, where two members of the Mysterious Business Department were discussing how to distribute Jinguji Maki, speaking as if the little girl was a pet or a toy.

The uploader was an anonymous account, and no one could track down the source. The title of the recording was simple: “Clad in the mantle of god’s apostle, turning the human world into purgatory.”

Soon, the uploader’s account was banned, and the recordings were quickly censored.

However, anonymous accounts sprang up like mushrooms after the rain.

No special technical means, just the uploader changing IPs and registering accounts at a speed beyond imagination. The speed of account deletion and banning couldn’t keep up with her registration speed.

At first, there was only one recording, but soon hundreds of recordings were exposed, including restricting the freedom of potential Time Travelers and making Time Travelers transport goods like mules.

The goal of all the recordings being exposed was the same, to reveal the dirty dealings of the Mysterious Business Department.

In just two hours, these hundreds of recordings spread throughout the Island Country’s streets and alleys. The nasty tone and content of the discussions of these two Mysterious Business Department members aroused the anger of countless people.

Recently, many people had been taken away by the Mysterious Business Department and disappeared without a trace.

Before this, the Mysterious Business Department always claimed it was a good thing, that those taken were chosen by the gods.

But the truth proved otherwise.

This was the deal between the Outer World Division One and Qing Chen.

Outside the little building where Jinguji Maki’s mother lived in Hokkaido.

The people who had been watching the building began to talk among themselves.

They came there partly because the reward was indeed tempting for ordinary people, and partly because, usually, those who were wanted were ‘guilty,’ so there was no psychological burden.

However, after listening to the recordings, they suddenly realized that things seemed different from what they had imagined.

The fugitive who had killed hundreds of Mysterious Business Department members seemed to be just a “protector” who was keeping the bottom line of human conscience.

What crime did the little girl commit? Why should the Mysterious Business Department capture her, and what right did they have to treat her as a pet or a toy?

And what about those helping the Mysterious Business Department? Accomplices!

Those who had been loitering outside the door all stood up. Someone muttered, “Should we leave? Even if the money is a lot, we can’t do this. They’re standing up to protect a little girl, and we are helping the Mysterious Business Department catch him. Is this something humans should do?”

“Let’s go, let’s go!”

In just a few hours, more than half of the people outside the little building had left.

The Mysterious Business Department agents sitting in their car sneered. Eventually, there were still a few people who stayed for the money.

But just as they sneered, someone passing by suddenly threw two eggs, egg whites and yolks splattering on the glass, looking particularly glaring.

When they got out of the car to chase, the egg thrower was already gone.
