Chapter 347: Chapter 227: Liaison Office

”Garbage...” Youyou hesitated for a moment but still nodded, ”It should be.”

She didn’t grasp the specifics of the operation, because she wasn’t in charge of this part.

However, she had heard about the general process, recyclable garbage had its own destinations.

Garbage that was difficult to handle would be dumped in the Hong District, and the most hazardous garbage would be thrown into the Desert District.

Qu Jianlei pondered and puzzledly asked, ”Garbage transported from alien planets, with such high costs... why not process it locally?”

Shaking her head, Youyou replied, ”First, the cost is not as high as you think; second, local processing is difficult to make harmless.”

Not that high? The first thing Qu Jianlei took note of was this — interstellar transportation of garbage with low costs?

On Blue Star, who dared speak like this wouldn’t be spat upon, for sure!

This means, in reality, it’s an extraordinarily materially abundant empire?

Thinking of this possibility, Qu Jianlei suddenly felt disheartened.

Being able to transport garbage across interstellar distances, while survivors in Gathering Areas lacked clothing and food, was a luxury just to drink a sip of clean water.

He no longer wanted to inquire about this empire; it was inefficient to stew in his own anger, for it couldn’t change anything anyway.

He lightly coughed, ”One last question, if Wei Wushuang gets promoted, he’ll go to the base, right?”

”Yes,” Youyou replied crisply, ”He can’t go to the Gorge, otherwise it might cause problems.”

”Indeed, they are precautionary...” Qu Jianlei nodded upon hearing this, knowing that these people did things systematically.

After waiting for a while and seeing he didn’t speak further, Youyou continued to ask, ”No more questions?”

”I don’t want to ask anymore,” Qu Jianlei replied dispiritedly.

After a pause, he asked an unrelated question, ”What’s going on today, willing to tell me so much?”

After pondering a moment, Youyou replied, ”Since your identity has also triggered alerts, I hope we can escape the base together.”

”Hold on,” Qu Jianlei rubbed his temples; the information was a lot, he needed to digest it.

A moment later, he solemnly asked, ”Have you discussed this with Xiao Moshan?”

”We discussed it when you stored the Limb Regeneration Potion,” Youyou replied earnestly, ”This is one of the action plans.”

Qu Jianlei chuckled silently; he could guess this should be one of the backup plans.

To execute this plan requires his cooperation, thus leaking vast amounts of information, hence he wasn’t told beforehand.

Qu Jianlei knew the concern on the other side, but he felt quite helpless about being informed only at the last minute.

”So, only if absolutely necessary would I be informed of these messages?”

With a serious tone, Youyou responded, ”I can understand your feelings, with your growth rate, you would soon know these messages.”

”This is merely ahead of schedule, not postponed... hoping others would inform you of these messages is even more difficult.”

Qu Jianlei paused for a moment then silently smiled, ”Then I should thank you two for the trust.”

Although he felt quite displeased, inherently, towards his comrades, he couldn’t be mean-spirited.

Their actions weren’t without reason, so he could only end with a bitter smile.

Youyou was slightly surprised by his generosity, knowing well this guy wasn’t easy to talk to.

She had already prepared herself mentally to waste a lot of words, hearing his reply, she smiled, ”Mo Huaitian knows you very well!”

The friendship among men is beyond your understanding! Qu Jianlei spoke solemnly, ”Tell me about your plan.”

Surprisingly, their plan was... no plan at all!

Every ten days, an interstellar spaceship would take off and land at the base, bringing needed supplies and sometimes taking personnel.

During emergencies at the base, a smaller interstellar spaceship would take off and land, without a specific schedule.

Xiao Moshan and the duo focused on the large spaceship, it was relatively easy to slip into and harder to detect.

As for how to get in, it was a matter of — acting accordingly.

Youyou also seemed to feel the plan was rather offbeat, explaining further.

”Mo Huaitian believes you have strong improvisational skills and wants me to listen to your arrangements.”

Qu Jianlei rolled his eyes helplessly, ”Why did he arrange for us to escape, and not himself and me?”

”He said I’m not suitable to handle Bentley and Flower Scorpion,” Youyou replied in exasperation.

”Also, my target upon returning is small, I can pass his messages back, simultaneously... I can prove my worth.”

Escaping during her posted duration carries hefty consequences — she initially came with the hope to redeem prior errors.

Having erred already, coupled with an escape, she shouldn’t expect to return without major merit.

She discovered some were ”raising bandits for self-interest,” but could the empire possibly be unaware of these shenanigans?

Thus this matter could count as a merit, but how substantial the merit actually is remains uncertain.

Importantly, she wanted to pass this news up, yet had no means to do so, furthermore she couldn’t leave this planet for the moment.

So Xiao Moshan suggested that she and Qu Jianlei leave here first and then pass on his message to the relevant people.

Xiao Moshan didn’t want to leave either, but if he secretly returned, there might be more people guarding against him.

Anyway, this is a backup plan, and he has already had full communication with Youyou.

Youyou was quite tempted by this plan, but she was also well aware that once she left, Xiao Moshan couldn’t repeat the trick.

Moreover, she had never figured out how to broach this subject to Qu Jianlei.

It wasn’t until now, when Qu Jianlei’s identity token also received a warning, that she saw the necessity of choosing this plan.

However, after hearing it, Qu Jianlei was also quite puzzled by the arrangement Xiao Moshan had made.

There is of course a camaraderie born of life-and-death experiences among comrades, but Xiao Moshan essentially gave up his own chance to leave to help Youyou.

He carefully questioned for a long time and finally confirmed that the logic could indeed be self-consistent before accepting this statement.

But he still had other suggestions, ”How about we wait for Xiao Moshan and the three of us leave together?”

Youyou glanced at him, expressing helplessly, ”Limb regeneration takes a really long time.”

”Bentley and Flower Scorpion can’t fully recover without a year.”

The key is... Wei Wushuang’s people also need treatment! Qu Jianlei realized too.

Then, let’s not say anything more, let’s just enter the base.

Qu Jianlei is not a person who hesitates. Once he made a decision, he started to make final preparations.

First, he had to go through all the secret camps in the gorge and pick some valuable items to put into the storage ring.

Since they were leaving this planet, who didn’t understand the principle of storing valuables for the journey?

Of course, he wouldn’t take everything, the cultivation of those three also required resources, he just took the bulk.

In Central City and the Celestial District, their team had accumulated a lot of resources as well, he believed those three wouldn’t keep things to themselves.

Qu Jianlei meticulously packed quite a lot of good stuff, in the end only occupying one-third of the storage ring’s space.

Youyou suggested, ”If there’s still room, pack a bit more food and energy blocks...”

”After all, during interstellar travel, anything might happen, it’s not a bad idea to be more prepared.”

”This makes me feel creepy,” Qu Jianlei couldn’t help but roll his eyes, ”Where can I get a storage talisman in the gorge? I’ll go grab one.”

”You can’t grab one, those are overseen by the Supreme,” Youyou replied casually, but then she suddenly exclaimed.

”Oh, wait, no, I think I heard someone mention... seems like there’s a storage talisman at the base’s liaison office in the gorge.”

The base was over a hundred kilometers away from the gorge, logically speaking, there was no need to set up a liaison office.

However, this liaison office objectively existed, regardless of trust or distrust, that’s just the procedure.

There were three people in the liaison office, one A-level, one B-level, and a Modified Warrior.

”It’s really easy to grab,” Youyou eagerly persuaded, ”Their strength is limited, even people from the gorge are reluctant to approach them.”

The liaison office was located on Pioneer Road, in the most gold-valued area of the gorge, only such a location could showcase the base’s prestige.

There were quite a few high-end shops on Pioneer Road, and many standalone luxury mansions, there’s no shortage of powerful Ultimate Warriors.

Someone once joked that if you stood there and shouted, ”Catch that B-level warrior who stole my wife!”

At least in an instant, dozens of people would start running!

The intention of this joke wasn’t to say how many high-level warriors were there, mainly it was to say how decadent life was in that area.

Where the rich thrive, decadence naturally follows.

But fundamentally, the high-tier warriors there, were truly numerous—the entire Central City barely had dozens of B-levels.

With so many B-level warriors, naturally, there wouldn’t be too few A-levels, the liaison office set up here, no one would dare to covet it.

But the problem was, the base was so towering above, that surrounding gorge warriors were unwilling to approach that unremarkable courtyard.

Most people would even rather take a slight detour than trigger any potential misunderstandings.

So this created a very strange phenomenon, Pioneer Road was full of experts, yet there was a vacuum area.

The people at the liaison office didn’t find this bad at all: if you don’t come, we get some peace and quiet.

Broadly speaking, it was a bit like ”a quiet place amidst the bustle”—after all, no one believed someone would dare to attack.

Youyou had previously said a couple of words about this issue while at the base.

But others didn’t take it seriously, so she didn’t ponder over it—since it wasn’t related to her business, nagging continually was easy to annoy people.

But thinking about it now, it was simply the best target, and she made a serious suggestion.

”As long as we act quickly, the gorge’s Supreme might not necessarily intervene... even the base’s liaison office, the Supreme would have to weigh carefully.”

”I understand,” Qu Jianlei nodded, in Blue Star’s words—that would mean even if a dog is sent down here from above, it’d be more powerful than those from below.

”Yes, Minister” and ”Yes, Prime Minister” already portrayed this vividly.
