Chapter 88: Made it big

"Li Yi, come in, don't stare. We were just discussing how to reward you in the meeting. You just happened to come and see if you are satisfied with the rewards the Investigation Bureau is giving you."

Zhang Lei smiled at this moment and waved his hand to signal Li Yi to come over.

Hearing about the reward, Li Yi's eyes lit up. He immediately walked into the conference room and first greeted everyone in the conference room: "Hello everyone."

Then he came to Zhang Lei's side and asked: "Captain, what is the Investigation Bureau planning to reward me with this time?"

Zhang Lei smiled and said: "According to statistics, you killed fifteen beasts in this mission, so for this point, the Investigation Bureau is prepared to reward you with 40 million in cash. Of course, this money is far less valuable than those beasts, but Li Yi, you have to be clear that you are acting as an external combat personnel, so you can only obtain 30% of the value of the beasts, and the rest must be turned over in part and distributed to other teammates in part."

"I can understand this. Being able to get such a large sum of money has already surprised me. Thank you for your care, Captain." Li Yi naturally understood, after all, most of those beasts were killed by him with a sniper rifle, and the operation also benefited from the Investigation Bureau.

Plus, many things were handled by the Investigation Bureau, so Li Yi getting 30% was considered not bad, and he had no dissatisfaction.

Zhang Lei nodded: "This is just the first reward. The second reward is about that defective Mystic Object. Before you came here, Wang Jian should have told you, right? Because this defective Mystic Object was recovered by our Tianchang City Investigation Bureau, after discussion by the headquarters, this defective Mystic Object will be left in the training base, and a meditation room will be built with this defective Mystic Object as the center."

"Staff members have already made reasonable and strict calculations, and at most 22 meditation cultivation rooms can be built. And you, as the greatest contributor to the recovery of this Mystic Object, the Investigation Bureau has decided to give you two permanent cultivation quotas. As long as this Mystic Object is still in Tianchang City, you have the qualifications to borrow this defective Mystic Object for cultivation."

"Really? That's great." Li Yi felt pleasantly surprised all of a sudden.

He didn't expect that he would have a share after the bone mural was recovered.

And he had two quotas; how precious this was. Even if he couldn't use them in the future, he could give them to others, or at worst, rent them out. He believed there must be no shortage of practitioners in Tianchang City who were interested in the Mystic Object.

Compared to 40 million, these two Mystic Object meditation room quotas were the most precious.

"Li Yi, don't just be surprised, you have a third reward." Beside him, Investigator Zhang Zhixiong smiled and pointed to the screen in the conference room: "See the three buildings on it? Choose one and take it as your reward."

"Taking a building as my reward, is it real or fake?" Li Yi felt somewhat dreamy at this moment, looking at everyone in disbelief.

A high-level official smiled and said: "You saved a total of twenty investigators including our Captain this time. This merit is greater than recovering a Mystic Object to us. We really can't think of anything else to reward you with. I heard that you still live in a residential building in the old city district, so we discussed it and decided to reward you with a building so that you have a safer place to live. How about it? Are you dissatisfied with this reward?"

"No, no, that's not the case. I am very satisfied with this reward, even somewhat flattered." Li Yi waved his hand quickly, his heart somewhat excited.

He didn't expect the Investigation Bureau's reward to be so heavy; he thought it would be at most a bonus before.

"Since you like it, then pick a building." Zhang Lei smiled: "It's just a pity that our Investigation Bureau doesn't have any resources in the stability district. Otherwise, it would be better to give you a building in the stability district."

"Captain is too polite. I am already very satisfied now, so I will really not be polite and pick a building?" Li Yi's eyes lit up at this moment, quickly browsing the basic information of the three buildings.

The three buildings each had their own advantages and disadvantages.

Heping Financial Building had the highest basic value, but its location was average, and it had been idle for many years. If he really wanted to use it, he would need to spend a large sum of money on decoration and preparation. In addition, after the Sky Tilt incident, high-rise buildings had high risks and were prone to attacks by extraordinary creatures.

Liunian Clubhouse had a medium location, but its basic facilities were perfect, and the interior decoration was luxurious, suitable for moving in, but the disadvantage was that it could only be used for living and had no other value.

The last one, Xiangpiao Restaurant, had the best location, but the building was a bit old. However, after moving in, he could take over a restaurant, open a business, and have a stable income in the future.

Li Yi, who had been poor for a lifetime and hadn't been rich for a few days, was really caught in a dilemma.

Three choose one, how difficult.

Can't he have them all?

Li Yi thought so in his heart.

But this was just thinking; having them all was certainly impossible, so he could only make a choice from them.

"Since it's difficult to choose, then I can only use the elimination method." Li Yi immediately thought about it, and he excluded Liunian Clubhouse first in his heart.

The clubhouse was good, comfortable to live in, and if he added a few beauties, it would really be a kind of enjoyment.

But Li Yi was a good young man who was born evil and deeply demonic; how could he be greedy for enjoyment? So it must be ruthlessly excluded.

"Xiangpiao Restaurant is not bad, the location is good, and he can do business. It's just that since I plan to change my way of living, it's impossible to live an honest life anymore. The era has changed now, honest people have no way out. I don't want to spend time being a boss. This path of cultivation evolution only has fighting and killing, without the determination to be smashed to pieces, how can one see the scenery of looking down at all the mountains?"

Li Yi made a decision at this moment, and he said immediately: "Captain, I want Heping Financial Building."

This choice was not just a choice of a place to live, but more like a choice of life.

"Heping Financial Building? Alright, no problem." Zhang Lei nodded to indicate no problem, but he was still somewhat surprised by Li Yi's choice.

That building was not decorated inside. Except for the bright appearance and relatively high floors, it had no great value and was not practical for Li Yi.

However, he didn't ask much. Anyway, Li Yi had his own right to choose. No matter which building he wanted, the Investigation Bureau would agree.

Li Yi felt somewhat dreamy at this moment.

Just by saying a word in this small conference room, could he own so many things? 40 million in cash, two Mystic Object meditation room quotas, a building... how many years would an ordinary person need to struggle for these things?

And he got them all after joining the Investigation Bureau and completing only one mission.

Sure enough, Li Yi was suitable for this way of living.

Because only by living in this way did he feel that he hadn't come to this world in vain.

He didn't want to go back to that cramped, dim, sunless old city district. Even if this choice might face many dangers in the future, Li Yi didn't regret it. He deeply understood that danger and opportunity coexist. Without fighting again and again, there wouldn't be today's harvest.

After calming his mood, Li Yi's heart was full of determination, and at the same time, an inexplicable momentum gradually emerged from his body.

That was a kind of heroic spirit that had gotten rid of the mentality of a small citizen and dared to fight with this cruel world.

"Has the mentality changed?" As a master of Spirit Perception, Zhang Lei sensed this subtle change in Li Yi.

The corners of his mouth smiled.

That's right.

If Li Yi were the kind of person who thought about hiding and cultivating slowly after getting some benefits, he, Zhang Lei, would look down on him instead.

The world is changing too fast.

The second Sky Tilt incident is even coming soon.

If you want to rise in adversity, you cannot be timid.

"So Li Yi chose that Heping Financial Building not for money. The building is just a symbol deep in his heart. He also wants to stand in the clouds like that building, looking down at the earth, and be a man of the hour." Zhang Lei probably understood something in his heart.

After making the choice, Li Yi didn't continue to stay in the conference room. Although he had made a great contribution this time, he was only an external combat personnel, and the internal affairs of the Investigation Bureau had nothing to do with him.

So after thanking everyone in the Investigation Bureau, Li Yi left with the excuse of resting.

"You have a good rest these few days, you won't be on a mission for the time being." Zhang Lei said, intentionally giving Li Yi a few days off.

Li Yi also took this opportunity to go to the training ground to complete the remaining training, and then go home to arrange things at home.

As soon as he left the conference room.

Wang Jian, Chen Hao, and Zheng Gong, who had been waiting outside, surrounded him.

"Li Yi, how is it? What kind of reward did the Investigation Bureau give you?" The three were very curious and wanted to know urgently.

Li Yi smiled and said: "The Investigation Bureau gave me a cash reward of 40 million, a building, and two permanent quotas for Mystic Object cultivation rooms."

He had no need to hide it, after all, the Investigation Bureau would definitely take this matter out for publicity.

"Damn, so much? Good fellow, you have made it big." Wang Jian's eyes widened, and he became envious all of a sudden.

However, although he was envious, he also understood that Li Yi deserved this.

After all, he had really saved twenty investigators including Zhang Lei this time. If he wasn't heavily rewarded, it wouldn't make sense.

"Just good luck." Li Yi responded with a humble smile.

"What good luck, you got this by your own strength. Maybe I will have to follow you in the future." Wang Jian shook his head, and what He Xiong said before was really right.

He would have to rely on Li Yi in the future.

It's just that he didn't expect this day to come so quickly. ===== CHAPTER 89 =====
