Chapter 655

Ning Chen's words were no different than stabbing a knife into his wound; Li Mu, hearing that familiar voice, made a mental note to settle the score with Ning Chen.

Li Mu believed he had the ability to find out Ning Chen's background once he returned; as for picking a fight, that was not a difficult task either.

But Li Mu did not yet know that his shares in the barbecue shop had also been completely swallowed by Ning Chen.

Seeing Li Mu's haughty expression, Ning Chen knew that Li Mu was actually unaware that his shares had already been transferred.

Ning Chen even pondered whether to tell him the news now to vent his anger, or wait until Li Mu left the island and was in the recovery phase to receive this news.

In the end, Ning Chen chose to tell him the news right now.

After all, the ten or so minutes he spent discussing with the shop manager could hardly be treated as non-existent.

Thinking of this, Ning Chen placed his hand on the side of the stretcher, firmly preventing the other four people from lifting it.

Although Li Mu was screaming in pain, he still felt a pressure accompanying him, and his breathing became momentarily difficult.

Li Mu's expression showed some impatience; he angrily said, "What do you mean! I am an injured person now! You are supposed to compensate my medical expenses. Dare you break my leg bone? If you don't pay me eighty or one hundred thousand, this matter will absolutely not be settled!"

Ultimately, it was all because of money.

Ning Chen sneered, looking at Li Mu's expression with deep meaning: "Weren't you very arrogant before? Didn't you order people around just because you were a shareholder?"

When Ning Chen said this, his eyes showed no great change, but his words made Li Mu's heart skip a beat.

Li Mu's first reaction was that it was impossible.

How could anyone spend so much money on shares just because of a sentence or two? Li Mu knew he had thoroughly offended Ning Chen, and vice versa, Ning Chen had done the same to him.

Moreover, Ning Chen had nothing rich about his entire person; his clothes were also very ordinary, so he must be bluffing him.

Thinking of this, Li Mu felt that everything made sense.

Li Mu gasped for air while saying, "If you can't afford to pay, don't pretend! Can you afford the shares? Someone like you?"

Ning Chen was not angry; he looked down on him and said, "Go ask the manager. As for the medical fees, I happen to have a few lawyers here. You want to extort me? I'd like to see how much you can extort."

Upon hearing these words, Li Mu's expression on his face completely stiffened.

Although Li Mu still did not quite believe it, he could not help but waver; he could see that a person with Ning Chen's personality would not say such things unless he was one hundred percent sure.

But how could it be possible...

Ning Chen looked down at him, revealing a contemptuous smile; he no longer held the stretcher but let these people lift Li Mu out.

Li Mu remained very restless on the stretcher; he waved his arms vigorously and cursed loudly in his mouth, looking as if he hated Ning Chen to the core.

Hearing these words, Ning Chen did not even furrow his eyebrows.

After all, these words held no deterrent power for him; at most, they were just venting.

At this moment, the viewers in the live broadcast room all said they felt satisfied; after all, being able to slap the face of this self-important person gave everyone a feeling of pleasure.

After finishing lunch, Ning Chen went to find a place to stay. He had agreed with the owner of the barbecue shop that the contract would be drafted within two days, after all, he would not stay here for a long time.

In fact, there were not few places available for accommodation on this small island; there were hotels and homestays, but the number of homestays was few and far between, after all, it was a scenic spot.

Relatively speaking, a better living environment would also come with a higher price. Ning Chen did not care about the price; he just wanted to stay in a good place, at least so he would not feel wronged for this one day.

So Ning Chen chose to stay in a hotel.

The hotels at scenic spots were indeed very expensive; although Ning Chen would not feel heartache, judging by his experience of living for so long, if he did not have this ability and means now, he would probably still feel heartache staying in such a hotel.

The viewers in the live broadcast room all said they had opened their eyes; it must be said that Ning Chen, a wealthy and powerful check-in streamer, was a clear stream in the live streaming world.

First, Ning Chen's live streaming style was very simple; he basically did not talk to the audience much, but Ning Chen encountered many interesting people and things; during the check-in process, it was no different than giving the audience a rich space for imagination.

Second, Ning Chen had enough money; the things he could show the audience were even more, which was something those ordinary check-in streamers did not possess.

Third, Ning Chen's live broadcast room had a lot of popularity; whenever one entered, there was no lack of interesting comments from interesting people; one could even chat and gossip inside, making it truly the best choice for eating while watching.

Although most of Ning Chen's income did not come from live streaming, the material resources live streaming could provide him were not few.

Ning Chen got the room key, looked at the number on the room key, and went to the top floor.

This was a presidential suite; looking down from the very top, one could see the beautiful scenery of the seaside island, taking the island and the sea into one's sight, which was very suitable for a vacation.

517. Assignment of the New Mission

After simply taking a shower, Ning Chen had to ensure his sleep time was sufficient today; the whole of tomorrow would be needed to circle around the seaside island to complete the check-in tasks.

At this time, the live broadcast was naturally interrupted; after all, this was Ning Chen's private life.

When the live broadcast was forcibly interrupted, those viewers, even if unwilling, could only express their disappointment through bullet comments and comments.

"It was truly brief; if only the streamer could keep broadcasting, I haven't seen enough yet."

"I don't know if the streamer will broadcast again tomorrow; today the time was all spent on teaching someone a lesson, I haven't even seen the scenery of this place, which is truly a pity."

"The streamer has checked in at so many places, and the seaside island is the closest to me... If possible, I will take people there to play when the time comes, after all, it is at least a check-in spot with quite high popularity."

"Why do so many people just want to see the scenery on the seaside island? Am I the only one who wants the streamer to slap that man's face? Dare to provoke him like that; the streamer must teach him a lesson."

"I don't understand, so I ask: is there someone who didn't watch the live broadcast seriously? Didn't the streamer already agree with the owner of the barbecue shop to buy the shares in the shop? Why is no one discussing this? Am I the only one surprised that the streamer is actually so rich?"

"You are not alone, but we have witnessed it long ago; how could someone who owns a private helicopter be an ordinary person? The streamer is very rich."

At this moment, Ning Chen lay on his back on the bed, glanced at the bullet comments and comments in the live broadcast room, and soon smiled happily.

For these viewers, Ning Chen had no other opinion; he only regarded them as strangers met by chance; Ning Chen did not interact or contact the audience much, and would only look at the comments a couple of times when he was in a good mood.

And looking at them like this allowed Ning Chen to see some interesting comments.

Ning Chen lowered his head, eyes looking at the ceiling, and conversed with the viewers: "Do you think that having a little money means one is not an ordinary person?"

Ning Chen rarely interacted with the audience, so when Ning Chen threw out this question, soon someone in the live broadcast room began to answer.

"Hard to say, but I, who have no money, am definitely an ordinary person."

"... Would someone like the streamer be an ordinary person? Don't kill us with flattery; anyway, I have never met such an ordinary person."

"Mm, having money certainly means one is not; look at that person's attitude before, wasn't he also having a little money? Yet he ordered people around like that; if he were an ordinary person, how would he dare to say such things."

"Having money... how can one be considered an ordinary person?"

Seeing the one-sided trend of the comments, Ning Chen helplessly sighed.

He thought for a moment and said, "Actually, I used to think much the same as you, but this mindset makes people feel that living is very tiring; only after realizing one is an ordinary person can the mindset be leveled; why torture oneself?"

After saying this, Ning Chen felt a bit bored; chatting with the audience during spare time was hardly wrong.

But he suddenly heard the system's prompt sound.

The prompt sounded in his brain; no one except Ning Chen could hear it. Ning Chen paused, realized the system must have something to say to him, so he smiled at the live-stream viewers and said.

"Alright, let's stop chatting. We've talked long enough today; everyone should get to sleep early."

After saying this, Ning Chen manually cut the connection on his end, ignoring the viewers' wails in the live room, immediately sat up from the bed, sat by the headboard, eyes clear and bright.

The system said: "You are expected to complete the check-in task tomorrow night. After completing the task, you will intermittently obtain a special ability, but there is a prerequisite."

Ning Chen focused his attention, propped both hands behind his head, and asked: "What prerequisite?"

"You must find a person who plays a crucial role in our subsequent check-in tasks."

The system's cold electronic voice rang out. Hearing it say this, Ning Chen was somewhat stunned.

If speaking strictly, the system is actually a completely independent entity; it is something originally detached from outside this world, so in theory it should have no connection with anything inside this world.

Unless the person the system seeks has a connection with the ultimate goal and the completion of the tasks.

Ning Chen wisely chose not to agree lightly; he continued asking: "Do I only need to find this person? Do I not need to do anything else?"

The system said: "Yes, but this person's whereabouts have always been bizarre; otherwise I would not have assigned this task to you. After finding him, I will contact him; rest assured."

Ning Chen nodded.

Although he was more skilled at killing, finding people, though time-consuming, would not soil his hands; compared to killing, it was actually more suitable.

Especially at this moment, Ning Chen's check-in task was already half completed; assigning another task midway might even accelerate the progress of finding Si Shiya.

The system, as if performing routine duties, told Ning Chen this news, then said nothing more and returned to its previous lurking state.

But Ning Chen did not intend to let the system off so easily; after all, it was a newly issued independent task; without asking clearly, Ning Chen felt uneasy in his heart.

So Ning Chen asked again: "Will you give me task clues? What nationality is the target person? During the process of completing the person-finding task, do I need to separately complete check-in tasks?"

Ning Chen asked three questions in a row; these three questions were urgently needed to be resolved at present.

Hearing this, the system, without a word, first transmitted a file to him.

Ning Chen took the file, which was not particularly thick, flipped through a few pages, and found it contained some characteristics of the target person.

The target person shared Ning Chen's nationality, but he was currently not within the homeland; instead, he had run to a country known worldwide for its danger level.

That country was famous for trafficking people and producing certain hallucinogenic drugs; the criminal acts and dealings inside were terrifying.

Ning Chen had not been unaware of matters concerning that country, but he had not investigated too deeply; after all, at that time he had no interest in such matters.

Ning Chen suddenly realized that this mission might be extremely dangerous.

Bringing back a person with no strength to tie a chicken from such a dangerous place; just thinking about it felt difficult. Moreover, the prompt the system gave him was nearly vague; if Ning Chen did not understand the system, he would most likely think this task was a prank.

"Feel it is too difficult?" the system asked aloud.
