Chapter 333: Chu Qi
The private jet landed steadily within the private estate belonging to Li Qingzi; a runway of extreme length had been specially reserved here, even exceeding the length of public airports in some places by double, all to ensure safety.
Bai Cangshu swirled his red wine glass, looking through the window at this nation controlled by chaebols, his gaze appearing scarlet and sinister, obscured by the red wine glass.
"Tsk, it really is not a large country."
There was a full service team on the plane; the interpreter who had been following Li Qingzi to Myanmar North heard Bai Cangshu's words and her expression turned sour, but seeing that Miss Li had no reaction and instead remained seated by his side the whole time, she did not dare to speak.
Li Qingzi stepped off the plane; returning to a familiar place allowed her spirit to relax slightly, but thinking of how Bai Cangshu was also here, her eyelids drooped—many things had already inevitably come to pass.
She had no choice; she could only take it one step at a time.
A middle-aged man wearing an exquisite black suit waited in the estate; he was a director of the March Conglomerate and could be considered a force under Li Qingzi, specifically managing various internal affairs of the group for her.
Seeing Li Qingzi appear, he immediately went up to greet her, reporting the changes within the group concisely and quickly.
The situation regarding Ability Users could no longer be concealed, and the March Conglomerate had begun to formulate countermeasures in this regard; at the personal direction of the conglomerate's head, Lixianhou, the March Conglomerate was to enter the field of high-precision biological research, and she had chosen Li Qingzi's father to be personally responsible for the establishment of this department.
Li Qingzi was expressionless, her aura exceptional; as personnel reported their work one after another, she briefly broke down and processed it, reallocating resources according to priority.
Being able to obtain a large amount of equity in the group's most important smart device sector at the age of twenty-four was not entirely due to Lixianhou's favoritism and the cruel abilities exclusive to a Reincarnator.
Or rather, the reason Lixianhou favored this eldest granddaughter so much was precisely because she possessed that kind of ability!
Bai Cangshu walked behind, listening to those people chattering away in their own language; he had not gone to the space to stabilize his language proficiency and could not understand them for the time being.
But just by relying on these people's body language, heart contractions, and facial expressions, he could discern a great deal of information.
For example, this first man who came over to report looked at him from time to time without leaving a trace, and his heart rate and breathing rhythm had changed.
The other party was very concerned about him.
Or rather, this was likely the reason the other party followed Li Qingzi so devotedly.
Tsk~
He looked away, uninterested; this kind of self-righteous love always made him feel bored.
The more a guy like this followed a woman in a rigid, rule-following manner, the more he was often unable to reach the woman's heart at all.
"Hey, woman, I'm tired; arrange a room for me."
He spoke to Li Qingzi, interrupting the conversation between the few of them.
Li Qingzi was expressionless, but she felt relieved in her heart; she felt glad that Bai Cangshu had not called her "little slave girl" or something even uglier like "slave."
"You all take this gentleman to the estate to rest, and go to Seoul to invite a Chinese cuisine chef to come and cook."
She thought for a moment, then added:
"Arrange the room with the best environment for Mr. Bai!"
Her old butler immediately nodded and turned to make arrangements; the few of them led Bai Cangshu away, and Bai Cangshu did not do anything more terrifying.
He appeared quite settled.
Li Qingzi faintly felt that the other party was brewing something, perhaps the new mission that was about to begin, or perhaps he was suppressing his murderous intent toward Xu Zhiyu.
But regardless, she had at least gained a breathing spell.
Her top priority now was to see her grandfather and take control of that so-called high-precision biotechnology department herself.
……
After resting for a day, the next day Bai Cangshu likewise received a prompt from the space; he would be deployed in one day's time.
Furthermore, after Li Qingzi returned to the space, she used her connections to find out that many Gatherings and teams were massively sweeping up supplies in the Shanty Town, as well as various healing abilities and Special Items like the Scapegoat Scarecrow.
All sorts of signs indicated that many Reincarnators believed the space was about to initiate a new round of large-scale, high-risk deployments.
So-called large-scale, high-risk deployments were ultra-large deployments that would appear once or several times every few mission cycles in the space.
They would deploy dozens or even hundreds of Reincarnators simultaneously into a concentrated, special world.
Those worlds were extremely difficult, and the mortality rate far exceeded that of ordinary missions.
But at the same time, the output of such missions was also quite high; almost every time, among the Reincarnators who came out alive, there were those who rose rapidly, using the harvest from that world to quickly climb the Ladder.
It was just like when a storm is about to arrive; the dark clouds had already gathered in the sky, and the air had become humid.
Reincarnators were like ants, having already sensed those signs and were constantly preparing for their own potential dangers.
Bai Cangshu remained calm and composed, lying by the estate's swimming pool, sunbathing and eating the expensive fruits of this country.
The Goddess's hint, the information from the inner demon, and the commission given by Luo Xi—all information seemed to converge, hinting at what would happen in his next mission.
This situation was quite bizarre, as if there were a fixed destiny in the dark; before the event arrived, many people already had reactions.
Bai Cangshu looked at the white clouds overhead, bored; he felt as if he were the center of the storm, with that bizarre 【Strong Luck】 and this arrangement in the dark.
All of it reflected his special and unusual nature.
Bai Cangshu thought again of the beginning of everything, his friend who had suddenly died.
The other party had handed that thing to him when he was dying, and then died in the downtown area.
Everything seemed very reasonable.
But this was only limited to after he became a Reincarnator!
If he had not become a Reincarnator, after Chu Qi, who was a Reincarnator, died, his own existence should have been erased, and he would have forgotten his existence.
Then, when Song Xian came to investigate him and asked if he remembered Chu Qi, that was a loophole.
Or rather, Song Xian could only rely on that question to confirm whether he was a Reincarnator.
But in fact, he was not a Reincarnator at the time, yet he was still able to remember Chu Qi, and Song Xian did not suspect him of being a Reincarnator because of that.
Then there was only one answer: when Song Xian found him, Chu Qi had not died at all!
And this point, Song Xian also knew.
This was very interesting; Chu Qi, who had not died, had handed that Great Sin Card to him, while Song Xian, who should have known Chu Qi was not dead, did not know that Chu Qi had handed the card to him.
The relationship between these two seemed like collaborators, but they did not share information.
"Tsk, Chu Qi, oh Chu Qi, where exactly are you hiding..."
Bai Cangshu muttered the name of his former friend; he felt that if he wanted to know the mysteries surrounding him, finding Chu Qi might be the only viable plan.
The problem is, how to go about it.
Bai Cangshu tapped on the back of the lounge chair, and the water in the pool rippled outward in circles, as if waves were surging.
Suddenly, he thought of that special department Li Qingzi mentioned; perhaps he really should have a force that could exist in the open.
