Chapter 100: Chapter 99: "You'll know just how dark Fengtian City can be.
```
Chen Miao, who instantaneously became rich, didn't forget Dr. Gou in Broken Pot City and transferred 500,000 credit points to him immediately before heading straight to the location Zhou Shen had given him.
The auction would start at noon.
It was now half past ten, eating a meal nearby would roughly coincide with the start.
Carrying such a huge sum of money, he was beginning to contemplate whether to take over the entire auction, it was simply too much to spend.
...
"Oura Clubhouse".
A private clubhouse run by some magnate of Fengtian City, not open to the public, today's gunner auction was also being held in this clubhouse. After arriving at the location, Chen Miao didn't go in right away, instead, he casually chose a restaurant next door.
Preparing to eat.
Yes.
Looking at Hungry Monkey gobbling down his food, even someone who wasn't hungry couldn't help but salivate.
At this moment—
A young man with an icy expression, followed by three stout men, strode towards them.
"Chen Miao, right?"
"Let me introduce myself, I am from the Chi Family, Yu'er's cousin."
"I watched your livestream in the big event too. You're not bad among the gunmen but that's it. You need to remember your place, your distance from the Chi Family is like the galaxy to the dust on the ground."
"Out of politeness, I'll warn you once, if I find you in contact with Yu'er again, especially filling his head with talk about roasted sweet potatoes being the best food to eat in winter, something that low-class people discuss—"
The young man paused momentarily.
Slowly bringing his head close to Chen Miao, his voice laced with an unmistakable threat and a sneer said, "You'll find out how dark Fengtian City really is."
"Got it."
The young man provocatively patted Chen Miao on the shoulder, then spit a thick wad of phlegm into the bowl of zhajiang noodles in front of Chen Miao.
"..."
Chen Miao, who had been happily eating his noodles, suddenly fell silent, then after a pause, he ignored the troublemaker beside him and directly dialed Zhou Shen, "Hey, I have a question."
"If I kill someone in the city center, can you cover for me?"
"Uh..."
The voice on the other end clearly hesitated, stuttering for quite a while before he hoarsely said, "Covered!"
No sooner had he spoken!
Chen Miao almost instantly drew a Thompson submachine gun from his bosom, stood up and pointed it at the young man's head beside him, and pulled the trigger. The protective barrier shattered almost instantly, the bullets easily burrowed into the young man's brain.
Simple and crisp.
At the same time, Chen Miao turned the muzzle towards the three henchmen behind the young man. Even though these three looked completely frozen in place, he showed no mercy and let loose another burst.
It was over in the blink of an eye.
Four heaps of flesh lay on the ground.
The patrons of the restaurant had already scattered, screaming everywhere, and the restaurant owner wisely hid in the kitchen right away, not showing his face.
Chen Miao simply tossed the bowl of zhajiang noodles to one side, looked down at the four spills of blood and flesh with a frown, and felt it seemed unlikely he'd be able to move bodies to the cemetery anymore; those who died by his hand seldom remained whole.
But his mood was still quite good.
The feeling of killing someone inside was truly wonderful; being covered for killing someone in the downtown area was solid!
```
Otherwise, being publicly provoked like this and leaving safely would leave him feeling sick to his stomach when he thought about it before sleeping tonight. He used to put up with it when he didn't have the capability, but now, even he was afraid of his own firepower. And yet, you still dare to provoke him like this, really leaving him with no choice but to kill!
And when did he ever chat with Chi Yu'er?
Barefaced slander!
Immediately slandering him without discerning black from white, that's really infuriating!
"Miao... brother?"
The Hungry Monkey, who was in the midst of eating, saw this scene and was a bit dumbfounded: "He's killed just like that? This is a member of the Chi Family."
"The Chi Family?"
Chen Miao scoffed disdainfully: "So what about the Chi Family? Can they be so arrogant? Can't they speak properly? I have no ties anyway. If the Chi Family has any complaints, I'll just hide in the shadows and give them a surprise assassination."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
"And just how dark do they think the skies of Fengtian City are? In a society governed by law, what are they trying to achieve with these antics!"
"Let's go."
After this incident, he lost any desire to keep eating.
The rest would be dealt with by others; he had already sent the location to Zhou Shen.

Zhou Shen, having just taken office and sitting in his office, felt a twinge of unease after hanging up the phone. The matter of killing someone in the city center is actually very difficult to handle, especially when it happened in broad daylight and was witnessed by many people. It had to be dealt with seriously, and a warrant for arrest was necessary.
Miao had once asked him if he could get Doctor Gou's arrest warrant canceled.
His answer was no.
Once a warrant is out, canceling it requires a high level of authority, far beyond his reach. Once you're on the wanted list, it's extremely difficult to pull any strings. But generally, before issuing a warrant, they give you one night to work your connections. If you can't move things by tonight, by the next day you'll just have to wait for your name to come up.
But Miao had helped him with so much, and hardly ever asked him for any favors. The one time he did, if Zhou were to say he couldn't handle it, wouldn't that make him seem ungrateful?
Even though the situation was tricky.
But with a bit of thinking, as long as not too many people were killed, the scene wasn't too dreadful, and the victim wasn't of too high status, pinning it on a scapegoat to satisfy all parties wasn't too difficult to manage.
While Zhou Shen was deep in thought, he received the location and the victim's information sent by Chen Miao.
"Hmm, a collateral relative of the Chi Family, the first cousin of Miss Chi."
Seeing the death list, Zhou Shen suddenly became expressionless and silent. If everything went as usual, Miao would surely get out of this unscathed.
The Chi Family would handle this matter.
Such a blatant affront to the Chi Family—if they didn't respond, they could forget about their standing in Fengtian City in the future. They definitely couldn't just watch as Chen Miao was arrested or put on the wanted list. They must confront Chen Miao in their own way.
Everything was fine yesterday, so why did they suddenly come to blows?
Wait, it couldn't be the baked sweet potato issue, could it? Damn, did he forget to mention it to Miao this morning?
...
"Well, Miao brother..."
The Hungry Monkey suddenly remembered something and awkwardly touched his nose, whispering, "I think I just recalled that the man seemed to be talking about me. Didn't Chi Yu'er accidentally call me last time?"
"Then she realized she had called the wrong number."
"We chatted casually after that, and I think I did mention that the best food to eat in winter was baked sweet potato... I just didn't expect the Chi Family to be so sensitive about this."
"It's nothing."
Chen Miao narrowed his eyes slightly, shaking his head without speaking. He hadn't killed these people on a whim; he had a plan in mind all along. As he was deciding which power would be suitable as the backdrop for his plan,
the Chi Family jumped out.
