As expected, after hearing Ling Lan words, the arrogant young woman angrily pushed down on the communicator on her wrist…
"Boss, are we intercepting her communicator?" Little Four shouted enthusiastically. He could finally have the chance to do something.
"Unnecessary. Let's just allow this situation to get more complicated," Ling Lan stopped Little Four from doing anything.
After finally contacting someone, the arrogant young woman finally began to act proudly once again, "Just you wait, my people are coming here right this moment."
"Dumba.s.s!" Ling Lan clicked her tongue at her while looking at her with eyes filled with disdain and mockery. After she said her piece, she disappeared from the second floor in an instant.
"Argh! You actually dare to run away… I'm so angry right now." The arrogant young woman stomped her feet. She angrily turned around and looked towards Li Yinfei and the others who followed her and asked, "Do you know which division that person is from?" She was definitely going to have her father to force that division to hand over that b.a.s.t.a.r.d.
"Ah, I think it was…" The three captain rank officers couldn't remember it at all, it was like they hallucinated the whole event. How could they not remember which division that person is from? In the end the three of them lowered their heads and softly spoke with embarra.s.sment, "Sorry, we didn't pay attention to that."
"You're all a bunch of idiots. You can't even do such a simple task." In the midst of her frustration, the young arrogant woman went down the stairs to find the owner of the store. She ordered them to give her surveillance footage. Although the owner wasn't willing, she complied after knowing the ident.i.ty of the young woman. The owner could only helplessly give a copy of the surveillance footage to the woman. She was, however, worried about the young officers who had angered this woman…
Huh? How did that officer look like? The owner couldn't remember. Maybe it was because she was so busy and wasn't paying attention to it, the owner thought that was the case.
After acquiring the footage, Young Miss Qi contacted her father to send him the footage. After crying and complaining for half an hour, she finally made Vice General Qi angry. He ordered all of the soldiers from the 13th Division, stationed in Soldier City along with the 13th Division's Wild Lion Ace Mecha Clan's Regiment Commander, who had just arrived at the city, to aid in search of that person. Then, they were ordered to ruthlessly teach that person a lesson.
Li Yinfei, who left with Young Miss Qi, felt odd. She clearly saw the face of the individual, but why couldn't she remember it? She only knew that the person was young and was a major with cold att.i.tude… Other than that, she couldn't remember anything else. The strangest part was that all five of them only remembered these details and didn't have any other information. It was too much of a coincidence.
Ling Lan appeared miles away from the location in an instant. She suddenly frowned and stopped abruptly. She retracted all of her aura and silently melded with the soldiers walking around the streets. She disappeared into the crowd in the blink of an eye without any traces.
Right after that, two silhouettes suddenly appeared on top of different buildings, overlooking the crowded streets with suspicion, but they couldn't find any traces of what they were looking for.
On one of the buildings, a middle-aged buff man suddenly appeared beside an old man, who was one of the silhouettes from before.
"Elder Lian, did you find anything?" The suspicion in the eyes of the man was still oozing out. It seemed that he was quite worried about the fact that they had lost their target and let the target get away.
"That person is very capable. If my guess is correct, that person should have already reached the imperial level and is a domain expert. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to easily escape from us. Unfortunately, the traces and clues he left was minimal. We can't figure out who he actually is." Elder Lian also had worry in his expression. Imperial level was the strongest existence in terms of domain. These super strong individuals were considered to be the military's trump cards that didn't move about much. Why is that person in Soldier City?
Elder Lian's words made the man's expression changed slightly. Only after reaching their current status, would people understand the terror of an imperial level domain expert…
"Isn't the military planning on honoring the top ten mecha clans from the latest land clearing mission? Elder Lian, do you think this is why that person has come?" The middle-aged man seemed to have remembered something and quickly told Elder Lian his thoughts.
Elder Lian was reminded of this fact and nodded slightly, "Indeed, that's a possibility."
Perhaps there was someone whose background was beyond their understanding. That was maybe why an imperial level domain expert was guarding him or her in the shadows. Something like this was common, but it wasn't overly exaggerated like this time. The expert guarding the VIP was at a terrifying level.
"What should we do now? Should we report this to the military? The middle-aged man frowned. An imperial level domain expert wasn't someone he or Elder Lian could handle.
"It's unnecessary. Every imperial level domain expert would report to the military if they were to be stationed or be on leave. If the military hadn't notified us, then that means they don't want us to know of his existence. We should just pretend we don't know anything." Elder Lian lived for so long and understood very well the military's methods. He didn't want to get mixed up in unnecessary trouble.
The middle-aged nodded his head, symbolizing he understood. Soldier City wasn't like other planets, where people from other countries could mix in. Those who could enter Soldier City would have had their backgrounds checked and were only allowed to enter after finding no issues with them.
Thus, this imperial level domain expert who had entered Soldier City was definitely serving the Federation. Every movement of imperial level domain experts was under the scrutiny of the military. If the military didn't say anything then, that meant all of the movements of this imperial level domain expert was approved by the military.
The two domain experts found the answer that they thought was correct. Not long after, they disappeared away from the building.
At that moment, Ling Lan lifted her head and looked towards the sky. She didn't think that there were actually two domain experts stationed in Soldier City. They were also very strong and were probably domain experts who were given t.i.tles. If it wasn't for the fact that she was alert, she may have been discovered.
"Boss, they took the footage." Little Four, who was watching the surveillance of the store,shouted as he saw that the annoying and ugly woman happily took a copy of the footage he had forged. In order to create this video footage, Little Four used up a bunch of his brain cells… Uh, did intelligent ent.i.ties like him have brain cells? Whatever, if he didn't have brain cells, then he at least had to sacrifice a bunch of 0s and 1s.
Hearing this Ling Lan smirked, "Then, let the scene unfold… I hope they won't disappoint me." She had to test the waters of the military and each division. She hadn't forgotten about the hatred towards the military for her father's losses back then that made her family split apart.
"Oh right, Little Blossom, how do you feel? It's not uncomfortable right?" After planning out everything, Ling Lan finally remembered about Little Blossom, who was in her minds.p.a.ce holding his big belly while burping continuously.
Little Blossom, who Ling Lan was worried about since he ate too much, now narrowed his eyes with a bright and a satisfied smile on his face. Hearing that his master asked him a question, he immediately replied, "Yes, good… uh… happy!" Little Blossom was hiccuping to the point where he couldn't complete a sentence, but he didn't sound uncomfortable at all.
"Master's so nice." She actually allowed him to devour the memory of so many people. He hadn't tasted anything like that in a long time, he almost forgot the amazing taste of people's memories.
Additionally, he wanted to thank his Elder brother Little Four for saving him from the clutches of that terrifying woman… Little Blossom looked towards Little Four with gratefulness in his eyes. As expected, elder brother was the best.
Little Blossom looked towards Little Four with a raised brow. This made Little Four's hairs stand on end as he s.h.i.+vered… Why does Little Blossom's expression seem so weird? What did he learn from Number Four?
Seeing Little Blossom full of happiness with bubbles coming out of his nose, Ling Lan knew she worried for nothing. They must keep their promise and return Little Blossom to Number Four since he had finished his task…
Ling Lan shot a glance at Little Four, Little Four immediately understood her intent and immediately kicked Little Blossom, who still had a face full of happiness, back into the learning s.p.a.ce.
Ahhhh! Ling Lan's minds.p.a.ce had Little Blossom's cries of agony echoing throughout it as Little Blossom was kicked away. The bubbles of happiness that filled the minds.p.a.ce were finally destroyed one by one. Ling Lan and Little Four looked at each other with mutual understanding in each other's eyes. As expected, without those things around them, they felt much better.
As for Boss's departure, Han Xuya and Luo Chao didn't know about it. However, not long after, they received Ling Lan's message telling them that he had left temporarily and couldn't continue shopping with them.
Luo Chao and Han Xuya didn't think much of it. If Boss wasn't busy then he wasn't Boss. They were already satisfied that their Boss could shop with them for one to two hours.
In the base camp of the 13th Division troops stationed in the city, not only was the regiment commander of the stationed troops there, the Regiment Commander of the Wild Lion Ace Mecha Clan, one of the top 10 mecha clans, Yue Putian was also there. The two of them watched the video footage of the dispute between the young major and their vice general's daughter. After watching intently, they both frowned.
"Brother He, this will be difficult." Yue Putian and the regiment commander of the stationed troops, He Junyi was his old friend so they weren't formal around each other. He immediately spoke out his thoughts.
"It's actually that person. Our Young Miss Qi really knows how to create problems for us." He Junyi also had a difficult expression on his face.
"Qiao Ting, the person the Third Marshal thinks highly of. He's a genius who is nurtured by the higher-ups of the 3rd Division. Even if it was Vice General Qi, he would still have to weigh the options of whether offending the Third Marshal for his daughter is worth it." Yue Putian rubbed his nose. Ever since he received the orders from his vice general to find out about this situation, he knew trouble was coming.
How could normal people shop in Soldier City? These people were either capable mecha operators or individuals with strong family or military backgrounds. Although Yue Putian had made some preparations knowing that the opponent knew of Young Miss Qi's background and yet still didn't give in to her demands. It meant that he definitely had some sort of background. It was just that after knowing who the person was, his head began to ache.
Qiao Ting can't be touched!
Yue Putian knew this very well, but if he didn't discipline Qiao Ting, he wouldn't be able to face Vice General Qi. After all, Young Miss Qi was vice general's precious baby daughter. It was also because of this, Young Miss Qi was spoiled to the point of becoming this arrogant and irritating person, causing many problems wherever she goes.
She was lucky in the past because those who she offended before were individuals without much background. Those situations were easily handled and wouldn't cause any huge problems. It was just that her luck had finally ran out. After coming to the Soldier City, she managed to anger someone she shouldn't have.
