Xu Jingming only relaxed after the gold and silver were deposited in the bank. I’m finally done with everything.
Of course, there was also Sword Dharmaraja’s weapon, Cheng Yanran’s jade pendant, and other items hidden in a residence. Things were still tense at the moment, so it wasn’t suitable for him to make a move. The price he received from disposing of them now would be too low.
I’ll take a shower first. Xu Jingming didn’t like going to the bathhouses. Instead, he would rather go through the effort of boiling some hot water, take a nice bath, and change into new clothes.
He wore his uniform under a green robe. He then hung a wine gourd at his waist and carried his spear holster before leisurely strolling toward the South Wing HQ.
I only went to the Procuratorate on my first day; I haven’t been there recently. I really don’t deserve my salary. Xu Jingming mocked himself. This was because he was under the direct management of the Procuratorate’s head, Judge Niu. Judge Niu had already said that he wouldn’t care about him for the next few months, so he was naturally very relaxed.
There’s still more than half a month before the employment deadline for the cosmic citizen player team I have. I can’t waste them. Whether I can gather 10,000 gold depends on this half a month.
First, I have to find good hunting targets. Xu Jingming came to the hall where the Procuratorate kept the dossiers and began reading them carefully.
The last time he did so was to deal with Cheng Yanran. This time… In order to determine a target for the hunt, he read widely.
Gulp.
With the wine gourd beside him, he occasionally took a sip and patiently read the dossiers.

Candles as thick as a child’s arm lit up the hall the entire day and even at night, brightly illuminating the area.
“Mm.” After reading so many scrolls, he had some targets in mind.
There are many rich people in the capital, but most of them only have fixed assets! Even if they have cash… they are encrypted banknotes, Xu Jingming thought to himself.
Wealthy families usually used encrypted banknotes, so it was useless for thieves to rob them. If they lost the banknotes, they could still withdraw the money with their identity tokens or ciphers.
I need hard cash in the form of gold and silver. Those who dare to stockpile that much gold and silver aren’t to be trifled with. He closed the dossier.
The places that stored the most gold and silver, such as large banks and the headquarters of Seven Kills Building, were all heavily guarded. How could a team like his afford to provoke them? Moreover, with too much gold and silver, it was obvious that the world would end up targeting them.
There are 20 to 30 candidates now. Xu Jingming roughly determined the scope. There’s no rush. There’s still plenty of time.
These candidates earned their money through dishonest means; they were a scourge to many.
Xu Jingming felt that he was enforcing justice on behalf of the heavens!
Urgh. Xu Jingming got up and stretched. Then, he hung the wine gourd at his waist and walked out with his spear holster.
It was already dark outside, and many Blood Rain Guards had left their offices for dinner.
“Brother Jing.” Xu Jingming walked around the small city for a while before he suddenly heard a pleasant voice.
Xu Jingming turned his head and saw the one-armed swordswoman, Qiu Tong. Qiu Tong looked very happy.
“Sister Qiu Tong.” Xu Jingming happily walked over.
“I heard that you went to the Procuratorate. I tried looking for you, but I couldn’t find you,” Qiu Tong said.
“I’m just doing some idle work now. I don’t usually need to do anything and can just wander around,” Xu Jingming replied.
Qiu Tong immediately said, “Let’s go. It’s rare for us to meet—my treat today.”
“Alright.” He didn’t decline.
After leaving South Wing, the two of them found a secluded restaurant.
There were only two private rooms on the restaurant’s second floor, and the two of them entered one of them.
“Although this place looks ordinary, their culinary standards are really extraordinary. I come here every few days, and it’s only because it’s quite a distance from the South Wing that I would otherwise visit more frequently.” Qiu Tong smiled.
Xu Jingming could tell that Qiu Tong was living quite comfortably.
“I’ll order,” she said warmly.
A girl walked into the private room and said familiarly, “Sister Qiu, nice to see you again.”
“Give me 2.5 kilograms of spiced beef first. Their spiced beef is completely different from other restaurants,” Qiu Tong explained before ordering a few more dishes. “Lastly, two large bowls of beef mushroom rice and a jar of your Green Leaf Wine. Xiaoqin, serve the dishes quickly.”
“Leave it to me.” The girl immediately left to make arrangements.
Soon, a jar of Green Leaf Wine and a large portion of spiced beef were served.
“Hmm.” Xu Jingming picked up a piece of spiced beef with his chopsticks and took a bite. He immediately felt as if his taste buds were rejuvenated.
The beef was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and it was extremely juicy. Xu Jingming’s teeth were sharp, and he finished it in two bites.
For qualified experts like Xu Jingming and Qiu Tong, their digestive abilities were very strong after attaining cellular control. Eating 10 to 15 kilograms of meat in a meal was trivial. Of course, they might also lose 5 to 10 kilograms in an intense battle.
Under their control, what they lost was almost all fat.
“Not bad, not bad,” Xu Jingming said. “This spiced beef has an additional ‘roasting’ process?”
“Yes, they pick their ingredients carefully, and the surface is a little crispy while ensuring that the inside is tender.” Qiu Tong also ate.
One dish after another was served.
Green Leaf Wine was a relatively light alcoholic drink.
“Sister Qiu Tong, you seem to be living quite a good life. You know many gourmet restaurants around the area.” Xu Jingming held a T-bone in one hand and couldn’t help but praise Qiu Tong as he listened to her talk about delicacies.
“Actually, I was quite bored when I first arrived at the Prison Bureau,” Qiu Tong said while drinking. “The Prison Bureau is too boring. I’m in charge of guarding the prisoners every day like a fool. There aren’t any bold thieves who attempt a jailbreak in the South Wing HQ, so I’m bored out of my mind every day. Fleecing a little out of the prisoners is the only thing that’s slightly interesting.”
