"Phew~"
Cao Wenliang, having just eaten dinner, comfortably blew several smoke rings.
A cigarette after a meal surpasses a living fairy.
"It's been a while, Bai Fu must have some news by now."
Cao Wenliang opened the window, contentedly scanning the scene outside.
In reality, he didn't necessarily need that supervisor position; with his status, having one more or one less supervisor made no difference.
But, who made him promise assertively in front of his subordinates that he would secure the newly vacant supervisor position for them?
In places like the Abandoned Cooling Factory, besides money and power, what everyone needs is a face that earns respect!
Bai Fu indeed had no intention of provoking him, but since she had entered the scene and offended him, the only thing waiting for her was a dead end.
Cao Wenliang pressed the cigarette butt on the windowsill.
Crackle!
A little bug was mercilessly charred to a crisp.
Cao Wenliang casually threw the cigarette butt into the trash can; just then, sudden noises erupted from outside the window.
"What's going on?"
He pushed the door and walked outside, only peering around for a few seconds before a subordinate, out of breath, ran up to him.
"Minister, n-no-no good!"
Cao Wenliang glared, "What's the rush? The sky isn't falling."
"Yes, yes." The underling submissively dared not talk back.
Cao Wenliang sneered, "Speak, what happened?"
The underling hastily reported, "Minister, Bai Fu, she and her team went out and captured ten foreigners!"
"How many?"
Cao Wenliang was unsure if he had heard correctly.
Bai Fu capturing foreigners was one thing, but to nab ten all at once—fuck me, what the hell, were you catching people or stocking up?
He could stand it no longer, and ran towards the source of the shouting.
The underling who came to report helplessly shrugged, see, you're anxious too.
Minutes later, near the main gate of the Wildfire Gang, hundreds of people had gathered.
"Hiss—"
"Hiss↑"
Cao Wenliang almost thought he'd entered a snake pit.
Fucking hell, what's there to hiss about?
"Move, get out of my way!"
He furiously started pushing people, and after shoving five to six people aside, his view suddenly cleared.
"I want to see... hiss!"
Cao Wenliang sucked in a breath of cold air.
In the crowd, Bai Fu led the way; on her left was a member of her team, and in her right hand, she held a rope, leading ten foreigners tied to it.
The scene wasn't particularly grand, but it stunned everyone present.
It would take ages even to catch ten piglets, and you rounded up ten people in one afternoon?
Are you kidding me?
Cao Wenliang felt bitter.
Now, who could question whether Bai Fu's achievements were enough for a supervisor position?
He looked up only to see the leader of the Wildfire Gang rallying all members to learn from the newly-promising Bai Fu.
"Everyone, take a good look. Don't just react physically to situations. Use your brains more often. If you don't use your brain, you'll stay at the bottom forever!"
Cao Wenliang quickly asked someone beside him.
"How did she do it?"
"Ah, Minister Cao? It was like this: Supervisor Bai spotted these foreigners cooking, so she and her team members deliberately lured them away and then secretly drugged their food, knocking them all out. Ah, Supervisor Bai really is bold and meticulous; if only I were half as smart as her," said a member of the Wildfire Gang with a look of admiration.
Cao Wenliang couldn't stand this scene any longer and turned to leave.
"Wenliang, you're here."
The leader's call came from behind.
Cao Wenliang had no choice but to turn back, "Haha, boss, you're free to come here too."
The boss smiled and clapped Cao Wenliang on the shoulder, "Come come, Wenliang, meet the rising star of our Wildfire Gang. Speaking of which, you deserve some credit for this. I've been so busy lately that I hadn't thought about assigning a new supervisor to Martin's team, but now, we've unexpectedly discovered a very promising newcomer, hahaha."
Cao Wenliang: "..."
He wanted to laugh along, but he just couldn't.
Praising Bai Fu is one thing, but having to do it simultaneously, you are killing me, aren't you?
This damn world!
```
Cao Wenliang was already on the verge of exploding with anger.
Stay calm, stay calm, this is the time to stay calm!
Thinking this, he suddenly noticed that several outsiders were curiously watching him, their eyes filled not with fear but with curiosity.
Cao Wenliang's fury surged once again.
Am I, Old Cao, unable to wield a knife, or have you guys become so bold, feeling no fear even when captured?
"What are you looking at?"
He angrily walked up to the closest Digging Girl.
These past few days, Digging Girl had gradually adapted to the realism of the game, so even under Cao Wenliang's glare, she wasn't frightened but instead took a few more glances.
Wenliang?
Wasn't it someone called Cao Wenliang who was behind the assassination of Bai Fu? Could it be this guy?
While Digging Girl was still guessing, Cao Wenliang burst out laughing.
He was actually being ignored by outsiders!
Okay, okay, okay, these outsiders killed his men and totally disregarded him, he wanted to see if these outsiders really were not afraid of death!
Cao Wenliang raised his right hand high.
Just as he was about to strike down, his peripheral vision caught Bai Fu.
"You, go kill her."
"Ah, me?"
Bai Fu pointed at herself.
Cao Wenliang said, "Yes, you go. Haven't you noticed? These outsiders you captured aren't scared at all. There are usually only two explanations for this: first, they truly aren't afraid of death; second, they are actually with you, intentionally getting caught by you to infiltrate the Wildfire Gang."
"This, this isn't right, is it?"
Before Bai Fu could respond, her teammates began protesting, looking towards their leader, hoping he would step forward and say something.
The leader smiled and said, "Keeping ten people is indeed a bit much, a waste of food, just interrogate them for information; keeping two or three alive will be enough."
Although the leader didn't openly support him, Cao Wenliang knew he had turned things around this time.
No matter if the leader scolded or punished him afterwards, he wouldn't be in big trouble since he hadn't attacked Bai Fu directly, but it was different for Bai Fu.
If she was indeed colluding with the outsiders, whether she killed these outsiders or not, it would not end well for her.
If she had no connection with the outsiders, suddenly killing so many of them would certainly enrage the outsiders, and they would not let her off easily.
"What are you spacing out for, hurry up." Cao Wenliang urged.
His attitude immediately caused discontent among the players, especially those in the live stream.
From the moment Digging Girl entered Wildfire Gang's actual controlled territory, she started live streaming, attracting many players to watch by claiming she was visiting the Wildfire Gang.
"Damn, forcing Bai Fu to kill us?"
"Just looking at his face tells you he's no good."
"I thought the leader was decent when he praised Fu just now; I didn't expect him to be an old penny too."
"What now? Can Fu manage to do it? If she can't, won't that cause a problem?"
Digging Girl and others quickly made eye signals to Bai Fu.
Patrick even started shouting directly: "Kill, come on, kill, do you think I am scared?"
"Shut up, damn outsiders, all of you deserve to die!"
Cao Wenliang roared, finally bringing silence, and he watched Bai Fu with a cold expression.
"Get on with it. If you don't act, I think everyone will suspect you have a problem."
Bai Fu's expression turned strange.
Dude, do you really know what you just did?
Shouting in front of a bunch of players that players deserve to die is totally a declaration of war!
Causing trouble with a witch is scary enough, let alone disturbing the fourth Catastrophe; now truly no one can save you.
Forget it, forget it.
I'll give you a three-second moment of silence.
"If you say so, then I must prove myself."
Taking out a dagger, Bai Fu walked towards Patrick under everyone's gaze, and then she plunged the knife into Patrick's heart.
"You killed Patrick, gaining 200 experience points."
Hmm, wait, killing players also yields experience?
The sudden game notification startled Bai Fu.
She then burst into laughter; one Patrick gave 200 experience, killing six or seven more players would surely bring eight or nine hundred; considering the experience she had already saved, she could level up again.
To be honest, Bai Fu was a bit unclear whether Cao Wenliang was a good guy or a bad guy to her.
Although Cao Wenliang had been targeting her all the time, from the time he sent people to bribe players to assassinate her, it seemed like each time Cao Wenliang targeted her, she made a big gain.
Take this time for instance, she was the one killing the players and earning experience, but Cao Wenliang voluntarily took all the blame.
If Big Brother Dabiao was her Top 1 Funder, then Cao Wenliang could totally be called her angel investor.
Thank you, Wenliang!
