Sheriff is willing to have a good quarrel with Paranoid. Anyway, if it's just a quarrel, he's not afraid of the other party.

But Paranoid didn't answer his words at all, and just glanced at him sideways.

But to their surprise, the owner of the starship arrived very quickly. He must have bribed the guards guarding the star port.

However, what made Qu Jianlei dumbfounded was that the middle-aged Rank B had a questioning tone when he opened his mouth.

"Where did you get this starship?"

The three Supreme Beings present looked at him as if they were a fool.

Even if you can't tell our scent, no one told you when you came here. Does this starship have anything to do with anyone? The middle-aged Rank B said nothing when he saw the three of them, and took the initiative to reveal his identity. It turned out that he was not the real owner, but someone from the insurance company.

He stated that he originally thought the starship was crashed, but now it appears that it was taken by force.

This nature is very bad, not to mention that many crew members died in the process.

The insurance company has already paid the relevant expenses. Now that the real owner has appeared, they will naturally come to inquire.

But unfortunately, they really chose the wrong opponent. There were three supremes present.

Neither Sheriff nor Paranoid responded. The former was watching the excitement, while the latter was indifferent.

Qu Jianlei saw that no one spoke, so he could only say lightly, "Courtesy first, then attack, you are not worthy!"

Are all insurance companies fools? Of course it's impossible. The middle-aged Rank B was so aggressive when he arrived, obviously for a reason.

To put it bluntly, it is a routine, just like Space Pirate robbery, always kill the chicken first to scare the monkeys, it is a standard temptation.

If you can't take the lead, others will naturally follow up, either by continuing to put pressure on you, or by giving in.

Anyway, theoretically speaking, the insurance company is the victim. If there is a small attack, who can take it seriously? But Qu Jianlei did not accept this trick and pointed it out without hesitation - you are not qualified to play this.

The middle-aged Rank B was slightly startled when he heard this, and then looked at Sheriff, "Supreme Lord, please be fair."

Qu Jianlei heard this and immediately laughed angrily. Co-author: Do you still know that Sheriff is the Supreme?

He glanced at Sheriff and said, "Thank you for your testimony. He was the one who disrespected me first, not me who killed innocent people indiscriminately!"

When the middle-aged Rank B heard this, his expression suddenly changed, his body instantly moved to the side and back, and he shouted, "Sir, spare your life!"

Sheriff's mouth twitched, "Old Hong Old Hong, this is an official place."

Before he finished speaking, the middle-aged Rank B snorted and fell heavily to the ground.

He didn't come alone, there were three people accompanying him. When he saw this, he rushed forward.

Sheriff glanced at Paranoid, scolding him intentionally, and then thought of this guy's nickname.

He sighed helplessly, "Why am I here? Can you give me some face?"

Paranoid snorted and replied casually, "I can't die again."

He just couldn't bear to see it and punished him lightly, but his tone... was really very supreme.

The people from the insurance company took the middle-aged Rank B aside and immediately reported it to their superiors.

Qu Jianlei The three of them didn't leave, they just watched each other shake people over.

Realizing that something happened here, people came over one after another to see what happened.

Some people just like to join in the fun, but there are also people who are trying to make money as a fugitive and want to see if they can get any business.

Fortunately, Rank B, who was scared away just now, came around after notifying some people - he really didn't dare to leave.

Seeing this, he hurriedly yelled, "Get out of here, my lord... you can see the Supreme Being's affairs?"

To the onlookers, the word "Supreme" was far stronger than "Sir", and they immediately dispersed after hearing this.

At this time, the insurance company's communication was also connected. When they learned that one of their employees had been beaten, the conversation there suddenly became intense.

However, when they heard that Sheriff was also present and still stood on the other side's side, the people from the insurance company hesitated.

"Give your Wristwatch to the Supreme Lord."

Sheriff glanced at the Wristwatch handed over by the other party and didn't bother to accept it at all. He raised his finger and pointed at the Rank B who was protecting Order.

——What kind of cat and dog thing actually wants to talk to me?

There is only Rank A opposite Wristwatch. I heard that Sheriff didn't pick up Wristwatch, and lost his temper, so he could only communicate with Rank B.

This Rank B said a few words casually, and then said, "In addition to Mr. Xie, I have two supremes... What do you want me to do?"

Rank A on the opposite side was stunned for a moment and spoke after a while, "Then it makes sense for them to grab the starship?"

It's not that he's so stubborn that he wants to go all out. Insurance companies are in this kind of business, and he can't back down.

"I snatched it from someone else," Rank B said straightforwardly, regardless of the fact that the other person was Rank A.

He was not sure what exactly happened to this starship, but he believed that Red Supreme was not going to deny what he had done.

So, ninety-nine percent of this starship was stolen from someone else - they even dare to attack Anti-Smuggling Warship, what else can they not dare to do? Rank A asked angrily, "He said it was robbed, so that means it was robbed?"

"You are now questioning the Supreme Being!" Rank B took the opportunity to intimidate the other party, "Do you want me to tell you?"

Can't the Supreme Being question it? Rank A felt a little disapproving, but... he really didn't dare to say that.

So I can only say, "There must be evidence, right?"

Rank B sighed, "Master Xie is accompanying those two supremes now. Doesn't he consider his own reputation?"

Rank A was really at his wits end when he heard this. He had done what he was supposed to do anyway, and it was impossible for him to form a personal grudge because of the company.

Qu Jianlei and Paranoid were not in a hurry to leave. After all, they still had to receive the handheld pass from the Anti-Smuggling Department.

That night, the top executive from the insurance company came forward and contacted Sheriff, and soon found out the inside story.

Knowing that the other party is Hongjingtian's team, and that the starship was snatched from the hands of a wanted criminal, the insurance company has nothing to say.

Ultimately, this is a claims matter that has been settled, but now there is a new situation.

The insurance company really wants to recover the losses, but in such a harsh situation, there is really no way to force it.

In the end, the starship owner obediently took out 100 million, part of which came from the insurance company.

There is no other way, just treat it as a new business. Hongjingtian Team is so notorious that they don't even dare to say "don't buy it".

Three days later, Qu Jianlei and Paranoid drove the dilapidated 8384 to Tianbing Star.

Paranoid doesn't like to talk very much, but when he saw this starship, he couldn't help but complain, "Where is the supreme dignity?"

Big Head Butterfly appeared directly on the screen in the control room, "Respectability... can dignity be spent as money?"

It has been discovered by the other party, so naturally it is not afraid to say a few more words.

"You..." Paranoid's lips trembled a little, "You artificial intelligence knows nothing!"

"Then take out your money and let me take a look," Xiao Hu is really not simple, he actually learned how to use provocation.

"I'm too lazy to argue with you," Paranoid decisively ended the quarrel.

Looks like a poor guy! Qu Jianlei made a judgment.

With this guy's paranoia, he can even quarrel with artificial intelligence. If he was really rich, why wouldn't he be allowed to film it? But it's normal to think about it. When Paranoid hit Above Supreme, I wonder how much preparation was done and how much money was left?

Especially the massive amount of gallium is probably not cheap.

Moreover, that is the impact Above Supreme. If it cannot be overcome, everything will stop. If it is overcome... do you still have to worry about not having money to spend? But there is a question that can be asked now, "Have you brought your formation with you when you come out this time?"

Paranoid hesitated for a while before replying, "I brought it with me, but I will only give you the details when I use your formation."

"Okay," Qu Jianlei replied casually, but for some reason, he always felt that something was wrong with the other party's hesitation.

After the broken 8384 jump, it appeared in the galaxy range of Tianbing Star.

Not long after leaving, an anti-smuggling warship actually came over.

However, after the other party saw 8384's appearance clearly, he was obviously silent for a while.

Skyhook Star Region's Anti-Smuggling Department are all in one. Transit Star's Anti-Smuggling Department had an accident. Of course, other Anti-Smuggling Department also heard about it.

In space, there must be more than one dilapidated starship, but if you add the hull number, it can't be another one.

After a long time, the warship issued a call in a regular manner, "8384, our ship is ordered to inspect passing starships. Please present relevant documents."

——Listen clearly, this is not directed at you. This is our responsibility. If you have any documents, please show them.

Qu Jianlei directly projected the concession pass, "Did you see it?"

Anti-Smuggling Warship was silent for a while before replying again, "The inspection is correct and it will be released!"

During this process, they not only checked the authenticity of the documents, but also investigated who handled it.

This starship that destroyed two Anti-Smuggling Warships and caused the death of several Anti-Smuggling Team Members actually has such a certificate? However, when they found out that it was Sheriff who came forward to handle the matter, there was no way to pursue the matter.

But equally, it is impossible to expect them to be enthusiastic about 8384 Ship.

This is the case in a relatively closed system. In addition to the collective sense of honor, people will also subconsciously hold together for warmth.

That is to say, Sheriff, as the supreme leader, has jumped out of the mold, so he will put aside his prejudices and issue the certificate because of Qu Jianlei's merits.

Anti-Smuggling Warship's attitude is very cold, but why would Qu Jianlei care about this? Just keep sailing.

Suddenly, Paranoid let out a cry, "I'm going, what time..."

Qu Jianlei ignored him. This guy was still adapting to his body, so there was no need to worry about this surprise.

But Big Head Butterfly started to spin. Apart from the boss, this was the only human being it could talk to, "What happened to the time?"

"The time is wrong," Paranoid muttered in a low voice, "Co-author... I only slept for two hundred years?"

He always thought that he had been dormant for four hundred years, but he didn't care what year or month it was now.

Only now did he suddenly realize that he had a serious deviation in his perception of time.
