Portable Abode, Li Banfeng carefully examined the materials, studying the principles of the Magnetic Vibration Cannon.

According to Shen Jingye's description, Xiao Zhengong was arrested by Liao Zihui because he had designs on the boundary line.

Li Banfeng didn't know how Xiao Zhengong had survived, but he knew how Xiao Zhengong had been arrested. Newspapers in Pro State had reported on it, and some even included photos. Upon learning that Xiao Zhengong was still alive, Luo ZhengNan was terrified and immediately called Li Qi.

According to Lao Luo's description, Xiao Zhengong's experience was similar to Li Banfeng's previous experience, except that the halo of the House Cultivator had turned into a boundary line between different places.

Xiao Zhengong was surrounded by the boundary line, then the boundary line lit up, and then he became the brightest man in Pro State that night.

The Magnetic Vibration Cannon is not used to close the boundary, nor does it have the function of strengthening the boundary. Its only function is to change the trajectory and brightness of the boundary, which results in the fact that whoever uses the Magnetic Vibration Cannon will be caught.

Li Banfeng felt it was a pity that so much work and so many materials were used to produce such a thing.

Portable Abode didn't feel any regret at all. "Seventh Brother, since this thing is useless, quickly dismantle it and destroy all these parts, so as not to cause any more trouble."

Li Banfeng shook his head and said, "It's not that it's completely useless."

Putting everything else aside, this thing can change the boundary and also the aura created by the Shut-in Cultivation Technique. This proves that the essence of the boundary and the aura of the House Cultivator are very similar, or even completely identical.

Is it possible that the boundaries of Pro State originated from a powerful group of House Cultivator?

Was there a great war between House Cultivator back then? After the fierce battle, many high-level House Cultivator established their own territories, which became the boundaries we see today?

If there really were a great battle House Cultivator, my Wife would probably bring it up. Even if Wife didn't want to, she should bring up the other magical treasures.

Perhaps because of the passage of time, the Wife forgot, and the people of Pro State forgot as well.

If all the Proper Land were won by House Cultivator through fighting, why are the Local Earth God all cultivators from other sects? How did they manage to seize the territories from the House Cultivator?

Historical events are impossible to investigate, but this Magnetic Vibration Cannon was certainly useful; at the very least, it caused a substantial change to the boundary.

Whether we can change the approach requires some in-depth research.

Li Banfeng was still carefully reading the materials Portable Abode reminded him, "No need to look anymore, what's written there is the Work Method, not the theoretical method."

That's right, this is purely an engineering manual introducing Work Method, with very little explanation of the underlying principles.

If you can't find the underlying principles, you can only figure it out on your own. But the academic problems of dark matter are not something an undergraduate student can figure out.

Who can understand this kind of knowledge?

Li Banfeng walked out of Portable Abode and stood on the balcony of his residence, looking at the beautiful sunrise on the horizon.

Beautiful sunrise —

He thought of someone, Teacher Song, who was as beautiful as the rising sun.

Teacher Song teaches mathematics, but perhaps he can introduce you to an expert who studies dark matter.

Liao Zihui personally went to the Train Station to pick up Special Envoy Xu Shouming and bring him to the Guanfang Hall. In the next phase, Special Envoy Xu will be in charge of the cases related to private investigator Spider Bin, the entrance to the Soda Kiln Inner State, and the famous general Zhao Xiaowan.

Liao Zihui's task was to fully cooperate with Special Envoy Xu in carrying out relevant work.

Xu Shouming had some understanding of Pro State. He and Liao Zihui had both worked Pro State for many years and had both strived to become the Chief of the General Envoy. However, Liao Zihui succeeded, while Xu Shouming was transferred back to Outer State.

Tang Huanjie knew about the special relationship between the two and was worried that there might be some conflict between them.

There were indeed holidays, but Liao Zihui remained calm. "The past is the past, Xu Shouming is not that kind of person."

Upon arriving at the Guanfang Hall, Xu Shouming made his point clear. "With our combined efforts and full cooperation, we can achieve our goals."

Only then can this arduous task be accomplished.

Liao Zihui stated directly, "Envoy Xu, just ask for our manpower, resources, and finances; the Guanfang Hall will go all out!"

Xu Shouming laughed and said, "This operation has a special fund, Guanfang Hall is also short of funds. How could I possibly ask General Envoy Liao for help?"

This is a clear message to Liao Zihui: the money won't be spent on you.

Liao Zihui nodded repeatedly, his expression natural.

Xu Shouming continued, "The Guanfang Hall is very busy and its manpower is already limited. I would be embarrassed to make things difficult for General Envoy Liao in terms of manpower."

What he meant was quite clear: he didn't need your support in terms of manpower.

Xu Shouming brought quite a few people this time, a total of 126 people, from all walks of life, with a full complement of personnel.

Liao Zihui smiled and nodded repeatedly.

Xu Shouming continued, "The higher-ups attach great importance to this special operation and have provided us with a lot of equipment. This equipment needs to be specially stored, and I don't think our Guanfang Hall has any extra space. We'll have to trouble General Envoy Liao with this matter."

This sentence conveys two meanings.

One meaning is that Liao Zihui's support is not needed in terms of resources.

Another meaning is that Xu Shouming needs a dedicated office space; he wants the Special Project Team to have its own signboard and boundaries, and he doesn't want to work in the Guanfang Hall Department.

Liao Zihui readily agreed and contacted Ma Wu for help, renting a large house for Xu Shouming in Green Water City.

Ma Wu was troubled. He should help with this; after so many twists and turns, he and Liao Zihui had some connection.

Moreover, Liao Zihui made it clear that the rent would be paid in full, without any shortfall, and he would never try to take advantage of Ma Wu.

Ma Wu didn't know much about Xu Shouming's background, so he couldn't decide which place to rent.

Luo ZhengNan offered a suggestion. "Fifth Master, let's vacate the Jiang Xiang Gang's headquarters and see what General Envoy Liao's attitude is."

Ma Wu was taken aback. "Lao Luo, isn't the Jiang Xiang Gang headquarters your territory? How can you give it to them?"

Lao Luo waved his hand repeatedly and said, "If General Envoy Liao takes a liking to it, I'll give it to him. I don't want to stay in that place for even a day longer."

Luo ZhengNan was telling the truth. Ever since he heard that Xiao Zhengong had come back to life, he felt uneasy whenever he saw Jiang Xiang Gang's headquarters.

Is it appropriate for Special Project Team Envoy sent from Outer State to reside at the former site of Jiang Xiang Gang?

Ma Wu told Liao Zihui about it, expecting Liao Zihui to refuse, but to his surprise, Liao Zihui was very satisfied.

"Jun Yang, it's settled. It'll be at Jiang Xiang Garden!"

Ma Wu reminded him, "General Envoy Liao, you said it yourself. If Special Envoy Xu blames you, you'll have to take responsibility for me."

"Who can he blame?" Liao Zihui sneered. "He came to Pro State on business with over a hundred men, demanding his own land and signboard, which we gave him."

It's already difficult to accommodate so many people, and we've found such a suitable place for him, so what right does he have to complain?

This matter originated from Xiao Zhengong, who is the Gang Leader of the Jiang Xiang Gang Xiao Zhengong. Isn't it appropriate for him to work at the original site of the Jiang Xiang Gang?

Jun Yang, you have to ask him for the rent, not a penny less. Don't be polite with him. If you're too embarrassed to ask, I'll ask him for you!

From Liao Zihui's reaction, one can see the relationship between the two, Ma Wu also knows how to get along with this Special Envoy Xu.

Xu Shouming didn't pick a place at all. He even expressed his gratitude to Ma Wu. After settling his men in, Xu Shouming didn't rush to start investigating the case. Instead, he invited a few old friends over to drink and reminisce.

He actually had quite a few friends in Pro State, including Shen Jinzhong, the Big Gold Seal of the Three Heroes Gate, Han Yaomen, the First Boss of the Azure Cloud Society, and Bai Wuchuan, the White Crane Gang Bai Wuchuan. These people all had good relationships with Xu Shouming.

At the banquet, Xu Shouming said politely, "I've returned to Pro State on official business. Whether I can get it done or not depends entirely on your help."

I want to bring private investigator Spider Bin back. This whole series of events is all because of him. If any of you see Spider Bin's whereabouts, please be sure to let me know.

The group immediately agreed, "Envoy Xu, rest assured, we will inform you immediately as soon as we have any news about that fake foreign devil."

This is utter nonsense, just as nonsensical as saying "I'll treat you to dinner another day."

Xu Shouming didn't gather these old friends for idle chatter. He produced an agreement. "Whoever can find clues about Spider Bin —just the clues, not the person—this contract is theirs. With this contract, their shipping costs for business in Pro State will be halved!"

These words made everyone uneasy.

In Pro State, only Li Qi and Ma Wu's businesses can reduce freight costs by half. Others who want to save on travel expenses have to find them to ship their goods. Not only do they have to pay the difference in price, but they also have to have a good relationship with them for them to be willing to help them out.

Now that they have this opportunity, they all want to get things done.

The White Crane Gang, in particular, is a sect specializing in physical cultivation. Spider Bin was once a disciple of their sect, and some of his connections also came from the White Crane Gang.

But Bai Wuchuan was a little worried: was this contract real?

He knew that Xu Shouming and Liao Zihui didn't have a very good relationship, since Liao Zihui ultimately controlled the freight charges.

This is indeed true. Although Liao Zihui controls the shipping costs, at this critical juncture, Liao Xu Shouming will have to agree as long as Liao Zihui Shouming asks. He cannot make things difficult for Xu Shouming regarding the shipping costs, otherwise it will leave room for criticism.

Driven by this profit, less than three days later, White Crane Gang, sent word that someone had seen Spider Bin at Ye Song Bridge.

Ye Song Bridge was Li Qi and Ma Wu's territory. Xu Shouming wasn't in a hurry to make a move. He first greeted Ma Wu: "Jun Yang, I want to arrest someone in Ye Song Bridge. Traffic will be suspended for two days. Could you do me a favor?"

Since Xu Shouming had put it this way, Ma Wu naturally couldn't refuse and agreed to the matter.

Xu Shouming sealed off Ye Song Bridge, neither searching nor arresting him, and then used the White Crane Gang to spread the news.

The message he spread was that Spider Bin could be spared, but the things Spider Bin had in his hands and pockets had to be obtained.

What do you mean by that?

Spider Bin knew the truth in his heart.

He is indeed in Ye Song Bridge. He has been hiding in the city since the day the traffic was blocked, and he dares not show his face.

Doesn't he dare to run away? If he forces his way into new territory, doesn't he have a chance?

Yes, but Spider Bin dared not gamble. If he made a mistake and fell into the hands of the Guanfang Hall, he was certain he would lose his life.

He wanted to keep going against the Guanfang Hall, but after receiving the information released by the Special Project Team, Spider Bin wavered.

The item in his hand refers to the famous general Zhao Xiaowan. This long spear has always been in his possession, but to this day, he has not yet learned how to use it.

The thing in his pocket refers to the entrance to the Inner State. Xu Shouming came for this matter, and Spider Bin had also heard rumors about it before.

If the Guanfang Hall comes to arrest him, Spider Bin will keep dragging it out. Blocking traffic will put a lot of pressure on the Guanfang Hall and Guanfang Hall loses control of the situation, the matter will definitely be dropped.

But the Special Project Team isn't the Guanfang Hall. They won't leave until the case is finished. This can't be left unresolved. Since Xu Shouming has come, he must give an explanation to the Outer State.

Now that we've given them the address of the famous general Zhao Xiaowan and the entrance to Inner State, wouldn't that be considered giving them an explanation?

After much deliberation, Dabo Ensi made an attempt.

This attempt was extremely risky, but Spider Bin still gave it a shot.

Taking advantage of the quiet of the night, he placed the famous general Zhao Xiaowan at the entrance of the Guanfang Hall.

The Zha Hu Long Spear was extremely powerful. As soon as Spider Bin arrived at the Guanfang Hall, Ye Song Bridge's Guanfang Envoy Zheng Siyi sensed it and rushed in with his men to investigate.

A long spear was stuck at the entrance of the Guanfang Hall, its shaft wrapped in spider silk.

Zheng Siyi quickly reported the news to Liao Zihui, Liao Zihui complained, "Why are you telling me? This isn't your task. Go tell Special Envoy Xu!"

Xu Shouming was overjoyed to hear the news.

Hou Haitao, the deputy special envoy under his command, suggested. "The famous general Zhao Xiaowan is the spiritual totem of Pro State. This spear has sealed her soul. It should be sent to Yuezhou immediately for a comprehensive study."

Xu Shouming sighed and said, "Xia Shumin died in Pro State. What lessons have you learned from this?"

Hou Haitao thought for a moment, "The biggest lesson I've learned is that you can't overestimate your abilities. His foundation..."

"I shouldn't have provoked Li Qi."

Xu Shouming nodded. "You're right, is there anything else?"

Hou Haitao thought for a moment and then said, "In Pro State, when commanding operations, don't rush too far forward. It won't be of any use and will only cause trouble for your men. You might even lose your life."

Xu Shouming laughed and said, "With Xia Shumin's limited abilities, charging forward would be suicidal. You're not wrong about that. Anything else?"

Hou Haitao shook his head; he couldn't think of anything else.

Xu Shouming said, "There's another crucial lesson: don't rush to do the things Liao Zihui avoids."

Obtaining the Mystic Life Crimson Lotus was purely a matter of luck, but sending Mystic Life Crimson Lotus away required skill, and not just any skill. Liao Zihui was certain he didn't possess that skill, so he suddenly fell ill and avoided the mission.

Even Liao Zihui wouldn't dare to do it, but Xia Shumin insists on doing it. Do you think he has any chance of succeeding?

Hou Haitao thought for a moment, "Special Envoy, are you going to hand Zhao Xiaowan over to Liao Zihui?"

Xu Shouming said seriously, "Don't be hasty in your speech, speak slowly. It's not necessarily Zhao Xiaowan."

Hou Haitao said, "That spear was so imposing—"

"Does having power automatically make you Zhao Xiaowan? Did you hear it speak, or did you see it kill someone?"

Hou Haitao thought for a moment and said, "Our equipment here is still limited. We need to send it to Outer State for testing before we can get the results."

Xu Shouming sighed and said, "The premise is that you really have the ability to deliver it to Yuezhou. This spear may not be of much use, but it does have quite a reputation. If we lose it while it's in our hands, then it will truly become Zhao Xiaowan's..."

Our sin is truly grave.

If Liao Zihui can get him to Yuezhou, the credit will still go to us; at most, Liao Zihui will get a share.

Why not?

Hou Haitao suddenly realized what was going on, and he knew what to do next.

The long gun was still in the Guanfang Hall. Zheng Siyi used the same trick again, preparing the handover documents and even taking photos and videos, just waiting for Xu Shouming to take the things away.

But Xu Shouming refused to accept the money, and always sent Hou Haitao to deal with Zheng Siyi.

Left with no other option, Zheng Siyi could only contact Liao Zihui.

Liao Zihui had no choice but to ask Zheng Siyi to keep a close eye on him for the time being.

Zhao Xiaowan has received the three tasks and completed one of them.

Special Project Team Envoy Xu Shouming ordered the restoration of traffic on Ye Song Bridge, but stressed the need for strict checks on pedestrians.

Deputy Special Envoy Hou Haitao felt the matter was being rushed. "Restoring traffic so quickly, isn't that blatantly letting Spider Bin go?"

Xu Shouming laughed and said, "We're going to let him go, but not so obviously. Ye Song Bridge is Li Qi's territory. Li Qi is Balance Person, and also a notoriously ruthless person in Pro State. It's always better to be cautious when doing things here. We've already got Zhao Xiaowan, so that's a gain. Restoring traffic as soon as possible is to tell Li Qi that we don't intend to offend him. If Spider Bin is a sensible person, he'll definitely send us the entrance to Inner State Zhou. Once we find the entrance to Inner State, we won't check him anymore and will just let him pass. That will be the end of Ye Song Bridge's matter."

Hou Haitao blinked and said, "Special Envoy, are we not going to arrest Spider Bin?"

"Why arrest him? Is he that important? We've already taken everything we were entitled to. Why force him to do something desperate? Do you know what the consequences are if you push a Pro State to the limit?"

We've been given three tasks. If we complete them all, it won't really demonstrate the difficulty of the tasks.

Having accomplished two crucial tasks and abandoned one, it proves that we conducted thorough research and made difficult choices, which truly demonstrates the significance of this mission!

Hou Haitao looked at Xu Shouming and felt that he was a bit of a stranger.

He had worked for Xu Shouming in Outer State for more than ten years and had never seen Xu Shouming put so much thought into it. Pro State was different. Only when he got there was Xu Shouming willing to show his true skills.

Xu Shouming's prediction was correct. The day after Ye Song Bridge's traffic was restored, the Ye Song Bridge Guanfang Hall received an anonymous letter containing a map of a Soda Kiln, with the location of a factory marked on the map.

Xu Shouming immediately ordered the lifting of the strict checks on passersby, and Ye Song Bridge restored the original order.

He handed the contract for reduced freight rates to Bai Wuchuan as a token of his gratitude. He also treated Ma Wu to a meal to express his apologies for the inconvenience caused to Ye Song Bridge and even offered to compensate for the business losses.

Ma Wu naturally wouldn't bother with such trivial matters. Xu Shouming handled everything properly and left Ye Song Bridge peacefully, leading his men to the Soda Kiln without causing much trouble, and even leaving a long gun for the Guanfang Hall.

Guanfang Hall, Liao Zihui tapped the table and hummed a few lines of a tune. This time, he had met his match.

Guanfang Hall, Green Water Bow picked up a newspaper, read it twice, and seemed to know where the enemy was.

Upon arriving at the Boundless Hospital, Green Water Bow asked Cui Tike, "Have you been to Black Stone Slope?"

Cui Tike thought for a moment, "I have been there. The most recent time was three months ago when I opened a clinic there."

Do you know the newspaper "Ye Lai Xiang"?

"Yes, I know. Their newspapers and magazines are very good. I buy every issue."

Green Water Bow then asked, "Do you know whose business the Tuberose Newspaper Office is?"

Cui Tike answered truthfully, "Their boss's surname is Night, which is not a very common surname."

Green Water Bow took a handful of cold rice from his Beggar Bowl, chewed it, and said, "I found He Jiaqing at Black Stone Slope. He Jiaqing ran into the Tuberose Newspaper Office. I could have caught him, but the Local Earth God of Black Stone Slope came. Do you know the Local Earth God of Black Stone Slope?"

Cui Tike shook his head.

Green Flower took out half a fish from the bowl and nibbled on the fish meat. "The Local Earth God of Black Stone Slope is called Tang Shijiang. In Pro State, if you count all the Local Earth God, he is the only one who can really catch my eye."

Cui Tike said, "Such a powerful Local Earth God is taking the initiative to protect He Jiaqing, which proves that they have formed an alliance."

Green Flower shook her head. "I don't think Tang Shijiang is protecting He Jiaqing, he's protecting the Tuberose Newspaper Office." Cui Tike didn't quite understand. "Local Earth God protecting a newspaper?"

Green Flower spat out the fish bone and laughed, "You don't understand, do you? I don't understand either. A special envoy named Xu from Outer State, who is said to be on equal footing with Liao Zihui, actually invited Ma Junyang to dinner. Can you figure this out?"

After Cui Tike shook his head and said, "Is Ma Junyang's status really that high?"

"Ma Junyang doesn't have it, but someone else does. This person is unfathomable. I have some grudges against this person. If he is secretly protecting He Jiaqing, then this matter will be difficult to handle."

Cui Tike knew who Green Flower was referring to; the person he was talking about was Li Qi.

Green Flower shook the bowl, which had been full of food, and it was now empty. "Find out Night Boss's identity and tell me immediately."

Cui Tike didn't want to reveal Li Qi's name, but the matter couldn't be kept secret any longer.

Soda Kiln, Abandoned Factory.

Shi Gongxing dared not stay in the workshop, so he ran outside the factory and hid in a warehouse.

He knew that there was more than just the crucian carp bones in the factory's pool; there was another person inside.

Hou Haitao, the deputy commissioner of the Special Project Team, led more than fifty people straight to the end of the workshop.

He's here today to scout ahead. If he does find the entrance to Inner State in the workshop, he'll immediately report to Xu Shouming, and their mission in Pro State will be considered a complete success.

Three subordinates put on diving suits, carried oxygen tanks, and jumped into the pool. After diving for a while, they saw the huge carp skeleton.

One diver was quite surprised and took two photos with his camera, while another diver took out a video camera and filmed around the skeleton.

Another diver was trying to communicate with the skeleton, gently stroking it as if he were stroking a shark in the sea. This can calm some large marine creatures and is a common way to express goodwill.

The crucian carp skeleton remained still in the water, like a well-behaved pet, allowing the diver to stroke it.

Having obtained enough information, the three divers immediately surfaced and returned to shore.

They reported their observations, and Hou Haitao was very satisfied with the results.

"Just complete the task and don't do anything unnecessary." Hou Haitao strictly followed Xu Shouming's orders and prepared to leave the workshop immediately.

Whoosh~

The water churned, and a woman's voice rose from underwater. "Who are you?"

Everyone was very surprised, especially the three divers, who did not expect that the carp skeleton could talk.

Hou Haitao was quick-witted and responded promptly, "We are people from outside Pro State. We came here with goodwill and friendship."

Whoosh~

Waves churned on the surface of the pool again, and the huge skeleton of a crucian carp slowly rose from the bottom to the surface.

The divers said they saw a moving fish skeleton, Hou Haitao couldn't imagine what that must have looked like.

Now he saw it: the clean fish skeleton had no flesh or blood on it, yet it was still swaying back and forth on the surface of the water.

Hou Haitao didn't know how to describe it; to be honest, he was quite scared.

Xu Shouming had told him that the people of Inner State had a very distinctive appearance, and he shouldn't offend them because of that.

If you don't want to offend anyone, the best option is to offer praise.

Hou Haitao came up with a phrase: "It's spectacular!"

Is this word appropriate? This is the only word Hou Haitao can think of right now. He'll consider the wording later. Today, he'll just give a brief greeting; other matters will be handled by the special envoy.

"You think it's spectacular?" the woman's voice rang out again. "Is this how you express goodwill?"

Even if the wording was inappropriate, the other party didn't need to get so angry. Hou Haitao had other misunderstandings. He looked at the three divers.

One of the divers made a stroking gesture, indicating that they had touched the skeleton underwater.

Hou Haitao quickly explained, "Our methods may be different from your customs, but we sincerely want to convey goodwill. Every physical contact is a way for us to convey—..."

Thump!

Hou Haitao slipped and fell to the ground.

The ground, which was originally covered in dust, was now covered with a layer of slippery slime for some reason.

Two of his subordinates tried to help Hou Haitao up, but they both fell to the ground after taking only one step.

All fifty-plus subordinates fell down. They struggled desperately, but kept slipping and none of them could get up.

Hou Haitao shouted at the fish skeleton, "We mean no harm, please believe us!"

The fish skeleton was still swaying, and ripples rose again on the surface of the pool.

Two long snakes, swaying their bodies, slowly reappeared from the water.

Is this really a snake?

Why can't I see the scales and the snake's head?

No, this isn't a snake; these are two tentacles.

Behind the tentacles, Hou Haitao saw a huge snail shell.

Hou Haitao turned around and said, "Quickly, prepare the Steam Machine Gun!"

His response was correct, but none of his men could stand up, not even the two fifth-floor wanderers (Travel Cultivator).

They couldn't even stand up.

His men stumbled and crawled to the machine gun, the heavy boiler and gun barrel sliding incessantly in the workshop.

They couldn't hold the machine gun in place, let alone ignite it to create High-Pressure Steam.

A giant snail crawled out of the pool, looked at the high-pressure machine gun in the distance, and asked Hou Haitao, "Is this also your way of showing goodwill?"

Hou Haitao then realized that the woman who had spoken earlier was not the carp skeleton, but the Snail Girl.

The snail wriggled towards Hou Haitao: "Today, I'll show you my goodwill too."

Hou Haitao struggled to crawl through the slime.

The Snail Girl opened her enormous mouth, revealing layers upon layers of teeth.

The following morning, Xu Shouming arrived at the official headquarters and met directly with Liao Zihui.

Without any pleasantries or probing, Xu Shouming said directly, "Old Liao, you have to help me."

Liao Zihui forced a smile, "Envoy Xu, what do you mean by that? You didn't arrest the people from Inner State and ask me to send them to Yuezhou for you, did you?"

Xu Shouming took out a stack of photos and handed them to Liao Zihui: "I've asked Hou Haitao to go to the entrance of Inner State to scout out the situation."

He took more than fifty people with him, and they didn't return for a day and a night.

Then, when I sent people to scout the area near the entrance again, they saw this scene in the abandoned factory.

On the ceiling of the workshop, rows of skeletons hung, each one meticulously cleaned, leaving no trace of flesh or blood.

Liao Zihui stared blankly for a long time before asking, "Was this made by someone from Inner State?"

Xu Shouming said, "I can't be sure. I've lost more than fifty men. I can't test you any further, Lao Liao. You have to help me."

Liao Zihui shook his head. "I can't help you. Report to your superiors as soon as possible and wait for them to send in Balance Person."

PS: How can Balance Person solve this problem?
