Task Complete
Old Wang clearly seems fearless; if we really offend him to death, it's us gunmen who will suffer.
The above only mentioned taking him "through the streets" as a warning to others; the other unnecessary actions were meaningless.
Seeing his companion's actions, the man gave a cold snort and then gave up.
He gave up, but someone else didn't. The Blue Fatty kept whispering in Old Wang's ear, "How does it feel to get caught for making a mistake?"
"Sometimes, what we see and hear may not be true. Don't be too hasty in your judgments, Doraemon!" Old Wang said cautiously.
"Hmph! That's not my name!"
After snorting, the Blue Fatty fell silent again.
Old Wang had already learned the basics of what had happened from Ling, and he needed to figure out how to proceed with the rest of the story.
Although the group walked, it only took them about 20 minutes to reach the so-called mansion of Lord Mark.
This person's yard is quite large; he must be quite powerful.
Upon entering the mansion, the Security Officer approached and asked, "Mr. Mark, is this the bottle you lost?"
"This bottle is indeed the same as mine, but mine is at home! I just saw it!" Mark said, puzzled, after seeing the bottle.
"Impossible!"
It was Boss Chi spoke, because he didn't believe he could be mistaken.
"I'm sorry..." He regretted saying it as soon as it left his mouth and immediately apologized to Wang Qianduo.
"Did you hear that, Mr. Mark? Bring that bottle over to Boss Chi for authentication. Don't let someone switch it out with something else!" said the Security Officer who had been shoving Wang Qianduo.
"You're right, I'll have someone go get it right away!"
"It really is exactly the same! I'm sorry, sir, it was my mistake!"
After taking the bottle out, Boss Chi examined it carefully for a while, and then immediately apologized to Wang Qianduo.
The two bottles were almost identical; he had indeed misjudged them, making the mistake of subjective assumption based on "I thought."
"Are you sure you don't want to take another look?" the young Security Officer asked again.
"No need to look anymore, they really are the same!"
"How could there be two identical items in the world? I don't believe it."
Wait, I'll apply for Rarity Detection.
The other Security Officer silently shook their heads at the young Security Officer, who was becoming increasingly persistent.
Their mission of parading Wang Qianduo through the streets was over. Since Mark hadn't lost anything, they should have retreated.
He might succeed in sending Wang Qianduo to Prison and attract the attention of higher authorities, but the risk of failure would be far outweighed by the potential gains.
He's still too eager to show off!
The Rarity Detection began quickly. The broken bottle was still a Fine-Grade item, no problem. But the bottle that Old Wang gave to the woman was the problem.
Because it's not something Fine-Grade at all, but something Legendary.
Seeing this, everyone knew that the young Security Officer had lost; how could Mark, the Fine-Grade and legendary Legendary, possibly admit to having lost something?
This Legendary treasure is his family heirloom; even if the Heavenly King himself came, it would still be his.
Blue Fatty, observing the Legacy Pendant that Old Wang had been playing with, filled with gratitude energy, guessed its origins.
"So you're a really good person after all!"
"Ahem! You flatter me!"
Getting friend-zoned out of nowhere is unbelievable, but even a good person should still have their temper.
One of the Security Officer tried to unlock Wang Qianduo's Handcuffs, but Old Wang dodged him.
"Don't move! I still need to go to the City Lord's place like this!" Old Wang stopped them from continuing to unlock his Handcuffs.
Then he swaggered towards the City Lord of Fairy City, and the Security Officer could only anxiously follow.
As a Major, it wouldn't be difficult for Old Wang to meet the mayor, since Major is actually quite high-ranking.
The City Lord of Fairy City is only Major in the military.
Moreover, he clearly remembered Wang Qianduo, after all, this person was closely related to several major events in Fairy City.
"What is this?"
His heart skipped a beat when he saw the Handcuffs on Wang Qianduo's hands.
"This is the second time you've treated me like this. I want to know why. Explain!" Wang Qianduo said arrogantly.
The first time was actually after he wiped out the Black Shark Pirates, when Wang Qianduo took the initiative to summon his Mecha to hitch a ride.
The one who was wrong that time was actually Old Wang, but others didn't know that; they only thought he summoned the Mecha to kill the Black Shark Pirates.
At the same time, they actually gave Old Wang a car as compensation, but the Santana's collectible value was greater than its practical value and it couldn't be sold, which was actually a kind of perfunctory gesture.
At that time, Old Wang was a nobody and had no right to say anything, but today they gave him another chance.
"What's going on?" the City Lord asked one of the Security Officer who had been following Wang Qianduo. He didn't ask the young man, as he seemed not to be conspicuous enough.
"Sir, this person has close ties with Dark Night. Lord Zhang instructed us to make an example of him to deter other officials who have close ties with Dark Night, so..." the man reported quietly to him.
"So you paraded him through the streets! You're making an example of him without considering his status as a mere chicken?"
Is this some kind of "killing the chicken to scare the monkey"? This is killing the dragon to scare the monkey! You guys are really going to be extravagant!
After learning the whole story, the City Lord was so anxious that he started swearing.
"Isn't it because the higher-ups have already started targeting General Huang? And he has connections with both General Huang and Dark Night, so, sir..."
"He dares to even touch General Huang? Hah, he's really courting death!"
After hearing the man's explanation, the City Lord knew that this matter could not be resolved so easily.
He won't take the blame for this; he has to clear himself of the blame.
Moreover, those people have become increasingly arrogant because of the support from those above them, so this is a good opportunity to teach them a lesson.
"Hurry up and open it! What are you all doing? Get out of the way, let me do it!"
We were wrong this time, and we have unjustly insulted your innocence. How do you think we should make amends?
The City Lord asked Old Wang, expressing his immediate desire to get rid of this plague as soon as possible.
"What I want is very simple: an apology! You guys were willing to take me for a walk around the city, right? Then just apologize in front of the whole city!" Wang Qianduo said.
"Well... sir, I've just received a new batch of cars. Would you mind if I...?"
"Of course, the City Lord doesn't need to apologize. After all, ignorance is no excuse, and it really has nothing to do with you!"
Upon hearing the City Lord's words, Old Wang's eyes immediately lit up. The Santana was too restrictive; he really needed a new car.
"Fine! I'll have the Security Chief apologize to you right away, and have it broadcast throughout the city!"
The deal between the two was simple and straightforward; only the person who orchestrated the bluff and the team that arrested him were unlucky.
The person who caused this trouble has basically finished his career. Now that he's in trouble, how could he possibly let these people go, especially that young Security Officer?
The suppression he will face next is pretty much predictable. There's a price to pay for causing trouble. If you succeed, you might rise to great heights, but you also have to bear the risk of failure.
While the video of the man behind the Security Officer apologizing to Old Wang was playing throughout the city, Old Wang had already driven a brand-new, Rare-grade flying car out of the city and arrived in a deserted area.
He was about to deal with the sealing issue; another benefit awaited him shortly!
"What should I do?" Old Wang asked Blue Fatty.
"Just throw the pendant in the vase!" said the Blue Fatty.
"Is that so?" Old Wang placed the pendant into the repaired bottle, and the bottle immediately began to shake violently.
After a gust of black wind, a soul with a bull's head emerged from the bottle and began to roar at Old Wang and Blue Fatty.
Just as he was about to make a move, several Chain extended from the bottle, binding him there, and then dragged him into the bottle.
But...
"Why do I feel like these Chain are a bit too thin for his size? Won't there be any problems?" Old Wang said, looking at the few "chains" that were as thin as his little finger.
"This is a backup plan left by that lord, of course there won't be any problems!" the Blue Fatty said confidently.
But the irony struck swiftly; the moment he finished speaking, a chain snapped.
The two. "..."
"It's all over! The seal has weakened because it's been too long! I don't have any more Light Element treasures left, what should I do? What should I do?"
Blue Fatty was getting anxious. If it broke the seal, he would be the first to suffer, since Doraemon had Taunt him quite a bit over the years.
The minotaur was already glaring at him with a menacing look.
"Give!"
Just as the two souls were looking at each other, Wang Qianduo took out a Legendary gem with the attribute of the Light Element and handed it to the Blue Fatty.
The two souls were momentarily stunned, then the Blue Fatty took the stone and arrogantly said to the Evil Spirit:
"Haha! Let's see if you'll live or die this time!"
After speaking, the Elemental Gem unleashed their energy, the sealing power surged, and the Evil Spirit was instantly strangled by the Chain that had suddenly become much thicker.
"Thank you. Now that he has been completely annihilated, my mission is complete. I must go find my master."
Please accept this. I don't know if you'll ever need it, but it's the only valuable thing I have.
After the Evil Spirit was destroyed, the Blue Fatty handed Old Wang a stone and said to Old Wang.
After saying that, he vanished right in front of Wang Qianduo, moving incredibly fast without any hesitation.
And the stone he left behind is quite a valuable item.
With just this one item, Old Wang's entire effort in the mission was worthwhile, and he actually made a huge profit.
This matter is actually quite complicated from beginning to end, because it involves several large tasks intertwined.
First, there should be that Normal quest; it should be a prerequisite quest for the Evil Spirit appearing in the world.
The correct procedure for that task should be for the Player to follow the system's prompts, repair the porcelain, and then obtain the pendant.
Then Mark's family will be harmed by Evil Spirit, and Doraemon comes to him to fight the Evil Spirit.
After a difficult battle, they will be victorious and receive some rewards.
But Old Wang didn't fix it; instead, he gave the woman a new Legendary, so the mission was essentially a failure before it even began.
But because he took the porcelain bottle, he triggered a variant of the quest: The Price of Evil.
