Rebirth of the God Hunter Legend

Chapter 96 got rid of them
In today's society, with the localized coverage of holographic simulation technology, most individual businesses have shifted to the holographic field, while medium and large-sized businesses have adopted dual-channel operations; only industries such as catering, health, manufacturing, and education remain physical entities and are becoming increasingly prosperous, becoming essential elements of society.

Longyue Restaurant is located on a bustling section of Molan Street in Dongcheng District. It has a prominent restaurant sign on the map and is quite popular.

Inside the car, Yi Han frowned, glancing at the in-car timer while accelerating to the maximum safe speed.

Ling Chuan sat silently in the back row. He wondered what kind of good-tempered boss would allow an employee to be absent ten times before firing them. Was it his own daughter? The answer was obviously no, which could only mean one thing: there was a problem with the accumulated absences, and it was a problem specifically targeting Lin Keke.

Unfortunately, although he possessed memories of the next ten years, his knowledge of the catering industry was limited. He only knew the name of Longyue Restaurant and that it was a subsidiary project of the Longyue Group in W City. He couldn't find any other useful information, so it seemed he would have to follow the normal procedures this time.

"arrive!"

Fifteen minutes later, the three got out of the car. Looking at the magnificent hotels and endless stream of tourists in Dunhuang, they felt a little impatient and unconsciously quickened their pace.

As the receptionist saw the three men enter, she was about to approach them when a woman who appeared to be a supervisor flashed her eyes, blocked the two receptionists, and greeted them proactively, "Sir, do you have an appointment?"

"No, we're not eating," Yi Han said.

"Is that for checking in? If so, you need to go to the left..."

"No need, we'll find someone."

Before the supervisor could finish speaking, Yi Han cut to the chase and stated his purpose.

Guests passing by the entrance turned their heads in turn, and when they saw the three people's faces clearly, their expressions changed from indifference to astonishment, and many even began to suspect something.

The supervisor looked embarrassed and was about to speak when she saw the security guards at the door casting questioning glances at her. The supervisor shook her head, indicating not to come closer, and continued, "Sir, this is working hours. If you are looking for someone..."

"Lin Keke, is she here?"

The supervisor's expression changed, and he glanced awkwardly at the reception desk where one person was missing. He opened his mouth to speak, but before he could, a short-haired woman walked out from the corridor. Seeing Yi Han and the other two, she gave a professional smile, greeted Yi Han, and then turned to the supervisor, saying in a deep voice, "What's going on?"

Just by listening to the voice, the three of them recognized the person as "Sister Dong" from the phone.

The supervisor glanced at Yi Han almost imperceptibly and replied, "He's here to see Lin Keke."

This expression and this response clearly told them that Lin Keke was here. However, when the short-haired woman heard Lin Keke's name, her face suddenly turned cold. Looking at the three of them, she was filled with disgust, especially towards Ling Feixue, where she showed undisguised loathing.

However, she was quite shrewd. When responding to the three of them, she put on a professional smile again and said helplessly, "I'm sorry, we don't have that person here. If you have nothing else to do, please don't make things difficult for us. It's a busy time right now, and we can't afford to delay."

Ling Feixue was already anxious, and she wasn't about to back down after hearing this answer. "Your surname is Dong, right? Don't deny it. I've heard your voice before, just a dozen minutes ago. Where is Lin Keke?"

Judging from Lin Keke's hanging up the phone and her questioning of Dong's situation, she definitely wouldn't leave. Therefore, Ling Feixue was certain that Lin Keke was still in the restaurant, or perhaps in one of the leaders' offices.

The short-haired woman, referred to as Sister Dong, clicked her tongue and said impatiently, "No means no, don't worry..."

"Dong Shujie, right?"

Yi Han only uttered the word "security guard," glanced at her name tag, and called her by her full name, saying calmly, "While I still have patience, I'll give you one more chance. Where is Lin Keke?"

It must be said that Yi Han exuded an unprecedented aura at this moment. Even Ling Chuan couldn't help but stare intently at his back, feeling its imposing grandeur. Dong Shujie was stunned on the spot, speechless.

The supervisor wasn't surprised; instead, the determination in his eyes intensified. He took the initiative and said, "It's in the general manager's office. Turn right at the entrance on the third floor. It's the last room in the corridor. Be quick."

Yi Han gave the supervisor a deep look. "Thank you."

After saying that, Yi Han strode towards the third floor, with Ling Feixue and Ling Chuan following closely behind. When the supervisor uttered the words "Hurry up," they knew that things were probably not going to be simple.

Watching the three disappear at the end of the stairs, Dong Shujie turned back and pointed at the supervisor, her face cold, and said, "Zhang Ting, are you crazy? Don't you want to be a supervisor anymore? Just wait, the day those three leave, that's when you'll be kicked out of Longyue!"

After saying that, Dong Shujie left on the spot, leaving Zhang Ting to apologize to the guests.

"Sister Ting, you're so foolish. Every employee at Longyue knows how Manager Liu feels about Lin Keke, and you still went and walked right into the line of fire." The receptionist next to her was heartbroken.

“That’s right,” another receptionist added. “If you get fired, no one will speak up for us anymore.”

Zhang Ting smiled gently, "Silly girl, that's why I can't just watch it happen. Besides, it's not certain who will be the one to leave."

At this point, Zhang Ting revealed a meaningful smile.

……

On the third floor, at the end of the corridor, Ling Chuan and his two companions stopped in front of the general manager's office. Whether it was because they were confident that no one would dare to come up, or because the people who had just entered and exited were in such a hurry, the door was not closed properly. Just as Yi Han was about to push the door open and step in, a cold, impatient middle-aged male voice came out.

"Have you thought about it?"

"..."

“Lin Keke, don’t be ungrateful. I’ve looked into your family situation. You have a disabled father and an older sister who lost her guaranteed admission spot due to injury. You were barely able to earn some living expenses to supplement the family income with your job at Sanctuary III, but you lost that because of the Divine Revelation. Now you’re the only one in the family with a decent job. If I don’t want you here either…”

"I...can...change jobs." Lin Keke sobbed, making her already weak confidence seem even more fragile.

"is it?"

The middle-aged man's voice was full of sarcasm as he continued, "Actually, you understand that since you haven't even finished your studies, no one wants you for high-end positions, and low-end positions don't meet your needs. So when you heard you were being fired, you didn't leave in anger, but came to beg me; because you know that once you leave, the debt your family is carrying will collapse, and it will break your father's spine."

"..."

“What’s wrong with me? I have money, a car, a house, connections, and power. As long as you’re with me, I’ll pay off your father’s debts, I’ll arrange your sister’s job, I can give you anything you want, and even if you want marriage, I can marry you properly and let the children call you mother.”

"This is the truth, and it's the best way for you to survive, Lin Keke. Do you know why that... Yun Chuan, that's the name, right? Yun Chuan Studio, yes, do you know why they initially agreed to help you get an advance on the money for the Divine Revelation equipment, but then suddenly changed their minds and even kicked you out of the studio?"

"That's right, because of me, because I have money, 500,000, just 500,000 made them abandon you; what does that mean? It means that you are not even worth 500,000 in their hearts."

“I’m different. You’re priceless to me. So do you understand? Only I can accept you because I will treat everyone who dares to accept you the same way I treated Yun Chuan Studio.”

"you!"

"Don't be angry, this isn't a threat, it's just a suggestion, a suggestion to help you make the best decision. I'll give you ten more seconds to think about it..."

"no need!"

With a whoosh, the door was pushed open, and a burly, greasy middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses came into view.

Manager Liu's expression changed drastically, and he shouted, "Who are you? Who let you in?! Security!"

"I am your ancestor!!"

"Bang!!"

Enraged, Yi Han stomped forward, raised his right leg, and with a whooshing sound, slammed it heavily into Manager Liu's abdomen and ribs.

With a loud crash, Manager Liu's round body slammed heavily onto the bookshelf behind him like a cannonball, scattering decorations all over the floor.

Ling Chuan was stunned. Manager Liu weighed at least 190 pounds, and he was just kicked away by Yi Han like that? Was this a movie scene?!
Lin Keke was also stunned. She stared blankly at the three people who had barged in, her gaze finally settling on Ling Feixue. "...Sister Xue?"

Ling Chuan snapped out of his daze and looked in the direction of the voice. He immediately understood why Manager Liu had made such an exaggerated promise. The girl in front of him truly possessed the qualities to back it up. Without exaggeration, she was a 90-point beauty. She was about twenty years old, tall and slender, with a well-proportioned figure and an ethereal beauty that transcended the mundane world. Most importantly, she had a pair of large, clear eyes that seemed to wash away all worldly cares at first glance. Even Ling Chuan had to admit that he had never seen a girl like her in his previous life. Even Tang Ling, whom he had discovered, paled in comparison. Combined with the handprint on half of her face and her red, swollen eyes, most people would find it impossible to resist protecting her.

Ling Feixue rushed over and hugged Lin Keke, wiping away her tears and comforting her, "It's okay, Keke is okay."

"Ow!!"

Just then, Manager Liu, who had been writhing on the ground for a long time, finally let out his first cry of pain.

Once he could make a sound, Manager Liu was far from being obedient. He immediately yelled, "Help! Someone's killing me!"

"Bang!!"

In just three sentences, less than a second in total, Yi Han's toe struck his stomach. Manager Liu was frozen in place, arched to the ground. Just looking at the scene was painful.

"Feixue, take Xiaochuan and Keke to the car, I'll be right there." Yi Han's voice was cold and unfamiliar.

“Yi Han.” Ling Feixue was not surprised, as if she had known from the beginning that Yi Han had this side to him.

"Xiaoxue, I can't agree to that this time."

"I know, what I mean is, include my share too." With that, to Ling Chuan's astonishment, Ling Feixue put her arm around Lin Keke and pulled him out of the office. Before leaving, she thoughtfully closed the office door behind her.

……

Ten minutes later, Manager Liu slumped against the corner, as still as a stagnant pool. Yi Han, on the other hand, leaned back on the guest sofa, calmly wiping the bloodstains from his hands.

Finally, he took out another Huawei T, turned it on, looked up the number, and dialed it.

beep……

"Hey!"

The call was answered after only half a ring.

"Young Master!" came an urgent male voice.

"Ah."

"Oh my God! You finally contacted me! Let me tell you! The old man..."

Suddenly, as if realizing something, they shut up.

"Finished?"

"It's over..."

"Then it's my turn," Yi Han said. "Do you know the Longyue Restaurant on Molan Street in the DC District of W City?"

"Dongcheng? Longyue Restaurant? What are you waiting for? Go check it out, hurry up!! Young Master, please wait a moment, this name doesn't sound familiar, it should be a small restaurant, I..."

"Ugh, this noise is giving me a headache."

"..." Silence fell.

"Hurry up..." he muttered to himself.

"I've got it!" the man exclaimed excitedly. "I know, I know! It's a small restaurant under our medium-sized subsidiary, Longyue Group. Young master, what do you want to do?"

"Well, it's nothing, it's just that there's some General Manager Liu here. I heard he's rich, has a car, a house, connections, and power. Think of a way to get rid of them."

"Huh? That's it?"

"Too small?"

"No, no, no! Young Master, what are you saying! Do it! Do it immediately! Contact the general manager of Longyue Group and tell him to wait by the phone! Young Master, um..."

"Oh right, there's a manager in the lobby on the first floor, her name is Dong Shujie. Oh no, her voice is too deep, her hair is too short, and she looks terrible."

"Understood! She'll handle it too! Young Master, I..."

"The front desk supervisor is good."

"Alright! Young Master..."

"Beep...beep...beep..."

He hung up, turned off the phone, put it in his pocket, and then silently hugged his head, rubbing it vigorously, because he remembered that Ling Chuan had been there just now!

"Oh no, oh no, oh no, I must have scared Xiaochuan just now. What should I do? Will that kid become hostile towards me? What if he doesn't want to call me brother-in-law anymore? What if he hates me? What if he keeps his distance from me? Ugh... Why was I so impulsive? I should have gotten them away first."

As he spoke, Yi Han stared at the grumbling Manager Liu, grabbed a cup and smashed it against him, saying with disgust, "What are you grumbling about? If Xiao Chuan hates me because of this, you can stay in bed for the rest of your life."

After saying this, Yi Han slammed the door and left. As he passed the front hall, he saw Zhang Ting and noticed that she gave him a respectful look. Considering her previous behavior, he figured she must have discovered something, so he gestured for her to be quiet.

Zhang Ting nodded slightly and looked away.

The other two receptionists stared wide-eyed, exclaiming, "He's so handsome! If only..."

Zhang Ting tapped the two of them and warned, "Don't talk nonsense. He's not someone we can contact. Just pretend we didn't see what happened today."

Watching Yi Han's departing figure, Zhang Ting was filled with mixed emotions. She was grateful that seven years ago she had encountered a drunken middle-aged man. While helping him sober up, she noticed a strange mark on his sleeve button. Out of curiosity, she complimented it. Unexpectedly, the man became extremely proud and, emboldened by alcohol, recounted the mark's origin, saying it was a symbol of status only those in his position could possess; his was gray, while his superiors' were blue.

The next day, she received a phone call that turned her from worrying about work the day before into becoming the front desk supervisor at Longyue Restaurant.

She later learned that the middle-aged man she met was the executive vice president of Longyue Group. He had left the hotel drunk and walked out in a daze, which happened to be the reason he ran into her on his way home late at night.

Today, he saw that mark again. Yes, it was on the man in the lead and the men and women behind him, but the color wasn't gray or blue, but gold—a translucent gold. That's why she rushed out to greet them first, and why she subtly hinted at her help after Yi Han asked her questions. Because she knew that in this restaurant, none of these three people could shake their authority.

……

Two chapters combined into one, a long chapter of 4,400 words. In the game, you carry your brother-in-law to new heights; in real life, your brother-in-law carries you to new heights.

Picking up the phone, Yi Han said calmly, "I heard that these readers not only have book coins, but also recommendation votes. Think of a way to get rid of them."
