Dream Travel

Chapter 218: Simple Folk Customs
The people following the white curtain abandoned their mission after they arrived at the hotel, which disappointed Luciela.

After checking into the room, Bai Mu inspected it, sealing up any small gaps. Because of the problem with the room, he did not accept Luciela's challenge invitation.

"I don't want to do live streaming for others."

"Just kill them all." Lucy Ella tied up her hair, displaying her alluring and seductive figure to the white curtain.

"Don't resort to killing so easily; this is a society governed by the rule of law..."

bang bang bang-

Before Bai Mu could finish speaking, a series of gunshots rang out. As soon as Bai Mu peeked out, a bullet flew over.

"What the hell!" Bai Mu, who had almost been blown in the head, pulled out a pistol and fired repeatedly in the direction from which the bullets were flying.

He can act just like an ordinary person towards ordinary people, but he doesn't tolerate those who are willing to take lives at the drop of a hat.

"Damn it!" The man, who was being suppressed by the White Curtain's firepower and could barely lift his head, cursed and immediately retaliated while he was reloading.

A burst of bullets shattered the window.

"Hehehe... It's a society governed by law." Lucy Ella laughed lightly.

Bai Mu hadn't expected the border region to be so chaotic. He was in Meilin City, a peaceful and kind place with simple and honest people.

Discarding the small pistol he had been using as a prop, Bai Mu pulled the Ling Shu out of the weapon case.

Upon seeing the sniper weapon in sniper mode, the gunman, who had been waiting for Bai Mu to appear, suddenly changed his expression and chose to evade.

The gun Bai Mu was carrying looked like it was not to be trifled with.

"Useless!" Bai Mu spat fiercely, closing the window that had been punched with many holes. Despite the commotion, the hotel owner hadn't come up to cause trouble.

With the Imperial Arms on his head, Shirobe secretly observed the surrounding situation. The gunfire outside had not stopped; in fact, it had become more intense as time went on.

The reason seems to be that some illegal activity was discovered, and the person who was discovered was unwilling to be arrested, so they began to resist fiercely. As the fight went on, backup personnel appeared.

The liaison officers and law enforcement officers from Meilin City started fighting again, and the gun battle became increasingly intense.

The local people are simple and honest, and the law enforcement officers are even more so.

Through the observer's perspective, the white screen showed a rocket streaking across the night sky, leaving a bright trail.

The intense gunfight ended after the explosion.

Apart from the escaped prisoners, all those who resisted were killed.

Not long after, there was a knock on the white curtain's door, and the person knocking seemed very rude.

"Open the door now, or I'll kick it down... Um, don't get agitated, it's just a simple access record." Seeing the large sword in Bai Mu's hand, the person banging on the door immediately changed his tune.

“I’m someone who was implicated, and this is my identification.” Bai Mu emphasized this point. He didn’t know if he was well-known in Meilin City, but considering the overly simple and honest folk customs here, he felt that he should demonstrate his power.

"Hmm? From the processing bureau, huh? It's alright." After glancing at the authorization certificate that Bai Mu had produced, the law enforcement officer who had come over simply chose to leave.

Although it was just an authorization certificate, he knew it was harder to obtain than a regular document. Even though it was an authorization certificate from the Rota City processing bureau, it could be used anywhere in the country as an ID card.

After leaving, the law enforcement officer couldn't help but grumble under his breath and went straight to the person who had delivered the message to him.

The other party told him that Bai Mu was someone with a high bounty, but did not reveal the guy's identity!

People who can obtain that kind of authorization certificate must have incredibly strong connections, and their personal abilities are definitely not ordinary.

In the middle of the night, Bai Mu went to the tavern. According to the information provided by Lily, he could also go to the tavern to find people at certain times.

Even at this moment, the tavern remained lively, the bustling atmosphere seemingly unaffected by the recent gunfight.

The people here are talking loudly about all sorts of illegal things.

The tavern proprietress was still alluring and fiery. Bai Mu walked over and placed a coin on the table. "Come with me." After glancing at the coin on the table, the proprietress casually left the counter.

In a small room, the tavern proprietress gently stroked the coin: "Since Lily sent you, I won't do anything unnecessary. My name is Vibel. Whose information do you want?"

“Adrias.” Bai Mu took out the bounty poster that Lily had given him.

Vibel glanced at the bounty poster, nodded, took out a map, and pulled a pen from her skirt to draw a circle on it.

"She's been around here lately, go find her yourself."

The other party's decisiveness surprised Bai Mu; the process was far too simple.

"What, you still want to stay here for another night?" Vibel looked at the white curtain, her tone becoming more seductive: "But not now, you have to complete the bounty."

"Is this considered an extra reward?"

"No, it's just my hobby."

White Curtain left the small house and found Lucy Ella drinking. While she was talking to Vibel, the woman had already marked out a spot in the crowded tavern.

There were still some traces of chaos around, which most likely meant that someone had caused trouble for her when he left, and Luciela had beaten him up.

"Let's go." Bai Mu reached out and pulled Lucyella away, causing the people in the tavern to gasp.

They didn't underestimate Bai Mu; after all, the young man was strong, but the woman seemed even stronger.

Someone tried to harass her, but the woman slapped him to the ground and fell asleep immediately.

Meilin City is located in a border area, where there are many opportunities but also a lot of chaos. Although there are many madmen, mindless madmen don't last long.

So after Lucyella knocked down a few fools, no one dared to mess with her anymore.

"Let me finish this drink." Lucyella didn't really want to leave.

"I'll let you drink your fill when we get back. Besides, it's a waste for you to drink this, isn't it?" Bai Mu was very doubtful whether Lucy Ella would get drunk.

The woman gave him a disapproving look: "I'm a little drunk right now."

"How could you be drunk when you're dead? What's the principle behind that?"

Lucyella couldn't help but glare at Bai Mu and throw away the wine bottle in her hand.

The modern world is wonderful! Not only are there more beautiful clothes, but even things like alcohol are far superior to what she used to have on her little island.

"You've obtained intelligence?"

"Well, come with me."

White Curtain took out a map. Although the proprietress, Vibel, had only casually drawn a circle on it, the circle was based on Coal Forest City as a reference.

Even people who aren't very good at reading maps can understand it.

"Just follow the directions marked on the map," Luciela glanced at the information on the map and couldn't help but ask, "Just this one circle, and 32% of your bounty is going to be taken away?"

"As long as you can find your goal, then this circle is worthwhile."

Bai Mu could accept the commission. Without intelligence agents, how would he find such a target? Who would have thought that such a target was in a border region thousands of kilometers away?

Even if he knew, the border area is a huge circle. How long would it take him to search slowly?
Compared to situations where a normal search would be impossible, it's quite convenient to have someone specifically providing intelligence.

After all, compared to not making any money, that small commission isn't a big problem. Besides, Bai Mu's main goal isn't the bounty, but the person listed on the bounty.

I consider that small commission as money spent to buy new spiritual fragments.
