Eating bizarre things in public upgrades my status; the Special Affairs Bureau wants me to join them

"Ha, the champion?"

"He's all talk and no action, but not much skill."

"There are still no experts right in front of you?"

"I really don't know which remote corner of the world you investigators came from to be so arrogant."

"Tsk~ There's not even a receptionist around!"

"They didn't even assign you any connection staff, and I'm afraid your own departments didn't recommend you to come. You must have had the nerve to come to Chengdu to participate in this competition, right?"

"A minor role that even my own department didn't recommend..."

"I really don't know where I got the courage to come here..."

"Championship? Ignorance is bliss!"

A scornful laugh came from behind.

Zhao Hu was immediately displeased, saying that he was capable, but that he couldn't tolerate Li Ge being a nobody.

What are you saying?

He immediately stood up, looked at the four investigators—two men and two women—wearing badges of the Rongcheng Special Bureau who walked out from behind He Li, and fearlessly retorted...

"Who said we weren't recommended?"

"We were recommended by the bureau; it's your Rongcheng investigators who were late and didn't show up."

"We haven't even talked to you yet."

"How dare you look down on us? Are you saying everyone in Chengdu is like you?"

Upon hearing this, the four men looked at him with mockery.

"Didn't come? That makes sense."

"Don't you know...?"

"Lin Fan from Shanghai is also attending this Five Cities Conference?"

"That's a Heavenly Fortune-level expert. The person who should have been receiving you has gone to pay their respects, while you... are just insignificant nobodys in the corner."

"You should be grateful we even arranged for someone to receive you. And you're complaining that our people weren't punctual?"

"If we're not punctual, you'll just have to wait longer."

"Anyway, your time isn't important."

"Don't glare at me like that!"

"Blame yourselves for being incompetent. If you could match Lin Fan's abilities..."

"Of course someone will come to greet you."

"Unfortunately... you just don't have it!"

Their words not only angered Zhao Hu and the many out-of-town investigators who hadn't yet received a receptionist, but also made He Li frown slightly, seemingly displeased.

He had initially thought that the person who was supposed to be there had encountered an emergency and was trying to be understanding.

So, they went to pay their respects to others?

You're not even taking care of important matters anymore, are you?

Is it unimportant to give them back their time?

It seems that these investigators from Rongcheng are looking down on people.

Shouldn't someone like that be given a good beating?

He Li felt it was inappropriate.

So he stood up and turned around...

Before he could say anything, the four people opposite him noticed He Li's unfriendly expression and, with cold glints in their eyes, spoke first, trying to intimidate him...

At the same time, they also wanted to intimidate others.

"Huh? Why did you stand up?"

"Enraged and humiliated, you want to resort to violence?"

"Heh~ I advise you to get to the bottom of this."

"This is Chengdu, also known as the first city of Shu Prefecture."

"You dare to fight us here? Do you want to crawl back to your lousy little place?"

"Hmph! That's laughable. These investigators, who knows where they came from, do they really think they have the same abilities as Lin Fan?"

"They even dared to lay a hand on us..."

"Not to mention the high-ranking investigators in the bureau."

"It's us. Dealing with you ignorant weaklings would be a piece of cake."

At this point, the red-haired youth who was the leader of the four looked He Li up and down and sneered, "Judging from your age, you must have just finished your college entrance exams and joined the Special Affairs Bureau, right?"

"It's normal to be a little arrogant when you're young."

"But don't even dream about winning the Five Cities Tournament."

"That's not something you can touch!"

"And..." He looked around.

"Don't blame me for not warning you, during the Five Cities Conference, you out-of-town investigators are not allowed to exercise your privileges at will. If you cause trouble by acting recklessly..."

"The bureau won't let this go easily!"

After saying that, he waved his hand and prepared to leave.

The other investigators around were angry but dared not speak out.

Since they were on someone else's turf, they were indeed hesitant to take action against the local investigators.

However, just when the other investigators thought that He Li and his team would have no choice but to admit defeat, He Li suddenly spoke in a sinister tone: "Did I give you permission to leave?"

These words were spoken to the four people who were about to leave.

Upon hearing this, they stopped in their tracks.

The red-haired man frowned and turned around, and the other out-of-town investigators immediately sensed something was wrong...

"Sigh, youthful exuberance is truly admirable!"

"Why do you insist on stopping them after they've already left?"

"Don't you know that patience brings peace?"

"Tsk tsk~ He could have just pretended nothing happened, but he insisted on going in and getting beaten up. Does this kid... he can't feel comfortable unless he gets beaten up?"

"At least this is on someone else's turf."

"Regardless of whether he can win or not, he should first consider the consequences of fighting!"

"Exactly, acting recklessly without considering the consequences."

"Let's see how they handle this!"

"How will this end? Need I say more?"

"They'll definitely be carried back!"

Nobody here knows He Li.

Therefore, without knowing anything about He Li, the investigators judged from experience that He Li's limited strength meant he could never be a match for the Rongcheng investigators.

He'll only get a beating.

Of course, once a fight breaks out, both sides will inevitably bear responsibility, regardless of the outcome.

The crowd felt a sense of schadenfreude at this thought.

It mainly consists of the four people from Xiaorongcheng.

They felt that these people from Rongcheng definitely hadn't expected that there would be any hotheads who dared to attack them. Now, even if they won, they would still be punished, which would put them in a difficult position.

And that is indeed the case.

After being stopped by He Li, the red-haired man frowned and glared at the "hothead" He Li with extreme displeasure...

"Kid, you really want to die?"

"I advise you to think this through carefully, otherwise..."

Thump! Before he could finish speaking, He Li's eyes flashed with golden light, instantly releasing his spiritual power and slamming the unsuspecting red-haired youth to the ground with a dull thud.

The latter had no strength left to resist.

Everyone was stunned by this sudden turn of events.

The other three investigators from Chengdu also reacted instinctively and were about to take action.

However, it's a great pity...

BOOM!!! CRACK!!!

With a loud noise, those people didn't even have time to get into a fighting stance before they were pressed to the ground by an invisible force. The terrifying force even broke their bones, making a cracking sound.

Most horrifyingly, they were in so much pain that their faces were contorted, yet they couldn't utter a sound.

At this moment, the way they looked at He Li changed.

There was no longer any contempt or annoyance in his eyes...

There wasn't even any hatred.

Because He Li's performance was too strong, he didn't move and just glanced at them, and they were all wiped out. Such a terrifying existence made them unable to harbor any resentment.

The disparity was too great; in their eyes, the only emotions they felt at that moment were intense panic and fear...

Looking at their terrified expressions.

He Li looked down from his high position, as if looking down at ants.

"He has little skill but talks a lot of nonsense."

"You dare threaten me?"

"What kind of trash are you? You dare to challenge me?"

A cold, arrogant, and somewhat conceited voice echoed in the restaurant, but no one dared to answer.

Only Zhao Hu and the other two were particularly excited.

They're back, still as arrogant as ever!

This is the real Li Ge!

However, just as they were rejoicing, He Li's next words were even more outrageous than they had expected, leaving the already bewildered crowd even more shocked...

"A Chengdu investigator? Nothing special."

"You can't even stand a glance from me!"

"Weak! Too weak!"

He seemed like a god looking down upon the world.

"The Five Cities Tournament? It's just a game!"

"Winning the championship is just a side effect; solving the case is the real goal."

"The Dragon Worship Society... Ha, I bet you've never heard of it."

"Your Chengdu is just no good!"

"But thankfully, I'm here."

"The clues you can't find, I'll find; the cases you can't solve, I'll solve; the people you can't kill, I'll kill. In short..."

"I will handle the cases you can handle, and I will also handle the cases you cannot handle."

"In this Shu Prefecture, wherever I go, there is heaven!!!"

These words shocked everyone present.

Zhao Hu and his two companions were dumbfounded, while the four members of the Rongcheng group lying on the ground had even forgotten their pain.

What kind of logic is this...?

Crazy! Absolutely insane! Completely outrageous!

"Who...who the hell is this god?"

"Wherever I go, there is heaven???"

"How dare you say such a thing?"

"How...how dare he?"
