Pokémon: Hard work pays off, moves can be upgraded infinitely.

"Little Seven's back, so early today?"

As the two walked further in, a woman dressed daringly, wearing only a swimsuit, came into Mu Yun's view.

The woman was about 1.7 meters tall, with short hair that reached her ears. Her skin was a slightly darker brown than wheat, and her muscles were well-defined, like an African leopard, exuding sexual allure.

"Oh? Little Seven, you brought a man with you? You've finally figured things out? Why don't you let Third Sister test your character first? Don't let him be just a pretty face."

Shi Fei put her arm around Ye Mei and said with a teasing smile, while looking Mu Yun up and down.

"Alright, Third Sister, what's with all this talk about men? Don't you know I hate men the most!" Ye Mei rubbed against Shi Fei's firm skin, then leaned close to her ear and whispered, "He's here to see Eldest Sister. Is he an investigator, or someone from the capital? Go and contact Second Sister and the others quickly, in case something happens and we can't react in time."

Upon hearing this, Shi Fei's pupils contracted, but she smiled without changing her expression and said, "Alright, alright, you don't like men but you still bring them home? I think you're just saying that to hide your true feelings. Never mind, I won't keep you two occupied."

After saying that, she gave Mu Yun a bright smile before turning and leaving.

"I'm sorry, my third sister is a very enthusiastic person, so she took up a little time," Ye Mei said.

"Whatever, lead the way."

Mu Yun's expression remained calm.

She heard the two women's conversation clearly and realized that they were trying to gather people to guard against him.

This suited him perfectly, saving him the trouble of waiting for them to gather their forces if a fight broke out.

Mu Yun and Ye Mei continued walking inside.

Although it is an independent mountain village built in the mountains and has no connection with the outside world.

However, the interior layout is quite nice.

The crisscrossing natural waterways, swimming pools, pavilions, rockeries, gardens, and playful creatures create a sense of leisurely relaxation, as if one has entered a resort and is preparing for wellness.

If Mu Yun hadn't known beforehand who the owner of this place was, he would have thought he was on vacation.

"Seventh Sister!" *2

As they approached a three-story villa, two tall, muscular women with dark black tactical leg straps wrapped around their thighs caught Mu Yun's attention.

It's not because they are on average 1.8 meters tall, or because they wear revealing clothes.

Rather, it was because of their appearance that they were clearly not members of the Yanhuang Alliance.

They have extremely sculpted features, light brown hair, and pale green eyes, making them look like snow wolves from the mountains, exuding a fierce aura.

"As expected, there are Ice Luo people..."

Mu Yun thought to himself.

Patrick Star's investigation into the Black Snake Gang included a significant amount of information about the Ice Luo people.

For example, three of the seven leaders of the Black Snake Gang are Bingluo people.

Among them, the leader of the Black Snake Gang, known as "Black Rose" She Yu, although a Yanhuang person, grew up in Bingluo, so strictly speaking, she can also be considered a Bingluo person.

After entering the villa, Ye Mei continued walking, leading Mu Yun skillfully to the door of She Yu's office.

She knocked gently on the door, and soon a husky yet magnetic voice came from inside.

"Enter!"

After Ye Mei pushed open the door, a bright, spacious office with a strong Ice Luo Alliance decor came into Mu Yun's view.

Dark oak tables and cabinets, genuine leather high-backed sofas and chairs, a single marble coffee table, and a wine cabinet adorned with various wine bottles.

At first glance, it was completely different from the image of a gang leader's office that Mu Yun had imagined; instead, it had a bit of the feel of Boss Bingluo.

In the center of this office, near the glass, stood a short-haired woman with a cigar in her mouth, looking down at a tablet in her hand.

"Sister She!"

Ye Mei called out, and She Yu slowly raised her head.

It was a face full of heroic spirit, with a face shape that was somewhat softer than that of people of Yanhuang, but the features were very three-dimensional and heroic.

However, what is most striking is the hideous scar that runs from her left eyebrow peak down her nose to her right cheek.

Based on Mu Yun's understanding of the elven medical level, scars of this severity are easily treated; if they are not treated, it is most likely because they do not want to be treated.

"Sister She, he is...?"

Before Ye Mei could finish speaking, She Yu raised her hand to stop her. She held her cigar between her fingers, her sharp eyes fixed intently on Mu Yun:

"Mu Yun, this year's top scorer in the Elf Science exam, a freshman at Heijiang University, may I ask what brings you to my Black Snake Gang?"

Ye Mei was clearly taken aback upon hearing She Yu's words.

She only knew that Mu Yun was a trainee elf investigator from the capital, but she never expected that he was actually the national champion in the elf class.

The top scorer in the country!

Although she had never been to school, she lived in Heijiang City and had met students from Heijiang University, so she naturally understood how amazing it was for someone to become the top scorer.

But if the other person is so talented and comes from the capital, why would they choose to attend Heijiang University?

Are Imperial Capital University and Tsinghua University not good?

"Do you know me?"

Mu Yun hadn't expected that She Yu would know about him. After all, the martial arts tournament had a confidentiality agreement with Zhu Ziyan, so the news couldn't get out.

Besides that, he only has the title of national champion.

The title of "top scorer" sounds impressive, but in reality, it's just a competition among high school seniors. Apart from high school students and college admissions offices, most people don't really care who the top scorer is.

"A top student from Heijiang University, of course we should get to know him." She Yu put down his cigar, his voice still hoarse.

She lives a comfortable life entirely because she does thorough background checks.

Don't underestimate Heijiang University just because it's a college; its students include some who are not to be trifled with.

For safety's sake, she naturally had to conduct a background check to keep her subordinates on their toes, lest they bring her utter disaster one day.

"Miss She is indeed cautious."

Mu Yun smiled.

It's quite interesting that a gang leader conducts background checks on students.

"However, I'm not here as a student today."

As he spoke, Mu Yun flipped his wrist and threw the ID card on his chest in front of She Yu.

She Yu reacted quickly, and with Mu Yun intentionally controlling his strength, she caught the flying document with just a raised hand.

Her arm trembled slightly the moment she held the document.

"That was incredibly powerful!"

She Yu opened the document with her other hand without changing her expression.

After seeing the words "directly under the capital," a look of seriousness appeared in his deep eyes.

"My Black Snake Gang shouldn't have offended you, right?"

She Yu closed the document, squinted slightly, and began to think about some of his business dealings in recent years.

Since moving to Heijiang City with her sisters a few years ago, she hasn't done any high-risk business for many years. Even if she did before, it was mostly during her time with the Ice Luo Alliance, so it's unlikely she would have a grudge against Mu Yun.

Why did the other party come to find her in such a grand manner?

Extortion? Or an investigation into high-ranking members of the Black Snake Gang who have dealings with them?

Considering the duties of the Elf Investigator, She Yu felt that the second possibility was more likely.

As for why the other party didn't investigate secretly but did it openly?

She Yu glanced at Mu Yun, whose expression was calm, as if he didn't take the Black Snake Gang seriously.

It's normal for geniuses to be arrogant.
