Chapter 64 The True Meaning of Bounty Hunters

Larry Baya, male, 29 years old, is a Class B fugitive wanted for theft.

Skilled in disguise, he often uses this method to sneak into the mansions of the wealthy and commit theft.

The amount stolen exceeded one billion, earning him a Class B wanted status and a bounty of fifty million.

Larry Baya was dismissive of the bounty offered, as the value of the items he stole in one go was more than fifty million.

However, this time the wealthy man actually hired a contract hunter, which led to him being caught red-handed during the theft. He managed to escape with great difficulty, but the police were in hot pursuit. So he chose to go to the Sky Arena to temporarily avoid the police.

If the police can't find it after a while, they will automatically give up.

For some reason, the police don't interfere with Sky Arena, and anyone can participate in the competitions there as long as they have identification. He carried at least five different identification documents with him, so he could just pull one out at random.

Just consider it as earning some extra money.

The lower-level players are all weak anyway.

On the surface, he appeared to be an ordinary, even somewhat tired, middle-aged man, but inwardly he arrogantly scrutinized the group of people around him, whom he considered weaklings.

until--

"Larry Baya, hello there." A cold hand gripped his neck, tight and forceful, as if trying to snap him in two, like being strangled by a cold-blooded viper.

His voice was cold and deep, yet it couldn't hide his youth.

His face was filled with terror, and out of the corner of his eye, he could only catch a glimpse of a patch of snow-white skin, resembling the skin of a hand or the color of hair.

When did it appear in front of me? And when did that hand grab my neck?!

Larry Baya wore a pained expression, as if he were about to cry, wanting to say that the other person had mistaken him for someone else and that he was not Larry Baya, but the boy did not give him any room to explain.

"Come with me." With that voice, the hand that was gripping his neck forcibly pulled him toward a corner.

Just as he was about to use Nen to resist, he heard another sentence.

"If you dare to resist, I'll kill you."

His voice was cold and calm, without even a hint of murderous intent.

But that instantly dispelled his thoughts of resistance.

"Bang—" He was dragged to a corner and then pressed down hard, his head being violently kissed by the cold wall, making him feel dizzy.

Before he could recover from the dizziness, he vaguely heard a sound that seemed to come from near and far.

"I feel your bounty of fifty million seems a bit low. Can you find a way to increase your value?"

That's right, I also think my 50 million bounty is too low. I myself am still very valuable.

Only a bounty hunter would ask such a question, right?

"I'll give you more than fifty million, and you let me go, how about it?" Larry Baya said, as if admitting defeat.

"How much are you going to give me?" The hand gripping his neck seemed to loosen slightly.

"One hundred million?" Larry Baya asked tentatively.

"Two hundred million." The hand gripping his neck tightened its grip again.

"Okay, okay, I got it, I'll give it to you..." Larry Baya shouted.

"Too late. Now I want four hundred million." The voice chuckled and said casually.

Outrageous! This is outrageous! What kind of bounty hunter are you?! Why don't you just be a robber?!

Larry Baya was furious and grumbled, but he acted submissive and obedient.

"No, I only have three hundred million..." he said in a low voice, seemingly serious but not quite.

If you agree too easily, this guy will definitely raise the price again.

"Let me see, Larry Baya, the stolen amount exceeds one billion, I only want five hundred million, five hundred million to buy your life, so you can spend the rest of the money, isn't that good?" the voice spoke again.

The problem is, I only have 500 million left! Thieves need money too! Buying intelligence and items is expensive, you know!

Larry Baya was so angry that he wanted to die with this unknown guy, but he also knew that if he didn't pay the 500 million, he might not be able to leave the Sky Arena today.

"I understand, I'll transfer it to you right away. That's all I have left, this is all I have." Larry Baya said dejectedly.

Do you have any thief friends you know? How about we meet up and have a good chat?

The owner of the young voice asked again.

"...Although thieves occasionally gather together to trade and help each other out, it's all irregular, and they need to notify each other a month in advance..." Larry Baya's tone was full of fatigue, and you could tell how exhausted he was just by looking at his expression.

"I can't get anyone else to come out," he sighed.

His hands didn't stop moving; he took out his own card and the card reader he carried with him and handed them to the other person.

"The password is ******," he said, uttering the password with a look of utter despair.

With a beep, the card swipe was completed.

The money in his card is gone forever.

He has many fake identities, and the cards are naturally not in his own name; otherwise, he could have been caught simply by looking at his spending records.

It doesn't matter, as long as he's alive, he can steal even more things, and—

I'm never coming to Sky Arena again!

"Alright, you can go now."

The owner of the hand that was gripping his neck finally let go.

Larry Baya was certain that he had a ring of bruises on his neck.

His gaze fell on the two figures opposite him. The white-haired, blue-eyed boy with black markings on his face leaned casually against the wall, while the blond youth stood respectfully to the side with his head bowed.

Although I could tell from the voice that the other person was very young, I didn't expect them to be even younger than I imagined...

He's probably not even fifteen years old...

Never mind, it has nothing to do with him anyway.

"Well then, goodbye." Larry Baya turned and ran with a smile.

I hope we never see each other again!

But after he had only taken two steps, his vision began to spin.

strangeness……

Why is he looking up at the other two people from this angle?

What's that body over there? Is it his?

Oh, so my head fell off.

"I never said I didn't want your 50 million bounty. I gave you a chance to escape, but you didn't manage to." Su Wu stood calmly outside the gradually spreading pool of blood, bent down and reached out to tear off the disguise on the head, revealing the other person's original appearance. Then she took out her phone and took a picture of the head. While contacting the nearest police station, she took all the fake documents from the other person's body.

Once the police confirm the identity of the body, the reward will be deposited into his account.

"I understand the true meaning of bounty hunting now," Su Wu said thoughtfully.

Making money by taking bounties? No, no, no.

Of course, it's better to seize the prisoner's property! That's much faster money than just taking the bounty.

Bounties are unimportant to him; he simply enjoys catching criminals on behalf of justice.

Even when the police asked about the whereabouts of the stolen money, the answer was always the same: they didn't know.

Who knows where these criminals will spend the stolen money? And what does it have to do with him, a righteous bounty hunter?

"Suddenly, catching criminals doesn't seem so boring anymore." He smiled, his voice full of pleasure.

The bonus chapter featured a tiny, misty figurine of a character named "Entangled Ugly Treasure." Since it was very cheap, practically free, I bought one.
