Under One Person: I, Jiaqian Jushi, work from nine to five

“An employee of NaDuTong, ordered to investigate the recent murders of extraordinary individuals.” Zhou Fengliu glanced at the other party, then said:

"So you're the one causing trouble lately, huh? I thought you were some tough guy, but you're just a nobody. No fun."

Zhou Fengliu waved his hand, then glanced at the time.

The other party couldn't refute it after hearing that.

He was also confused.

He was originally attracted by the quality of Zhou Fengliu's internal energy. He thought that hunting Zhou Fengliu would be as easy as hunting the previous three people, so he kept an eye on Zhou Fengliu and found an opportunity.

But who would have thought it would hit a steel plate... no, it's a titanium alloy steel plate!

...

P.S.: I'm begging for everything, please, please. The humble author is online, sobbing.

Chapter 37 Entrapment!

This one big fight completely overwhelmed him, leaving him utterly disoriented.

I've really messed up today.

The man gritted his teeth and decided to find an opportunity to escape; he would absolutely not let Zhou Fengliu catch him.

While he was brainstorming how to escape, Zhou Fengliu showed no intention of catching him at all.

"Okay, it's time to leave. We can go now!"

Zhou Fengliu stretched, indicating that his work for the day could be finished. He casually flicked out a small ball of Qi, which then clung to the murderer's body before preparing to leave.

His move left the other side somewhat bewildered.

"???"

The murderer watched Zhou Fengliu's departing figure and couldn't help but ask, "You...you're not going to arrest me? You're just letting me go like this?"

"What else? I'll invite you home for dinner," Zhou Fengliu replied expressionlessly.

"No...aren't you going to investigate me?"

“Yes, the investigation is complete,” Zhou Fengliu said.

"and then?"

“Then you go home, you murderer… your brain isn’t quite right.” Zhou Fengliu shook his head, then, as if remembering something, casually snapped a photo of him.

Seeing Zhou Fengliu's figure completely disappear into the alley, the murderer was confused.

This was the first time he had ever seen someone like this... right in front of him... and then just swaggered away, letting him go.

...

"What's your name... Ji Bochang?"

Zhou Fengliu left the alley, took out his company phone, scanned the photo he had just taken, and found the person's information.

"Okay, okay... this name is really full of puns." Zhou Fengliu complained, then made another call to Xu Si.

The call was answered quickly.

"Hey, Fourth Brother, I saw the suspect. His name is Ji Bochang. I sent you the information. Did I catch him? Oh, no, he almost got me. He got away and I don't know where he went. I suggest the company issue a reward for his capture."

"Yeah, that's...too tricky."

Zhou Fengliu spoke with Xu Si for a while, and after the call ended, Zhou Fengliu said that Ji Bochang should appear on the company's intranet tomorrow.

Hmm, not bad.

He sensed the small ball of Qi he had just thrown at Ji Bochang again, and was relieved to find that he could detect its location.

I'll deal with him when I get to work tomorrow... Hopefully, this kid can catch the big fish behind him.

That's what Zhou Fengliu was thinking.

If others knew his idea, they would definitely point their fingers at him and say, "It's entrapment."

Knowing there's no reward for capturing Ji Bochang now, they released him... and waited until there was a reward to catch him again? Is this something a human would do?

Not only that.

They even use hook fishing...

Let's use Ji Bochang as bait to see if there are any other gangs behind him...

He's grown up to be incredibly cunning.

...

On the other end, Xu Si hung up the phone and stroked his chin, feeling that something was amiss.

He looked at the data and found that Ji Bochang wasn't that powerful in the company's statistics. How come he almost managed to take down Zhou Fengliu?

He thought about it and realized that this matter was definitely not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

But what is the truth?

And it is.

late at night.

In a suburban villa area.

Ji Bochang rushed here overnight to meet the man who had given him the power.

"You're back? How are you feeling?" Shen Chong, dressed in a black shirt, adjusted his glasses and looked at Ji Bochang in front of him.

“Very good...but not enough!” Ji Bochang came here to ask Shen Chong for more power.

The saying goes, "A moment of patience brings peace, but taking a step back only makes you angrier." Ji Bochang felt that Zhou Fengliu's big confrontation that night had greatly hurt him, and given his personality, he had to get revenge.

"That's simple. Just hunt down more superhumans, and you'll naturally become stronger..." Shen Chong said with a smile.

"Couldn't you be more direct?"

"What could be more direct than gaining power by killing? If you feel that the power you gain is not enough, why not try hunting down stronger Inhumans?"

"..."

"Alright." Upon hearing this, Ji Bochang knew he wouldn't gain any more power from Shen Chong, so he turned and disappeared into the night.

Watching Ji Bochang disappear into the night, Shen Chong also felt the Qi that had returned over the past few days. Although it was mixed, it could indeed increase his strength.

His ability is quite interesting; he can sign a contract with people and transfer his Qi to them.

Contractors can absorb the Qi of the dead by killing them, but this Qi will be returned to them in a certain proportion. This proportion will snowball over time, just like "usury".

The returned Qi will strengthen his power, allowing him to have surplus Qi to sign contracts with more people, thus completing a cycle.

...

Didn't I tell you to take it easy?

Just as Shen Chong was about to return to the villa, a familiar voice slowly rang out.

Shen Chong wasn't too nervous when he heard the voice. He simply adjusted his glasses and then turned to look at Xia He, who had followed behind him.

"Just having a little fun...it's no big deal. Life is all about finding some enjoyment, right? We can always go somewhere else if necessary."

"I can't control you." Xia He said, indicating that the team was too difficult to manage.

"Alright, Xia He, I heard from Lü Liang that you have a lover at the company?" Shen Chong said with a smile, changing the subject.

"That little bastard Lü Liang is spouting nonsense again. We'll settle the score with him later. In short... better safe than sorry, after all, this is Xu San and Xu Si's territory." Xia He said, turning to leave.

Shen Chong touched his nose and didn't say anything more.

...

The next day.

Zhou Fengliu arrived at the company at the usual time to clock in. He first checked Ji Bochang's task bonus on the company intranet, and when he found that it was only 1,000 yuan, he raised an eyebrow slightly, obviously not expecting it to be so little.

Killed three superhumans... and that's all?

That's it.

Something is better than nothing.

Zhou Fengliu changed into his work clothes, picked up his black backpack, briefly sensed the Qi clumps on Ji Bochang's body, and then left the branch office.

Not long after.

Then came a knock on the door of Ji Bochang's hiding place.

"Open the door! The community is here to offer some warmth!"

Ji Bochang heard the noise outside the door and felt it sounded familiar. He opened the door and saw Zhou Fengliu standing in the doorway, dressed in work clothes.

"It's you?" Ji Bochang didn't expect Zhou Fengliu to come looking for him. He was puzzled as to how Zhou Fengliu found this place, since he hadn't committed any crimes last night.

“It’s me… I’ve come to catch you today,” Zhou Fengliu said in a serious tone.

"You...you didn't let me go, did you?"

"When did I say that?" Zhou Fengliu said that he didn't arrest him yesterday because it was after get off work, but today is different.

Chapter 38 He chased, he fled, he couldn't escape even if he had wings! (Second update)

"Okay, okay... is this how it's done?"

Ji Bochang grabbed some odds and ends from the table and threw them at Zhou Fengliu. Then, he jumped out of the second-floor window in a few steps and escaped incredibly fast.

Seeing this, Zhou Fengliu was not in a hurry. He silently turned around and left with his bag on his back. Ji Bochang had the mark of his internal Qi on his body. No matter how fast he ran, he could not shake him off.

He chased, he fled, but he couldn't escape.

A moment later.

Ji Bochang ran wildly for ten blocks, panting and leaning against a telephone pole, looking around for any trace of Zhou Fengliu. As soon as he turned his head, Zhou Fengliu's figure appeared in his field of vision, leaving him no choice but to continue his escape.

After being cornered by Zhou Fengliu once again, Ji Bochang stopped running and prepared to fight Zhou Fengliu to the death.

The result was obvious: after 0.03 seconds, he was pinned down by Zhou Fengliu and unable to move.
