Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 389: 287. Fugitive Jindai Kongyin_2

Brave Xiao Niu: “Guarantee to complete the mission.”

Boss: “There’s 10 million left, of which 7 million will be transferred to Qiu Xue as organizational operating funds, then Brave Xiao Niu, Liu Dezhu, and Hu Xiaoniu will each get one million, as a bonus for this mission. Additionally, from now on, each of you three will receive 100,000 per week as compensation.”

Liu Dezhu, overjoyed: “Thank you, boss!”

At this moment, Liu Dezhu felt grateful for the choice he had made earlier. Wasn’t this money coming in faster than swallowing gold bars?

He just needed to wait two more weeks before he could buy his parents a new house with an elevator.

Hu Xiaoniu, at their home, was just about to type a refusal saying he and Zhang Tianzhen didn’t need the money.

...
But he was stopped by Zhang Tianzhen: “Are you silly? Whatever the boss gives you, just accept it. It’s from the boss and it doesn’t matter if you lack anything. Besides, if you don’t take it, Liu Dezhu will feel embarrassed to accept his.”

Hu Xiaoniu paused for a moment and then deleted all the text he had typed.

Zhang Tianzhen then said: “Also, we used to rely on our clans, always asking our parents for money. Now that we’re earning our own money, I find it quite interesting. If you always tell the boss that you have a rich family and can rely on them, then you are still a member of the Hu Family, not one of the Daytime group.”

“True,” Hu Xiaoniu nodded.

In the Daytime group chat, the boss said: “Next time we travel, ‘Little Duck,’ you arrange the vehicles. It’s time to give Zhang Chengze a taste of the goodies; first take him to see Fourth District.”

Liu Dezhu hesitated: “Boss, isn’t Fourth District a bit dangerous? I’m afraid I might not be capable enough.”

Boss: “Don’t worry, if anything happens, just run to the Begonia Boxing Gym. ‘Ice Eye’ has some clout there and will help you resolve the issues when the time comes.”

Ice Eye: “Okay, boss.”

Shortly thereafter, ‘Fearless’ Zhang Tianzhen said in the Daytime group chat: “Boss, Zhang Chengze has made the payment. He says he has a good friend in City 10 who wants to move to City 18 to seek protection from Daytime, money is not an issue.”

Boss: “Reject him. Remember, money is a tool for Daytime, not our goal. You need to look further into the future, not focus on these minor gains. Our future cannot be measured by money.”

Fearless: “Alright, boss.”

Everyone in the Daytime group greatly respected the boss, who they realized had such a grand vision, not even caring about millions.

It was only then that Qing Chen, having dealt with the matters in the Daytime group chat, finally had time to check He Xiaoxiao’s chat records.

Every night of the return, the chat was always the liveliest, as everyone would share the events of the past week in order to exchange information.

That night, He Xiaoxiao unexpectedly announced a new rule: “Good evening, Time Travelers. We all clearly understand the purpose of establishing this chat, which is to facilitate the exchange of ‘game strategies’ among all Time Travelers, enabling us to survive better in the Inner World.”

“After the establishment of the chat, I believe everyone has gotten to know every other member. Today, I am announcing a rule: from now on, upon every return, each group member must share a game strategy to remain in this chat. If you cannot share a game strategy, you will be downgraded to the ordinary group. Otherwise, there will always be people who stay hidden in the group, absorbing others’ strategies without ever helping other Time Travelers.”

He Xiaoxiao continued: “Such members violate the principle of mutual assistance.”

At this point, He Xiaoxiao finally revealed his “intention” in creating the group – better information gathering.

He had initially offered three weeks of free access and then allowed everyone to freely exchange information, letting them taste the benefits of information exchange.

At this point, to continue staying in the group, one had to provide something valuable, as a ‘membership fee.’

With literally dozens of chat groups from He Xiaoxiao, if all members paid their membership fees, Kyushu wouldn’t need to struggle to establish any intelligence agency, as each Time Traveler in every group was a spy for Kyushu.

Qing Chen felt a bit of admiration for Kyushu when he thought of this.

Although he had rejected Kyushu’s invitation, their scheme was grand and their methods were rather clever.

This was something the straightforward Kunlun couldn’t compare with.

He Xiaoxiao said: “Since I set the rule, let me share my strategy first. Currently, the Deer Island family’s controlled Time Travelers have illegally infiltrated our country, aiming likely at Xian City. As far as I know, they might have found a crucial ‘public test qualifier’ there and are attempting to transport him (her) to the intended place.”

Qing Chen paused, was this Deer Island’s reverse travel plan?

The so-called reverse travel plan involved precisely targeting important figures from the Inner World like Li Yinuo by finding their ordinary counterparts in the Outer World, ensuring that the ordinary people from the Outer World complete the travel, thus replacing the natives of the Inner World.

The corresponding individuals from the Inner and Outer Worlds, because of geographical differences, had never completed their travels.

For example, the Inner World’s Li Yinuo corresponded to Outer World Los Angeles in City 18, yet the Outer World’s Li Yinuo was in Jingcheng. Thus, what Deer Island needed to do was to transport the Li Yinuo from Outer World Jingcheng to Outer World Los Angeles, making it possible for the Inner World Li Yinuo to be replaced.
