Chapter 159: Chapter 115: A Bit Strange - 116: Spreading Fame (End of Four Updates)

”When I saved him back then, I was wearing a mask,” Bentley replied casually, ”plus we agreed to only recognize code words.”

Qu Jianlei nodded at these words, ”Truly rare.”

”Rare my ass,” Bentley grumbled, ”back then when I was saving people, I was at Modified Warrior level.”

So after becoming successful, they definitely don’t want to provoke the wrath of a Modified Warrior.

Jin Ye’s first order went smoothly, and two days later, Bentley got another gig.

This gig was also just testing, not repairing, and the pay wasn’t high, only a mere three hundred silver coins, but at least there was no need for a house call.

The third order came a bit late, but it was a big one — a full performance test of four mechas.

Rather frustratingly, this time the tests had to be done on-site.

But Bentley assured, ”No one will watch the testing process, the key is the four mechas being delivered to you, do you want to become famous?”

The suburbs aren’t bustling, the occasional appearance of one or two mechas doesn’t matter, but four would really stand out.

Secretly transporting them isn’t too hard, but... what if someone sees them?

This time the testing took Qu Jianlei two days.

Actually, with his speed, he could finish in a day, but that would be a bit too shocking.

Secondly, they were paying too much, four hundred silver coins per mecha for testing... earning one thousand six hundred a day, is that appropriate?

For the sake of money, Qu Jianlei reluctantly agreed to go back and forth twice,

Just as the job was finished, two days later another job came in... it was the surveillance system!

Qu Jianlei, upon hearing, asked in astonishment, ”There’s surveillance here?”

”This is Houjing!” Bentley rolled his eyes, ”There are six main roads into the city, each with surveillance cameras, too many?”

That really isn’t too many, Qu Jianlei was certain of that, ”But all six cameras are broken?”

”Someone doesn’t like it,” Bentley spread his hands, ”You know, there are a lot of lawless people.”

Wasteland people don’t like being restrained, such situations are quite normal.

In fact, Qu Jianlei didn’t want them fixed either, he himself preferred to stay in the shadows, ”How long have they been broken?”

”No idea,” Bentley laughed awkwardly, ”Anyway, we’re just here to make money.”

Qu Jianlei shook his head cynically, ”Sorry, I’m not really interested in that.”

”Two hundred in travel expenses,” Bentley spread his hands, knowing the other guy’s weakness, ”It’s just a trip, no big deal.”

Qu Jianlei was silent, then spoke after a while.

”Alright, it’s not about the travel expenses, mostly if I don’t go, it would easily raise suspicions about our origins.”

Bentley nodded expressionlessly, ”Hmm, that’s a valid concern.”

Qu Jianlei looked at the old man suspiciously, thinking it sounded like sarcasm.

The next day, both of them followed a mid-level official from the Settlement to check the six cameras.

All six cameras were destroyed, Qu Jianlei couldn’t help but gripe, ”Can’t you just replace the cameras?”

”The number of cameras is limited,” said the mid-level official named Franco helplessly, ”even if you want to buy them, you can’t.”

”Limited quantity?” Qu Jianlei was astounded, even on Blue Star, these things are cheap as cabbage.

But the next moment, he reminded himself, this is the Wasteland, anything can happen here.

”Mainly it’s because Taikoo hoards them too much,” Franco complained helplessly, looking full of grievances.

”The ’upper echelons’ can only provide a limited number of cameras, and over in Taikoo, they’re constantly getting their cameras destroyed...”

”Not having enough for themselves, they use our Four Capitals’... where does that leave us?”

”Always having cameras destroyed?” Qu Jianlei was astounded again, ”Why not check the footage to see who’s doing it.”

Franco looked even more troubled, ”The recording system is more expensive and useless... some Divine Shooters are especially skilled.”

Then he thought of something and looked at Qu Jianlei in astonishment, ”You’ve actually seen a recording system, who can afford that?”

Qu Jianlei rubbed his forehead helplessly and chose not to answer.

Bentley, seeing this, swiftly changed the topic, ”This surveillance system, was it set up with your own funds?”

”Taikoo wouldn’t be kind enough to help with construction,” Franco continued to complain.

”Some places have them, but if the other Four Capitals want them, they stop us... no effort to build their own, only sabotage ours!”

”So it was self-funded,” Qu Jianlei was at a loss for words.

After listening for a while, he already understood that the cultural environment and productivity level in the Celestial District weren’t suited for installing surveillance.

It’s just face-saving projects that ruin everything!

Bentley didn’t want to dwell on it further, ”Are there any spare cameras? If not, we can’t test.”

”Only three left, I brought one out,” Franco answered gloomily, ”please don’t damage it.”

Qu Jianlei took the camera and installed it within minutes, ”Ask the monitoring room if they can see it.”

Before long, a voice came from the monitoring room, ”Can’t see anything, the line at the northwest entrance you just installed is damaged.”

Qu Jianlei looked at Franco speechlessly, ”The line is damaged, how can I test this?”

Franco confidently replied, ”Then please figure out where the line’s broken so we can fix it.”

Changing the line is impossible, the distance is too far, and there’s also the issue of transmitting optical signals, which is even more expensive.

”You want me to find where the line’s broken?” Qu Jianlei was really frustrated, ”Why don’t you guys test it yourselves?”

”We’ve already tested it,” a shrill voice came from Franco’s radio, ”we couldn’t find it!”
