Chapter 164: Chapter 117: Fame and Profit – Chapter 118: Furious with Shame (Part 4)

”Let me start first while I’m feeling inspired,” Bentley really doesn’t sweat the small stuff.

He went on and on for about five minutes, ”...anyway, the injury this time is minor, that’s something I’ve trained for.”

He’s now got the hang of cultivation, not as reckless as he was at the start, and although injuries are inevitable, they’re generally controllable.

However, he hasn’t been able to control his spending on medication, as he’s striving to be in peak condition for every cultivation attempt.

Once he’s finished talking, it’s Qu Jianlei’s turn to tell him what just happened.

After listening, he nods nonchalantly, ”It’s indeed a small matter. Alright, got it.”

”Can you handle it?” Flower Scorpion skeptically asks, ”That’s the Defense Captain, right? Dozens of Mechas.”

”What’s he to me...” Bentley snorts dismissively.

But seeing their doubtful glances, his mouth twitches a bit, ”I’ve already said, I know quite a few big names around here.”

Though he was wanted back then, he was ultimately a Central City native and knew the place very well.

After discovering his whole family was gone, he acted recklessly and once stirred up trouble in the underworld.

So he never considered himself a good person, he only sought to be ”true to his conscience.”

Most of those big figures were met during that time, and his business was extensive, his main connection was smuggling.

Bentley found suitable goods for these big names, his prices were high but he was reliable, so his reputation wasn’t bad.

Later, he left, and upon returning, found some smuggling partners had gone legit and become influential.

Anyway, they all knew he was difficult to deal with, and for trivial favors, they’d help out without hesitation.

Qu Jianlei and Flower Scorpion exchanged a glance, ”But the Defense Captain... he’s a figure of real power, right?”

”What’s he to me?” Bentley snorted dismissively again, ”I’ve told you, it’s a minor issue.”

After speaking, he went to wash up and sleep. Flower Scorpion couldn’t help but sigh.

”This old man really has some guts...this time our teammate seems quite reliable.”

”There’s no need to envy him,” Qu Jianlei knows her innermost thoughts, smiled slightly, ”You won’t be inferior to him in the future.”

That counts as a promise; Flower Scorpion, knowing his temperament, smiled back, ”I’ll wait for your good news then.”

Bentley wasn’t bragging; the next morning, Starr retracted the order to investigate Jian Lei’s qualifications as a maintenance master.

The reason was simple, ”Forget it, I’m only responsible for order and security, whether he’s a maintenance master doesn’t concern me.”

The person in charge of execution didn’t dare to say much, ”Do we still need him to inspect the Mecha?”

Starr pondered.

According to his temperament, he didn’t want to have further contact with this person, but the one who greeted him was a big name from another domain.

Different domains meant no fundamental conflict of interest, and the Defense Captain wasn’t all-powerful, there were still situations where he needed help.

Since Starr had just become the Defense Captain, he needed to build his network and relationships, and that person was someone he’d previously had no contact with.

So, after some thought, he still said, ”Let’s maintain contact for a while, see if they have any requests...”

Maintaining contact provides both offensive and defensive options; inspection times can be postponed, and won’t necessarily be with the original party.

If talks with Jian Lei really fall apart, terminate contact, and that big name can’t say he wasn’t sincere.

The facilitator understood and continued to contact Bentley...

Jin Ye’s new air system was repaired, and the maintenance personnel went to the casino for repairs.

By then, other new air system users heard that a strong figure appeared in Houjing, with low fees and excellent service.

Setting an example, someone else found Bentley through an acquaintance: ”Could you also inspect my system?”

After all, this is the most suitable season for maintenance.

That day, Qu Jianlei arrived at a company specializing in commerce to help inspect their new air system.

Before he started inspection, a dozen people rushed in from outside, ”Who’s Jian Lei? Do you have a maintenance master certificate?”
