Amestina mercilessly refused Star No. 4’s request.

She knew this kind of government will was hard to resist, especially being on Star No. 4, but she asserted that her commerce association would never surrender!

At this time, the notorious reputation of the Cyan Blade Commerce Association played a role.

Bu Shang disregarded her threat, but since he was not there of his own accord, he reported back.

The planetary government thought for a moment and decided not to push too hard—personal vendettas for planetary development were not worth it.

Honestly speaking, the Supreme was not to be lightly insulted, even if only a corpse.

Seeing this, Bu Shang Supreme could only leave grudgingly, not expecting Amestina would follow with a group of people.

Bu Shang was a bit puzzled, ”Don’t you have anything better to do?”

”Moving to be your neighbor,” Amestina replied indifferently, ”to see how the security at your doorstep is.”

She was not joking. During the day, she had people notify the potentially exposed members of the commerce association to gather at the hospital.

After they were gathered, they had to move to a secure place, otherwise, night would be too dangerous.

She was forced into a corner—this time the opponent was tough to deal with.

If she left these members unprotected, they could very likely be killed one by one.

Last night, two of their people survived, not due to the opponent’s mercy, but because time was limited; they left right after succeeding.

If the hospital wasn’t a public place, surely no one would have survived.

The tragedy at the car repair shop a few days ago proved this point.

In fact, the Cyan Blade Commerce Association had done similar things in the past, so they understood this mentality well.

But the association had just expanded its business to Star No. 4, and abandoning the related interests was out of the question; someone had to be stationed here.

Even if they could abandon the newly developed Star No. 4, could they abandon the entire Hope Star Realm?

The opponent’s power covered the whole Star Realm; just look at Bida’s recent plight to understand.

Currently, the opponent showed no aggressiveness during the day, so daytime work was possible, but nights were absolutely perilous.

The Cyan Blade Commerce Association had to find a safe place to settle their people.

On Star No. 4, relatively safe places weren’t scarce, but suitable ones were limited.

The place where the planet government resided was very safe, but would they be willing to shelter the commerce association’s people?

Near the Fourth War Zone headquarters was also relatively safe, however, the Cyan Blade Commerce Association did not want to have too much contact with the military.

After much thought, only near the Guardian Supreme was suitable for the association’s members to settle.

Bu Shang was indifferent to the Cyan Blade Commerce Association, and the members could sense it.

But no matter what, he bore the title of ”Guardian,” a responsibility he could not shirk.

If the association’s people were attacked at his doorstep and he didn’t respond, he would be the laughing stock.

In fact, the faction of the Panda should also understand that they cannot provoke the dignity of the Guardian Supreme.

All along, the faction adhered to the principle of not making a move during the day, respecting the rules.

So Amestina decided to take her people and follow the Guardian Supreme.

Is it shameful? Perhaps a little, but when life is at stake, who cares about face?

Bu Shang was not stupid; he was a bit taken aback but quickly realized, rolling his eyes.

”So you have a nice plan, rejecting me with one foot, then using me as a shield with the other?”

Amestina replied without hesitation, ”I rejected you because we are in the right; as for protection, that’s your duty!”

Bu Shang Supreme rolled his eyes at her, couldn’t be bothered to say more, and drove off.

The members of the Cyan Blade Commerce Association followed obediently, without causing any trouble.

Bu Shang Supreme’s place was a scenic park, not in the city center but bustling, a peaceful spot amidst the hustle.

Amestina found a large villa near the park, threw out some Silver Notes, and had the landlord leave immediately.

After moving in, they finally had time to handle accumulated affairs.

Then someone was surprised to discover, ”Wow, the military exchange delegation was attacked last night, the assailant suspected to be the Panda faction.”

This news was quite explosive, someone couldn’t help but curse, ”Damn, these guys are making enemies everywhere, are they really crazy?”

Amestina snorted coldly, ”Good news, madness is a precursor to extinction, I’m only worried it wasn’t them.”

Then someone else muttered softly, ”Who knows... how crazy they’ll get next.”

That night, they received the latest news: the opponent struck again, killing an Awakened warrior in the Customs Enforcement dormitory area.

The deceased was named Elvin, just a mere C-level Warrior.

Nobody knew what kind of grudge led the killer to sneak into the Customs Enforcement living area to kill.

Half of the Customs Enforcement staff lived in the living area, those with families had family suites, while those without had single rooms.

This was akin to sneaking into the backyard of the Customs Enforcement to commit murder, even worse than breaking into the headquarters.

Those living in the living area were not just Customs Enforcement members but also their family members.

One can only imagine how angry the Customs Enforcement Team members would be.

Smuggling is extremely dangerous, and while they’ve grown used to the risks, their families have done nothing to deserve harm.

As for how the culprit was identified? There’s no controversy over that either.

After the murder took place, some members of the Customs Enforcement Team tried to corner the killer and once again saw the ”Silver Snake Dance” magic.

At the time, the Customs Enforcement Warship wasn’t near the residential area because no one expected the killer to be so maniacal.

So, the person escaped, but the killer has been identified.

Upon hearing this news, Amestina couldn’t help but laugh, ”They must be tired of living; their courage is truly admirable.”

That night, the City Guard set up checkpoints everywhere, strictly investigating Panda and related people, showing that even the Planet Government couldn’t tolerate it anymore.

The pressure even extended to the Engineering College, as the City Guard wanted to interrogate the three female teachers related to Panda at night.

Oh, no, they listed four people on the list—even including Bellini.

Cheng Qingshan is quite stubborn, but even he couldn’t withstand it at this moment, only able to gently express.

”No matter what, Panda is a volunteer teacher. As of now, he’s still a member of the Guard Team at the Planet Mansion.”

”His status hasn’t been revoked, so if you want to interrogate the other volunteer teachers at night... should you reconsider?”

This matter felt truly magical as if Hoyel’s current support for Panda was giving the spectators a big piece of gossip.

The City Guard didn’t dare to insist and instead persuaded Cheng Qingshan—go ask those four individuals, perhaps they will be willing to accept the investigation.

Surprisingly, Xiang Xue gave her response, saying it’s not impossible to inquire with us.

But at this time, it is definitely not right; interrogating at night implies we’re under major suspicion.

Xiang Xue straightforwardly declared: If you want to inquire, it must be during the day, and it must not affect normal teaching.

As long as you agree, it’s fine! Cheng Qingshan was almost in tears: He’s been through so much in the past half year.

After he provided his response, the City Guard left immediately without another word: The other party has already agreed, so why insist?

Whether day or night, as long as the other party is willing to accept, everything can be negotiated.

After Xiang Xue responded, Bellini couldn’t help but complain, ”We’re volunteer teachers, why should we cooperate with them?”

Xiang Xue heard this and smiled, responding nonchalantly, ”Do you really think I’m easygoing? I just don’t want my rest disturbed.”

However, the tomboy was still somewhat dissatisfied, ”But after it’s day, we’ll still be questioned.”

”No, we won’t,” Xiang Xue shook her head, answering confidently, ”I have classes in the morning.”

”What about the afternoon?” Bellini was almost enraged, ”Can you keep having classes?”

”No need for the afternoon,” Xiang Xue shook her head, confidently replied, ”They won’t even last until noon before they feel embarrassed to come.”

”Last until?” The tomboy caught the key phrase, her eyes lit up instantly, ”You have a strategy?”

”No strategy needed,” Xiang Xue replied casually, ”That guy deserved to die.”

”How do you know?” Bellini asked impulsively.

However, she soon sighed, ”I knew it, you must have connections with Panda!”

And she wasn’t wrong; the reason Xiang Xue was so certain was that Qu Jianlei had contacted her.

After learning of Panda’s plan, she expressed no issue in cooperating.

In fact, those truly observant would have noticed that on the night, the City Guard was responsible for the thorough investigation, and the Customs Enforcement Warship didn’t make an appearance.

Those who didn’t understand would think deploying the warship was taboo, likely to provoke strong suppression from the government.

But that wasn’t the truth. The Customs Enforcement Warship really can’t be deployed randomly, yet when aggrieved, why not make a move?

Not many knew that the living area of the Customs Enforcement Division was in high spirits, but several higher-ups in the division hadn’t made any statements.

It’s not that they lacked responsibility, but because at the site of Elvin’s death, the culprit left many small paper notes behind.

On the notes was a single sentence, ”Basam, your collusion with the Star Thieves has harmed too many people; this is the justice judgment!”

This seemed nonsensical, and very few knew Elvin’s real name.

The seniors retired in large numbers, and many of the younger ones took up pivotal positions.

But how would such young people care about a temporary outsider?

However, the label ”colluding with Star Thieves” quickly caught the attention of the Customs Enforcement Division higher-ups.

All the paper notes at the scene were collected, and those who saw them were given a gag order—no nonsense allowed!

Actually, there wasn’t a need for emphasis; anyone working in the Customs Enforcement Division for more than three to five years knew the gravity!

Throughout the night, the Customs Enforcement Division was investigating Elvin—or rather, Basam’s past!

The investigative results gave everyone quite a headache: This guy... was indeed too close to the Star Thieves!

Saying ”close” was putting it nicely; they were outright in cahoots—several competitors had been completely eradicated by the Star Thieves!

How did such a figure get hired initially?

Finally, someone spoke up, ”Just because they said collusion doesn’t mean it’s true? Blocking this information... all rumors!”
