Chapter 1051: Chapter 917: Missed Opportunity

Qu Jianlei left with a group of Supremes, gone for nearly three years, which had a certain impact on Gemini Star.

Luckily, the impact wasn’t too large, it was still generally controllable.

After he finished asking, Youyou’s question came, ”Old Ben said he waited for half a year, where did you guys run off to in the past two years?”

Then she turned to Xiao Moshan, ”Congrats, you’ve finally advanced to A-level... and you still came along?”

Xiao Moshan sighed, looking disgruntled, not answering her question.

”Don’t mention it,” Qu Jianlei replied gloomily, ”We made a miscalculation and drifted in space for over a year.”

”Huh?” Youyou was instantly astonished, ”And... how’s the old lady doing?”

She wasn’t very familiar with Granny Jia, but after all, she was their own Supreme, any mishap would be a huge loss.

”She’s fine,” Qu Jianlei answered offhandedly, ”We started a new foundation, she and another Supreme are watching over it.”

”Another Supreme...” Youyou heard this and was astonished again, her mouth slightly open, thinking how common Supremes are nowadays?

”Alright, let’s not say more for now,” Qu Jianlei shook his head, ”Did you not receive the Pioneer I couriered to you?”

”Pioneer... yes, we have one,” Youyou thought for a moment and nodded, ”But wasn’t that Bentley’s order?”

Qu Jianlei was taken aback, raised his hand and slapped his forehead... he finally realized where the problem was.

He had mailed a Pioneer to each of the Gemini Star, the recipient was indeed Bentley.

Because the intelligent terminal was just a facade, the important thing was the Little Lake data fragment inside the Pioneer, indicating they were in the Celestial River Star Realm.

Bentley didn’t know about Little Lake before, but waiting in space for half a year allowed him to ponder many things.

Moreover, if the Omen Ship encountered trouble, 3344 and 8384 would appear beside it in cooperative combat.

This gradually led Old Ben to accept that there is an artificial intelligence in his own central control system.

But this information was not suitable for others to know yet, so he set the recipients to Bentley.

You could say he wasn’t wrong in doing so, but alas... Old Ben went to space to find people of his own accord!

When the courier arrived, Bentley had just left for the second time, so it was missed.

And Old Ben hasn’t returned till now, with no news, naturally, everyone is unaware.

The most troublesome part was that everyone in his small team, while trustworthy, had their own little secrets.

The team members had enough self-awareness not to probe into others’ secrets lightly.

Plus, the courier service on Gemini Star is... really very developed, he himself has bought quite a few materials online here.

So for Old Ben to buy two Pioneers for himself through the platform... is it that rare?

Everyone refrained from opening them naturally, which was to be expected.

Moreover, Little Lake knew his intention, even if someone else opened the terminal, if the Big Head Butterfly found out it’s not Old Ben, it wouldn’t show up.

Because of this, although Paradise Star encountered trouble, they had no idea how to contact him!

”Looks like I’ll have to make a trip to Paradise Star,” Qu Jianlei stood up.

Then he looked at Flower Scorpion and Xiao Moshan, ”You two stay behind and discuss these past years with Youyou.”

The two didn’t oppose... with three Supremes going to Paradise Star, they could resolve any issue.

But just then, the long-silent Celestial Sound spoke up, ”Take me along, I have a residence permit for Paradise Star too.”

Qu Jianlei was taken aback, then nodded, ”Alright, you go pack up, I’ll book the tickets.”

This was the only outsider in the team accepted recklessly, purely encountered by accident, with no prior connection.

It’s not that Light Attributes are particularly rare... okay, actually they are very rare, the key is not to let her feel alienated.

Thus, he couldn’t be too stand-offish in his actions.

Qu Jianlei was in the farm for less than three hours, then hurriedly left with people again, leaving three former teammates to reminisce.

There were many flights between Gemini Star, even though Homeland Star was gradually becoming a subsidiary of Paradise.

After landing, the four headed straight to Yunwu Mountain.

Upon reaching the outskirts of the inn, they were astonished to find that there were City Guards guarding the perimeter, along with armored vehicles and flying Mecha.

These people were strictly checking identities, even though it was currently the peak tourist season at Yunwu Mountain.

Paranoid and Mu Yu walked at the front, couldn’t help but mutter, ”Just short of deploying the Starship.”

The next moment, someone raised a hand to block Mu Yu’s path and rudely spoke, ”Papers!”

”Are you courting death?” Paranoid was annoyed, casually throwing over an identification paper, then released his aura, ”I am here!”

The paper thrown was another fake ID he had gotten a long time ago.

But this didn’t matter, it was almost good enough, the key was the aura of the Supreme, impossible to fake.

In the distance, a figure flashed, Fourth Master appeared, with a look of joy, ”Big brother, you’ve finally come!”

Don’t assume that because he was a soldier, he would only act by-the-book, in fact, a soldier’s ability to disguise is far beyond most actors.

If an actor’s performance fails, at most it’s a ”CUT” or a blunder, if a soldier’s performance fails, it can mean death!

Big brother... I could easily be your grandpa! The Paranoid nodded slightly, ”Hmm, what’s going on here?”

”Ah, don’t even mention it...” The Fourth Master sighed and shook his head, ”The government wants to requisition land again, they’re so unreasonable.”

The nearby City Guards heard this, their faces darkened simultaneously, was that a public insult?

However, they also knew that this guesthouse wasn’t simple, it had more than one A-level behind it.

Like this A-level complaining, he wasn’t even the real manager of the guesthouse, but came from the Homeland Star.

Actually, Xiang Xue and the others have been running the guesthouse for over three years, and those who paid attention had basically figured out their background.

The City Guards all knew that these people immigrated from the Homeland Star, and they had some wealth.

Later, when some of the managers left, the guesthouse encountered issues and called for help from the Homeland Star.

This situation isn’t unusual; immigrants from the Homeland Star tend to stick together in Paradise.

However, the guesthouse already had one A-level, now yet another one has arrived, which made the City Guards a bit troubled too.

They inquired about the new A-level – since it’s the Gemini Star, gathering info is much easier.

They later found out that not only does this A-level have a residency permit in Paradise, but also owns a sizable farm in Homeland.

This scenario isn’t uncommon among many Homeland immigrants, earning in Homeland and spending in Paradise, something the Central Government welcomes.

But further investigation revealed that this farm owner is troublesome and not to be trifled with back in Homeland, making the City Guards more uneasy.

Of course, the influence from Homeland Star can’t really reach Paradise, given they are equal central governments.

Yet, the related information suggested the new A-level’s style was rather forceful, making it quite tricky.

The presence of two A-levels certainly wasn’t as simple as one plus one, the effect was far greater than two.

Such a combination, even among the City Guards, would be considered significant combat power.

So in the past six months, including but not limited to the City Guard, various forces were gradually exerting pressure on the guesthouse.

However, in terms of actions, they were relatively restrained, at least there were no outright confrontations.

Yet these forces have different strengths, Patrol Guards, government, and even society’s organizations...

An all-around pressure really didn’t make one feel good.

Besides the overt pressure, various covert probes had been ongoing, Fourth Master was even attacked while shopping.

However, Fourth Master was quite alert, realizing something was wrong, he didn’t fight back, choosing to flee instead.

As he fled, he shouted that he had legally immigrated to Paradise Star through investment, why was he being targeted?

Previously mentioned, the law and order on Paradise Star have been pretty good, even Celestial Sound robbing Qu Jianlei was an anomaly.

So such an incident didn’t happen again, after all, an A-level deciding to lie down and roll around would make anyone scratch their head.

This explanation dragged on, the Paranoid didn’t ask in detail, simply nodded slightly, ”Alright, let’s go inside and talk.”

Just as he spoke, Xiang Xue appeared, happily calling out to him, ”Big brother, you finally came.”

In all fairness, compared to the Fourth Master, her expression was slightly exaggerated.

”Mm,” the Paranoid nodded, and without saying another word, led the people inside.

Qu Jianlei and the other two didn’t bother to reveal their identities either, and the City Guards didn’t dare to comment further.

Supreme openly appearing had that kind of deterrent power.

Watching them enter the guesthouse, the head of the City Guard looked at the one checking the documents just now, ”Where’s the Supreme come from?”

”Seems like...” This one shook his head slightly, eyes a bit dazed, ”From some remote star realm?”

The head could tell at a glance, this one might be influenced, ”Specifically what’s the situation?”

This one shook his head again, suddenly having a brainwave, ”How can I dare to talk about Supreme information?”

After Qu Jianlei and the others entered the courtyard of the guesthouse, Xiang Xue immediately gave him a hug, ”You’re okay... that’s great!”

Seeing this, the Paranoid muttered softly, ”Why only hug one?”

”Hmm?” Mu Yu turned her head slightly, looking at him faintly.

”I was saying... I was saying there should be more hugs,” the Paranoid declared righteously, ”It’s been years since we’ve met, after all.”

Before Mu Yu could speak further, he proactively changed the topic, ”What’s the deal with this requisition?”

”Government land requisition,” Xiang Xue answered helplessly, ”They say Yunwu Mountain’s tourism services are uneven, need unified management.”

”Then this...” Mu Yu thought for a moment, looked at the Paranoid, ”Isn’t this a reasonable request?”

The Paranoid had thoughts but caught himself speaking too hastily earlier, deciding to avoid trouble.

Qu Jianlei ponderously asked, ”Are the tourism services really chaotic?”

”I don’t think so,” Xiang Xue answered earnestly, ”We’re using labor outsourcing, and the other businesses aren’t bad.”

”Heh,” Qu Jianlei chuckled with a smirk, ”I think so too, they’ve even said service has declined these last two years.”

He had initially followed this tourism project and still had some impression.
