CHAPTER 156: CHAPTER 156: 100,000 PER HOUR

"Thank you."

Xuan Er nodded slightly and began eating.

Xuan Shiyi sat opposite Lin Xiaoyan, having overheard the previous conversation.

He whispered, "Don’t worry, you’ll be able to sleep tonight!"

"Hmm?" Lin Xiaoyan widened her eyes and looked at Xuan Shiyi.

Xuan Shiyi gestured toward the back with his mouth.

Lin Xiaoyan and Lu Lan turned to look.

It was Shui Yuanyu and the others.

They withdrew their gaze, with Lin Xiaoyan pondering, when her eyes suddenly lit up.

"Hypnosis!!!"

Lin Xiaoyan exclaimed excitedly.

Xuan Shiyi nodded with a smile, "But..."

"But what?" Lin Xiaoyan asked eagerly.

Xuan Shiyi looked at Shui Yuanyu and the others, who had already spotted them and glanced over expressionlessly from afar.

"Look at their attitude, but since you’re in the same group with them, it should be easy to talk to them," Xuan Shiyi said, pouting in the direction of Shui Yuanyu’s group.

With their little superpower, they act so arrogant. Tsk, really uninteresting!

Thinking about their arrogant personalities, Lin Xiaoyan fell silent.

"Can I pay them?" Lin Xiaoyan asked quietly.

Xuan Shiyi pointed at the phone, "You can check the price for Gan Tu’s hypnosis later; it’ll make you choke on an egg!"

Lin Xiaoyan: ....

She took out her phone; there was a signal in the cafeteria. She opened the Special Investigation Bureau app, searched for Gan Tu, and then...

As expected! She was so shocked that she opened her mouth wide enough to swallow an egg!

Lin Xiaoyan closed her mouth, put away her phone, and turned her attention back to eating.

It’s so expensive, she thought she’ll just endure it!

Lu Lan asked curiously, "How much is it?"

Lin Xiaoyan continued eating and held up one finger.

"Ten thousand!!!" Lu Lan exclaimed with admiration, "Earning big, just one hypnosis session brings in ten thousand!"

"Haha..." Xuan Shiyi laughed, "Girl, you’re dreaming."

Lu Lan: ....

Lin Xiaoyan took a sip of porridge, swallowed it, and glanced at Gan Tu, who was sitting far away with his food.

"A hundred thousand an hour."

"What!!!"

Lu Lan was so shocked she almost dropped her food.

Xuan Er and the others continued eating without changing their expressions.

Lin Xiaoyan shook her head and whispered, "Do they actually have clients charging so much?"

"Of course, and quite a lot, as far as I know, their client bookings are full for months."

Lin Xiaoyan: Goodness, how much money must they be making!

Speaking of money, Lin Xiaoyan looked plaintively at Xuan Shiyi.

"Lin Feng still hasn’t transferred any money to me."

Xuan Shiyi: ....

"Well... that Lin Feng guy, he’s cursed with money troubles..." Xuan Shiyi muttered.

"You never mentioned he was cursed with money troubles before!"

"Hehe, I never thought he’d be in such dire straits now either..." Xuan Shiyi rubbed his nose.

"Before, he’d just lose a bit, and only from what he earned.

This year, maybe... because his cultivation has advanced, so he’s losing even more... probably."

Lin Xiaoyan: "I’ve never heard of such a thing, are you lying to me?"

Xuan Shiyi: "Why would I lie to you!"

Xuan Er finished eating, took out a handkerchief, and calmly wiped his mouth, "This kind of thing does happen."

"See, Xuan Er confirmed it!" Xuan Shiyi said with confidence.

Lin Xiaoyan felt dispirited, "So my money’s gone?"

"No, that’s the advantage of placing orders in the app; as long as he doesn’t transfer the money,

the authorities will keep sending him reminders to pay you.

Even if it goes to court, you’ll be in the right."

"Don’t worry, the money won’t disappear, and as long as Lin Feng has the money, he’ll definitely pay you back."

Xuan Shiyi thought, with his money-losing curse, it’ll take him a long time to pay it back...

Hearing this, Lin Xiaoyan was slightly relieved but also felt a bit sorry for Lin Feng.

Constantly taking on missions but constantly losing money, what’s he doing it for?

If Lin Feng knew Lin Xiaoyan’s thoughts, he would surely say: To have money for food.

His money troubles were different from others; for others, earning money would bring losses, but for him,

he loses money regardless. If he doesn’t take on missions, he’ll end up worse than broke!

After finishing her meal, Lin Xiaoyan returned to the meeting room from yesterday.

The leaders were already there, discussing around the table.

When they saw Lin Xiaoyan, their eyes lit up, enthusiastically pulling her to the table to look at the plans they worked on overnight.

Seeing the meticulous and detailed plans, Lin Xiaoyan felt a surge of admiration.

She looked at the dark circles under their eyes but noticed they were still full of energy,

and sighed, realizing she wasn’t the only one who hadn’t slept.

These were truly hardworking people.

The leader noticed Lin Xiaoyan’s exhaustion and inquired, "Didn’t sleep well last night?"

Hearing the leader’s question, Lin Xiaoyan felt nervous, "A bit of insomnia."

Upon hearing this, everyone present was very understanding.

Anyone who continually "sees" those images with a brain constantly receiving information would have trouble sleeping.

The leader pondered, "After today, let that hypnosis user try to put you to sleep tonight."

"Is... is that okay? His fees... are quite high..." Lin Xiaoyan said embarrassedly.

"Hahaha..." The leader understood Lin Xiaoyan’s concern, and laughed, "Don’t worry, it’s free of charge."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiaoyan’s heart filled with excitement, looking forward to a good night’s sleep.

The day’s mission began.

The soldiers at the door soon invited the people outside to come in.

"Um..." Lin Xiaoyan spoke, "Could we put a trash can..."

Yesterday, she had to hold back several times because those images were really unpleasant.

"Sure." The chief of staff immediately ordered a trash can to be placed next to Lin Xiaoyan.

Not just Lin Xiaoyan, even they were uncomfortable seeing those transmitted photos.

Especially for young Lin Xiaoyan who "sees" them firsthand.

Lin Xiaoyan took a deep breath, trying to suppress her fear, placing her hand gently on the young soldier in front of her.

She closed her eyes, furrowing her brows, and absorbed the "seen" images.

After the person left, she opened her eyes, her expression grave, "The comrade just now, he... on the way back,

was stabbed in the chest by a Hua Country person and was killed..."

Everyone in the meeting room looked grim and furious upon hearing Lin Xiaoyan’s words.

They could accept being killed by Jiao Mian Country people, but not by someone from their own country.

Their mission this time was to rescue the Hua Country people, being killed by one’s countryman was truly laughable!

The leader’s face remained stern, saying nothing.

The chief of staff beside him chuckled, "Lucky for your pre-cognition, otherwise we wouldn’t know there was such a traitor!

The others’ moods shifted sharply on hearing this.

Yes, no one’s dead yet!

The chief of staff asked Lin Xiaoyan to describe the Hua Country person who murdered the soldier.
