#266 - Chapter 265 Free Buffet

In less than two minutes, the woman brought over her supervisor, a thin, tall middle-aged man named Lu Hai.

After Li Chenqiu explained his request, Lu Hai agreed without much hesitation and led Li Chenqiu and Xiang Nanzhi to the underground ice storage.

After passing through several technologically advanced titanium alloy doors, the three arrived in front of a four-meter-high, three-meter-wide silver-white iron door.

Lu Hai smiled and extended his hand: "The revived beasts of Tier 3 and above that our supermarket prohibits are all inside."

Li Chenqiu looked around and asked with some doubt, "Such an important place, don't you have any security?"

"Security?" Lu Hai's lips curled up, revealing a confident smile: "You probably know who stands behind our supermarket. Even if I leave the ice storage door open, no one would dare to steal the revived beasts, unless they don't want to live."

Li Chenqiu nodded with a smile: "That's true, the reputation of the Five Great Villains must be…"

"Hey!" Lu Hai raised his hand to interrupt Li Chenqiu, correcting him: "It's the Five Great Benevolent People."

Li Chenqiu's eyebrows curved, indicating his agreement.

Lu Hai walked to the iron door and fiddled with an electronic touchscreen for a while, then reached out and pressed it. A green light passed through the palm of his hand.

Ding—Verification successful!

Rumble—

The titanium alloy door trembled violently and began to move horizontally to both sides. Visible white cold air poured out from the door缝, blowing Li Chenqiu's hair in disarray.

Crack, crack, crack—

A series of sounds came from inside the door, and the electric lights embedded in the ceiling turned on all at once, illuminating the dim ice storage.

Lu Hai tightened his clothes and walked to the door, saying, "Please come in, both of you!"

Li Chenqiu and Xiang Nanzhi did not hesitate and followed Lu Hai into the ice storage.

Looking at the neatly arranged revived beast corpses, Li Chenqiu said with some surprise, "There are so many!"

When he was in City 11, he had been to the Hunter Association's storage ice storage. There were only a dozen Tier 3 revived beasts inside, but just a glance at this ice storage, he felt like there were nearly thirty revived beasts!

Lu Hai said calmly, "There are twenty-four Tier 3 revived beasts and three Tier 4 revived beasts in the ice storage."

Xiang Nanzhi asked curiously, "How much would it cost to buy them all?"

Lu Hai said with a smile, "It would probably require nearly 90 million contribution points, which translates to 900 million Federal currency."

"900 million!" Li Chenqiu's eyes lit up instantly.

Lu Hai, who was beside him, did not notice Li Chenqiu's abnormality and asked, "Shall I show you the Tier 3 revived beasts?"

"No need." Li Chenqiu shook his head and winked at Xiang Nanzhi.

Xiang Nanzhi understood and walked towards the ice storage door.

Lu Hai was stunned when he heard this: "What do you mean, no need?"

Li Chenqiu put his hand on Lu Hai's shoulder, revealing a meaningful smile: "I want them all."

"All?" Lu Hai said in a daze, "If you want them all, your 10 million won't be enough…"

Rumble—

Before Lu Hai could finish speaking, the sound of the ice storage door closing came from behind him.

At this time, Li Chenqiu also revealed his ultimate goal.

"Do you know how to sprinkle cumin?"

…

The sky turned a fish-belly white, the night gradually faded, and it was time for the supermarket to change shifts.

A young man walked to the counter and shook the woman who was dozing off.

"Ha~" The woman yawned and looked at the young man with sleepy eyes: "You're here, I'm so sleepy!"

The young man walked into the counter and patted the woman's shoulder: "If you're sleepy, go back to sleep quickly!"

"Okay." The woman stretched: "I'll go say hello to the supervisor."

With that, the woman staggered away from the counter. Before long, the woman walked back in confusion and asked, "Have you seen the supervisor?"

The young man shook his head: "I haven't seen him. The supervisor must have left because of something!"

"Okay!"

The woman rubbed her eyes and walked towards her residence, without suspecting anything.

Time passed slowly, and in a flash, it was nine o'clock.

The young man stood at the counter, dialing Lu Hai's phone, but the response was always, "The number you dialed is temporarily unavailable, please try again later."

A series of unanswered calls finally aroused the young man's vigilance. He immediately put down his work and called the still-dazed woman to go to the supermarket's surveillance room.

…

Inside the surveillance room, an old man with gray hair was lying on a chair, tilting his head and sleeping soundly.

Bang!

The door was pushed open.

The sudden sound startled the old man, and he immediately woke up from his dream.

"Oh my gosh!" The old man covered his chest, looking at the direction of the door in shock: "Did you eat dynamite, kid? Don't you know you have to knock before entering?!"

The young man walked anxiously to the old man: "Uncle Xu, Supervisor Lu is missing!"

The old man frowned: "If he's missing, he's missing. Don't make a fuss!"

The young man shook his head: "It's not just a simple disappearance, it's a loss of contact, completely untraceable!"

The old man's expression became serious when he heard this: "When was the last time you saw Supervisor Lu?"

The young man turned to look at the woman.

The woman brushed aside the bangs in front of her eyes and recalled: "It was around 4:30 last night. At that time, two people wanted to buy revived beasts. Because the amount was relatively large, Supervisor Lu took over.

Later, at the request of one of them, Supervisor Lu took them to the highest-level storage ice storage. After that, I don't know what happened. There weren't many people at the counter at that time, so I took a nap…"

The woman smiled awkwardly.

After listening to the woman's words, the old man immediately pulled up the surveillance footage from 4:30 AM at the entrance of the highest-level storage ice storage.

In the picture, Lu Hai led Li Chenqiu and Xiang Nanzhi to the door. After chatting for a while, they walked into the ice storage door. Before long, the ice storage door slowly closed. Since then, no figures appeared in the picture.

Since no cameras were installed inside the ice storage, the people had no way of seeing what was happening inside.

The young man said in surprise, "How did the ice storage door close?"

The woman covered her mouth: "Supervisor Lu wouldn't have been…"

"Don't talk nonsense!" The old man interrupted the woman and adjusted the surveillance footage to 32x speed: "Let's take another look. Maybe they'll come out later."

In a few minutes, the surveillance footage had gone through several hours, but the door still hadn't opened.

The old man stood up: "Those two are strange. Quickly contact the manager!"

…

At this time, Li Chenqiu was completely unaware of this, and was happily enjoying the cumin-sprinkled barbecue.

"Awoo~" Li Chenqiu, like a glutton, swallowed the meat in front of him in one bite, without even chewing, and swallowed it directly.
