#307 - Chapter 306: Questioning in the Underworld
Xiang Nanzhi shook her finger: "It's different. The three major consortiums of the Northern Federation control things secretly, while the three major consortiums of the Southern Federation control things openly.
For example, if the Li Consortium wants a city's mayor to step down, they need to operate behind the scenes and cannot do it publicly. But if it were the Ito Consortium, they would operate directly in the open. Understand?"
Li Chenqiu praised generously: "Understood, as expected of a master of knowledge. By the way, are there any Resurgent organizations similar to the Underworld and the New World in the Southern Federation?"
"There definitely are, but in terms of strength, they are somewhat behind the New World and the Underworld."
"The master of knowledge really knows a lot."
...
The sky was azure, without a single cloud.
City No. 188, this is the only coastal city among cities No. 180-200, and it has direct航lines to the Southern Federation.
"Next!"
Inside the spacious and bright living room, Xiang Nanzhi crossed her legs and sat on the soft sofa.
Knock knock knock!
A man in a black suit knocked on the open door and walked cautiously to the front of Xiang Nanzhi.
"Hello." The middle-aged man showed a standard smile.
Xiang Nanzhi gestured for him to sit down.
The middle-aged man handed his resume to Xiang Nanzhi and sat properly on the chair.
Xiang Nanzhi picked up the man's resume and glanced at it casually: "Introduce yourself."
"Hello, I graduated from Dongjian University... Southern Federation Language Level 8... I have worked in the Southern Federation..."
Xiang Nanzhi interrupted him: "Alright, I know you're very capable, no need to continue. Next, I'll give you a question to test you, listen carefully."
"Okay, ask away." The middle-aged man nodded with a smile.
Xiang Nanzhi sat up straight and asked seriously: "Are you fucking looking for a beating, is your mouth on your ass, can you speak human language? How do you say this in Southern Federation Language?"
The middle-aged man's mouth twitched: "Um... this..."
"You don't know? Then I'll change one." Xiang Nanzhi cleared her throat: "You're tired of living, daring to act like a big shot in front of me, you want to die, don't you! Translate this sentence."
The middle-aged man looked embarrassed: "This 'you' and 'tired of living', the books..."
Xiang Nanzhi put down the man's resume: "Thank you, you're good, but we're not suitable, next."
...
The interview was in full swing, and translators proficient in Southern Federation Language entered the room one after another, only to come out with their tails between their legs.
It wasn't that their abilities were lacking, but that Xiang Nanzhi's questions were too tricky.
Which school would teach students swear words? Wasn't this just purely making things difficult?
You fucking, you, looking for a beating...
Would these words appear in textbooks, would they?
Inside the room, Xiang Nanzhi rubbed her temples, her brow furrowed with fatigue.
Was it really that difficult to find a translator with some bite?
"Sigh~~~" Xiang Nanzhi sighed deeply: "Next."
Soon, a boy with black-framed glasses, dressed neatly, walked up to Xiang Nanzhi and handed over his resume with both hands.
Xiang Nanzhi glanced at the resume and said in surprise: "16 years old?"
"Yes, I stopped studying after finishing junior high school. Although I am young, my Southern Federation Language is very good. My neighbor is from the Southern Federation, and I often communicate with him."
The boy hurriedly explained, afraid that Xiang Nanzhi would pass him over because of his age.
"I'll test you, is your brain short-circuited, how do you say this in Southern Federation Language?"
"...あなたの脳はワットではありません... Is that right?" The boy said uncertainly.
Xiang Nanzhi stroked her chin, nodded profoundly, and was about to continue asking something when Li Chenqiu walked into the room with a confused look.
"Yo, you're back." Xiang Nanzhi raised her hand in greeting.
Li Chenqiu glanced at the boy, then shifted his gaze to Xiang Nanzhi: "Just looking for a translator, and you've been interviewing all morning?"
"You don't understand the intricacies involved." Xiang Nanzhi waved her hand, signaling Li Chenqiu to move away.
Li Chenqiu ignored Xiang Nanzhi and turned to look at the boy: "What did he ask you just now?"
The boy crossed his hands in front of his abdomen and honestly replied: "How do you say 'is your brain short-circuited' in Southern Federation Language."
Li Chenqiu's face darkened: "Xiang Nanzhi, can't you ask something normal?"
"You're too foolish. We're not going to the Southern Federation for tourism this time, we're going to save people, so we need someone who..."
"Be normal, we're going to save people, not to curse people."
"You..." Xiang Nanzhi pointed at Li Chenqiu, speechless.
Li Chenqiu looked at the boy: "Hello, how do you say 'where is the toilet nearby' in Southern Federation Language?"
The boy replied fluently: "こんにちは、この辺りのトイレはどこにありますか。"
"Can you stay away from me, you are too ugly?"
"あなたは醜すぎる、私から離れていられますか?"
"What is your name?"
"My name is Ye Yu."
"Go back and pack your things, we're leaving tonight."
...
The night was deep, and a large cruise ship was sailing at a constant speed on the sea. Looking down from the sky, this cruise ship looked like a giant sea beast.
Its enormous size exuded a逼迫ing pressure. The low-intelligence Resurgent beasts in the sea were frightened and scurried away when they saw the cruise ship from afar.
This was the cruise ship that Li Chenqiu was on—the Sailing Far Away!
This cruise ship was 332 meters long, 67 meters wide, and had a total tonnage of a terrifying 220,000 tons, capable of accommodating 5,000 passengers!
To ensure the safety of the航line, this cruise ship was also equipped with the Federation's most advanced large-caliber舰炮, anti-aircraft missiles, underwater weapons...
Not only that, the captain of this cruise ship was also an Eight Forbidden Heavenly Mandate user, making the safety index very high!
The most ordinary inner舱三人房.
"You have so much money, can't you get a sea view room with a balcony? What is this, there's not even a window. I was thinking of falling asleep watching the sea, what can I see here!"
Xiang Nanzhi slammed her backpack on the bed.
"It's enough to have a bed to lie on. Does sleeping in the best room allow you to reach the Southern Federation one step ahead of others? Don't be so delicate, you have to spend money where it counts."
"What?" Xiang Nanzhi pointed at herself: "Can't I be the cutting edge?"
"You are the cutting edge, go live in the top-level cabin!" Li Chenqiu waved his hand.
"You..."
"Why are you looking at me? Does my existence hinder you from upgrading your cabin? I don't think I'm holding your leg, begging you to stay here with me." Li Chenqiu spread his hands innocently.
"You're really cheap!"
Xiang Nanzhi gritted her back teeth and kicked Li Chenqiu.
Bang!
"Can you be more mature!"
"Try being a smart ass again!"
While the two were fighting, Ye Yu was sitting on his bed, widening his eyes, and trembling his fingers as he flipped through his phone.
