A powerful aura condensed into a sharp qi on Xiang Beifei's body, landing silently on Ma Kainian.
When Ma Kainian saw Xiang Beifei, his heart trembled, frightened by the dreadful aura emanating from him.
Xiang Beifei was rumored to be capable of killing a Meridian Opening stage One-Armed Crab with a single punch, and his appearance here was no mere jest.
Ma Kainian steadied his mind and cursed silently, "After all, I am an officer of the alliance. Even if this kid is famous, he's still just a civilian without power or status, he should be the one afraid, not me!"
"Xiang Beifei, such a big shot," Ma Kainian said sarcastically.
Xiang Beifei said nothing, gave a dismissive glance, and then walked towards Kong Daming, asking, "I just saw the voicemail, how is my grandfather?"
"I don't know. He seemed unwell a moment ago, so I helped him upstairs to rest. He's upstairs now," Kong Daming replied.
"Understood, I'll go see him."
Without another word, Xiang Beifei headed for the stairs.
Seeing that he was being ignored, Ma Kainian was quite annoyed.
"Hmph! Even basic courtesy is absent now..."
Xiang Beifei said bluntly.
Ma Kainian's mind went blank, and then, almost involuntarily, he lay down and indeed rolled away from the scene.
Kong Daming and Zhang Xiang were shocked as they watched Ma Kainian rolling away on the ground, completely stunned at the moment.
Ma Kainian actually... just rolled away like that?
This turn of events was completely unexpected.
"Why patrol the archives, anyway? Who's going to break into the archives for fun? If you ask me, even if we didn't check for a year, it probably wouldn't matter."
Zhou Guan lazily placed his hands behind his head, following behind Sun Zhong. He wasn't very interested in this job, muttering all the way.
Sun Zhong walked to the third floor and patrolled along a row of rooms.
[You patrolled the N-level Talent Review Department, Patrol Points +2]
[You patrolled the N-level Talent Dispatch Department, Patrol Points +2]
Sun Zhong circled twice in each empty room and then pressed a button on the wall to ensure the alarm system was functioning before exiting the room.
[You patrolled the main archive entrance, Patrol Points +5]
Just then, Zheng Xing had a thought, quickly pulled out his phone to video call his son, and then asked, "Son, you said you've seen 'Xiang Beifei before. Is this person Xiang Beifei?"
During the initial freshmen competition, although students from the elite schools were not physically present, there was live broadcasting available, and anyone with eyes could recognize him.
Although Zheng Xing's son attended Jizhou University, he had also seen Xiang Beifei. The moment he saw Xiang Beifei, he excitedly exclaimed, "Yes, that's him! The genius who trampled the SSR from Qingzhou University underfoot! Dad, you actually met him? My God!"
That was the legendary genius!
"You really are that Xiang Beifei!" Zheng Xing was also stunned.
His son had mentioned the freshman competition to him before the holiday, and at the time, he had been quite impressed with Xiang Beifei. Never did he imagine that he would so coincidentally encounter such a great genius today!
After a moment, he quickly collected himself and excitedly said, "He is Xiang Beifei, no doubt. My son from Jizhou University has seen him!"
Xiang Beifei set this matter aside for now, asking, "By the way, Uncle Kong, are there any houses for rent nearby? We're thinking of moving over."
"A house? Yes, there are. You should have moved over here a long time ago. The old man has always talked about saving money for your missions or something. Why the sudden change of mind now?" Kong Daming asked.
"Xiaofei has grown up, the house is too shabby; he won't find a wife," Xiang Qingde said seriously.
"Hahaha, that's true," Kong Daming nodded.
But Lu Hong disagreed, "How could that be! If you truly like someone, would you really care about the house?"
"Still, it's better to live in a nice place. The old house was a bit too dark," Kong Daming said, "Leave this to me; I remember the family that moved out from my floor, just two doors away from mine, right across. Moving over would be good too, easier to look after each other."
"When are you planning to open Uncle Kong's restaurant?" Xiang Beifei then asked
How exactly the One-Armed Crab desolate beast appeared was still under investigation. Currently, Xiang Beifei suspected someone who had not yet come to light.
The man who had disguised as an SR-level clerk. That day, before the desolate beast appeared, he had gone somewhere unknown, and Xiang Beifei wanted to see if Xiao Sheng would return to work.
"The day after tomorrow! The staff has been asking too, come to speak of it, I need to get in touch with those staff members; we've been closed for so long," Kong Daming said.
"Then I'll go to the wholesale market tomorrow since our food supply was cut off; we need to renegotiate with them," Xiang Qingde said.
Kong Daming hurriedly said, "No need, Uncle Xiang, you rest; I'll handle it."
"It's been such a long break; I need some activity. I know that place well, and with the reopening, there's a lot of work in the restaurant. Many customers have made reservations waiting for your opening; you'll be busy. I'll go tomorrow," Xiang Qingde insisted, waving his hand.
Unable to persuade him, Kong Daming could only agree.
When Xiang Beifei returned home, he even specifically chatted with his grandfather in front of the living room camera, explaining why he wanted to move, plainly stating that he was now earning money and didn't want to live there anymore.
