Chapter 379 Entering The Pond To Catch The Fish.

Shi Lang and Crystal put on lavish clothes, while the young man donned a black tuxedo, Crystal was looking ravishing in an ocean-blue gown. She had a faint blush on her face because her dress was too seductive, and if not for the warning by Shi Lang, and tough mental training, let alone the men, even the women in the ace division would have fallen for her charm.

Shi Lang looked at Crystal indifferently and said, "Let's go."

The girl nodded and followed behind him. However, Shi Lang placed his hand on her waist and said, "Calm down, we need to look like the part of it."

Crystal nodded, as they moved out of the hotel and got on a pre-booked vehicle they hired for a taxi. The girl suddenly asked, "Boss, what if sister-in-law finds out?"

Shi Lang smiled and said, "I already told her that I will be needing your help. I have told you the plan back at the hotel. This is the last chance if you have any doubts."

Crystal nodded and asked, "Boss, how will you identify the person involved with the mercenaries?"

Shi Lang looked at her and said, "I have the ability to sense things. If I use it with my spiritual sense, then I can create a three-dimensional map inside my brain. This map also allows me to find out who is keeping an eye on us."

Crystal was surprised and said, "I see, you truly have the skills boss."

Shi Lang shook his head and focused on the ride. The rest of the way they did not talk, and sorted their thoughts. Soon, they arrived at the location and Shi Lang said, "If things get physical, and you are not confident to move against the people, then keep your head low and I will deal with the rest."

The girl nodded and got off the vehicle. Shi Lang came around and placed his arm around her waist, as Crystal leaned against his chest. The two people walked inside the club with confidence and were checked several times.

After the security checks, the two were allowed to enter the place. Loud music and colorful lights greeted the couple and Shi Lang said, "Clubs are all the same everywhere."

Crystal nodded and said, "Back at home we have even louder music. You won't believe it."

Shi Lang shook his head as the two of them entered inside. He communicated telepathically and said, "From now on, we will only talk telepathically. Okay?"

Crystal replied, "Okay boss."

She was a fox, so cunning was in her innate nature. The girl did not nod her head as they moved in. Shi Lang looked around when he stopped and spotted a man waving his hand to him. This person was a native, he was the weapons dealer that Shi Lang had been dealing with.

He tugged Crystal's waist gently and the two moved in that direction. The girl asked, 'Boss, this guy is fishy.'

Shi Lang replied, 'Did you notice his swaying antenna?'

Crystal replied, 'Yes, they are a common trait among these people.'

The two arrived at the table where the man was standing and Shi Lang shook hands with him. He said, "Mister Revelo, glad to meet you."

The other party revealed a similar enthusiasm and said, "Nice to meet you too Mister Ace. Please have a seat."

Shi Lang nodded and said, "Thank you, I apologize, as you can see, my wonderful companion, took her time to get ready for the night."

Revelo laughed and said, "It's fine, I can understand. By the way, you did not introduce her to me."

Shi Lang replied, "Pardon me for the lack of manners, this is my companion, Miss Estrella."

Crystal smiled at the guy and his eyes opened wide for a second, before returning to normal. She told Shi Lang, 'Boss, he is under control.'

Shi Lang nodded with a smile and asked, "Mister Revelo, we are both busy people, can you tell me where the stuff is?"

Revelo replied with a goofy face, "All the stock was ceased by the Mercenaries. You will only get troubled if you went to look for them. One of them is sitting on the second floor, and paying attention to you from the moment you approached me."

Shi Lang nodded and said, "Then you should pretend to take us to the decision room, and we will not hit back until it becomes necessary or that person attacks us first."

Revelo nodded and said, "Come with me, I will take you to the room I booked."

Shi Lang nodded and the couple followed behind him. This would have happened sooner or later but they accelerated the process. Crystal took control of the guy quickly for this reason only. The longer they waited, the longer they will be prone to variables in the situation. Shi Lang did not like variables in his plans, as they increased the risk factor.

Revelo bought the two of them to the discussion room and sat down silently. Shi Lang poured himself and Crystal a glass of native liquor and waited, after twenty minutes, he said, "Crystal, get ready."

The girl nodded and started dancing in the center of the room. Shi Lang gulped a mouthful of saliva as he watched her. She was capable of hooking the souls of the people. It had been just a few moments when the door opened. It was a three men team party, and the people were surprised to see a girl dancing in the center of the room.

The three people moved closer to the girl, and suddenly, the girl opened her eyes and she stopped. The three men froze and all of a sudden. Crystal smiled and said, "Do you surrender your souls to me?"

Her voice was so silky that Shi Lang almost said yes, thanks to his spiritual sutra, he survived. However, the three people were not this fortunate. They said, "Yes."

The next moment, they stood up like knights in service. Crystal sighed as she sat down beside Shi Lang and said, "Boss, they are under."

Shi Lang patted her head and said, "Kid, you did well, almost took me under too."

Crystal chuckled and said, "Thank you, boss."

Shi Lang said, "Ask them where is the hideout."

Crystal asked, but the reply was surprising, "We do not know, the only one who knows about the hideout is the leader. He takes us all thereafter putting us in cryo-sleep."

Shi Lang smacked his thigh and said, "Such a scary bastard this guy is. Not trusting even his people. No wonder they survived this long."

Crystal nodded and said, "What can we do now boss?"

Shi Lang smiled and said, "Of course, now we use my way."

Crystal was surprised when she saw Shi Lang placing his palm over the head of one of the mercenaries. He closed his eyes and the next moment, his fingers glowed, and the mercenary shivered. A few minutes later, Shi Lang sighed and said, "They all were placed under Cryo-sleep, however, they still had some memories of the hide-out's scenery. We will need to search a planet rich in a mineral called bodix."

Crystal stood up and said, "Bodix, is that not a mineral used in mecha suits of the Ikeras clan."

Shi Lang tilted his head and asked, "Tell me more."

Crystal nodded and said, "Ikeras has a mecha suit that is exclusive to their clan, also this mecha needs Bodix, this mineral is used to make the specialized camouflage effect on the mecha. Boss, the Ikeras have been controlling the supply of this material very strictly. They must know where this mineral is found."

Shi Lang nodded, and said, "This is very tricky, but I like it."

He picked up his communicator and called Harley. The lady accepted the call in a few minutes and said with a grumpy tone, "You better have a good reason for disturbing me at this hour."

Shi Lang smiled and said, "Beauty Harley, please arrest any high-ranking Ikeras, I want to know where can we find Bodix in this galaxy. This is the only clue we have about the Mercenaries."

Harley opened her eyes wide and said, "Have you gone mad? This arrest will mean picking a war with Ikeras. This information will not be available to any low-level member."

Shi Lang nodded and said, "So, leak the news of my location to that old bastard, he will come to hunt me and I will beat his ass and get the info. Okay, bye. The connection is not very safe."

Harley opened his eyes wide and wanted to say something when the call was disconnected. She took a deep breath and said, "This guy does not take me seriously."

Still, she stood up and began to work on the thing Shi Lang asked.

...

Shi Lang walked out of the room with Crystal and said, "Can you erase their memories as well?"

The girl nodded and asked, "But the maximum I can do is fifteen days."

Shi Lang shrugged and said, "Well, one week is enough."

With that they had entered the pond to catch the fish, and this pond was deep.
