Chapter 236: Chapter 236: Having Money to Earn but No Life to Spend It

"What do you mean by this?"

The woman, with an appearance of grievous distress, took several steps backward, her posture radiating utter aggrievement at a glance.

Chen Yu, however, paid no heed to that, stepping forward directly to grasp the woman's wrist.

"Do I need to spell it out more clearly for you? Let's set aside those lives lost in the cemetery for a moment. Just for poisoning the soup you gave me just now, I can have you arrested."

The woman's eyes suddenly darkened, and before Chen Yu could react, her other hand reached towards her waist.

But all her movements were fully recorded by the system, presented vividly in Chen Yu's mind.

By the time she made her move, Chen Yu had already caught her other hand and wrested the knife from her grip.

"Those were some pretty practiced moves! You must be a professional assassin."

The woman's breath turned ragged, her gaze at Chen Yu filled with a new edge of terror. She tried to pull her hand free, but Chen Yu's grip was like a vice, tightly clenching her wrist.

"Who exactly are you? What do you want to do?"

Chen Yu sneered, "I'm an unofficial member of the relevant department. Since I've encountered you today, I can only take you with me."

No sooner had he spoken than a loud explosion rang out at the door. Four burly men dashed over from the woods outside, each armed with standardized weapons. seaʀᴄh thё nôᴠel Fire.nёt website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

These men looked ferocious, with distinct facial features. Chen Yu had even seen portraits of two of them before.

At this juncture, he was nearly certain that this group was a gang of accomplices, and that the previous counterfeit cases were their handiwork.

The woman's eyes were full of murderous intent, "Young man, let me advise you to let go at once, or they'll kill you on the spot."

Chen Yu paid no mind, suddenly exerting force with his hands, crushing the woman's wrists, before turning around and snatching up a pair of chopsticks from the table and hurling it out.

Everything happened so fast that the four men hadn't even managed to pull their triggers when the chopsticks already pierced their wrists.

Not only did the weapons fall from their hands, but their arms and shoulders were punctured as well.

Chen Yu let out a sigh of relief and immediately called Zhou Shengtao.

Just as he was about to head to the cemetery in the back mountains to look for evidence, the woman behind him suddenly yelled out.

"Young man, you're so capable and yet you're just an unofficial member. If you followed me, I guarantee you could earn more than ten billion a year!"

Chen Yu looked at the woman with a mocking gaze, as if he had just heard the biggest joke in the world.

"My net worth has already exceeded ten billion long ago, so I don't need to make this kind of life-threatening money with you. Besides, what's wrong with being an unofficial member? At least it's a secure job!"

The woman's eyes widened in disbelief; she couldn't fathom how someone worth more than ten billion would willingly remain an unofficial member.

Before she could grasp the situation, Chen Yu suddenly caught her neck and pressed lightly, causing her to faint.

Zhou Shengtao was patrolling nearby when he received Chen Yu's call and hurried over immediately, only to be left gaping at the sight of one man and four women lying on the ground.

Only two of these five were confirmed suspects; he had never seen the other three.

Especially this woman, who did not seem local, appeared to be of mixed heritage.

Chen Yu had already reached the back mountain, where the cemetery had been turned into a complete mess. Some of the older graves had been excavated and had new corpses placed in them. Continue your adventure at m|v-l'e -NovelFire.net

When the system scanned all the information into Chen Yu's mind, he felt nauseated.

It was the first time he had ever seen such a scene.

Moreover, these people had even hidden a large amount of gold, jewelry, and cash within the tombs.

As he was analyzing the situation at hand, the two burly men he had seen earlier suddenly ran back, overjoyed.

"After being busy for so long, we can finally leave this damn place. We brothers must have a good time."

"I want to buy a big plane so I can go anywhere in the world, anytime I want to."

...

As the two men were dreaming about their future, they suddenly noticed Chen Yu standing there.

The two men instantly became wary and reached for their weapons at their waists.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" they demanded.

Chen Yu didn't turn around; he just blankly stared at the scene before him, feeling a surge of nameless rage within him.

These graves had been resting in place just fine until these people not only dug them up and ruined them but also filled them with all sorts of trash.

This was intolerable!

Though angry, Chen Yu seemed to have taken on a bit of a dramatic air at the moment.

"My family's ancestral grave is buried here! I just wanted to come up here to pay my respects today, and I didn't expect it to turn out like this. Who has dug up my family's ancestral grave?"

Upon hearing this, the two burly men suddenly felt embarrassed, considering they were solely responsible for the scene in front of them.

The wariness on their faces dissipated, and they put their weapons away. One of the men even took out two gold bars from his person and offered them to Chen Yu.

"Brother, we're setting up a foundation here, and all the graves need to be moved! Unfortunately, the tombs are so ancient that we couldn't find many of the families. Since you've shown up, take these two gold bars as compensation. If it's not enough, I can give you more."

Chen Yu acted as if he had lost all desire to live, looking down at the two gold bars before him.

"These two aren't enough. It should be at least two hundred!"

The two men's eyes widened in shock.

"Damn you! You ungrateful brat, giving you two gold bars is already more face than you deserve, and now you're asking us for two hundred? Believe me, I can make it so you have money but no life to spend it!"

Chen Yu suddenly looked up, "I don't know if I'll have a life to spend this money, but I'm sure you two no longer have a chance to possess these treasures."

The two were taken aback, "Hey, really shameless, aren't you?"

As they prepared to take action, they barely lifted their arms before a series of cracking sounds ensued, and they collapsed to the ground.

Before they could speak, Zhou Shengtao arrived with a large group of people.

However, when Zhou Shengtao and his party arrived, the sight before them completely shocked them, and a few of the new interns who had just started their jobs started to vomit against the nearby trees.
