Chapter 518: Chapter 518
Asheng listened to Yun Ran making the call the whole time, and now he was a bit dazed: Was it resolved so easily? And did their identities get verified in the process?
Their identities were in a gray area; if they weren’t caught, it was fine, but if they were, encountering someone persistent could be very troublesome.
But now, the young lady just made a call, and the other side released them smoothly? Just because the young lady vouched for them?
Asheng swallowed with difficulty; they seemed to have underestimated the young lady’s influence in the Special Administration Bureau.
If someone from the Special Administration Bureau were here and knew his thoughts, they’d definitely roll their eyes.
Might even call him a bumpkin! With Yun Ran’s guarantee, why wouldn’t they release people?
If anyone dared to challenge her, well, Yun Ran could wipe them out directly without the Bureau’s intervention, and their fate would be worse!
As the sky darkened, Yun Ran had no intention of waiting around on the mountain.
She directly looked at Old Liu: "Back to the hotel!"
Old Liu immediately brought the car over, and Asheng also quickly scrambled up from the ground.
The more Asheng realized the young lady’s power, the more he recoiled; he dared not act out, nor voice any opinions, and obediently took the front passenger seat.
As Yun Ran and the others neared the hotel, Little Paperman was already waiting with several injured people on the road to the hotel.
When Asheng saw his companions, he twisted his neck to look outside the window and then at Yun Ran.
Evidently, the current situation was shaking his perception, leaving him somewhat unresponsive, as if his throat was clogged.
Seeing this foolish Asheng, Yun Ran was clearly a bit disdainful.
"Aren’t you going to check it out!"
With Yun Ran’s reminder, Asheng seemed to snap out of it, clumsily preparing to get out of the car, but couldn’t open the door no matter what.
Watching someone’s embarrassment is unethical; he gently helped Asheng open the car door.
Asheng immediately looked at Old Liu with gratitude: "Thank you."
Then, he stumbled and crawled out of the car, heading towards the roadside.
The people lying on the ground were somewhat bewildered too; weren’t they fleeing for their lives?
Yet they didn’t know why, suddenly everything went black, and upon waking up, they were here.
Just as they were panicking a bit, a palm-sized Little Paperman flew in front of them.
Had they not seen these Little Papermen by the young lady’s side before, they’d probably have been scared out of their wits now.
"Are you the young lady’s Little Paperman?"
Little Paperman proudly crossed his arms, nodded coldly.
At this moment, they saw a luxury car pull up nearby, and soon, Asheng awkwardly got out of the car.
The leading man instantly had a gloomy face, embarrassed in front of the young lady, worrying about her opinion of them!
"Boss, how are you guys!"
If not for the Little Paperman’s presence, the person called boss would want to slap Asheng; being so immature at this age!
Pressing down his newly risen anger: "Is the young lady in the car?"
Asheng quickly nodded.
The leader immediately dusted off his clothes and respectfully walked towards the car.
The car window lowered at this moment, and the leader saw Yun Ran seemingly leaning back on the rear seat, looking a bit tired.
He just glanced briefly and immediately bowed his head: "Thank you, young lady, for coming to our aid."
Yun Ran responded casually: "I was paid."
This seemed a bit distant, but the leader dared not have any objections.
Sometimes, being able to pay for services is already highly respectful; the scariest part is when money isn’t accepted.
Moreover, their money, Mister’s money, originally belongs to the young lady.
It’s merely the left hand paying the right; the young lady actually loses out.
"The people caught by the Special Administration Bureau will be sent over soon."
After saying this, Yun Ran’s gaze swept over softly, appearing plain but exuding an oppressive feeling that deterred any rashness.
"I’ve vouched for you all. Please behave and don’t embarrass me!" ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ novel fire.net
The leader heard these words, body jolting fiercely, eyes filled with shock, never expecting the young lady to be willing to vouch for them.
Over the years, it’s not that they didn’t want legal identities; it’s just that the identity verification for Xuan Sect members is very strict, requiring guarantees to prevent Evil Cultivators from infiltrating.
Many of the Xuan Sect black marketeers often lack identity protection, making them easily categorized as Evil Cultivators when doing similar things.
"L-Lady, are you serious?"
"I’m offering you this one chance; if you mess up, don’t blame me for being ruthless!"
Obviously, Yun Ran didn’t want to say much; she was giving these people a chance, not because she was a saint interfering in others’ business.
She simply felt that without an official identity, many of their actions were prone to criticism.
Yun Ran is currently in the limelight, easily targeted, and her association with Shen Jun is not secret.
If caught up in those messy matters, even if she’s fearless, it’s genuinely bothersome.
Hence, it’s better to prevent this by ’rounding up’ these people in advance.
At this point, the car window closed.
Others watched as the luxury car drove farther away, the Little Paperman vanished too, while the leader retained his stunned expression.
"Boss, what did the young lady say?"
The person called boss finally turned to Asheng: "Tell me everything that happened after you approached the young lady!"
Asheng looked at the boss’s demeanor, somewhat understanding why he was so shocked earlier.
After Asheng recounted the earlier events, the others also paused.
"You’re saying the young lady vouched for us at the Special Administration Bureau?"
Asheng nodded: "Yes."
While Asheng wasn’t too shocked by the young lady’s guarantee, he was more amazed by how the palm-sized Little Paperman managed to swiftly locate and bring scattered companions here.
But seeing everyone’s current state, Asheng cleverly chose not to ask this question.
"Does that mean in the future we’ll have legitimate status at the Special Administration Bureau too?"
They had struggled for over a decade, unable to successfully register with the Special Administration Bureau, and now, it was accomplished so easily?
How unreal, like a pie falling from the sky, isn’t it?
Just then, they saw a vehicle from the Special Administration Bureau approaching.
