I Can Infinitely Synthesize Transcendent Genes

Chapter 547: 【414】Advance by retreating, I want all the benefits! (Asking for monthly tickets and subscriptions)_1

Night fell.

The back mountain of the Jiang family was alive with the buzz of activity.

Zhong Xuan stood by, with numerous business documents placed in front of him.

These were all developmental directions given by Pei Jinye.

“Master, do you have any other orders?”

Pei Jinye circled a surname on the list.

...

“The Wu Family’s channels must be seized.

“Yes.”

For a long time to come, the Jiang family would lay a hidden net throughout Central State under his control.

It would all serve him alone!

Zhong Xuan bowed and took his leave.

The maids tidied up, their heads bowed as they filed out.

Pei Jinye stood in the small courtyard of the back mountain.

The extraction of the spirit ore this time was much faster than before the rollback.

With his strategic planning, there was no need to worry about the spirit ore for the time being.

Although most things were progressing along a predetermined trajectory, he had already intervened to change several matters.

As for whether this would lead to a butterfly effect, that would have to be left to fate.

With a wave of his hand,

the spirit stones shattered, turning into streams of spiritual energy that entered the Bluebird and the Giant Python, making them stagger as if drunk.

Pei Jinye also called up his own attribute panel.

…

[Vitality Value]: 890-918 K;

[Stamina]: 899-917;

[Psychic Power]: 878-920;

Just one step away from the peak.

Pei Jinye quickly withdrew his gaze and began to practice “Big Dream for Thousands of Autumns”.

…

A quiet night passed.

In the blink of an eye, morning arrived.

The morning breeze, carrying a chill, rustled through the courtyard’s flowers and plants.

A pitch-black figure suddenly sprang out.

It circled around Pei Jinye, whimpering.

It seemed to be complaining about not seeing Pei Jinye for a long time.

Pei Jinye couldn’t help but chuckle and rubbed the head of Big Black Charcoal. Before the rollback, he had purposely instructed and sent the creature to Sun and Moon Mountain for special training.

Now, it seemed somewhat frail.

Big Black Charcoal, which had been joyfully approaching Pei Jinye, suddenly sensed something “malicious” and cast a suspicious look at Pei Jinye.

However, the smile on his face was incredibly warm.

The Big Black Dog couldn’t resist wrapping itself around his legs.

Pei Jinye revealed a devilishly benevolent smile, “Enjoy the last of your happy life.”

The voice of Gu Wutong came from behind, “Old Pei… holy shit!”

Gu Wutong was startled by the Big Black Dog in front of Pei Jinye and looked at Pei Jinye in disbelief, “When did this dog get so big? Is this a Tibetan mastiff?”

“Old Zhang from the logistics department is quite fond of it,” Pei Jinye deflected to Old Zhang.

Gu Wutong clicked his tongue in wonder.

Pei Jinye changed the subject, “You’re early today. Got a mission?”

“Early? I’m always early,” Gu Wutong chuckled shamelessly, then said, “No joke, have you heard about what happened in Storm City?”

“I know, some big shot died,” Pei Jinye shook his head, indicating he didn’t care about such matters.

Gu Wutong lamented, “I’ve been thinking all night and still can’t figure out what we’re really pursuing. Even powerful figures can be gone in an instant…”

Pei Jinye gave him a look and then looked away, saying nothing.

Gu Wutong noticed his silence and curiously asked, “What are your thoughts?”

“I think you’ve had too much to eat,” Pei Jinye responded tersely, striding towards the elevator.

Gu Wutong thick-facedly followed, “I understand what you mean, but I’ve been feeling uneasy lately.”

Pei Jinye turned his head, “I suggest you see a psychologist. I’m not joking or mocking you, I’m serious.”

Gu Wutong was taken aback, then nodded, “Alright, I’ll go see one today.”

They chatted sporadically.

When they entered the dining hall, Zhou Ye immediately waved, “Hey Jinye.”

Pei Jinye nodded in greeting and walked over with Gu Wutong.

The conversation drifted again towards Xu Shanwu.

Brother Bi and Pei Jinye exchanged glances and shared a tacit smile.

Soon after breakfast,

Pei Jinye followed Brother Bi and Zhou Ye to accept their mission.

According to the preset trajectory, Ms. Xu Jing would come to announce his promotion this afternoon.

For the special advisor of the Investigation Team, Pei Jinye was well aware that it was but charity from the Cui Family.

Intent on making him blindly carry out orders, to become a disposable pawn.

Pei Jinye retracted his gaze.

He would take the benefits, but selling himself out was out of the question.

…

During patrol.

“Buzz buzz.”

Pei Jinye received a message from Silver Art.

[We’ve encountered members of the Sand Flame Association.]

[Should we make a move?]

[Shall I follow them for now?]

[Hong Luo is on the way, but I don’t know if she’ll make it in time…]

[I can’t get in touch with Lou Hai, and right now, in Da Peng City, you’re the only high-ranking official around, what should we do?]

[You probably think I’m rambling again.]

…

“…”

Pei Jinye replied with a message, “No need for action, take care of yourself.”

[Understood. I’ll hide for now.] Silver Art replied.

The conversation ended quietly.

Pei Jinye sat silently in the passenger seat.

Ten minutes later, the patrol ended, and Brother Bi instinctively wanted to smoke but couldn’t find his cigarettes after patting down his pockets. He tapped the back of the driver’s seat, “Got any on you?”

He was asking Zhou Ye, automatically excluding Pei Jinye, who didn’t smoke.

Zhou Ye also searched, “Didn’t bring any. Didn’t you just buy a pack this morning?”

“Seems like I left it with Old Zhang… I’m craving one, pull over and I’ll buy a pack,” Brother Bi glanced at the convenience store ahead and signaled Zhou Ye to pull over for a moment.

“Brother Bi, grab a bottle of water for me too, Jinye, what do you want to drink?” Zhou Ye turned to ask.

Pei Jinye shook his head, his words succinct and to the point, “Don’t feel like drinking.”

Brother Bi immediately glanced at Zhou Ye and grumbled, “You’re always the one with issues.”

But on his return, he had three bottles of water in hand, passing one to Pei Jinye.

“Brother Bi, are you favoring him?” Zhou Ye said, sounding somewhat aggrieved.

Brother Bi chuckled and cursed, “Does Little Pei need looking after, or do you?”

Zhou Ye subconsciously felt there was nothing wrong with the statement, but then the memory of Pei Jinye’s terrifying combat abilities surfaced… He cast an aggrieved look at Brother Bi.

“Fine, I’ll just be a good driver.”

Zhou Ye was about to drive off.

Suddenly, gunfire erupted in the distance, and both men tensed up instantly.

“Brother Bi…” before Zhou Ye could finish, Brother Bi hurriedly cut him off, “I can hear it… Headquarters, headquarters, calling for backup. A gunfight has occurred on Qin Yuan Road 128, please call the nearest team for support immediately.”

After speaking, he looked at Zhou Ye, “First, reverse the car.”

Zhou Ye complied.

Once they backed out, he stepped on the gas, ready to retreat at any moment.

Who would have thought Brother Bi would mutter softly, “Check your gear.”

Pei Jinye nodded, holding his briefcase. @@novelbin@@

Seeing this, Brother Bi immediately commanded, “Out of the car.”

After exiting the car, they activated their Mech Bodies.

Zhou Ye was taken aback and hurriedly followed suit, already having activated his Mech Body, fearing being ambushed and stabbed from the shadows.

However, he was still confused, “Brother Bi, aren’t we retreating?”

“Retreat my ass…” Brother Bi held back the last word, scanning the houses on both sides, “This is a family residence. Most of them are widows. Can we retreat with a clear conscience right now?”

Zhou Ye had not realized this earlier, but after looking at the houses on both sides, he nodded and said in a low voice, “Is this a vendetta killing?”

“Let’s go and see. You two follow me, and remember to turn on your Law Enforcement Instruments.”

“Understood.”

Pei Jinye followed behind Brother Bi, having already activated his Law Enforcement Instrument; the three of them quickly rushed forward.

Gunfire was crackling from the entrance of the alley.

Zhou Ye ducked his head.

Brother Bi hesitated, but still took up the loudspeaker, “Attention inside, you are surrounded. I advise you to lay down your weapons and come out with your heads in your hands.”

The gunfire from within seemed to diminish slightly.

On Pei Jinye’s Law Enforcement Recorder, a figure appeared, brandishing a gun and suddenly firing in their direction.

Brother Bi swiftly pulled Pei Jinye and Zhou Ye to the side for cover.

The wall was pierced through, shattering all over, with dust and debris billowing outwards.

Zhou Ye spat out a mouthful of dirt, furious, “They’re so damn arrogant, dammit!”

Bullet marks appeared on the Mech Body but soon restored to their smooth and even original state.

Brother Bi turned to Pei Jinye, “How confident are you?”

“There are quite a few of them; I’ll need cover,” Pei Jinye assessed, eyeing the figures in the alley ahead.

He didn’t plan to reveal his full strength.

Executing the plan by the book would suffice.

Otherwise, if his skills were exposed, who knows how Cui Min, that “highly astute” old councilman, would scheme against him.

“Zhou Ye, the two of us will cover Little Pei,” Brother Bi called out.

Zhou Ye nodded and quickly got to his feet.

The trio’s small squad engaged in battle together for the first time.

Brother Bi’s marksmanship was decent, and he had a good grasp of timing; his actions immediately suppressed the enemy.

Zhou Ye fired intermittently from the side, mostly holding up the large shield for defense.

Pei Jinye took a detour around the side.

A three-dimensional structure of the alley had already formed in his mind.

…

“What did he say?” Little Red Luo asked Silver Art.

“He told us to retreat,” Silver Art replied, his voice calm as he effortlessly sliced incoming bullets with a flash of silver light in his hand.

Little Red Luo’s earth spikes in front of her crumbled after being hit, and she felt agitated, “How did the Sand Flame Association show up here again?”

“Look for a chance to retreat,” Silver Art said, also straining.

He had intended to retreat after receiving Pei Jinye’s message, but the enemy had actively followed and set up an ambush.

“The firepower is intense; I need to suggest that headquarters send more troops,” Little Red Luo conjured an earthen shield, and it was obvious that a volley of bullets struck it, pocking it like a hornet’s nest.

“Bang!”

The ground suddenly collapsed.

The gunners of the Sand Flame Association were caught off guard.

Silver Art and Little Red Luo seized the opportunity to withdraw quickly.

Shortly after the two made a swift exit,

there were no pursuers behind them.

“Just now…” Little Red Luo hesitated.

She had invoked the Earth Element, but it seemed that it was not strong enough to cause such an effect.

Silver Art clearly did not think much of it.

As the sound of alarms grew louder around them, dozens of floating cars appeared, and a large number of armed police showed up.

The scene made Little Red Luo gape on the spot.

“Lucky we ran first, or we’d be caught in this net…”

She then chuckled, “The Sand Flame Association fools are done for.”

Silver Art glanced around and then looked away, “Let’s go home for noodles.”

…

Today’s headline in Da Peng City: A criminal gang kidnapped the family of a hero intending to seek revenge but was bravely rescued by law enforcement officers.

Outside the hospital operating room.

Brother Bi and Zhou Ye were still covered in blood.

Worry was etched on their faces.

“How is he…?”

“He’ll be fine! He must be!”

…

In the hospital room at that moment.

Pei Jinye had hypnotized everyone in the operating room.

Feigning injury to avoid scrutiny, this was his most effective method for now.

If Central State wanted to execute a fishing plan next, surely they would not expect an injured person to participate, would they?

Pei Jinye narrowed his eyes.

He was not entirely certain.

He took out the Divination Turtle Shell.

Pei Jinye skillfully tossed it.

[Divination: Fortune and Misfortune are Intertwined]

The Turtle Shell was bright red!

“??? How should I interpret this divination???”
