Chapter 209: The Aftermath

Finn Lewis drove towards the racetrack. As for Kay Lee, he had naturally dropped her off at the hotel and then left. Otherwise, what else could he do? Eat her? Finn wouldn’t mind giving that a try, but damn those zero chances! He wasn’t getting the opportunity at all.

Not long after he left, he received a call from Prince. “What are you doing?” Prince asked as soon as he picked up the phone.

“Nothing much, just going to negotiate a contract.” Finn shrugged.

“Seriously, Mr. Finn, come on! You’ve walked off with the girl, why not strike while the iron is hot and book a room at the hotel instead of going to negotiate a contract? You’re setting yourself up for a lifetime of singledom.” Prince sounded speechless.

“Damn, how did you know that?” Finn rolled his eyes.

“Never mind how I know. Do you know what this situation is called, Mr. Finn?” Prince sounded exasperated.

“What?”

“I remember having an online friend whose screen name was ‘Happy to Be Just Friends With My Crush’. But deep in his heart, he always wanted to be more than just ‘friends with benefits’. Mr. Finn, you need to step up your game! You’re not even halfway there!” Prince burst into laughter.

“Get lost.” Finn rolled his eyes, always knowing that Prince never called without a reason. “Is that person you’re talking about actually you in the past?”

“Ha-ha, Mr. Finn, you’re so clever. I just realized how much easier it is to be ‘friends with benefits’ than winning someone’s heart. Hehe, got to go, I’ll hang up now. Got another party tonight. Oh yes, Howard Lee might return to Celeston City in a few days, call him over for a meal if you’re free. That circle of theirs, tsk tsk, such mess.” Prince spoke rapidly.

“Right. Does that guy even have the time?” Finn asked in surprise. Howard Lee was also from their dormitory. However, he had already taken a leave of absence for over a year and the times they met were pitifully few.

“Hmph, he’s my idol. Got to go now, remember to treat my idol well.” Prince said and hung up.

“Sure.” Finn agreed. He had already left Kay Lee’s car at the hotel, so naturally the car he was driving now was Olivia Thatcher’s.

Upon reaching the racetrack, Finn didn’t go inside but turned into a nearby park. He parked the car and casually walked in. Upon reaching a secluded clump of trees, two brawny men were waiting outside. They bowed and said, “Young Master” as Finn approached.

“Did you catch them all?” Finn nodded.

“Yes.” The burly man on the left responded, leading Finn to nod again and walk in. Although he had accepted the task, he didn’t want to overly provoke Bryski Miller today. However, if you step out of the circle when everyone is working within it, then it’s inevitable that conflicts will arise. Today’s event was still acceptable as Finn was just trying to provoke him.

“Mr…Mr. Finn.” Upon seeing Finn enter, the five men inside immediately knelt down. No visible injuries could be seen on their bodies. but Finn had faith in

the raiding party’s professionalism.

“Start talking.” Finn squatted down in front of them.

“It… was Bryski Miller who hired us… The plan was to kidnap Kay Lee once today’s mission was over. The relevant routes have already been investigated for us,” the man in charge stuttered.

“Less nonsense. What else? The crucial part?” Finn’s face was cold. If it weren’t for this matter, he wouldn’t have been decisive in front of so many people. Since they were ready to burn bridges, they couldn’t blame him for being ruthless.

“He told us to… to gang…gang-rape her after kidnapping her, then to record a video and photos of it…and blast them on the internet.” The leader of the men was close to tears.

Slap slap. Finn gently patted his face and asked, “How much benefit did he provide you?”

“Two million for each person.” The leader said.

“Very well.” Finn Lewis nodded, then stood and walked out. “Mr. Lewis, please spare us! We were wrong, we shouldn’t have taken that business.” Seeing Finn walking out, the men who had been behind him dropped to their knees.

“Their identities have been confirmed?” Finn looked at a burly man at his side.

“They’ve been verified. Three of the men have criminal records. They are all major fugitives from justice – robbery, sexual assault. One of them has committed murder. The other two are local bigshots with no small number of crimes to their name, and they are also wanted by the police.” The burly man spoke motionlessly.

Finn fell into silence. Finn wasn’t sure what to make of it all. Perhaps without his intervention, Bryski Miller wouldn’t have done something so extreme? At the very least, his actions threatened to ruin Kay Lee’s life.

Finn did not ask Zero to investigate Bryski Miller. There seemed to be no point in uncoverdng who he was, as people like him would always end up being blamed for something or other. Sometimes it was really hard to apply the law.

“Take care of them, but make sure I never see them in this world again,” Finn said abruptly, gesturing dismissively with his hand as he headed for the exit.

“Yes, sir!” The burly man immediately bowed in response.

“Mission completed. Extra reward for cultivating an aristocratic demeanor, mission completion rate 160%, mission reward — 1.2 million points. Monthly available funds increased by 50 million, plus ten T2500 model smart disguise robots.” Zero’s voice echoed in the car as Finn got in. The list wasn’t long, but the figures still stunned Finn.

1.2 million points! This was the largest number of points Finn had ever received! Plus, there were ten T2500 model smart disguise robots, and the exchange price for these ten robots alone was a whopping 500,000 points!

Looking at his remaining 1.23 million points, Finn felt as if he had struck it rich. While he had indeed completed a mission today, the reward seemed to be extraordinarily generous.

“Detected that total points exceed 1 million. Do you want to activate the Six-Dimensional Saiyan Crystal?” Zero’s voice rang out again, and Finn suddenly remembered this crystal, the ultra-rare item he had drawn last time. At the time, Zero had asked if Finn wanted to activate it, but since Finn had no points at the time, he couldn’t. But now he had over a million points. Should he activate it now?

“What is the Six-Dimensional Saiyan Crystal?” Finn thought about it, then asked aloud.

“Not enough authority.” Zero responded firmly, causing Finn to almost curse in frustration. Well, wasn’t it Zero who decided whether he had enough authority or not? Finn had the strange feeling Zero was urging him to activate the Six-Dimensional Saiyan Crystal. But what was it, exactly? A trap?

Finn could understand the term “six-dimensional”, but didn’t understand the middle part, nor the last two characters. But even the concept

“six-dimensional” wasn’t clear to him, as he only knew of three dimensions: X, Y, and Z, which, when graphed, created a sense of volume – the volume we describe as length, width and height in a room.

The fourth dimension was the time dimension mentioned in Albert

Ainsworth’s theory. But what on earth was meant by “six-dimensions”? Besides, even if he did have some vague understanding of the concept, the reality might not match his projections.

“Do not activate for now.” After some thought, Finn decided to hold off. After all, he didn’t know what purpose the crystal served. Moreover, from the moment he met Zero, Finn had been constantly pondering about its motive for coming to Earth. Zero had the ability to exchange items that could destroy the entire biosphere on Earth with only a few shots from a cosmic-class warship.

Humans don’t currently have the capability to leave Earth. Do you think humanity has the capacity to resist? Besides, Zero once mentioned that Finn is its spokesperson on Earth. The term “spokesperson” is fairly self-explanatory, but what was he supposed to be speaking about or advocating for? Thus far, everything Finn has received from Zero seemed positive.

Finn decided not to dwell on the things he couldn’t figure out. For now, everything he’d received had been beneficial. The only issue was the Six-Dimensional Saiyan Crystal. He still wasn’t certain of its purpose or function. It made sense to postpone activating it until he found a safer location.

“Young Martin.” At this moment, in a hospital, Bryski Miller had woken up. His expression was deeply gloomy – the humiliation Finn had inflicted on him was something he would remember for a lifetime. In Bryski Miller’s eyes, Finn had become his life-long enemy!

“What is it?” Bryski Miller asked coldly.

“The men we arranged have disappeared.” The person reporting to Bryski Miller was a middle-aged man.

“What do you mean by disappeared? Did they fail?” Bryski Miller’s eyes showed a flash of concern as he responded.

“They have never appeared from the beginning. Kay Lee has already returned to the hotel, probably escorted by Finn Lewis. As for our men, there’s no trace of them. Our previous arrangements have all been voided. I find the situation quite strange, and I’ve already given the order to erase all evidence.” The middle-aged man spoke in a rush.

“Good, you’ve done well. You know how to handle this, eradicate all evidence. Is there a problem with the money?” Bryski Miller’s face did not show any signs of anger. It was as if Finn’s insults had numbed his senses..
