The Downpour Delivered to Your Door

"How do you know about this?"

"Wait! Even if I really owe rent, it's not your place to care!"

Liu Ziqian was also startled by Mu An's sudden remark.

She was somewhat unable to keep up with his erratic train of thought.

Just a second ago, they were seriously discussing a very serious topic, and now they jumped to her overdue rent?

Is there any necessary connection between the two?

Moreover, this extra money wouldn't be obtained through some improper channels, would it?

Due to her profession, she subconsciously thought of many things.

[From Liu Ziqian's emotional fluctuation of confusion +15, congratulations, you have received a reward [Money +2 million]!]

"Why shouldn't I care? You should know that the community you live in is under my family's group!"

"In other words, almost every property deed there has my name on it!"

"So, as your legal landlord, shouldn't you explain why you haven't paid rent?"

Mu An had a face full of righteous indignation.

Anyone who didn't know would think some scoundrel owed a starving landlord thousands of dollars!

Furthermore, he wasn't lying.

As the eldest son and sole heir of the Mu family, when the family purchased or developed many properties, his name was basically on all of them!

The life of the rich is so simple and unadorned!

Liu Ziqian: "..."

[From Liu Ziqian's emotional fluctuation of speechlessness and surprise +16, congratulations, you have received a reward [Proficiency +3000]!]

"Are you really my landlord?"

"Absolutely!"

"The entire Sunshine Community, hundreds of units, are yours?"

"Yes! What's the problem? Just a few hundred units, is that a lot?"

Mu An raised an eyebrow, somewhat puzzled.

Hearing the other party's tone, which seemed to imply that such a thing was perfectly normal, Liu Ziqian was left speechless.

She flushed red, seemingly at a loss for words.

After a long silence, she finally managed to utter three words.

"Rich jerk!"

"Hehe, still daring to insult your landlord? You're quite brave! Your rent will increase by ten percent next month!"

Mu An smiled.

Still that kind of smile that was more mockery than genuine!

"..."

[From Liu Ziqian's emotional fluctuation of speechlessness +12, congratulations, you have received a reward [Proficiency +2000]!]

[From Liu Ziqian's emotional fluctuation of anger +19, congratulations, you have received a reward [Limited Edition Ferrari *1]!]

[From Liu Ziqian's emotional fluctuation of frustration +22, congratulations, you have received a reward [Cultivation Years +3 years]!]

.....

One could only say that Liu Ziqian was utterly frustrated.

Why is this world so small?

The landlord she owes rent to is actually this guy!

"So, when do you plan to pay me back?"

"Officer Liu, you wouldn't want your overdue rent to become common knowledge, would you?"

Mu An's lips curled up slightly, delivering a standard cherry blossom-style remark.

For the first time, he felt that collecting rent was such a delightful thing!

Especially when the tenant was the female lead, who scored over ninety (a gold mine)!

"Alright, alright, you just want to trick me into going to earn that extra money with you, right?"

Liu Ziqian resigned herself to her fate and began to give up.

If it weren't for the fact that her bank account was empty, she would have loved to withdraw a pile of cash, preferably in one-dollar bills.

Then she would smash it right in the face of this wicked rich second-generation!

[From Liu Ziqian's emotional fluctuation of envy +15, congratulations, you have received a reward [Money +3 million]!]

"I'll make it clear in advance, I definitely won't engage in any illegal activities with you!"

"And right now, I'm on a mission and can't leave my post easily!"

"If we're going to do something, it can wait until later! I don't have time now!"

But Mu An suddenly smiled mysteriously, making it hard to grasp his inner thoughts.

"Don't worry! The time I spend earning extra money definitely won't affect your mission!"

"Rather, this should also count as helping you execute part of your task!"

"Helping me execute a task? What do you want to do?"

Liu Ziqian instantly became alert.

"Those guys who planned this attack are all a walking half a million, right?"

Mu An seemed to casually mention.

"Yes? Are you suggesting...?"

Liu Ziqian suddenly realized.

If she didn't understand the underlying meaning at this point, then she would really be wasting her professional identity!

"But those guys are very cunning; it's not guaranteed that we can catch them just because we want to!"

"Their counter-surveillance abilities are strong; each one is a tough character, and they might even be carrying dangerous controlled weapons..."

"Besides, even if you really have information on their whereabouts, we're busy here, so how can we go after them?"

She couldn't help but frown slightly.

Seemingly a bit unwilling?

Although she had long wanted to capture those insane criminals.

She had to admit that she couldn't do it with her personal strength!

Even a large police station often couldn't do everything.

Otherwise, they wouldn't be in a passive position where they could only negotiate with the other party!

"Isn't there a big fish delivered to our door right now?"

Mu An chuckled softly.

Liu Ziqian instantly understood and perked up.

"Are you saying..."

As she spoke, she discreetly glanced around.

Then she leaned close to Mu An's ear and whispered softly.

"Are those guys also in the music hall right now?"

The warm breath felt somewhat intoxicating to Mu An.

But as a professional villain, he immediately stayed true to his original intentions.

Mu An silently shifted his gaze away from looking down at her and nodded subtly.

"Damn it!"

"How dare they show up at the crime scene just before the attack is about to take place!"

"This is too disrespectful to our police!"

Liu Ziqian gritted her teeth in anger, rarely letting out a fragrant exclamation.

[From Liu Ziqian's emotional fluctuation of anger +30, congratulations, you have received the reward [Cultivation Years +4 years]!]

After all, anyone who has witnessed those guys casually killing innocents for money would be unable to contain their anger!

They would wish to send them down to accompany the souls of those they have ruthlessly murdered!

Moreover, according to certain studies in criminal psychology, some psychopathic criminals indeed have the potential to commit such acts!

Soon, Liu Ziqian managed to regulate her emotions and returned to a calm state.

If one were to observe carefully, they would notice a cold glint flashing deep within her eyes.

That was the coldness and anger directed at those criminals!

"Can you find them now?"

Liu Ziqian's tone carried a hint of expectation.

[Liu Ziqian is very much looking forward to you finding those despicable criminals and bringing them to justice, emotional fluctuation +35, congratulations, you have received the reward [Fortune +35]!]

And Mu An nodded seriously, just as she hoped.

The man slowly spoke.

"I can indeed find them, but it seems you also..."
