Mech: Shattering of the Galaxy-Chapter 475 - 250 Nightfall
Chapter 475 -250 Nightfall
(Congratulations to the new helmsman “Why All Names Are Gone”!)
“Are you a reservation customer?”
“Uh, lead the way.”
The calm sentence made the girl’s presence even more extraordinary. After a light bow, she led Mu Fan into the VIP channel. Interestingly, the girl named Irene did not recognize this was the same boy from last time.
Indeed, clothes do make the man. Mu Fan mused inwardly as he glanced around.
“Hello, sir, Manager Jiang is just ahead,” the girl said again, bowing softly.
Mu Fan nodded and walked straight ahead.
Upon seeing Mu Fan again, Jiang Zi paused for a moment, finding it hard to associate the young man, who exuded an aristocratic air, with the boy in tattered camouflage training attire she had seen before.
However, her professionalism prevented her from showing too much surprise.
Ask no unnecessary questions, say no unnecessary words, control your curiosity.
That is the basic quality necessary for a customer manager.
Under Jiang Zi’s leadership, Mu Fan passed through a triple scan and then, accompanied by two security personnel, entered the familiar luxurious VIP room.
After the heavy hydraulic door closed, Mu Fan looked at the familiar décor and softly said, “Black, confirm the environment is secure.”
“Secure. Go unlock the safe and take out my carrier,” Black instructed.
“Keep an eye on things here.”
Mu Fan took out the Sky Communication, switched it to video collection mode, and placed it on the table, the lens facing him.
He then walked to the safe that rose from the ground and unlocked it.
Seeing the large cubic iron box, Mu Fan gripped it slightly and then pulled it directly out of the safe.
“This is a 3A-level safe. Your palm print and DNA double recognition are registered—press your palm onto the middle touchpad.”
Following the instructions, Mu Fan heard a hiss as the lid of the box slowly contracted and folded, revealing a metallic “egg” inside.
“It’s been a while…”
Maintained by Black numerous times, it had long lost its dark surface from its first entry into the atmosphere and had regained its original silvery hue. Seeing it after so many days, Mu Fan was filled with immense emotion.
“That old guy Mohandas insisted on making me pay! Probably had his eye on my assets from the start,” Black said excitedly upon seeing the carrier. Lord Black only had this precious carrier in this world, and yet Mohandas always thought about taking advantage of him—how ruthless!
“Is this thing very precious?”
“Precious? Of course, it’s precious! This is essential material for the Smart Brain core. Is there anything inside my core that isn’t valuable!” How dare you question whether Lord Black’s very essence is valuable?
It’s absolutely unique in the universe!
“Are there other good things inside?” Mu Fan asked curiously.
“Rubbish, of course… not!” Black almost let something slip but corrected himself just in time.
Good thing I’m as smart as a dog.
Mu Fan still circled the metallic egg, sensing that Black, that sly intelligence, hadn’t been entirely forthcoming.
Since when have intelligent lives become so stingy!
Thump, thump, Mu Fan knocked on it again with his finger.
Black’s tone became anxious, shouting in Mu Fan’s ear, “There’s really nothing inside! I swear!”
“Is your swearing useful?” Mu Fan continued tapping, listening to the echo inside, nonchalantly saying.
“… There’s an old item left inside for you, something that was agreed upon long ago.”
“Hm? Something from my instructor, why haven’t you mentioned it before?”
Mu Fan asked in surprise.
“Let’s wait till you find the Jade Tear to discuss it. It’s no use talking about it now. I’m just giving you some anticipation and motivation, a hint that you’ll definitely love this item.” Black deliberately played coy, leaving Mu Fan itching with irritation yet helpless.
Mu Fan expressionlessly glanced at Sky Communication and then pointed at the silver “egg,” speaking, “Take out the material for the flexible weighted clothing.”
The smooth, mirror-like surface silently opened a small window, and then a slender mechanical arm stretched out, holding a tray with a… cylindrical metal disc.
“This metal looks so strange,” Mu Fan murmured to himself.
“Strange my ass! This was taken out by me from the carrier; this is genuine zero radiation variable morphology soft flow gallium metal from Yake Super Empire!” Black was about to explode; this was like cutting his own flesh.
Although Black had mostly detached from this carrier, this was the birthplace of Intelligent Life—every part, every piece of metal was memorized vividly by him.
“Although I don’t understand it, it sounds pretty awesome,” Mu Fan successfully provoked Black again.
“Put this metal into the disguised briefcase, then restore it to its original form.”
Mu Fan put the metal egg back into the custom-made iron box and dragged it back into the safe. As he was about to press the retract button, he saw the metal medicine box Bai Guyue had given him.
Hesitating for a moment, Mu Fan, not knowing what he was thinking, flicked open the medicine box and pulled out a metal test tube, then held it in his palm.
Black did not notice this subtle movement, so Mu Fan then pressed the button.
After the safe door closed and locked, it slowly sank and disappeared.
Mu Fan raised his wrist to check the time, “The time is now 17:26. In one hour as it gets darker, I will set off.”
After speaking, Mu Fan slightly adjusted his breathing, then sat in the simple yet comfortable chair, his eyes slightly squinted, and he instantly entered a light dozing sleep.
Hunters optimized their condition before action.
Black remained silent, and the VIP room fell into complete silence, except for Mu Fan’s slow and long breaths.
Time quickly approached 18:30. The normal business hours had already ended, but as the VIP hall, the service manager ensured she completely satisfied her distinguished guests. So, dressed in professional business attire, Jiang Zi remained diligently at her office desk working.
Mr. Hei Fan, who had entered earlier, had not yet come out, the last guest in the safe deposit vault; but as a seasoned professional in this industry for many years, she would absolutely not initiate any inquiries.
All wealthy clients dislike their privacy being probed.
So, providing impeccable service was all that mattered.
The sounds that filled the quiet VIP section now were Jiang Zi’s rhythmic typing on the keyboard and the occasional rustling of paper. freewёbnoνel.com
Then, suddenly, the indicator light of the next-door safe deposit vault lit up, and Jiang Zi got up to meet the door only to see Mu Fan, accompanied by security personnel and carrying a briefcase, walking out.
He didn’t use the briefcase provided by Star Construction Company. It seemed Mr. Hei Fan didn’t take out anything large; maybe he just handled some matters inside.
Thus, Jiang Zi adjusted her hair near her ear and signaled the security personnel to leave.
“Mr. Hei Fan, have you finished your business?”
“Yeah, sorry to have kept you waiting.”
After resting for an hour, Mu Fan was now in a state of heightened spirits and, seeing Jiang Zi’s slightly tired face, sincerely thanked her, “Thank you for your hard work.”
“Your satisfaction is the purpose of my service. Thank you for visiting the Blue Capital Star Construction Commercial Bank.”
Jiang Zi bowed slightly and properly spoke.
“Goodbye.”
Mu Fan nodded, and under Jiang Zi’s observant eye, he left the VIP hall.
Mr. Hei Fan truly was extraordinary at a young age, and also seemed quite mysterious.
As Mu Fan walked out of the bank hall, looking around at the increasingly dark sky, he softly spoke,
“Black, deploy the camouflage suit.”
