Chapter 652: 399, Qing Shuli_2 Chapter 652: 399, Qing Shuli_2 “It wouldn’t be too excessive,” Chu Ci nodded, “After all, we’re all Time Travelers, and alumni at that. It’s not like we’d likely stab each other in the back…”

Actually, even Chu Ci himself wasn’t sure because the Longhu Commune had done similar things before.

What Li Yi didn’t know was that Chu Ci and the others were no longer that poor and destitute; they even had a surplus of weapons and equipment.

Before returning, even a calm person like Chu Ci couldn’t help but visit their armory every day.

For the first couple of days, he even slept directly in the armory.

It felt somewhat like sleeping on a pile of money after suddenly striking it rich overnight.

So, they no longer needed to look to anyone else’s face.

Chu Ci looked at Tuan Zi and the others: “Now that we have a foothold in City No. 10, I think, since Qing Chen Inspector has helped us several times, he definitely has some plans in mind, so there’s no need to rush. We just wait.”

There’s no such thing in this world as love without a reason, nor hatred without cause.

Tuan Zi and the rest had always been puzzled as to why Qing Chen Inspector would help them so much.

After picking up the gun and calming down to think for two days, Chu Ci finally figured it out.

They were useful to Qing Chen.

Most things in this world that are incomprehensible can be understood once reviewed from the perspective of interest.

Chu Ci looked at Tuan Zi and said, “Rather than joining the Longhu Commune, it’s better to think about how to get closer to that Qing Chen Inspector. Although he certainly doesn’t have as high a status within the Qing’s Family as the Shadow Candidates… he’s much easier to get along with than the people from Longhu Commune.”

Suddenly, Tuan Zi asked, “Senior, do you think we have the chance to become Time Traveler organizations like Daylight, Matrix, or Red Leaves?”

Chu Ci laughed and said, “You’re thinking too far ahead. If we can be like the Freemasonry established by my cousin, Nangong Yuanyu, that would be great. Last time I returned, I even heard they got connected with Daylight. We’re going to have a long time after we return this time, why don’t we take a trip to Los Angeles together? The high-speed train takes only half an hour to get there.”

Tuan Zi’s eyes lit up: “Is there a lot of good food in Los Angeles?”

“It seems there’s quite a lot.”

This time travel lasted so long that all Time Travelers, after returning, suddenly felt like they were on vacation.

They couldn’t help but want to go out and relax.

In fact, Chu Ci and his people were already doing quite well.

You have to know, some Time Travelers have no means of making a living in the Inner World and can only earnestly go to work in factories.

It means literally working every single day for 30 days, eating 30 days of Inner World fast food.

Then there are second-generation rich Time Travelers who, while having no means of making a living, can bring gold bars from the Outer World.

But in the past, the travel was only 7 days long, and everybody managed to get by.

Just by putting a couple of small gold bars in their mouths before traveling, they could live quite comfortably in the Inner World.

But this time, 30 days was simply too long. The gold bars they brought and converted into money were spent in less than half a month, forcing even the rich second generation to become workers…

This made some rich second-generation parents incredibly happy. It’s as if the kids underwent a transformation through each travel experience. Those who used to be picky eaters completely got over it and now find everything delicious.

So, many people felt a sense of vacation upon this return.

The first thing they did upon coming back was to eat at a late-night hotpot restaurant, then get a few good nights’ sleep, maybe go traveling somewhere.

Surprisingly, those dandies who had wormed their way into Cell No. 10 following Liu Dezhu seemed to become the biggest winners.

In these 30 days, they had completed the public prosecution phase and were officially transferred to Cell No. 10.

The dandies joyfully went to look for Liu Dezhu, only to be told by their fellow inmates that Liu had already been released…

At that moment, the despair on the dandies’ faces was almost palpable.

During their time in Cell No. 10, they spent every day planning how to confront Liu Dezhu after their return and how to settle accounts with him.

Cell No. 10, being a prison for important Federation figures, always received more funding than other prisons. The food and environment were much better than in other prisons.

At this moment, the original plan of the dandies to question Liu Dezhu turned into a sense of fortune when seeing the plight of other Time Travelers on the trending searches. They suddenly felt fortunate…?

This left the dandies a bit bewildered…

…

…

In a small row house in the Los Angeles National Treasure Garden Villa Area,
Zhang Wanfang sat on the living room sofa looking at her husband Qing Shuli: “You said you’ve become a Time Traveler? How did you suddenly become a Time Traveler?”

As she spoke, Zhang Wanfang’s eyes were red, and their previously tranquil life had been unexpectedly disrupted.

Just past midnight today, as Qing Shuli finished up his work, he suddenly said a countdown had appeared on his arm.

Qing Shuli was also surprised, this news completely stunned both him and Zhang Wanfang.

They had both heard about how dangerous the Inner World could be, and it also meant that despite being together, suddenly the couple would be in a long-distance relationship.

Qing Shuli frowned, “Why have I suddenly become a Time Traveler?”

He had always been keeping up with news about Time Travelers, so he knew some information.

To travel, you need to meet three conditions: the same location, the same name, and the same genes.

But thinking from the perspective of location, if Inner World Qing Shuli was also in Los Angeles, then he should have become a Time Traveler a long time ago, so why did it suddenly happen today?
