The Queen's Rise to the Top

Chapter 474

Nan XiangWan finished her bread and came to Cang Hai's hot pot restaurant, sitting on the electrified wall, with breadcrumbs still sticking to the corners of her mouth.

Cang Hai was still washing dishes in his original position. Seeing Nan XiangWan, he was shocked: "Miss, you can take the back door, or just say you're looking for a friend when you come in through the front door. Please don't just sit on the electric fence, okay?"

Nan XiangWan: "Sleeping on the wooden plank bed last night, getting electrified relaxes my bones and muscles, it's pretty good."

Cang Hai: "... "

Nan XiangWan: "Did you get your wages?"

Cang Hai: "Don't worry about my money. I still want to buy ice cream to eat. I left food for you."

With that, he took out a bunch of takeaway boxes from the back kitchen, all leftover or cancelled orders from customers the day before.

Nan XiangWan: "What time do you get off work tonight?"

Cang Hai: "The hot pot restaurant closes at 10 pm. What's up?"

Nan XiangWan: "Just asking."

Before Cang Hai could say anything else, with a blink of an eye, the person on the wall was gone, along with those takeaway boxes.

Nan XiangWan returned to the milk tea shop again, eating a beef patty in her left hand and a large grilled sausage in her right.

Invincible couldn't stand it and started cursing: "You're going too far!"

Nan XiangWan: "Call me daddy, I'll share some with you."

Invincible: "Daddy."

After sharing the food, Nan XiangWan instructed: "Keep the wages, I'll take you out for a big meal at 10 pm tonight."

Invincible's eyes lit up: "Really? Going into a restaurant properly and eating that kind of meal?"

Nan XiangWan: "Yes."

When it was close to 1 pm, Nan XiangWan returned to the vicinity of a certain bureau.

After 24 hours, the security system here has been fully upgraded. There were even guards patrolling at the entrance. The security was so tight that not even a fly, mosquito or ant could get in!

Asura was also nearby, rolling his eyes at Nan XiangWan from a hundred meters away.

It's all your fault! Increasing the difficulty of the task!

Nan XiangWan was expressionless and walked straight ahead.

Sure enough, she was stopped by the guards at the entrance at first: "Who are you looking for?"

Nan XiangWan smiled, speaking in a middle schooler's voice: "Returning lost items to their owner."

Guard: "???"

From a distance, Asura watched with his mouth wide open as Nan XiangWan walked through the front gate, and the guard even smiled at her politely.

After standing there in shock for a while, Asura started looking for another way in.

Using brute force, sneaking in through the blind spots and gaps in surveillance.

But by now, Nan XiangWan had already gotten inside and was facing the receptionist she had seen yesterday.

The receptionist smiled and asked, "Hello, who are you looking for?"

Nan XiangWan briefly explained the situation, pointing at the red scarf on her face.

The receptionist said in surprise: "We can't help you with that. Why don't you check with other departments? Or your parents?"

Nan XiangWan looked disappointed: "But that elementary school student must be very sad."

The receptionist was a little speechless, but still politely said: "Well, online videos can also be for gaining views and dramatization. And although this video had many views, it's not a social issue. You're still young, don't worry too much."

Nan XiangWan: "Okay, thank you anyway."

Receptionist: "You're welcome."

Nan XiangWan: "Can I use the restroom?"

Receptionist: "Of course."

Nan XiangWan turned around and slipped upstairs when no one was paying attention.

On the third floor, the familiar office door.

The door lock had been replaced with a new one, but it was unlocked. No one was in the office.

Nan XiangWan walked in, put the document back in its original place, then opened the door and left.

When she got back downstairs, she thanked the staff again before leaving, the red scarf still brightly fluttering on her chest.

The staff behind smiled and waved goodbye to her.

Half an hour later.

Guan Fei looked at the time, it was about time, so he returned to the office to stakeout.

He was very curious how those two could have gotten in and returned the document under such strict security today.

But as soon as he walked into the office, Guan Fei keenly sensed that the room's aura was different!

Someone had come in!

One look at the desk, both documents were there, placed neatly and aligned.

Guan Fei: "..."

How did they do it? And so stealthily!

As Nan XiangWan walked out of the front gate, she glanced to the side and casually flicked a small pebble.

A figure was jumping down from a tree and flipping over the wall to get out. He tilted his body to dodge the pebble, and made a throat slitting gesture at Nan XiangWan.

Nan XiangWan: "Tsk! You're not invited to dinner tonight!"

Asura was about to start running but paused, feeling somewhat conflicted.

Dinner? What dinner? It's probably a trap!

Not far away, several senior students were observing with binoculars. After seeing the whole process, they were amazed.

Asura's movements and stealth skills were indeed extremely high. Coming and going like a ghost. The first time was taking advantage of the chaos, the second time was absolute skill.

That girl with the straight fringe is just freaky!

Her terrifying adaptability, who knows how she got in and out through the front gate, and the guard even smiled at her?

Especially that red scarf, fluttering brightly on her chest the whole time, it was eye-catching.

After getting everything done, Nan XiangWan put her hands in her pockets, looked up at the sky, it was 2pm now. 8 hours until the dinner gathering at night.

She started running, returning along the same route, running dozens of kilometers to the 23rd Elementary School of the Imperial Capital.

The school's gatekeeper grandpa was sleeping soundly, when he suddenly felt something abnormal and opened his eyes to see a big black rat passing by.

The grandpa rubbed his eyes, full of questions, who's that?

At the same time, in the office of the fifth grade teachers, a note and a washed and folded red scarf were left on one of the desks.

[Returning the red scarf, please pass it to the boy in Class 1 of Grade 5 who had his red scarf snatched away. He was not lying, I was the one who took the red scarf]

After class, the head teacher returned to the office and fell into thought upon seeing the note and red scarf...

Nan XiangWan returned to the task location again, it was 9:50 pm.

The 23rd Elementary School was very far from here, which shows how far the helicopter flew to take her away from the Imperial Capital. The round trip took Nan XiangWan almost 8 hours, she was starving, on the verge of hypoglycemia.

She had only eaten breakfast the whole day!

Nan XiangWan first found Invincible, then found Crystal who had returned from the park after playing chess. She combined the wages they earned from their part time jobs, adding up to only 300 yuan.

Invincible: "You told me we were having a big meal with 300 bucks? Screw you!"

Crystal: "Speaking of which, didn't you earn any money yourself?"

Nan XiangWan: "300 yuan, let's make do with it!"

She took the two to the hot pot restaurant. There were still 10 minutes before closing time, only one table of customers remained finishing up their meal.

Most of the staff had already gotten off work, only two were left to clean up and close shop after the last customers left.

Cang Hai was mopping the floor when he caught sight of three people walking in out of the corner of his eye. Looking up, he saw his fellow drifters.

Nan XiangWan slapped the 300 yuan on the table, acting proud and imposing: "500 yuan worth of hotpot!"

Cang Hai: "You brought 300 to eat 500? Don't make me call the cops man!"

Nan XiangWan: "Don't you have 200? Sit down and eat with us."

Cang Hai: "???"

Late at night, the hot pot restaurant that should have closed was filled with aroma. The last employee to leave the shop sat at the table happily feasting away.

Nan XiangWan called out while eating: "Bring over the unfinished cola from the next table."

Invincible: "That's really unnecessary right? Doesn't the milk tea I brought smell nice?"

Crystal: "You guys really keep lowering my expectations."

Cang Hai: "There are vegetables in the kitchen that were going to be thrown away as waste, and meat that was defrosted but has to be eaten tomorrow. They were all going to be discarded today, shall we cook them as well?"

Nan XiangWan: "Bring them up! Let's eat!"

The food for the four people added up to a full two thousand yuan, yet they had only spent the initial five hundred yuan for ordering. In the end, all the leftover food in the kitchen was brought out, and the four people ate with great delight, even exclaiming that for this kind of task in the future they would just go to hot pot restaurants everywhere to eat their fill!

Outside the door, Asura, who was passing by the hot pot restaurant, stopped and looked inside in bewilderment.

They're really eating a feast?

Where did they get the money!
