Starting Cultivation in Wasteland

Chapter 137: Hype Waves – 138: The Rise and Fall (Part 4)



Unfortunately, he rushed to get the manuscript approved early on, fearing the other party might rewrite a version, leaving no time for careful thought.

Now, he wanted to use this opportunity to provoke the headquarters into taking action to get rid of those two people for him.

However, the person asking the question didn't engage with that at all, knowing from experience that the manuscript was definitely not written by Tanaka Ichiro!

Out of respect for the president of Celestial District, he didn't expose it and just waved his hand, "Then you go back and refine it."

Tanaka Yoshi felt, though, that this was an opportunity that could be exploited.

He openly declared to the public that his son's manuscript received high-level recognition and currently needed improvement.

And where's the best place to refine a theory? Of course, it's the Maintenance Master Headquarters!

There is a wealth of materials here and many expert maintenance masters in various fields; communicating and exchanging ideas might spark some inspiration.

At least for now, they have a reason to linger at the Maintenance Master Headquarters.

The high-level person who had asked the question snorted disdainfully upon hearing this, but ultimately said no more.

Before long, the news also reached Dai Xingyan's ears, and she came to the suburbs again to report it.

President Dai even guessed that Tanaka Yoshi was using the situation as a cover, but there was one objective fact: the father and son duo wouldn't be returning anytime soon.

Bentley disdainfully remarked, "They said they'd be back soon, but how could they be so thick-skinned?"

Isn't this just the Wasteland version of 'coming back next week'? Qu Jianlei really wasn't surprised.

Seeing President Dai's indignant face, he couldn't help but speak up, "You have other resources you can utilize."

Dai Xingyan was stunned, "You know my family's resources?"

"How would I know?" Qu Jianlei shook his head, "I mean the wealthy district in Taikoo… isn't that a resource too?"

Dai Xingyan was momentarily stunned, then her eyes lit up, "Got it, let them apply pressure, right?"

The deaths of five maintenance masters seemed to have a significant impact in Taikoo, but in reality, it wasn't much.

The maintenance master community erupted, but everyone else's lives went on as usual.

Except for the fiery vehicle incident that drew significant societal attention, not much else was noticed.

Wasteland people are different from Blue Star people; the pressure of survival is so immense that there aren't many bystanders.

However, the death of another person, the A-level maintenance master who drowned in the bathtub, also caused a small stir.

The uproar wasn't because he was A-level, but because… he lived in the wealthy district!

Taikoo's wealthy district houses more than half of the Celestial District's rich — some don't live there often, but at least own property.

Having an unnatural death in the wealthy district is very sensitive; their reaction wasn't any smaller than that of the maintenance masters.

At the same time, these are highly connected individuals with their own circles.

Soon, they learned that someone from Central City was dissatisfied with the Maintenance Association.

A good number of them even knew that the Dai Family was involved in this matter.

Since it didn't concern them, most stopped applying pressure.

It's not that no one can provoke the Dai Family; the issue is, the killer is a Modified Warrior from Central City, and who would be crazy enough to provoke that?

But then again, the occurrence of such a murder case in the previously safe wealthy district made everyone uneasy.

No one likes uncontrollable situations, especially since these wealthy individuals are used to being in control.

Dai Xingyan instantly understood Qu Jianlei's point—such a resource shouldn't be wasted.

Then she immediately went to make arrangements.

The Celestial District is the leader in the Gathering Area; how powerful are the rich here? Most people couldn't imagine.

Bentley is also a well-off native of Central City, yet the refugees from the Desert District could extinguish his entire family.

So one should not underestimate the energy of these wealthy individuals.

Tanaka Yoshi felt the pressure from the Celestial District's wealthy by the next day.
