# Chapter 243: Brother, You're Just Too Hospitable
Jiangnan: "What's the specific situation?"
Bai Qianxun said: "According to the locator, Roff Capone has settled in a spot at the northwest corner of the Budaya city district!"
"Here's the route map!"
Jiangnan took the locator and found that although Roff Capone had gone out several times, he always ended up returning to that place.
He was also at that location right now.
"This should be their hideout! Roff and his crew came for the immortality serum!"
"They'll definitely make contact with the supplier!"
"Xiao Hei, keep an eye on Roff Capone! Where he goes, what he does, who he meets—I need to know everything! Got it?"
Xiao Hei: "Yes! Captain Nan Shen!"
Jiangnan changed the subject: "Shanmao! How's the investigation going on that person from the business card Roff gave us?"
Shanmao opened the satellite computer: "The only person matching the description is him, Mark Brand!"
"He's affiliated with the US Special Operations Forces, but the files show he died ten years ago on the Laya battlefield. Did we get it wrong?"
The photo showed a blonde-haired, blue-eyed man with a thick beard and a long scar on his lip.
Jiangnan frowned slightly.
Dahei was stunned: "This... I think I saw this guy in Budaya a few days ago, more than once!"
Jiangnan grinned: "Looks like Mark's been living a pretty comfortable life after his death!"
"Dahei, go find this guy! But don't push it if you can't find him!"
"This Mark is our breakthrough!"
Dahei said excitedly: "Got it!"
Bai Qianxun's pretty face was full of excitement. She didn't expect they'd already found a lead so soon after arriving!
Shanmao asked curiously: "Xiao Nan, what's your plan? Approach him disguised as a buyer?"
Jiangnan shook his head: "That's too troublesome! This is their turf, too many uncertain factors!"
"Not only would we fail to get anything useful, we might expose our intentions!"
Bai Qianxun: "Then what do we do?"
Jiangnan chuckled: "Why not just ask him directly where the base is?"
With that, he changed into black clothes: "I'll make a trip first!"
Then, holding the locator, he teleported away without a trace.
Shanmao was puzzled: "What's he doing?"
Bai Qianxun: "He couldn't be going to ask Mark directly, could he..."
Shanmao rolled her eyes. That would be just like him!
Wang Zhengyang and the others, hearing the commotion, woke up, their faces full of excitement.
They never expected Jiangnan to find a lead so soon after arriving!
This efficiency was terrifying!
"Is there going to be an operation?"
---
At this moment, Jiangnan, dressed in black, kept teleporting straight toward Roff's hideout!
No one could detect Jiangnan's movements at all!
It was a somewhat rundown six-story hotel, and the locator showed Roff was staying here.
But Jiangnan wasn't sure which room he was in!
So he teleported to the hotel rooftop.
He opened a space wormhole in the roof and stuck his head through.
"Hmm? Nobody?"
So he teleported into the room and opened another space wormhole in the floor to investigate!
In room 305, several of Roff's underlings were drunk as skunks.
"White! You actually need to drink! Are you saving it for fish or what?!"
White, dazed, raised his glass and chugged.
That tilt of the head was a problem!
The problem was, he saw a head growing out of the ceiling out of nowhere!
"Pfft!"
A big mouthful of whiskey sprayed out, catching the brother across from him right in the face!
"Motherf*cker! White! That's not how you sell booze!"
White pointed at the ceiling in terror: "Ghost! Ghost!"
"A big-headed ghost!"
[From Roff White's resentment value +1000!]
The brother wiped his face and turned to look, but there was only the ceiling. Where was any big-headed ghost?
"Big-headed ghost my ass! You're too drunk, aren't you?"
White rubbed his eyes and confirmed everything was normal.
He couldn't help feeling confused. But just now...
Could he really have been seeing things?
Jiangnan, lying on the floor upstairs, patted his racing heart.
Damn it!
He'd searched over twenty rooms and planted a whole box of bugs!
Why couldn't he find Roff Capone's room?
Jiangnan stuck his head through again and finally found the right person.
As his head emerged from the ceiling,
Roff Capone was sleeping soundly in bed. Jiangnan planted another bug as usual.
Just as he was about to leave, he noticed a meter-tall explosion-proof safe standing beside Roff Capone's bed,
handcuffed to his wrist!
Jiangnan's eyes lit up!
What kind of treasure was this, sleeping with it by his side?
He pulled his head back, aimed carefully, and opened another space wormhole!
This time, he opened it inside the safe, licked his lips, and reached in with his wicked little hand to feel around.
"Hmm~ What is this? So heavy?"
When he pulled it out, it was all golden and shiny!
Holy cow!
A gold brick the size of a regular brick? How impressive was that?
One piece weighed 50 catties!
Was the whole safe full of these?
Oh my goodness!
Jiangnan's face was pure excitement, his expression now like:
٩($﹃$)٩
Drool was practically flowing!
Who cared about anything else? He started frantically grabbing!
These big gold bricks were just too tempting!
I can't control myself!
He pulled out twenty large gold bricks in total. Jiangnan was ecstatic!
One brick weighed 50 catties! Twenty bricks was 1,000 catties!
How much was that worth!
Poor Roff. For this, I specially brought all this gold all the way here!
This kindness! There's nothing more to say!
Generous!
To express his gratitude, Jiangnan specially pulled twenty large bricks from his alternate dimension and stuffed them back into the safe!
But Jiangnan was still worried it might be discovered. After all, gold is much heavier than bricks!
So he teleported to the suburbs, gathered about 900 catties of rocks,
compressed them into black pearls using a void black hole, and put them into the explosion-proof iron box!
That should fix the weight issue!
Satisfied, Jiangnan was about to leave,
when Roff Capone turned over in his sleep.
Jiangnan noticed that his other wrist was also handcuffed to a delicate little box!
Jiangnan sighed deeply: "Tsk! Brother! Why won't you let me leave?"
"You're just too hospitable!"
Half an hour later!
Jiangnan returned to the safe house, his face beaming red.
Bai Qianxun's eyes lit up: "Nan Shen, where did you go?"
Jiangnan pulled a radio from his alternate dimension and chuckled: "I took a trip to Roff's hotel and planted some bugs!"
The people in the safe house were stunned!
No way?
In the time it took to eat a meal, he'd already planted bugs in their enemy's nest?
Was he that badass?
Space-type abilities were really too convenient!
Now they could monitor Roff's movements in real time!
Jiangnan quietly approached Shanmao and said in a low voice: "Shanmao-jie, can you help me take a look at what this is?"
He pulled a gleaming green fruit from his pocket, radiating spiritual light!
Shanmao was startled, then said in surprise: "This... isn't this the Emerald Fruit from Brolodia?"
"It has an excellent realm-breaking effect! It even works on Platinum-level powerhouses! It's extremely precious, a priceless treasure!"
"Where did you get this?"
Jiangnan smiled brightly and stuffed it into Shanmao's arms: "For you!"
Shanmao kept shaking her head: "I don't want it. Save it for when you have trouble breaking through your realm. It would be wasted on me!"
Jiangnan insisted: "I still have more. You eat it. You're at Gold Peak now, you need to get to Platinum quickly. I'm counting on you to protect me!"
Shanmao looked into Jiangnan's eyes: "Do you really have more?"
Jiangnan rolled his eyes: "Have I ever lied to you?"
Shanmao lowered her head: "Then... okay!"
Her face flushed red: "Thank you, Xiao Nan!"
Jiangnan grinned, looking very proud.
He'd successfully fooled Shanmao again!
That felt great~
