Yang Xiaokun recounted his mission, and everyone felt there was still some danger involved.
However, it was a good thing that none of this was too difficult for the current Yang Xiaokun, and Ji Xinba was very satisfied with it.
"You should rest well today. You'll have more opportunities for missions from now on," Wu Shiyin said, patting Yang Xiaokun's shoulder with satisfaction.
Yang Xiaokun didn't say much. This was his job, and after his body recovered, he was determined to become stronger, so he would complete any mission Wu Shiyin gave him.
Yang Xiaokun had his own private room in the training base. After his mission, he returned to his room, took a hot shower, and then lay on his bed watching TV.
The TV was broadcasting a series of recent events, with the USJ Incident being the most attention-grabbing. The news also reported on Yang Xiaokun's disappearance, which clearly sparked much public discussion.
Everyone was saying that U.A. High School was incapable of protecting its students. After the USJ Incident, Yang Xiaokun, a U.A. High School student, mysteriously disappeared.
However, most outsiders didn't know that Yang Xiaokun had an incurable illness. They only knew that Yang Xiaokun had disappeared, vanished into thin air.
In fact, Yang Xiaokun really wanted to come forward and explain that all of this had nothing to do with U.A. High School, but he couldn't.
He couldn't show his face yet. Zheng Yingshan probably thought he was dead, so he might relax his guard. But if Yang Xiaokun wasn't dead, Zheng Yingshan would definitely not give up.
Now Yang Xiaokun needed to go through a stable period, during which he needed to improve his strength so that he would be fearless the next time he encountered Zheng Yingshan.
Himiko Toga had also been working very hard recently, but her talent in physical combat was far less than Yang Xiaokun's. Nevertheless, Tsukigami Kagura patiently taught her, making her stronger and stronger.
Actually, Himiko Toga was mainly responsible for intelligence work; she was a non-combatant. Now, Yang Xiaokun had become a combatant.
There was no other way; if Yang Xiaokun didn't become a combatant, something would happen sooner or later.
Although becoming a combatant could still lead to problems, he could at least improve his strength, which significantly reduced the risk.
On the third day after Yang Xiaokun returned from his mission, Wu Shiyin found him again. "There's a mission you need to complete. Take a look at the sheet."
Saying this, Wu Shiyin handed the mission sheet to Yang Xiaokun. Yang Xiaokun took the sheet and quickly glanced at it, understanding what kind of mission it was.
This mission was actually similar to the last one, except that the previous mission was to eliminate a gang leader, while this time Yang Xiaokun was to destroy a drug lord's stronghold.
And kill the drug lord.
Yang Xiaokun looked at Wu Shiyin and asked, "When does this mission start?"
"Anytime. Oh, I forgot to tell you that last month's salary has already been paid to you. As for the money for Senior Qiao to treat you, I will reduce it based on your performance in recent missions," Wu Shiyin said with a smile.
"Okay, then I'll go today. Thank you, Wu-san," Yang Xiaokun chuckled.
"What's there to thank? Don't be a stranger," Wu Shiyin said, picking his nose. With a flick of his right hand, the booger landed on Yang Xiaokun's bed.
"Why are you still so disgusting? Pick your nose in your own room!" Yang Xiaokun gritted his teeth, walked out, and headed directly to the mission location.
This drug lord's lair had reportedly changed locations several times, with many fake locations to throw people off.
But this time, the location was the most accurate one for the drug lord. However, Yang Xiaokun was a bit puzzled as to why the Poshi House always knew the exact whereabouts of these people.
Some things, even if he became a core member, the Poshi House wouldn't tell him, as if there was a firewall.
This drug dealing location was in a reed marsh. Yang Xiaokun, after disguising himself, arrived at this place. From the outside, the dense reeds made it impossible to see anything.
Perhaps no one would walk this way, but there was precisely a path here that was trodden by people.
Yang Xiaokun walked along this man-made path, the surrounding reed marshes rustling and swaying in the wind.
Just then, Yang Xiaokun suddenly felt a chill down his spine. It wasn't that he was ambushed, but a cold object was pressed against his lower back.
"Who are you, and what are you doing here?"
An emotionless voice sounded behind Yang Xiaokun. At this moment, Yang Xiaokun already knew that what was pressing against his back was a gun.
In this situation, even if he covered the spot where the gun was pressed with Holy Light, it would be impossible not to get injured; bullets could still penetrate his body.
There was no way; his Quirk level was too low, and Yang Xiaokun couldn't block it.
"I'm lost. May I ask who you are?" Yang Xiaokun said, about to turn around.
"Don't move! I'm pointing a gun at you right now. If you move, I'll shoot you dead right here!" the man shouted.
Yang Xiaokun found it a bit tricky. If the drug lord's lair was full of people with guns, how could he complete the mission?
Thinking of this, Yang Xiaokun finally remembered that the recommended number of people for this mission was three. When Wu Shiyin gave him the mission sheet, he had only glanced at it casually, thinking that Wu Shiyin wouldn't give him too difficult a mission, so he had prepared to come directly.
Who knew that only after arriving here did Yang Xiaokun remember that the recommended number of people for this mission was three, not someone like him, who was just starting out.
"Does Wu Shiyin want to kill me?" Yang Xiaokun only thought about it for a moment before dismissing it. Wu Shiyin had no need to do that; if he wanted to kill him, he wouldn't have gone to great lengths to find Qiao Nansan before.
"Can you let me go?" Yang Xiaokun said with a hint of a crying voice.
"This isn't a place you can come to. Unfortunately, since you're here, don't even think about leaving," the man said coldly, as if he was about to shoot at any moment.
Yang Xiaokun quickly said, "Are you going to kill me? I'm just passing by! I don't want to die."
"Hahaha, no one wants to die, but how do I know you're not a spy? No one can enter this place. Since you've come, you should be prepared to die," the guy said, cocking the safety and preparing to shoot.
"Wait a minute!" Yang Xiaokun shouted.
"You're about to die, what else do you want to say?" the man said impatiently.
"Before I die, I want to know your name," Yang Xiaokun said, trembling.
"So that's it," the man said, relieved. "My name is Bei Qiang. Alright, you can die now..."
Bang!
Before the guy could finish his sentence, Yang Xiaokun suddenly kicked backward, sending Bei Qiang flying. The next moment, Yang Xiaokun rushed forward and punched Bei Qiang in the heart, instantly killing him.
