The NO.1 Food Stall in the Wasteland novel Chapter 268

Chapter 268: Chapter 268: Everyone is a Professional

Xue Can summoned his Fire Needle. "You shouldn’t have touched her. You deserve to die."

"Wait." Boss Jin raised a hand. "Mr. Xue, we can talk. I’m sure you approached her for the mysterious supplier, too. I can cooperate with you, fake my death, and help you win her trust!"

"Your Superpower Level is high, Mr. Xue, but that doesn’t mean you know how to do business. I’m willing to follow your lead, offer up all my assets, and help you make the Gale Mercenary Corps bigger and stronger—the top Mercenary Corps in the Imperial City, no, in all four survival bases! All I ask is that you spare my life!"

Boss Jin’s posture couldn’t have been more subservient. He had no choice. Xue Can’s Superpower Level was higher than the mercenaries he’d hired. If Xue Can attacked, he was a dead man for sure.

Xue Can didn’t answer. He simply sent the Fire Needle straight into Boss Jin’s brow and chest.

The man’s eyes shot wide open. He spat out a mouthful of blood and collapsed to the ground like a heap of rotten meat.

The assistant, trembling, could only glare furiously at Xue Can, not daring to speak his anger.

Jin San arrived late. By the time he dragged his injured arm inside, he found Boss Jin already dead.

The food in Jin San’s hands suddenly fell to the floor. He let out a mournful cry, "Big Brother!"

"Xue Can, you actually killed my big brother! I’ll make you pay with your life."

It wasn’t as if Jin San and Boss Jin were particularly close, but after he was kicked out of the Gale Mercenary Corps, his big brother was the only one willing to take him in. Plus, he had been living quite well recently. He did have some genuine affection for Boss Jin.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have stuck by Boss Jin’s side while he was being hunted.

Now, with Boss Jin brutally killed, the string of reason in Jin San’s mind instantly snapped. With a roar, he charged at Xue Can.

This time, Xue Can showed no mercy, ending Jin San’s life in a single move.

"Clean up the rest of them, too." Xue Can turned and instructed Mo Bei in a low voice.

The two mercenaries Boss Jin had hired immediately raised their hands. "Mr. Xue, we were just hired guns."

When Xue Can had made his move just now, they hadn’t even flinched. You could say they were being quite cooperative. ’You’ve already killed our employer, so you can’t kill us too.’

Xue Can didn’t recognize these two mercenaries and guessed Boss Jin must have hired them from a smaller Mercenary Corps.

He tilted his head, signaling for them to leave.

Now, only the assistant was left.

When the assistant saw Xue Can’s gaze sweep over to him, he quickly lowered his head, putting on a frightened expression.

"You were the one who came to the shop looking for Shen Lu yesterday, weren’t you?" Xue Can said suddenly.

The assistant didn’t say anything at first. After half a minute, he answered in a hoarse voice, "I-I don’t know what you’re talking about."

"What’s the use of disguising your voice? We Superpower Users never identify people by their voice anyway."

Before the words had even faded, Mo Bei’s combat knife was already buried in the assistant’s chest.

"You..." Gouts of blood gushed from the assistant’s mouth, and a moment later, he was dead.

Mo Bei pulled out his knife, confirmed all three were dead, and then gave Xue Can an "OK" sign.

After leaving the small house, Xue Can sent a message to Shen Lu.

Xue Can: Mission accomplished.

Shen Lu: Mr. Xue, you’re so efficient.

Xue Can had only been gone for an hour and a half, and he’d already handled it. Shen Lu had thought it would take him all night just to find them.

Xue Can: Everyone has their specialty. Boss Shen is also very fast at cooking.
