My bathroom connects to another world
Chapter 112 - 112 112 We Now Have a Backer

112: Chapter 112 We Now Have a Backer 112: Chapter 112 We Now Have a Backer Having run all the way back to the residential area, Zhao Guang finally let out a sigh of relief, his sister was becoming increasingly troublesome.

It would be better to continue training in the Otherworld.

With only a few days left, his first Lifebound Battle Skill would be complete.

Right now, Zhao Guang just wanted to endure until then and then take a good bath to get rid of the smell.

During this period, Zhao Guang even suspected he had turned into a salted fish and wondered if he could ever wash clean again.

But just as he reached his home’s entrance, Zhao Guang saw someone blocking his path.

“Comrade, is there something you need?” Zhao Guang asked with a resigned expression, recognizing Qian Duo as the person blocking him.

As for the man next to Qian Duo, Zhao Guang didn’t recognize him; the man had a negligible presence.

Men standing next to a beautiful woman always seem to be deliberately overlooked.

“I’ve come to ask you about something.

The manager of Golden Mansion, Wang Qishan, died.

Are you aware of this matter?”

This was suspicion falling on him, but that was impossible, wasn’t it?

So many people had been watching when the guy died.

Zhao Guang even thought about whether to prepare more Misfortune Scrolls.

These could indeed determine to some extent whether a person deserved to die, judging by the person’s own actions.

As long as he reduced the power of the Misfortune Scroll, those who shouldn’t die really wouldn’t, they would just be unlucky for a while.

But he never imagined that because of this matter, he would be targeted by the police.

“Well, Wang Qishan’s death doesn’t seem to have anything to do with me,” Zhao Guang said somewhat helplessly.

“You’re already aware?

Don’t worry, this is just a rational inquiry.

How could we ignore the fact that you had conflicts with him?”

Fine then, so you know about the grudge between us, Zhao Guang thought with an eye roll.

In fact, he had guessed as much the first time Wang Qishan caused him trouble.

And those police officers weren’t fools; of course, they also had some suspicions about the dealings of those thugs.

But even if there was a report, without evidence, the officers wouldn’t bother with the accused.

As a result, right after the guy died, because of the conflict with Zhao Guang, they came looking for him.

Could these officers not focus on their actual jobs?

They’d be much better off using all that energy against criminals.

Though Zhao Guang himself had taken action, he never considered himself a criminal.

“Of course, I know.

I just watched the video myself,” he said.

“You’re quite lucky then, because that video has now been taken down.”

Zhao Guang was somewhat surprised: “Taken down?

Why?

It was such an entertaining video.”

Qian Duo frowned slightly, clearly displeased: “Someone died, and you call that entertaining?

That video was too peculiar and was implicated in the spread of feudal superstition, so it was taken down.”

What exactly was spreading?

Zhao Guang thought for a moment, as the video seemed to just depict the facts.

Well, Zhao Guang didn’t understand what standards were applied for such matters; anyway, it wasn’t his concern.

“Rather than questioning me, you should investigate that guy more.

It was hard to look into Wang Qishan while he was alive, but now that he’s dead, there shouldn’t be any problem, right?

He did so much evil; his death is letting him off too easily.”

“What?

You knew about the things Wang Qishan did, why didn’t you report it to the authorities?”

Zhao Guang scoffed, “Do I need to?

You don’t even care.

Now you can investigate, aren’t you going to check more thoroughly?”

An officer beside them said, “Shut it.

Do we need your advice on how to conduct our investigation?”

Qian Duo nonchalantly replied, “There’s pressure from above not allowing us to dig deeper.

There’s nothing we can do about that.”

Zhao Guang’s eyes flashed with disdain: “So, you can only bully those without power, is that it?”

“How can you speak like that?

We have our own difficulties too.”

Zhao Guang couldn’t be bothered to argue any longer.

They had troubles, sure, but weren’t they supposed to solve them?

No wonder people’s faith in you all is waning, he thought—it’s a fact.

Suddenly, Qian Duo’s phone rang.

“What?

The higher-ups said not to investigate Zhao Guang anymore, and not to disrupt his life.

Who said that?

Even higher up?

Alright, I understand.

I will strictly obey the order.”

Qian Duo glared fiercely at Zhao Guang: “You’re lucky.

Don’t let me catch you in the future.”

Zhao Guang didn’t quite understand the situation but replied nonchalantly anyway: “I’m sure that day won’t come.

Take care on your way out, no need for me to see you off.” With that, Zhao Guang even raised his hand and made a wave goodbye gesture.

Ignoring how irritated the two officers were, Zhao Guang walked in the direction of his home.

“What’s the situation?

Direct pressure on the officers?

These things shouldn’t be within Guo Siyu’s reach.

Wait, Li San Ye, it must be because of the Gold transaction showing promise already,” he mused.

The people above usually don’t act until they see the benefits, Zhao Guang was quite certain of this.

Only they had the power to exert direct pressure on the police department; Zhao Guang somewhat understood.

Sometimes, power was truly too convenient—it might not help accomplish things, but it could definitely prevent a lot of hassle.

“In that case, I should thank Li San Ye,” Zhao Guang said, his smile taking on a peculiar quality.

Anyway, as long as he steered clear of those folks, there would be no issues.

The time wasted these past few days had mostly been at the police station.

Regardless, the incident seemed to be resolved for now, and for the foreseeable future, it was unlikely anyone would dare cause him trouble.

But Zhao Guang began to consider that perhaps he couldn’t continue living this way.

If things stayed the same, he’d eventually be targeted again.

Even those above couldn’t be fully trusted.

After all, the higher-ups weren’t united, always housing various factions and people with different ideologies.

“Now that I have quite a bit of money, perhaps I can craft a Golden Body for myself.”

Zhao Guang remembered how many businesspeople created a Golden Body for themselves, layering on Auras to secure an invincible position.

Maybe he could do the same.

But exactly how to go about it required careful consideration.

“I should see the Elderly Book Enthusiast.

That guy has really wild imaginations in novels; he might provide me with plenty of information.”

Zhao Guang had been chatting with the Elderly Book Enthusiast from time to time, and the two had become quite familiar.

Particularly under the guise of discussing novels, Zhao Guang had inquired about many things.

Though a lot of it was too idealistic, it at least provided him with a direction.

But for now, it was best to go to the Otherworld for some training.

He’d wait until this wave of training was over to decide anything.

After confirming continuously that no one was monitoring him, Zhao Guang opened the Space Gate and headed to the opposite side for his training.

Nothing was happening over the next few days, which was perfect for advancing his progress.

The Armor around him felt like it was almost completely corroded by his Combat Energy.
