Chapter 33: Impressively Annoying Zero (Part 1)

“Fully loaded?” Finn Lewis asked again.

“Well, not the top-of-the-line, but it’s a high-spec one.” The saleswoman stumbled over her words, not sure what to make of Finn. His first inquiry was about the availability of the car and whether it was a top-spec model. Does he plan to buy it? She was left unsure, as opposed to other customers who would typically inquire about the specs and the price, last. But Finn hadn’t asked anything else.

If he couldn’t afford it, she would have known from a mile away, having been in this business for so long. But there was nothing in his demeanor or expression to suggest he couldn’t.

While the saleswoman was still trying to make sense of Finn, the other onlooking customers were taken aback by his remarks. A young man blurted out, “Show-off.”

Finn glanced at him but paid him no mind. However, a young man dressed in casual white clothes next to the heckler evaluated Finn thoughtfully before saying, “Maverick, apologize.”

He did not wait for Maverick to react before moving on to apologize himself. He came over, bowed slightly, and said, “Sorry about that, sir. My friend tends to be a bit mouthy.”

Finn looked at the man in surprise. Compared to him, Finn looked positively dowdy. But he didn’t expect this man to apologize. Aren’t people like him usually all high and mighty?

The muscular man next to the handsome youth in white was surprised,

“Brother Six.”

“Apologize!” The handsome youth in white, referred to as Brother Six, turned around and frowned.

“Wait, no need. He didn’t name names. Let’s just drop it.” Finn waved his hand dismissively. Not that Finn was easy-going, but he felt there was something off about this man. Judging by the attitude of the man beside him, it was rather surprising that he would put on such a humble front.

Finn wasn’t anyone important, and he didn’t understand why this man would behave this way. To avoid getting entangled with these people, he didn’t accept the apology. Although he used to be a nobody, he wasn’t foolish — when a situation deviates from the norm, there’s something fishy going on.

After dismissing Brother Six’s apology, Finn turned back to the saleswoman and handed her bank card, “I’ll take it. Cash. Can I pick it up now?”

“Uh, yes.” The saleswoman was at a loss for words, unsure of how to respond. She had never met a customer who asked only two questions before making a purchase. Are you sure this is not the same as buying cigarettes from a supermarket? And are you sure you’re buying an Ice Horse? But as much as she wanted to comment, it didn’t show on her face. Instead, she beamed, having scored a huge sale. To her, every customer should be like this. She’d make a fortune overnight! Finn, who initially seemed like any other common customer, was now essentially a cash cow!

In a moment, her perspective on Finn changed entirely. “Sir, come this way, please. We just need you to sign a contract.”

Finn just smiled and followed the saleswoman, leaving Maverick and Brother Six behind. Only when Finn was out of sight did Maverick snap back to reality. “Who was that, Brother Six?” he asked.

“Still think he’s a show-off?” Brother Six turned to face Maverick.

“No… he’s genuinely impressive.” Maverick complained. They may have been well-off, but could they really afford to buy a car like it was nothing more than a pack of cigarettes? He only spoke three sentences from entering to purchasing, one of which was “I’ll take it.”

“Remember the person I told you about who monopolized the entire Nine Heavens Pool a few days ago?” the handsome white-clothed man asked.

“It was him?” Maverick suddenly understood what was happening.

“Yes. He had at least thirty bodyguards with him at the time,” the man in white confirmed, nodding, “But all investigations into him turned up no information whatsoever.”

“I see.” Maverick understood why Brother Six told him this. “But… what’s up with his dressing style? Are his clothes worth more than two hundred yuan?”

“Hehe, didn’t you see the watch on his wrist? It’s worth almost as much as the car itself.” The man in white chuckled lightly.

“Alright then.” Maverick didn’t know what else to say.

Within an hour, Finn had finished all the paperwork and drove away. Driving wasn’t an issue for him although he didn’t have a license. But it shouldn’t be a big deal. A new car comes with a test drive period, doesn’t it?

Getting a license plate in Celeston City was not difficult but expensive. Driving this Ice Horse worth over six million, Finn thought for a bit before asking, “Zero, can you get me a driver’s license?

“Yes, I can.” Zero replied succinctly. Moments later, Finn saw a flash of blue light on the passenger seat, and a black-covered driver’s license appeared. He parked the car and picked up the license and flipped through it.

It was identical to the licenses of his dormitory mates. “Damn, your forgery level is off the charts,” Finn couldn’t help but remark.

“It’s a legitimate license. All your details, including your test results, ID information, medical records, etc., are now in the electronic archive of the Vehicle Administration. In three days, your paper file will be in the archive as well.” Zero’s voice was unchanging.

But Finn was amazed. How ridiculously impressive are you, Zero?!

“Can you get me a license plate then?” Finn asked after a moment.

Zero didn’t answer, but in just a moment, a pair of license plates and vehicle document appeared on the passenger seat. Seeing this, Finn gave Zero a thumbs up, “You’re awesome.”

“That will be 600 points. I’ll add it to your debt points.”

Finn, who had just started the car, immediately slammed on the brakes, “Wait, it takes points?”

Zero didn’t respond, but the answer was obvious.

“What the hell? Why didn’t you say so?” Finn was about to lose it. “This is compulsory trading, you realize? I want a refund.”

“No refunds.”

Finn was speechless. You’re really killing me here, aren’t you, Zero? Speaking of which, Finn suddenly remembered that Zero was supposed to be monitoring Robert Thomp.

“Did you get Robert Thomp’s information yet?” Finn thought it best to switch topics. Otherwise, he would have been seething with anger. It’s not easy for him to earn points, but Zero had now taken away a heap of them from him.. Was it easy for him to complete a mission?!
