The clerk pondered for a moment. "We have various brands of body wash here. If you're not satisfied with this one, I can recommend others."
"That's not what I meant," Lu Fei waved his hand, reorganizing his thoughts. "I mean, do you have anything that, when applied to the surface of the body, creates a lather, and after rinsing, leaves the entire body feeling smooth and removes sweat and dirt?"
The clerk was bewildered, a look of confusion on her face.
*Does this person have some serious illness?* she thought. She shook her head hesitantly. "I'm sorry, I don't quite understand what you mean."
"Don't we all use body wash when we bathe? What is this thing you're talking about?"
"Are you sure you've never seen it before?"
Lu Fei's voice began to tremble with excitement.
The clerk continued to shake her head.
"I've never even heard of it."
Lu Fei remained skeptical. He remembered the eunuch transmigrator mentioning that he had already invented everything possible and even became wealthy and married several wives because of it.
But now?
It shouldn't be like this; he had explicitly mentioned that body wash had already been invented.
*Could this bastard be lying to me? That he actually doesn't know the formula for body wash and deliberately created a sense of crisis for me?* Lu Fei thought to himself.
Unwilling to accept this, he dragged his bandaged arm and visited several more supermarkets, and even a department store. However, the answers he received were astonishingly consistent: everyone in this world used this thing called body wash for bathing, and contract beasts were no exception.
Emerging from the mall, Lu Fei stopped in his tracks, his eyes blazing as he gazed at the city's neon-lit night. A barely concealed smile played on his lips.
This world had no body wash! No MSG!
I, Lu Fei, am going to get rich!
...
In a VIP hospital room in Ping Town.
Several people sat on the sofa, their fashionable attire clearly indicating they were influential figures. Beside them stood a young man in black linen, and a teenager sat in a wheelchair, his body wrapped in thick bandages.
A middle-aged man took a deep puff of his cigar and asked in a deep voice,
"Have you found out who that young man is?"
The young man in black linen handed a document to the middle-aged man and replied,
"Dean, we have investigated thoroughly. This young man's name is Lu Fei, a first-year student at Cang Town Beast Taming Academy. His background is clean; he has been an orphan since childhood and was adopted by an orphanage."
"An orphan? So he has no family background?"
The middle-aged man's eyes glinted with playful, chilling intent. This man was Fang Dagang.
On that day in the Yanbei region, he had been severely beaten by Zhou Nanfeng, but he had woken up as soon as he was sent to the hospital. With so many students watching, it was too humiliating for him, as the dean of an academy, to be beaten in full view of everyone. He simply feigned unconsciousness.
Fang Dagang fiercely pressed the lit end of his cigar into the ashtray.
"Since that's the case, then all our efforts should be focused on dealing with Zhou Nanfeng!"
He turned to a man sitting to his left. "Lawyer Zhao, you know what needs to be done about this matter, right?"
The lawyer, surnamed Zhao, wore rimless gold-framed glasses, giving him a refined appearance.
However, his voice was like fingernails scraping across glass, sinister and unpleasant.
"Heh heh, Dean Fang, please rest assured. Although the Zhou family is powerful, in this matter, I will ensure that a small issue is blown out of proportion. Once this trial concludes, I will make the Zhou family willingly hand over their key projects in Cang Town!"
Fang Dagang nodded slightly and added.
"That's not enough! I want to use this incident to suppress the Cang Town Beast Taming Academy as well!"
"Oh, and be generous with the bribes for Judge Zhao. Go all out, and you won't be shortchanged when this is over!"
Lawyer Zhao smiled indifferently.
"Don't worry, leave it all to me!"
In the wheelchair, Fang Lin, who had been unable to interject, finally couldn't help himself and said timidly,
"Dad, is this really okay? What if they find some clue and prove what that kid said is true? Will it implicate you?"
Fang Dagang glared at his son, clearly displeased.
Lawyer Zhao chuckled.
"Second Young Master, please don't worry. Firstly, there are no surveillance devices in that area, so it's simply a case of each side having their own word against the other, with no evidence. Secondly, you are severely injured, and the Dean was also heavily injured by the opponent. So many people present can testify. As long as I make a big deal out of this matter, even if they have ten thousand mouths, they won't be able to explain it clearly!"
"Finally."
Lawyer Zhao chuckled.
"The judge of the Wenmin City Beast Tamer Court is my uncle. I will visit him tomorrow!"
"With that said, do you have anything else to worry about, Second Young Master?"
After hearing Lawyer Zhao's words, Fang Lin's face immediately lit up with excitement!
The next moment, his expression turned incredibly ferocious, and he said fiercely,
"I want this kid to spend the rest of his life in prison!"
Lawyer Zhao smiled calmly, looking confident.
Fang Dagang was disappointed in his son's reaction, seeing him as too green. He panicked at the slightest incident, unlike himself, who could quickly decide to feign death even in such an awkward situation.
A true man must be able to bend and stretch!
He was absolutely confident in this lawsuit, his confidence stemming from the connections he had already established. The judge for this trial, as well as the high-ranking officials from the Wenmin City government who would be present, would all be on his side!
This was a lawsuit, but in essence, it was a clash of connections!
His Zhou family had a certain standing in Cang Town, but Fang Dagang was confident that in the entire Wenmin City, his Fang family's influence was definitely superior to the Zhou family's!
A conspiracy was quietly unfolding. Just as everyone was about to leave.
The young man in black linen suddenly reminded them,
"Dean, there's one more piece of information about this young man named Lu Fei that I need to add."
Fang Dagang frowned slightly.
"Speak."
"Not long ago, in the grade competition at Cang Town Beast Taming Academy, this Lu Fei won first place, defeating the second son of Chen Zhanpeng, the president of the Cang Town Beast Tamer Association."
Fang Dagang waved his hand, somewhat impatient.
"I already know that. Lin mentioned it!"
The young man in black paused and added in a serious tone, "But I also learned that at the subsequent awards ceremony, Elder Chu Huainan, one of the Ten Elders, specifically met with this young man and seemed to attach great importance to him!"
After speaking, the young man in black gazed at Fang Dagang, hoping to gauge his current mood. As a secretary, he was skilled at reading people.
However, Fang Dagang appeared unusually calm.
He casually uttered a sentence before letting everyone leave.
"When a student of my academy wins first place, I will also say a few words to them. Don't bother me with such unfounded matters!"
