Shadow picked up the wine bottle on the table, poured himself a glass, and said, "Bring me all the decipherable and undeciphered mysterious text files in the archives."
Qing Shen's eyes widened: "What are you going to do? Don't you want to live a normal life? Si Nianhua's translation has only just begun, and they haven't found anything useful yet."
“You don’t need to worry about that,” Shadow said. “Also, tell all the spies to use their best hawks and informants to turn the federal black market upside down. They don’t need anything else, but they need to find all the mysterious written documents!”
Old Shen stared in astonishment at the shadowy figure, wondering what had gotten into him in the middle of the night.
He said, "I can give you the Qing family's property now, but the black market... you should at least give the spies some time, after all, raiding a property takes time."
Shadow thought for a moment: "I'll only wait 24 hours."
Old Shen curled his lip: "It must be Qingchen who needs it. As soon as he's mentioned, you start acting unreasonably and without regard for rules."

...
Lakeside, Forbidden Land No. 10.
Qingye and the others returned from hunting, each carrying a wild boar.
Qingqu explained to Qingchen, "Young boss, we haven't ventured deep into the heartland, so we can only find this kind of common wild game for now. Maybe we can get some better food in a few days."
Qing Chen smiled and said, "It's already very good."
At this moment, Zard found another oil-refined fruit from somewhere and put it on his head. He fiddled with the fruit on his head and asked Qingchen, "Does it look good?"
Qing Chen recalled the rules of Forbidden Zone No. 10: "So beautiful, so beautiful, so beautiful..."
Zard chuckled and said, "A 7-day free limited-edition skin, how cool!"
Qing Chen: "..."
On the other side.
Actually, Ma Jingjing felt a little numb when she saw Zard.
Especially when I saw the saplings on the other person's head, I immediately recalled the fear of being dominated by saplings on the ski slopes more than three days ago.
Everything happened so fast that by the time Ma Jingjing saw Zard's little sapling, it was too late.
Before he could react, Zard pulled him into the snow pit.
So, when someone advised Ma Jingjing to curry favor with a powerful figure...
Ma Jingjing had just stood up when she saw Zard and sat down again...
Her thighs are too thick, I can't lift her up.
Anyone under the Lord of Daylight can walk sideways in the school; they can't just cling to his coattails.
When she first returned a few days ago, Ma Jingjing even enjoyed the secret thrill of 'we know who Qingchen is, but Qingchen doesn't know that we are also time travelers'.
The thought of this information advantage gave the four of them a slight thrill.
But now...
"Do you think... he might already know that we're using him to gain traffic at school? That Zard guy is quite active on the forums," Ma Jingjing asked cautiously.
“Principal Zheng’s secret-keeping skills,” Yi Wenbo calmly analyzed, “I guess Principal Zheng is at least an A-level expert. As long as the level doesn’t exceed his, no one inside the academy can reveal any information about that place to the outside world. Even the members of the Daylight Clan can’t be A-level. Qing Chen hasn’t reported to the academy yet, so the Daylight Clan members can’t reveal anything about that place to Qing Chen… At least he probably doesn’t know yet…”
Yi Wenbo meant that although he would die, he could at least delay his death...
At this moment, Li Mengyun said quietly from the side, "Have you all forgotten that he's a member of the school board? Even if he doesn't report it, he's not bound by the Secret Keeping Technique..."
Ma Jingjing paused for a moment, then immediately stood up and led the other three to Qing Chen and the others' campfire: "I'm sorry..."
His attitude was extremely sincere; he was practically kneeling before Qing Chen.
Qing Chen smiled and glanced at them: "It's alright, it's fine for you to post things on the academy forum. You're both smart, and you haven't touched on any secrets. You can continue posting, just be mindful of the limits. I saw you on campus earlier, but I didn't say hello."
Ma Jingjing was stunned for a moment, then immediately realized: "Big boss, you're at the academy?! Everyone said you haven't reported for duty yet."
“I’m here,” Qingchen nodded with a smile.
Yi Wenbo, quick-witted, replied: "Disguise."
Ma Jingjing understood, and asked curiously, "What is your position at the school... Oh, no, you probably can't say. By the way, you're a member of the board of directors. Which college do you think is the best?"
Qing Chen thought for a moment and replied, "I went to the School of Science and Technology. Although I've become a member of the school's board of directors, I still love learning..."
Chen Sui went to the Institute of Science and Technology.
At this moment, Qing Chen wanted to use Ma Jingjing and the others to confirm some people's suspicions about his identity.
Let Chen Sui take the blame more steadily.
As they were talking.
The shadow emerged from the woods again.
He was also holding a thick stack of documents in his arms.
Chapter 621, The Shadow Makes a Move
“Come on, see if you have what you need,” Shadow said, holding a stack of documents as he sat down by the campfire.
Ma Jingjing and the others were stunned by what they saw.
Although they saw shadows moving back and forth between the woods and the campfire, they didn't think much about where the shadows went.
The fact that the other party has suddenly returned from this forbidden, desolate place with a stack of documents is incredibly bizarre.
Especially at the very top of the list, there was an oven instruction manual.
Ma Jingjing looked at Qing Chen: "Boss, why do you need the oven manual? Are you going to use the oven here? There's no electricity."
Qing Chen: "...Yes, yes, yes."
Shadow, expressionless, picked up the top sheet of paper, tore it to shreds, and threw it into the fire: "Look at the others."
These materials are all fragmented.
Qingchen brought over a stack of documents and began to look at them one by one.
“A passage from the English version of Jin Ping Mei, wait, why is the author Ren He? This is useless.”
"The original papers on international breakthroughs in stem cell research... are useless, as these are already mature technologies."
"These are English lyrics copied by hand. They were probably copied by a junior high or high school student."
Qingchen laughed out loud halfway through reading it: "This is a fake 'artifact.' I guess the forger didn't even know what he wrote, so he just put words together. Let me translate it for you: My friend's father is his son's younger brother, my son is a watermelon, and bananas can write, but they write a little slowly. Hahaha, what kind of nonsense is this? The grammar is all wrong too."
The shadow beside him grew increasingly dark.
Little did he know that the treasures the Qing family kept hidden away were actually just these random and useless things.
At this moment, Qingchen took out a strange-looking pattern.
Mysterious and eerie.
Shadow's eyes lit up: "The experts at the Qing family have never been able to figure out what this thing is used for."
Qingchen and Yangyang looked at each other, and after a long hesitation, Qingchen said, "Health code..."
shadow:"?"
At this moment, Qingchen picked and chose from the documents, throwing all the English ones into the firepower.
Then there are the writing systems that even he can't understand, such as French, Spanish, Manchu, and so on.
Qing Chen said, "I'll write these down for now. I need to go back to the surface world to translate them and see what they are."
Upon hearing this, Shadow felt there was a chance, and hope immediately rose in his heart.
However, Yangyang leaned over and said, "I recognize all of these. This is a promotional poster, this is a rubbing of an inscription, the inscription says something about ancestor worship and expressing remembrance, this is a customs approval document, and what's this Thai version of the novel 'Spare Me, Great Lord'...?"
Qingchen looked at Yangyang: "How do you know so many languages?"
In just that short time, Yangyang displayed her ability to speak six languages. Is this a talent?
Yangyang paused for a moment: "Ahem, when I used to get lost, I would stay in the local area for a while. Actually, languages are easy to learn. If you stay in the local area for two or three months, you will know them all. I guess it's the same for Maki. She will naturally learn Chinese after two or three months."
Qingchen sighed, "You've gotten lost quite a lot."
Yangyang picked through everything quickly, throwing all the things Yingzi had just brought into the fire to burn as firewood.
The dignified Qing clan's shadow sat silently beside the campfire, his expression frozen as he watched the flames flicker and sway.
I just promised my brother I would find something useful, but I haven't found anything yet.
Qingchen looked at the shadow and said, "Actually, it's normal that we can't find it. It's said that the Li family patriarch spent hundreds of years collecting before he finally found the Zhunti Dharma. I just came to the Inner World to try my luck."
However, the more Qingchen tried to comfort him, the more Yingzi couldn't stand it.
“You guys wait here… No, it’s getting late, you should get some rest. I’m going out for a bit,” Shadow said, and then walked back into the woods.
He can't lose!
He has to give his younger brother what he wants!

The basement of Caramel Bar in City 10.
Old Shen was sitting in his chair, half asleep, when suddenly the Shadow Gate opened, startling him.
Qing Shen said irritably, "Why are you back again?"
Shadow asked with a grim face, "Have the spies started making their move yet?"
Old Shen had a slight toothache: "No, but we still need to make some preparations."
"Prepare what?" Shadow asked in return.
"Prepare a reason, then have the PCA intelligence offices at all levels contact the black market and get them to hand over their goods," Old Shen said.
Shadow calmly said, "Don't worry about that. Do I have time to waste with them? Let's do it!"
Old Shen put on his glasses: "Are you serious?"
“Seriously, we’ll move everyone except Su Xingzhi in City 18. We don’t need the spies to do anything; let them stay hidden,” Shadow said. “This is, after all, capital meant for Qingchen; we can’t let me squander it all.”
