The definition of a high-intelligence murder.
1. The killer usually possesses a high IQ.
2. Generally, the act of murder possesses a high degree of concealment, with the killer using indirect means to achieve direct outcomes.
3. When the victim receives the fatal blow, the killer usually has a solid alibi.
Since his resurrection, Ren Zhong has told many lies and deceived many people.
He has also, self-righteously, made many grand statements that were often somewhat idealistic and biased.
This doesn’t mean his level is only that; it’s just that in specific environments, his thinking encounters specific interferences, and when facing different people, whether it is what he says or his internal psychological activities, there is always something worthy of scrutiny, debate, or even improvement.
But when he truly calms down and adopts a rigorous academic attitude to resolutely do certain things, even without the help of the time spiral, as long as he acquires enough information in advance, Ren Zhong indeed manages to have everything connected seamlessly with foresight.
This daytime, Ren Zhong rarely slacked off, not participating in daytime hunting, instead spending the entire day soaking in the town.
In the morning, he completed the cash-out of Far Voyage Heavy Industries stocks in his own prefab room.
Although the amount involved was more than ten times larger than before, he had become accustomed to the brutal nature of the Source Star stock market.
Successful in selling the stocks, the sale price per stock was 769.4 points, with a total increase of 458.95% compared to the purchase price of 137.65.
After deducting taxes and commissions, the total returned capital was 383,832.23 points, with a net profit of 314,990.02 points.
Ren Zhong had worried that his funds of several hundred thousand might cause some minor ripples in the market, leading to slight changes in stock prices.
Now it seemed he was overthinking it.
After he made his move, the price per stock of Far Voyage Heavy Industries continued to climb, reaching a peak of 769.44 points one minute later, then smoothly declined to 763.01, starting to fluctuate slightly, exactly matching the numbers in his memory.
Ren Zhong understood.
Even funds that could be converted into a purchasing power of over three million Renminbi were still so insignificant in this era of interstellar productivity that they could be entirely ignored, unworthy of mention.
Even if this ant-like butterfly exerted all its strength to flap its wings, it didn’t stir up any waves worth noting on the Source Star.
The wheel of history continued to roll forward, ruthless and steady, along the plan of Source Star Society’s upper structure, towards a direction he temporarily couldn’t grasp.
After pooling together all the funds, and accounting for various incomes from short-term trading, morning hunts, daytime hunts, Fourth Level Wrist Watch hypnosis, Second Level Professionals’ wages, big or small, and deducting the costs required for equipment maintenance and daily life training, Ren Zhong’s total capital reached 428,705.75 points.
Then he went to the Military Weapon Store, brushing past Fatty Wang who came as agreed in a corner of the mall’s shelf.
The two did not exchange many pleasantries.
Wang Zhaofu just handed the key to the Qingfeng Heavy Truck to Ren Zhong, then lowered his voice, "As per your request, the truck is parked in a closed parking spot. I came in through the Mayor’s exclusive passage at five in the morning, trying to avoid being seen by others."
Ren Zhong nodded, "Good. Thanks for the trouble."
Ren Zhong settled the remaining amount at the agreed after-tax price, totaling over sixty-three thousand points, leaving the remaining funds at 361,027.97 points.
During the payment, Ren Zhong slightly intimidated Wang Zhaofu with his effortless and casual way of handling the money, but Wang Zhaofu didn’t ask further.
Shortly after, Ren Zhong bid farewell to Fatty Wang and went to Ju Qingmeng’s office to discuss in detail the upcoming equipment upgrade plan.
"I bought three special parts from Wang Zhaofu, specifically... please help me with these when the time comes..."
"Additionally, I need to upgrade the circuit system, transmission system... all eight major systems to the highest level."
"When everything is set, I want the output power limit of this Second Level Exoskeleton to reach exactly 1100 kilowatts. Of course, I still don’t wish for drastic changes in appearance."
This time, by the 24th day, the standards Ren Zhong set for his equipment had already surpassed the peak state of the 45th day in the previous timeline.
Although his data at this moment had not yet caught up with the last time, with the amplifier’s function, he can already unleash his previous peak strength when fighting some specific people he had encountered before.
After listening to his requirements, Ju Qingmeng started clattering away, making a budget and checking inventory.
After a long time, she rubbed her temples and said, "It’s a coincidence, although the stuff you want is rare, the storeroom indeed has all of them. But I have a question."
