Lin Yang frowned: "So you mean we should give up investigating Takahashi?"

Who exactly is this person? Could they be in cahoots with Takahashi? If they are in cahoots, then what is their purpose in coming here?

Could there be a trap lurking in the shadows?

“You don’t need to doubt my identity. I’m not from Takahashi’s faction, and I don’t belong to any of your factions.”

The mysterious person's voice was deep and hoarse, and coupled with the loose black robe they wore, Lin Yang couldn't even tell whether they were male or female, so how could he just believe them?

"Since you asked me to come out and told me so much information, then at least we are not enemies."

"Since you are not an enemy, why do you need to hide?"

Lin Yang smiled faintly, speaking as if he were just chatting casually.

But as soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly attacked, his target being the black robe where the other party was hiding!

succeed!

Lin Yang forcefully pulled the black robe from his hand, ripped it off, and a smug smile appeared on his face: "I apologize for the intrusion!"

The black robe fell to the ground with a thud.

The smile on Lin Yang's face gradually stiffened and disappeared.

They noticed that beneath the other person's black robe was a white robe.

The white robe completely covered the other person's body, and although the other person did not wear a white robe on their face, they wore a white fox mask that looked exactly like them.

"I knew you would do it."

Seeing Lin Yang's expression, the other party smiled smugly. Although Lin Yang couldn't see the other party's face, he knew that the other party was definitely smiling.

"You knew I was capable of violence?"

Lin Yang slumped back in his chair, his voice slightly deep. How come the other person seemed to know him so well?

Could it be someone he knows?

"Don't bother thinking about it. You don't know me; it's just that I happened to have seen you before," the man in black robes smiled.

"I mean no harm. We have the same goal. I just wanted to remind you."

"If you don't believe me, then forget it."

The man in black robes didn't seem to care much about Lin Yang's chanting. After speaking, he casually shrugged and was about to leave.

Lin Yang's expression turned cold: "Want to leave? At least show your face!"

The silver needles were unleashed, aimed directly at the black-robed man's pressure point to immobilize him!

Unfortunately, the man in black was on guard this time and easily dodged Lin Yang's attack.

Without hesitation, Lin Yang attacked ruthlessly, throwing a left hook at the mask of the man in black.

Whether they are friend or foe, he is determined to see the true face behind their mask today!

The other party was no pushover either. He was just caught off guard before, but once he was on guard, his skills were actually on par with Lin Yang's!

It might even be better!

No matter how hard Lin Yang tried, he couldn't remove the other person's mask.

However, after this battle, Lin Yang was finally certain that no matter who the other party was, at least they did not have much malice towards him.

Otherwise, the opponent could have killed him on the spot during the previous battle.

Lin Yang, panting heavily, plopped back down in his seat.

"What exactly is your identity?"

"Why are you helping me tell me so much?"

The man in black did not answer Lin Yang's question. He straightened his slightly crooked mask, his tone revealing neither joy nor anger.

"Stay with the Rock Gang, and you'll find out later."

After speaking, the man in the black robe turned and left.

Lin Yang gritted his teeth as he watched the black-robed man's departing figure.

Since the other party wants him to stay so badly, then he'll stay and see what this elusive guy is really up to!

That's how it is. At the moment, I can't figure out this person's identity from among the people I know.

"However, I have decided to stay with the Panlong Gang. I will not leave until I deal with Takahashi and the forces behind him, or until I find out the identity of the man in black."

Lin Yang smiled and looked at Shi Xiao, the leader of the Panlong Gang: "Leader Shi, you won't kick me out, will you?"

"How is that possible!"

Shi Xiao suddenly stood up: "Brother Lin can stay as long as he wants. Someone, find Brother Lin a better place to stay!"

"Since we're going to stay here permanently, we should naturally prepare better things for ourselves."

The underlings of the Panlong Gang responded and went out to prepare things for Lin Yang to stay in.

"But Brother Lin Yang, wouldn't your wife be a little unhappy if you stayed here for too long?"

"Or I could make room for my sister-in-law."

Lin Yang chuckled: "That's really unnecessary."

Shi Xiao scratched his head and remained silent.

“Weiwei isn’t used to living here. Besides, I’m not here to have fun. I’ll be too busy to take care of her. I’ll bring her some gifts when I come back.”

"If that's the case, then that's for the best."

Shi Xiao burst into laughter: "You and I, brothers, have been busy for quite a few days. Why don't we have a drink together?"

"Wouldn't it be wonderful if we could have a good sleep afterward?"

Lin Yang nodded in agreement.

As Shi Xiao poured the wine into his glass, he was about to exchange a few polite words when he received a phone call.

"What? You said you have news about Er Gouzi?"

Er Gouzi was Shi Xiao's trusted henchman who suddenly disappeared from the gang.

The person on the other end responded, "Yes."

Shi Xiao was overjoyed.

"But he disappeared again soon after." The words from the other end were like a bucket of cold water poured over my head.

Shi Xiao was breathing heavily through his nose: "Can you please stop breathing so heavily when you talk?"

The person on the other end was startled and dared not speak.

Lin Yang thought for a moment and said, "Since Er Gou has appeared, it means that he is at least still alive. I just don't know if he will be bullied by those perverts."

"How about this, I won't drink this wine for now. I'll go check out the place where Er Gouzi was last seen. Maybe I'll find some new clues."

"good."

After thinking for a moment, Shi Xiao nodded in agreement: "Then I'll have to trouble you, Brother Lin."

Lin Yang smiled and waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.

The last place Er Gouzi appeared and disappeared was a recreational fishing spot in the suburbs of the city, which was usually deserted.

There are only more people on Saturdays and Sundays. The young man here is here to exchange goods with people.

According to my younger brother, when he saw Er Gouzi, Er Gouzi was bowing and calling a group of little bastards "Taijun" (a derogatory term for Japanese soldiers). He was afraid of being discovered, so he listened for a while and then left.

Because of the distance, the younger brother didn't even have time to see the face of the person opposite him clearly.

"This place, putting everything else aside, is indeed very suitable for murder and body disposal."

Lin Yang looked at the empty cliffs surrounded by trees, flowers, and a river and sighed.

"There's a bottomless abyss ahead. Let's see where you think you can run now!"

A series of hurried and disordered footsteps came from not far behind Lin Yang.

Lin Yang was taken aback, frowned, and hid behind an ancient locust tree.

He saw a figure, whose face was obscured and whose body was covered in blood, stumbling and running toward him.

The figure seemed to have spotted Lin Yang. It paused in its run towards Lin Yang and turned to run in the opposite direction, as if it didn't want to be a burden to Lin Yang.

Unfortunately, the group of people chasing after him had already spotted Lin Yang.

"Who are those people over there? Now that we've seen them, we can't let them live!"
