Chapter 140 Chess Game

Feng Tianning smiled at Captain Liu and said:

"Remember the ancient tomb I mentioned a few days ago?"

"I guess Yuchan is from there."

Captain Liu was about to speak when he was interrupted by a sudden call from Director Cai.

His expression became a little solemn. After hanging up the phone, he looked at Feng Tianning with hesitation, wanting to say something.

"What's wrong?"

Captain Liu sighed and said:

"The person I wanted to meet offline has arrived and specifically asked you to help him deal with a strange incident."

Feng Tianning frowned and thought for a long time before he uttered a name uncertainly:

"Zhang Ping's family?"

Captain Liu nodded, without asking how she knew the man's name, and said helplessly:

"The higher-ups are asking you to deal with Zhang Ping's family affairs first. After all, you've already promised to help him in front of the netizens."

"What about the zombie thing?"

Captain Liu was speechless about the leaders above him. They tried every means to drive Feng Tianning out, but now they wanted others to deal with their troubles.

"Put the zombie issue on hold for now. You can leave for the southwest in seven days."

Feng Tianning nodded and had no objection. She had personally promised Zhang Ping's family to let him join the special case team, so it should be her responsibility to solve the problem.

But Xuan Gou Chen beside him exploded instantly, even unconsciously amplifying his voice several degrees:

"Who gave the order?"

"Tianning is currently plagued by various news reports. I think the Special Case Team also wants her to leave on her own initiative. Why are they asking her to help the Special Case Team solve strange incidents now?"

Xuan Gou Chen sneered, with a hint of mockery in his eyes:

"This is really not treating us agents as human beings. Are we just objects that can be summoned and dismissed at will by the leader?"

Xuan Gou Chen was very angry, so his words were naturally sarcastic.

Captain Liu looked at Feng Tianning with some embarrassment and said:

"Tianning, Zhang Ping's family specifically asked for you, and the special case team is having a hard time."

"Not as good as you..."

Although he was also very angry about the above actions, he could do nothing about it.

He was just a small team leader with the lowest performance and had little say.

Feng Tianning was silent for a moment, then saw the helplessness in Captain Liu's eyes and smiled.

"I can go."

"Tianning!"

Xuan Gou Chen called her out with some regret. If Feng Tianning left like this, her leaders would probably think she was a pushover and would have to bear all the grievances.

Feng Tianning gave her a soothing look and continued:

"But I have conditions."

"After the matter of Zhang Ping's family is resolved, no matter whether I can find out the truth about the zombies or not, no matter whether I stay in the special case team or not, you can no longer restrict my freedom."

"No matter what I want to do, the special case team has no right to interfere or stop it."

"no."

Captain Liu rejected her without even thinking about it.

If a cultivator suddenly became free from the constraints of the special case team's regulations and was able to use spiritual power wantonly, wouldn't society be in chaos?

"Captain Liu, you can call Director Cai first."

Feng Tianning's face showed a more determined smile.

Xuan Gou Chen quietly approached her and said:

"Director Cai will never agree to this."

"This is a rule established by the Chinese cultivation world for thousands of years. Cultivators must abide by the rules and cannot arbitrarily harm ordinary people. Violators will be treated as evil cultivators."

"Tian Ning, even the ancient martial arts families can't avoid these rules. How could Director Cai possibly agree?" "Even if he agrees, the leaders of the special case team won't agree!"

Feng Tianning smiled mysteriously and his eyes fell on Captain Liu.

After a long while, he finally hung up the phone and said in disbelief:

"Director Cai agreed."

"But the premise is that you don't persecute ordinary people. Other than that, the Special Case Team will not interfere with anything you do."

"How is this possible?"

Xuan Gou Chen confirmed it several times until she heard that the order was issued by the highest-level leader, and then she believed it completely.

"But... why?" she murmured.

Captain Liu also looked at Feng Tianning with confusion, wanting her to answer his questions.

Feng Tianning smiled and said:

"What happened in the past few months since I joined the Special Case Team?"

Captain Liu was stunned for a moment, then thought for a moment and said:

"Yellow Skin came to find you, and later it was involved in the matter of the Sakura Country wanting to destroy the dragon vein."

"Later, you wiped out almost all of their monks' association, and after a trip to the Qinling Mountains, you foiled their plot."

"Later, I went to the mysterious area of ​​Kyoto and brought the Fu brothers and sisters out. I also met Long Da and his group, and implicated several reclusive ancient martial arts families. Then, there was the matter of the zombies in the southwest and the ancient tomb..."

As Captain Liu spoke, his voice became smaller and smaller.

It seemed that since Feng Tianning joined the special case team, in just a few months, they had experienced more bizarre cases than in the past year.

In the past, it was rare to have an A-level case, but in the past few months, almost every case has been an SSS-level case, and Feng Tianning is always the first to discover it.

Even if it's a small matter, as long as she is sent out, it will definitely involve a more troublesome matter.

Now the small dark room of the special case team is full of evil spirits, and even the usually quiet back mountain has become a gathering place for monsters.

Seeing that Captain Liu was silent, Feng Tianning also spoke slowly:

"I have indeed caused a lot of trouble these days, but even without me, these things would have happened."

"Rather than causing more trouble in the future and having the special case team come to help me clean up the mess, it would be better to just 'eliminate' me from the cultivation world."

"Cull?"

Xuan Gou Chen frowned, not understanding what she meant.

Feng Tianning sneered:

"It's just a metaphor. They don't want the special case team to be held responsible for my affairs, so they allow me to be free from the rules within a reasonable range."

"I just hope that if I encounter such high-level cases in the future, I will handle them myself and it will have nothing to do with the Special Case Team."

Feng Tianning didn't want the rules to be completely invalid, so she made an impossible request at the beginning and waited for the leaders above to come and "bargain" with her.

Now it seems that the results are better than she imagined.

This way, she can focus on catching evil spirits and accumulating merit in the future without having to worry about the special case team's affairs.

Captain Liu's face showed a little more understanding, but he still said with some disapproval:

"But this is too irresponsible. How could you possibly handle so many major cases?"

"If anything goes wrong, not only will you be in trouble, but the special case team will also be implicated."

Xuan Gou Chen also understood at this time and sneered:

"Tian Ning can't do it, but she still has the Feng family behind her."

"The special case team wants to shift the responsibility of handling strange incidents to the ancient martial arts family and force us to come out."

"Now it's the Feng family, maybe the next one will be the Xuan family and the Fu family. It's really a big game."
