"Hehe, if you want to thank someone, thank the captain. It was all the captain's decision. We all work under the captain's wise and powerful leadership."
Banggu chuckled awkwardly.
At the same time, he cursed inwardly, thinking, "This ancestor who was sent in from above is not easy to fool."
Fortunately, he was smart enough to hand this guy over to Xu An.
Otherwise, he would have a terrible headache.
"Ahem, for this mission, Xu An is the team leader, and Zhang Lingxuan is... the deputy team leader!"
Banggudao.
"Why is he the team leader? I'm just the deputy."
"I want to be the team leader!"
Zhang Lingxuan retorted, unconvinced.
Banggu looked helpless.
Xu An gave a cold laugh.
"You can't even do a simple math problem like 2 x 5 = 16, and you're the team leader? Are you afraid we won't die fast enough?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Lingxuan immediately became displeased, put her hands on her hips, and angrily questioned:
"I can't figure it out! I can't figure out how to make 2516!"
Xu An smiled calmly and looked at Zhang Lingxuan, saying:
"Oh? Then show me how you calculated 25 as 16."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Lingxuan suddenly realized what was happening and was immediately dumbfounded.
"Xu An, you're deliberately lying to me!"
Knock knock knock! ...
Bang Gu, feeling pain in his bones, tapped the table and looked at the two of them.
"This is the captain's order!"
Xu An and Zhang Lingxuan exchanged a glance and had no choice but to accept it.
Watching the two leave headquarters in the elevator, Banggu let out a long sigh of relief.
"Tsk, I didn't realize you were so smart."
"Cough cough..."
Xuanmao's figure quietly appeared beside Banggu, and he said with a sigh.
People like Zhang Lingxuan, who got in through connections and have powerful backgrounds, are their biggest headache.
"The Spirit Alliance sent her in just so they could get closer to Xu An."
"Alright, I'll just put them together!"
"That guy from the Spirit Alliance should at least do me some favor."
Banggu replied matter-of-factly, looking quite wise.
Outside.
Xu An and Zhang Lingxuan left the headquarters; it was already past midnight.
"Team leader, get in the car!"
Seeing that Xu An wasn't driving, Zhang Lingxuan waved generously and pointed to the sports car not far away.
Xu An didn't recognize the brand, but it looked expensive.
Xu An didn't stand on ceremony and got into Zhang Lingxuan's passenger seat.
However, the next second, Xu An regretted it.
Zhang Lingxuan pulled out a small notebook and began to examine it intently.
He was still muttering to himself...
"Okay, first... patrol the vehicle once."
Bang! Door open, get out of the car, inspect the vehicle—all done in one smooth, fluid motion.
"Patrol complete, fasten your seatbelts..."
"Start the engine, adjust the rearview mirror... left foot on the clutch, right foot on the brake..."
"Wait a minute, why is there an extra pedal?"
"The instructor said to use the left foot for the clutch and the right foot for the brake, so which foot should I use for the extra pedal?"
Zhang Lingxuan looked at the three pedals below, seemingly bewildered.
In the passenger seat, Xu An silently unbuckled his seatbelt and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
"Um... Zhang Lingxuan."
"I suddenly remembered that my home is not far from here, it's quite close to walk there, it only takes a few hours."
"Please drive carefully on your way. I'll... I'll be going now!"
With Zhang Lingxuan's skills, he was afraid he would lose his life to this guy.
"Sit down!"
"Don't you trust my skills?! You're not allowed to leave, I'm the one delivering today!"
Zhang Lingxuan seemed to feel that her driving skills were being questioned, and immediately retorted angrily.
Helpless, Xu An hurriedly fastened his seatbelt.
"Is it possible... Zhang Lingxuan, this is a manual transmission, and the rightmost one is... the accelerator?"
Xu An whispered a reminder.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Lingxuan suddenly realized what was going on.
"Oh, right, right, I forgot, this is a manual transmission!"
With a roar of the engine, the car... remained as steady as a mountain, not moving an inch!
"Hey, I stepped on the gas."
"Those damn liars who sell cars! I spent so much money on this car, and it broke down after only a few days."
"I'm going to file a complaint against them!"
Zhang Lingxuan was furious, her face flushed red, and she pounded the steering wheel with her fists.
"Um... how about you release the clutch a little..."
Xu An was speechless; at that moment, he truly regretted it.
If he had known, he would have gone back.
Swish! ...
A strong push came from behind, and the car shot forward like a wild donkey.
"Oh ho!"
"How was my driving? How was it?"
"I am the Akina Mountain Speed King!"
Zhang Lingxuan shouted excitedly.
After a while, the car finally stopped safely outside Xu An's villa.
When Xu An got off the bus, his legs were already trembling.
Click! ...
Zhang Lingxuan got out of the car decisively, locked the door, and rushed into the house with her head covered.
"what?"
Xu An was completely dumbfounded.
"Oh dear, I'm so sleepy, and my place is too far away."
"I'll sleep here for a while, then I'll leave when I wake up."
"I'm not going to eat you!"
Without saying a word, Zhang Lingxuan rushed into the room.
With a kick of both feet, shoes flew everywhere, and with a leap, he landed straight on the sofa.
The next second, they were fast asleep!
Xu An stood blankly at the door, too shocked to speak.
Back upstairs, Anu wasn't there; she must have gone on a mission.
