Chapter 158 [(*^▽^*)]
Lin Leyou was completely shocked and utterly bewildered. "His longsword almost went straight into my eye just now. What makes him think I would still talk to him?"
Jiang Xiali was shocked, "Was it that critical?! You released your talent so quickly! You escaped death!"
Lin Leyou touched his chin. It wasn't that he reacted quickly; rather, he was completely stunned at the time, and neither his mind nor his body could react in time.
But I don't know where the consciousness that used the talent came from, it's really unbelievable even when I think back on it later.
If he were to do it all over again, he wasn't sure if he could unlock this talent and hide himself away.
That was really dangerous. It seems I need to be more careful wherever I go in the future.
After all, this time I was just looking at my phone, and when I looked up I saw a knife right in front of me. Who could react and respond in an instant?
We weren't on guard at all!
Fortunately, I have a talent, and this talent happens to be the one that is more difficult to trap others than to trap myself.
He was surprised himself, but no matter what, the most important thing now was that he was safe. "When will you arrive?"
Jiangxia Li said, "It'll be quick, it won't take more than two hours anyway, just wait."
Lin Wanyi said, "I didn't expect them to be so bold."
Jiang Xiali angrily told him that someone from the Bureau of Order Management had leaked Lin Leyou's location. Lin Wanyi was quite surprised, "Is that so? Is it true?"
Jiang Xiali said, "If it's fake, then tell me, how did Jiang Changdong know so accurately that Lin Leyou was over there?"
"He went there to meet a friend on short notice; it wasn't planned in advance. If we hadn't investigated his location last night, how would we have known he was there?"
"People would generally assume that Lin Leyou is resting at home, since he had just finished playing Werewolf before he got home."
Lin Wanyi sighed, "I never expected something like this to happen again... But thinking about it, it makes sense. If we hadn't specifically investigated, who would have known that Lin Leyou was out doing a mission so late at night instead of resting?"
Jiang Xia gritted her teeth, "We've caught them red-handed again. This time, we're going to take a big bite out of them!"
Otherwise, all those years of deep-seated hatred would have been left unvented.
When he wasn't paying attention, Lin Wanyi patted his head and comforted him, "Alright, alright, now that I know about this, I will definitely investigate it carefully when I get back, and I will definitely give him justice."
Jiang Xia slapped his hand away in anger, glared at him, and casually smoothed her hair again. "Hmph! That's for the best. Xiao You is my best friend!"
Lin Wanyi blinked. "Really? Best friends? You two haven't known each other for very long, have you?"
Jiang Xiali said, "So what? We're true friends, unlike those other nodding acquaintances who were completely useless!"
"Besides, I don't like them at all. They all treat me like a sucker. Xiao You is really great. I can be happy for the rest of my life if I can find a friend like him!"
Lin Wanyi moved closer to him, "You're so happy? What about me? Someone as amazing as me, if I were your friend, wouldn't you be happy for generations?"
Jiang Xiali was enraged by his shameless words, and was on the verge of exploding. "How dare you say that? In what lifetimes? Not even a few days!"
Lin Wanyi took things out of context, "Huh? If it wasn't just a few days, then that means you did have some happy times? So you were happy being friends with me?"
Ignoring Jiang Xiali's ugly and gloomy expression, he said with self-satisfaction, "Okay, alright, I understand, you don't need to explain anymore."
It's like if you explain it, it means that what he said is true.
Jiang Xiali's face remained grim, on the verge of exploding, but he caught a glimpse of his phone out of the corner of his eye, which was still on a call.
That is to say, Lin Leyou did not hang up the phone just now.
Lin Leyou said, "Don't feed me dog food over the phone!"
Jiang Xia was the first to feel embarrassed, "Ahem! It's nothing, it's nothing, um... we'll be there soon, don't worry, don't worry..."
Lin Leyou wanted to say that he wasn't in a hurry, but seeing how awkward he sounded, he didn't say anything more and just gave a faint reply.
The car in Jiangxia was driving very fast; at this speed, we would arrive very quickly.
Only then did he have the time and energy to observe Jiang Changdong standing outside the ghost wall. This man was Jiang Xiayue's father, and also the one who wanted to kill him.
It turns out that Jiang Xiaoyue's threat to kill him wasn't just empty talk; she was serious. And judging from how familiar Jiang Changdong was with the task, he must have done this kind of thing many times before.
Lin Leyou originally thought that Jiang Changdong, as Jiang Xiayue's father, would likely be the bald type with a fat head, just like Wang Xin in the Werewolf game.
But to my surprise, Jiang Changdong himself is quite good-looking; at least he's handsome.
However, his handsome appearance is mixed with a lot of scheming and greed, making him seem sinister. I guess not many people would be willing to associate with such a person.
Most of them are definitely partners with shared interests, the kind who will immediately sever ties if anything goes wrong.
Moreover... if they can find out their own location, they can definitely find out other people's locations as well. They can easily find out what mission the other person is doing and then sabotage it, or get the other person's exact location and then ambush and kill them.
Just like how I dealt with myself this time.
In that case, wouldn't Jiang Changdong have many innocent lives on his hands? Especially the one who leaked his location, who was supposedly an employee of the Public Order Administration.
This person must have known perfectly well why Jiang Changdong and his group were investigating these things, and knew that these people were likely to be killed by Jiang Changdong.
However, he still chose to leak this information for reasons such as personal gain or to maintain relationships.
He was an accomplice too!
They don't deserve forgiveness. In the end, their own letter of forgiveness might not be enough. They don't even know how many people they've harmed before.
Lin Leyou looked at the phone in front of her and said softly, "Lin Wanyi, this Jiang Changdong seems to be very skilled at this. Maybe he has done this kind of thing more than once before."
Before Lin Wanyi could speak, Jiangxia was already in an uproar.
"I knew he was no good! You're absolutely right! Why didn't I think of that before?"
"And the person who leaked your information, they were so skilled, it must have been more than their first collaboration with Jiang Changdong. This time they've really got a lot of leverage over you! Haha!"
Lin Wanyi didn't speak immediately. He stroked his chin and thought for a while. What Lin Leyou said actually made some sense.
However, if that's really the case, then this matter can't be investigated by one person alone; no, it can't be investigated by myself.
After all, almost everyone in the Bureau of Order Management knows about his relationship with Jiang Xiali; it involves Jiang Xiali's so-called best friend.
If I get involved myself, it's easy for people to think I'm colluding.
Therefore, it is safest to leave this matter to other members of the Bureau of Order Management to investigate. Of course, even if he investigates it himself, he will not be caught red-handed, since he really won't do anything underhanded.
It will just be a bit more troublesome and the process will be a bit longer, since a lot of things need to be checked and we need to check if any extra things have been added.
To avoid wasting time, let's leave it to someone else this time.
His gaze fell on Jiang Xiali. He decided to avoid her for the sake of this person.
Jiang Xiali suddenly looked up at him, "What? What's with that look!"
Lin Wanyi looked away. "It's nothing."
He then took out his phone and sent a message to his colleague, briefly telling them about the incident. Coincidentally, this colleague was resting at the headquarters of the Bureau of Order Management.
"Is this true? Why don't you investigate it yourself? Why do you make me investigate? Is there a conspiracy?"
Lin Wanyi: "It's not convenient for me to, because I've gotten involved with my friend."
"Your friend? Is it your friend?"
Lin Wanyi did not deny it, "Yes, although the results of my investigation will be the same, there will definitely be people who try to trip me up."
"I see, that makes sense. Okay then! I'll take care of this, but this time the credit will be mine."
Lin Wanyi didn't seem to care much about it. "Here you go!"
Jiang Xiali leaned closer and saw his phone screen, which was still displaying a chat window. "Huh? You entrusted this to someone else? Is that reliable?"
Lin Wanyi, "It's Hua Yun'an, whom you met before!"
Jiang Xiali thought for a moment before remembering that there was such a person. "What do you mean by 'before'? It's like you just met him not long ago. It's been five or six years already!"
Lin Wanyi was even more surprised, "You actually still remember him?"
He just casually mentioned that he had seen him before. Jiang Xiali usually has a bad memory, so how come he remembered this person?
Jiang Xiali was taken aback. "What's wrong? I remember he wasn't good enough?"
Lin Wanyi looked somewhat surprised. "That was five or six years ago, and you only met once. The total time together was less than half an hour. When did your memory become so good? Or is there something special about him that you remember?"
He looked aggrieved, as if he had been bullied by Jiang Xiali.
When Jiang Xiali saw him like this, she felt that he was up to no good. Her lips twitched, but instead of arguing with him as usual, she turned around and ignored him.
Lin Leyou was still staring blankly at his phone, so... how long was he supposed to wait?
During this time, Jiang Changdong kept taking out props from his backpack and fiddling with something while walking around nearby.
Is there really a tool that can pull him out of his own talent?
Or is it that Jiang Changdong can enter the area of his "ghost wall" from the outside?
joke!
He has the right to decide who gets in based on his own talent!
