Chapter 196 An Tan
The next day, Chen Chuan turned on the radio early in the morning. It was still reporting yesterday's events, and he also opened an anonymous hotline, inviting citizens of Yangzhi City to call and tell about the evil deeds of those powerful families.
This move was very powerful, stirring up the emotions of many citizens and making them completely stand on the side of justice.
However, not many people in Yangzhi have the courage to curse, even if it is an anonymous call. So don’t be fooled by the hotlines ringing one after another. Many of them are arranged in advance, but what they say should be true. Many of them are quite detailed and can stand up to scrutiny.
At this moment, the phone in the living room suddenly rang. He went over to pick it up, said a few words, and immediately moved the receiver away a little. Ding Jiao's loud voice came out from it.
"I'm telling you, bro, you're so awesome! You don't know, I wanted to go there yesterday. When I got to the door, I saw all of them were Wu Yi's students. They weren't afraid of making a fool of themselves. Their aura was so overwhelming that my calves were shaking.
But then I thought, what am I afraid of? My buddy is Chen Chuan, the best one. My back straightened up, my legs stopped shaking, and then…"
"And you went home?"
“Right… not right!”
Ding Jiao said quickly, "I didn't run away from the battlefield. You didn't see me because one of my friends was so overwhelmed by the momentum that he peed himself on the spot. I was loyal to you, Xiao Chuan, and to that friend as well, so I sent him back to change his pants. But who knew that when I came back, you guys had all dispersed."
"The friend you are talking about is not you, right?" Chen Chuan said with a smile.
"How is that possible!" Ding Jiao's voice suddenly rose. "That friend is..." He suddenly stopped talking. "I can't do anything shameful. I can't say my buddy's name casually..."
Chen Chuan smiled as he mumbled a lot of words, then found a chance to ask, "Are you okay over there?"
"I'm fine. Why are you asking this question?" Ding Jiao was a little surprised.
Chen Chuan said: "It may not be peaceful recently."
"Yeah, things have been pretty turbulent lately. The Blood Scar Gang has been beaten so badly by the Iron Chain Gang that they can't even raise their heads. I heard many of them have fled outside the city. The only remaining major gang is the Iron Chain Gang, but they can't do the Blood Scar Gang's business and they don't stay in the city, so there's nothing to worry about."
Chen Chuanshuo said: "In short, be careful."
"Alright! You know more than me now, so I'll listen to you."
Chen Chuan chatted with him for a while before hanging up the phone, feeling a lot more relaxed.
He glanced outside. He had no plans to go out for the next two days. To Yang Zhi, the current situation looked the same as usual, but in fact the situation was very tense and something might happen.
So he simply trained at home. Although he couldn't practice sword moves, it didn't hinder his boxing moves and breathing techniques. Even in a small space, there were still ways to practice.
At noon, after lunch, Chen Chuan was looking through some materials in his study when the phone rang in the living room. He walked over. After the person on the other end confirmed it was him, he first read out the number on the call-up notice, then said, "Student Chen Chuan, please come to the alley entrance. We have a mission that requires your cooperation."
Chen Chuan said, "I'll be there right away." Then he put down the phone.
He originally thought that he would have to wait for a while, but he didn't expect that the order would arrive the next day. So he changed his clothes, went back to pick up the Xuejun knife that he had prepared long ago, picked up a box, and came out of the yard.
But when he reached the alley, he saw an acquaintance.
"Special Commissioner Feng?"
The middle-aged man opposite wearing a windbreaker and a top hat was actually Old Feng, whom he had seen at the edge of the wilderness.
Special Commissioner Feng also laughed: "Student Chen, you are accompanying us this time. Well, we can be considered old partners."
Chen Chuan nodded happily. He welcomed this. Commissioner Cao was a man of high rank and his attitude was unpredictable. He always felt that he was hiding something very secretive.
He still preferred to deal with the person in front of him. Commissioner Feng felt more like a kind and gentle senior who was leading the way, and he was more humane.
He walked up to Lao Feng, shook hands, and said, "It's so hot, and the special envoy is wearing this..."
Lao Feng smiled and said, "I'm used to it."
Chen Chuan didn't ask any more questions. Special Envoy Feng was also a fighter, so he shouldn't be afraid of the heat. Besides, there might be some weapons hidden in this windbreaker, which might have some special purpose.
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Lao Feng said, "Brother Chen, let's find a place to talk."
Chen Chuan thought for a moment and said, "There's a small park nearby. Some people go there to enjoy the cool air at night, but there aren't many people there during the day. Let's go over there and talk."
Lao Feng agreed. So the two of them walked along the road for about ten minutes and came to a park. There was a pond full of lotus leaves, a few lotus flowers standing there, and golden-red fish shadows occasionally passed by below.
Old Feng took a look and said, "The carp in Yangzhi City are indeed very big."
Chen Chuan glanced down and saw that the carp had grown to over a meter and a half. This was the normal length of Yangzhi carp, and he was used to seeing it. He said, "Yes, Yangzhi's fish are this big."
Old Feng commented, "The water here is truly special." He instinctively glanced around, his expression straightening as he said, "Student Chen, let me tell you about our mission."
Chen Chuan's expression also became serious.
"The operation to encircle and suppress Molan Company is underway, but our first priority is not to target Molan Company, but to eliminate some other forces."
"Other forces..." Chen Chuan thought thoughtfully.
Old Feng said in a deep voice, "These forces are accustomed to taking advantage of troubled waters. If we don't eliminate them in advance, it will cause many accidents and losses. Especially since there are some foreign forces involved. They don't care about the lives of the citizens and will only try to make the situation more chaotic. That is even more intolerable."
Chen Chuan asked, "Is there a resistance organization here?"
"The resistance group also needs to be dealt with, but there are other people to deal with it, so we don't need to worry about it. We need to deal with an elite team sent by the Antan Company.
This company's business is very extensive, involving arms, drugs, medicines, implants, and it also undertakes employment, smuggling and other businesses. It has branches all over the world, and wherever there is war, there is the presence of this company.
I believe you should have read the information. Molan Company ordered a large number of fighting mantises, including a large number of high-energy nutrients. Without these nutrients, the role that these fighting creatures can play will be very limited.
Now the official supply channels have been blocked by us and cannot be shipped in. Molan Company can only collect them through the black market and smuggling channels.
I've received news that the Antan Company team has taken on this cargo transport mission and will deliver the goods the day after tomorrow at the latest. The meeting point is in the wilderness. Our job is to intercept this shipment and, if possible, seize it."
Chen Chuan nodded and said, "Special Commissioner Feng, how do you need the students to cooperate?"
Lao Feng said, "I have a tactical team under me. They are experts in infiltration, assassination, eavesdropping, and communications. Although Lao Cao has assigned me some additional personnel, which should be enough, I feel that other companies may intervene in this matter, so I need more personnel to cooperate.
Brother Chen, you are a local of Yangzhi. If you have a familiar and reliable person, you can also find him. I can give compensation and evaluation according to the normal commission."
Chen Chuan thought for a moment and said, "I do have the manpower, which should be enough to meet Special Envoy Feng's requirements."
"That would be great."
Old Feng asked again, "How long will it take to gather them? It'd be better to hurry up, as time waits for no one. Once we've dealt with this, we can focus on dealing with the Molan Company."
Chen Chuan said, "I'll make a call now."
He found a roadside telephone booth and started calling Ren Xiaotian, Wei Changan, and other classmates he was working with.
This team can be said to be ready-made. Everyone has experience in attacking armed teams in the wilderness and is trustworthy.
Moreover, this operation is a commissioned task and is also a national task, so it can add a wonderful chapter to everyone's resume.
As he called everyone one by one to ask, everyone who received the call immediately expressed their willingness to join the operation.
Wei Changan originally had another commission on hand, but he immediately turned it down after learning about this.
Not to mention the friendship and favors between him and Chen Chuan, just the benefits brought by the last operation were not objected to by his brothers. Although they didn't know the specific target this time, after learning that they were going to the wilderness again, they knew that it must be another big job, and they were all ready to go and full of energy.
As for Luo Kaiyuan, Feng Xiaoqi, Wu Han, Wei Dong and others, they all agreed without hesitation. It was summer vacation now and they had nothing to do, so they could all come over quickly.
Under such circumstances, and given that Chen Chuan specifically emphasized the urgency of this commission, everyone was gathered together in just one afternoon.
Old Feng was very satisfied to see that he had gathered a team in just half a day, and most of them were students from Wuyi College, and even the remaining people had their own strengths.
So he issued a pre-prepared plan.
Chen Chuan took a look at it. Without mentioning the detailed plan, the information above was almost accurate to every member of An Tan's team. This elite team was almost unilaterally transparent to them. He couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the methods of the General Affairs Bureau seemed to be really powerful.
If I had this kind of plan and information when dealing with the Copper Rust Gang, I could have taken down the entire camp even by myself.
Old Feng saw what he was thinking and said with a smile, "It's not that complicated. Do you know where this information comes from? This is what Antan Company sold to us."
Chen Chuan was a little surprised. "Betraying one's own people?"
Old Feng nodded as a matter of course and said, "That's how Antan Company works. As long as the price is high, anything can be sold. Maybe the person who sold the information is already in the team transporting the goods.
But they usually sell the news in several batches, and each time it’s different. This news is from last week, and it may be slightly different from the actual situation, so we still need to adapt to the situation.”
