Chapter 72: You dead mouth, how dare you say anything?!
The driver drove the car onto the avenue and said, "There's a hospital nearby. I'll take you there."
Duan Anluo quickly refused: "No, just send us home. The hospital can't cure my illness."
The driver saw Duan Anluo's face in the rearview mirror, and it was indeed much better than before. He often drove the master out, and knew that sometimes the master had internal injuries and could only heal himself, as the hospital could only treat ordinary people's illnesses.
But Assistant Fang asked him to take them to the hospital. He would be responsible if anything happened, so the driver confirmed again: "Really?"
Duan Anluo said seriously: "Really, no need, I'm just tired and want to rest."
The driver then took them home.
Assistant Fang called worriedly, "Have they been sent to the hospital? What's going on?"
The driver answered truthfully, "No, Master Duan went home to rest. He still didn't look well. When he got off the car, his apprentice helped him down."
Assistant Fang: “…”
Could it be that he really thought too much?
Thanks to Xiaobai's efforts, they had a good harvest today. Duan Anluo took one piece to the restaurant, paid the owner a processing fee, and asked the owner to make it into grilled fish. The rest was given to Xiaobai.
The boss rarely saw wild fish this big, and he even asked Duan Anluo where he had caught it. He looked like a fellow angler. Duan Anluo immediately added him as a friend and said, "Let's go fishing together next time."
The boss was very happy and gave Duan Anluo a discount of more than ten yuan.
This fish is fun to catch, but the taste is actually average. The bottom of the wild fish pond is usually covered with years of silt, and the fish has lived in it for a long time, so the meat will inevitably have an earthy smell.
Duan Anluo is picky about food and won’t eat anything that tastes a bit earthy. The two children were very happy eating it because they participated in it and felt a sense of accomplishment.
The two of them didn’t finish the meal, so they packed up the rest and took it back to Brother Goose.
Duan Anluo suddenly felt that it would be a good idea to raise this big white goose. Not only could it guard the house, it could also eat leftovers.
At night, Qi You drew the formation and asked, "Master, how did you do this?"
Duan Anluo began to praise his apprentice in various ways, "Xiao Qi is so amazing, he learned so much after just one look. My apprentice is truly a genius!"
Qi You's eyes sparkled. He not only wanted to learn this formation, but also the skills that his master had used to enter Jiang Yuan's body.
The child loved to learn, so Duan Anluo taught him. The master and apprentice taught until midnight. Qi You wanted to ask more questions, but Duan Anluo patted his shoulder and said, "Go back to sleep. I'll take you to take the exam tomorrow. Hurry up and decide on a school because school is about to start."
Qi You's face tensed, "Master, is the school far from home?"
Duan Anluo saw what he was thinking and told him, "No matter how far you go, you should live on campus and come back on weekends."
Qi You frowned, so he had fewer opportunities to learn.
Duan Anluo teased him, "Why are you in such a hurry? I'm not dying, and you have plenty of time to learn from me. At your age, the most important thing is to go to school, learn etiquette, have a sense of shame, learn about the righteousness of the country, and establish a good outlook on life. This is the foundation of your life. Otherwise, no matter how much you learn, it will be useless and you will only become a scumbag."
"I understand, Master." Qi You took the notebook back to his room and read it before going to bed. He even dreamed of setting up the formation.
The next morning, Duan Anluo took Qi You to the headquarters for an exam. As soon as he entered the president's office, he saw Assistant Fang scratching his head constantly. Duan Anluo felt sorry for his hair. Fang Fang's movements were becoming more and more like the president's. Would Fang Fang become bald in the future?
"How's the investigation going?"
"Hehe~" Duan Anluo was startled when Assistant Fang raised his head. Assistant Fang had two big dark circles under his eyes and red bloodshot eyes, as if he had been bitten by a zombie.
But judging from his expression, it seems that he gained a lot.
"All those you arrested confessed. The young man Ling Feng brought back was very stubborn and confessed a lot after being interrogated all night.
His boss is an old man with a very mysterious identity, and everyone calls him Uncle Ming.
Uncle Ming is accompanied by an assistant who is in his forties. They all call him Uncle Zong.
This young man is just an errand boy, and he is not allowed to participate in the core plan. However, he has met those two old men. Our people have already drawn their portraits, hehe~
Last night, the combat team went to that courtyard to investigate, but the two old men ran away. We only caught a few small fish, but they were involved in several companies. I have sent people to investigate and cut off his funding chain, hehe."
Duan Anluo looked at his mental state and said with a smile, "You didn't sleep all night last night?"
"I haven't slept. I also reviewed the files of everyone at headquarters and circled out those who I suspected were secret agents."
Duan Anluo actively praised him and gave him two thumbs up, praising him: "That's amazing!"
Assistant Fang stared at Duan Anluo with resentment. He looked quite scary in his current state and with this expression.
Duan Anluo took a few steps back and said, "Are you okay? Otherwise, you should take a nap. I'm afraid you'll bite me."
Assistant Fang stood up and said, "Don't leave! Stay and help me!"
Duan Anluo took several steps back. "How can I help you? I was working on that formation yesterday, and my head still hurts today. If my apprentice hadn't come to take the exam, I wouldn't have come here."
"Are you really not here to get information?"
"no."
"I don't believe it."
"Believe it or not." Duan Anluo suppressed his laughter and wanted to run away. Anyway, he already knew everything he wanted to know.
Assistant Fang rushed over and grabbed him, "They want to kill Captain Si, and you don't care?"
"Aren't you already investigating? If you have any hands that stick out, chop them off. If you show your head, chop it off," Duan Anluo ran to the door. "Don't think I don't know. You guys are trying to use me to make a nest."
Whether those two organizations wanted to deal with Si Cang or him, if you look at it rationally, he is the best bait.
Both sides wanted to capture him, one wanted to restrain Si Cang, and the other wanted to kill him for revenge.
But he didn't want to go. It was too dangerous! He could die! He could get hurt! He could get locked up and beaten!
He had finally survived, and his life was so good now. There were so many delicious foods, so many fun things to do, he could take a car and travel thousands of miles a day, and he even had a cell phone to play with. He didn't want to die! Even if he got a skin broken, it would still hurt!
The two were arguing at the door and when they reached a stalemate, the president came back.
The president felt sorry for Assistant Fang who hadn't slept all night, so he patiently discussed with Duan Anluo, "Please help him. He's stubborn and won't sleep until he finds out. Don't let him get too sleepy."
Duan Anluo said seriously: "If you swear that you don't need me to make a nest, I will help you."
Assistant Fang raised three fingers and swore, "I swear! You absolutely won't have to make a nest! Otherwise, I'll be a dog!"
Duan Anluo was still not satisfied. "No, what if you bark like a dog three times at me and then deny it?"
Assistant Fang laughed dryly. He discovered all this?
Duan Anluo pointed at his nose and said, "Swear that if you use me to make a nest, you will be my son. If you deny it later, you can still call me dad."
“…You’re such a dog!”
"Same here."
"Dad, help me."
"..." Duan Anluo was speechless. Can you call him that casually?
Looking at Assistant Fang's dead eyes, Duan Anluo was worried that something might happen to him. Si Cang was coming back soon, and Assistant Fang must have wanted to seize this opportunity to set up a counterattack, which was why he stayed up all night looking for that hidden man. He said helplessly, "Don't call me dad, just treat me to a meal."
Qi You, who was standing outside the door, sighed like a little adult. His master had met his match.
Duan Anluo glanced at his beloved disciple standing outside, "About my disciple's exam..."
The president patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I will take him to the exam and ensure his safety."
Duan Anluo instructed Qi You: "Just take the exam normally, you will definitely pass. Follow this grandfather and let him take you to lunch at noon."
Qi You nodded obediently, "I remember, Grandpa President, let's go."
The president happily took out all the cookies he had hidden and gave them to Qi You. How could there be such a well-behaved child? If this were his grandson, he would wake up laughing in his dreams.
Assistant Fang jumped up from the ground like a spring, and excitedly pulled Duan Anluo to the next office. After entering, he closed the door and opened the bookshelf. A door appeared behind it. Assistant Fang scanned his pupils and fingerprints, then opened his mouth to verify his identity.
Inside was a large conference room with a wall-sized screen in front, displaying the information of twenty people, all of whom were selected by Assistant Fang overnight.
Duan Anluo asked curiously, "Are you the only one with permission to use this room?"
"Captain Si and the Guild Master also have them. They're not normally used here. I control the network here. It's the wartime command center."
Duan Anluo said seriously, "If, I mean if, I cut off your head and your hands and bring them here for verification, can you come in?"
Assistant Fang: “…”
"Forget it, I won't ask anymore." Duan Anluo looked at the person on the screen, sliding it bit by bit, and going through his face first.
Assistant Fang explained: "I can't get in. There's a heat sensor. If I die, I'll be cold."
Duan Anluo actually wanted to ask, what if the person had just died and was still warm... Forget it, Xiao Fang's mental state was no longer normal, and he was afraid that he would bite people.
"I'll help you find it. You can get some sleep. I've been working for 30 hours straight. If you die suddenly, I'll have to summon your spirit."
Assistant Fang lay on the table and fell asleep in seconds.
Duan Anluo shook his head helplessly. At this moment, he really felt sympathy for Assistant Fang. Look, who is normal when working overtime? Even good people can be driven crazy by exhaustion.
Assistant Fang is very organized in his work, and the 20 people on the first page are his main suspects.
There are 40 people on the second page and 60 on the third page. These are the ones he screened out and divided into levels.
It contains all their personal information, from elementary school to work history, as well as detailed family background.
Their backgrounds were checked before they came in, so it is unlikely that these things were forged. It is only possible that they were tempted by money after they came in, or were instigated by something else.
Duan Anluo actually selected three people on the first page. Two of them had good information and facial features, but their financial luck was off. One person didn't seem to have any problems, but someone in their family seemed to be in a state of imprisonment, which needed to be investigated.
There is a person on the second page, and he looks a little strange.
Duan Anluo had already crossed over, but then pulled the man back and looked him over and over again. There was nothing wrong with the man's appearance or information; he looked honest and simple. However, something just didn't feel right, especially his eyes.
He circled this person.
I screened the third page and found another problematic one.
After Duan Anluo finished, he looked at his cell phone. There was no signal. He looked at his watch again. It was eleven o'clock.
As Duan Anluo stood up, Assistant Fang raised his head, his eyes wide open, "Did you find it?"
"I'm not sure. These guys look suspicious. I need you to confirm. How about you get some more sleep?"
Assistant Fang clenched his fists with murderous intent, "This traitor must be apprehended. He was able to eavesdrop on our internal encrypted line. I'm going to kill him!"
Duan Anluo smiled and pointed at the man, "Let me meet him once, and I'll be sure."
"It's easy. We can see him during dinner without arousing suspicion." Assistant Fang lay down again after saying this. Working as a saint, he could seize every fragment of time to catch up on his sleep.
During lunch, Assistant Fang got up, full of energy. Duan Anluo was deeply impressed by his mental state. He thought, "Heaven's chosen worker, a god-level worker, can actually recharge for an hour and be energetic all day long. Amazing!"
During lunch, Assistant Fang took Duan Anluo to a secluded corner. This location was fan-shaped, allowing him to observe everyone who came to eat. Duan Anluo set up a small silent formation to ensure that no sound could be transmitted.
"Number 1 is here." Assistant Fang has already assigned numbers to the target persons to ensure that the deployment can be made in the afternoon after lunch. The team will be out in the evening, and he cannot miss this opportunity.
Duan Anluo followed his gaze and saw a man who looked to be in his 40s, not tall, with a simple and honest face. People passing by greeted him enthusiastically.
"He's a veteran of the guild, having joined when it was first established. He's a legitimate disciple of Longhu Mountain. Later, he was seriously injured while on a mission and switched to logistics. He's been diligent and an excellent employee over the years. I suspect it's because... I feel like his behavior is sometimes a little different than it was a few years ago, and his taste in food... He didn't eat onions before, but now he does."
Duan Anluo had a complicated expression. "You can even observe something like this. You're so scary."
"Do you think I'm only here to eat in the restaurant? The president only knows how to drink tea. You don't know how much I worry about!"
Duan Anluo could only say: "Fang Fang, you are a genius."
"Okay, use your magical eyes to look at this person. What has he done in his life? Is he the one we are looking for?"
Duan Anluo glanced at it and lowered his head. He picked up a piece of celery that he didn't like and fed it to the snake on his wrist. "His soul doesn't match his body. The previous person died long ago."
Looking at photos isn't enough; you still need to see the real person, to see their soul and feel their aura. Photos are always a layer of separation, and it's hard to see the real thing. Among the people eating here, he also noticed a few people who looked a little strange. "I said, write this down and ask someone to check it out when you get back."
"Go ahead, I'll remember it."
"Do you need a notebook?"
"No need," Assistant Fang pointed to his head. "I still have 20,000 words to use today. If 20,000 words is not enough, I can sleep for a while and expand the capacity."
Duan Anluo asked seriously, "Are you selling your brain? My Yuan'er wants to exchange it for another one."
Assistant Fang said seriously, "It probably won't work in this life. In the next life, I'll ask my mother to give birth to two babies, and I'll pick one and sell it to you."
"A head like a goat's horn? One sticking out from each side?"
"Well, you can...Puff!" Assistant Fang couldn't hold it in any longer and almost spit out the soup in his mouth.
Duan Anluo quickly dodged with the plate in his hand, "You're disgusting."
"You made me laugh first!"
"I'm serious, who's teasing you?"
The president brought Qi You to the restaurant for dinner. Seeing the two still arguing, he frowned worriedly, "Can they work properly?"
Qi You followed the president obediently. After hearing his words, he said, "Don't worry, Grandpa President. Master rarely quarrels with others. He has a good relationship with Assistant Fang, so this is the case."
The president asked, "They only quarrel when the relationship is good, but what about when the relationship is bad?"
The relationship is not good...it depends on the situation. I'll scold him, beat him, or even kill him if it's more serious. This kind of thing can't be said out loud. Qi You changed his words: "My master and Assistant Fang get along very well. They are just joking around. Don't worry."
During the meal, Duan Anluo helped Assistant Fang not only confirm the previous target, but also found several more problematic people. Duan Anluo had not yet recovered to his peak state. He certainly couldn't see past and present lives, and he could definitely tell if someone had done something wrong.
Assistant Fang memorized all of this. "I'll take care of these people. Find a way to contact Captain Si and have him feign injury and send a message back using an encrypted channel. This is a rare opportunity for them, and they won't be able to resist. Thank you, Captain Si, for killing another wave."
Duan Anluo felt distressed. "Si Cang is made of flesh and blood, not iron. You don't even give me any time to rest? You don't need me to make the nest, so you let him do it?"
"I'm doing this for your own good. I'll add fuel to the fire later. If I can't kill them this time, I'll at least severely injure them. That way, you two will be safe."
Duan Anluo frowned. This was indeed the truth, but he still felt uncomfortable.
Assistant Fang said, "If you feel bad for him, then go and help him. You two are together, how can you be afraid of them?"
Duan Anluo nodded slowly and said, "Okay."
Assistant Fang is satisfied. Don’t even think about being lazy. Get to work!
Later, Assistant Fang thought about what he had said today and wanted to slap himself. "You stupid mouth! How dare you say anything?"
Assistant Fang still didn't know how much trouble Duan Anluo and Si Cang could cause him, so he was still analyzing it for Duan Anluo. "Actually, your problem is easy to solve. The people in that organization kill anyone with your name. Don't you think that's perverted?"
"Yeah!" Duan Anluo's thoughts were immediately drawn to the topic, and he nodded vigorously, empathetically. "How much do they hate me? I can't recall doing anything so unscrupulous. You know me. I'm a kind person. I wouldn't even dare to step on an ant, and I'll even chant sutras to pray for the souls of flies if I kill them."
Assistant Fang whispered, "That's not the case at all. Hatred disappears with a person's death. It won't last that long. Only when love is unrequited and hatred arises from love will one become evil, perverted, and mad..."
Duan Anluo had a look on his face that said, "Are you crazy?" "Didn't you eat well at noon today? You're quite smart, why are you talking nonsense?"
"You don't believe it? Forget it, let's talk about it later." Assistant Fang kept this matter in mind for the time being and didn't tell Duan Anluo about it, because he couldn't explain it clearly to him.
Duan Anluo was apathetic and had a good temper. As long as others didn't do anything wrong, he would be pleasant and friendly, always smiling when talking to anyone. He was probably so used to looking at his own face that he didn't realize how much damage this kind of temperament, ability, and appearance could do to others.
Take the time spent eating, for example. So many eyes were glued to him, yet Duan Anluo was so used to it that he didn't think anything was wrong. Since these people had no ill intentions towards him, he didn't care. Pfft! I really wanted to laugh!
In the past, people were very reserved in their words. They might misunderstand you if you confessed to them. If you didn't speak directly, they wouldn't understand. Perhaps they had offended someone at some point and hated him for so long. If they knew he was back from the dead, wouldn't they go crazy?
Currently, the only people who knew Duan Anluo's true identity were Captain Si, Master Zhou, and him. Duan Anluo's information was fabricated overnight by him and Captain Si. The president still believed that Duan Anluo was seriously injured when he and Captain Si entered into the marriage contract and was still recovering. If this secret were to be broken, or Duan Anluo was recognized... that would be a big deal.
I'll have to find an opportunity to have Captain Si go and provoke that person. If he goes crazy, it will prove that his guess is correct. Thinking about that scene, Assistant Fang suddenly felt no longer sleepy and stamped his feet excitedly. This scene is too exciting!
Duan Anluo thought Assistant Fang had gone crazy. "Why don't you go back and get some sleep? I think you're not normal anymore."
Assistant Fang waved his hand, not wanting to continue the conversation. "Can you contact the squadron?"
Duan Anluo pointed at the snake that was busy eating the leftovers and said, "It can."
In fact, he wanted to try and see if he could go with Xiaobai. If he could control Si Cang's body just like he took over Jiang Yuan's, using Si Cang's knife and Si Cang's black flames... Duan Anluo couldn't control his excitement at the thought. It was too exciting! So much fun!
Assistant Fang had no idea what terrible things were going on in his mind, so he said solemnly, "I'll leave the message to you. The first thing Captain Si will do after receiving the signal is to send you a message. The most important thing is that he only listens to you."
"You even know this?" Duan Anluo's eyes turned cold. "It seems that I can't keep you here."
Assistant Fang noticed the murderous intent in Duan Anluo's eyes and was so frightened that his scalp went numb and his hair was about to explode. He took two steps back in panic, "You, what do you want to do?"
Duan Anluo couldn't hold back his anger when he saw his frightened look. "Hahaha, if I ask you to assign me a job, I'll scare you!"
Assistant Fang: "...be a decent person!!"
Looking at the time again, there are still seven hours left before Si Cang leaves the sealed place.
The author has something to say:
Duan Anluo: Let me see who is the unhuman being?
