Chapter 188 Albatross



Yellow sand filled the sky.

The extended luxury car drove silently through the yellow sand, its sturdy exterior giving everyone a slight sense of security.

The group discussed amongst themselves the reasons why the higher-ups were hunting down Xia Chuhe.

Zhao Maomao offered the apparent reason: "Because the boss is a wanted criminal?"

Li Yue, who once had connections in the upper class, offered a deeper reason: "Because they want to arrest your parents?"

Others had also heard that a fake Xia Qingxue and Lu Xingyi had appeared a few days ago.

Li Qiusheng offered another reason: "Boss, could it be that you've hidden something good that someone's eyeing?"

Xia Chuhe smiled wryly: "What good things could I possibly have? The best thing I have is the watch I just got."

Xia Chuhe was already happily wearing the watch next to his wristwatch, because he was wearing a metal wristband on his other hand. The wristband was the little snake's home, and the little snake was unwilling to give up this place.

Xia Chuhe had no choice but to wear both watches on one hand, since the wristwatches were mostly covered by his combat uniform anyway.

Lu Dangui made a pointed remark: "Perhaps, what they want is your life."

Xia Chuhe covered her face helplessly: "Sister, stop talking, I'm scared."

The more they talk, the scarier it gets. They might be willing to risk their lives for loot, but they can't afford to lose their lives. They might just end up in a dungeon one day; it's not up to the higher-ups to handle them.

During the conversation, Xia Chuhe finally remembered his only connection with the upper echelons: the butler.

As soon as I turned on the watch, messages of all sizes rushed out.

Xia Chuhe ignored the message and logged into the Tianya forum, contacting the administrator: "[The higher-ups want to kill me, do you know why?]"

Butler: [Because of the rebels?]

Xia Chuhe: [Do you think that's the reason? They knew the date I was going to run the dungeon, which clearly conflicted with the rebellion.]

Butler: [Because you are the savior.]

The butler confirmed: "Yes, that's the reason."

Xia Chuhe was speechless. Where did the butler get his unfounded confidence? Whose savior could escape faster than a frantic, homeless dog?

It seems the butler doesn't know the real reason either.

Xia Chuhe replied, feigning indifference: "Understood, you may leave."

The housekeeper used the reply style he learned from Xia Chuhe: [...]

After "using" the butler, Xia Chuhe went to deal with the messages accumulated in his wristwatch.

An anonymous person had previously sent her messages like "Why did you join the rebels?", and today sent another message saying "We know you are safe and sound, have a safe journey," which must have been Bao'er reporting that she was safe.

Xin Diao, Du Zhen, and A Bao also asked, and Xia Chuhe answered them one by one.

There were two unexpected people.

One is Wang Gang from Lighthouse: [Sister Xia, if you want to join the rebels, why don't you come to Lighthouse? Lighthouse welcomes you anytime! Are you coming? I'll come pick you up! I'll keep you safe!]

There was another friend request from a stranger: [Farmer? Perhaps I should call you Boss Xia? Hello, I am the head of the Xintian Gang. Divine decree has been issued that the Cape Trading Market will host an exclusive auction for you. We sincerely await your reply. May God bless you.]

In the wasteland, the Lighthouse is the most famous and powerful rebel group, and Wang Gang might know some exclusive information.

Xia Chuhe: [Do you know which organization carried out the last rebellion?]

Xia Chuhe hesitated before pressing send.

Xia Chuhe passed the question he wanted to ask Wang Gang to Zhao Maomao.

Zhao Maomao pondered deeply: "It doesn't seem to have been mentioned in the news, but under normal circumstances, only the Lighthouse could do something like this, right? Other organizations don't have that kind of capability."

The Lighthouse is the most powerful rebel force in the wasteland...

If we ignore the relatively neutral and chaotic forces in the wasteland and divide all forces into two sides, good and evil, then the representative of the good side is the Base, and the representative of the evil side is the Beacon.

If a normal person abandons their righteous stance and joins the villain's side, their first consideration will undoubtedly be the strongest. Perhaps in the eyes of the world, Xia Chuhe has already found his place with the Lighthouse.

Meanwhile, Wu Ying, the third-in-command of the Lighthouse, had repeatedly invited Xia Chuhe to join the Lighthouse, and Wang Gang's attitude was so enthusiastic. In addition, the Lighthouse also had a Thousand-Faced Man who could change his appearance in countless ways...

It's hard to say there's nothing fishy going on.

Xia Chuhe decided to try and trick Wang Gang: "That attack, wasn't it the lighthouse's doing?"

Wang Gang: [No, Sister Xia, how could it be the Lighthouse? Isn't that you in the video? I also want to ask, which rebel organization did you join?]

Xia Chuhe persisted relentlessly, his tone extremely resolute: "Among the rebels, I am a man of a thousand faces."

Xia Chuhe pressed on: "Your goal is to force me to join the Lighthouse."

Wang Gang remained silent.

Xia Chuhe thought about the lighthouse's weaknesses, but after thinking for a long time, he couldn't come up with anything. He could only think of one thing.

Back then, the Thousand-Faced Man impersonated Old Qin and obtained a hummingbird worth millions at the Raptor Academy, but he handed the hummingbird over to the real Old Qin without batting an eye.

Xia Chuhe tried to threaten him: "Speak up! If you don't, tell Thousand-Faced Man, and I'll bring Old Qin here right now and skin him alive."

Wang Gang: [Broken defense.jpg]

Wang Gang: [Sister Xia, I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! I was forced into it!]

Wang Gang: [Sister Xia, have you opened your third eye?]

It really was Lighthouse's doing! Xia Chuhe was impressed; Wuying, that old fox, was truly something else!

Xia Chuhe: [Whose idea was this? Wuying?]

Wang Gang: [My third master's IQ isn't high enough to come up with such an idea.]

Wang Gang retracted the previous message.

Xia Chuhe: [I took a screenshot.]

Wang Gang: [Breaking through the defenses.jpg]

Wang Gang: [It was our second uncle's terrible idea.]

Wang Gang: [Second Master has already run away; he's fallen out with Third Master.]
