Chapter 1230: Wang Tanzhi ‘s’ warehouse ‘journey (1)

Translator: 549690339 

“That was … About a month ago. I went to that ‘warehouse’ once.” Xiao Tan started to narrate. From his speed and expression, that experience was still fresh in his mind. However, when he described the date, he used the vague term “more than a month”. It could be seen that he was unable to say the exact time for some reason.

“That is to say … Before the demon ghost’s kidnapping?” Feng bujue asked.

“Yes, I am.” Xiao Tan nodded.”At the time, I didn’t know about the existence of Dong Feng. What I was going to say … Has nothing to do with him.”

“Do you know about this?” Feng bujue then turned to master Bao and asked.

“I’ve read the report. ” Bao Qing replied,”as for the details …” He shrugged and turned to look at Xiao Tan.”Since you’ve brought it up, I’ll listen to you.”

While they were talking, Wang Tanzhi picked up the drink on the coffee table and took a sip to moisten his throat.””I was on break that day, and Ling had to go to work …”

“When you said the word ‘work’, you were actually referring to Yingluo going to her family’s company to be a passerby, right?” Brother Jue did not wait for Xiao Tan to finish his first sentence before he interrupted him with a sarcastic remark.

“It’s not that,” Xiao Tan said.”Recently, my future father-in-law has been personally teaching Xiao Ling about management. Every time Xiao Ling returns home, she has to spend hours reading through the documents. I feel like her work is even harder than mine.”

“Hey, can you not change the topic …” Bao Qing said to brother Jue,”he’s only said half a sentence, and you’re already changing the topic. And … I think you have a bit of a prejudice against the rich and the officials. Must the rich second generation work in their own company just to waste their time? Do we civil servants have to kill and set fire all day?”

“Have you killed anyone, set a fire, or broken the law?” Feng bujue asked in return.

“Er …” Bao Qing hesitated for two seconds. Then, as if he had lost his memory, he turned to look at Xiao Tan.”What were we talking about? You’re taking a break that day, right?”

“Hey … Looks like the answer is yes, yes, and yes …” Feng bujue narrowed his eyes and cursed internally, but he did not say it out loud to prevent the topic from being dragged back into a heated argument.

“Yes.” On the other side, Xiao Tan took the opportunity to answer.”That day, I was just about to have lunch when I suddenly received a call … The caller ID showed the words ‘unknown number’. I’ve never been in such a situation before. Even though I suspected that it might be a scam call, according to brother Jue’s principle of ‘you have to consider all possibilities’, I still picked it up. ”

“What does his principle have to do with whether you answer the phone or not?” Upon hearing this, Bao Qing could not help but wonder,”at the end of the day … Isn’t it just a psychological defense that ‘with my luck, it’s hard to say how unlucky I’ll be when I encounter an unknown situation, so I’ll assume the worst case scenario’…”

“Yup,” Xiao Tan used a normal tone to reply,”the hypothesis that came to my mind was … Perhaps my parents were lost overseas, or perhaps they were caught in a disaster, or perhaps they were buried alive in a coffin … And the only thing they had was a phone with unknown number and only one bar of battery left. At that moment, they would most likely call me.”

“Sigh …” Bao Qing shook his head and sighed. He picked up his cup of tea and took a sip.”It can’t be helped. After all, he grew up with Feng bujue, so it’s inevitable that he’ll be mentally affected …”

“Hey, hey … Didn’t you grow up together with us?” Feng bujue immediately retorted.

“That’s why …” Bao Qing said.”Since I was ten years old, I’ve applied to the organization for regular professional psychological counseling and psychological assessment.”

“Wow, not bad.” Feng bujue raised an eyebrow.

“Of course~’yes’.” Bao Qing’s tone became more serious.”No matter what, I’m a genius young Special Agent. If an ordinary person were to lurk by your side … Even if their identity is not exposed, their mind would have collapsed long ago. ”

“What’s a ‘genius young agent’?” Feng bujue pouted.”I’ve never seen you knock an adult out with a tranquilizer and then use a voice changer to solve a case when you were in elementary school, have you?”

“Of course. Which primary school student in the real world has a murder case around him all year round?” After Bao Qing said that, he seemed to have thought of something. He paused for two seconds before continuing,”uh … Even if there were some murder cases around me, they were basically all related to you, okay? I knew from the start that you, the target of surveillance, did it. Who would I go for a biu?”

“Hmm …” Feng bujue was silent for two seconds. Then, as if he had lost his memory, he turned to look at Xiao Tan.”What were we talking about? You picked up the phone?”

Seeing this, Bao Qing rolled his eyes and didn’t continue.

This was a common situation when they gathered together to chat. Something that could be explained in ten minutes could be explained by them for an hour because of their habit of going off topic and bickering with each other …

Xiao Tan was already used to it. If Bao Qing was the one talking, then it would be his turn to argue with brother Jue … And the result would be the same.

“Anyway … I picked up the phone.” Xiao Tan picked up the topic from earlier and continued,”and the person on the other end of the phone … Is Ling’s grandfather.”

“Gu Chen?”

“Section Chief Gu?”

Feng bujue and Bao Qing blurted out two different names at the same time, and they were clearly referring to the same person.

“Yes.” Xiao Tan nodded.”I’ve … Met the old man a few times before. He told me a lot about the world, like the nine divisions, psionic power, ghost hunter, fringe people, and so on …”

“Oh …” Feng bujue’s expression changed when he heard that. He asked,”then, did he pass you any cultivation technique or something?”

“No, I didn ‘t,” Xiao Tan added.

“Is that so …” Brother Jue mumbled as he rubbed his chin. At the same time, he thought to himself, could it be that the heavenly book of concealment has a rule that it can only be taught to one person? You can’t give it to anyone else after you’ve given it to me? Or … Did Section Chief Gu think Xiao Tan’s talent was not good enough? Or … He doesn’t like this grandson-in-law?”

“Also … I feel like he doesn’t really like me.” Two seconds later, Xiao Tan answered brother Jue’s question without asking.”So, it’s not weird that you won’t teach me the technique, right?”

“Oh?” “You?” brother Jue was curious.”You’re a handsome, rich, and popular man, and he doesn’t like you?”

“Uh … He didn’t say clearly that he didn’t like me.” Xiao Tan read it out loud with a thoughtful look.

“Ah … I understand.” Bao Qing immediately said with an experienced expression,”our chief is using his actions to show you his sincerity, right?”

“Yes.” “The first time we met,” Xiao Tan replied,”he dragged me into an interrogation room and gave me a good beating. Just when I thought I was going to die, he used his psionic power to heal me.”

“This is to allow you to directly experience the existence of psionic power for further explanation, right?” Feng bujue added.

“There’s no need for that. I’ll already know the settings for my psionic power by then.” Xiao Tan replied,”Xiao Ling has told me many things.”

“Did you ask him why he did that?” Feng bujue asked.

“I did.” Xiao Tan replied,”he gave me a weird answer. He said something like ‘a beauty and a Virgin are as obvious as the lipstick on a shirt’.”

“What does this mean?” Bao Qing was also curious.

“Ah … I asked the same question after I heard that.” Xiao Tan replied,”but after I asked … He beat me up again.”

“It can’t be …” Bao Qing was also confused. He murmured,”although Section Chief Gu often does things with evil intentions, he always has a purpose … He’s not the kind of person who is fickle in his emotions … This doesn’t make sense.”

“I still don’t understand what those two beatings were about.” Xiao Tan spread his hands.

At that moment, of the three people present, only Feng bujue … Thought about it and came up with a reason.

A few seconds later, brother Jue chuckled and whispered into Bao Qing’s ear.

“Oh, oh, oh.” Bao Qing immediately pretended to be enlightened.”I see … Hmm … Understandable, understandable.”

“That’s right, isn’t it?” Feng bujue said to Bao Qing.”You’re a father, but your reaction is not as fast as mine.”

“Eh?” This time, Xiao Tan was dumbfounded.”Hey, hey, hey, hey?” He shouted a few times and looked at Feng bujue.”What’s going on? You actually thought it through as soon as you heard it?”

“Yes, I’ve thought it through,” Feng bujue nodded.

“Then why?” Xiao Tan quickly asked.

“Haha …” Feng bujue chuckled but did not answer his question. Instead, he suddenly started to talk about himself.”Do you know … That the progress between your sister Yu and I has been stagnant for a long time?”

“Er …” Xiao Tan was taken aback by the question again.”I know, but does that have anything to do with my question?”

“The relationship is that …” Feng bujue’s expression changed, and his eyes widened like copper bells as he stared at Xiao Tan.”If you ask such a stupid question again, I will use the martial arts that Section Chief Gu personally taught me to kill you.”

“I’ll call the ambulance after you’re done, and I’ll also testify that it was self-defense. ” Bao Qing, who was beside him, followed up.

“Ha?” Xiao Tan was completely dumbfounded, and he did not know how to react.

Fortunately, he had never been the kind of person who would get to the bottom of everything. In many cases, even if he was taken advantage of, he would just laugh it off. As long as it did not involve any issues of principle, he would not take it to heart. Therefore, that was the end of the topic. Xiao Tan did not ask anymore.

At that time, no one would have thought … It would take several decades for Wang Tanzhi to reveal the truth. At that time … He was using his family’s martial arts to beat up Feng bujue’s son.

Of course, those things may not appear in this book, so we’ll stop there.

“Okay … Then I’ll continue.” Xiao Tan continued,”when I received the call that day, it was noon. I didn’t even have lunch before I was called to a strange address by Section Chief Gu.”

“‘A strange address’, does that mean you can’t let me know?” Feng bujue asked.

“Yes, the date and location must be kept a secret.” Xiao Tan continued.”In any case … I was called to the ‘warehouse’.” He paused for half a second before he continued,”when we arrived, I didn’t see anything strange about it because from the outside, it looked like a very ordinary building. There was a kind-looking old man sitting at the gate. I didn’t even roll down the window, but he opened the gate and waved me in. So, I drove into the warehouse and parked my car. After I got out of the car, an uncle called Zhang Zhi-ang came over and led me into the warehouse. ”

“Wait …” Feng bujue said.”You didn’t even allow us to reveal the time and place, and you just gave us the agent’s full name?”

“Haha …” Xiao Tan laughed drily and narrowed his eyes.”Brother Jue, you won’t realize it just by hearing the name ‘Zhang Zhi-ang’. I’ll tell you the names of a few more workers at the warehouse, and you’ll understand.” He paused for a second and continued,”the other employees in this warehouse are li Leyi, Zhou zhiqiao, su Siwu …”

“What the f * ck?” Feng bujue listened to three more names and found the pattern.”These names are all pronounced in pinyin, right?”

“Actually …” Bao Qing continued,”not all of the aliases in our world follow this pattern.” He explained,”because the names of some surnames that are followed by pinyin pronunciation are very strange, such as ‘Yu Yuyu’…”

“What? And the F * cking Yu Yuyu?” Brother Jue did not even wait for the other party to finish before he said,”so the person with the name Yu Yuyu is actually a secret agent? Eh? That can’t be right … Does that mean that the people who come up with that kind of name are all special agents who use pseudonyms? What was the situation with Diao Deyi (the character in “Sha Jia bang”)? Anti-spy?”

“Let me finish first …” Bao Qing knew that brother Jue was joking, so he did not correct the fact that Diao Deyi was a fictional character in the model play. He continued,”because some words are not easy to break down into pinyin, or they sound too weird, we have a type of pseudonym where we come from. It is based on the radicals. For example, Feng Erma, Liu Wendao, Xu Yanwu, and so on. ”

“HO …” Feng bujue’s eyes widened and he thought for a few seconds.”Then, what about man? He was using the alias ‘full touch an’, alright? Or should I just change it to’ F *** 23 ‘?”

“Why do you care?” Bao Qing gave brother Jue a sidelong glance.”Don’t worry. A demon like you will not be specially recruited by us. You don’t have to worry about that.”

To his surprise, Xiao Tan looked at Bao Qing and said,””Master Bao …” His expression was unusually serious.”If I’m recruited by you in the future, I don’t want to be called Wang Ganyi.”

“What’s the use of telling me!” Bao Qing was shocked.”Continue talking about your trip to the warehouse! The warehouse!”
