Ning Chen nodded slowly and said, "I didn't expect this scatterbrained fellow to actually know how to lie in wait for me at the hotel entrance. It seems they do have some brains after all; we shouldn't underestimate them."

"I wonder what their leader actually looks like."

"Pull up the data from the most densely concentrated area. If I'm not mistaken, that place should be their main base."

Soon, under Ning Chen's precise operation, a location was revealed.

He saw.

Countless lines began to converge on a single spot.

Like a school of fish attracted by bait.

All the lines rushed toward a southern position on Xia Dao.

Ning Chen fixed his gaze, then quickly pulled up a detailed map of that location.

"This isn't in the bay area?" Ning Chen looked at the screen, which showed a forested region, and said in surprise, "Could the information obtained from the Truth Machine be wrong?"

Ning Chen paused for a moment. "Or perhaps this place isn't the true headquarters, but merely a branch?"

Quickly.

Ning Chen shook his head and said, "In any case, going there to investigate will tell us. We might even get more clues."

"Sigh!" Ning Chen let out a long sigh. "It's truly troublesome, but it's fine. Let's finish dealing with the mercenaries quickly to prevent them from doing something unexpected later."

Now, unless the employer of the mercenaries is eliminated, both sides are in a state of life-or-death struggle.

If they discover Ning Chen's daily routine, it could very well trigger a major disturbance.

This is one of the reasons why Ning Chen intends to wipe out the mercenaries completely.

"Let's go take a look first." After noting the location, Ning Chen turned off the computer, then raised his head to glance out the window.

It was only midday.

There was plenty of time to act.

"Gurgle, gurgle, gurgle!"

Feeling his rumbling, empty stomach, Ning Chen murmured, "I should eat a meal first."

In the afternoon.

After Ning Chen had eaten.

He suddenly thought of something.

Could he ask Tang Xin for another favor?

And if he didn't say anything,

Tang Xin wouldn't know what kind of information Ning Chen wanted next.

Moreover,

if used well, leveraging Tang Xin to obtain information on police movements to help himself evade police pursuit would also be very useful.

Ning Chen took out his phone, found Tang Xin in his contacts, and tapped to open the chat.

The message was still there.

【You must be careful. A police officer named Hearing Hua Ping is leading the investigation against you and wants to arrest you! Never let him catch you! Be careful! I will not betray you! Benefactor!】

Ning Chen hesitated for a moment, then slowly typed a sentence into the input box.

【Thank you for your warning. If possible, could you provide me with more clues?】

Just after Ning Chen sent that message.

Less than three seconds passed.

Ning Chen noticed a "Recipient is typing" indicator appearing above the chat box.

Immediately after.

A message was sent over.

【Wow! Benefactor, you actually replied to my message!?】

Looking at the message sent by the other party, Ning Chen slowly typed out what he wanted to say.

【No need to call me Benefactor; it's troublesome. Just call me Ning Chen.】

At this moment, Tang Xin was at home.

She had just finished showering, steam rising from her body.

Wearing thin clothes, she used a towel to constantly wipe the water from her hair.

While she was sighing about the upcoming police mission,

her phone made a sound.

"Message, message, message! All these days it's been mission orders from above. How annoying is that!"

Tang Xin angrily cursed at her phone with a furious expression, then quickly grabbed it again to look at the content.

"Whoa! A message from Ning Chen!?"

Tang Xin let out a loud cry; all her previous distress and anger instantly turned into surprise and joy.

After the taxi driver incident.

Although Tang Xin didn't show it like Xia He did, deep down she had actually developed feelings of admiration for Ning Chen.

After all,

Ning Chen was handsome, powerful, and had performed a heroic rescue of a beauty; these were all extremely advantageous points.

And after Hearing Hua Ping held a meeting,

she also learned that the songs she usually listened to by Brother Shiguang were actually sung by Ning Chen!

This instantly ignited Tang Xin's admiration for Ning Chen.

Tang Xin never usually watched live streams, but recently she had heard extremely pleasant songs on Douyin online.

All these songs came from a person named Brother Shiguang.

Tang Xin was curious and wanted to go watch Brother Shiguang's live stream.

But she discovered.

For these few days, he had been in a state of being off-air.

So she had directly missed it.

But fate was like an arrangement unique to Heaven.

She had actually had intimate contact with Brother Shiguang.

It was Brother Shiguang who had freed her from danger.

So.

When Tang Xin received a message from Brother Shiguang, which was Ning Chen, she appeared so excited.

【Okay, Ning Chen, believe me, I definitely will not betray you!】

429. Mutual Misunderstanding

【I will tell you all the news you want to get. I am on your side. I know they are wrongly accusing you. Rest assured, I will explain everything clearly for you!】

Tang Xin quickly typed out this passage on her phone.

She feared Ning Chen would stop paying attention to her later.

Or be delayed by something and miss this opportunity.

Ning Chen looked at this little girl, somewhat unable to understand why she was so enthusiastic toward him, even willing to betray the police to help him.

She even looked a bit mentally unstable.

Moreover, isn't Hearing Hua Ping only thinking about arresting me? What can you explain by explaining for me?

That guy Hearing Hua Ping doesn't have any clues either!

If you explain like this, it will instead have the opposite effect.

To prevent Tang Xin from doing anything detrimental to himself.

Ning Chen typed out a passage.

【There is no need to explain anything for me. As for the police wanting to arrest me, you don't need to worry; they won't find me. You just need to help me provide some information, such as the police's movements and the like.】

Tang Xin lay face down on the bed; the towel on her body fell to the floor, her white long legs kept swinging up and down, and a flush rose on her face.

Regarding the conversation with Ning Chen, Tang Xin was almost in a state of blood congestion.

What a rare opportunity this was!

Normally, one simply cannot meet people of this caliber, okay?
