Chapter 2719: What Kind of Talk Is That? I Absolutely Trust Mr. Zhang!

But when it comes to these crises that have occurred, if anyone could respond to them perfectly one hundred percent, it would absolutely be Zhang Tianshi and no one else.

The three of them were at a stalemate. Fatty didn't answer Zhang Tianshi's question, only gave a snort through his nose, as if sulking.

Looking at Wang Cen in the team now, he shaded his eyes with his hand, watching the three people in the distance and shaking his head helplessly. Wang Cen truly couldn't understand why they could argue over something like this to such an extent—it simply didn't make sense. In fact, for Wang Cen, it didn't matter who went down to scout.

But following his own logic on this matter, he thought the person sent down should be a throwaway, and he had even considered that Wu Tianzhen might demand his own subordinates go down.

At that time Wang Cen would certainly argue his case forcefully, while protecting the people under him, and he would even consider going down to scout himself.

But he hadn't expected Wu Tiancheng to have no such plan at all, which greatly surprised Wang Cen. At the same time, he was curious how Wu Tianzhen would handle what came next.

Originally Wang Cen didn't believe Archaeology Team One would have internal conflicts at any time. After all, with this trio working together as a premise, everything could be solved easily—but now that this trio had an obvious problem, what was to be done?

If Wang Cen still hadn't reached a cooperative state with Archaeology Team One, harboring other thoughts at this point, he might have already been scheming to switch sides by now.

Besides, the people under him weren't that stable at that time either. Based on this point, there was simply too much he could do.

But taking it ten thousand steps back—if Wang Cen truly still harbored ulterior motives, no matter what situation things reached, whether it was Fatty or Wu Tianzhen, they absolutely would not strike hard at him. This was certain.

Now, no matter how bad Fatty was at reading the situation, he could still see what was going on now, so he wasn't worried about what came next at all—as long as he made choices according to his own thoughts, that was fine.

Also, Fatty paid no attention to the matter of another batch of Wang family people appearing, because all of this was arranged by Zhang Lin. Fatty was certain he could rest easy.

This was the difference between him and Wu Tianzhen. Regarding what Zhang Lin said, Fatty wouldn't even think twice before choosing to believe one hundred percent, while Wu Tianzhen would still carry a sliver of doubt.

This doubt came from instinct, and also because Zhang Lin hadn't made that kind of definitive judgment. Based on Wu Tianzhen's understanding of Zhang Lin, he was certain that as long as that Mr. Zhang at the New Moon Restaurant hadn't made a decision, they had to remain on guard at all times.

If Zhang Lin had been at the New Moon Restaurant and told the archaeology team outright that nothing would go wrong with what came next, only then could they truly rest easy without a care—this was beyond doubt. But Fatty had fallen right into this misconception and couldn't extricate himself.

And now Wu Tianzhen wanted to remind him in some way to absolutely never make this kind of choice again, because it would only make what came next increasingly troublesome. It now seemed like Fatty wanted to overstep his role, or rather make a sacrifice by going down ahead of time, but in reality Fatty simply had too many thoughts of his own.

When they were in the undersea tomb, Fatty wasn't like this at all. Why had he become like this now? Wu Tianzhen simply couldn't find the answer. But even so, Wu Tianzhen kept telling himself in his heart that the answer itself didn't matter—what mattered was the choice Fatty made.

And this choice now seemed to have no impact whatsoever on what came next, but further down the line, who knew what would happen?

Even Zhang Lin couldn't predict with one hundred percent certainty the things that would happen afterward. Since that was the case, they had to be on full alert.

In other words, only one person in Archaeology Team One could have the final say. If different opinions were raised and discussed, that was fine, but if in the end they still disagreed, they could only listen to him as the team leader.

Because Wu Tianzhen believed he had already analyzed Zhang Lin's meaning very clearly. Under this premise, he could continue according to this judgment, which was also why Wu Tianzhen had looked at Wu Ya earlier. If Wu Ya had received a new order from Zhang Lin at that time, she would have said it immediately.

He would definitely seek the other's opinion, rather than making certain choices arbitrarily on his own. This was the reality, and facing reality—if Wu Tianzhen hadn't made any response at all, then he would absolutely regret it later. This was indisputable.

At the same time, Wu Tianzhen kept telling himself in his heart that he absolutely could not let any deviation occur in this matter, otherwise everyone might very well die without a burial place.

And regarding the other group of Mr. Wang, even if they arrived, Wu Tianzhen was certain they would have no impact whatsoever on Archaeology Team One. This wasn't just his personal opinion—rather, Zhang Lin had given him a very strong psychological anchor.

Of course, the reason Fatty had become like this was also because the complexity of these matters instinctively made him feel a trace of unease. This unease didn't come from Zhang Lin—it might be the mysterious person, it might be unknown dangers, all these things made Fatty feel nervous.

Perhaps risking his own life was nothing, but if it meant dragging the other members of the archaeology team down to die with him, Fatty felt that would be a loss outweighing the gain—he didn't want that to happen.

When they were in the undersea tomb, many things had already been confirmed. If they continued forward with a frivolous attitude, they would absolutely pay the price.

And at this moment, Wu Tianzhen looked at Fatty from across Zhang Tianshi, and Fatty did the same. The next moment, Wu Tianzhen took a deep breath.

He shook his head and said: "Fatty, I can see you're very nervous right now. Could it be that you don't even trust Mr. Zhang anymore?"

Hearing this, Fatty immediately got anxious and hurriedly said: "What kind of talk is that? How could I possibly not trust Mr. Zhang? It's just…"

Fatty hadn't finished speaking—his tone stopped abruptly right here. What he wanted to say was, why would Mr. Zhang give that ambiguous answer at the New Moon Restaurant?

And then leave them with no choice at all now. This was what Fatty cared about most. In fact, Wu Tianzhen had long seen through Fatty's thoughts, but just hadn't exposed them.

Including when they had discussed this matter before—if the matter itself were harmless, Fatty wouldn't have been so uneasy from the start.

Looking at Fatty now, including a few hours ago or even earlier, he had already been constantly deliberating over this matter.
