Chapter 3343: Nice Idea! But Not Everyone Has a Brain!

Wu Tianzhen heard this and said coldly, "Is there any difference? Mr. Zhang doesn't owe us anything. How many times must I tell you this before you understand? Yet now you're using such a method to force Mr. Zhang to compromise. If you were Mr. Zhang, what would you think?"

Fatty took a deep breath, then said, "Of course I know Mr. Zhang will be furious."

"Since you know that, then stop your foolish behavior right now. It matters little if it affects just you, but if it affects the entire Archaeology Team One, then your crimes would be too numerous to record."

Just at this moment, the communication device exclusive to Archaeology Team One rang. Actually, Wu Tianzhen didn't need to think about it, nor did he need to look—he already knew who was calling. It had to be from the official side.

Before this, when Fatty was about to do something stupid, even at the most tense moment, the officials could have ignored it and let things develop on their own. But Fatty has already laid his thoughts out on the table, and he's even just one step short of threatening Zhang Lin to his face. Under these circumstances, the officials absolutely will not allow such a thing to happen.

Just as Wu Tianzhen said earlier, the life and death of one person, Fatty, is a small matter; the overall survival of Archaeology Team One is the big matter. So they absolutely cannot sacrifice the greater good for the lesser.

Wu Tianzhen felt that after saying all this, Fatty should at least be somewhat alerted and realize that his current approach is truly inappropriate. But he never expected that the next moment, Fatty actually shook his head.

Then he laughed freely and said, "You don't need to scare me. Everything I've done is for everyone. If I'm wrong, I'll just stake my own life—that's all, nothing more. That can also count as apologizing to Mr. Zhang."

Wu Tianzhen was instantly anxious upon hearing this. Without a word, he stepped forward two paces and kicked Fatty right in the chest. Fatty didn't dodge, only stepped back two paces afterward—all of this was within his expectations.

He knew Wu Tianzhen would definitely lose his temper, because at this point there were no subjective emotions left that could be magnified by Wu Tianzhen. He could only use his fury to express his feelings.

And this kind of anger was still in a state about to erupt. The key was that when Wu Tianzhen faced his own brother, even if he didn't want to restrain himself, he had to.

Looking at Fatty on the other hand, he had actually seen through Wu Tianzhen's thoughts just now. After all, this kind of tacit understanding belonged to three people, not just Wu Tianzhen and Zhang Tianshi.

So when Wu Tianzhen gave Zhang Tianshi a meaningful look, Fatty already understood completely. He knew Wu Tianzhen wanted to use Zhang Tianshi's precise and ruthless strike to knock him out directly, and then they could just enter the tomb.

It was that simple. But Fatty absolutely wouldn't fall for it right now, and he kept telling himself forcefully that even if things really reached such an awkward point, he didn't want to submit to all the arrangements.

When he saw that such a thing had really happened or was about to happen, he had to make corresponding preparations in advance no matter what, rather than thinking about all that messy stuff.

Or using some inexplicable method to rationalize it. That would actually be very unfavorable for the archaeology team. Precisely because he saw this point clearly, Fatty also thought things through very thoroughly, which is why he made this decision.

What he didn't know was that Fatty's behavior right now was nothing but being clever with himself. If things really became that awkward, Zhang Lin actually had many options and had no need to keep commanding Archaeology Team One. This was exactly where Zhang Lin's anger lay right now.

Fatty usually doesn't like to use his brain, but at every critical moment he can always come up with some surprising answers. But this time there was a deviation. If one says Fatty is very similar to Wang Kaixuan of Archaeology Team Two, that comes from their personalities, but in terms of extremes, Fatty indeed surpasses Wang Kaixuan.

At least Wang Kaixuan in Archaeology Team Two wouldn't handle problems in this way. No matter how unsatisfied he was with how things were going, Wang Kaixuan understood he had no right to do all this. Ultimately, he still had to listen to Yang Lu. This is where Archaeology Team One falls short of Archaeology Team Two.

Whenever Zhang Lin mentioned Archaeology Team Two, he always said they only had Yang Lu alone, with no one else to share her burden. These worries were very, very few.

Unlike Archaeology Team One, which has a trio. Of course, Zhang Lin also emphasized that this kind of thing has both pros and cons. Now the drawbacks are coming to the fore. Archaeology Team One is facing this awkward situation, which makes it hard for Wu Tianzhen to act now.

Looking at Wu Ya on the other hand, seeing Fatty's performance at this moment, she shook her head helplessly. She knew she had already said everything she could. If she went back now to explain the pros and cons to Fatty, there would be no point.

Because Fatty's starting point was always for the team as a whole. In other words, he wasn't unaware of those principles—he was just deliberately ignoring them, thinking none of this really mattered.

As long as he kept going in this manner, Archaeology Team One would become smoother. That was the idea Fatty held. Against such an idea, no one had a good way to stop this half-mad person.

The key was that within his madness there remained a sliver of rationality, and it was precisely this rationality that allowed him to keep going forward smoothly. This was the most terrifying part, and also the point that even Zhang Lin found rather helpless about.

Wu Ya knew there was nothing she could do now. Zhang Lin still had six or seven hours before he would board the Crescent Restaurant. If Archaeology Team One didn't use this brief time to complete the exploration of the Tiangong entrance, then all of Zhang Lin's previous arrangements would be wasted. This was what she truly cared about.

So now Wu Ya could only muster her courage and make that call. Meanwhile, on Mr. Wang's end, although he had already made up his mind, one second before making the call, Mr. Wang still raised his hand to stop his trusted subordinate.

This trusted subordinate frowned slightly. Mr. Wang had gone back on his word again and again. Although he was already used to it, he was truly puzzled now. First of all, Mr. Wang was absolutely not this kind of person originally—whatever he thought of, he would do it, wholeheartedly and without being threatened by anyone.

Looking at the present, however, Mr. Wang seemed to have become a different person. Everything was so cautious and careful, and no matter the circumstances, he wanted to fight for some vested interests.

Or rather, he wanted to move forward better. He could see all these good intentions, but if Mr. Wang was counting on every member of the Wang family to see this result—

His thinking was really too naive, because not everyone lives by using their brain.
