Chapter 469

~5 min read 849 words

Now it could be confirmed that the five names Chang San wrote down were actually four.

Two Zhang Qilins, one Anonymous, one Temujin, and one Wang Canghai!

Captain Zhou, looking like he had completed his task, said urgently, "All four names are here, so I can go and report."

Who knew that Zhang Lin would say, "It's not four names, it's five!"

Captain Zhou and Sheng Sheng Man were both stunned upon hearing this; Chang San did indeed write down five names, but two were identical, so strictly speaking, it was four.

They didn't know why Zhang Lin was dwelling on this number.

Seeing that the two were confused, Zhang Lin didn't explain but said to Captain Zhou, "Anyway, I suggest you report truthfully that Chang San wrote down five names."

"Because I feel that although these two Zhang Qilins have the same name, they might not be the same person!"

Hearing this, Sheng Sheng Man had a feeling of sudden realization.

She had been by Yin Nanfeng's side for a long time and often came into contact with Zhang Yueshan, so naturally, she had heard some past events of the Northeast Zhang family.

She understood that the name Zhang Qilin was actually a code name!

Every head of the Zhang family was called Zhang Qilin!

It seemed to be a inheritance with special significance.

So if the two Zhang Qilins were not of the same generation, they could be counted as two people.

Only, if that were the case, the problem would arise.

The next generation's head would only be determined after the previous generation's head died.

If the two names referred to Zhang family heads of different generations, it would mean the previous generation's head hadn't died either; was this possible?

This question could probably only be answered by asking Zhang Yueshan.

But if Zhang Yueshan were here, he would definitely give a clear answer.

Impossible!

The previous Zhang family head not only died, but even the body was buried, so he couldn't be the other Zhang Qilin written by Chang San.

And there was another question that Sheng Sheng Man thought of in her heart but didn't ask.

That was, how did Zhang Lin determine which one this remaining Zhang Qilin represented?

Was it the previous head or this current head?

Zhang Lin turned back and saw Sheng Sheng Man's brows tightly furrowed, so he knew what she was thinking.

Zhang Lin responded directly, "Stop letting your imagination run wild; anyway, I can tell you clearly that what you're thinking is wrong!"

Sheng Sheng Man was momentarily stunned by Zhang Lin's answer.

What she thought was wrong? How did Zhang Lin know what she was thinking?

If these two Zhang Qilins weren't the previous head and the current head, could it be that there were two Zhang Qilins in this generation?

That would simply be the most horrifying event!

She had never heard that the Qilin of this generation's main family was a twin.

Therefore, Sheng Sheng Man became even more confused by what Zhang Lin said.

Captain Zhou didn't pay attention to these things; he himself didn't understand the Northeast Zhang family because the content about the Zhang family mentioned when Zhang Lin was storytelling was limited.

Captain Zhou just put away the list and said to Zhang Lin, "Consultant Zhang, the next step is for us to cooperate with you to continue letting Mr. Wei listen to the stories, right?"

Zhang Lin nodded, "Yes, actually, it doesn't need to be too deliberate, because he has many problems in his heart that haven't been solved, and he won't give up listening to my storytelling."

"Although the Thunder-Listening Art is good, sometimes it's not as fast as the news I have here!"

"I will use storytelling to scam him a second time; as for the secret on the third Snake-Eyebrow Copper Fish, it can only be interpreted after the Xisha archaeological team finds the copper fish."

Captain Zhou nodded, left a contact method, and pushed the door to leave.

He had to report everything that happened in this room truthfully to his superiors!

Sheng Sheng Man saw that the person had left, so she asked, "Mr. Zhang, you mean that the two Zhang Qilins are not the relationship between the previous generation and this generation, so does that mean there are two Zhang Qilins in this generation?"

Zhang Lin didn't answer immediately but thought for a long time before saying, "Actually, until now, this is all my guess."

"I also cannot determine the relationship between these two Zhang Qilins; it needs time to be verified."

"Or rather, I need that Zhang Qilin whose name was crossed out to give me a hint..."

Hearing this, Sheng Sheng Man became even more confused; she didn't understand at all how Zhang Lin distinguished between the different Zhang Qilins.

But she suddenly thought of that century-old mailbox, and her heart stirred.

Looking at Zhang Qi, she said, "Mr. Zhang, the letter you put in the mailbox has a response; is this a kind of hint?"
