Chapter 685: Are You Crazy?

~7 min read 1,306 words

Fang Qi shook her head, "I don't know."

She truly did not know!

To say yes? Yet no matter how she thought about it, it felt impossible. But to say no? Everything before her eyes was so unfamiliar. Teacher An seemed very familiar with City, and she knew so many people here. Moreover, the cars they were riding in were all sedans.

Is this something an ordinary person could manage?

An Yinan did not take them anywhere else, but returned to her previous residential compound.

There was no need for concealment now. Whether it was City, Eagle Country, or even other nations, they all clearly knew her identity. She was here to negotiate now, not to carry out a secret mission.

It had to be open and aboveboard, it had to be known to everyone, so that Eagle Country would find it difficult to take action in the shadows.

"Two female Comrades, stay in that room. The male Comrades' room is on the other side," An Yinan pointed to the room across from them.

However, no one moved; instead, they all looked at her.

An Yinan raised an eyebrow, "Are there any questions?"

An Xiangbei smiled and shook his head. He went to the refrigerator to get some ice water, took out cups, and poured some for everyone, letting them calm down.

"Teacher An, are you that famous lady in City?" Fang Qi asked curiously.

There were many newspapers in City that mentioned her.

Furthermore, there were speculations and reports about her series of stock selections, and some even deified her image.

However, many things, such as the stock data for her selections, were indeed real.

Under the gaze of more than twenty eyes, An Yinan took a sip of ice water and then nodded, "It is me!"

Those who had just been frantically thinking it was impossible now stared with wide, dumbfounded eyes.

"How is that possible?" Zhao Siyu covered her mouth, her eyes wide.

People are just like this; when they don't know the truth, they can't help but make all sorts of guesses, but once they know the truth, they can't help but doubt it.

An Yinan smiled, "How is it impossible?"

Li Zai, who was following behind, silently raised his hand, "I can testify. After the lady arrived in City, I participated in every stock she invested in."

When he saw everyone's admiring gazes, he hurriedly waved his hands, blushing a little.

"The participation I'm talking about means that whichever one the lady told me to buy, I bought... I was the person responsible for running errands and trading."

If he hadn't been in this line of work, he probably wouldn't have known the lady.

Nor would he have the life he had today. Now his older brother was better. Although he lacked common sense in life and couldn't do anything, it was already much better than before, when he had to be fed.

There was even something to look forward to in the days ahead, and all of this was because of the lady.

"That is also very impressive. Teacher An is very picky!"

"She wouldn't keep people she doesn't look favorably upon by her side. Li Zai, don't belittle yourself," Fang Qi said quickly upon seeing his flushed face.

Introverts understand introverts; she understood that feeling of having words in one's heart, wanting to participate, but being unable to say it.

Li Zai hurriedly glanced at Fang Qi, then rubbed the back of his head in a simple, honest way.

An Yinan smiled, "The witness is here too. Do you believe it now?"

"Clearing up your doubts is to let you relax. Even in City, you have someone to rely on."

"So you can perform well tomorrow."

Having said this, she clapped her hands and then said, "Tomorrow will be a tough battle. I hope we can fight it beautifully. Rest now."

"Yes!"

All at once, everyone answered naturally.

An Yinan returned to the master bedroom, looking at this place she had left for several months, preserved just as it was.

"Wait! You, can you talk before you act from now on?"

"We've already arrived in City. Even if you've been here before, your status is different now. The room must be thoroughly checked before you can come in."

"Who knows if there are listening devices, assassination equipment, or bombs?"

"Your thinking is too pure. When you're out and about, you must be careful in everything you do." Yanhuo nagged incessantly, like an old mother. Looking at her, where was the charm she had before?

She stepped in her high heels, walked around the room, and then checked the wardrobe, vanity mirror, and so on, as well as the bedding, the ceiling, the windows, the curtains—everything in the room was checked by her.

Don't say...

Really don't say...

As her high heels stepped, a floor tile made a different sound. Yanhuo immediately squatted down, then used a small knife to gently pry open the floor tile, and saw what was buried underneath.

An Yinan's eyes narrowed, and then she shook her head. It was within expectations.

A bomb...

She didn't come in because she was truly ignorant, but because she didn't want the people protecting her outside to get hurt. They needed a little test, but her eyes could penetrate everything and see what she wanted to see.

"This place of yours isn't secure at all."

Yanhuo looked up at An Yinan. Such small bombs were rare internationally and only existed in a fixed number of countries, but what she could guarantee was that Eagle Country did not have them.

It seemed that some countries wanted to muddy the waters.

An Yinan lowered her head and smiled, "Yes, it can be called a place known to everyone."

Yanhuo looked up instantly, "Are you crazy?"

She wanted to check An Yinan's head; was there something missing in this person's brain?

At a time like this, not only did she not pay attention to safety, she even came to a place everyone knew.

An Yinan raised her eyebrows, "You dismantle it first."

Afterwards, relying on her X-ray Vision, she searched for the instruments she didn't see step by step...

Seeing her familiar and practiced manner, if Yanhuo hadn't been with her all these days, she would have thought these things were installed by her herself.

After removing the last listening device, An Yinan walked out of the room carrying those things directly. Seeing the people guarding the living room, she threw the items to the Captain of the Third Team.

"Except for one bomb, they are all here. The other rooms are left to you."

It was mainly because she was tired; upon returning to the room, she didn't care about Yanhuo, who was squatting on the floor dismantling the bomb, and instead lay on the bed, smelling the scent of the sun on it, knowing that Han Xiao must have had the quilt aired out, and then she closed her eyes.

Yanhuo could not worry about anything else now; the bomb's protective layer was being removed by her bit by bit, and she saw the wires inside.

"An Yinan, what color do you like?" Just then, Yanhuo suddenly asked.

An Yinan answered in a half-asleep, half-awake state, "Green."

Yanhuo saw her state, then shrugged her shoulders; green, huh?

Then...

Her hand holding the scissors did not hesitate in the slightest, and she cut directly, with the target being that green wire.

An Yinan had her eyes closed, but the corners of her mouth curved into an arc.

Deeply hiding merit and fame.

Yanhuo looked at the bomb that had stopped; she had already prepared herself to die a hero's death, and that was it?

What damn good luck.

She walked out of the room and gave the bomb to the Captain.
