Chapter 147: High-Tech Products

If it were the Li family from before, they certainly couldn't compare to the Zhang family, but now the Li family has many experts and is even collaborating with people from R Country. Their strength is even on par with some major families, so they might truly be a match for the Zhang family.

With the addition of the Zhang family, Huang Laohu and Wu Di felt much more at ease.

The reason I introduced Zhang Wu to them was precisely to give them peace of mind. Once they knew Zhang Wu’s identity, and with Sister Ling as a backer, they wouldn't be too worried, at least.

"Since the Zhang family has joined, we can rest easy. Boss, it mainly depends on you. You need to speed up your actions on your end, otherwise, we really might not be able to hold out for much longer!" Wu Di said to me.

I nodded and said, "Alright, that’s it for today. We have some things to attend to later, so we’ll be heading off first!"

I left with Zhang Yinuo and Third Brother and the others. After we finished eating, Fifth Brother originally wanted to treat us to karaoke, but I declined because I wanted to discuss the secret chamber in that internet cafe with Zhang Yinuo. After all, we could use this as a breakthrough point to deal with the Li family.

However, even so, they didn't seem to want to leave. Seeing Third Brother and Fifth Brother nearby, I blurted out, "What are you two doing? Why aren't you heading back?"

"What do you mean heading back? Where are you planning to go?" Third Brother looked at me with suspicion.

"Nothing, where could I go? I’m just wandering around. You guys go back first!" I said, feeling guilty.

"Fine, going back is fine. Come, Sister-in-law, since we’re going the same way, let’s go together!" Third Brother said directly to Zhang Yinuo beside me.

I quickly intervened, "Hey, that won't work. You can't take her!"

"Don't you have things to do? What is it? You have business with Sister-in-law?" Third Brother looked at me with a wicked grin.

I knew Third Brother must be suspicious of my motive for not going back, but this matter was definitely better kept to as few people as possible. I didn't want to drag Third Brother and Fifth Brother into it; it was too dangerous, and the Li family's secret chamber wouldn't be easy to infiltrate.

"Can't we go on a date?" I said to Third Brother, feeling annoyed.

Upon hearing my words, Zhang Yinuo’s usually calm expression actually showed a subtle change. She looked at me strangely, but recovered after a moment.

"A date? Really? Why is it so hard to believe? Honestly, are you two planning something?" Third Brother intended to get to the bottom of it.

"Really, it’s just a date!" I felt a wave of guilt.

"Third, you’re becoming more and more dishonest. I’ve known you for so many years, do you think you can fool me? The way you are right now, you’re clearly lying!" Third Brother snorted.

Hearing Third Brother’s words, I didn't know what to say for a moment. Zhang Yinuo, who was beside me, said, "If it won't work, just tell him. It’s better to have a helper for this matter!"

"Hear that? Sister-in-law said so, what are you still thinking about? Don't you know your status in the family?" Third Brother said with a hint of anger.

Seeing that Third Brother was about to lose his temper, I sighed helplessly and said, "Alright, the situation is this: we previously discovered a secret passage in Li Hong’s internet cafe. It’s most likely an experimental base for the Li family. Because it was too late before, we didn't dare to explore it for long, so tonight I plan to go check it out with Zhang Yinuo. After all, the Li family’s momentum is growing, and if we don't find a way to deal with them, we will only get weaker!"

"Oh, is that all? Why were you hiding it? What? Do you look down on your Third Brother? Do you think your Third Brother will drag you down?" Third Brother shouted angrily.

"No, no, I didn't mean that. I just thought it would be more convenient for two people to act, so I didn't plan on asking you!" I quickly explained, feeling awkward.

"Damn, and here I thought of you as a brother. You’re really ungrateful!" Third Brother continued to grumble on the side.

"Third Brother, I didn't, that’s really not what I meant!" I was getting anxious too.

Seeing my reaction, Third Brother smiled and said, "Alright, I’m not teasing you anymore. Isn't it better now that you’ve said it? What can’t be said between brothers? What could I possibly do to you? I understand all this!"

I could only nod awkwardly, while Fifth Brother quickly chimed in, "So you’re going to explore a secret chamber? Great, count me in!"

"No, you can't go!" Before I could speak, Third Brother spoke up first.

"What the hell, what’s going on? Third Brother, you just said everything should be shared between brothers, and now you won't let me go? What’s the meaning of this?" Fifth Brother was very unconvinced.

"It’s not about that. The situation this time will definitely be very dangerous. If you go, we won't have any way to spare our hands to protect you!" Although Third Brother’s words were hurtful, he had to say it to keep Fifth Brother from going.

Hearing this, Fifth Brother said with great dissatisfaction, "I know I can't help with fighting, but I can definitely help in other ways. Aren't you going to scout the secret chamber below? At least I can keep watch for you up top. Besides, the place you mentioned is an internet cafe. Surfing the net is normal there anyway. If I’m surfing the net and keeping watch for you, no one will notice me, and I won't be in any danger!"

"How could there be no danger? And how will you signal us from up there? Whether a phone vibrates or rings, it will expose you. And if you signal us, you definitely won't be able to run!" Third Brother said.

"You don't need to worry about that. I know how to solve this. Look at this!" Suddenly, Fifth Brother took out a few things that looked like bracelets or wristbands.

Third Brother and I looked at these items in confusion and asked, "What are these?"

"These are the most advanced high-tech products. As long as you wear them, if I detect any movement outside, I’ll shake my wristband, and your wristbands will also react, emitting a tiny vibration. This vibration can only be sensed by the human body; it can't be heard by the ears!" Fifth Brother said proudly.

"Damn, that’s amazing. This thing must be expensive, right?" Third Brother looked at the wristbands with excitement, observing them closely like a curious child.

"Not expensive. Although they are high-tech products, to be honest, they aren't very useful. No one really uses this stuff; it has no practical application!" Fifth Brother said.

"If that’s the case, then Fifth Brother can come with us and sit near the secret passage of the internet cafe to keep watch. But Fifth Brother, you must be careful and not expose your identity!" I thought for a moment and said.
