But this style of yours is really not suited for teaching... When I see the principal later, I’ll arrange a different position for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah! Bro, it’s really you who’s stepping up!\" Zheng Zai evidently ignored the main point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu rubbed his forehead, thinking that Zheng Zai really had some screws loose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two of them chatted as they walked, but suddenly stopped in their tracks. Wen Xishu hadn’t expected to... meet a second familiar face here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Changfeng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The very person from the Bunker Security Bureau who had interrogated Wen Xishu. He had subjected Wen Xishu to inhumane torture, but ultimately couldn’t get a word out of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pace was led by Wen Xishu, who dragged it out until Albert arrived.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It could be said that the Security Bureau had the chance when it came to extracting Wen Xishu’s secrets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Xie Changfeng missed that chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You! You! It’s you! It’s you!\" Xie Changfeng pointed at Wen Xishu in fury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu made a gesture as if cleaning his ear:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"How come you’re stuttering after just a few days apart? By the way, how did you end up mixed up in the Deceit Tower? Oh, getting more ambitious now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Changfeng’s expression shifted several times, before he finally said viciously:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wen Xishu! You evil Wen Family brat, it’s all your fault I ended up like this!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu replied:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I gave you a chance, let Liu Jinsen interrogate me, but you wouldn’t listen!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The mention of Liu Jinsen obviously hit Xie Changfeng’s sore spot. He shouted angrily:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t be so smug; you Wen Family scum, I know your true identity. Do you believe I won’t reveal who you are right now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu nodded:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Go ahead, do you think the people around will believe you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Changfeng paused, but immediately retorted angrily:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can make everyone in the Bunker know your true identity! I can make everyone in the Three Towers Academy know who you are!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu laughed:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sure, you can talk tough here, but the premise of that toughness is that you make it back alive.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You’re now in the sixth-level area; you must be pretty confident about surviving, right?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Changfeng’s body trembled with fear. He couldn’t even decipher the mission description, let alone complete it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu was not worried about Xie Changfeng surviving to spill his identity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Security Bureau hadn’t done so, indicating that nobody dared to offend Albert.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Changfeng remembered that Wen Xishu was something of a legend in exploring the Deceit Tower, perhaps due to knowing some secret about Wen Chaohua.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He quickly said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You... you help me, or I’ll reveal your identity! You’ve explored the Deceit Tower so many times! You have to help me! My current situation is all your fault.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu was very pleased with this change in Xie Changfeng’s attitude:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Alright, I’ll help you. I’ve explored the sixth level too. Maybe the mission you’re on is one I’ve been on?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Changfeng clung to this lifeline:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The mission is called... called The Parrot Cage game. In Jiangcheng, you have to find the contaminated items!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xie Changfeng looked at Wen Xishu, then glanced at Zheng Zai standing beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu and Zheng Zai exchanged glances, both somewhat astonished. Today’s coincidences were just piling up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu realized that the mission name \"The Wail of the Parrot\" had changed to \"The Parrot Cage game.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This perhaps meant that the mission kept the same format and process, but Tang Rui had moved past her old wounds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this mission was doomed to never reach a level six completion by anyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You! Your expressions, you’ve really been there! You’ve really been there! That’s great, you’ve really been there!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wen Xishu laughed:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Indeed, my buddy here and I have both been there. There are three items in total; purify one of them and you can leave. I just so happen to have intel on all three fully purified items.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But you—you beat me up. Why should I help you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>",687,"2026-06-03T11:12:39.009Z","2026-06-03T11:12:44.449Z",1,"novelbin.me","0cb838a88371159dccdcdeb274ec12d74b795cd1d122ff0cf3290c17e88f0cfb","three-towers-game-chapter-173","three-towers-game-chapter-171",1179,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthree-towers-game-cover.jpg"]
