Chapter 191: The Best Way is to Find a Backer
Jinfeng Popo had not yet had the chance to be taken away.
Wang Zhenqiu hurried forward to check on Jinfeng Popo's condition, and upon discovering that her mind had been clouded by Qi, he channeled his own Qi to disperse it; after she regained consciousness, this was exactly what Wang Zhenqiu said.
"It's you, little one!"
Jinfeng Popo was no longer young, and after being tossed about this time, her body felt weak, so she was helped up by Wang Zhenqiu.
"How about I send you back first?"
Listening to the sounds of explosions and whistling coming from afar, Wang Zhenqiu knew the other few Temporary Workers were still in pursuit.
"Qiu'er, doing this isn't quite right."
Xiao Zizai, with his tall, thin frame and glasses, looked like an office worker, but the dangerous aura on him could be felt from far away, like a bloodthirsty beast.
"Brother Xiao, didn't we agree on this? Besides, Jinfeng Popo has been living there quietly for so many years; the Company must have known about it."
Wang Zhenqiu turned his head and offered a fawning smile, but his body involuntarily tensed up in defense.
"Just make sure you know what you're doing!"
Xiao Zizai pushed up his glasses, his gaze falling upon the few people who had fainted on the ground.
"These people cannot be killed. The Company will send someone to take them away for interrogation; if they are killed, there will be no bonus for this mission."
Just as Xiao Zizai was about to step forward, Chen Duo walked out; her pace was not fast, her speaking speed was not fast, and there was no emotion in her voice.
But Wang Zhenqiu and Xiao Zizai were both on guard at the same time.
Both of them had seen the scene of Chen Duo making her move just moments ago.
She could crush people with just the sheer volume of her Qi.
Where did this monster pop out from?
Chen Duo did not care about their gazes; she squatted down beside one person to check their condition, then took out her phone.
"Liao Shu, I've caught a few people. Yes, they are all unconscious. Have the Company send someone to take them away."
"Alright, I understand."
"Yes, I caught a few alive this time, so the bonus should be a bit higher."
"Yes, I will be careful!"
After Chen Duo finished speaking, she stuffed her phone back into her pocket and looked up at the two people watching her.
"Uh, Sister Chen, what about us?"
"You all discuss it. I am going to guard these people; the Company will send someone to receive them later!"
After Chen Duo finished speaking, Feng Baobao and Zhang Chulan walked over.
Feng Baobao's hair was disheveled, clearly showing that the previous exchange had been quite intense.
Wang Zhenqiu turned his head and glanced at Xiao Zizai.
"Qiu'er, do your job!"
Xiao Zizai waved his hand, walked to the side, leaned against a few stacked concrete pipes, and sized up Chen Duo.
"Sister Chen!"
Zhang Chulan leaned in toward Chen Duo with a fawning smile.
"Yes, Feng Baobao, I've topped up my balance again; I will definitely win this time."
Chen Duo nodded and looked directly past Zhang Chulan at Feng Baobao.
Feng Baobao stared, then let out a soft huff and tilted her head up.
Someone who loses every single battle actually dares to say such things.
Lao Meng walked over slowly, looking somewhat disheveled.
"Chen Duo, you aren't hurt, are you?"
Seeing Chen Duo squatting on the ground with Feng Baobao, Lao Meng asked.
"Even if you were hurt, she wouldn't be."
Xiao Zizai squinted his eyes as he sized up Lao Meng.
This person's ability is somewhat strange.
Beast Master.
Huh, that doesn't seem right.
Xiao Zizai stroked his chin.
Having eaten his fill, his slightly goofy brain had taken the high ground again.
Madmen are all neurotic.
The Company's people were very fast; clearly, they had also received orders. They arrived without a word and quickly left with the people.
Wang Zhenqiu also returned shortly after.
However, Jinfeng Popo was nowhere to be seen.
Clearly, she had been sent away.
The group started a fire in a nearby factory building to discuss the current situation.
"Since we didn't keep everyone, the difficulty of this operation will increase."
Xiao Zizai said.
But none of them had much of a reaction.
Or rather, they didn't take these words to heart.
"Actually, it's about the same; in fact, this is quite good."
Zhang Chulan spoke up directly.
"Anyway, even if we hadn't clashed with these people today, we would have been suspected if we had just gone there directly."
After all, there aren't many normal people in this team.
"On the contrary, by alerting the enemy like this, when we arrive at the destination, the other side might not dare to act rashly; after all, our identities haven't been exposed yet."
Zhang Chulan said with a beaming smile.
"No, actually they will be exposed, after all, the two of you!"
Wang Zhenqiu was poking at the campfire with a stick, and upon hearing Zhang Chulan say this, he immediately retorted.
"It's one thing for us, but you two don't really think your identities are a secret, do you? After all, everyone knows the legend of the Shameless One from Longhu Mountain."
Mentioning this, Zhang Chulan's expression turned somewhat awkward.
"Fair enough, then what do you suggest we do?"
Zhang Chulan looked at Wang Zhenqiu.
"It was made clear when we came this time that our operation does not represent the Company; the main goal is to resolve this trouble, and if any trouble arises, it has nothing to do with the Company."
As Wang Zhenqiu said this, his eyes were observing the expressions of the few people around him.
However, none of their expressions seemed to change.
"Damn, you guys don't have any reaction at all; this is leaving us to take the fall."
Wang Zhenqiu was stunned.
"Isn't that exactly what we're here for?"
Xiao Zizai squinted his eyes as he looked at Wang Zhenqiu.
"Qiu'er, you're so smart, you couldn't have failed to think of that, right?"
"Brother Xiao, look at what you're saying; I'm not smart at all, whereas this Brother Shameless here has a much better head on his shoulders."
Wang Zhenqiu gave a sheepish smile and shifted the topic to Zhang Chulan.
"Don't, this little brother wouldn't dare compare myself to you all."
Zhang Chulan said, but in his heart, he was already thinking of a countermeasure.
The matter of Biyou Village this time was the goal, but there was another objective.
Temporary Workers are useful tools for the Company because each one is strong enough.
Feng Baobao's identity is her protective umbrella.
And if these people, who are also Temporary Workers, could stand on Feng Baobao's side when things happen in the future, it would be beneficial for Feng Baobao.
After all, if the lips are gone, the teeth will be cold.
Everyone is a Temporary Worker; if one gets into trouble and you don't speak up, and two get into trouble and you don't speak up, when it's your turn, no one will speak up for you either.
But the trouble now is that there is no carrier.
Actually, there is a better way to resolve Feng Baobao's situation.
Find a backer strong enough for Feng Baobao.
Unfortunately, there aren't many people who can truly serve as that backer.
Counting them all up, there's only Lao Tianshi of Longhu Mountain and Master Lin Xuan.
Even the Four Great Families aren't qualified; after all, the Four Great Families seem to be a bit murky, such as the Wang Family.
Provoking Lin Xuan almost resulted in being slapped to death.
From Xu San and Xu Si, after Zhang Chulan heard about the current state of the Wang Family, he felt that Lin Xuan was the most suitable.
The key is, he can't get a word in.
Thinking of this, Zhang Chulan's face was full of helplessness.
It's a tough one!
"If it's tough, then don't do it."
Wang Zhenqiu's voice made Zhang Chulan jump.
Only then did Zhang Chulan realize that Wang Zhenqiu's arm was draped over his shoulder, and his face was right next to his.
"Shameless, what are you thinking about? Say it out loud for us to hear."
"No, I'm not thinking about anything."
Zhang Chulan immediately shook his head.
"Is that so?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Zhenqiu didn't press further, withdrew his arm, and sat back in his own spot, then his eyes darted back and forth between Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao, a gaze that made Zhang Chulan feel somewhat flustered.
