The next morning.
Wang Xiao had just woken up when his communicator rang. Wang Xiao took a look and picked up. “Senior Ma, what’s wrong?”
“I have something to tell you.”
Ma Yunle’s voice was very soft, as if it was inconvenient for her to speak. “I saw the two people last night just now. I originally wanted to return the money to them as you said, but they ran away when they saw me!” “They ran away again?
Wang Xiao was stunned. “What happened after that?”
“Later on, I felt that something was wrong with these two people, so I secretly followed them—”
At this point, Ma Yunle’s tone suddenly changed. “Guess where they went?”
Hearing Ma Yunle’s mysterious tone, Wang Xiao could not help but be interested. “Whe?” ‘Yaoguang Academy! ”
“What?” Wang Xiao was stunned. “They’re students of Yaoguang Academy?”
“Sort of.”
Ma Yunle replied ambiguously. He paused for a moment and said, “I’ve asked around. They’re transfer students from the Xiling Region. It’s their first day of class today.”
Xiling Region, two brothers, the first day of class…
A few keywords flashed through his mind. Wang Xiao instantly recalled that in Kaiyang Restaurant, Lan Dahai had said that he was looking for Tian Gang to arrange for his two nephews to enter an academy. At that time, Tian Gang had recommended Yaoguang Academy!
The time, place, and people all matched. If this was just a coincidence, wasn’t it too much of a coincidence?
Without any hesitation, Wang Xiao immediately confirmed that the two brothers were the “nephews” Lan Dahai had mentioned.
He knew that there was something wrong with Lan Dahai and the two brothers. Now that the three of them were related, it meant that there was a huge problem!
Thinking of this, Wang Xiao thought for a moment and said to Ma Yunle, “Senior Ma, I want to ask you for a favor. Don’t do anything for the next few days. Keep an eye on those two brothers!”
“What they do every day, where they go, who they meet and what they say. In short, I want to know everything about them. As for the labor fee… deduct it from my payment!”
“Alright! I promise to complete the mission! ”
Ma Yunle agreed and hung up the communicator. After thinking for a moment, Wang Xiao called Lin Xiang.
“Manager Lin.”
As soon as the call was picked up, Wang Xiao went straight to the point and said, “The Lord’s Shop also accepts missions, right? I want to ask you to help me monitor someone.”
After setting everything up, Wang Xiao went out to Yuheng Academy.
He originally wanted to use the opportunity of taking leave to see if he could get anything out of Tian Gang, but when he arrived at the office, he realized that the other party was not around.
“You’re here to look for Teacher Tian, right?”
The teacher at the next table asked and handed over a lesson plan. “He’s not feeling well today and took leave. I’ll be teaching your class in a while. Help me bring the lesson plan over first.”
“He’s feeling unwell?”
Wang Xiao was stunned when he heard this. The last time they met, Tian Gang was still fine. Why did he suddenly feel unwell?
There was definitely something wrong!
Wang Xiao’s heart skipped a beat. He turned around and ran out of the office. When he went out, he happened to bump into Zhou Xiruo. He waved his hand and called out, “Follow me!”
“Where are you going?”
Before Zhou Xiruo could react, Wang Xiao had already run far away. Although she did not know what was going on, she could only hurriedly follow behind.
After leaving the Yuheng Academy, Wang Xiao ran for more than ten minutes before finally stopping near a residential area.
Zhou Xiruo took a few deep breaths and asked curiously, “Wang Xiao, where is this? You rushed over. What happened?”
“This is Teacher Tian’s house.”
Wang Xiao raised his chin at a building not far away. “I suspect that Teacher Tian has been instigated to rebel.”
“What?!”
Zhou Xiruo exclaimed. When she reacted, she hurriedly lowered her voice.
“What did you say just now? Why would Teacher Tian rebel?”
“It’s just a feeling.”
Wang Xiao stared at Tian Gang’s residence and replied softly. Then, he roughly told him about Lan Dahai and the Lang brothers.
After pausing for a few seconds for Zhou Xiruo to digest this information, Wang Xiao continued, “When we saw Teacher Tian, he clearly seemed to be in a difficult position.”
Zhou Xiruo thought for a moment and nodded. Then, she revealed a puzzled expression. “But with Teacher Tian’s personality, will he be coerced?”
“No one is perfect… Teacher Tian also has a weakness.”
Wang Xiao raised his chin at Tian Gang’s residence. “The two brothers went to Yaoguang Academy this morning, which means that Teacher Tian has already completed their request. Now, they should be the ones who will complete Teacher Tian’s request.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them saw the door of Tian Gang’s residence open and two people in military uniforms walk out.
“Someone from the military?”
Zhou Xiruo looked surprised. “They’re here to look for Teacher Tian?”
Wang Xiao shook his head and was about to say that he didn’t know when his pupils suddenly constricted. He pointed at one of them and asked Zhou Xiruo, “Look quickly! Is that person Teacher Tian?”
Zhou Xiruo took a closer look and was even more surprised. “It’s really Teacher Tian! I almost didn’t recognize him without his glasses… Wait! Teacher Tian is also from the military?
Wang Xiao did not say anything because the current situation was really too chaotic.
However, he was certain of one thing. Tian Gang was definitely not from the military. Otherwise, with his relationship with Tian Qiang, it was impossible for Qi Lianjun to not know of his existence.
In this moment of distraction, the two of them had already boarded the military vehicle and left.
“They’re gone!”
Zhou Xiruo exclaimed. Wang Xiao subconsciously wanted to chase after the other party, but just as he raised his foot, he put it down again. He did not have such good stamina to chase after four wheels with two legs.
After thinking for a moment, Wang Xiao took out his communicator and dialed a number. “Adjutant Qi, the people in a military vehicle are very suspicious. I want you to pay attention. The license plate number is…”
Kaiyang City, military building.
After Qi Lianjun hung up the communicator, he sent the license plate number to the surveillance room and went to the commander-in-chief’s office on the top floor.
Knock knock knock!
“Enter! ”
Hearing Chen Jinrong’s permission, Qi Lianjun pushed open the door and entered. Then, he took out an envelope with the words “For Commander Chen” and placed it on the table.
“Sir, I’ve asked someone from the surveillance room to check. This letter was thrown in from afar early yesterday morning.”
As Qi Lianjun spoke, he took out a few more photos from the surveillance camera. They clearly captured the entire process of a burly middle-aged man throwing the envelope.
After Chen Jinrong saw the photo, Qi Lianjun continued, “The other party didn’t hide at all. We’ve already found out this person’s identity. His name is Tang Longji. He’s a level five lord and once served in the Central Continent Military Region. He returned to Kaiyang about a year ago.”
“Does he have military experience?”
Chen Jinrong frowned slightly, as if he could not figure out something.
Qi Lianjun hesitated for a moment and could not help but probe, “Sir, what’s in that letter?”
Chen Jinrong pondered for a moment and waved his hand. “It’s been hard on you. You can leave first.”
…Yes!”
Qi Lianjun agreed and was about to leave when the walkie-talkie at his waist suddenly rang.. “Adjutant Qi! This is the surveillance room! The car you asked us to pay attention to is here!”
