Chapter 213 What Everyone Doesn't Know. (I'm back, updates will resume tomorrow!)
After Wu Xiangnan left, Kong Shang, who had been silent all along, couldn't help but speak up.
Kong Shang: "Captain... wouldn't this be too much?"
emm......”
Xia Simeng waved her hand dismissively, "The higher-ups didn't say we had to take Wu Xiangnan back... and time is running out in Cangnan City."
Kong Shang: "But the task given to us by the higher-ups is..."
Xia Simeng: "Have we delayed the mission?"
Kong Shang shook his head. "...No."
"That's terrible! We haven't delayed the mission. As for what Wu Xiangnan and Team 136 will do in the coming days, it doesn't matter since we haven't done anything," Xia Simeng said, spreading her hands. She didn't think it was a big problem.
It's not like before, when I almost ended up in a military court.
"The fasting place" is not a place to stay comfortably.
The Phoenix team is comprised entirely of women, except for Kong Shang.
It is not widely known that women are emotional.
They fully support Xia Simeng regarding Wu Xiangnan's situation, but have concerns about Kong Shang...
They thought the same thing as Xia Simeng.
"Then let's do it your way." One's perspective is determined by one's position; even if Kong Shang were stupid, he knew that Xia Simeng had already made a decision.
Although he was somewhat puzzled by the sudden transfer of Wu Xiangnan by the higher-ups, the Night Watch's higher-ups always had a longer-term vision and more meticulous thinking than them, the "ordinary" Night Watchmen.
Rationally speaking, he did have the idea of getting Wu Xiangnan to obey orders.
“Alright, Wu Xiangnan has left now.” Xia Simeng looked around at her teammates and said seriously, “We should also finish our mission. The Outer Gods have either been killed or run away, but the crisis in Cangnan City has not been resolved. What we can do is to make sure that Cangnan City is alright in the remaining time.”
"Understood! Captain!"
Kong Shang added, "We should be wary of those Outer Gods who might return at any time, and the Ancient God Church members who are trying to get involved."
"It would be abnormal if we didn't see those troublemakers from the Ancient God Church during this crisis in Cangnan City. They might be lying in ambush nearby right now, so remember to call for help if you see anything suspicious while you're on patrol."
Xia Simeng: "Alright, let's all get back to our own business! Disperse!"
Xia Simeng stopped Kong Shang and said, "I'll leave it to you to inform Instructor Hong Hao."
Kong Shang nodded. "Yes, otherwise, we wouldn't be able to protect Cangnan City with just our special team and logistics personnel."
......
When Wu Xiangnan returned to the underground activity room of the Peace Agency.
Chen Muyi had already put his clothes back on, since apart from Si Xiaonan and Hongying, all the other members of Squad 136 had lived here before.
Finding an outfit won't be a problem.
However, Wu Xiangnan was still stunned when she saw Chen Muyi, who had been reborn from the ashes.
"Captain, what... what happened?" Wu Xiangnan asked, her voice choked with emotion.
Because Chen Muye's appearance and demeanor were completely different from before, even Wu Xiangnan, one of the people most familiar with Chen Muye, was somewhat hesitant to believe that the Chen Muye in front of him was the real one.
"You old scoundrel from Xiangnan, you can't believe it either, right? Me too! ... I don't know how to describe it... but the captain might... not have to die!" Hongying stammered excitedly before Chen Muye could even reply, completely different from how she had acted when she was arguing with Chen Muye before.
It hops and skips.
Wu Xiangnan was stunned for a moment when he heard Hongying's words.
He seemed to be pondering the veracity of Hongying's words...
After all, if the problem could really be solved, the Night Watchers wouldn't have made the Phoenix Squad "guard the corpses" for the remaining people in Cangnan City.
"Captain..." Wu Xiangnan turned to look at Chen Muyi, who was standing silently to the side, swallowed hard, and tentatively asked, "What Hongying said...is it true?"
Chen Muyi nodded and said, "If my feeling is correct... that's right."
"Why are you concerned about this?" Liu Lang pulled Wu Xiangnan, who was still looking on in surprise, over. "While I still have the strength, let's solve your problems first!"
"Huh?" Wu Xiangnan looked completely bewildered. "What's wrong with me?"
Wu Xiangnan raised his hand, looked at this, and then looked at that.
They weren't missing any limbs, and they weren't like Chen Muyi...
"What problems could you possibly have that you don't understand?" Liu Lang stared into his eyes, finally asking, word by word, "Un...Death...Sword...Bodyguard?"
"this....."
"Come on, please!"
"Huh?" Wu Xiangnan still didn't understand what was going on, how Liu Lang knew about his affairs.
He doesn't seem to remember telling anyone about this.
Since arriving in Cangnan City, no one except Chen Muyi has known his true identity.
Liu Lang said... the solution to his problem wouldn't be...
He dared not think too much about it, but what on earth was that smile on Liu Lang's face?!
Something felt off. He tried to break free, but...
It's completely useless~
"Sweetie, relax, just go all in and it'll be over."
All-in poker is an art!
Wu Xiangnan: "Ah~ Oh~"
Hongying covered her eyes...
