Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Xu Bai looked at Su Meng’s face and pursed lips.
Silence.
Good God.
He was right?
The next second.
“Huh.”
Xu Bai could not help but laugh. Confused, he asked, “Can you tell me the reason?”
Xu Bai knew about Su Meng’s family background. Even if Su Meng wanted to be an ordinary agent, her parents would probably not want their only daughter to get shot on the job.
Except…
The timing of this was a little coincidental.
In the afternoon, Su Meng had visited her uncle. She had planned to use the information she had gotten to exchange for some information that they did not have.
Finally, Su Meng asked him if he could give her the credit for this murder case. No matter how one looked at it, it seemed abnormal and suspicious. Su Meng bit her lip.
After Xu Bai finished speaking, he did not ask further questions. Instead, he ate the beef skewers while waiting for Su Meng to ask her favor.
Old Bull’s beef skewers were getting better and better.
After a while.
Su Meng clenched and unclenched her fists under the table. She seemed to have made up her mind. She looked up at Xu Bai. “Master, if I tell you, will you give me the credit for killing Liu San?”
Xu Bai raised his head and looked at her. “Even if you don’t tell me, I’ll give it to you anway if you want it. Just treat it as my gift to you.”
In any case, he did not want to be promoted and leave. To Xu Bai, money was more important.
He would not give credit to just anyone for free; he would want money in exchange. Su Meng was, after all, Xu Bai’s first disciple. Xu Bai felt that it was fine to give her a gift.
Su Meng looked at Xu Bai, with an expression that said, “As long as you say it, I’ll give it to you.” Her big eyes sparkled. She gritted her teeth and told Xu Bai in a low voice what happened when she visisted her uncle.
Her uncle appeared professional. Homeland Security had taken away the local police department case. This operation was normal.
Su Meng told her uncle about Liu San’s strange behavior, like when he said “I was planning to stabilize myself for a few days after coming to this world, but I didn’t expect you government dogs to come knocking on my door.” Upon hearing that, Su Meng’s uncle became dead serious.
After a while, Su Meng’s uncle asked if she had killed Liu San or Xu Bai.
“Special Disaster Operations?”
“Yeah.”
Su Meng hummed softly and nodded. “Uncle, you’re talking about the operation team that stole our case.”
Xu Bai nodded. “Then, your uncle asked you to negotiate with me and to see if I could give you the credit for killing Liu San so that you can join this special ops group?”
Su Meng’s eyes were wide open and her mouth was agape. She looked shocked. “Master, Brother Bai, how did you know?”
Xu Bai glanced at Su Meng and smiled. “Was it that hard to figure out? Alright, I agree.”
Su Meng’s eyes widened again.
“Master…”
Xu Bai smiled and said, “That’s normal. This department sounds very prestigious. Moreover, this kind of department has a name. There might be other benefits. Therefore, it’s better to get in earlier than later.”
If he was right, the people in this so-called Special Disaster Operations Group should be cultivating superhumans like Zheng Sen and Gu Hongyu.
Although Xu Bai did not know much about cultivation, he knew that it was better to cultivate earlier than later.
‘So…’
Since his disciple had such a good opportunity, Xu Bai felt no need or desire to get in the way.
Besides…
This was Su Meng’s chance. If it were anyone else like an ordinary probationary agent, they wouldn’t even know which way this special department was going, let alone the importance of this opportunity.
As Xu Bai spoke, he smiled and picked up the coconut in front of him. He looked at Su Meng and said, “Come, Master congratulates you in advance. When you get there, do your best.”
Su Meng’s big eyes were visibly filled with tears.
“Master, do you really want to chase me away?”
“Uh…”
Xu Bai was dumbfounded when he saw Su Meng’s expression change in a second. She was in tears.
“Didn’t you say you wanted to go? With such a good opportunity, I would naturally support you.”
“I want to be with Master.”
There was a clang.
Something fell on the ground in the back kitchen of the barbecue shop.
Xu Bai’s face darkened. He stood up and glanced at another patron not far away.
When the customer met Xu Bai’s gaze, he quickly lowered his head and nibbled on the bamboo stick in his hand.
Xu Bai’s heart skipped a beat.
The first thing he saw was…
The old shop owner squatted on the ground and picked up the things that had fallen to the ground. Then, he looked at Xu Bai, who had opened the curtain to the back of the shop. He looked at Xu Bai. He smiled and said, “Those little brats like to make my life hard.”
Xu Bai narrowed his eyes and looked at the group of people who were running away not far away. He looked at Old Bull who was squatting on the ground. “Wang Qiang and the others?”
Old Bull did not hesitate. “Yes, it’s that group of brats. Xu Bai, you have to teach them a lesson when you have the time. They won’t listen to anyone but you.”
Xu Bai’s eyes flickered as he silently turned around and prepared to leave.
Old Bull stood up from the ground and stopped Xu Bai.
“Little White.”
“…What’s the matter?”
Old Bull walked to Xu Bai’s side. Through the curtain, he glanced at Su Meng, who was sitting in her seat, and then looked at Xu Bai. “Your disciple.”
Xu Bai nodded. “Yes.”
Old Bull opened his mouth and looked at Xu Bai. He seemed to want to say something, but after holding it in for a long time, he finally looked at Xu Bai. “That… Master-disciple relationship. Recently, it’s quite popular… Hey, hey, Xu Bai, wait for me to finish.”
As soon as Old Bull spoke, Xu Bai turned around and left.
Master-disciple relationship?
What was he thinking?
Xu Bai shook his head and returned to his seat. He apologized to Su Meng and asked, “What did you want to say just now?”
He was anxious to go back and properly teach those brats a lesson for eavesdropping on others.
Tears welled up in Su Meng’s eyes. “What happened just now?”
Xu Bai took out a tissue and handed it to Su Meng. “It’s nothing. Continue.”
Su Meng nodded and whispered, “My uncle told me that he’s actually doing this to protect you, Master. Uncle is saying that there’s someone behind Xiao Jingtian, someone even worse and more terrifying.”
“…”
