Chapter 246: A Cat Will Come if There Is Fish
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
In the military building, underground.
After instructing the assault team to hide, Qi Lianjun went to the corridor alone and realized that there was only a cleaner cleaning here.
Qi Lianjun walked forward and asked coldly, “Which department are you from? What are you doing here?”
The janitor looked at his uniform and the tools in his hand. “Isn’t it obvious?”
Qi Lianjun choked, but his expression did not change. “I mean that the cleaning should have ended half an hour ago. What are you still doing here?”
“I’ll have to ask you!”
The cleaner suddenly became emotional. He waved the broom and complained, “I was about to get off work, but someone came to check the rooms. I don’t know where he went, but there’s dirt under his shoes. I have to clean the floor again!”
Qi Lianjun took a look and saw that there was indeed a lot of soil in the dustpan. After thinking for a moment, he asked, ‘What did the person you mentioned do when he was checking the room?”
“What else can he do? He checked if the criminals were still here and registered!”
“He didn’t go in?”
“I didn’t notice, but you can see them from the observation window. I don’t think he needs to go in, right?”
“… Could it be that the sensor is malfunctioning?”
Qi Lianjun frowned and muttered softly. When he realized that the cleaner was still looking at him, he waved his hand. “It’s fine. Continue.”
The cleaner nodded and continued sweeping. Qi Lianjun stared at the other party for a while more before finally shaking his head and turning to leave.
It was not until Qi Lianjun called out the assault team and entered the elevator that the cleaner stopped what he was doing. He gently shook the dustpan twice, and the “General Prison Unlock Card” was revealed.
“There’s indeed something wrong with this card…”
The cleaner, or rather, Turk, sneered. He took one last look at Tian Qiang’s cell and left unhurriedly.
In the commander-in-chief’s office.
Chen Jinrong lay on the chair and closed his eyes to rest. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
“Enter! ”
Chen Jinrong shouted and opened his eyes. He happened to see Qi Lianjun push open the door and enter. “How is it? Did you catch him?”
Qi Lianjun shook his head and roughly explained the situation just now. He paused and said, “I’ve already checked the surveillance cameras. There was indeed a person in military uniform who went there and tried to open the door, but… ”
“But what?”
Qi Lianjun hesitated for a moment and whispered, “But it’s not Andu’s cell. It’s a prisoner called Tian Qiang.”
“Tian Qiang…’
Chen Jinrong thought for a moment. “Is it that student who couldn’t take the torture and finally joined Andu?”
“Yes.”
Qi Lianjun nodded and hesitated for a while before saying, “Speaking of Tian Qiang—Commander, Wang Xiao looked for you today to arrange for someone to meet Tian Qiang. That person is…”
“Tell him no.”
Chen Jinrong refused without waiting for Qi Lianjun to finish. “Tian Qiang’s treatment is at a critical stage. It’s best not to let him suffer any stimulation. If he wants to meet him… He can do so in a week.”
“Got it. I’ll find an opportunity to inform Wang Xiao later.”
Qi Lianjun agreed and his expression became solemn again. “By the way, Commander, the general unlock card you used to lure the snake out of the cave is gone. I’ve already sent people to guard nearby. Once someone returns it, we’ll immediately capture them.”
Chen Jinrong thought for a moment and shook his head. “Recall them. He’s definitely not a fool to be able to infiltrate here. He should have already discovered that he had fallen into a trap. If he discovers that someone is guarding him, he will definitely hide even deeper in the future.”
Qi Lianjun hurriedly said, “But if we miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to capture him again! ”
“Calm down. A cat will come if there is fish.”
Chen Jinrong replied calmly, as if he did not take this matter to heart. “Don’t forget, don’t we still have bait?”
“Andu?”
Qi Lianjun guessed. As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately shook his head. “No, no. The other party’s target is not Andu… The bait you’re talking about is Tian Qiang?”
Chen Jinrong smiled and did not reply. He only let out a long sigh with a complicated expression. ‘”A Purple Star cultivator snuck into the military building’. That’s what Wang Xiao said that day. At that time, I didn’t believe him, but now… Sigh! The younger generation really surpasses us!”
Looking at Chen Jinrong’s lonely expression, Qi Lianjun could not help but reveal a worried expression. “Commander, you don’t have to blame yourself.
It’s not that we’re useless this time, but the enemy is too cunning.”
“No matter how cunning the enemy is, it’s not a reason for us to fail.”
Chen Jinrong said in a low voice, “The battle at the front line is tense now, and the Purple Star people have come to play tricks on us. If we don’t pull out this nail as soon as possible, the consequences will be unimaginable!”
Qi Lianjun’s face darkened and he did not say anything. He knew very well how tense the current situation was, but he really had no choice.
After a moment of silence, Qi Lianjun suddenly asked, “Commander, there’s something I don’t understand. According to Wang Xiao, the Purple Star people should be here to find the lost holy beast. It’s understandable that they went to look for Andu, but why are they looking for Tian Qiang?”
Chen Jinrong’s eyes flickered. “Do you have something in mind?”
“It’s nothing biz. I iust haDDened to think of something else.”
Qi Lianjun roughly explained what had happened at Kaiyang Restaurant. He paused and said, “Although Wang Xiao didn’t find out anything from talking to Tian Gang, it’s certain that Tian Gang encountered a problem.”
“At the same time, someone wants to enter Tian Qiang’s cell tonight and Tian Gang is Tian Qiang’s brother. Therefore, I’m wondering if there’s a connection between these two things.”
“Tian Gang… Tian Qiang…”
Chen Jinrong muttered to himself and pondered for a moment. His expression turned serious as he said in a low voice, “I want to see this Tian Gang tomorrow. At the same time, I want to place surveillance on Tian Qiang’s cell. Remember! The surveillance must be hidden. Let’s see who wants to approach him.”
“Yes!”
Qi Lianjun nodded and was about to leave when Chen Jinrong stopped him again and took out an envelope from the drawer.
“This was received this afternoon.”
Chen Jinrong placed the envelope on the table. There were only seven words written on it: “For Commander-in -Chief Chen to open.” “You have time to find out who sent this letter.”
In the territory.
Wang Xiao and Tang Longji sat opposite each other. Neither of them spoke, and the atmosphere was even a little oppressive.
After a long time, Wang Xiao finally said, “It’s not a solution to spend so much time thinking. In order to let the other party approach me at ease, Commander Chen and I put on a show of falling out. Therefore, I can only trouble Uncle
Tang to pay more attention to the military.”
“Hey! We’re all lords of the Blue Planet. What’s so troublesome about it?”
Tang Longji smiled boldly and then revealed a troubled expression. “It’s just that recently, in order to go to Blue Planet University to investigate Wu Yan, I’ve accumulated several missions at the Lord’s Shop…” Wang Xiao frowned. “Don’t tell me you want to withdraw?”
“No, no!”
Tang Longji waved his hand repeatedly and probed with a hesitant expression, “Actually… I want to ask you to help..
