Returning From Level 900-Chapter 26

Chapter 26: No Blood

“Listen up, everyone,” the chief ordered loudly. “Without my permission, no one is allowed to leak any information about the Earth-shaking Talisman. I’ll report everything to the headquarters!”

The lead guard scratched his head in pain and looked at the chief pleadingly. “Sir, give me another chance! I’ll bring back the Earth-shaking Talisman to prove my innocence!”

“Isn’t it embarrassing enough? We’ll talk about this in my office,” the chief said with a darkened expression as he turned to walk into the office.

The deputy chief said a few words to the four team members and told them to go res. Then, he went out to chase after Wang Wen.

He was a little confused.

“Did you know? Xiao Chen has no strength to go up to the 200th floor.” Deputy Chief Jiang caught up with Wang Wen and asked, “Why did you lure him into the tower?”

Wang Wen had been happy when he noticed that the deputy chief had gone after him. However, his tone changed when he heard his words. “He doesn’t value my friendship.”

The deputy chief said in surprise, “So, you did it on purpose? You want him to die?”

Wang Wen came to a halt and turned his head. “Let’s not talk about whether I have the ability to kill someone. Even if I had, he pursued me from start to finish. Can’t I fight back?” 𝐟𝙧ee𝔀e𝐛𝓃𝐨𝚟𝑒𝗹.c𝗼𝚖

The deputy chief said, “So your counterattack was to use a precious piece of information to put him in a situation where he couldn’t defend himself. His best-case scenario was that he took advantage of the Earth-shaking talisman. Everything he did was to protect the stolen goods and his job. Besides that, his friend broke their trust, and he will have to bear the consequences. But those two methods were not enough.”

He lifted his head and cast a glance at Wang Wen. He made a wild guess that he did not like. “Let me venture a wild guess. There was no Earth-shaking Talisman when he entered the tower, right?”

“Deputy Chief Jiang, if you are here to chat with me, you are welcome to do so.”

Wang Wen stood beside the teleportation door. He said calmly, “If you’re here to uphold justice or solve a case as a detective, I want to say that I am innocent, and I have been detained in the Regional Security Department for 11 days for no reason. I’m tired, and I want to go back and rest.”

“No, no, no.”

The deputy chief suddenly stopped Wang Wen and said shamelessly, “Tell me if you intentionally lured him into the tower. Otherwise, I’ll be worried!”

Wang Wen said, “He’s an adult. Whether he entered the tower or not was his own business. It had nothing to do with me.”

“Were there any Earth-shaking Talisman in the tower when he found someone to go get it?”

Wang Wen waved his hand impatiently and said, “Yes, everything was planned by me. I want to ruin his reputation. It’s best if he can give up his life! Are you satisfied? Take me back and shoot me!”

The scene fell silent for a moment.

After a while, the deputy chief said respectfully, “That’s amazing! I finally understand now.”

Wang Wen frowned. “What do you mean?”

The deputy chief smiled. He turned around and looked at the Regional Security Department entrance, which was almost invisible in the distance. He said in a relaxed tone, “What I mean was, well done!”

The deputy chief smiled happily as he faced Wang Wen’s strange gaze.

He reached out, patted Wang Wen’s shoulder as he smiled, and said, “Don’t look at me like that. I also hate that guy who looks down on others. If he weren’t my colleague, I would have taught him a lesson earlier than you!”

Wang Wen was speechless. He drooped his shoulders, unsure whether to congratulate him or say something else.

He mistook the seemingly selfless deputy chief for someone who was there to solve the case and apprehend him. f𝒓𝑒e𝙬𝒆𝚋𝘯૦𝘷𝐞𝑙.c𝑜𝐦

He had no idea the other party had such a colorful personality.

“One last question!”

The deputy chief raised a finger and asked, “As far as I know, you haven’t left the Regional Security Department in the past 11 days, and you haven’t contacted the outside world at all. It seems like you’ve decided to win from a thousand miles away! How did you do it?”

“Do you really want to know?”

Wang Wen suddenly smiled mysteriously.

The deputy chief nodded blankly.

“Help me buy something to send to the academy, and I’ll tell you.”

Wang Wen took a piece of paper from his pocket and stuffed it into his hand. Then, he turned around and disappeared into the teleportation portal.

The deputy chief opened the paper in confusion, and his expression changed as he looked at it.

A wail sounded beside the teleportation door.

It was one thing to be an errand boy, but he did not even leave any money behind. Was an optical computer something that a deputy chief like him could afford?

When he returned to the academy, it was already late. Wang Wen was dazed as he looked around the academy at the familiar scenery.

The teachers in the academy had nothing to teach him in that life, given his experience.

Despite all of his schemes, he would still return to that location out of habit.

It was as if he had returned home.

He walked through the night under the shade of the trees, enjoying the carefree lives of his classmates and a moment of peace.

He did not want to be greedy for more time.

A bespectacled girl among the two people approaching him called out to him. “Wang Wen? Are you out of prison?”

Wang Wen’s eyes twitched, but he remained silent as he looked at the familiar face.

He remembered her as Cheng Qiaoyi’s best friend.

She was the one who accompanied Cheng Qiaoyi to the classroom to look for him the last time.

The man beside the bespectacled girl secretly glanced at Wang Wen. Then he waved goodbye to the bespectacled girl and turned to walk in another direction.

The bespectacled girl adjusted her glasses and walked forward. She said apologetically, “Sorry, that’s not what I meant. Not a prison. I mean, were you okay at the Regional Security Department? Xiao Yi was very worried about you.”

“I’m fine. Thank you for your concern.” Wang Wen nodded, but his mind recalled the man who had just left.

It was normal if the other party did not know him.

At that time, no one knew him.

However, Wang Wen recalled something about the other party.

Wang Wen recalled a special department in the Tiansheng Group. Its function was similar to that of the First Consortium’s intelligence division, but the name was different.

Perhaps it was to distinguish the First Consortium’s intelligence department from the Tiansheng Group’s intelligence department, which was dubbed the Mirror.

The name was scary, and the members were also terrifying.

It was said that each member had two faces, one for each side of a mirror.

Coincidentally, Wang Wen had seen many of their two-faced members in his previous life.

That person was one of them.

Why did a member of Tiansheng Group’s Mirror appear beside the bespectacled girl?

Wang Wen looked at her silently—from top to bottom, side to side.

The bespectacled girl suddenly had a feeling that she had been stripped naked. She was so frightened that she said, “It’s good that you’re okay.” Then she turned around and ran.

Wang Wen smiled.

He called out to the skinny boy, and they ate supper together before returning to their room to sleep.

He even took a bath before going to bed.

The next morning, he went to the playground to exercise like before he went to jail. He noticed the figure who was earlier than him, sweating profusely.

They had an unspoken understanding. They did their own thing without interfering with each other.

Whoever completed the training first would be the first to leave.

After Wang Wen and the thin boy finished their breakfast together, they were summoned to the academy’s main entrance before being allowed to enter the classroom.

The thin boy was upset because it had been a long time since he had attended class with Wang Wen.

The other student in the classroom was also dissatisfied.

She waited for the entire night after learning that Wang Wen had returned safely. However, he was intercepted before class. She felt very unhappy.

Wang Wen arrived at the academy’s entrance and saw Cheng Qiaoyi and the bespectacled girl next to her.

He walked forward and asked Cheng Qiaoyi curiously.
