Chapter 211: Chapter 207: Return

Two days later, at East Sea International Airport.

A handsome young man wearing sunglasses walked out of the airport, glanced around on the roadside, then took out his phone to make a call. Minutes later, a Santana slowly drove up and stopped at the curb.

After getting in the car, the young man took off his sunglasses and complained to the chubby driver, "With all your money, can’t you afford a better car?"

The chubby man chuckled, "It’s more low-key this way."

"Is everything arranged?"

"Don’t worry, I’ve got it handled." The chubby man started the car and merged into traffic, asking with interest, "Ling Chen, sneaking back to East Sea City this time, did you do something shady?"

"Cut it out." Ling Chen retorted mercilessly: "Looking like you is what’s truly shady."

"Hey, what’s wrong with being fat? Did I eat your food? Spend your money? It’s none of your business. Fat people have a sense of security, unlike you, thin as a rail. Let me tell you, women nowadays like men with a bit of flesh, this is the ideal figure," Hu Fei said, clearly annoyed.

"Alright, alright, I won’t argue with you, just take me to where I’m staying."

Soon, the car arrived at a plain residential complex. The buildings in the complex were old and about to be demolished, with most of the residents already moved out, leaving only a dozen households.

Entering a dilapidated room, Hu Fei tossed the keys to Ling Chen, "This place is very quiet, no one will bother you. Also, the location is excellent, it meets your requirements."

Ling Chen went to the window, pulled back the dusty curtains, and looked outside the complex, nodding, "Not bad, it’s a good spot."

"Right, and I’ve got all the stuff you wanted here." Saying that, Hu Fei dragged out a large leather suitcase from under the bed, placed it on the table, and opened it. Instantly, an entire set of brand-new equipment was revealed.

"Listening devices, mini-cams, signal trackers, laptop, I’ve got it all for you."

Ling Chen checked everything and gave a thumbs-up, "You have wide connections. Keep these expenses on my tab for now, I’ll pay you back when I have money."

"I’m not counting on you being able to pay me now. Just remember to pay me back with interest next time." After speaking, Hu Fei seemed to remember something and took out a USB drive from his pocket, "Here’s the information you wanted."

"Thanks!"

"No need to be polite, everything is chargeable. Call me anytime you need something else, I’ll get it sorted out for you."

"Sure, will contact you later."

During the conversation, Hu Fei’s phone started to ring suddenly. He took it out, glanced at the caller ID, and his expression changed instantly. Noticing his expression, Ling Chen put down what he was working on and stepped forward, "What’s up?"

Hu Fei gestured for him to stay quiet, then answered the call.

He didn’t say a word the whole time, just listened intently. Two minutes later, he hung up, his round face looking a bit unpleasant, his small eyes slightly squinting as if contemplating something.

"Whose call was it?"

"Secret Society."

"Secret Society?" Ling Chen was taken aback, "What do they want from you?"

Hu Fei said with a bitter smile, "They want me to cooperate with Secret Society’s investigation. Snake King thinks I betrayed him and broke the rules of the trade, so he complained about me to the Secret Society. As you know, the Secret Society won’t tolerate any troublemaker. Anyone who breaks the rules can’t escape their punishment."

"So, what’s your plan?"

"What else can I do but cooperate with them as best as I can." Hu Fei seemed resigned, "The Secret Society, if they want to investigate you, you can’t hide even at the ends of the earth. Besides, I didn’t break any rules. When I shared Snake King’s info with you, it was an exchange for intelligence; I didn’t reveal his whereabouts voluntarily. As long as the Secret Society is reasonable, they shouldn’t punish me."

Ling Chen nodded and cautioned, "Take care of yourself. If the Secret Society means harm to you, remember to notify me. You’ve helped me a lot, I won’t sit idly by."

"Understood." After saying this, Hu Fei hesitated briefly, then took off his electronic watch from his wrist, "Take this, make sure to wear it at all times."

"What’s this gizmo good for?"

"Figure it out on your own, the instructions are on it. I have other matters to attend to, I need to leave."

After seeing off Hu Fei, Ling Chen closed the door, sat in the living room, took out all the equipment from the suitcase, and started testing each one. He then opened the laptop, plugged in the USB drive, and opened a folder. Inside the folder, there were over a dozen pictures, all of architectural blueprints.

After studying for a while, Ling Chen rubbed his temples and lay down on the sofa, lifting the hem of his shirt to check the bandaged wound. After several days of recovery, the wound was healing, new flesh had grown, but his current physical condition still wouldn’t allow for strenuous activity.

His goal for returning to East Sea City was clear: to destroy all the God Organization’s strongholds in Huaxia. According to Liu Xiyao, the God Organization had over twenty secret bases in the country, and the one they had destroyed last time was just one of them.

Moreover, he received important information that the person in charge of operating these secret bases was none other than Zhu Hong. Based on this intelligence, he planned to start from Zhu Hong, follow the trail and destroy all the secret bases, weakening God Organization’s influence in the country.

This plan had received the approval of General. From now on, he would hide in the shadows, act secretly, and try to collect more intelligence about the God Organization.

After finishing the preparations, it was already evening, and Ling Chen left the complex alone, taking a taxi to Qingyun Martial Arts Hall.

Currently, the only people in East Sea City who knew he was still alive were Hu Fei and He Ziyun. He came to see He Ziyun this time to retrieve some belongings, and also to seek his counsel on another matter.

Knock, knock, knock!

After a sequence of knocks, the door of Qingyun Martial Arts Hall was opened, and Little Hua peeked out from inside, her big eyes gazing at Ling Chen, and her round little face immediately filled with a smile.

"Big Brother!"

She called out affectionately, throwing her arms open and hugging his arm.

"Little girl," Ling Chen said with a smile as he petted her head, "Is Mr. He around?"

"Master’s inside."

"Let’s go, I have something to consult with Mr. He."

"Big Brother." Little Hua quickly grabbed his hand, "Wait before going in, you haven’t told me yet."

Ling Chen is full of doubt: "Told you what?"

Puffing her lips, Little Hua said, "You haven’t told me how your date with Xiaozhu went last time. I asked Xiaozhu, but she wouldn’t reveal anything. Big Brother, I kindly helped to set you two up, you’ve got to let me know the outcome."
