Chapter 666: Chapter 479 Liu Zheng: You really kill with filial piety

"What’s up?"

The voice of 4399 came from the other end of the phone.

Whether considering the order of acquaintance or the depth of the relationship, Liu Zheng should think about 8848 and 4399.

Moreover, he’s about to leave the country, so establishing a good relationship with employees of the Border Control Bureau is clearly the priority.

"Here’s the thing, I’ve got some corpses of Round God Sect followers, and I just wanted to ask if you need them, big brother 4399."

Liu Zheng said.

"I need them. Where are you?"

immediately asked.

"I’m on Rose Street, near the talking French Plane Tree."

He replied.

"How many are there?"

further inquired.

"Nine corpses."

"Alright, I’ll be there soon."

hung up the phone.

Liu Zheng waited where he was, and ten minutes later, a small truck arrived in front of him.

"Hey, haven’t seen you in a few days, and you’re looking more human!"

jumped out of the truck, teasing with a playful smile.

"Thanks to both of you brothers for the guidance."

Liu Zheng replied with a grin.

"Haha, you little brat, are you complimenting us or mocking us?"

laughed, pointing at him.

"Of course I’m complimenting you. Good morning, big brother 4399."

As he spoke, 4399 also got out of the truck.

"Hmm. Are these the corpses of those Round God Sect followers?"

asked, looking at the fishing net by his feet.

"That’s right."

Liu Zheng nodded.

"Where did you get them?"

"I found them in the sewer."

He replied.

"You didn’t do it yourself, right?"

"Both of you brothers know me, I don’t have that kind of skill."

Liu Zheng laughed.

"Hmm."

nodded and didn’t ask further.

"This wound, why does it seem familiar to me?"

noticed something suspicious.

Liu Zheng’s heart tightened, but he kept a calm expression.

"Oh, I’ve remembered. You brat, this batch is quite a hot potato."

said with a mysterious smile.

"Hot potato for others, sure, but definitely not for us."

He said, chuckling.

"Us? What, have you decided to join us?"

asked.

"My heart is with humanity, both inside and outside are one. Besides, I believe given my circumstances, staying at the restaurant brings more value to us."

"Hmm, that’s true. You’re too capable of causing trouble, really letting you join City Hall would waste your talent; not controlling you could lead to a big, no, great mess."

acknowledged his reasoning.

"So, about these corpses, what do you say?"

"I’ll take them, but the credit has to be discounted, because shutting those non-human mouths takes effort."

replied.

"Understood. Big brother 8848, big brother 4399, I have an impolite request, not sure if I should bring it up."

Liu Zheng said, pretending to be in a difficult position.

"You’re one of us already, what’s there you shouldn’t bring up? If you say something wrong, we’ll at most beat you up, but we wouldn’t kill you, right?"

joked, half-seriously.

"Besides, with your skills, we might not even be able to kill you."

He scanned Liu Zheng up and down, and it’s uncertain what he saw.

"Then I’ll say it. Can we split the credit with Silver Wolf and the Security Department’s trump card?"

Liu Zheng said.

"I know Silver Wolf, but from the City Supervision Department, he’s your sweetheart’s brother-in-law. Who’s the trump card of the Security Department?"

asked, puzzled.

"Conan Holmes. Deputy leader of the Heavy Case Team at the Criminal Investigation Bureau, the top detective of the Security Department. Including the Peanut, probably the top expert of the Security Department."

replied with a blank face.

"Peanut?"

"The companion species of the Holmes family; every Holmes has their own Peanut. They live separately usually, but act together when needed, significantly boosting their strength."

explained.

"Doesn’t that give enemies a chance to exploit it?"

Liu Zheng asked, puzzled.

"Not sure. We suspect it might be part of the ritual, the real situation is known only to the Holmes themselves."

shook his head.

"Alright, but the trump card I’m talking about is not that kind; that person’s name is Trump Card."

He clarified.

"Never heard of him. What’s your relationship with him?"

asked.

"He’s a friend of my friend, I’ve asked him for help a couple of times."

Liu Zheng replied.

"I’ll ask."

walked aside to make a phone call and returned shortly after.

"Got it, he’s from the logistics department, and he’s a Hobbit."

He said.

Hobbits, also called Half-Elves, have an average height of only 0.8 to 1.2 meters, but they are not dwarfs or dwarves.

Some scholars believe they are actually a human branch, while Hobbits consider themselves a separate race.

In any case, the blood relationship between Hobbits and humans is very close, without reproductive isolation, and the traits of offspring are quite stable.

"The organization is quite pleased with such a large return from the initial investment in you. Your request has been approved, if you have other requests, bring them up as well."

said.

"Okay. I’m going to leave the country soon; you brothers should know, right?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"Guessed it. Your restaurant’s habit is to use things to the maximum as long as they work."

said in a mocking tone.

"It’s the same everywhere, not just the restaurant. What guidance do you brothers have for me regarding this matter?"

"This matter, we need to report back, and we’ll contact you when there’s a result."

and 4399 exchanged looks and then said.

"Alright. Then I’ll be waiting for your good news."

He cupped his hands in a gesture.

"Don’t wait just yet, come give us a hand and move the corpses up."

patted him on the shoulder.

"That tree has become stronger."

suddenly remarked.

Following his gaze, Liu Zheng looked over to see the French Plane Tree quietly standing there, with the Ginseng Sprite hiding away.
