Chapter 883: Chapter 872 Think Carefully
Song Yun reached out and grabbed Elder Zhu’s hand, then exerted some force to stand up directly. Subsequently, he looked at Elder Zhu with respect and said, “Elder Zhu’s skills are truly superb, young me is willing to admit defeat.”
“Haha, I’ve lived for so many years, playing tricks every day, naturally I’m a bit better than you. But, your future is also limitless!” Elder Zhu said, “Moreover, you’re different from the people in Group One and Two, you’re smarter than they are.”
Song Yun hurriedly said he dared not accept the compliment.
“That’s what your Second Grandpa, or Mr. Song, told me,” Elder Zhu said.
“My Second Grandpa?”
“Yes, that day I was competing for you with people from the other two groups. Mr. Song actually called me long before, he said you were the most suitable to stay in Group Three. But now, all three group leaders are competing for you, he couldn’t directly give an order on who to hand you to, so he let me personally visit him!” Elder Zhu laughed and said, “Doing it this way gives Mr. Song enough face, and I also lowered myself considerably. Then, you naturally joined my Group Three.”
Song Yun didn’t expect such a story behind his entry into the Special Action Department, and then asked, “Then why did my Second Grandpa also want me to join your group, Elder Zhu?”
“Isn’t it just to let you learn some cerebral stuff from me?” Elder Zhu said, “Your hand skills have reached a certain level. Now, you need to use your brain! Sometimes, you can’t win over many people just with brute force, without using your brain. Just like earlier, I didn’t even use my sixth sense, I could analyze all your subsequent moves first. I can say, from the moment I grabbed you, till you fell, it was all within my calculation.”
Upon hearing this, Song Yun was even more shocked. From the first move, calculating all my subsequent actions? How is that possible!
“It’s indeed possible!” Elder Zhu said, “Actually, each of your moves was completed under the deliberate guidance of my actions. Perhaps you didn’t notice, when I first grabbed you, pulling you towards me with the aim to lead your force in the opposite direction. And when you exert force in the reverse direction, I could just go with the flow and combine your force with mine. Originally, your strength, I estimated you could use perfectly, but with my force added, the force underwent uncontrollable changes, just as I expected.”
“You lost full control over that force, so when I exerted force aside, your body became uncontrollable. Initially, my foot was prepared to handle this uncontrollable phenomenon at the end. Once your body became uncontrollable, I could support your lower body. The upper body was uncontrollable, the lower body was supported by me, leaving you no choice but to fall. And anyone about to fall would reflexively grab something, and I knew you would grab me, so my other foot was ready. The moment you exerted force, I was already steady on my feet!”
Listening to Elder Zhu’s explanation, recalling all his prior moves, Song Yun realized, it was indeed just as Elder Zhu said, each of his actions was designed by Elder Zhu! That is to say, Elder Zhu making one move could control all my subsequent moves. This… such analytical and parsing ability, one could definitely say is demonic!
“Alright, it’s your first day here today, I don’t have much to teach you. Why don’t you go outside with Fatty and get to know everyone? That’s also a way to communicate feelings. You can be considered the only valuable asset of our Group Three now. The others, their hand skills are quite poor. Although they understand the tricks, nobody nowadays would foolishly play tricks with you,” Elder Zhu said.
“Alright! Thank you, Elder Zhu!” Song Yun nodded, thanked him, then turned and left the backyard with Fatty.
“Song Yun, isn’t our boss amazing?” Fatty asked with a smile.
“Indeed amazing!” Song Yun said, “If playing tricks, I can’t beat him. But in close combat, Elder Zhu probably isn’t my opponent.”
“You got it wrong there!” Fatty smiled mysteriously, “Do you really think the boss is only good at tricks?”
“Oh?” Song Yun curiously looked at Fatty.
“Our boss is known as the smartest and toughest among the three group leaders. Even the Group One leader must be respectful in front of him. If not for having subordinates who can fight, he’d only be there to shine the boss’s shoes!” Fatty said proudly.
“How do you know?” Song Yun asked.
“During the chaos years, I was just an intern. I saw the boss make a move back then. His move was earth-shattering, directly knocking the Group One leader flat!” Fatty said.
“During the major chaos? What move did Elder Zhu make? Didn’t they say the Four Families joined forces at that time?” Song Yun asked.
“That’s classified information!” Fatty looked around, made sure nobody was near, and said, “Back then, the Four Families were actually joined with Group One’s leader. The boss couldn’t stand it anymore, since those inside the Palace shouldn’t interfere with domestic affairs. As a result, the Group One leader talked nonsense with the boss, and then they fought, and were knocked out, leaving only his subordinates.”
Song Yun didn’t expect such a subplot from ten years ago, then felt stirred in his heart. The fact that Group One’s leader joined forces with the Four Families, does it mean that Group One can now be categorized on the side of the Four Families? But Ghost King is from Group Two, many incidents are related to him. Last time, when I went to kill Wang Billion, Ghost King was also guarding Wang Billion, who is a member of the Zhou Family. Is there a connection between them? Or maybe members of Group Two are also with the Four Families? Then why does Tang Lin from Group Two treat me so well?
Song Yun felt the entire National Security Bureau Special Action Department, suddenly seemed quite mysterious.
Song Yun thought while casually chatting with Fatty, soon, they passed the intersection then walked through the corridor to enter the hall.
Upon arriving at the hall, Song Yun heard a cacophony of noise and saw there were about ten people inside. Among them, two stood face to face, seemingly about to fight, while others were watching, including Tang Lin.
Seeing Song Yun come in, Tang Lin waved at Song Yun. Song Yun then walked over.
