CHAPTER 172: CHAPTER 85: ENCOUNTERING ACQUAINTANCES_4
"Zheng Zai, keep up this style, I’m starting to look forward to your future growth. But this style of yours is really not suited for teaching... When I see the principal later, I’ll arrange a different position for you."
"Ah! Bro, it’s really you who’s stepping up!" Zheng Zai evidently ignored the main point.
Wen Xishu rubbed his forehead, thinking that Zheng Zai really had some screws loose.
The two of them chatted as they walked, but suddenly stopped in their tracks. Wen Xishu hadn’t expected to... meet a second familiar face here.
Xie Changfeng.
The very person from the Bunker Security Bureau who had interrogated Wen Xishu. He had subjected Wen Xishu to inhumane torture, but ultimately couldn’t get a word out of him.
The pace was led by Wen Xishu, who dragged it out until Albert arrived.
It could be said that the Security Bureau had the chance when it came to extracting Wen Xishu’s secrets.
But Xie Changfeng missed that chance.
"You! You! It’s you! It’s you!" Xie Changfeng pointed at Wen Xishu in fury.
Wen Xishu made a gesture as if cleaning his ear:
"How come you’re stuttering after just a few days apart? By the way, how did you end up mixed up in the Deceit Tower? Oh, getting more ambitious now?"
Xie Changfeng’s expression shifted several times, before he finally said viciously:
"Wen Xishu! You evil Wen Family brat, it’s all your fault I ended up like this!"
Wen Xishu replied:
"I gave you a chance, let Liu Jinsen interrogate me, but you wouldn’t listen!"
The mention of Liu Jinsen obviously hit Xie Changfeng’s sore spot. He shouted angrily:
"Don’t be so smug; you Wen Family scum, I know your true identity. Do you believe I won’t reveal who you are right now?"
Wen Xishu nodded:
"Go ahead, do you think the people around will believe you?"
Xie Changfeng paused, but immediately retorted angrily:
"I can make everyone in the Bunker know your true identity! I can make everyone in the Three Towers Academy know who you are!"
Wen Xishu laughed:
"Sure, you can talk tough here, but the premise of that toughness is that you make it back alive."
"You’re now in the sixth-level area; you must be pretty confident about surviving, right?"
Xie Changfeng’s body trembled with fear. He couldn’t even decipher the mission description, let alone complete it.
Wen Xishu was not worried about Xie Changfeng surviving to spill his identity.
The Security Bureau hadn’t done so, indicating that nobody dared to offend Albert.
Xie Changfeng remembered that Wen Xishu was something of a legend in exploring the Deceit Tower, perhaps due to knowing some secret about Wen Chaohua.
He quickly said:
"You... you help me, or I’ll reveal your identity! You’ve explored the Deceit Tower so many times! You have to help me! My current situation is all your fault."
Wen Xishu was very pleased with this change in Xie Changfeng’s attitude:
"Alright, I’ll help you. I’ve explored the sixth level too. Maybe the mission you’re on is one I’ve been on?"
Xie Changfeng clung to this lifeline:
"The mission is called... called The Parrot Cage game. In Jiangcheng, you have to find the contaminated items!"
Xie Changfeng looked at Wen Xishu, then glanced at Zheng Zai standing beside him.
Wen Xishu and Zheng Zai exchanged glances, both somewhat astonished. Today’s coincidences were just piling up.
Wen Xishu realized that the mission name "The Wail of the Parrot" had changed to "The Parrot Cage game."
This perhaps meant that the mission kept the same format and process, but Tang Rui had moved past her old wounds.
And this mission was doomed to never reach a level six completion by anyone.
"You! Your expressions, you’ve really been there! You’ve really been there! That’s great, you’ve really been there!"
Wen Xishu laughed:
"Indeed, my buddy here and I have both been there. There are three items in total; purify one of them and you can leave. I just so happen to have intel on all three fully purified items."
"But you—you beat me up. Why should I help you?"
