Chapter 283: Chapter 0283: Not a Small Name

If she had the people from her company bail her out, her situation would become known to her colleagues, affecting her work during the day. Furthermore, other than having her boss step up, no one else really held any clout.

However, if the company sent no one, she had no choice but to seek help from the Poison Widow Organization. Given Lin Xue’s current suspicions of her, contacting the Poison Widow Organization would undoubtedly blow her cover and might even bring trouble to the organization.

After long deliberation, Shen Yan suddenly had an idea—Chen Cang! It seemed that the Chen Family wielded significant influence in Songlan City, so having him get her out shouldn’t be a problem.

Originally, Chen Cang had planned to intensify his pursuit of Liu Mengting in Tang Ming’s absence, but before he could initiate the operation, he received a call from Shen Yan.

Upon hearing that he needed to fish someone out of the police station, Chen Cang’s first reaction was reluctance. But then he thought of Shen Yan, a murderous assassin who didn’t blink at killing, and he had no choice but to reluctantly ask his teacher for leave and rush to the police station.

Facing Lin Canghai’s incessant fervent invitations, Tang Ming directly used Old Master Tang as his shield.

Well aware of Old Master Tang’s fearsome reputation, Lin Canghai immediately dropped the topic and simply chatted with Tang Ming for a while before ending their meeting.

Exiting the office, Tang Ming hummed a tune, wandering aimlessly through the police station, intending to continue chatting with the pretty policewoman he had a good conversation with earlier. Unable to find Tan Ruoxi, he instead saw Chen Cang hastily entering from outside.

"Goddamn nuisance, what are you doing here instead of being in class?"

Tang Ming asked Chen Cang with curiosity.

"Brother Ming, you’re here too! I just got a call from that female assassin. She said she hit someone and got caught by the police, asking me to come over and bail her out."

Chen Cang approached Tang Ming and softly explained the situation, his face expressing disbelief, "I don’t know who the unlucky bastard is that she hit, but now she’s landed herself in the police station, literally asking for trouble. That woman wouldn’t blink before killing someone, it’s possible she might even finish off that unlucky sucker if she gets vicious."

Tang Ming’s face turned odd, staring at Chen Cang, and pointing to his own nose, he said, "That unlucky bastard you’re talking about is me, she tried to run me over with her car!"

"What?"

Chen Cang gasped in surprise, explaining, "I didn’t know you were the victim. Are you hurt?"

"No harm done, but indeed I’m quite unlucky."

Tang Ming casually shook his head, feeling gloomy as he thought, "All the food I ate has digested, and now I’m hungry again!"

"So what should I do now? Should I help her with the bail procedures or find someone to lock her up for a few years?"

Chen Cang asked uncertainly.

"Of course, get her out. I’m still counting on her to frequently supply me with poison. If she really gets arrested and sentenced for a few years, wouldn’t I lose a source of poison?"

Tang Ming said grinningly.

"But that woman wants to kill you, ah. She might run you over with a car this time; who knows what she’ll think of doing next!"

Chen Cang reminded him worriedly.

"Don’t worry, her little tricks are useless against me. Go help her with her bail, and afterward, try to get some poison from her for me."

Tang Ming nonchalantly waved his hand and then strode toward the outside of the police station, yelling without looking back, "I need to get back to class, handle it yourself!"

For such a desperado, even if Chen Cang doesn’t protect her, she’d think about breaking out of jail herself, so it’s better to let Chen Cang continue as an undercover.

"Okay, I know what to do now."

Chen Cang acknowledged with a clear understanding and puffed up his chest to go and handle Shen Yan’s bail procedures.

After leaving the police station, Tang Ming didn’t head to school but returned to the supermarket where he had eaten earlier, launching another frenzied sweep of the food there.

Since the last time Tang Ming had eaten and drunk lavishly but had honestly paid for all the items, this time the security didn’t watch him like they would a thief, but they still kept an eye on him, mainly because Tang Ming could eat so much that if he ever left without paying, all the security staff’s bonuses for the month would probably be wiped out!

After Tang Ming left the police station, Lin Canghai’s expression became grave for two reasons. First, he confidently thought that reaching an eight-star martial artist would enable him to overpower Tang Ming, but instead, Tang Ming had crushed him again, showing that Tang Ming’s cultivation speed was far superior. Such a prodigy, once recruited to the Dark Group, would indeed be a major achievement.

On the other hand, he was conflicted about Tang Ming’s real purpose for returning to Songlan City. Could it merely be to become a son-in-law to the Liu family?

If that were the case, it would be fine, but otherwise, if he ever posed a threat to national security, Lin Canghai would inevitably find himself opposing Tang Ming. Facing such a demonic-like adversary, Lin Canghai already felt a headache coming on, and even more troubling issues lay ahead.

"Let’s talk about the future later. For now, let’s handle the current matters."

Lin Canghai took out his phone and dialed an encrypted number, briefly updating the person on the other end about Hao Jian.

Soon, data came from the other side confirming Hao Jian’s identity, but...

Seeing the system Hao Jian belonged to and the leader he was responsible for, Lin Canghai’s eyebrows nearly twisted into a knot. It turned out that the arrogant and insolent Hao Jian, who had violated the internal rules of the Dark Group, came from a "not so small" background.

Hao Jian’s family had some influence, but Lin Canghai still didn’t consider it significant. Lin Canghai had intended to find out who Hao Jian’s leader was and why such a disgrace was allowed into the Dark Group?

But upon clarifying the identity of Hao Jian’s leader, Lin Canghai immediately felt a headache coming on, for it was an existence within the Dark Group that no one wanted to provoke.

"Ah, why is it her? No wonder Hao Jian, just a mere peripheral member, is so overbearing; it turns out she’s backing him. A crooked beam supports a crooked house, and now this is going to be troublesome!"

Lin Chenghai helplessly looked at the data in his hand.

Some people may not possess great power, but can still be a headache, like Lin Xue. In terms of strength, ten of her couldn’t compare to Tang Ming, yet she could still cause Tang Ming to feel troubled. Hao Jian’s leader was such a presence.

Not long after Lin Canghai received the data, an army-green SUV pulled up at the entrance of the police station, and a tall, beautiful woman wearing a black leather outfit stepped out of the vehicle.

This woman had a pretty face and a cold demeanor, icy but carrying a sizzling figure, not only curvy but also her most eye-catching feature was her meter-long legs, drawing considerable attention.

The long-legged beauty walked into the police station, pulled out a badge, and then inquired about Hao Jian.

Originally, some officers wanted to approach to stop her, but upon seeing the badge in the woman’s hand, they immediately cleared the way, rushing to notify Chief Liu and Lin Canghai, who hadn’t left yet.
