Chapter 516: Chapter 516: Watch Your Words Around a Ruffian

"The cave has been captured by the Japanese!"

Lin Fan’s eyebrows tightened.

The timeline of the plan grew nearer.

All movements of the grass and trees were highly suspicious.

"It can be said that fortunately, the enemy is not particularly familiar with the terrain of the cave, so the majority of the villagers have been evacuated and entered into the secret tunnels, but still, a small part were captured by them as hostages. So, it is odd to me how those guys could be more familiar with the cave than even myself."

The words of Zhao Jiaqi suddenly reminded Lin Fan of something Ni Chang had once mentioned.

Back then, there was a Dongying samurai who almost destroyed the previous Holy Maiden.

Could there be some connection?

"Did you figure out what their objective is?"

"I don’t know about that...I was just helping to rescue the villagers, and in the middle of it, I was injured by a strange fat woman. Speaking of which, it really is odd, those strong men around her seemed immune to knives and spears—my talismans were unable to harm them."

Zhao Jiaqi shook her head.

Thinking back to that bizarre battle, she still hadn’t understood everything.

"Strange fat woman...Were there eight strong men around her?"

Lin Fan suddenly became vigilant and asked urgently.

"Yes, eight tall black men, robust in build. Do you know them?"

Zhao Jiaqi quickly nodded in confirmation.

"I didn’t expect her to be alive!"

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes.

He thought of Beitiao Qian Naizi, the Puppet Master from Evil Island.

Unexpectedly, she had survived.

"What woman?"

Zhao Jiaqi obviously didn’t know what Lin Fan had encountered.

"It’s the woman we encountered when Ning Mengyao was pretending to be the descendant of the Banshan Taoist!"

Lin Fan frowned.

Previously at Evil Island, and now the cave.

Where this woman appeared seemed to have no connection with the plan.

But it always struck him as a bit strange.

"So she was impersonating me!"

After listening to Lin Fan’s rough explanation, Zhao Jiaqi finally understood.

"So why do you think she was impersonating you?"

Lin Fan’s words immediately caused Zhao Jiaqi’s face to turn red.

"I wouldn’t know what twisted ideas you, a pervert, might have."

"Hey, I’d advise you to be careful with your words. After all, you’re sitting on this pervert’s bed right now. Think carefully before you speak."

Lin Fan grabbed Zhao Jiaqi’s shoulders.

He looked at her slightly pale face with a wicked smile.

The Beijing girl’s features were quite generous.

Plus, that bit of morbidity really made her pretty.

"You...don’t mess around...I was wrong, I won’t dare again!"

Zhao Jiaqi urgently pled in a loud voice.

Facing this guy, she had no chance to resist.

Her usually resolute character became utterly meaningless.

"Seeing how obedient you are, I’ll help you out then."

Lin Fan said with a wicked smile, slipping his hand into Zhao Jiaqi’s clothing.

With a few taps of his fingers on her chest.

The feeling of breathlessness was instantly alleviated quite a bit.

"Have you touched enough yet?"

Zhao Jiaqi’s face turned red.

Though he was helping cure her illness.

But his devilish hand took quite a bit of advantage.

"Hey, I’m helping you with your illness, and I’m not even charging you. You could show a little gratitude."

Lin Fan said smilingly as he withdrew his arm.

It wasn’t his first time, and he had become quite experienced.

"Next time, I might as well pay."

Zhao Jiaqi was arranging her clothes with a grievance.

She couldn’t even distinguish what exactly their relationship was with this guy anymore.

He had taken all the advantages he could.

But most importantly, she seemed not to dislike this unusual physical contact all that much.

Yet deep inside, she still quite rejected this Sea King.

So, this relationship was neither close nor distant.

"No need to pay, if you help me with something, we’ll call it even for this consultation," he said.

Lin Fan smiled, took his clothes, and began to dress under the covers.

"Another task? We just touched, and now there’s still a charge, aren’t you being too greedy?"

Zhao Jiaqi’s face fell.

Did the touching just now count for nothing?

"I could ask for more. Would you give it then?"

Lin Fan stopped dressing, a mischievous smile on his face as he looked at Zhao Jiaqi.

"I’ll do it!"

Zhao Jiaqi hurriedly flipped over and jumped off the bed.

The farther from this danger zone, the safer.

"Seal off the industrial park project of Ning Bingcai," he said.

Lin Fan’s words also startled Zhao Jiaqi.

"Seal it up? But the higher-ups asked us not to act for now, and the schedule is already so tight. If we seal it up, I’m afraid it will drive them to desperate measures."

Zhao Jiaqi looked puzzled at Lin Fan.

"If we don’t seal it now, troubles are obviously already happening. It’s better to be harsh now. Otherwise, being under the surveillance of Longya and having everything go so smoothly, that would make them suspicious. Just go and handle it confidently, leave the rest to me, there’ll be no problems. Just leave them a crack of a door," he reassured her.

Lin Fan threw off the covers and got out of bed.

He couldn’t ignore the matters of Tianku.

After all, the book recording the weaknesses of Drought demoness was still something he sought.

But he also had to give Ning Mengyao a piece of his mind.

"Fine, then I’ll report back to my superior. Whether we seal it or not is still up to him, but I’ll pass on your message to my grandfather," Zhao Jiaqi said.

She suddenly realized she’d said something wrong.

Hastily, she fell silent.

"Although your injury is temporarily alright, you shouldn’t engage in strenuous activities for now. Go handle this, and I’ll arrange other matters. Meet back at Medicine King House in three hours, and then just take me to the entrance of Tianku," he ordered.

Lin Fan bent over and pulled a dagger out from under the bed.

This trip to Tianku was bound to involve a fight.

And last time, a blood sword was also left there.

There might be a use for these yet.

"All right, then I’m off," Zhao Jiaqi nodded, then immediately pushed the door and left.

It was only at this moment that she truly escaped from danger.

Thinking back to just now, when he had held her in his arms and ran his hands all over her.

Zhao Jiaqi’s cheeks flushed with embarrassment.

As for Lin Fan, he quickly freshened up.

Then he picked up the phone.

He found a number at random and pressed the call button.

Soon, a somewhat sharp voice came from the other end of the line.

"I really didn’t expect you to call me proactively," said the person on the line, who was Hino Hiroshi.

He was sitting on the couch, squinting at the crystal ball placed in front of him.

"I didn’t expect you’d pick up my call either," Lin Fan replied with a faint smile. "But don’t be happy or flattered, because the reason I’m calling is you’re about to run into trouble, so I wanted to discuss some extortion with you."

"Oh? What trouble might that be?"

Such an inexplicable statement made Hino Hiroshi pause.

He had never considered such an option in his mind.

"You’ll know what trouble soon enough. Of course, if you want to solve it, you’ll need to pay a hefty price. So you’d better start raising funds now. I’ll wait for your call!"

Lin Fan didn’t give the other party a chance to ask further questions and cut off the call.

Now, it was Ning Bingcai’s turn to suffer.
