Chapter 147: Chapter 132: The Shadow of the Noah Organization_3
Wang Zongwu spoke freely, doing his best to elevate his own status through his words.
But Fang Cheng’s face remained unreadable, which led Wang Zongwu to think for a moment before asking another question:
"Brother, judging from your accent, you must be a local. Do you know Chen Chen?"
Upon hearing this, Fang Cheng was taken aback, his eyes flashing momentarily.
The name Chen Chen—how could he possibly not know it?
After the bloodshed that night at the warehouse, the two sides had become outright enemies.
To be ready for action at any moment, Fang Cheng had already made a point of getting informed about all the key Red Tiger Gang leaders.
And Chen Chen was the Gang Leader of the Red Tiger Gang.
Seeing a change in Fang Cheng’s expression, Wang Zongwu felt slightly relieved and then continued:
"Chen Chen hailed from your Yong’an Island. After joining the Noah Organization, he received support from the higher-ups and has now become the leader of the largest society in East Capital."
"The two of us brothers have always had a good relationship with him. When we go to East Capital, we often look him up for a drink..."
Hearing the man opposite using the Red Tiger Gang Leader to cozy up to him, Fang Cheng found himself at a loss for words for a moment.
The reason he had mimicked a Yong’an Island local accent was only to add an extra layer of cover for his real identity.
However, Fang Cheng did not expose this, and merely responded indifferently:
"I know Chen Chen. Haven’t seen him for many years though."
Hearing this, Wang Zongwu knew he had made a good bet, and immediately followed up:
"Since we all know each other, there’s no need to continue fighting and escalate things. That would just harm the good atmosphere."
"Brother, I believe you could totally join our organization. With your strength, you will surely be highly valued and enjoy better benefits and treatment than us brothers..."
He went on and on about the specific benefits of joining the Noah Organization, trying his best to tempt him.
Especially a certain type of medication that was very important for those with abilities, even capable of alleviating chronic spiritual afflictions.
Fang Cheng gave no comment and then asked:
"What sort of level would someone with my strength be considered at in your organization?"
Wang Zongwu thought for a bit and then seriously replied:
"Hunter teams aside, our organization has many research and administrative staff, but if you were to be placed in the Hunter squads, you’d probably be at the level of a deputy leader of a medium-sized team. Above that, there are larger teams and even higher-ranking mysterious experts whose circumstances we are actually not that familiar with..."
After listening to Wang Zongwu’s briefing, Fang Cheng said with satisfaction:
"It seems you haven’t lied to me."
He then went over to the bound Wang Zongwen, removed the cloth from his mouth, and asked:
"Can you still move your hands?"
Wang Zongwen glanced at his brother, who was signaling with his eyes, and then nodded quietly.
Seeing this, Fang Cheng tore off the ropes binding his hands and feet and ordered:
"Then, start the boat and head back now."
Hearing this, Wang Zongwu’s face lit up with happiness:
"Brother, I’m glad you’ve thought it through. Let me take you to our stronghold first to meet the person in charge here. Later on, I can serve as your referrer for joining the organization..."
Wang Zongwen, enduring the pain, obediently walked to the control panel.
He then started the motor single-handedly, turned the rudder, and steered the fishing boat away from the area.
However, as he looked ahead at the sea, a hint of maliciousness flickered in his gaze, and he silently clenched his teeth:
"This kid is so naïve. Once we’re back at the stronghold, you’ll get what’s coming to you..."
Thud, thud, thud —————
Accompanied by the sound of the motor, the fishing boat trailed a long wake across the pitch-black sea.
Ten minutes later, it smoothly entered the harbor and was about to dock.
Wang Zongwu felt the numbness in his limbs slightly subside, and his heart settled further.
He looked up at Fang Cheng, who was standing at the control panel, and tried to cozy up once more:
"Brother, I haven’t had the pleasure of learning your esteemed name yet..."
Before he could finish speaking, his eyes widened in terror.
It was quiet and tranquil at the marina in the early morning.
Many fishing boats were lined up in a row, rocking gently with the waves as they rested.
Inside the cabin of a boat that had just docked, there was a faint flicker of electricity.
Two short screams rang out, then abruptly ceased.
All was once again peaceful and serene.
