665 The Terrifying List
The air was terrifyingly quiet. Hu Wu could vaguely sense that he was in a hotel.
The rain seemed to have gotten heavier again, pattering against the window, and one could even hear the whistling of the wind.
The bed under his butt was soft and skin-friendly. It must be the round waterbed in room 605.
“I have a question. After you knocked me unconscious, how did you get me into the room?” Hu Wu shrugged and asked.
Lu Benwei’s voice turned cold. “Answer me honestly. Have you become a believer in the God Welcoming Association?”
“I say, brother, you’ve really wronged me.”
Hu Wu wanted to raise his hands, but unfortunately, he was bound and could not move. Even if he showed the slightest chance of breaking free, he would be knocked unconscious by Chu Yan. Suddenly, he felt that something was wrong and was extremely depressed.
“Brother, did you kidnap me with the hotel’s tools?”
“Stop interrupting and answer me!” Lu Benwei’s voice turned cold as he said sternly.
“Alright, alright, I’ll answer. You said that I’m a believer of the God Welcoming Association. Let me tell you, that’s impossible!” Hu Wu said.
“How?” Chu Yan held the brick and asked coldly.
“How do I prove it?” Hu Wu shrugged. “Just call the Paranormal Report Center and tell them that I’m here. I think it won’t be long before my former subordinates fly armed helicopters and blast this place into a pile of mud with RPGs.”
“What do you mean?” Lu Benwei frowned.
“What else can I say? I was framed,” Hu Wu casually replied, causing Lu Benwei and Chu Yan to look at each other.
“Now, I’ve become the number one target of the Law Enforcement Bureau.”
Chu Yan was suspicious at first. “Then why did you appear in the downtown area so blatantly? Why did you help us forge our documents and talk to the police?”
Hu Wu raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, “No matter what, I’m still a night watcher. I’ve worked my way up from the bottom, so I know the Law Enforcement Bureau too well. And I have a list of names, so they won’t dare to act rashly.”
“Are you referring to the Law Enforcement Bureau?” Lu Benwei was shocked.
“Of course not.” Hu Wu smiled mysteriously.
Lu Benwei was surprised again and asked, “Where’s the name list?”
“You want to know? Let me go first.”
Immediately after, Lu Benwei also became vigilant. “Why should we believe you?”
The room fell into silence again, so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.
After a long time, Hu Wu heaved a sigh of relief.
“How about this? I’ll tell you someone, and you might understand. Do you know Gan Yan? He’s also in Qingling City! He’s the director of the Law Enforcement Bureau of Green Spirit City,” Hu Wu said calmly.
“Gan Yan, it’s him?” Lu Benwei’s pupils constricted.
He recalled the thin and bashful Gan Yan. Although Lu Benwei had expected that his identity was not simple, when he found out that he was now the director of the Law Enforcement Bureau, he could not help but be shocked.
“He’s one of the officers of the God Welcoming Association?”
“That’s right! Two months ago, when Gan Yan landed in the Law Enforcement Bureau, I became suspicious and started a secret investigation.” Hu Wu heaved a sigh of relief.
“A believer of the Welcoming Church in the government of Hai Province!” Lu Benwei said his guess in shock.
“Correct!” Hu Wu raised his eyebrows excitedly.
“Get lost! Who’s on the list?” Lu Benwei cursed.
“I can’t reveal this. In short, there are too many people. We might need to do a big purge!” Hu Wu raised his eyebrows.
Lu Benwei and Chu Yan broke out in a cold sweat.
If it was as Hu Wu said, and Hai Province was riddled with holes by the God Welcoming Association, the consequences would be unimaginable. It would cause a huge shock to society.
Letting out a long sigh, Lu Benwei asked, “Then tell me about Fang Xiaoxiao first. You should’ve known that she has the ability to predict the future, right?”
“Then answer me first. How did you know that I was hiding something from you?” Hu Wu asked, “Just because you said I don’t know how to handle cases?”
Lu Benwei pondered for a moment. “That was just the fuse. What really made me sure was when we went downstairs together.”
“When the hotel manager asked me if I wanted to stay longer here?”
“Yes.”
“Oh,” Hu Wu said meaningfully.
According to their plan, they would be able to end this once they knew Fang Xiaoxiao’s identity. Today was the day, regardless of Fang Xiaoxiao’s identity, be it the mysterious human or the monster. Lu Benwei and Chu Yan would end their identities as Lu Hongyi and Chu Jiayue.
However, when he went downstairs, Hu Wu wanted to prolong his stay at the hotel. It was obvious that things were far from over.
“So, you want us to monitor Fang Xiaoxiao?”Lu Benwei asked.
“It’s not a form of surveillance. At most, it’s a form of protection!”
Hu Wu shrugged.
“I said, let go of me first?”
Lu Benwei had no choice but to release Hu Wu.
The moment he saw the light again, Hu Wu immediately lit a cigarette.
“Oh my god, I’m suffocating.”
Hu Wu took a deep breath and revealed a smug expression. He looked extremely comfortable.
Lu Benwei sneered. “Be careful of cancer. Even if you have the constitution of a king, you won’t be able to save yourself.”
“You can’t tell a dying person that.” Hu Wu pursed his lips.
Lu Benwei did not want to listen to his nonsense. He said, “Tell me your purpose. What’s the purpose of the God Welcoming Association?”
“Catch Fang Xiaoxiao.”
Hu Wu exhaled. “To be precise, I caught someone who can predict the future.”
“It’s Fang Xiaoxiao, but the people from the God Welcoming Association don’t know.”
“You guys already knew about Fang Xiaoxiao’s existence?” Lu Benwei asked in surprise.
“Only I know. The God Welcoming Association only knows of the existence of such a person but didn’t know who.”
Hu Wu’s eyes narrowed into a line.
“Think about it. A person who can predict the future and see through life and death is so abnormal! If it were me, I’d do the same.”
“After Gan Yan landed at the Law Enforcement Bureau, he wanted to find Fang Xiaoxiao’s information. Fortunately, I hid it.”
Lu Benwei heaved a sigh of relief.
“It’s a pity that they found out about my investigation of the higher-ups in Hai Province,” Hu Wu said dejectedly.
Lu Benwei’s lips twitched.
“I was just about to praise you, but now it seems like there’s no need for that.”
“What about the dead?” Chu Yan frowned.
“It has nothing to do with Fang Xiaoxiao,” Hu Wu took a puff of his cigarette and said.
