Chapter 845 207: The Last 2 Favors
ps: Thanks to Deep Haze for the ten thousand reward, there will be an extra update, but not necessarily today...
It's not that I'm lazy, it's just that the plot is mind-bending, and often one sentence takes a long time to figure out. Allow me to simmer this thick soup slowly.
...
In the dim passage, Qin Min, dressed in all black, led the way, with Wen Yu closely following behind.
The atmosphere around was quiet, possibly because Qin Min had prepared in advance, and on the way, Wen Yu didn't encounter a single person.
The atmosphere between the two was like the quiet air itself, with neither taking the initiative to speak first.
Qin Min's task was merely to bring Wen Yu to a certain place.
And Wen Yu also understood whom Qin Min was taking him to meet.
Until Qin Min led Wen Yu to a very secluded little cave.
...
"This is it, I'll be waiting outside."
After Qin Min said this, he added: "This place is absolutely safe, and the defense measures are adequate to isolate any kind of perception."
Wen Yu nodded, walked past Qin Min, and directly entered the room.
The room's layout was extremely simple, aside from a sofa and a coffee table, the only other thing was a television hanging right opposite the sofa.
This sense of secret rendezvous instantly gave Wen Yu an indescribable thrill—as if secretly having an affair with a lover while hiding from a wife...
Copying a scene he had seen in a movie, Wen Yu stepped forward to the sofa, plopped down, then picked up the TV remote from the coffee table and turned on the TV.
...
"Sizzle sizzle..."
The noise began, but within seconds, the picture on the TV screen cleared up, revealing Tang Haofei in a military uniform, sitting neatly on the other end of the TV screen.
The communication was real-time, in other words, when Wen Yu saw Tang Haofei, Tang Haofei also saw Wen Yu.
Only to see Tang Haofei's face break into a smile, a gentle smile like a spring breeze, making Wen Yu feel as if he had returned to the Heavenly Palace where they fought side by side.
"Wen Yu, long time no see, I missed you!"
...
"Cough, cough..."
Wen Yu coughed heavily twice, instantly realizing that the Tang Haofei in front of him was indeed the real Tang Haofei.
He waved his hand forcefully, interrupting Tang Haofei's unseriousness.
"You... are you okay..."
Originally, Wen Yu wanted to ask about Tang Haofei's recent situation, but thinking about it, he knew that Tang Haofei's recent situation was nothing more than that—his second personality fiddling with the Ultimate Force Team, attempting to become king and reign, while the first personality...
Looking at this covert meeting, it's clear Old Tang has also realized changes in himself, with two personalities within one body wrestling against each other.
Quite a self-playing drama!
Hearing Wen Yu's words, Tang Haofei's face turned serious: "No, I'm not good..."
...
"About my second personality, you probably know as well, um, you refer to it as the price of power."
"Lately, this price of power has done quite a few things..."
Tang Haofei gritted his teeth, clearly quite unamused by his "brother."
Wen Yu nodded. To Wen Yu, Tang Haofei's second personality was just as unappealing.
"So, you called me here to get rid of your second personality? Frankly, I can't do it, the price of power can't even be resolved by the Dominator!"
Tang Haofei nodded: "I know all that."
"Hmm, then why did you call me here?"
"You still owe me two favors, remember?"
"Yes!"
Wen Yu nodded in agreement, then shifted the conversation: "You're not trying to get me to kill you, are you? To send the second personality away at the price of your own death? Let me say upfront, that's beyond the scope of a favor, you're practically asking for my life!"
Facing off with Tang Haofei's second personality head-on with weapons... just thinking about it is thrilling!
But Wen Yu genuinely didn't need that kind of thrill, not to mention what kind of upheaval would occur after Tang Haofei's death, just whether it was even possible to fight was already a big question.
Wen Yu had never interacted with Tang Haofei's second personality. To Wen Yu, Tang Haofei's second personality was a stranger, using two favors to get Wen Yu to fight with a stranger possessing Tang Haofei's power, that's too cheap a price for his little life!
Hearing Wen Yu's words, Tang Haofei also laughed: "It's not what you think, if I can avoid dying, I don't want to die either..."
"Actually, these two favors are counted separately. To you, the third favor is very simple, the fourth favor is more challenging, but not very dangerous."
Wen Yu squinted his eyes, gesturing for Tang Haofei to go on.
"First off, the third favor, at the meeting held the day after tomorrow, I need you to..."
...
Qin Min quietly leaned against the wall, his mental state unprecedentedly focused.
Qin Min had a rough understanding of what kind of major matters the two people in the room were discussing right now!
So, at this moment, Qin Min's task was to guard this passage, preventing anyone from approaching.
Of course, there aren't that many accidents in this world, nor are there so many spies.
In roughly an hour's time, the entire passage was utterly silent until the door behind Qin Min opened once again, and Wen Yu's pensive face came into view.
"All done?"
Wen Yu glanced at Qin Min, lightly nodding: "All done, take me back."
Qin Min turned and walked in the direction they came from, leaving Wen Yu to look at the small secretive room behind and then at Qin Min leading the way, a deep sigh emerging from his heart.
"These guys really know how to play..."
Wen Yu took an hour to figure out every detail of Tang Haofei's two favors, unsurprisingly finding that Qin Min indeed played a role in it.
This kid eats from the royal treasury and, along with Tang Haofei's second personality, formed this Ultimate Force Team, but in reality, he's still on Tang Haofei's primary personality's side, essentially serving as a spy placed next to the second personality by the primary personality, and has some unclear connections with Lin Haifeng...
The entire plan completely blindsided Tang Haofei's second personality, which probably wouldn't even think that in this world, there's not a single person by his side, everyone is plotting against him—including his "brother" sharing the same body!
How does the saying go?
Knowing a person's face but not their heart...
Despite Qin Min's fair appearance, this kid changes allegiances frequently enough, he's not lacking in cunning tactics, and his mental resilience isn't ordinary either.
Wen Yu truly wanted to ask, isn't your life exhausting?
Only after sending Wen Yu back to his room did Qin Min turn to take his leave—the entire process was smooth and secretive, and under Qin Min's operation, no one noticed.
