176: Why do you have to run into Su Duo?

“No,” Su Duo immediately rejected.

Although she didn't know what Zhuang Siwei really wanted to do, she instinctively felt that he had ill intentions.

“I haven’t even said what I want to see your cousin for, and you’re already saying no?” Zhuang Siwei was helpless; this Su Duo was truly unyielding.

“Anyway, it’s just no.” Su Duo crossed her arms, blocking Zhuang Siwei’s path, not letting him take another step.

“Heh, I refuse to believe it. You won’t let me see Sanming, so I can’t see him?”

Zhuang Siwei charged forward, trying to break through Su Duo's defense to get to the Su Family, but then he discovered that Su Duo was actually using Qi.

Zhuang Siwei: !!!

“I just want to talk to Sanming about something. Do you really need to be like this?” Zhuang Siwei’s eyes widened, his expression as if struck by lightning.

“Why wouldn’t I? If you’ve got the guts, defeat me!” Su Duo got into position. Today, she was determined to clash with Zhuang Siwei.

Qi flowed through her arm, and Zhuang Siwei looked closely, utterly astonished: “Your… your Qi is so solid??”

His Qi wasn’t even that solid!

Moreover, the transparency of Qi is related to whether the meridians are unobstructed, the grade of the Qi Cavity, and the solidity of the Qi Vortex. Su Duo’s Qi before was only slightly visible; it wasn’t nearly as shocking as it is now!

“Enough talk. Either go back immediately, or I’m making my move!” Su Duo was full of momentum now.

Her Qi Vortexes were originally more numerous than Zhuang Siwei’s, and her Qi had become even more solid after drinking the train exclusive water. Dealing with Zhuang Siwei would be a breeze, wouldn’t it?

“Hey, no, no, no.”

Zhuang Siwei immediately cowered. He only knew before that Su Duo’s mouth was particularly venomous, leaving no room for retreat when she spoke, but he never expected her strength to be this formidable!

It was truly outrageous.

“I’ll go, I’ll go, isn’t that enough?” Zhuang Siwei, adhering to the principle that a wise man doesn't fight when the odds are against him, turned and ran.

If he couldn't see Sanming this time, couldn't he just come again next time?

Why did he have to run into Su Duo?

Next time, he would just sneak into the Su Family when Su Duo wasn’t paying attention. Once he saw Sanming, what could she do then?

“Hmph, coward.” Seeing Zhuang Siwei turn to leave, Su Duo made a face at his retreating back.

They were both relatives, so why was Zhuang Siwei so annoying?

He wasn't like her cousin at all. Her cousin was both smart and strong. She liked following behind her cousin.

Just listening to her cousin in everything was enough.

She didn't have to use her own brain at all.

Cousin, when will you finally come back? I really don't want to use my brain!

...Outside the 155 Fortress, the Axe Gang selection area.

Zhuang Sanming suddenly sneezed.

“Achoo! Who’s talking bad about me behind my back?”

He rubbed his nose, many people flashing through his mind.

He had been here for several days already and had gotten somewhat familiar with the people here. Not to mention his few subordinates, even among the ordinary people, Zhuang Sanming now had his “confidantes.”

There were many ordinary people, and with these few “confidantes,” he could know what was happening over there at any time.

It saved him from having to focus his attention on the ordinary people’s side; that would be too tiring.

He now had to investigate the tin house and the junkyard, and also observe the two instructors and Steward Xiao He. Sometimes, he truly felt overwhelmed.

However, now that he had friends here who could help, he could more or less achieve “hearing in all directions and seeing in all directions.”

“Big Brother, Steward Xiao He wants you to go to his place.” Tao Erbao ran over to tell Zhuang Sanming.

Steward Xiao He was looking for him?

Zhuang Sanming frowned slightly: “Did he say what it was about?”

Tao Erbao shook his head: “He didn’t say, he just told me to call you.”

“Alright, I understand, I’ll go now.” Zhuang Sanming waved his hand. He would deal with whatever came his way. Besides, Steward Xiao He looking for him might not necessarily be a bad thing.

He investigated the tin house and the junkyard during the dark of night, and Tao Erbao and the others were keeping watch, so Steward Xiao He shouldn’t know about it.

So it shouldn’t be to demand an explanation.

As Zhuang Sanming walked, he wondered, could it be that because he had performed relatively well these past few days, Steward Xiao He intended to recommend him to the Axe Gang early?

If that were truly the case, that would be excellent.

But was there really such a good thing?

Zhuang Sanming wasn’t overly optimistic. In any case, when he met Steward Xiao He later, he would just play it by ear.

As he walked, he saw Tao Erbao still standing in place, so he called him over: “Er Bao, come here, I have something to tell you.”

“What is it? Leave it to me!” Tao Erbao was afraid of having nothing to do; that wouldn’t be good.

It would make him seem useless.

“Later, if anything unexpected happens, for example, if Steward Xiao He arrests me, you go and get the storage bag under my bed and hide it well. Don’t let anyone know it’s mine, understand?”

Zhuang Sanming had specially brought two storage bags to the selection area this time. One he kept close to his body, and the other he used to collect suspicious items, which he kept under his bed.

He said he was collecting suspicious items, but in reality, what was inside were all useless things, because the truly useful suspicious items he had already sent to Ximen Chuifeng via the ant army.

The remaining ones were just to confuse people. If someone really suspected him and found these things, they would be useless, and he could still argue his way out.

At the same time, it could also be used to test whether the other people living in his dorm were arranged by Bao Hui.

Although it didn’t seem like it at the moment, one must always be wary of others.

Moreover, he was also here as an undercover agent, and an undercover agent knew the feelings of another undercover agent best.

“Alright, Big Brother, you can rest assured and leave this to me! I’ll definitely keep it safe for you!” Tao Erbao quickly patted his chest to guarantee.

See, see, Big Brother still trusted him the most, didn't he? Otherwise, why wouldn't he entrust such an important matter to anyone else?

Sure enough, those few Level 1 martial artists were still not as good as him, who had already entered Level 2!

After Zhuang Sanming left, Tao Erbao just chuckled foolishly to himself.

Someone walked past and asked him: “Second Brother Tao, what are you laughing about?”

Tao Erbao immediately stopped smiling and said expressionlessly: “Nothing, I’m going back to rest first.”

The person was puzzled, scratched his head, and muttered to himself: “What’s wrong with Second Brother Tao?”

On the other side, Zhuang Sanming had already arrived at Steward Xiao He’s office door.

The door was open, and Zhuang Sanming could see Steward Xiao He sitting inside from the doorway.

“Steward, you called for me?” Zhuang Sanming knocked on the door and asked politely.

“You’re here, come in quickly.”

Steward Xiao He saw Zhuang Sanming and enthusiastically waved him in.

Zhuang Sanming was momentarily unclear about Steward Xiao He’s intentions, but since he was already here, he couldn't just turn around and leave.
