Chapter 50 Can’t wait, must join!
Suddenly, this special compound behind the police station was bustling with activity.
Just a moment later, Bearded Old Ma jumped off the cold chain truck and shouted to the crowd, "Don't just stand there. Count all the bodies and send them to the underground warehouse!"
"Xingchen, come with me." After giving the instructions, bearded old Ma called out to Meng Xingchen again, then walked towards a building inside the compound.
Meng Xingchen turned around and motioned Li Kan and Ye Zihong to wait outside, then quickly followed the footsteps of Bearded Laoma.
In an office, Hu Zi Lao Ma turned on the light, pulled over a chair and placed it in front of a desk.
"Sit down." Bearded Old Ma pointed to a chair, then sat down behind the desk and picked up the cigarette on the table.
As he took out a cigarette and lit it, Bearded Old Ma asked again, "When were those mutant rabbits dealt with?"
"More than two days ago." Meng Xingchen said, "Also near Beishan."
"Li Kan, Ye Zihong, when did you meet them?" Bearded Old Ma took a puff of his cigarette, looked at Meng Xingchen and asked, "Do you know what they do?"
"I know a little bit." Meng Xingchen also looked at Bearded Old Ma and said, "I just met him a few days ago. But Team Leader Ma, I think the most urgent task now is to deal with those mutant creatures. I think Li Kan and the others are talented, so I recruited them."
It seems that the police station has noticed Li Kan and Ye Zihong, but they may be too busy and have not found any solid evidence, so they did not take action against them.
"... Let's not talk about this for now." Bearded Old Horse was silent for a moment, then said, "Tell me about the process. How did you three solve the Beishan mutant wolfhounds and the mutant monkeys in one night?"
"When I was killing those mutant rabbits, I discovered a mutant plant..." Meng Xingchen did not hide anything and briefly recounted the whole process.
"You are really brave!" After hearing this, the bearded old horse smiled, "If there are any more powerful monsters on the North Mountain, you might not be able to come back if you do this!"
"I'll try not to do this again in the future." Meng Xingchen nodded.
Today's incident was indeed a bit risky.
That is, this method can be used when the great nirvana has not really begun.
In addition, the mutant wolfhound has obviously smelled the scent of the mutant red fruit, which is also very crucial.
"Go ahead." Bearded Old Ma leaned back in his chair and smiled at Meng Xingchen, "You are so anxious to complete the task. What else do you want from me besides business?"
"It's still about 'non-staff members'." Meng Xingchen also said directly, "I want to join the special operations team as a non-staff member. At least, can the special operations team protect Xingchen's security and share all the mutant biological information in Jiangnan City?"
"I've already reported the matter of the non-staff member." Bearded Old Ma said, "It won't be that fast. It'll take at least a week. But you completed the task very well this time. I'll call and report it to the higher-ups later to see if it can be done faster."
After a brief pause, Bearded Old Ma continued, "Xingchen, whether or not to establish a non-staff member is not something I have the final say on. I can only try my best to fight for you individually."
Meng Xingchen frowned slightly.
Everything has to wait, those mutant monsters won't wait for him to prepare everything.
Today, he would try his best to deal with the matter of "non-staff members" as soon as possible.
Reaching out of his pocket and pulling out a small notebook, Meng Xingchen handed it to Bearded Old Ma and said, "Team Leader Ma, take a look at this."
Bearded old Ma reached out to take it, flipped it open and looked at it for a few seconds, and his expression changed a little.
"Tai Chi Daoyin Technique! Meng Xingchen..." Bearded Old Ma spoke with a somewhat unpleasant expression.
Before he could finish, Meng Xingchen interrupted him and said, "Team Leader Ma, take a closer look. This is not your Tai Chi Daoyin technique."
Bearded Old Ma frowned, but still lowered his head and looked at the notebook again. Gradually, the look in his eyes changed.
From obvious anger, to astonishment.
"Have you revised it? It seems to have some unique features!" Bearded Old Ma raised his head and looked at Meng Xingchen.
"It can't be said to be a modification..." Meng Xingchen said, "I used to practice the 'Tai Chi Heart Method' and some other internal skills and other classics. Although there was no result, I am still familiar with the meridian routes and so on.
After reading your Tai Chi Daoyin technique that day, I suddenly felt inspired. After returning home, Li Kan and I pondered for a long time and worked out the running route in this notebook. "
"Never forget everything you see?" asked the bearded old man.
"..." Meng Xingchen was speechless. This bearded old man was obviously not so easy to fool.
"Not that great, I just studied it before, so I'm familiar with it. Also, I feel like I have a lot of experience with martial arts." Meng Xingchen said, "Especially in the last few months, I've suddenly gained some enlightenment on Jeet Kune Do, which I could never practice before, and some other martial arts.
Team leader Ma, you can try my creation... let's say I modified it, and see if the effect of this 'Tai Chi Daoyin Technique' that I modified will be enhanced."
"No need to try." Bearded Old Horse looked at Meng Xingchen and said, "I know this technique very well. Your modification will definitely be effective! It will definitely improve the Tai Chi Daoyin technique."
"Team Leader Ma, does my contribution of this modified technique to the special operations team count as merit?" Meng Xingchen asked, "Can this contribution earn me a non-staff member status as soon as possible? At least, can I share the information about the mutant creatures here?"
"..."Meng Xingchen's directness caught Hu Zi Lao Ma off guard.
After thinking for a while, Bearded Old Ma said, "This is indeed a meritorious service. However, I have not yet held you responsible for stealing..."
Before Bearded Old Ma could finish, Meng Xingchen interrupted him again, "Team Leader Ma, there is one more thing. I want to ask, how is the police handling the case of 'Li Yao's kidnapping and murder'? Do the higher-ups take this case seriously?"
Bearded old Ma frowned slightly, obviously having trouble following Meng Xingchen's rambling conversation style.
Taking another puff of his cigarette, Bearded Old Ma said, "The kidnapping and murder case of Li Yao is not within the jurisdiction of the special operations team. But as far as I know, there has been no progress in this matter. No information about Li Yao's whereabouts has been found. As for the higher-ups' views on this case...
It is definitely taken very seriously! The Bolenas Chinese District Branch also contributes a lot of tax revenue every year. Especially the "Venina Biotechnology Factory" project, which has always been taken very seriously.
This time, Vinina, the acting president of the China branch, was forced to return to the European region because of Li Yao’s kidnapping. The biological factory project was stalled again, and it is said that some other projects were also forced to stop. The relevant parties must be very angry about this case. "
"Why are you asking this?" Bearded Old Ma smiled and asked, "Do you have a good relationship with your former boss, Vinina Pollenas, in private?"
"Cough cough..." Meng Xingchen was choked by the last words of Bearded Old Ma and coughed twice.
It seems that many things cannot be hidden from departments like the police station.
The fact that Vinina invited him to dinner was probably discovered when Bearded Old Ma was investigating him and Star Security.
"It's like this..." Meng Xingchen said to Hu Zi Lao Ma, "Two days ago, Li Yao appeared in Jiangnan City again. He took some things from my current subordinate Li Kan and then fled.
Li Kan also told me about this today. He said that there was a "white-haired old man" who helped Li Yao. This person is very powerful! I didn't pay much attention to it at the time. But just on the way to the police station, I suddenly thought of something...
Team Leader Ma should also know that I used to be a colleague of Li Yao. I vaguely remember that Li Yao once mentioned to me that he knew an old man. This old man had a high level of attainment in "ancient martial arts"!
Ancient martial arts had long since declined, and I just thought of it as a joke at the time, and didn't pay any attention to it. When I came to the police station just now, I suddenly remembered this incident.
I thought about it carefully. Li Yao also mentioned the name of this old man. It seems to be called "Yan He" or "Yan Hai". I can't remember clearly. If the police can't find any trace of Li Yao now, then maybe we can try to investigate this white-haired old man carefully. "
