"Do you know which car it is?" Lin Fan asked curiously.

"How could I not know? If you ask me, are you blind? Why would you need to look for such a big car?"

"Isn't it obvious at a glance?"

Wu Guodong walked over in a few steps and opened the door of the G-Wagon.

Lin Fan: "..."

So, she bought a G-Wagon- Class? And a bright red one at that?!

"Don't say it..."

After opening the car door, Wu Guodong first peeked inside before happily 'climbing' in.

"I've been wanting to try driving G-Wagon for a while now, but I didn't expect you to be such a tycoon."

"My wish has finally come true today! What are you waiting for? Get in the car!"

Lin Fan: "..."

No wonder you were so excited and wouldn't let me drive. You wanted to experience it yourself, didn't you?

In the end, Wu Guodong drove, while Lin Fan sat in the passenger seat. Mainly because he wasn't very good at driving...

I only know a little bit, so I can't really guarantee that I won't make any mistakes. I was originally planning to practice more when I came back this time, but who knew...

I've already bought the car, and it's G-Wagon!

Sitting inside the G-Wagon, the view is expansive, and the feeling is incredibly pleasant.

Seeing Wu Guodong driving so enthusiastically, Lin Fan also felt a sense of eagerness to try it out.

"I must say, Qi Zixiao really chose a good car. I originally thought she would buy something like a Beetle, a cute car."

"But that makes sense, she's never been the 'cute' type, so buying G-Wagon is pretty normal."

"This color is just too flashy."

Of the G-Wagon, I estimate seven or eight out of ten are black, because black is classic and looks good.

As for this bright red color...

Lin Fan even doubted whether there were even ten such machines in the entire Hua Nation.

This color is certainly flashy enough, but... it's also way too eye-catching!

"Where are you taking me?"

After a while, Lin Fan realized he didn't recognize the road and asked for directions.

"Didn't we say a couple of days ago that we'd make you our police station's 'scientific advisor'? It seems like we'll have to do it sooner."

Wu Guodong became serious and explained while driving.

Lin Fan could only pretend to be indifferent, but inwardly he felt helpless.

What's so special about this?

So, Qi Zixiao also managed to get a position as a scientific advisor or something at the police station?

At this point, he could only try to get information indirectly.

"Ahead of schedule? What's going on?"

"Hey, don't even mention it. There was a group of smugglers who, for some reason, decided to come to a place like ours to make their deal..."

"Then, our informant discovered it and is preparing to make the arrest today."

"Then they somehow got wind of it and... then, they were probably going to run away."

"But we searched every intersection for most of the day and didn't see a single person. In my opinion, they must be hiding somewhere in the Main City."

"These people are all vicious criminals. If they are left unchecked, something terrible will definitely happen."

"But if it's our police force that investigates step by step, they'll definitely go crazy when they sense danger."

You know what I mean, right?

Lin Fan nodded slightly. "Very clear."

"So..."

"Um!"

Lin Fan: "..."

What are you talking about?!

What I meant by "so" was that I wanted you to accept it, so I wanted you to do XXX, okay?

And then you told me, huh?

This is ridiculous!

I have absolutely no idea what you're trying to do!

Lin Fan felt waves of pain in his testicles.

However, he wasn't stupid. In fact, the words were already on the tip of his tongue. Analyzing Wu Guodong's words, Lin Fan drew his own conclusion.

"So, you want me to help you find those people's locations?"

"It seems Qi Zixiao revealed some of her abilities to Wu Guodong, but... how am I supposed to find someone?"

The thought had just arisen.

The 'passive skill' that he had just doubted began to exert its power again.

It's like a radar.

A feeling formed in my heart: the South!

Right or wrong?

Lin Fan didn't know!

But... passive skills are generally more powerful than active skills, and they are almost never wrong, right?

Therefore, he didn't hesitate and said directly, "South."

Upon hearing this, Wu Guodong broke out in a cold sweat. "You... again?"

"Why don't we buy some ingredients, Setting Up an Altar and Performing Rituals? Let's be more precise about the timing."

"So you don't understand science."

Setting Up an Altar and Performing Rituals? What do I know about that?

Lin Fan could only lie. "My ability is 'real-time calculation.' If I say it's in the south, then it's in the south. I'll tell you again whenever I feel the direction has changed."

Wu Guodong: "..."

Okay!

Now it's time for you to make your own choices again.

He had a bit of a headache.

Believe Lin Fan or not?

He believes!

The problem is, firstly, we don't know their exact location yet, and secondly, I'm all alone, with Lin Fan by my side... how do I take down that group of smugglers?

They're probably just daydreaming, or they don't even know how to spell "death."

So now he can only... A, take a huge risk, and transfer police from his jurisdiction to him, with plainclothes officers following him nearby, ready to surround and arrest them if they find the location.

B. Go and get yourself killed.

But giving away kills is something no normal person would do, so after thinking for a moment, Wu Guodong decided to choose option A!

Trust Lin Fan one more time.

Isn't this exactly why I wanted to ask him to be the police department's 'scientific advisor'?!

Since you've chosen to trust him, don't be timid or hesitant!

Thinking of this, Wu Guodong immediately contacted the deputy director. "Old Chen, you take one-third of the men and stay behind. The remaining two-thirds should all change into plainclothes officers and then follow me in different directions, using my phone's location as the center!"

"Director Wu?!"

Old Chen was stunned. "This... you're not kidding, are you?"

What's the juncture?

You ran away yourself, fine, but you also took two-thirds of the people with you? What if something happens...?

"That's an order!"

Old Chen: "..."

"Yes!"

"Tsk tsk, Lao Wu, you're really domineering now." Lin Fan clicked his tongue in amazement.

"Alright, if it weren't for you, I don't know what would have happened to me."

"Speaking of which, I'm counting on you as my 'scientific advisor,' so you absolutely can't let me down!"

Wu Guodong gave a wry smile.

"Probably... maybe... no way."

Lin Fan stroked his chin.

Well, how should I put it?

He feels like he's now just a navigator with slightly weaker functions.

Planning a route?

Won't!

But you can sense which direction the other person is from your own perspective.

This might be a bit troublesome, but it will also help us find out where the other person is.

Isn't this just a navigation app?

After driving south for more than ten kilometers, Lin Fan clearly noticed that the answer given by the 'passive skill' had changed.

"Eastward."

"East?"

Wu Guodong didn't hesitate. After finding a road that led east, he turned and drove straight onto it.

Another ten minutes or so passed, and Lin Fan hesitated slightly.

"Head north!"

Turn again!

Then...

Wu Guodong's expression gradually became serious.

At this moment, they were still in the Main City, but they had already left the Bustling Market center, and ahead of them was a 'forest park'.

It's not very big, but it has a few mountains with an altitude of over 1,000 meters, as well as lush forests. Many places are 'wilderness', since the forest park only allows tourists to play within designated routes.

We've arrived here.

Even without Lin Fan's reminder, Wu Guodong had a gut feeling.

That means... smugglers are very likely hiding here!

Firstly, compared to the Bustling Market, this area is relatively sparsely populated.

Secondly, there are not many surveillance cameras here, especially in the wilderness, making it easy to hide.

They could probably just squat down anywhere, and if they didn't show themselves, it might be difficult for hundreds of people to find them easily.

"Let's take a walk around the mountain."

Lin Fan suggested, "I can confirm whether they are on the mountain or not by walking around."

"Let's wait and see."

Wu Guodong thought for a moment and said, "I estimate there's a high chance they're there. Our people haven't arrived yet. If only the two of us go up, we won't be able to handle any problems that arise."

Lin Fan thought about it and agreed.

After all, I'm only at the Foundation Establishment Stage and don't have any endurance. Besides, what if someone has a gun or a bomb?

Who knows if I can withstand it now?

Half an hour passed.

Wu Guodong received a call, and his men arrived, all dressed in plainclothes and driving ordinary vehicles.

"Don't all come over. Just pretend you're normal tourists. Go up the mountain separately, still with me at the center, and wait for orders!"

After giving the order, Wu Guodong restarted the G-Wagon, drove it around the mountains, and then...

Lin Fan determined that the target was a small mountain called ' Changge Mountain '.

"The car can't go up, we can only walk. Or... why don't you wait for us down here?"

Wu Guodong hesitated for a moment.

"I'll go with you. Without me as your 'navigator,' I doubt you'll have a good time finding it."

"Alright, but you have to wear this."

Wu Guodong took off his bulletproof vest...

"You should wear it yourself."

Lin Fan didn't answer, "I don't think I'll get shot."

It's a feeling...

It's mysterious, but I just have this strange feeling.

Are you sure?

"If you don't trust me, why did you send me here?"

"All right!"

Wu Guodong compromised. "Then try to stay behind me."

"No problem..."

Go up the mountain!

Changge Mountain Lin Fan had visited before when he was in college. He had even done some activities with his classmates there, so it wasn't unfamiliar to him.

There is a farmhouse restaurant halfway up the mountain.

Lin Fan smiled.

"Look, I've been here before, to this farmhouse restaurant. The food there is quite delicious, especially the braised chicken, it's very authentic."

"Huh? Why is the door closed?"

"It's a pity, I was hoping to treat you to something else."

Lin Fan's voice wasn't quiet; it was at a normal speaking level. However, since the two of them were very close to the farmhouse restaurant with the 'Closed' sign, they could be heard clearly if there were people inside.

Wu Guodong's eyes narrowed immediately, and he replied with a hint of helplessness, "That's a real pity, it's my first time here..."

Ugh, I've been feeling really down these past few days. My wife is pregnant with our second child, and the question is... should we keep it or not? So frustrating.

Please give me some monthly votes to cheer me up, sob sob.
