#450 - Chapter 449 Three Doubts

Qi Jing looked at Tan Zuoyin, wondering if this 1.7-meter-tall black person in front of him was the 'Dwarf'.

Tan Zuoyin nodded her head slightly.

!!!

Dwarf!

He's the Dwarf?!

Qi Jing's eyes widened behind his mask.

This guy, currently engaging in a filial display with Tu Dudong, is actually the Dwarf?

Isn't he Tu Dudong's father? Isn't he a hero of Sand City?

No, don't be misled by subjective impressions. Him being the Dwarf and him being a hero are not mutually exclusive.

Qi Jing shook his head, and at the same time saw Tan Zuoyin slowly shaking her head as well.

Huh?

Why are you shaking your head again?

Qi Jing really wanted to open the Mind Barrier and ask her, why did she nod and then shake her head?

Was the judgment wrong just now?

Ah~ I really want to open the Mind Barrier~

As soon as Tan Zuoyin saw Qi Jing like this, she knew what he was thinking, and immediately gave him the middle finger, signaling him:

Don't you dare close it!

Qi Jing looked at that internationally friendly gesture, pursed his lips, and gave up the idea of closing it.

Anyway, he had to investigate the people here first before making a decision, so there was no need to rush at this moment.

"Son, are these three your friends?"

Tu Tan pointed at Qi Jing and the others behind Tu Dudong and asked:

"They must be tired wearing such thick clothes. Even making a gesture is troublesome. Let them take them off first."

Tan Zuoyin, upon hearing this, awkwardly retracted her hand.

"Yeah, they are good friends I made today, but the battle suits can't be taken off. It's too troublesome."

Tu Dudong, remembering Qi Jing's words, did not agree to let Qi Jing take off his battle suit.

If his father was imprisoned here, they had to retain their combat power, and they would definitely not give up their safety in such an insecure place.

"Then the helmets can always be removed, right? There's better food here than mudskippers. Eating a little won't hurt."

He turned around, pointed to the small cakes placed on the coffee table, and said to Liu Ersi and Qi Jing:

"Looking at this friend's face, you should be Orientals. I know you have a saying, 'Isn't it a pleasure to have friends coming from afar?' Since you're here, then eat. Not eating is not okay. Quickly take off your helmets and eat a little."

"Uncle, no need. We're not hungry, and this helmet is a one-piece. It's very troublesome to take off."

Qi Jing politely declined his "good" intentions.

Being so warm and hospitable, it was hard for Qi Jing not to suspect that these small cakes were poisonous. He would definitely not take off his helmet.

Seeing that Qi Jing was unmoved, Tu Tan had no choice but to give up:

"Alright, sit down first. Don't just stand there."

"Dad, why did you come here? And why haven't you returned for several days?"

Tu Dudong finally calmed down and asked the question he most wanted to ask.

Tu Tan said with a smile:

"I came to talk about cooperation with the owner of Daily Yoo, hoping they can help Sand City more, with my joining the company as a condition."

"What? You want to join Daily Yoo Company?"

"What's wrong? Isn't Daily Yoo Company a good company?"

Seeing the puzzled look in his father's eyes, Tu Dudong realized that Daily Yoo Company was probably not an evil company, and he might have been misunderstanding it all along, so he said:

"No, it's nothing. It's just that I didn't expect someone like you who plays with sand to be able to join such a big company."

"Your dad still has some abilities. A few days ago, I happened to be injured and saved Boss Daily, and he agreed to my joining."

Tu Dudong shuddered upon hearing this:

"What? You were injured?"

Tu Tan patted his arm:

"It's alright, it's alright. My injuries have almost healed under the company's treatment. Today, I'm here to thank Boss Daily."

Speak of the devil.

A blond, bearded old man pushed the door open and said in his heavy voice:

"Brother Tu Tan, I've been waiting for you here for several days. Thank you so much for saving my life. I must thank you properly."

Behind him were two fully armed bodyguards, showing that he was an extremely cautious person.

Qi Jing looked at Tan Zuoyin and saw her shaking her head slightly, indicating that none of these three people were the 'Dwarf'.

"Brother Daily, I was just passing by, and I also have a request for you. There's no need to thank me so much."

Tu Tan held Daily's hand and smiled as he declined:

"Just give me a small nominal position so that I can give the people of Sand City more benefits, and that's enough."

"Brother Tu Tan, I really admire your selfless dedication. I will definitely meet your requirements! If I hadn't heard of your deeds, I wouldn't have done so many good things in Sand City. I must thank you even more and give you more gifts!"

"No, Brother Daily, I'm just doing my part as an individual, but you can do things for the people of an entire city. You are much greater than me~"

"Brother Tu Tan, the grace of saving a life should be repaid with a fountain. This is the principle I learned since I was a child. If it weren't for your rescue, that space ability assassin would have killed me long ago. I must give you more benefits!"

......

Daily and Tu Tan began to push back and forth.

After translating their conversation through the earpiece, Qi Jing finally understood the ins and outs of the matter.

Sand City hero Tu Tan came to Daily Yoo Company a few days ago to talk to Boss Daily, and happened to encounter a group of people ambushing Daily outside the alley, so he stepped in to help and killed all the assassins except for a space ability user.

Tu Tan and Daily were also seriously injured as a result and stayed in the company without returning. Daily even hid directly thousands of meters underground to prevent the assassins from making a comeback.

After several days of recuperation, they were able to move again.

As for why no one notified Tu Dudong, it was a misunderstanding.

Tu Tan thought that Daily had already notified him, so he was not in a hurry.

Daily, on the other hand, had no idea of Tu Dudong's existence.

And the original deputy who knew had already died, along with a large number of bodyguards, under the space power of the space ability assassin.

As for how the space power killed those bodyguards and the identities of those assassins, they knew nothing about it.

Although Qi Jing knew the answers to these two questions, he always felt that things were not so simple.

Aside from the purpose of Daily Yoo Company digging holes underground, there were three doubts.

Doubt one, not cautious enough.

In the case of being assassinated, the guard at the door was still that uncle bodyguard, too few.

But it is also possible that the bodyguards had almost all died in that battle, and he could not find anyone for the time being, so he concentrated all the defense forces underground.

So this doubt can be temporarily ignored.

Doubt two, the survival of Tu Dudong and Tu Duoduo.

Why didn't the space ability assassin directly kill Tu Dudong and his sister when he escaped, but instead transferred them outside of Sand City, and only transferred them today?

It can't be that he didn't want Tu Dudong and his sister to die.

But it's also not right that he didn't want them to die. You know, if it weren't for himself, then the two siblings would have really died.

Strange.

Doubt three, he couldn't understand Zha Yin's nodding and shaking her head. Is Tu Tan the 'Dwarf' after all?

This can be asked of Zha Yin later, so let's not discuss it for now.

Summary.

There's a problem, there's definitely a problem!
