Facing an Ancient God for a Year

Chapter 490: Chapter 490 Righteous Police_1 Chapter 490: Chapter 490 Righteous Police_1 Although he tried to hide it, it was clear that Brother Grey Hat was getting anxious.

After all, even the most expert tracking skills are of no use if the target simply gets on a train and leaves.

And, there was no doubt that Mr. Tyler on the other side of the communicator was even more anxious than him.

He definitely could not accept the Abyssal Chronicle being carried away right in front of his eyes.

In fact, Fu Qian did indeed have the Abyssal Chronicle on him.

In Fu Qian’s view, although the content of the notebook was chaotic, parts of it were quite interesting, and it was good for passing time during the journey.

Moreover, although Yuan Shan had proven that the notebook really had the effect of discerning “truth,” Fu Qian wasn’t in a hurry to write anything on it yet.

For over a thousand years, the people of Gulad had this notebook for so long, it was hard to ensure they hadn’t left any sort of safeguard.

Although he couldn’t tell this from Tyler’s reaction, this guy might not know everything either.

To write some personal information in it and get it leaked at any time would not be a good thing.

Fu Qian quietly enjoyed Brother Grey Hat’s reactions until the train was about to depart when the man finally made his move.

He swiftly moved forward and squeezed onto the train through the half-closed door.

It seemed that Tyler had issued a strict order, to not lose sight of him no matter what.

Fu Qian shook his head, sensing the strong determination of the other party.

After getting on the train, Brother Grey Hat quickly adjusted himself and regained his composure.

As for having gained a tail for his trip, Fu Qian didn’t mind it much.

After all, although this brother had decent strength, getting rid of him if necessary would be just a matter of convenience.

“Oops! Sorry!”

Just then, a fragrance wafted over, and Fu Qian felt a soft body lean against him, and at the same time, his foot was heavily stepped on.

Looking back, Fu Qian saw a young woman with neatly cut short hair, her cheeks slightly red, looking at him with an apologetic expression.

It seemed that she had lost her balance when the train started moving and fell against him, stepping hard on his foot in the process.

“It’s alright.”

Fu Qian responded indifferently to her apology.

“Thank you… I don’t know how to address you?”

Being stared at by Fu Qian, the woman didn’t hurry to stand up but instead looked up at him with a smile and asked.

“Fang Xun.”

Fu Qian shook his head internally.

If he remembered correctly, this woman had just changed seats to come over here.

And with this series of actions, it was very much like a reverse pick-up!

If it weren’t for the dagger behind her back, that is.

“Don’t move.”

Before Fu Qian could say anything, the short-haired woman leaned in close to his ear, as if whispering a secret.

“I think you should be clear about whether your gun is faster or my knife.”

“It looks like your knife would be faster.”

Fu Qian responded listlessly, while out of the corner of his eye, he noticed Brother Grey Hat, who had taken a seat, looking over in puzzlement.

No doubt he had realized that the short-haired woman was a Transcendent. At this moment, he was probably shocked that Fu Qian had someone to back him up.

“It is prohibited to bring dangerous items on the train, you know!”

The short-haired woman continued in a gentle tone by his ear, while the tip of her dagger never left the area close to Fu Qian’s heart.

The next moment, she even pressed her entire body against him, reaching her hand straight into his embrace.

This action was undeniably eye-catching.

But judging from the looks of most passengers, it seemed they were all feeling the same — damn, pretty boys really do have it good!

Now that she had successfully confiscated Fu Qian’s weapon, the short-haired woman casually signaled to someone.

The next moment, a middle-aged man with white at his temples stood up from not far away and walked over silently.

“I told you, there’s something wrong with this kid.”

After the middle-aged man sat down in the seat next to them, the short-haired woman smiled triumphantly and, in an angle only the three of them could see, flashed the Mercy she had taken out.

It appeared to be a team of a young woman and an older man, the older one at least of Middle Tier strength.

Fu Qian made a silent assessment.

To encounter two Transcendents on a train ride was indeed unexpected.

There probably weren’t any trains equipped with undercover police officers of their caliber, so most likely these two were volunteer soldiers.

This…

At this moment, the middle-aged man was scrutinizing the gun in the short-haired woman’s hands, his expression visibly grave.

This one seemed to have some discernment, realizing that this was no ordinary item.

“We are Night Watchmen.”

The next moment, she crisply declared her identity.

“Given your suspicious behavior, we need to confirm that you won’t endanger the safety of others.”

“Who are you, and why have you brought a weapon on board? You had better give a serious explanation.”

The short-haired woman, somewhat puzzled by her partner’s tone, still naturally chimed in.

“Illegal possession of firearms is a serious crime.”

Indeed, they were Night Watchmen.

Fu Qian was not surprised by this.

Moreover, when mentioning suspicious behavior, it seemed that he glanced at Brother Grey Hat, who got on last.

It was definitely this guy who blew my cover!

I was wondering how I got noticed so quickly when I’ve been this low-key.

Fu Qian glared coldly at Brother Grey Hat, causing him to break out in a sweat.

The next moment, he directly pulled out a card and handed it over.

If they were Night Watchmen, that was good.

This card was a special pass given to him by Yuan Shan last time, which according to her, held high authority.

Should be more than enough for a firearms permit, right?

What’s this?

As the short-haired woman looked at the item Fu Qian handed over, still puzzled, her partner had already taken a sharp breath.

“Shangjing Chief Yuan is on a mission; stand back, all unrelated personnel.”

Fu Qian let out a cold snort and growled in a suppressed voice.

To avoid conflict with her colleague, he had borrowed Yuan Shan’s name, hoping this person wouldn’t mind, right?

What?

When they realized what Fu Qian had said, the two Night Watchmen were instantly taken aback.

They naturally knew of Yuan Shan from Shangjing, was this guy a Night Watchman on a mission?

The middle-aged man was silent for a long while before finally reaching out to take the card from Fu Qian’s hand.

Night Watchmen seemed to have special identification skills; soon, the man returned the card and signaled his colleague with his eyes.

“Xiao Zhi, it seems this was indeed a misunderstanding.”

“How could this be?”

The short-haired woman, Xiao Zhi, was momentarily bewildered.

“Is he really a Night Watchman?”

“No.”

Before the middle-aged man could say anything, Fu Qian honestly replied.

Hiss!

Hearing his reply, the middle-aged man’s expression turned even uglier.

Not being a Night Watchman was even more troublesome; carrying such a special pass, and seeking out someone not from the inside for a mission, suggested that the content of the task was very much shrouded in intrigue.

Had they stumbled upon something they shouldn’t know?

“Sorry for the offense just now; we were also on a mission, and Xiao Zhi thought you looked suspicious, so we wanted to test you.”

The man explained quickly.

“You did nothing wrong, and indeed, I am suspicious.”

Fu Qian waved his hand, indicating they should not worry about it.

“Are you on a tight schedule for your mission?”

“Not really, taking this ride means it’s not too urgent.”

Xiao Zhi patted the seat beneath her and chuckled.

She seemed quite easygoing, and with that, she also relaxed.

“That’s good.”

Fu Qian nodded and pointed to the side, whispering softly,

“There’s a tail that has been following me; I would appreciate your assistance.”
