Chapter 63: Why Are We All Being Reported?
Zhao Wushang's heart pounded, sweat pouring down, but he gradually felt his emotions stabilize, thinking frantically about how to resolve this crisis.
I mustn't be caught and taken back!
Only Fang Che's stern voice was heard asking, "The fabric of your underclothes is nice, from the Shen Zhen Store?"
"Yes, from the Shen Zhen Store!"
With just this one sentence, Zhao Wushang broke out in another sweat.
Luckily, he had already changed out of the underclothes from headquarters, otherwise this time...
Who would've thought that Fang Che would even notice such a detail.
"What's your name?"
"Zhao Wushang!"
"Sect?"
"Yishan Sect."
"What are you doing in Baiyun State?"
"Vice Leader of the Worldwide Escort Agency."
"Show me your identification documents."
"Here they are."
They were reviewed.
Fang Che's gaze still carried suspicion but had mostly subsided: "Who reported you just now? Do you recognize them?"
"I don't recognize them."
Zhao Wushang gritted his teeth: "But I recognize his voice, he harbors ill intentions and is extremely malicious. If I encounter him, I will definitely tear him to pieces!"
"Hehe... Society is harmonious, acts of violence are strictly prohibited! If you find anything, you can come to me and I'll handle it."
Fang Che gave a warning, then patted him on the shoulder: "Earlier, things got a bit urgent, is your shoulder okay?"
"No problem!"
Zhao Wushang complimented: "Your Kung Fu is impressive, sir."
"Not as much as those of you as the head of the escort, traveling all over... This job can't be easy."
"Who says it isn't..."
After chatting for a while, Fang Che continued his patrol, and Zhao Wushang was released.
It felt like a great pardon.
After walking a few dozen yards, he felt a cold sweat suddenly break out, his whole body drenched.
Leaning against the wall, he gasped for air.
"Heavens!"
Scared the life out of me!
This time, it truly was a narrow escape from death!
The fear in Zhao Wushang slowly dissipated, but the hatred in his heart surged with a roar! His teeth ground together angrily.
"Who reported me?!"
...
Fang Che was still patrolling.
Ahead of him.
Zheng Yunqi was smiling as he approached, having delivered the invitation, and was preparing to return.
Someone in the crowd shouted.
"Fang Che, this is the demon race's Zheng Yunqi!..."
Fang Che flipped and captured the bewildered Zheng Yunqi: "Behave yourself, don't move!"
Zheng Yunqi: "..."
After another round of interrogation, Zheng Yunqi was also a Vice Leader of the Worldwide Escort Agency.
Fang Che frowned.
Curiously, he asked: "What's going on with your Worldwide Escort Agency? Did you offend someone?"
"Possibly."
Zheng Yunqi forced a smile.
However, inside, he was boiling with rage, nearly losing his sanity.
"Damn it, I nearly lost my life!"
Who reported me!
Fang Che was also puzzled: "Encountered several reports of demon race members in a row... Why are all those reported from your Worldwide Escort Agency?"
Zheng Yunqi took a deep breath and said: "Sir, there must be someone framing us! I am just doing honest business, abiding by the law..."
"Abiding by the law?"
Fang Che looked at Zheng Yunqi curiously: "Aren't you from a sect? How..."
Zheng Yunqi stood proudly, reciting: "The Continental Code, Penal Law, Article One, Clause One..."
He recited a segment of the penal law fluently.
Fang Che's eyes widened, as if witnessing a divine being: "…Impressive, Vice Leader Zheng!"
Zheng Yunqi breathed a sigh of relief: "You flatter me, sir."
"Hahaha... If it's a misunderstanding, you can leave. I'll look for the person who reported."
Fang Che nodded, warmly patting Zheng Yunqi on the shoulder.
As they brushed past each other.
Zheng Yunqi finally escaped danger, feeling utterly drained.
The feeling of slipping away from the Ghost Gate and returning was overwhelmingly thrilling!
His thoughts aligned with Zhao Wushang's: "Able to call out my name and know my identity, it must be someone from headquarters!"
He was seething with anger!
"Damn it!"
"Absolute scum!"
"Reporting me!"
Meanwhile, extremely grateful to the Starlight Master! Reciting the Continental Code was genuinely helpful!
"Starlight Master... I'll return and pay my respects to you."
Fang Che continued his patrol...
Someone else reported: "Fang Che, this is the demon race's Jiang Bin..."
Then he captured Jiang Bin.
"Someone reported again... Let me ask you, are you from the Worldwide Escort Agency?"
"...Yes."
Jiang Bin was nearly scared to wet himself.
But this Fang Che immediately released him, just with a furrowed brow contemplating: "What is going on with your Worldwide Escort Agency?"
Then he turned and asked: "Where is your Worldwide Escort Agency?"
"Our Escort Agency is..."
"Take me to look around."
Fang Che decisively said: "What's going on, all of you like this, isn't it delaying my official duties?"
Jiang Bin didn't dare refuse.
In his heart, he hated the person who reported him, dripping blood.
But there was no choice, it was evident that Fang Che had his sights set on the Worldwide Escort Agency.
He could only obediently lead the way in the front.
In the shadows.
A few little demons saw Jiang Bin captured and taken toward the Worldwide Escort Agency, each shivering with fear.
What happened?
Are we exposed?
So they quietly followed, listening.
What's going on.
"Along the way, I've captured four of your Worldwide Escort Agency's people... all reported, named, but when checked, they all have legitimate identities, they're all fine... and all heads of the escort... What the hell is going on?"
Only hearing Fang Che's voice with anger and confusion: "Could it be that there's really something unusual about your Escort Agency?"
"Injustice, sir, we're just an Escort Agency, how could there be anything unusual, sir."
"We'll see once we look, hurry up and lead the way... Who is your Chief of the Escort? Yin Xiu? I've never heard of him."
Discussing as they went.
Heading towards the Worldwide Escort Agency.
Finally, those in the shadows listened carefully.
Quickly left, then took a shortcut, sprinting all the way back to report.
Meanwhile, Zhao Wushang, Zheng Yunqi, and others had already returned to the Escort Agency, still rattled, cursing loudly inside.
Then they saw a group of underlings rushing in: "Big trouble, big trouble..."
"What happened?"
The two were suddenly nervous.
"Jiang Bin was captured by Fang Che from the Guardian Hall, and he is coming toward our Escort Agency."
"Reported again?"
"Yes, reportedly. Then Fang Che felt there must be suspicions with so many reports against our Escort Agency, so he..."
"Damn it!"
Zhao Wushang almost smashed the table with his hand, hair standing on end with anger.
"That bunch of bastards, can't handle their own mess, but they report us! Damn them, truly deserve to die!"
"It's lucky for us, we fooled them, but what if we weren't so lucky? Or worse... if the one reported had a loose screw and immediately made a move to kill... what then?"
"This will certainly end in disaster at some point!"
"Mr. Zheng, we need to figure out a way to resolve this once and for all. This constant reporting is too passive!"
"Those bastards report and then flee, damn them, truly aren't worth anything!"
Zheng Yunqi frowned, thinking of a solution, but nothing came before they heard someone shouting outside.
"Fang Che from the Guardian Hall, here to visit."
Zheng Yunqi and Zhao Wushang quickly went out to greet him: "Fang Che, good to see you again."
"Hehe, what a coincidence, someone reported your people again, so I decided to come for a look."
Fang Che smiled faintly, hands behind his back, eyes sharp as a hawk scrutinizing the Worldwide Escort Agency, speaking softly: "Quite impressive. I wonder if I might take a tour around?"
"Fang Che, feel free."
Fang Che, in his Steward's Clothes, appeared handsome, cultured as jade, every move was full of charm.
Attracting countless young women's eyes within the Escort Agency.
"May the two Vice Leaders accompany me for a walk around."
Fang Che extended an invitation.
"Just wanted to have more conversations with Fang Che."
The three walked side by side, touring the inside and outside of the Escort Agency.
"Your Escort Agency's Chief of the Escort isn't here?" Fang Che asked with a smile.
"The Chief has gone to meet clients, after all, the Escort Agency is about to open, we still need to bring in business, and some business, is beyond our decision..."
Zheng Yunqi smiled: "Surely Fang Che understands those intricacies hahaha."
Fang Che nodded calmly, smiling without showing teeth, speaking softly: "Indeed, life is like the Jianghu everywhere. Some Jianghu in life and death, some on the wine table; and some, in the interactions."
"Yes, yes, Fang Che speaks rightly."
"Is there a roster, I'd like to have a look."
"Yes, yes, it's over here."
"Hehe... it's my duty, please don't mind... I'm genuinely curious, why is there so much reporting against your Worldwide Escort Agency, but not against others, there must be a reason."
"It's expected, it's expected."
"En, and there's a female head of the escort?"
"Yes, they're our sect's sisters, wanting to come out for some experience."
Zheng Yunqi lowered his voice smiling at Fang Che: "Fang Che knows, women... we have to go along, when they're satisfied with playing, they'll probably leave. But while they're here, we have to offer high treatment... Can't let them be messengers, haha."
"Hahaha... Vice Leader Zheng speaks the truth."
Fang Che laughed on the surface, but worked diligently.
Insisted on checking everyone.
In the end.
Standing in the courtyard of the Worldwide Escort Agency, hands behind, looking thoughtfully at the escort flag fluttering in the cold wind.
Didn't speak for a long time.
Zhao Wushang and Zheng Yunqi also dared not speak, standing aside accompanying him.
Fang Che finally finished contemplating, frowning, he said: "There is something, please convey it to Yin Xiu, the Chief of the Escort."
"Fang Che, please speak."
"Though the profession is legitimate, and the procedures complete; but... I still have some doubts about you always being reported."
Fang Che spoke faintly: "I hope such errors will not occur in the future. The grievances of your Escort Agency should not involve the Guardian Hall's affairs."
Fang Che, with full bureaucratic authority, hands behind him, solemnly scolding: "We deal with reports against you every day, so doesn't that allow real members of the Demon Sect to act freely? If this goes on, what will become of it?"
