Chapter 486: Chapter 266 Home? There’s no one in their family_2”Uh...” Wolf was stunned too. He repeated what Jiang Shu had just said, ”You taught him magic?”

”Yeah,” Jiang Shu replied naturally, ”otherwise, what can I teach? I only know some magic, and this term also comes from magic. What else could I teach him? How to be a gentleman and then let me go?”

Wolf got the impression from Jiang Shu’s natural demeanor that things were supposed to be this way.

A: Gentleman?

B: Stretching power.

C: Mr. Jiang Gentleman, recklessly stretching power. One day, the power might be gone.

D: The trend has passed.

Jiang Shu: ”...”

What a mess. If you keep talking nonsense, I’ll shut you all down.

He silently lowered his head, ensuring that his face wouldn’t be seen by Wolf and Tang Hexun across the table, and then glared at the four Tablet Spirits hiding underneath the table.

The four Tablet Spirits instantly became silent as cicadas in winter, still as tortoises.

Then he raised his head again and looked back at both Wolf and Tang Hexun, ”This shouldn’t affect our plan, right? I can guarantee that Rift didn’t get any information about you guys from me. If nothing goes wrong, he’ll fall right into our trap.”

Tang Hexun observed Jiang Shu for a while but found nothing unusual on his face, so he nodded in agreement, ”If that’s the case, then we can proceed to the next step of our arrangement.”

”The next step?” Jiang Shu was a bit puzzled. He glanced at the time, ”We can do it now? Don’t you two need to rest for a while?”

”No need, haven’t I told you before? Extraordinary energy is the basic term for a police officer.” Wolf also smiled at Jiang Shu and blinked vigorously, as if rebooting his brain.

Soon, he was looking at Jiang Shu with renewed vigor, ”Since that’s settled, we can now proceed to the next step.”

”Alright,” Jiang Shu got serious as well.

”Wolf, Mr. Jiang, please hand over your wristwatches first,” Police Chief Tang Hexun stood up. He took out a Black Box and said, ”I need to make sure our defensive deployment plan won’t be leaked, so...”

”No problem, I understand.” Jiang Shu willingly took off his wristwatch and, along with Wolf, placed it into the Black Box.

Likewise, Tang Hexun placed his own watch into it too. Then he took out three Iris Flower Badges, placing two of them on the table in front of Jiang Shu and Wolf, ”These are mini-walkie-talkies, with encrypted channels. Once the plan starts, we’ll use these to communicate.”

Wolf picked up the badge and clipped it onto his shirt collar. Afterward, he turned his gaze to Jiang Shu.

And Jiang Shu did the same; however, his gaze then shifted back to his four Tablet Spirits.

Tablet Spirits could also transmit information online, but he couldn’t leave these four behind.

Without the four Tablet Spirits, he could only use three Derivative Entries at the same time, and his spiritual power would be limited as well...

In that case, both his Combat Power and overall ability would be severely affected.

”I’ll store them at the police station,” Jiang Shu took the initiative to say, ”I’ll shut them down.”

If he couldn’t take them all, then leaving them at the police station was also fine.

Anyway, the Optical Invisibility Technique could make one of them invisible; he could just have Little Ding follow him, and the other three could stand by in hiding.

”Hmm, that’s fine,” Tang Hexun agreed since Jiang Shu suggested it.

Afterward, he opened a device that could project the screen onto the table surface, and a 3D projection of the central business district in Thirteen District B5 appeared on the table.

”Our target this time is this building, the Seges Building of the Sages Group,” Tang Hexun pointed at one of the majestic buildings, ”According to the information we’ve got, this group’s interior is filled with workplace bullying and value exploitation. Some employees work far beyond legally mandated hours, they are subjected to excessive surveillance of their private lives, and the company’s deformed hierarchy system allows superiors to oppress employees at will... and this is just the tip of the iceberg.”

He opened a document, ”Our bait, Hughes, is one of the victims of this corporate bullying. A week ago, his friend Liu Sheng disappeared, suspected to be dead, and we suspect it has something to do with some conflict within the company.”

”But Liu Sheng’s disappearance just fizzled out like that, the police even didn’t receive a report,” Tang Hexun’s face showed helplessness.

While he didn’t elaborate, the reasons were not hard to guess.

”Are those who resign also continuously harassed and threatened?” Jiang Shu was puzzled; how could such a company not have gone bankrupt?

”Due to the constraints of the Character Card system, employees generally don’t resign hastily,” Tang Hexun thought for a moment before continuing, ”The consequence of resigning rashly is not being able to find a job, which makes it difficult to survive in Lonely City. Moreover, as a leading company in the industry, under the pressure of the club president, it’s almost impossible for former employees to find new jobs.”

”I see,” Jiang Shu also understood a bit.

In essence, the Character Card system allowed capitalists to oppress their employees even more blatantly in this respect.

B: ”The word ’capital’ suppresses ’people’!”

B: ”The word ’fund’ locks up ’people’!”
