"What the hell do you want?"

After asking these words, the silence on the other end of the phone lasted for 10 seconds, and Lin Xianfu wasn't going to wait any longer as he continued to press the issue.

"I know who you are."

Expanding his ability to listen to all the details on the other side of the phone, Lin Xianfu racked his brain with all he could think of, trying his best to mimic the voice of the monster that he thought most resembled "brutal, ice-cold, murderous, and eating one or two people at every meal" and continued, "Answer me, Gao Yong. My patience is very limited."

"....."

The other end of the phone continued to be silent, and after a few seconds, a low man's voice came out of the phone, "... Lin Xianfu, 24 years old, single parent, currently employed at a veterinary clinic on the outskirts of Pingjing."

"You've investigated quite carefully, but this has nothing to do with the question I asked."

Lin Xianfu didn't deny it, not at all surprised that he was able to find out information about himself, after all, he had gone straight to his mother and sent himself a message, it would seem strange not to know who he was, right?

Lin Xianfu continued to say in that strange tone of voice, "Answer me, Gao Yong. Your purpose."

"Lin Xianfu, there's no need for our relationship to be so frosty. I'm actually a police officer." The caller explained in a deep voice.

In fact, from the voice of Gao Yong's speech, Lin Xianfu could hear that he wasn't lying about this statement.

This was at the same time the doubts that had been surrounding his heart were also answered: if he was a police officer, then everything made sense. With the existence of the police department's unique information network, there is no difficulty at all in having one's information checked out.

At the same time, confirmed that he was a police officer, not the so-called "hunter" this point in fact he also quietly relieved.

However, in order to take control of the initiative in the conversation, and still maintain the "brutal monster" persona verbally, Lin Xianfu said in a cold voice, "If you say yes, I have to believe? I even said I am the Jade Emperor, do you believe me?"

After saying that, Lin Xianfu added, "If you didn't have the intention of harming my family, I wouldn't be talking so much nonsense with you. Let's get straight to the point, the purpose of looking for me. This is the third time I've asked questions, and my patience is running out."

"..."

Reporting his identity had no effect, and the other end of the phone once again fell silent. Lin Xianfu went to listen carefully, and based on the fine sounds that his hearing caught, he judged that he should be asking for instructions on the contents of the conversation from someone, and that behind him, there should be someone else who was instructing him.

"... We would like to meet with you, Lin Xianfu." After a short interval, Gao Yong's voice continued to ring out, "There are some things that are not convenient to talk about over the phone. Why don't we make an appointment outside and discuss it in detail in person."

Meet in person? Lin Xianfu actually had a similar intention, but immediately agreeing to it seemed too monkeyish, he deliberately paused for a while before slowly saying, "Good."

"Then it's a deal." Receiving a reply, Gao Yong's voice sounded a bit happy, "It's not too late, why don't we set it for tomorrow, the place is..."

"There's no way I'm letting you decide the place to meet." Lin Xianfu rebuffed in a single breath, saying in a cold voice, "If after I arrive at the venue, what comes is not you but a few men with guns, won't I be delivering the goods myself?"

"Well." Gao Yong was stunned, as if he did not expect the opposite side to say that.

"In order to ensure my own safety, the time must be set by me, and the place is the same." Lin Xianfu continued, "Tell the person behind you that if they don't agree, then there's no need to find me again."

"..." Silence came from the other end of the phone once again. Lin Xianfu knew that Gao Yong was probably asking for instructions from above.

"We absolutely have no intention of harming you." After a long time, Gao Yong spoke again, his tone sincere, "But we can understand your considerations. We agree to your conditions, but we also have a request that we hope you can agree to."

"Speak." Lin Xianfu coldly squeezed out a single word in a monster's voice.

"The time can be set as you wish, but set the meeting place, please try to set it within a range of three kilometers around Pearl River Road." Gao Yong's calm and resolute voice said.

Three kilometers around Pearl River Road? Lin Xianfu quickly recalled all the buildings in that neighborhood in his mind... There didn't seem to be a police station?

"There doesn't seem to be a police station in that neighborhood, Gao Yong." Lin Xianfu spoke with a sneer, "I thought you would locate somewhere convenient to arrest me."

"Of course not. We don't have any thoughts of harming you, I can assure you of that."

"I can't believe everything you say." Lin Xianfu kept his tough attitude and said, "I can only promise you to set it five kilometers around there, and that's my last concession. You go ahead and communicate."

"..."

During this time of silence again, Lin Xianfu vaguely appeared to hear a cold woman's voice, and she said, Promise him.

Thus, Gao Yong decisively conveyed the words, followed closely by Lin Xianfu leaving a sentence, "Wait for me to get in touch." And hung up the phone.

--

At the same time, inside an office.

"After keeping watch for a day, he finally contacted us and agreed to meet."

Holding the scalding cell phone, Gao Yong gasped and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and smiled bitterly at the person sitting at the desk in front of him, "Team Leader, wasn't Lin Xianfu written inside that file of yours as having a timid personality and not being good at getting into conflicts with people? Why am I so stressed out talking to him?"

"He gives me the feeling like he's going to eat me alive if I say one word wrong!" Gao Yong complained, "I should have known to give this job to Xiao Liu, he's good at communication!"

Opposite the desk, sitting with her back against the chair was a woman of about twenty-seven or eighteen years old, wearing a long black trench coat, topped with a head of long orange hair and an indifferent expression.

At this moment, on her delicate face with picturesque eyebrows, her expression was as cold as an immutable iceberg, with a lady's cigarette in her mouth.

Hearing the words of her subordinates, she was indifferent and only said, "Don't talk nonsense. Report to the professor, the matter is settled."

"Yes!"

Gao Yong responded, but immediately followed by worrying, "But his request is for a five kilometer perimeter ah, would that be too far away? Is it okay for the professor to leave the institute that far away?"

The woman sitting in the chair had obviously thought of this problem as well, but after a little thought, she quickly made a decision.

"No need to worry." She said firmly, "When we meet, I'll go with the professor."

--The woman thought, "Even though Lin Xianfu's body is hosting a Whimsical Body, it doesn't matter, I have one too.

"Yes!"

Receiving her promise, Gao Yong visibly relaxed and said, "Then I won't..."

"No, you have to go too."

The woman with the cigarette in her mouth interrupted Gao Yong's next words, "Don't forget, Lin Xianfu agreed to the request mainly to see 'you'."

"... Fine." Gao Yong sighed, feeling a little tired in his heart.

"That's it, you can go now."

Gao Yong immediately left nimbly, already thinking in his mind how to explain to his wife why he had come home so late ---
