"What should we do? Brother Tian, since you know the prescription is fake, why didn’t you make them hand over the real one?" Liu Wenxing asked, puzzled.
Li Wenxuan, Lu Jia, and others also didn’t understand what good a fake prescription would do.
"You think the Japanese are that dumb? If he insists the prescription is real, what can you do? Even if you killed him, it wouldn’t solve anything," Lin Tian explained.
His x-ray vision was his biggest secret, and it was difficult to explain to them. Seeing that they were still worried, Lin Tian continued, "Don’t worry, every prescription follows certain principles of dicine. Even if they’ve changed it, based on these principles, I can spot the fakes at a glance. So, it won’t be hard to deduce the real prescription."
"I see, Brother Tian is really impressive," Liu Wenxing said with a laugh.
In reality, Lin Tian didn’t understand much about dical principles at all. To deduce the real prescription from a mix of true and false would require a truly skilled doctor with thorough knowledge and rich experience. Lin Tian knew he was far from that level, and he only said this to reassure Liu Wenxing and the others.
"Boss, your gold wire." Lu Jia took off the golden wire and handed it over to Lin Tian.
Lin Tian received it and wound it back around his wrist, this being an antique Golden Needle, not sothing to be lost.
"Boss, what should we do with these things left by the Japanese on the table?" Lu Jia asked once more for instructions.
"I’ll take the dicine bottle. As for the rest, you figure out what to do with them. Given how wimpy they were, they won’t have the face to co back for them," Lin Tian said, then went about collecting his phone, wallet, and finally stored away the bottle of dicine powder.
This dicine powder was already a finished product which would co in handy for future research. Lin Tian rembered the Japanese had also used dicine in the form of pills, indicating that the final product could be made into various forms as needed. Liquids were easy to ingest but not convenient to carry, whereas solid powder or pills were much more portable.
"Got it," Lu Jia nodded, then instructed the waitstaff to clean the table.
"Wenxing, you go hang out with them. I’m going to deal with my mouth. I can handle spicy food, but if I kissed a girl, I’m afraid she’d pass out from the heat," Lin Tian joked with a sly smile.
Liu Wenxing and a few other guys started sniggering at his comnt, looking back and forth between Lin Tian and Lu Jia, which caused Lu Jia to blush, purse her red lips, and avoid looking at Lin Tian.
"You guys, don’t bully our Manager Lu, or else she’ll get the whip and chili oil treatnt," Lin Tian warned the sniggering n, pretending to admonish them.
"Haha, Brother Tian, rest assured. Keep the whip and chili oil for yourself, it’s quite energizing," Li Wenxuan joined in the teasing, pushing things in an increasingly outrageous direction.
You shaless guys, Lin Tian responded with a middle finger, showing his contempt before turning and heading upstairs. He was indeed going to take care of the spiciness in his mouth; the flavor was stronger than the sll of alcohol, and without treating it, it would be impossible to talk too much with others.
Lin Tian rinsed his mouth with lemon water, drank so yogurt, and rinsed several more tis, struggling for half an hour. Although the spiciness was still there, he finally got rid of the sll. Bored and sucking on a yogurt bottle, he wondered when those two guys would co back when suddenly, he had a hunch.
Speak of the devil and he shall appear, Lin Tian thought with amusent. Tossing away the yogurt, he quickly moved to the rooftop. Just then, two figures had just jumped over the railing. It was Rossi and Ghost, the very two Lin Tian had been waiting for.
"Brother Tian, we’re back," Rossi said respectfully.
"You two really know how to pick your way, ignoring the perfectly good door and choosing to climb up instead," Lin Tian said helplessly.
"We just got excited and decided to race up, but I still lost to Rossi by a bit," Ghost explained, then sniffed and asked curiously, "Brother Tian, why do I sll Naga Viper on you?"
Rossi also took a sniff, apparently also detecting the scent. These two had noses sharper than a dog’s, which left Lin Tian quite speechless. He could only recount the incident that had happened at the bar to them.
"It is a bit strange that the Japanese want the bar," Ghost said with a frown, pondering before adding, "But if the Japanese have so plan in mind, a bar is indeed the perfect place to gather information. With all sorts of people coming and going, and considering the Night Rose Bar’s popularity, it’s not surprising they want to take over."
"Are you saying the Japanese are looking to use the bar as an intelligence-gathering site?" Lin Tian thought to himself and asked, "Have you heard about an organization in Xikou City called the Sun Shadow Association recently?"
"Sun Shadow Association?" Both Rossi and Ghost wore puzzled expressions, clearly having never heard of it.
"Never heard of it," Ghost shook his head, and Rossi did the sa.
"If you don’t know, then never mind. By the way, why did you guys co back so late? With Ghost’s connections, registering a company should not be difficult, right?" Lin Tian asked, changing the subject.
"We finished the registration process a while ago," Rossi said as he took out the docunts and handed them to Lin Tian before adding, "But Ghost and I went to et so of his forr comrades."
Lin Tian was startled. If Ghost had been a rcenary, then his comrades must also have been rcenaries, right?
Ghost nodded in explanation, "They were teammates from my rcenary days, and I was their captain. They stopped working as rcenaries after I left, only occasionally accepting so bodyguard jobs."
"Brother Tian, Ghost says that a security company can’t only consist of people with our kind of special abilities. We also need people with various levels of prowess. Otherwise, the state might misunderstand our purpose in setting up the security company and it could cause trouble sooner or later. Anyway, so tasks don’t require our intervention, so we went to et Ghost’s forr teammates in the hope they would join Tianxuan Special Security," Rossi continued with the purpose of their eting.
"Hmm, I’ve considered this issue before, but the trouble was finding trustworthy people. How about their loyalty?" Lin Tian asked prudently, not getting overly excited by the good news.
Among rcenaries, there was a mix of good and bad, and if they recruited soone of dubious character, it could an trouble, maybe even getting stabbed in the back. Lin Tian was not afraid for himself, but if they were supposed to be protecting his friends and betrayed them, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Brother Tian, don’t worry. Their character is solid, and they are all from Huaxia. They served in the regular Huaxia military before. After they were discharged, family tragedies led them to reluctantly join the rcenaries. They are all honorable n," Ghost reassured Lin Tian, aware of his concerns and speaking to the teammates’ background.
Having served in the regular Huaxia military was a sign of good pedigree. Lin Tian was reassured. For Tianxuan Special Security to grow, it was necessary to recruit more talent.
"However, they do have so requests," Ghost said, glancing at Lin Tian.
"What requests?" Lin Tian asked, understanding that it was normal for talented individuals to have demands.
"I told them that Tianxuan Special Security’s boss is even tougher than , but they didn’t believe it and want so kind of verification," Ghost said with an odd expression.
