“Buy… buy a mountain?”
Hearing Qin Tian’s words, Dan Chenzi was stunned for a second, unable to fully recover from what he just heard.
Qin Tian grew curious too, asking, “Aren’t we starting a sect? Don’t we need a mountain, and have our shrine or something?”
“Uh… hahaha, Sect Leader, you may have some misunderstandings with the concept of starting a sect.”
Dan Chenzi laughed as he stroked his white beard, “Centuries ago, choosing a good mountain was indeed important before starting a sect. But what year are we in right now? Sects nowadays no longer need to be in a secluded wilderness.”
Qin Tian: “……”
Well this is awkward, isn’t it…
It must be that he read too many Wuxia novels.
“Oh, is that so… then what do I need to do?”
“Frankly, you don’t have to do much. Please just simply find me a villa at a quiet place, then give me a dozen henchmen. I can take care of the rest.”
“Oh? That’s it? No problem!” Qin Tian nodded and summoned Mu Die at the resting area.
“Xiao Die!”
“Mr. Qin.”
“You don’t have to work today. Wait for me at the villa for a bit, I have something to tell you.”
“Okay, Mr. Qin!”
Qin Tian looked at Dan Chenzi, “Mister.”
Dan Chenzi replied respectfully, “Sect Leader.”
“Please just call me Mr. Qin,” said Qin Tian, “Your real name is Lu Zisheng? I’ll just call you Lao Lu from now on, otherwise, it’s quite unnatural.”
“Indeed, I agree.” Dan Chenzi nodded.
“Mm, Lao Lu, come with me, I’ll take you to the villa.”
…
Qin Tian’s Lishan Villa was located on the north side of the second ring of Qiuming City.
At a more remote area even further north to the third ring, he had another villa.
Although not as big as Qin Tian’s Lishan Villa, it still had two giant yards.
In addition, this villa was right beside the foot of the mountain, has a considerable area, and even a basement and interrogation room.
This was his secret training base that Qin Tian bought for Zhou Wen and the others.
Ever since he purchased this property, Wang Yi, Zhou Wen, and Xiao Liu, all came to live here.
This was also the place where they interrogated Xiao Chen.
Right now, a total of 13 people live here.
The number of people pretty much matched Dan Chenzi’s request.
The villa had complete sets of furniture and also more than a dozen young men, which made Dan Chenzi very satisfied.
“Mr. Qin, refining pills will need many precious herbs and materials, I’m afraid…”
“I understand. Just give me the ingredients necessary, and I’ll get my men to buy them.”
“My deepest thanks.”
“It’s nothing. Go ahead and tell me whatever you need. If I’m not here, then just tell Lao Li or Butler Feng.”
“I understand.”
“Zhou Wen! Wang Yi!”
“Yes Mr. Qin!”
“His surname is Lu, just call him Lao Lu. From now on, he’s in charge here.”
“Yes Mr. Qin!”
Dan Chenzi was a pill refiner, and could make useful pills to make his men stronger.
Seeing his very own sect getting started, Qin Tian nodded in excitement.
With Dan Chenzi here, he should soon be expecting himself to grow exponentially in strength.
…
While Qin Tian was bringing Dan Chenzi to the villa.
On the other side, City East Police Station.
Two policemen were having a headache over Xiao Chen’s matters.
“I think, this Xiao Chen is full of lies. We probably can’t trust him.” One policeman said.
They were already informed of what happened to Xiao Chen last night, and they found many problems with his testimony.
If it was really a kidnapping case, what was the purpose of kidnapping Xiao Chen?
And how did Xiao Chen escape in such a short period of time?
While replying to these questions, Xiao Chen also had obvious hesitation.
Combined with his wandering eyes, it was evident that he was lying.
“But this thing does seem like it was plotted.” One of the policemen that came to Qin Tian’s office before with Liu Ruoxi, replied.
His name was Gao Yugang, one of the captains.
According to recorded footage, the first half of Xiao Chen’s sentence was fluent, probably not a lie.
Yao Yao’s car couldn’t have been hit for no reason.
And Xiao Chen wouldn’t have gone to the construction area in the north for no reason either.
Evidence was leading to the guess that this must be a planned kidnapping case.
But here’s when problems appear.
Why was their target Xiao Chen?
Just by thinking of this problem, Gao Yugang immediately felt his head hurt.
This was because from the beginning until the end, all Xiao Chen lost was a phone.
There was no way someone would kidnap him just for a phone, right?
“Captain Gao, should we continue investigating this case?” The previous cop asked.
“Of course, but… sigh, just send anyone to check it out.”
Gao Yugang very casually waved his hand.
It wasn’t because he purposefully didn’t want to help Xiao Chen.
It was because of the dense population. Their station receives about 50 cases every day.
Lost phones, lost scooters, lost wallets.
If they investigate every case to the end, then even if they had 100 more manpower, they still couldn’t get the work done.
Hence, they could only focus on some of the more severe cases.
Right now, Xiao Chen’s kidnapping case was not a big case worthy of their attention, as he lost nothing more than just a phone.
“Got it, Captain Gao.” The policeman nodded and quickly went to assign work.
It was also at this time that another policeman came with a stack of files.
“Captain Gao, this was the intel information that Captain Liu had us research.”
“Oh?”
Gao Yugang raised his eyebrows and started reading the files.
As he read, his frown furrowed even more.
“One billion dollars of unknown origin? And he has no foreign relatives like he claimed he did? There’s something up with this Xiao Chen.”
“You, follow me, we’re going to go meet this Xiao Chen.”
Gao Yugang immediately brought two of his men over and went to Xiao Chen’s living place.
…
Due to the incident last night, Xiao Chen didn’t get much sleep.
Right now, he just woke up.
He was in his villa, wiping the wounds on his face and body while trying to think who the most suspicious suspect was.
But no matter how hard he thought, he couldn’t think of anyone likely.
He grew frustrated.
“Which motherfucker learned my secret??”
Ding dong, ding dong!
The bell from the doors rang. Suppressing his sadness and anger, Xiao Chen opened the door.
Gao Yugang handed the files to Xiao Chen and began directly.
“Mr. Xiao, we request that you tell us the truth. Where did the one billion dollars in your account originate from? Does this have to do with the kidnapping?”
“What??”
Hearing this question from Gao Yugang, Xiao Chen was dumbfounded.
He knew that his lie would be seen through eventually, but he didn’t expect it to be so quick.
He didn’t have much time to think, he must reply quickly.
Should he expose his secret?
If not, then how can he explain how he got the money?
If yes… would anyone believe such a thing?
Even if they did, the chances of his phone being returned to him in its original condition were unlikely.
“Fuck it, I have lost the phone already anyways!” Xiao Chen cursed in his head.
He made up his mind, “Okay, I’ll talk… I’ll tell you everything I know.”
“Please go ahead.”
“All my money comes from my phone that was stolen…”
