Chapter 15 The Ringing

"I agree with Brother Qiang's idea." Zhou Tong said. As Xia Qiang's team members, Yuan Xiaotian and Feng Jie naturally had no objections.

Xia Qiang's words were mostly directed at Jiang Cheng and the others.

"I have no objections." Jiang Cheng said, "But one thing, I hope our two teams are mixed, and each shift guarantees one person from each team."

"That's natural." Xia Qiang was not at all dissatisfied with Jiang Cheng's caution, because that was what he was thinking too.

Xia Qiang turned his head to look at his team members, his eyes swept across their faces one by one, and after a moment he said: "Zhou Tong and Feng Jie, you stay with me to keep watch tonight, Xiaotian, you get some rest."

"Brother Qiang, I'm fine, you should let Zhou Tong rest." Yuan Xiaotian immediately stood up and said.

But Xia Qiang had no intention of explaining to him, he turned his head to look at Jiang Cheng, "Mr. Jiang, how about this, Feng Jie and Brother Huai Yi take one shift, Zhou Tong and Brother Fugui take one shift, and you and I take one shift."

"Very reasonable." Jiang Cheng nodded.

"Wait." Suddenly, a man's voice came from the corner, it was Lin Muyun, he patted his sister Lin Muwan's hand, and the latter loosened her grip a little, Lin Muyun stood up.

"Young Master Lin, is there anything you need?" Xia Qiang asked.

"Captain Xia, I also want to join the night watch team." Lin Muyun looked at Xia Qiang, his expression firm.

"I can't satisfy this request." Xia Qiang directly rejected him, and at the same time explained euphemistically: "Young Master Lin, you and Miss Lin's status..."

"Muwan is not feeling well, it's understandable for her to rest, but I'm not, I'm in very good physical condition, there's no reason for me to be excluded from the night watch team." Lin Muyun said, "Besides, you should get more rest than me, you've been protecting me and Muwan all the way, I should do something too."

Jiang Cheng looked the man up and down, the other party's firm eyes revealed a maturity that did not match his age.

"Also." Lin Muyun continued: "From now on, everyone can just call me by my name, I'm Lin Muyun, and my sister is Lin Muwan."

"Young Master Lin, you..."

"Let him stay." Jiang Cheng said, then withdrew his gaze and looked at Lin Muyun, "How about you, Captain Xia, and I take one shift, Lin Muyun?"

"Of course." Lin Muyun nodded.

It was obvious that Xia Qiang didn't want this, but firstly because of Jiang Cheng's face, and secondly because Lin Muyun's attitude was firm, he really couldn't refute it. Later, he thought that since he was in the same shift as him, with him keeping an eye on him, and Jiang Cheng there too, nothing would happen.

"Who's taking the first shift?" Huai Yi asked.

"Me, Mr. Jiang, and Lin..." Xia Qiang paused, and finally, under Lin Muyun's gaze, changed his words: "Lin Muyun."

"The second shift is Brother Huai Yi, and you, Feng Jie."

"The third shift is Brother Fugui, and Zhou Tong."

After Xia Qiang finished dividing the teams, he repeated: "Is everyone clear?"

"Clear!"

Without any other nonsense, Xia Qiang, Jiang Cheng, and Lin Muyun came to the sofa and sat down, but what they didn't expect was that Lin Muwan also followed and sat next to her brother Lin Muyun.

"Miss Lin, why aren't you resting?" Xia Qiang felt a little headache.

Jiang Cheng saw Lin Muwan take out the sky-blue binder he had seen before, open it, quickly write something on it, and then hold up the binder for them to see.

On it were the words "Call me Lin Muwan".

Seeing this scene, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but find it interesting, these siblings had very similar personalities. His thoughts drifted away in an instant, and in a daze, Jiang Cheng recalled a mission he had once been on.

That mysterious island.

No, to be precise, it should be a whale island.

In that mission, he met a pair of siblings, the sister was called Su Xiaoxiao, and the younger brother was called Su An, and the siblings had a very good relationship.

After leaving the mission, Jiang Cheng had specially asked Pi Ruan to inquire about the news of these two people, but all of this was cut off with Pi Ruan's departure.

"Pi Ruan..." Jiang Cheng's eyes changed slightly, "No, it's Wei Jinting in disguise, he is the eye buried beside me, Lin Wan'er's eye."

"Mr. Jiang." Xia Qiang's voice sounded, "What are you thinking about?"

Jiang Cheng came back to his senses, "Nothing, just this mission."

Hearing this, Lin Muyun looked at Jiang Cheng and asked sincerely, "Mr. Jiang, what are your thoughts on this mission?"

"It's very strange, there are many things I can't figure out." Jiang Cheng said truthfully.

"I think Mengyao's death is related to her going out to deliver something to Wang Jie." Xia Qiang said, "At least it looks like it, or there is a problem with the number on the name tag, but the possibility of this, I personally think, is very small."

"I agree with your opinion." Jiang Cheng nodded, adding: "There is definitely a problem with the name tag, there is no doubt about that, but it shouldn't be this one."

The three of them summarized the clues they had collected before, and then started a discussion. Although Lin Muyun lacked experience, he had good logical thinking and a good acceptance of new knowledge. Gradually, he was able to keep up with Jiang Cheng and Xia Qiang's train of thought.

This was really rare for a pampered young master.

Lin Muwan, on the other hand, leaned on Lin Muyun's shoulder and fell asleep.

"Young Master Lin... Lin Muyun, I didn't expect you to be so receptive to these things." Xia Qiang sincerely praised. His knowledge of this protectee was also very limited.

"Not at all." Lin Muyun said with some emotion, "My childhood dream was to join the Night Watchers, to become someone like them, decisive in doing things, and upholding absolute justice, but I didn't expect that in the end..."

Before he could finish his words, a burst of rapid alarm bells rang, the ear-piercing sound like a sharp knife, instantly severing everyone's tense minds.

Xia Qiang immediately stood up, looking for the source of the ringing.

But what surprised and even frightened Jiang Cheng and the others was that this life-threatening ringing seemed to be only audible to them.

The people around them were completely unaffected and were still sleeping soundly.

Immediately afterwards, an uncontrollable drowsiness swept over them, and the three of them lost consciousness.

In the last second before losing consciousness, Jiang Cheng vaguely saw a burst of white light, which seemed familiar.

...

"Ring ring ring——"

After an unknown amount of time, Jiang Cheng was awakened by a ringing alarm. Before he could even open his eyes, the soft touch on his body had already reached him.

He slowly opened his eyes, and what he saw was a patch of white, with a little light.

It was... the ceiling.

He was lying on a single bed, covered with a warm blanket.

This was a relatively small room, simply furnished, with a table not far away... Straining his neck, he could still see an old alarm clock above the head of the bed.

His originally dazed mind instantly cleared up, "How did I get back here?" Jiang Cheng immediately sat up and looked around.

This was the apartment where he first woke up, the furnishings were exactly the same, he was sure it was his former room!

"Weren't we all together in the office yesterday?"

"Who... who sent me back?"
