The president tried to trick me Chapter 2234

Yan Yuhan also noticed the absence of any signal, yet he proceeded to type, "It's boring up here, I want to play some games."

Tu Ming’s eyes flickered. "Then… go ahead and play…."

Given there was no signal or internet access, playing some single-player games seemed perfectly fine.

More importantly… someone engrossed in games wouldn't have the inclination for anything else, would they?

Such as committing murder or arson.

With his doubts resolved, Tu Ming didn't linger. He turned and exited the room to search for An Zijin.

The room fell into silence.

Yan Yuhan raised his gaze and looked out the window, where thick white mist obscured the expansive, distant mountain peaks.

He had been ambushed on his journey the previous night, and since he hadn't managed to flee very far, it was impossible for him to have left Rao City.

As he was still within Rao City's confines, he could find a way to contact his godfather, even without internet or a signal.

Lowering his eyes, he manipulated Tu Ming's phone. After accessing his personal account, the entire device seamlessly connected to a satellite. Utilizing cutting-edge R technology, communication was instantly re-established.

"Godfather, it's me. Yes, I'm alright."

Yan Yuhan connected to the Security Department's Terminal Server and located Fang Shaoan.

Had Tu Ming been a moment slower and overheard Yan Yuhan actually making a call, his eyeballs would likely have popped out!

How could he have achieved a connection when everyone else's phones were useless?!

Upon reaching the first floor, Tu Ming happened upon An Zijin tending to a pot of simmering chicken soup.

Tu Ming eagerly approached her. "Hey, chicken soup today? Has Xiao Ji finally seen the light?"

Xiao Ji was a mutual acquaintance of Tu Ming and An Zijin, and also the proprietor of this establishment.

For the past few days, they had been subsisting on wild mountain vegetables, which had become quite bland…

Accustomed to a diet of rich meats, the city dwellers were initially thrilled by the sight of the wild vegetables and ate them with gusto.

However, as time wore on… they still yearned for meat…

After days of cajoling Xiao Ji about the lack of meat, chicken soup appeared today?

Before An Zijin could respond, a lanky young man in traditional attire emerged from a room. He explained with a sigh, "An Zijin said that kid is injured and needs some nourishing food!"

This was his grandmother's treasured chicken, something he usually couldn't bring himself to consume!

"..." Tu Ming's face fell with envy. He glanced between the upstairs room and An Zijin, feeling a pang of despair. "I thought it was for me!"

"Can you be a little less self-centered?" Ji Weizhong playfully tapped Tu Ming's chest and returned his attention to his phone, which had just received several messages. "That's odd, there was a signal a moment ago, but now it's gone."

"There was a signal?" An Zijin also retrieved her phone and fiddled with it, only to find no signal. "No signal..."

"There's no signal now," Ji Weizhong said indifferently, pocketing his phone. He then inquired, "Do you know who that kid upstairs is? He was covered in blood when they brought him in. Could it be..."

Before Ji Weizhong could finish his sentence, Tu Ming clapped his hands together, assuring them, "That kid is perfectly fine. The moment he woke up, he started playing games. He must be a fellow gamer!"

An Zijin chuckled upon hearing this. "Didn't you just call him a bad person? You changed your tune pretty quickly, didn't you?"

"I only said that after careful observation!" Tu Ming omitted the fact that his 'careful observation' merely consisted of noting Yan Yuhan's neat handwriting and his polite thank you. A person who was reasonably courteous couldn't possibly be disliked.
