Tomb raiding: Today is another day I don't want to go home.

Chapter 44 Anti-Infiltration Plan

Yan Huai walked downstairs to his lodgings. It was already 10:30. Only a few rooms in the hotel building still had their lights on, but Zhang Qiling's room was at the back, so Yan Huai couldn't see it.

Back in his room, Zhang Qiling was still holding a towel over his stomach, looking incredibly docile. Of course, it would have been even better if there hadn't been an eyesore sitting opposite him.

"Why are you here?"

Black Glasses rolled his eyes. Why was he acting like his wife had been stolen right from the start? What had he done to deserve this?

"On a dark and windy night, when it's time for murder and the deal, I, Blackie, am here to discuss tomorrow's plans with you!"

"So what did they come up with?" Yan Huai walked over and took the towel from Zhang Qiling's hand; it was cold. "Why didn't you change it to a warm one?"

Zhang Qiling glanced up at Yan Huai and thought to himself: It's better when it's cold.

Black Glasses' gaze shifted between the two, and after a sigh, he shook his head. One was a naive and innocent girl, and the other was a dullard. To be honest, they were both quite slow to develop emotional awareness.

"You noticed there are a few more people outside the hostel, right?"

“The Wang family.” Yan Huai wiped his hands with a towel, then unwrapped the bath stone and soap.

"Wang family?"

Black Glasses had never heard of this, but Zhang Qiling seemed to be deep in thought.

“They are the people Wu Sansheng is dealing with.” As soon as Yan Huai said this, the two people opposite him realized what was going on and a look of seriousness flashed in their eyes.

How did you find out about this?

Yan Huai looked at the two pairs of eyes that were puzzled but not suspicious, and his previous irritation instantly disappeared. In a good mood, he gestured with his chin to Zhang Qiling: "Come with me first."

After saying that, Yan Huai went into the bathroom first, leaving the two people looking at each other, bewildered.

"This is inappropriate, isn't it?" Black Glasses laughed as he finished speaking. With Yan Huai's limited experience in dealing with people, it would be a miracle if he could have come up with the ideas he was thinking!

Ignoring Zhang Qiling's condescending warning gaze as he stood up, Black Glasses followed the two towards the bathroom.

Yan Huai was already standing in front of the sink. He wet the soap in his hand and smeared the foam on the bath stone: "Lift up your clothes."

Zhang Qiling paused upon hearing this, his Adam's apple bobbing slightly: "I'll do it myself."

Yan Huai was puzzled, but he still handed the bath stone to Zhang Qiling, adding, "Don't make it red again."

Zhang Qiling's ears turned slightly red, and she didn't want to talk to Yan Huai.

The man with black glasses, leaning against the bathroom door, thought, "..." This is unbearable to look at!

Zhang Qiling's disguise will backfire? That's even less believable than Yan Huai's ability to fall in love! It's just a small trick, Blackie knows what he's doing.

"Xiao Huai, stop keeping me in suspense and tell me about the Wang family!"

Yan Huai nodded and leaned against the bathroom wall behind him, his slender figure reflected in the mirror in front of Zhang Qiling: "The Wang family wants to find someone to replace me."

thump—

Yan Huai quickly straightened up and looked at Zhang Qiling. The fallen bathroom stone was still spinning in the sink, while Zhang Qiling was still holding up her clothes with her left hand, looking nervously at herself in the mirror...

Yan Huai stared blankly for a moment, then snapped back to reality with a cough from the man in black glasses after he'd seen enough of the drama. He rubbed his nose, his throat was dry, and his voice was a little hoarse: "I'm fine, that person is dead."

Yan Huai reached out and picked up the bath stone, lathered it with soap again, but this time he didn't hand it to Zhang Qiling. Instead, he held Zhang Qiling's shoulders, turned him to face him, and then bent over to slowly dissolve the glue: "He is the one who has been replaced."

Black Glasses abandoned his joking thoughts. He and Zhang Qiling exchanged a glance, both seeing something unusual in each other's eyes: "You want to take this opportunity to sneak into the Wang family?"

“No,” Yan Huai said, supporting his silicone beer belly and turning the bath stone around. “I want to stay and act as a member of the Wang family.”

Zhang Qiling could only see the back of Yan Huai's head and his profile, which was occasionally glimpsed. His lips moved, but he ultimately said nothing, and the bathroom fell silent for a moment.

After a long pause, Black Glasses smiled and said ambiguously, "Third Master didn't pay enough!"

Yan Huai laughed too, his beer belly finally gone. He looked at Zhang Qiling and sighed, "I'll definitely ask him for the money again. Three million isn't enough."

"You need to be careful!" Zhang Qiling's eyes still held some disapproval and worry. Even he could confirm that the person in front of him was the real Yan Huai, so what about the Wang family? If they were recognized, Yan Huai would be in great danger.

"Don't worry!" Yan Huai didn't know what Zhang Qiling was thinking, but the feeling of being cared for and trusted was really good. "I will enter the underwater tomb ahead of time tomorrow. Qiu Dekao has spent a lot of manpower and resources, so it's impossible for him to ignore it for a long time. A Ning should know what I did before, so I can't meet with her again."

"I'll only be in charge of providing support tomorrow. Why don't you stay on the sea with me and wait for them?"

Yan Huai shook his head, his hand unconsciously pinching Zhang Qiling's silicone beer belly. Zhang Qiling felt awkward looking at it and reached out to take it away. Yan Huai followed suit: "I have to go downstairs. There are Wang family members around A Ning, and there should be more of them than I have encountered before."

buzz-

Just as Black Glasses was about to speak, his cell phone inside his coat vibrated. It was a text message from Wu Sansheng: "Third Master sent a message. Wu Xie will arrive at the dock around 1 p.m. tomorrow. He will go into the underwater tomb with A Ning and the others. Moreover, you two will meet an old acquaintance."

"Who?" Yan Huai asked.

"Fatty Wang!"

Yan Huai recalled the person he had met at the Seven Star Lu Palace last time—Wang Pangzi… Oh, he remembered, the one who, instead of greeting him, gave him a beating.

"Hired by Wu Sansheng again?"

"It should be. This Fatty Wang is quite famous in Beijing. He's a righteous man, but also cunning and slippery. He's said to be a tomb raider."

Yan Huai didn't really believe it. Before they met, he would just pretend that Wang Pangzi had forgotten. But now that they had met, it would be unreasonable not to make Wang Pangzi suffer a little.

Let's go into the tomb later! Yan Huai's eyes flickered, and an evil plan formed in his mind.

Zhang Qiling glanced up and saw Yan Huai's expression. Although he didn't know Yan Huai very well, it was impossible not to see that he was up to something. He silently lit a candle for Fatty Wang, then walked around Yan Huai and Black Glasses and left the bathroom on his own: "Get some rest."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Qiling walked to the wooden table where the human skin mask was still placed. After bending down and putting everything away, he leaned against the headboard and closed his eyes to rest.

"The blind man's place is sparsely populated and deserted. Let's stay there for the night, the three of us brothers can squeeze in!"

Black Glasses had only taken two steps toward the bed when he felt a tightness around the back of his collar. He turned around and saw Yan Huai's face with a forced smile.

"roll!"

"what--"

After kicking the rambling black rat out of the room, Yan Huai sat down on the edge of the bed, but he couldn't fall asleep.

"I......"

"that......"

Yan Huai noticed the struggle in Zhang Qiling's eyes. He scratched his forehead, leaned back, and lay down on the bed: "You go first!"

Zhang Qiling was somewhat surprised by Yan Huai's sudden action, but a strange emotion arose in his heart. He took out the water-repelling bead from his pocket and handed it to Yan Huai: "Here's your water-repelling bead back."
