Chapter 192: Are You Insulting My Intelligence?
"Are you insulting my intelligence?" Lin Tian snorted coldly upon hearing the other’s words.
"I’m insulting your intelligence?" The woman speaking outside was so furious that she almost exploded.
"You want to see my ID, I’ll have to open the door, right? Then you’ll seize the opportunity to come in, right? Not sleeping in the middle of the night, you say you’re from the Security Management Institute, even a ghost wouldn’t believe it!" Lin Tian didn’t believe a word she said.
Outside the door, after a long silence, the woman’s threatening voice rang out: "Open the door! Don’t blame me for using forcible means if you don’t!"
"Oh? Can’t fool me and now you’re resorting to force?" Lin Tian shouted through the door; "If you have the guts, use your force, I’m not afraid of you all!"
"Bastard!" The woman shouted angrily outside, then yelled loudly: "Someone, find a way to open this door!"
"Captain, this is a private residence, isn’t it inappropriate for us to forcibly enter?"
"Captain, you must stay calm!"
In that moment, two different male voices were advising the woman, repeatedly addressing her as Captain, it was clear she was an official.
"Stop the nonsense, find a way to open this door immediately, I suspect there’s an important criminal stealing national artifacts inside!" The woman’s rebuking voice echoed.
"Yes!"
"Yes!"
Both people answered simultaneously.
Lin Tian heard rapid footsteps coming closer and then moving away.
With narrowed eyes, Lin Tian saw that there were three people outside the door, but now there was only one, and it was a woman.
"Miss, you sure have quite the temper at this hour of the night?" Lin Tian said towards the outside.
In Lin Tian’s eyes, the door didn’t even exist; he was staring straight at the woman outside.
Wearing a ponytail, her face was too dark to see clearly, but her tall figure was almost not much shorter than himself, about 174 cm at a guess.
Black tight jeans on the lower body, black leather long boots on her feet.
The whole person looked heroic and extraordinary, yet because she was a woman, she exuded a feminine beauty.
This combination of masculinity and feminine beauty made Lin Tian glance at her a couple more times.
Having a few extra glances wasn’t anything special, but Lin Tian’s head instinctively lowered to glance down.
Bai Shishi, who was standing by silently watching the situation unfold, suddenly saw a magical scene.
Standing in front of the door, Lin Tian unexpectedly had a nosebleed.
That’s right, had a nosebleed at the door.
If there had been a hottie standing in front of Lin Tian, dressed provocatively, Bai Shishi could understand the nosebleed.
But what’s going on with a nosebleed at a door?
Feeling the liquid flowing from his nose, Lin Tian quickly snorted and looked at Bai Shishi, reaching out: "Miss Bai, tissue!"
Bai Shishi immediately handed over a few tissues to Lin Tian, which he stuffed into his right nostril.
"What were you thinking? Thought so much you have a nosebleed?" Bai Shishi said, unable to contain her curiosity, and asked.
"Thinking of you!" Lin Tian couldn’t tell the truth, so he half-jokingly replied.
"Go to hell!"
Bai Shishi gave Lin Tian a sidelong glance, saying grumpily: "Nothing but nonsense in your head!"
"Hey, are you really from An Guang Institute?" Lin Tian surprisingly brought up the question again.
As for the reason, earlier when he had lowered his head, he saw what he shouldn’t have and also saw what he should have.
On her waist, unexpectedly, was a black gun and a pair of handcuffs!
If she were a bad person, would there be a need for handcuffs?
"Here, this is my ID. If you don’t believe me, just take a look through the peephole on the door!" Saying this, the woman took out her ID again, aligning it with the peephole.
Lin Tian pretended to look through the peephole, but his eyes had already seen the woman’s ID outside the door.
"Chen Moxiang, belonging to the Special Operations Team of the An Guang Institute!" Lin Tian recited the words on the ID photo, and on the left corner of the ID was a beautiful one-inch photo.
Bai Shishi, hearing Lin Tian mumbling, speculated: "Is it real? With so many fake IDs these days, could it be fake?"
"I’m not sure either, but it looks like we haven’t done anything, what do they want with us?" Lin Tian whispered to Bai Shishi.
Bai Shishi gave him a look: "You ask me, who do I ask?"
Lin Tian furrowed his brow in a slight frown, then said, "Miss Bai, go hide upstairs. If you hear gunfire, call the police and also have Mei Ruyan bring people over!"
"Ah? What about you?" Bai Shishi voiced her worry.
"I’ll handle them; it’s no good just stalling like this. They may not sleep, but I need to!" Lin Tian revealed his plan.
"Alright, just be careful, and don’t get hurt!" Bai Shishi nodded; at the moment, it was all they could do.
As Bai Shishi started for the second floor, an impatient voice rang out from outside: "You have five minutes; if you still don’t open the door, my people will break down the door!"
Creak!
Just then, Lin Tian suddenly opened the door, looking at the silhouette standing before him: "Come on in!"
The silhouette froze for a moment, seemingly not expecting Lin Tian to open the door, and only then slowly stepped inside.
"Let me ask, why are your people waking us ordinary folks in the middle of the night? Or did we do something to disturb you?" Lin Tian threw a series of questions, while cautiously watching the woman before him.
For some reason, when this woman named Chen Moxiang came in, Lin Tian felt a sense of familiarity, as if they had met before.
"I’m looking for Bai Shishi!" Chen Moxiang immediately stated who she wanted to see.
"You can talk to me!" Lin Tian said directly.
"Step aside; I don’t want to talk to a hooligan like you!" Chen Moxiang replied, then quickly corrected herself: "I don’t want to talk to someone like you!"
"Hooligan?" That word sounded particularly familiar, Lin Tian squinted his eyes at Chen Moxiang.
Looking her up and down, right and left, giving her a full look.
Of course, it was a normal look!
After all, she’s right in front; if it were x-ray vision, what if he died of a nosebleed?
"Had enough of looking?" Chen Moxiang said sharply on the surface, internally panicking to death: "I hope he doesn’t notice..."
"Miss, have we met somewhere before?" Lin Tian remembered the female thief who snuck in before.
Height and build were very similar to Chen Moxiang.
Even the bust seemed the same size.
But all this was based on Lin Tian’s estimation, if measured, he would have to use his hands.
"You’re overthinking it; this is the first time I’ve seen you!" Chen Moxiang deliberately avoided Lin Tian’s gaze, speaking coldly.
"Then maybe I got it wrong!" As he said this, Lin Tian moved a little closer to Chen Moxiang.
Nose sniffed hard, that perfume scent, very familiar...
