I'm really not the god of time.

Chapter 91: Trading Three Items with Duan Ying

After transforming, Zhang Lingyun said:

"You stay here and keep watch, I'm going in."

Zhang Lingyun walked into the dungeon and tore off Duan Ying's hood.

Duan Ying shook his head, and the dizziness gradually subsided, allowing him to gradually adapt to his surroundings.

He looked at the handsome middle-aged man in front of him with a puzzled expression and asked:

"Who are you?"

Zhang Lingyun smiled and said:

"I am a fraudster."

Duan Ying was stunned for a moment before she realized what was happening:

"Are you kidding me? Con artists haven't been around for years."

Zhang Lingyun smiled:

"I'm out now, aren't I?"

"What are you doing here?"

"The fraudster can go wherever he wants."

"What do you want to do?"

"I want to make a deal with you."

"Do you think I'm stupid enough to do business with a fraudster?"

"Don't worry, I'm not lying this time."

Duan Ying suddenly laughed and said:

"I'm suddenly starting to believe that you are the conman himself. Because you really don't tell the truth in a single word."

Zhang Lingyun also laughed.

His smile exudes boundless friendliness and naturally releases a captivating charm.

He made his opponent lower their guard unintentionally and start to listen to his reasoning.

This is the true skill of a con artist.

Even though Zhang Lingyun isn't from the "School of Enchantment," he can naturally unleash his charm simply by using his identity as a con artist.

Duan Ying was indeed caught off guard; the expression on his face relaxed, and he asked:

"What kind of deal do you want to make with me?"

Zhang Lingyun asked slowly and deliberately:

What do you want most right now?

Duan Ying shook the handcuffs and said:

"Of course I want freedom."

Zhang Lingyun nodded:

"I can help you do that, but you'll have to pay a price."

"I'll give you the money."

"I don't need money."

"So what do you want?"

"You majored in the Illusion School, right? Then I want your twenty years of experience in the Illusion School."

Duan Ying paused for a moment:

"What are you talking about? How could something like this be traded?"

Zhang Lingyun extended one finger and gently waved it:

"I haven't finished yet. I also need your [Ghost Hound] spell."

"You're getting more and more absurd. Even if I gave you the card, you wouldn't be able to use it."

"Don't interrupt me. Finally, I want your memory of meeting me."

Duan Ying was lost in confusion:

"Are you really a fraudster? What is your purpose in doing this?"

You should know that this kind of abstract thing is impossible to deliver, right?

Zhang Lingyun smiled and said:

"You don't need to worry about how the deal is made; you just need to nod in agreement. These three things in exchange for your life—isn't that perfectly fair?"

Under Zhang Lingyun's elegant smile, Duan Ying gradually developed trust.

He finally lowered his guard and said:

"If that's the case, then I think we can close the deal."

As he said this, he fell into a state of confusion.

The three pieces of memory in my mind were like puzzle pieces, pried out by an invisible hand.

The moment Zhang Lingyun gained the experience, magic, and memories, he knew the deal was done.

He quickly transformed back to his original form.

Duan Ying snapped out of her daze and looked at Zhang Lingyun with some confusion, wondering what would happen next.

Zhang Lingyun, of course, kept his promise and immediately removed the shackles from his hands.

"You can leave now."

Duan Ying paused for a moment:

"Is that all? Don't you want money?"

Zhang Lingyun really wanted it, but he couldn't break the deal.

The deal clearly states that Duan Ying can gain freedom by paying three prices.

Zhang Lingyun cursed:

"Get out of here."

Duan Ying suddenly burst into laughter.

He did not know the specific reason for his release.

Zhang Lingyun finally became afraid, thinking that perhaps his backing was too strong.

Then this guy, very ostentatiously, walked through the service hall and out the door in full view of everyone.

At that very moment—

Yu Li, the branch manager of Dongxing City, had just returned from running errands.

When he brushed past Duan Ying, both of them were slightly stunned.

Then, they quickly pretended nothing had happened and hurried away.

Although this scene only lasted for a moment, Zhang Lingyun and Su Wanqing, who were standing in front of the monitoring screen, captured it precisely.

Actually, when Zhang Lingyun let Duan Ying leave, he had Su Wanqing keep an eye on him the whole way.

They originally wanted to see where Duan Ying would go after she left.

The encounter with Yu Li was an unexpected bonus.

Zhang Lingyun clicked his tongue and asked:

"Minister Su, what do you think? I originally thought it was just a small fry, but I didn't expect the Dongxing branch to have such a big fish."

Out of professional ethics, Su Wanqing reminded her:

"We can't be completely sure yet; maybe it was just a coincidence."

"That's right! But if he really is the mole, what would you choose, Senior Su?"

Zhang Lingyun did not address Su Wanqing by her official title, but instead deliberately used a more intimate way of addressing her.

Su Wanqing was also very intelligent and knew that she should make her position clear.

"Junior, you are Senior Sister Lan's apprentice, of course I will support you."

Furthermore, I've always had a falling out with Minister Yu, and if it's confirmed that he's the mole, I'm willing to personally deal with him.

Zhang Lingyun smiled and said:

"Then, the Dongxing branch will be short of a department head, and I will recommend Senior Su to my master."

Su Wanqing met his gaze.

The two of them smiled knowingly.

Ding Shuangshuang watched this scene from the side and felt that every woman was like a vixen, only she was the only one who was naive.

Yu Li entered the office, immediately locked the door, and then hurriedly made a phone call.

***

Chen Xiaoya has been having a lot of bad luck lately.

Last night, I finally mustered up the courage to try and deepen my relationship with my cousin, only to find another woman in his room.

This morning, when she was getting ready for her job interview, she was suddenly stopped by staff at the subway security checkpoint.

Then, inexplicably, she was taken to an office.

The bright light from the table lamp shone directly into her eyes, immediately startling her.

Then the middle-aged man opposite him took out a stun gun and threw it on the table with a bang.

Chen Xiaoya couldn't help but exclaim:

"Who are you? What do you want?"

Zheng Yu laughed:

"We found the prohibited substance 'Angel Drug' in your bag. How do you explain that?"

Chen Xiaoya was taken aback:

"Impossible! This isn't mine!"

Zheng Yu pressed the switch on the stun gun, and a bright blue high-voltage arc was emitted from its tip.

"I think you don't want to tell the truth."

Chen Xiaoya is a female college student.

Having studied at school for over a decade, where have I ever seen anything like this?

"What do you want me to explain? I'm truly innocent! I have a research institute interview today, please let me go!"

Zheng Yu laughed.

I thought to myself, this kind of female college student is really naive.

He cleared his throat and said:

"Considering you're still a student, we can make an exception for you."

"Really? Thank you!"

"Hehe! Of course it's true. Just sign this document and you can leave."
