Chapter 034: You Have Quite the Nerve

获得主角能力的我只想过平凡生活 · 第034章 你脸真大

Yazi and Chunli exchanged a glance and sighed in unison.

"To tell you the truth, this criminal organization is too mysterious. We once sent people to follow Taishan, hoping to find his upstream contacts and the route for picking up goods, but we failed."

"Failed?"

"Yes." Although unwilling to admit it, Ya Zi still nodded.

Wang Bo said bluntly, "In other words, you guys are too lousy, you can't even succeed in tailing Taishan, right?"

The corners of Yazi and Chunli's mouths twitched slightly.

Chunli said, "There's likely an expert helping Taishan, which is why he can easily shake off our tail. That expert is probably Taishan's supplier."

Wang Bo said dismissively, "Since the tailing failed, can't you try another method? For example, have the police pretend to be criminals and go to Taishan to buy drugs, then dig out his supplier from his mouth. Trust me, that guy is easy to fool."

"Didn't you say you didn't know him?"

“That’s right.” Wang Bo nodded.

"Then how do you know he's easy to fool?"

Wang Bo calmly pointed at the person in the photo and said, 'Look at his stupid expression—you can tell he's the kind of fool who would help count the money after being sold.'

Yazi: ...

Chun-Li: ...

Yazi took a deep breath and said, "Actually, we've tried the method you mentioned before, but it didn't work well. Taishan is the opposite of what you said—he's tight-lipped. We didn't get any useful information out of him."

Wang Bo looked astonished. Tai Shan's lips were sealed? No way.

In Wanming's memory, this guy was just a shorty who was lazy, gluttonous, unambitious, and fond of petty calculations.

Wang Bo couldn't help but complain inwardly, 'Are you talking about the same Taishan as the one I know?'

"In short, we need your help now." Yazi looked at Wang Bo sincerely.

"Sorry, I can't help you." Wang Bocai couldn't be bothered to wade into this muddy water; he had no intention of letting a drug trafficking gang disrupt his ordinary life.

"This is your police work, not my job."

Wang Bo was the kind of typical slacker who could live happily through life as long as he himself was doing well. Perhaps he would be overcome with sympathy and lend a helping hand to those in need who appeared before him.

But he would never worry about refugees far away in Africa.

After all, he was not saintly enough to reach that level; he was just an ordinary person. Although Yako and Chunli had reached out to Wang Bo for help, couldn't the police really handle this matter?

That's not necessarily true.

Yazi saw that Wang Bo absolutely refused, and with a roll of her eyes, she suddenly thought of a good idea. She gave Chunli a meaningful look and said, 'Chunli, I remember you bought a very nice swimsuit a few days ago, right?'

“No, I didn’t.” Chunli was completely baffled and shook her head repeatedly. She had been terribly busy the past few days; how could she have had time to buy a swimsuit?

Yazi: "..."

Wang Bo couldn't help but burst out laughing, as if he had guessed what Yazi was up to. It was just a simple honey trap — would he fall for it?

"If you're willing to help, Chun-Li and I will change into swimsuits and spend a pleasant day with you at Repulse Bay Beach." Yazi, seeing that Wang Bo seemed to have seen through her plan, simply threw out the condition.

Chun-Li's face flushed, but she did not object.

Wang Bo sneered a few times and immediately extended his hand: "Deal!"

Though it was a honey trap, Wang Bo indicated that he was willing to take the bait; being able to have two beauties play with him on the beach was also a kind of victory.

If such opportunities came more often, Wang Bo expressed confidence that he could win the hearts of the two women.

After all, the fact that the two women were willing to dress up and go out with him showed that they didn't actually dislike him.

This is already a great improvement.

"But I have one more condition."

"Don't go too far," Yazi said through gritted teeth.

"I have a few tickets to Ma You's concert here. Would you like to go see Ma You's concert with me?" Wang Bo pulled a few tickets out of his pocket and shook them.

"Ma You, who's that?" Yazi indicated that she had no idea who that was.

He's that internationally renowned musician—a famous musical prodigy who passed piano grade nine at eight, entered a world-famous music university at twelve, and won an international award at twenty.

Chunli explained on the side, as if she was very familiar with Ma You.

"So this man is very impressive, then."

“He really is formidable, and also…” Chunli glanced at Wang Bo, hesitating as if she wanted to say more.

"What?" Yazi asked.

"Ma You looks exactly like Wan Mingchang."

"No way."

Wang Bo tapped the table and said, "Actually, the two of us don't look alike, but the Wanming I'm replacing is Ma You's twin, so to you, we look exactly the same. In reality, however, we are completely different—two entirely distinct people."

Yazi said, 'Do you have his ticket?'

"That's right."

"Deal." Yazi agreed without hesitation. "It's just watching a concert, no problem. It just so happens that I haven't been to a concert in a long time. Since Ma You is so amazing, of course I won't miss this opportunity."

Chunli nodded, not objecting, as she was also quite interested in this.

"Alright, then it's settled." Seeing the two women agree, Wang Bo patted his chest and assured them, "Leave your matters to me."

"Alright, call Taishan right now." Yazi urged immediately.

Wang Bo: ...

"Alright, since things have been settled and the employer insists, Wang Bo couldn't very well object. He simply took out his phone and made a call to Tianshan."

How unpredictable the world is—he never imagined that one day he would actually be calling Mount Tai.

Before long, the call connected, and Tai Shan's voice came through the phone, "Hello, who is this?"

"Taishan, it's me."

"I don't know you." Taishan hung up the phone without hesitation.

Wang Bo: ...

Hey, this guy is getting cocky. Wang Bo suppressed the urge to curse and called Taishan again. When the call connected, Wang Bo immediately identified himself: "Taishan, it's Wanming."

“Desperate? Who’s Desperate?” Taishan’s pretentious voice came through the phone.

Wang Bo raised an eyebrow, wanting to hang up the phone, but for the sake of traveling with the two women, he held back. "An old friend of yours."

Taishan couldn't help but laugh loudly, "Friend? I don't have a friend like you who steals other people's girlfriends."

Wang Bo knew that Taishan was referring to Barbara, but the problem was that Barbara was never your girlfriend from start to finish. You don't even know Barbara, yet you dare to claim she's your girlfriend.

You have a lot of nerve. Who do you think you are?
