Chapter 208 Baiting the Hook

As Wang Shan was thinking this, Dr. Sim happened to call.

As soon as the call was connected, Dr. Sim said excitedly in his not-so-fluent Xia country language.

"Hahaha... Good news, Mr. Wang! Just now, we have successfully created an S-class esper!"

"Really?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Shan, in disbelief, asked for confirmation again, "Doctor, are you telling the truth?"

The doctor, full of smiles, replied, "Yes, of course it's true! And, if it weren't for a tiny little error in the data during the modification process, we would have most likely obtained a mutated S-class esper! If you don't believe me, you can come to the base yourself to see!"

Seeing Dr. Sim speak so confidently, Wang Shan finally became completely convinced of the news, and his mood instantly shifted from dejected to excited.

"That's great! It's truly wonderful! Although it's a pity that the S-class esper wasn't mutated, this is enough to be a reassurance for me, Wang. Doctor, you are truly amazing! Haha..."

Qi Shan had already been confirmed dead by the Zhao family, and the Zhao family should not send new cultivators for support in the short term.

Therefore, for Wang Shan, the current situation was almost like facing wolves in front and tigers behind, caught in a dilemma.

At this critical juncture, the S-class esper modified by Dr. Sim could indeed be considered to have opened a new escape route for Wang Shan.

However,

Wang Shan also knew clearly that the strength of an S-class esper could only be comparable to a cultivator who had practiced martial arts in the Foundation Establishment mid-stage.

Although for him, who was at a disadvantage everywhere, it was an unexpected trump card.

But for the cultivator from the Tang family in Xingcheng, whom the Zhao family mentioned was hidden in Yuecheng and could easily kill Qi Shan, such an S-class esper was still somewhat insufficient.

Thinking of these, Wang Shan's mood once again sank. He said dejectedly.

"To be honest, Doctor. Given the current situation, one S-class esper might not be enough to meet my needs. If possible, I would trouble you to work harder and modify more advanced espers!"

Dr. Sim looked a bit troubled upon hearing this.

"This... Based on the current experimental data, we are only confident in modifying a mutated S-class esper at most. If we want to surpass S-class and reach SS-class, then... the gamble is too high!"

After listening, Wang Shan thought carefully for a long time, and then said to Dr. Sim.

"How about this, Doctor! I will come over personally tonight. We can meet and discuss if there are any better plans. What do you think?"

Dr. Sim replied without hesitation.

"No problem, I await your arrival at any time!"

At the same time,

Inside the Special Investigation Bureau on the other side.

After teaching Cao Xuerong the cultivation technique suitable for her, Han Lang voluntarily came here.

He wanted to inquire about the interrogation of Jin Chunfeng.

But as soon as he spoke, Tang Qin and Tang Geng immediately looked resentful.

"Alas, don't mention it. In my opinion, this Jin Chunfeng is not human at all!"

"Not human?" Han Lang was a little surprised. "What do you mean? Is he also a cultivator?"

Tang Geng quickly explained, "Tang Qin doesn't mean that! She means that Jin Chunfeng's willpower is simply beyond what a human can possess! Look, for the past few days, Tang Qin and I have been interrogating Jin Chunfeng almost non-stop. Up to now, our temperaments have been worn out, and he hasn't uttered a single useful word. Tell me, can this be considered human?"

Hearing their narration, and looking at their dark purple panda eyes, Han Lang's expression also became solemn. He asked worriedly.

"If we can't get any information from Jin Chunfeng, then our clues about espers will be almost entirely cut off! What should we do next?"

Tang Geng thought for a moment, but quickly shook his head and said helplessly, "There's no way. Unless that so-called Dr. Sim can come out on his own, we really can't catch him."

What was said without intention was heard by the interested.

A flash of inspiration suddenly struck Han Lang. He quickly grabbed Tang Geng and asked, "What did you just say?"

Tang Geng looked confused and hesitantly replied, "I said... there's no way, we can't catch him!"

Han Lang immediately denied, "No, it's not that sentence."

Tang Geng carefully recalled and tentatively asked, "Is it... the sentence about letting Dr. Sim come out on his own?"

Upon hearing this, Han Lang did not answer Tang Geng's question at all, but repeatedly murmured the phrase "come out on his own!" in his mouth.

Suddenly,

He slapped his thigh hard and exclaimed with great joy, "That's right! We can find a way to make them come out themselves!"

Tang Qin and Tang Geng were completely confused by him and both asked.

"You mean to let Dr. Sim come out himself? This seems even more difficult than getting Jin Chunfeng to speak?"

Han Lang shook his head and quickly denied, "No! This is not difficult. However, if we want to fish, we have to bait the hook!"

Tang Qin and the two could understand that Han Lang meant fishing for Dr. Sim, but who was the bait?

So they quickly asked, "Explain it in detail, what exactly does this mean?"

Seeing their confused expressions, Han Lang smiled smugly and then asked back.

"Do you still remember how Gou Feng died back then?"

Tang Qin replied without hesitation, "Of course! On the way to Xingcheng for trial, he was silenced by the D-class esper under Dr. Sim!"

Before she finished speaking, Tang Qin and Tang Geng also seemed to have thought of something and exclaimed in surprise.

"You want to use Jin Chunfeng as bait?"

Han Lang nodded.

"Anyway, we can't get anything out of Jin Chunfeng. It's not a good idea for him to stay in the Special Investigation Bureau all the time. Since he has to be sent to Xingcheng sooner or later, why not take this opportunity to try. If Dr. Sim still wants to eliminate all traces, he will definitely deal with Jin Chunfeng like he dealt with Gou Feng. At that time, we can find a way to plant a tracker on the assassin esper, and then it will be natural to find Dr. Sim?"

After listening to Han Lang's complete plan, Tang Qin and Tang Geng both exclaimed "Great idea."

However, Tang Qin still said worriedly, "I have no objection to doing this. However, Jin Chunfeng is now a convicted criminal. Before he is tried, he cannot have any accidents like Gou Feng!"

Upon hearing this, Tang Geng immediately patted his chest and affirmed, "This is absolutely no problem! When escorting, I will disguise myself and blend into the escort team, and then I can guarantee Jin Chunfeng's safety!"

Han Lang also agreed, "I think Tang Geng's plan is feasible! Then Tang Geng will be responsible for implanting the tracker. We will follow behind and track them immediately, and we will definitely gain something!"

Hearing their words, Tang Qin finally felt relieved.

"Alright! To ensure that Dr. Sim takes action, I can arrange for people to release the news in the next two days, letting them know our route and plan. So that the fish will take the bait!"

Han Lang and Tang Geng's eyes shone with brilliance.

"Exactly! Then let's try our best, and see if a long line can catch a big fish!"

"Haha..."
