Chapter 561 Credentials

"Night Watchman?" The leading man frowned slightly, clutching the documents tightly. "I don't know what you're talking about. The police down the mountain lent me these."

"But since you recognize the documents, you should know I'm telling the truth." The man continued, "Come down the mountain with us and accept our investigation."

"Listen to an old man's advice, that Jin Gou Gou (gold ditch) is haunted. It's for your own good that they don't want you to go. It's swallowed countless people over the years," said an old man with a scar on his forehead, speaking with a thick accent.

Time was of the essence, and going down the mountain with them was impossible. After all, no one could be sure how many people would be taken away by that train after one night.

But according to their meaning, the Night Watchmen were guarding the foot of the mountain. If they clashed with them here, it would likely cause trouble.

Just then, Luo He pulled out a notebook from his pocket, held it up, and said, "Leave immediately. I'm responsible for what happens here. Don't interfere with us."

It was the same kind of document as the one in the man's hand, but it looked more advanced, with a pair of deep red wings painted next to the golden emblem.

"You're the people the police sent to solve the problem?" the leading man asked in surprise.

"We will solve the matter of the Grey Stone Town mine tunnel. You guard the entrance to the mountain and don't let anyone else interfere with us." Luo He's aura was strong. During the eye contact, more than half of the townspeople surrounding them believed that they were indeed sent by the police.

"I understand." The man nodded, reminding them, "There's something strange in the Grey Stone Mountain tunnel, it's very dangerous, you must be careful."

"Also, your documents... can I keep them here for now? I need to take them down the mountain and report to the police." The man calculated silently. If it was a trick, then the other party would find a reason to refuse.

"Of course." Luo He handed the documents to the leading man.

In fact, after getting the documents, the man was already sure that the other party was real, because the texture of the documents was very special.

By comparison, the origin of the two documents should be the same.

Moreover, the documents that Luo He handed over were even more exquisite in the details of the workmanship than the one in his hand. Looking at the pair of deep red wings for a long time, they seemed to come alive.

Night Watchman...

Jiang Cheng and the others inadvertently focused their attention on Luo He. Although they had guessed early on that the Night Watchman was involved, sending a scholarly man and a violent loli was somewhat unexpected.

Hearing Luo He blurt out his identity, Huai Yi nervously swallowed.

This was getting interesting. Shen Hong (Deep Red) and the Night Watchman had collided.

Fortunately, there were only two of them. They had at least three formal Shen Hong on their side. Even if they fought, their side would have a higher chance of winning.

But if Luo He and the other both died on the mission, it would be hard to guarantee that the Night Watchman wouldn't investigate. Once their identities were exposed, it would be bad news if they attracted the Night Watchman's encirclement and suppression.

"By the way." The man put away the documents, as if suddenly thinking of something, "The person who came with you also went into the mountain and has been caught by us."

"Who are you talking about?"

"The one who was driving." The man was a little surprised and blinked, "Don't you know him? He said his name was Pi Ruan."

Hearing this, Jiang Cheng said, "Where is he?"

"He's in the back mountain. I'll take you to find him."

After dismissing most of the people, the man led Jiang Cheng and his party to the back mountain. After walking for about 10 minutes, they found another tent behind a large rock.

But after opening the tent, they found that inside were two men who had been knocked unconscious and tied together, with cloths stuffed in their mouths.

"Where's the person?" Fatty looked at the leading man.

Seeing the scene in front of him, the man panicked, "He was in the tent before. I even left a few people to watch him."

"Was he rescued?" The man looked at everyone with questioning eyes, seemingly asking if there were any other companions who had entered the mountain.

"No, it's just us." Jiang Cheng lowered his body to observe the two unconscious men. Their hands and feet were tied up.

When he saw the rope binding the two, Chen Qiang immediately squatted down and said after a moment, "The person who knocked them unconscious and hijacked Pi Ruan is very experienced. The knot-tying technique is very professional."

At this moment, they heard rustling sounds in the bushes behind them, as if some animal was hiding there.

One of the men who came with them walked up with a pitchfork. Unexpectedly, a person jumped out from inside, "Don't move!"

Pi Ruan looked panicked, holding a dagger in one hand and grabbing a child with the other, the dagger pointing at the child's throat, obviously using him as a hostage.

Fatty immediately recognized that this boy was the one he had given beef jerky to before entering the mountain.

"Doctor Jiang!" Seeing Jiang Cheng and the others, Pi Ruan was so excited that tears were about to come out. "Boss Lin, Brother Fugui, it's so good to see you again. I thought I was going to die."

After explaining, Pi Ruan released the hostage. The little boy immediately cried and ran behind the man, scared out of his wits.

"What are you doing here?" Jiang Cheng's face was not very good.

Pi Ruan squatted on the ground and carefully swallowed. "Doctor Jiang, don't be angry, I was just curious." He showed a sly expression and whispered, "When I came, I checked. This Grey Stone Town is a remote place. What could be worth Doctor Jiang coming here in person? Later, I found out that there's a gold mine in this mountain."

"I just thought you might have some big business to make a fortune." Pi Ruan said embarrassedly, "Doctor Jiang, you also know that although I still hold the title of chairman of the company, after falling out with Xue Jinhua, the people in the company don't recognize me anymore."

"I was just thinking about whether there were other businesses to make money. We've known each other for so long. If there's business, you can bring me along, okay?" Pi Ruan looked at Jiang Cheng with a very pitiful look.

Now it seemed that Pi Ruan didn't leave, but parked the car outside the town and quietly sneaked back. It was just unfortunate that he was caught by the townspeople after entering the mountain.

"So you're saying you knocked out the two people inside?" Fatty looked at Pi Ruan in surprise. "I didn't see that, Brother Pi Ruan, your combat power under the bed is also very strong!"

Hearing this, Pi Ruan said with a sad face, "Where is it? I was so scared. Fortunately, they relaxed their vigilance, and I used a stone to sneak attack and knock one down. When the other one came, I also ambushed him."

Hearing this, Jiang Cheng frowned. He knew Pi Ruan's combat power. He was the type who would mainly rely on pulling and shoving even if he fought with an old lady in the farmer's market.

It seemed that the power that people could unleash in life-and-death situations should not be underestimated.

"It's really unusual for a big boss to master such knot-tying techniques." Chen Qiang stood behind Jiang Cheng and said meaningfully.

"Hehe, I specifically learned this." Pi Ruan turned his head and said with pride, "Chen Qiang, you're still young, you don't understand some of the hobbies of rich women."
