You've become the warden, and you're telling me I'm an undercover agent?

Chapter 156 Two people who look similar to Chi Ping

The next morning, while Kaiyun Mountain was still reeling from the death of the old emperor and Jerome, Chi Ping and Wei San had already boarded the train back to Star City.

The topography of the SND area and Star City was very different. When the scenery outside the car changed from the rocky karst landform to the relatively soft earthen hills, Chi Ping knew that Star City was not far away.

As soon as I got off the car, I was hit by another familiar wave of heat, like stepping into a steamer.

Mang met him at the exit. She was wearing a sun hat and waved to Chi Ping from a distance.

When he got closer, Chi Ping found that she was not wearing glasses, but had changed into colored contact lenses, which made her look much brighter.

Chi Ping put his luggage into the trunk, and when he got in the car, he realized there was another person in the car—

Le Bai was sitting in the passenger seat, slurping on a popsicle. When he saw Chi Ping coming up, he extended his hand to greet him:

"Hey, Ikehira, it's hot as hell in Star City, isn't it?"

She had always followed the village chief in calling Chi Ping the warden, but later when she moved in with Mang, she followed Mang in calling him Chi Ping as well.

"Yes." Chi Ping took the tissue that Mang handed over and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Shannan is much cooler than Xingcheng."

Wei San sat next to Chi Ping while Mang drove. She told Chi Ping that after Le Bai's personality gradually covered He Ku, he gradually mastered some of He Ku's abilities and was able to absorb the life force of other creatures.

Hearing this, Le Bai shook his head like a rattle: "That's not good. I want to vomit."

Chi Ping only realized after Mang explained that after Le Bai absorbed his life force, he would feel nauseous and want to vomit, as if he had eaten raw meat.

It should be a side effect brought about by the change in ability. Once the degree of personality coverage is high, it will disappear.

During the time that Chi Ping was away, Huo Ba and Li Youfu were the busiest.

Whenever the higher-ups came to inspect the prison, Li Youfu would disguise himself as Chi Ping or Wei San, switching back and forth, and sometimes even play himself.

Huoba also began to learn some prison management knowledge from Yu Yun, but the effect was not great. Sometimes even someone as good-tempered as Yu Yun would get so angry that his face turned pale.

After Wei San's sweep of the Xingcheng gangs, things became much quieter. Many of the new gangs that had emerged became much more restrained.

Some gangsters even report to the prison boss every now and then, confusing the prison guards. Several groups have been sent out.

The number of superpower crimes in Star City has also begun to decrease, after all, there is already a legend of the executioner here.

After the group returned to their respective residences, they rested for a while. In the afternoon, Chi Ping made an appointment with Mang to go together to find the former orphanage director.

It is worth mentioning that Wei San had no place to live, and he was still a prisoner in official records at this time.

So Chi Ping asked Wei San to live with him first. After his adoptive parents passed away, Chi Ping had lived alone in the old three-bedroom, one-living-room house. Sometimes, when he came home from get off work and opened the door, he would only see the slanting sunset inside the house, and the whole house was particularly deserted.

Chi Ping did not bring Wei San this time, as the latter also had his own friends and social circles.

When Chi Ping arrived at the agreed location empty-handed, Mang was already waiting there with two cartons of milk and some health wine.

She was very thoughtful. After all, the dean was half of Chi Ping's elder, so she had to bring some gifts when asking for something.

"Does the old dean drink?" Chi Ping asked.

"She drinks. I've asked her neighbors." Mang nodded.

The dean still lives in an old residential building without an elevator.

Chi Ping knocked on the door for a long time before the old dean finally opened it. She was cooking, and the kitchen was filled with smoke. As he approached her house, he could smell the smell of smoke coming out through the exhaust fan.

When she saw Chi Ping and Mang, she was visibly stunned. It was not until Mang explained his purpose that a smile appeared on her face.

She called out "Xiao Chi" and invited the two of them to sit down in the room.

After the old director retired, he gained weight and had more flesh on his face, which was not as sharp as when he was young.

The young director wasn't particularly good-tempered, after all, he had to look after dozens of orphaned children. Chi Ping's life wasn't particularly good until he was eight, but because of the orphanage, it wasn't particularly bad.

Seeing Chi Ping coming, the old dean made two more dishes.

While eating, Chi Ping talked about his life experience.

"Auntie, do you remember how I was sent to the orphanage?" Chi Ping asked. As people age, their sense of taste gradually deteriorates, so the food the old director cooked is a bit salty. The old director thought for a moment and said, "It was a man who sent you here. You were less than a year old at that time."

"What did that man look like? Do you remember?" Chi Ping asked.

The old director said without hesitation this time: "He was a very strong man. I remember he entered the orphanage at two or three in the morning. The orphanage was locked and you were crying.

"He took the entire iron gate down with one hand. I happened to see it at the time and was shocked, so it left a deep impression on me.

"He looks——"

The old dean paused, glanced at Chi Ping, and continued, "He looks a lot like you."

"Looks like me?" Chi Ping was surprised.

"Wait a moment." The old dean stood up and rummaged through the drawers in the bedroom. When he came out, he was holding a yellowed photo and some baby clothes.

"This is what you brought when you came." The old dean spread out his hands. The yellowed photo in his hand showed a man in his thirties with sharp features and a piercing gaze.

"The photo was in your pocket at the time." The old dean added, "He handed you over to me and ran away. He was still covered in blood."

"Then why do you think he is a very powerful person with special abilities?" Chi Ping asked. Although ordinary people have little exposure to the concept of people with special abilities, they still know a thing or two about it.

"He took down that huge iron gate with just one hand, and it snapped. Isn't that impressive?"

Chi Ping covered his face. The power of ordinary people and the power of espers were not the same. Breaking down a door with one hand was something that a C-level or even a D-level esper could do.

"Did he tell me anything else?" Chi Ping asked again.

The old dean shook his head, then nodded: "He said he would come back to see you later, but you see——"

The old dean didn't say the rest of the words, but Chi Ping already knew what he meant.

After thanking the old dean, Chi Ping stuffed another two thousand federal coins behind her sofa before turning around and leaving with Mang.

I thought I would call the old dean after the people left.

The old director always welcomed visits from others. When she was young, she had taken care of dozens or even hundreds of children, but when she got old, her children were no longer around.

What she did most often was to move a bench, sit in the garden of the community, bask in the sun, and waste her remaining years.

You can stare quietly in one direction for a long time without moving.

But today, she didn't go downstairs as usual.

Instead, he closed the doors and windows, drew the curtains, and sat on the sofa, waiting quietly.

About half an hour later, a man suddenly appeared in the room.

He looks about 50% similar to Chi Ping, but he is a little younger than in the photo, about the same age as Chi Ping.

"Did you give him everything?" the man asked.

The old dean nodded and asked, "What about my daughter?"

"Your daughter is safe." The man smiled and bowed slightly. "I never had any ill will towards you."

"But why would you do that?"

Before the old man could reply, a familiar voice echoed in the room.

It was Chi Ping who had left just half an hour ago. While the two sides were eating, the old dean talked about Chi Ping's life experience, and Mang kept patting Chi Ping's arm.

So, Chi Ping made a surprise counterattack and there was indeed a surprise.
