However, after hearing the conditions that would drive anyone in the industry crazy, Chen Zhuo's face remained completely expressionless.

He gripped the walkie-talkie, his tone as calm as still water: "Join the organization? I don't like being constrained, so even if I could mobilize all the resources of Dachang City, I would refuse to join!"

The moment those words were spoken, the air in the living room seemed to freeze.

The certainty on Lin Moyu and the other man's faces froze instantly, and they stood there stunned, finding Chen Zhuo's answer utterly unbelievable.

"Chen Zhuo, won't you reconsider?"

Lin Moyu was the first to react and immediately approached Chen Zhuo, speaking urgently to persuade him.

"With your abilities, joining the branch will definitely allow you to resolve the vast majority of tricky and bizarre incidents, saving countless lives!"

Lin Moyu's tone was full of sincerity; he genuinely hoped that a strong person like Chen Zhuo could maximize his value.

Chen Zhuo ignored Lin Moyu's advice and instead changed the subject, continuing to speak into the walkie-talkie.

"While I'm reluctant to join a branch, I can cooperate with you!"

The minister on the other end of the walkie-talkie fell into a brief silence.

In fact, from the very beginning, he had not had much hope that Chen Zhuo would agree to join, so he did not intend to force him.

However, when he heard the word "cooperation," he was immediately flattered.

"Cooperation? Could you elaborate on how we could cooperate?"

The minister's voice came through, carrying a hint of urgency and anticipation.

Chen Zhuo was equally straightforward: "An equal exchange. You help me with something within my ability, and I'll help you with something within my ability!"

The minister's heart skipped a beat, and his breathing became heavy.

He suppressed his excitement and tentatively asked, "Does what you mean by 'within your power' include solving strange incidents?"

"Including!" Chen Zhuo replied calmly.

Upon hearing those two words, the minister immediately agreed: "Okay! I agree!"

In his view, this conversation should end here.

Just as he was about to disconnect and calm his excited emotions, Chen Zhuo's voice came again.

"Perfect timing, I have something I need your help with."

"What exactly is it?" the minister asked in a deep voice, regaining his composure.

Chen Zhuo slowly said, "Help me find the specific addresses of some people."

In fact, from the moment he learned of the existence of the Sealed Gate organization, he had already planned to cooperate with them.

With his abilities, searching for someone across the country, while not quite like finding a needle in a haystack, would still be extremely time-consuming.

Since the Fengmen organization was established far away, it must have a relatively complete intelligence network in various cities.

Finding out the whereabouts of several people is certainly more efficient than doing it yourself.

If you want to find out the whereabouts of a few people, they are far more efficient than you.

Now that the bizarre has become a reality, no one can guarantee where the next strange event will occur.

Who knows, one day danger might befall Brother Shi and his family.

Therefore, he must find them and protect them as quickly as possible!

Both the minister on the other end of the walkie-talkie and Lin Moyu in the living room showed curiosity after hearing Chen Zhuo's request.

They were genuinely curious about what kind of person Chen Zhuo had gone to such lengths to find.

The minister paused for a moment, then asked, "Who are you looking for?"

"The immediate family members of the five people."

Chen Zhuo's voice came through the walkie-talkie clearly, and he announced the five names word by word.

"These five people are Shi Yi, Bai Yiyi, Su Jingwei, Mu Bo, and Cheng Zixuan."

In addition, their professions include veteran, college student, designer, CEO, and programmer.

As for further information, I don't know much either.

In the bizarre game, everyone is busy surviving and won't waste time introducing specific information about their real world.

Moreover, this information is of no use in clearing the dungeon.

After saying this, Chen Zhuo added, "There's another piece of information: these five people are all missing persons from a major disappearance case five years ago!"

Upon hearing this, the other end of the walkie-talkie suddenly fell silent.

The minister's expression turned extremely solemn. He never expected that the person Chen Zhuo was looking for was actually a family member of the victim in the initial incident, just like him!

A full half minute passed before the minister finally calmed down and spoke again after a moment's thought.

"Five relatives, count as five things!"

As agreed, you need to help the branch solve five strange incidents!

"And I need you to solve the strange incidents first before I can give you their specific address!"

The minister was extremely nervous when he said those words.

He knew very well that such a request would likely anger Chen Zhuo.

However, as the head of the Dachang City branch, he must prioritize the overall situation and seek more benefits for the branch!

With Chen Zhuo's abilities, solving five bizarre incidents would be a piece of cake.

However, for the branch offices, it would require sacrificing many people to completely resolve the issue.

If Chen Zhuo solves five bizarre incidents, more members will survive and be able to deal with more bizarre incidents, thus maintaining the stability of Dachang City as much as possible.

So even at the risk of offending Chen Zhuo, he had to try.

Of course, he also knew that these people were of extraordinary significance to Chen Zhuo.

If anything goes wrong with these people, Chen Zhuo and the organization will become sworn enemies.

So at the end, he added a sentence: "The organization will find them as quickly as possible and send people to protect them."

Chen Zhuo held the walkie-talkie and fell silent.

Everyone present held their breath and dared not make a sound.

After a moment, Chen Zhuo finally spoke, his voice exceptionally cold: "Fine, I agree."

The moment he finished speaking, his tone suddenly became sharp.

"But I warn you, if anything happens to these people, I will stop at nothing to make you pay a heavy price!"

An intense, almost tangible killing intent instantly swept through the entire living room.

Lin Moyu and Shen Wan's expressions changed drastically, as if the blood in their bodies had been frozen.

Even the minister, who was on the other end of the walkie-talkie, felt his heart skip a beat and his back instantly broke out in a cold sweat.

The minister swallowed hard, his tone extremely solemn.

"Don't worry! As the branch manager, I promise you I will do everything in my power to protect them!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Zhuo's murderous aura dissipated like a tide, and his tone returned to normal: "Are there any strange incidents that require my attention right now?"

"Wait a moment," the minister replied immediately.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of papers turning over came from the other end of the walkie-talkie.

A few minutes later, the minister's voice came again: "There's a strange incident going on, and we haven't been able to solve it yet."
