Chapter 3 The Beginning of the Plan

Back at Hubbard's residence, Fang Tian took a good shower, and then sat on the sofa, watching TV with great interest.

Fang Tian expressed his interest in this childhood memory.

Hubbard changed into clean clothes and came out of the room. When he saw Fang Tian on the sofa, he said, "It's almost time. Are you ready?"

"Ready." Fang Tian stood up from the sofa and walked to a relatively empty place in the hall of the room.

Hubbard licked his lips, took out a wooden stick from behind, stretched out his hand and twisted his neck, "Speaking of which, I have never really seen you do it, tell me how strong you are gone?"

"Passed the LV: 5 assessment three years ago." Fang Tian said.

"Not bad, you are indeed the apprentice of that lunatic, so how is your assassin training going?"

While speaking, Hubbard twisted his waist in place, stretched his legs, and did warm-up exercises.

"Except for the final killing training, everything else has been completed."

"Assassin training and killing training, it's best not to complete it."

"My master said the same thing, he said that my age is not suitable..."

Just halfway through Fang Tian's speech, Hubbard, who was doing stretching exercises on the spot, suddenly rushed towards him and shouted at the same time: "Stinky boy, you are still distracted during the fight! Take the move!"

While speaking, Hubbard vigorously waved the wooden stick in the air, and swung it in the direction of Fang Tian.

The wooden stick roared in, making a sound of breaking through the air.

Fang Tian raised his eyebrows and stepped back a few steps as the stick approached him. At the same time, a short dagger appeared in his palm.

The distance between the two sides is several steps.

Hubbard didn't chase after him, but made a fancy move in the air with a wooden stick, and praised: "Not bad, brat, I didn't realize that your skills are good!"

"Uncle Hubbard, your movements are too stiff, try to relax your shoulders, and try not to leave the center line when attacking, as your opening will be very big, and revealing your attacking intention so early will... "

"Idiot! Don't talk to me in the tone of your master!"

……

In the middle of the night, the cell phone rang without warning in the room.

Oops, forgot to mute!

Tang Ran woke up from the dream immediately, he immediately picked up the phone next to the bed and pressed the mute button.

He was still a step too late, and his wife Lin Qiao, who was sleeping next to him, was woken up by the phone call.

Lin Qiao rubbed her sleepy eyes, and said worriedly, "It's so late, who will be calling?"

"I don't know, maybe there is something urgent." Tang Ran smiled apologetically, "I'm really sorry to wake you up."

"It's okay, pick it up quickly, don't delay work."

Tang Ran glanced at the caller ID and suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart. It was so late, and if it wasn't something urgent, this old friend wouldn't call.

"Hello? Lao Xue, what happened?"

A delighted voice came from the other end of the phone, "Old Tang, I have good news for you. The child has been found!"

"What did you say? The child was found?"

Tang Ran was slightly taken aback, he was stunned for half a minute.

It was as if fate was playing a joke on him. After searching for more than ten years, when he was about to convince himself to give up, he actually found it?

When he came back to his senses, Tang Ran's hand holding the phone trembled slightly, and he asked, "Where are you now?"

"Public Security Bureau, Chengxi Branch, this child seems to have suffered a lot, come and have a look!"

Tang Ran hung up the phone.

"What's the matter? Did the child find it?" Apparently, Lin Qiao who was beside him heard the phone call.

"Old Xue said that the child was found, I'll go and have a look now."

"Put on more clothes, it's cold at night." Lin Qiao also got out of bed, and she helped Tang Ran take out a stack of clothes from the closet, "It's been so many years, it's good to find it, it can cure your heart disease for so many years .”

Tang Ran suddenly turned around and held Lin Qiao's hands, "Then about the child?"

Lin Qiao smiled sweetly, "We agreed at the beginning, let him live at home, we have a daughter, and we still need a son, don't we?"

"Thank you."

"Thank you so much, it's like an outsider, you hurry up and bring the child back to me, I'll go up and tidy up the room above, that room has been prepared for so many years, and today I can finally Use it."

It no longer matters who was right or wrong about what happened back then. The most important thing is that since the death of his old friend's wife, the child has not been found. This has been Tang Ran's worry for many years.

Tang Ran hailed a taxi and rushed to the police station in the west of the city.

What will happen next?What will happen to that child?Where has he been all these years?Will he go down the same wrong path as his father?

After so many years of ups and downs, even facing the most vicious prisoners, he has never been so nervous.

His thoughts were fleeting, Tang Ran got out of the car, he straightened his collar, no matter what the child became, he was confident that he could teach him well again!

Entering the lobby of the police station, Tang Ran saw that old friend talking to a group of police officers wearing hats.

Seeing Tang Ran at the gate, Xue Quan waved to him.

Tang Ran strode up and asked anxiously, "Old Xue, where is the child?"

"The child is safe now, but there are some things I need to tell you, so I can be mentally prepared when I see the child."

Tang Ran took a deep breath. When he came, he had prepared himself for the worst. No matter how much he paid, he had to be taught well. Only then could he be worthy of that dead friend.

"Go ahead."

"The situation is like this. We smashed a criminal gang two hours ago. According to their account, they used some trafficked children to trade drugs..."

Tang Ran's face became ugly.

"According to the prisoner, the child named Fang Tian was a homeless child he picked up on the road more than ten years ago. For some reason, since then he has started to use children to transport drugs. They also got a lot of children from traffickers."

"Oh!"

Tang Ran punched the wall, "These scum!"

Xue Quan patted Tang Ran on the shoulder and persuaded: "Old Tang, this is not your fault. You should go and see the child first. The first time I saw him, I discovered that he and his My father looks exactly the same."

"Where is that child now?"

"Stay with the other children, go, I'll take you there first."
