A few seconds later, Tian Gang still did not take off his hat. Turk finally realized that something was wrong.

“Well…

Turk tilted his head slightly and leaned towards Tian Gang. “Don’t tell me you really know each other?”

Tian Gang thought that the other party was going to help him think of a way to hide his identity and nodded imperceptibly.

However, after receiving his affirmation, Turk suddenly shouted and pushed Qi Lianjun away before running out!

Qi Lianjun staggered and stabilized his body. When he looked up again, his eyes met Tian Gang’s. A strange expression immediately appeared on his face. “Teacher Tian? Why is it you?”

“I’ll explain later! He’s already far away!”

Tian Gang raised his hand and pointed as he shouted anxiously. Qi Lianjun hurriedly turned around and saw that Turk had indeed run near the elevator!

“Don’t worry, he won’t be able to escape!”

Qi Lianjun said confidently. When he turned around, he realized that Tian Gang had actually run far away. However, the other party clearly did not know the layout here and was running deeper into the prison area…

Ignoring Tian Gang, who had “fallen into a trap”, Qi Lianjun immediately took out his walkie-talkie and gave the order.

It would take a few minutes to reach this level by elevator from here. When Turk emerged from the elevator, he would find an assault team waiting for him.

After making the arrangements, Qi Lianjun set off to chase him into the depths of the prison area. With his understanding of the terrain, he knew it would not take long for Tian Gang to reach a dead end.

“Teacher Tian, you can’t escape.”

Qi Lianjun frowned at Tian Gang, his expression clearly a little unfriendly.

“Why did you disguise yourself and sneak in? Who was that person just now?”

Tian Gang dragged out his words hesitantly and subconsciously glanced at both sides of Qi Lianjun.

The corridor here was more than three meters wide. If he fled in one direction first and suddenly turned around when Qi Lianjun chased after him, he might still be able to escape…

“Don’t think about it. You can’t escape.”

Qi Lianjun said coldly, as if he had already seen through Tian Gang’s thoughts. “I’ve already called for reinforcements. Even if you can escape from me, you’ll still be captured in the end.”

Tian Gang’s heart sank. Qi Lianjun hesitated for a moment and continued, “If you cooperate obediently, I can guarantee that I won’t pursue the matter.”

Hearing this, Tian Gang could not help but be stunned. “Really? Why are you helping me?”

“Because you’re Wang Xiao’s teacher.”

Qi Lianjun sighed and said in a low voice, “Wang Xiao saved me before. He once told me that you’re a good teacher, so I believe you have your reasons for doing all of this.”

“Wang Xiao…”

Tian Gang muttered softly, his eyes flickering as he pondered about something.

A moment later, Tian Gang seemed to have suddenly lost all his strength. He leaned against the wall and slowly slid to the ground. “I’ll confess.”

A few minutes later, Qi Lianjun frowned and asked curiously, “You mean that the other party took the risk to bring you after you helped two people enter the Kaiyang Academy?

Tian Gang nodded and added after some thought, “Their goal should be the academy ranking assessment. As far as I know, the internal selection of Yaoguang Academy has yet to begin, so I asked someone to send them there.”

“Academy ranking assessment?”

Qi Lianjun narrowed his eyes and muttered thoughtfully, “What is the academy ranking assessment? What do they want to do?”

Tian Gang knew that Qi Lianjun was talking to himself, so he did not say anything.

After waiting quietly for a while, the walkie-talkie at Qi Lianjun’s waist suddenly rang. “Adjutant Qi! The elevator has already reached the ground floor, but there’s no one here!”

Qi Lianjun came back to his senses and hurriedly grabbed the walkie-talkie. “Have you checked carefully?”

“I’ve checked! There’s indeed no one!”

The voice on the other end replied, “Our brother in the surveillance room said that he did not go up after entering the elevator. Instead, he went down!”

“What?”

Qi Lianjun’s expression instantly changed. “Which floor did he go to?”

“I don’t know. After he entered the elevator, he quickly destroyed the surveillance cameras. The elevator operation records show that before he went up, he stopped at the military preparation area and the information area!”

“Send someone down immediately and investigate these two areas thoroughly! Also, send someone to guard the elevator to prevent him from taking the opportunity to escape!”

After Qi Lianjun gave the order, he looked at Tian Gang beside him. “Teacher Tian, you heard it too. There’s going to be a thorough investigation here soon. I’ll send you out.”

Tian Gang nodded and stood up, but he stood rooted to the ground. “Adjutant Qi, I know I’m not qualified to make a request, but I really want to meet my brother. As long as you let me meet my brother, you can punish me however you want!”

Qi Lianjun wanted to refuse, but when he saw Tian Gang’s sincere expression, he hesitated for a moment before saying, “I can understand your feelings, but Tian Qiang is currently in a critical stage of treatment. Any stimulation might make all his previous treatment efforts go to waste.”

“Treatment?”

Tian Gang’s expression changed when he heard this. “What’s wrong with my brother?”

“It’s not convenient for me to reveal the details.”

As Qi Lianjun spoke, he took out a card. “This is my number. Contact me in two days and I’ll arrange for you to meet.”

“R-really?”

Tian Gang’s eyes widened in surprise. His first reaction was disbelief.

“Really.”

Qi Lianjun nodded and sighed helplessly. “Actually, you didn’t have to do this at all.”

Tian Gang was stunned and did not understand what he meant.

Seeing this, Qi Lianjun explained, “Wang Xiao has long contacted us and wants you to meet Tian Qiang. However, Tian Qiang’s treatment is at a critical stage, so the commander has decided to arrange a meeting in two days.”

At this point, Qi Lianjun’s tone suddenly became complicated. “I originally wanted to inform you tomorrow, but I didn’t expect…”

“What did you say?”

Tian Gang looked at Qi Lianjun in a daze. Although the other party did not finish speaking, he still understood what the other party meant.

Even if Tian Gang did not do anything, he could have still met with Tian Qiang in two days. However, he had been used by someone with ulterior motives because of a moment of obsession!

Recalling Wang Xiao and Zhou Xiruo’s concerned gazes over the past few days, Tian Gang suddenly felt a little stuffy in his chest. Then, he opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood!

“Teacher Tian!”

Qi Lianjun’s expression changed and he hurriedly went forward to check, but he was stopped by Tian Gang.

“I’m fine.”

Tian Gang wiped the corner of his mouth and looked at the blood on the ground with a bitter smile. “I’m not feeling well. I will have to trouble you to clean it up… See you in two days.”

With that said, Tian Gang staggered towards the elevator.

Qi Lianjun hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he did not follow and support him. He only picked up the walkie-talkie and instructed the warriors on the first floor not to stop him.

With Qi Lianjun’s instructions, Tian Gang successfully returned up and staggered out under the strange gazes of the surrounding people.

After leaving the military building, Tian Gang immediately saw Wang Xiao and Zhou Xiruo looking around anxiously on the opposite street..
