Katerina sobbed intermittently as she spoke.
The White Shark has great influence in the Goose Country. Every year, they select children with good potential from orphanages to train.
Katerina herself came from an orphanage and joined the White Shark.
For her, the only things she cared about in her heart were the orphanage and Teacher Linda, who had raised her.
Over the years, much of the money she earned at White Shark had been donated back to the orphanage.
Although she explained the whole story in just a few sentences, Jiang Nan could tell how difficult the past few months had been for Katerina.
Jiang Nan grinned, crouched down, and opened his palm. “Look! What is this?”
Katerina stared blankly at the key lying in Jiang Nan’s hand.
“This… key? The one you gave to the Sakura Group was fake?”
Even Lynx looked stunned. How could there be two keys?
Jiang Nan smiled. “It’s real! The one in my hand is also real, but I altered a string of command characters, so the key can’t unlock the security programme anymore!”
“I have plenty of these!”
As he spoke, he pulled out a large handful more.
Katerina was dumbfounded. You really do make them wholesale!
How did they multiply so much?
By the way, can the characters in a security key be changed just like that?
Do you have to say it so casually!
Lynx hadn’t expected that Jiang Nan had prepared so many before coming.
“But if they discover they’re fake…”
Jiang Nan felt a little smug. “Before the incantation analysis data is found, they can’t use it at all. How would they know it’s fake?”
“If I say it’s real, then it’s real!”
“Besides, even if they find out it’s fake, what can they do to me? I’m now the only one who can open the incantation analysis data!”
Lynx looked at Jiang Nan with shining eyes. A living key, huh?
Katerina’s eyes were full of expectation. “Then use the key to exchange with White Shark for Teacher Linda and the children? They promised me…”
Jiang Nan cupped Katerina’s face, his expression serious. “Don’t be naive, beautiful lady!”
“You’re in this line of work, you know better than anyone! Kidnapping people to control pawns is a common tactic!”
“Just try going to White Shark with the key? They’d take the key with one hand and kill you with the other. As for Teacher Linda and the others, forget it!”
Lynx nodded. “When you’re too concerned, you lose clarity! Don’t fool yourself!”
Katerina bit her lower lip hard, biting until it turned pale without realising.
How could she not know?
But as long as there was even a sliver of hope, she was willing to try!
Jiang Nan pulled Katerina up and raised one finger. “The first rule of doing bad things! Always keep the initiative in your own hands!”
“Let White Shark accept my conditions, not me accepting theirs. Leave this to me!”
Katerina clung tightly to Jiang Nan’s arm, her eyes bright. “I’ll listen to you!”
Lynx rushed forward in one stride, immediately placing her hand between their faces, glaring fiercely at Katerina!
Don’t think I don’t know you’re about to turn into a woodpecker again!
However, Jiang Nan took the opportunity to lean his little head over and pecked frantically at the back of Lynx’s hand.
“Mua! Mua! Mua!”
Lynx jerked her hand back like lightning, hurriedly wiping it on her clothes, her eyes already murderous!

One hour later!
At the entrance of a high-end apartment in the back city district, Jiang Nan knocked on the door nine light taps followed by one heavy.
A deep voice came from inside.
“Odd changes, even remains the same!”
Jiang Nan smiled confidently. “Signs depend on the quadrant!”
There was a moment of silence inside…
“Hydrogen, helium, lithium, beryllium, boron! Carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, neon!”
Jiang Nan: (≖_≖٥)
“Sodium, magnesium, aluminium, silicon, phosphorus! Sulphur, chlorine, argon, potassium, calcium!”
Another silence inside, faintly accompanied by the sound of flipping pages.
“Can you recite the full text of the Chu Shi Biao?”
Jiang Nan: (̿▀̿ ̿Ĺ̯̿̿▀̿̿ꐦ)̄
“Recite your sister! If you don’t open the door, I’ll beat you up!”
The door suddenly swung open, revealing a skinny, monkey-like young man grinning as he opened it, holding a textbook in his hand.
“Haha! That’s the vibe! It’s definitely South God! You’ve finally arrived!”
Jiang Nan’s little face darkened. Does your password have to be this extreme?
In the apartment, a two-metre-tall, bearded, muscular man wearing a baseball cap, with tanned bronze skin and a resolute face, was smoking.
On the coffee table and sofa, a curly-haired girl with huge dark circles under her eyes was sorting documents, her hair messy, her face pale, and her pupils surprisingly blood-red!
As soon as Jiang Nan entered, several people quickly stood up and saluted him.
“Greetings, Lieutenant Colonel Jiang, Colonel Luo!”
Katerina looked at Jiang Nan in shock. No way?
Last time in Suka, you were just a little soldier!
How long has it been? You’re already a lieutenant colonel?
Jiang Nan grinned. “No need to be so formal outside. Just call me South God!”
Lynx pointed at the skinny monkey. “Liu Ming! Codename Skinny Monkey! He’s in charge of intelligence gathering here with his Lone Wolf team, the Dark Night elite squad! All platinum level!”
Jiang Nan looked at Liu Ming and nodded approvingly.
Then his gaze fell on the bearded muscular man, his eyes lighting up!
The iron-like muscles seemed even more robust than Wu Liang’s, especially the pecs, stretching the clothes tight!
It gave an extremely strong sense of oppression. He looked perfect for drinking Dali!
Jiang Nan stepped forward and punched his chest. The elasticity was astonishing!
“Tsk! So solid! Well trained!”
The muscular man suddenly clutched his chest, his cheeks flushing red, twisting shyly!
A soft, cute female voice rang out. “Oh~ South God! You’re so naughty!”
As she spoke, she raised a fist the size of a sand pot and hammered Jiang Nan’s chest! With a “thump” sound!
Jiang Nan’s smile froze on his face, half from the hit, half from shock!
Skinny Monkey burst out laughing. “Lin Miaoke! Our team’s tank! Codename Iron Bull! She’s a girl!”
The blood-pupiled girl beside them covered her mouth.
“(∗❛ั̫❛ั∗)～Wow! South God is so bold!”
Jiang Nan: !!!
What kind of durian girl are you!
Your style is completely different from everyone else’s, okay?
Drawing a man but claiming it’s a woman? How was that soft voice produced! Definitely dubbed later, right?
“S… sorry! You haven’t shaved, I didn’t recognise you!”
Even if you shaved, I wouldn’t recognise you!
Lynx couldn’t hold back her laughter beside them. Serves you right for not reading the files properly!
The blood-pupiled girl smiled. “Ji Shuang, codename Platelet!”
“There’s also Black Crow out on surveillance who hasn’t returned yet!”
Jiang Nan sat on the sofa, his expression turning serious. “I’m here this time mainly to cause trouble. Tell me about the specific situation here!”
Ji Shuang directly handed over the documents she had just organised.
“Half a month ago, a Boson appeared in the industrial district of the Metropolis, but only for a short time!”
“However, Sakura Group’s space-type Senbonzakura, Bright Society’s space-type magician, and America’s space-type Dao Tian Pierce all showed up, but still failed to catch it!”
“Including you! There are now four space-types here!”
Skinny Monkey said. “During this period, Bosons haven’t appeared, so everyone has shifted their attention to the key! It’s said to be in the hands of a woman named Katerina!”
“A few days ago, she was captured by Senbonzakura. Not sure about the details!”
Jiang Nan. “She’s Katerina! The key is now with me!”
Skinny Monkey: (๐･᷄口･᷅) Huh?
Not only Skinny Monkey was stunned, Lin Miaoke and Ji Shuang all looked at Jiang Nan in astonishment?
What… what’s going on!
This… she… I?
At that moment, a dark shadow suddenly emerged from the shadows in the corner, excited.
“Let me tell you! Something big happened with the Sakura Group. Just now, I don’t know if they fought or what!”
“The Royal Hotel collapsed half of it. I sneaked a peek inside. In that room, people were lying all over the place!”
“Senbonzakura was furious! Stomping around in the room, muttering ‘wash, wash’! This… South God?”
At this point, Skinny Monkey and the others’ gazes fell on Jiang Nan, full of shock!
This couldn’t be…
Jiang Nan. “No need to talk about that side. Before coming here, I took a stroll around the Royal Hotel. Tell me about White Shark!”
Everyone’s eyes widened!
Confirmed! It was definitely South God’s doing!
He came alone right away and took on the Sakura Group? And got both Katerina, whom everyone was looking for, and the key?
Skinny Monkey smiled bitterly. “Now I know you really came to cause trouble!”
