The Spirit of Gourmet

Chapter 508 Rebellion against Tiangang
"Okay Brother Long."

Qin Lang nodded quickly, a hint of expectation in his eyes. "You're the contact person, so does that mean I need your approval to join the organization?"

"You guessed right." A hint of satisfaction flashed in Long Yu's eyes.

Before he could even begin to deceive, the other party had already paved the way for him.

“Meng Chang should have told you that our organization has outstanding spirit chefs from all walks of life, many of whom have a high social status, so not just anyone can join this organization and have any interaction with us.”

Long Yu slowly began, "Therefore, joining requires an assessment."

"I am your first assessor. If you pass my assessment, you will be one step closer to joining our organization."

"Huh? There are still several more assessments?" Qin Lang looked troubled. "Will the assessments be very difficult?"

Long Yu's eyes flickered. Thinking about what the other party was going to do for them, he thought it would be best to lay the groundwork a little more in order not to arouse their suspicion.

"The assessment will naturally not be easy," Long Yu said slowly. "You need to understand that once you join the mutual aid organization, you will have the opportunity to access and obtain hundreds of different rare ingredients. Such an opportunity is extremely rare."

"The vast majority of spirit chefs don't even have the opportunity to take the exam."

"So, being able to take the assessment is already your good fortune."

At this point, Long Yu's tone became stern.

"Are you going to back down just because the assessment is difficult?"

"No, no, no, of course not!" Qin Lang quickly shook his head. "I was just asking... Brother Long, why don't you tell me about the assessment content?"

"What do I need to do to pass your assessment?"

A slight smile curved the corners of Long Yu's mouth, which were hidden by his collar.

He was certain that Qin Lang was now completely captivated by the bright future he had painted for him after joining the organization, and his vigilance had greatly diminished.

"Okay, now I'll briefly talk about my assessment."

Long Yu coughed lightly, "I have a distant nephew who has been arrested by the public security management team for some reason."

At this point, Long Yu sighed sadly, "Although he made a mistake and it was right for him to be arrested by the public security management team, he is still my nephew, so... can you understand how I feel?"

"Of course!" Qin Lang answered without hesitation, but his heart tightened.

What distant nephew? He must be one of the members of the treasure hunting team who were captured!
However, he could only cooperate with the other party for now and see what they were really up to.

"So, I hope you can help me find out about the security team and see how my nephew is doing." Long Yu shook his head slightly. "If you can do that within the next day or two..."

"Then you will be able to pass my test."

To gather information for the hunting team at the security management team?

Qin Lang's lips twitched slightly.

The treasure hunting team really had a good plan. If it was an outsider who was trying to gather information, even if they were caught by the security management team, the treasure hunting team could completely clear themselves of the truth.

This wasn't difficult for Qin Lang; he could simply find Captain Lin and discuss how to fool the treasure hunting team.

However, thinking of Captain Lin's previous disagreement with his actions, Qin Lang couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

I hope Captain Lin won't blame me for acting on my own.

However, when he agrees, he should appear somewhat hesitant.

Thinking of this, Qin Lang hesitated and asked, "The security management team... have I ever had any dealings with those people?"

"Brother Long, you're from the mutual aid organization. Don't you have any security personnel in the organization? Asking them might be faster." Long Yu was speechless for a moment.

Does a rare animal hunting team have members from a security management team?

That's truly going against the natural order.

"Of course you can ask," Long Yu replied somewhat vaguely, "but this is my test for you."

"I believe that completing this task demonstrates your ability and qualifies you to join our family. Do you understand what I mean?"

"I understand, I understand!"

After giving the other person a slight slap in the face, Qin Lang chuckled inwardly and decided to stop while he was ahead.

"Don't worry, Brother Long, I will do my best to get this done!"

"Very good." Long Yu nodded slightly, then turned and left. "Come find me here after you've completed the assessment."

“You don’t need to worry about how to contact me. As soon as you arrive, I will come immediately.” Long Yu paused for a moment. “The organization’s influence is beyond your imagination.”

With that, he disappeared quickly down a quiet alleyway.

Qin Lang failed to catch up. After the other party left, he quickly walked to a more crowded street and then quietly turned on his microphone to contact Tang Yu.

"Qin Lang, where are you?"

Tang Yu's somewhat nervous voice came from the other end.

They took a shortcut and arrived at the location on the note ahead of everyone else, but after waiting for a long time without seeing Qin Lang arrive, she couldn't help but feel nervous.

"Sister Tang Yu, I haven't reached my destination..." Qin Lang explained the situation to Tang Yu, "So what should I do now?"

"Leave that area first, find a place nearby and tell me the address. I'm coming over now," Tang Yu said quickly.

"We'll talk about the rest when I get there."

"Okay." Qin Lang looked around, chose a milk tea shop, gave the address to Tang Yu, and then waited on a chair outside the milk tea shop.

During this time, a waiter from the milk tea shop came to inquire, and Qin Lang, as usual, casually ordered a cup of QQ pinchable and incredibly delicious popping tea.

No note appeared this time. While drinking his milk tea and waiting, Qin Lang couldn't help but think to himself that he had probably exceeded his sugar intake limit today.

Soon, Tang Yu, wearing sunglasses, arrived in a flurry of activity.

"Dongdong and Zhao Qian are waiting in my car." She casually explained the whereabouts of the other two who hadn't arrived yet, then looked at Qin Lang, "They were more cautious than I thought. I didn't expect to lose them so easily."

"It's alright, they didn't do anything to me." Qin Lang smiled. "But what do you think of their assessment task, Sister Tang Yu?"

"Clearly, they're trying to trick you into finding out the whereabouts of the captured members of the treasure hunting team," Tang Yu said in a deep voice. "If you get caught, they won't suffer any loss. If you actually find out, that'll be an extra surprise."

"However, the other party is obviously unaware that you were present when Meng Yan and the others were arrested that day, and that you even intervened."

"Moreover, they would never guess that you know Captain Lin."

At this point, Tang Yu paused slightly, "So this matter isn't difficult to resolve. We just need to find Captain Lin and tell him the situation."

"He would naturally be willing to cooperate with us in putting on a show."

"That's what I was thinking too." Qin Lang nodded, then sighed with some worry, "Captain Lin won't scold me, will he?"
