Chapter 416 Tailor

The days quickly passes by as everyone from Alpha Team and Wolf Team continued into their usual routine with a little twist.

Each group was to keep up with your daily tasks, but given a certain time to meet at Uncle Zhi's shop.

However, throughout the days, there was no sign of another attack at midnight like the note left behind. Although, nothing happened, no one put their guard down.

It was now week, but everyone made sure to keep a close eye on Uncle Zhi's shop as each person took turn changing shifts according to plan.

As the common people of Imperial continued their walk in the late morning, no one was aware of the what was going on inside the creepy building.

Amongst the crowed street, three men with charming looks can be seen walking in the same pace as everyone else.

Taking the lead is a man wearing rimless glasses. He wore a tan trench coat with a black turtleneck sweater and black jeans.

Behind him, the other two followed, but were immerse in their own conversation.

One wore a plaid collar shirt with khakis and a brown wool coat over while the other wore a black coat with a grey sweater and light blue denims.

"Oh my! Are they celebrities? Why haven't I seen them before?

"

"They're all so handsome, do you think they're single?

"

"As handsome as them, I'm sure they already have girlfriends.

"

As the three men passes through the busy crowd, young women stare in awe at the them. Just seeing them was enough to make them want to faint into blissfulness.

They have been walking this street everyday and never seen such handsome men before.

Whispers and giggles sound loud enough for the three men to hear, but none paid any attention to the young women.

"Qi Li, don't you agree?

"

Suddenly, the man wearing the black coat spoke as he place his hand one the leading man's shoulder.

Qi Li kept a straight face and shrug his shoulder. He slightly rolls his shoulder to brush Gui Tian Lan's hand away.

Though his expression said one thing, deep down he was fuming with frustration.

He could have been riding his motorcycle, but to his misfortune, he was paired up with Gui Tian Lan and Yiqing.

Like it was not enough, throughout the entire time they have been working together, both men would continuously bragged about their needle skills.

Sighing inside, he sees that they were nearing Uncle Zhi's shop.

His eyes lit up in relief and he picks up the pace in big stride ahead.

Behind, both men were unaware of their teammate who left them. Gui Tian Lan touch his chin as he thought about something.

"Yiqing, your needle skills are indeed good, but I think you're lacking a bit on how you flick them.

"

Usually when someone corrects him other than his boss, Yiqing would have unleashed the demon inside him, but surprisingly, he did not get angry when he heard Gui Tian Lan's words.

He nod his head and slightly furrow his brows at the same time.

"Hrmm… You are right. My needles are shorter than yours, which should be faster than yours, but your flicks are sturdier than mine.

"

Which was the truth. The day he tried to test Alpha Team, judging from the short time and distance Gui Tian Lan sent the needle his way, he could tell the speed was three times faster than his.

For some people, three times the strength might not be much, but for him, it makes a huge difference. If he can flick his needles at the same speed as Gui Tian Lan, he'll have a better advantage against his enemies.

As he immerse in his own thoughts, Gui Tian Lan glance at the man with side eyes. He shook his head and place his left hand on the man's shoulder.

"Here, let me tell you a little something.

"

His righthand slightly raises as he brings the tip of his thumb and index finger together. Lightly stretching out his other three fingers, he motions a flick and spoke.

"This is how you usually flick your needles right?

"

Yiqing's eyes shook at how Gui Tian Lan knew the way he handles his needles. However, he quietly nods his head yes.

Getting an answer, Gui Tian Lan gestures another sign with his fingers.

This time, he brings the tip of middle finger and thumb together.

"Instead of using with your index finger, use your middle finger. It has more strength and gives you a better control in aiming what is in your hands.

"

Hearing the advice, Yiqing's brows arch up in amusement. He continuously nods his head in understanding and test out the new 'skill' he learned.

As he moves through the crowd, both his arms raised, and he starts to flick imaginary needles in every direction.

However, thinking about something, he turns to look at the man who has now become his new teacher.

"Master, how do you know this?

"

"…

"

Gui Tian Lan blinks his eyes and didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Never in his entire years of living has anyone called him master. Not only that, he thought it was common sense that flicking with your middle finger has more control and strength?

However, making up his mind, he laughs and fold his arms over his chest.

"Needles are my specialty. Understanding them is my job.

"

"Your job?

"

Yiqing questions in confusion. He can understand that needles are Gui Tian Lan's specialty, but what does that have to do with his job? Aren't the members of Alpha Team like Wolf Team?

Seeing that Yiqing can sometimes be slow, Gui Tian Lan heaves a long sigh. Unfolding his right hand, he points to himself.

"My student, your master here is a professional tailor.

"

"…

"

Yiqing's jaw dropped to the ground in disbelief at what he was hearing. How can a refine person like Gui Tian Lan be a tailor? No, more like, why be a tailor?

Oblivious to the thoughts of his new and only student, Gui Tian Lan's eyes subconciously glances away from the man only to suddenly widen them.

He and Yiqing were so into their discussion that he just now realized Qi Li was no longer in front of them.

Instead, the glasses man was already making a turn into the entrance of Uncle Zhi's shop!

"Bro, we gotta go!

"

He spoke and without a care for the man in a daze, he grabs Yiqing by the collar of his coat and strides after Qi Li.

Ahead of the two men, Qi Li leisurely enters the rundown building, as Gui Tian Lan and Yiqing finally caught up to him in a few seconds.

Heading straight for the secret room in the back, Qi Li stood in front of one of the walls and gently place his palm near the far end.

With a light push, the entire wall in front of them slowly shifts in rotation.

As the three figures enter to the underground passage, the wall slowly shifts back into its normal position. It was as if no one had stepped foot into that room at all.
