What? Teammate lives in Arkham Asylum?

Chapter 1162 Wan Zhongxia: Men Have Face!

"Old Tao is really something. As a leader, he shouldn't get involved in these team-building activities. Wouldn't it be better to stay home and spend time with his wife?"

"Yes, yes."

“We’ve spent more time with him and know what kind of temper he has… but for the lower-ranking agents, he’s their top boss, the kind of person you can hardly even speak to!”

"Yes, yes!"

"The most troublesome kind of leader is the one who's in charge of China-Dengfeng relations. He always feels like he hasn't stepped away from the front lines and can't get along with his subordinates... He's been sitting in the position of Director-General of the Republic for five years! He still hasn't recovered!"

"Yes, yes."

"Sister Peng! Besides 'yes,' what else can you say?!"

“What do you want to hear from me?” Peng Dailan rolled her eyes. “To me, you’re all just little kids… I was born during the Zhenguan era.”

"...Tsk, there's a huge gap between us ordinary people and you great demons!"

Peng Dailan is somewhat speechless about the young people of this new era.

How can someone with almost superhuman strength claim to be an ordinary person?

Then what am I, a great demon who can no longer defeat him? A caterpillar?

While the two were talking, the eldest son and the second son didn't say a word.

Even though they were usually the ones who loved to chime in with Batman, at this moment they dared not do anything but stare with their big, round eyes.

Who knows if this woman who turned from a snake into a human might suddenly decide to turn around and eat them for a treat.

Kong Kenan, who had been venting to Peng Dailan for a while on a whim, suddenly slapped his forehead and remembered that there were two other people next to him.

He quickly turned around and nodded to the eldest son and the second son in apology.

"I'm sorry to have startled you... Although I don't know how you broke through Sister Peng's barrier, don't worry, Sister Peng was just a little grumpy when she woke up and was just trying to scare you... Eating people is harmful to Sister Peng's current cultivation, and since the liberation of the Republic, eating people has been a serious crime."

"To be honest, why is it that I understand every single word you say, but when they're put together, I can't understand a word at all?" The young master touched his hair. "Although I don't know the characters of the Republic, I've practiced the Republic's spoken language with my younger siblings for a long time... Could it be that I haven't practiced enough?"

"No, no, no, your Mandarin is already very standard. People from the Minnan-speaking region here might not even speak Mandarin as standard as you." Kong Kenan waved his hand and laughed. "I just wanted to tell you... please don't tell anyone about what happened here. After all, we have some little secrets."

After saying that, Kong Kenan saw that the eldest son and the second son were looking at him with suspicion, and then he suddenly slapped his forehead.

He took out an ID card from his belt.

The golden, soaring dragon is the official document of the General Administration of the Republic.

It was only at this point that the eldest son and the second son realized what was happening...

The two people in front of me are both from the FBI.

As Bruce Wayne's son and assistant, they were certainly aware that the five major agencies of the FBI were now moving towards integration.

Although it hasn't been officially announced yet, agents at level four and above are already generally aware of it.

It's not exactly a secret.

Because of Li Chengfeng's presence, the American General Bureau and the Republic General Bureau have always been as close as family, engaging in the most joint operations and frequently seeking each other's assistance.

Once the FBI is truly integrated, the people from the former Republic Bureau and the former America Bureau will likely have the most say.

After all, although the other general administrations are at the same level, they have almost no truly supreme authority.

That means the English headquarters also has a British captain...

But why are the other General Administrations also so keen on integrating with the Joint Investigation Bureau?

With more power comes greater responsibility.

They were already under pressure to resolve supernatural events, and while the Astartes' deployment around the world alleviated some of that pressure, it was certainly not as efficient as having a central command center to coordinate them.

As the saying goes... if the sky falls, the taller ones will hold it up.

“Well, strictly speaking, we’re family…” Dick said to Kong Kenan after confirming the authenticity of the documents in his hand. “My family is America’s largest outsourcing contractor, and Agent Li Chengfeng of the FBI is my father’s brother…”

“No, I’m from the Republic, and the Republic’s language you’re speaking doesn’t have much of an accent… but why can’t I understand it?” Kong Kenan was taken aback. “Of course I know Agent Li Chengfeng. I was there when Quicksilver from the America Bureau got married to the Atlantis princess… but the FBI’s records show that Agent Li Chengfeng only has one page on his household registration. Where did he get any brothers?”

"Um, I'm not too sure about that, but they all definitely called Grandma 'Mom'..."

"...What's your dad's name?"

"Bruce Wayne..."

"Holy crap!? Batman is a six-dimensional being just like Agent Li Chengfeng!?"

"Holy crap!? How did you know my dad is Batman!?"

"Batman's identity is top secret information that can only be accessed by those with Level 8 clearance or above within the FBI... but the fact that Batman is a six-dimensional being is not written in the documents."

Seeing Kong Kenan and the eldest son exclaiming in surprise, Peng Dailan was somewhat speechless.

Kids are making a fuss over nothing...

Just then, Peng Dailan's cell phone rang.

"A once-in-a-millennium event! Wait a little longer!"

"A once-in-a-millennium opportunity! I have no regrets!"

"Who whispered in my ear, 'Your love for me will never change...'"

Under the curious gazes of the three teenagers, Peng Dailan calmly answered the phone.

Without even looking at the screen, she blurted out, "I don't want loans, I don't want insurance, I don't want new packages, and I don't want in-home massage services..."

"What nonsense are you spouting, Sister Peng? So your private phone never receives calls from friends? Is it only these scam calls?"

Hearing the strong, energetic voice on the phone, Peng Dailan subconsciously held the phone in front of her, glanced at it, and after confirming that she didn't recognize the number, continued:

"Boss, why did you call using a regular phone? Shouldn't you be using an encrypted dedicated line?"

"Sister Peng, we're here for team building! It's a vacation! I definitely didn't bring my encrypted phone line... so I'm calling you using my wife's phone."

"So what's the matter?"

"Well, all of our ID cards are with that kid Kong Kenan. He ran away, so we can't check in! We're all in the hotel lobby right now!"

"...No, you're high-ranking agents from the Republic's General Bureau, don't you have any special methods?"

"...Ahem, men have some shame, you know."

"Yeah, that's right, squatting in the hotel lobby is the most prestigious thing to do."
