A carefree soldier king in the city

Chapter 745 It’s easy to change a country but hard to change one’s nature

"Well—" Chao Bufan turned his gaze to Wang Zi and his wife.

"Damn it!" Ge Dawei cursed under his breath. He should have known it was the two of them who did it. Only the "Master Thieves" Wang Zi and Zhang Yi had the ability to steal the helicopter keys from his grandfather. Plus, Wang Zi had flown helicopters before, so this mission was a given. "I knew it! How could you possibly 'borrow' my grandfather's precious treasure?"

Needless to say, he already knew why Chao Bufan had the five of them complete such an easy task at the same time. It turned out there was a "premeditated" plan!

"Alright!" Chao Bufan clapped his hands twice, and everyone immediately returned to their positions, full of enthusiasm. "Everyone, get ready to go!"

"Oh yeah!"

After everything was properly packed and ready, the eight young members of "Chopin Nocturne" set off in a grand procession. Their destination was Chinatown in the United States. Yes, you read that right, and you heard right—Chinatown, not Manhattan. And the one who would be the pilot for this flight was none other than Wang Zi.

……

"Sir, there's something I've been thinking about, but I still have to tell you. I hope you won't be angry after hearing it," said Old Xie.

"Yes, what is it? Speak!" Old Tian nodded.

"Sir, it's like this, your helicopter has flown away."

"What?" Old Tian was startled. "It 'flew' away by itself?"

"Yes, sir."

Old Tian quickly reached into his pocket, only to realize he'd completely lost his disguise. He exclaimed anxiously, "What happened?"

"Well, sir, your nephew left a note saying he wants to borrow your helicopter to travel around the world." Old Xie was both amused and exasperated.

"You little brat, I'll skin you alive!" Old Tian roared in fury. "How dare you plot against me! You're getting more and more outrageous! Hurry up and get them back! Don't let them damage the equipment inside; it could cost them their lives!"

"Sir, it's probably too late. They've probably already appeared on camera by now!"

"Well..." Old Tian clenched his fists, but found he had no way to use them. "Oh well, never mind, we can only give them a few days' use."

……

American Chinatown.

The helicopter carrying Chao Bufan and his companions landed directly inside the Feng family mansion.

"cousin."

The Fengling and Fengyue brothers, who had been waiting for a long time, quickly waved and took care of her.

"Cousin." Feng Yue's face was beaming with a smile as radiant as wildflowers in full bloom.

Feng Yue, nineteen years old, is beautiful with fair skin, and is clever and intelligent. She is the second-in-command of the Feng family.

"Fengling, Xiaoyue." Chao Bufan returned their greeting with his signature smile.

"Cousin, it's been years since I last saw you, you've become even more handsome!" Feng Yue said.

"You're getting more and more beautiful too." This is also a heartfelt statement.

"Cousin, invite all your friends inside!" Feng Ling said.

Chao Bufan nodded and asked, "Fengling, are your uncle and aunt home?"

“My parents went to New York yesterday to take care of some business, and they won’t be back for a few days,” Feng Yue answered first.

"You didn't tell my uncle and the others about my coming here, did you?" Chao Bufan asked again.

"We haven't told them yet," Feng Ling said.

"That's good. Don't tell your uncle about my visit yet, lest they tell my parents, or things will get really bad," Chao Bufan said.

"Don't worry! We know," the brother and sister said at the same time.

As one of the three major gangs in Chinatown, the Feng family's mansion is naturally extraordinary. It is undoubtedly grand and luxurious, and its strict security and defense measures would probably make most people give way.

Once inside, Feng Yue personally served tea. After some introductions, Feng Yue asked, "Cousin, weren't you in the army? How come you have time to travel here?"

Chao Bufan only told Feng Ling the purpose of his trip; Feng Yue was unaware of it, which is why she asked such a question.

"I left the army a long time ago and haven't served in the military since," Chao Bufan replied.

"Oh, I thought you were still in the army! Cousin, how long do you plan to stay here? How about I be your guide?" Feng Yue said.

"No need to trouble yourself. My friends have all been here before and are quite familiar with the place. As for how long we'll stay, we'll see!"

"Are you sure you don't need me to be your guide?"

"It's really not necessary."

"OK then!"

"Alright, Xiaoyue, your cousin and the others just arrived. Let them rest for a bit. We can talk about everything tomorrow!"

"Okay, cousin, you guys rest now, I won't bother you anymore! If there's anything I can do to help, just let me know."

"Ok."

After several hours in the helicopter, Chao Bufan and his team were indeed quite tired, especially the "captain" Wang Zi, who was extremely exhausted.

After resting for a few hours, Chao Bufan and the others gathered together, and Feng Ling was also there.

“Cousin, I have taken care of everything you asked me to do,” Feng Ling said.

"Fengling, you didn't tell Xiaoyue about this, did you?" He felt that the fewer people who knew about this, the better.

"Don't worry, cousin. I only told her you were here for tourism, and I didn't say anything else," Feng Ling assured her.

"That's good!" Chao Bufan nodded. "Then tell me what information you have!"

“Okay.” Just as they were talking, Feng Ling had already turned on his computer. “Cousin, although our Feng family and the Demon Wolf Gang don’t have much contact, I’ve had a few face-to-face deals with them. I’ve found that Demon Wolf is inherently suspicious and doesn’t trust anyone, not even his subordinates. Also, he’s ruthless and decisive, and everyone in the gang is terrified of him and dares not do anything wrong. According to my brothers who have been planted in the Demon Wolf Gang, they’re going to hold some kind of event tonight, and their security will be a little lax then.”

"Brother Feng, do you know what kind of event they're holding?" Ge Dawei asked.

“As for what kind of activity it was, my brother doesn’t know either,” Feng Ling said. “Also, according to news from my brother, Demon Wolf left the Demon Wolf Gang two days ago with several trusted men. Nobody knows what he’s doing or where he’s going. So, you see, apart from this information, I can’t do anything else.”

As he spoke, Feng Ling pointed the computer screen at Chao Bufan and the others.

After reading the information, Chao Bufan smiled and said, "This information is enough for us."

“Cousin, I now understand why you left the army,” Feng Ling said with a faint smile.

Chao Bufan shrugged and said, "There's no way around it, old habits die hard! There are just too many rules in the military. How can someone like me who doesn't like to follow the rules survive? By doing this, I not only get rich rewards, but I can also live a free and easy life."
