Chapter 2145

Zhang De seemed to ask a question that many people wanted to know, why did Chen Li and Zou Xiong?

Of course, for now, Gu Chen and the others didn't understand.

But now, Chen Li was dead, and Liu Xing kept silent, which made the investigation deadlocked.

Judging from the scene at the time, Gu Chen actually knew very well that Chen Li was killed by Huba, and Huba was killed by Liu Xing.

And there is a high probability that these people are in the same group.

Therefore, in order to make a breakthrough in the investigation, Gu Chen must conduct a comprehensive investigation of the Explorers Club, and of course the focus also includes partners like Zhang De.

After thinking about it, Gu Chen asked Zhang De again: "Boss Zhang, how many shareholders does your Explorers Club have?"

"Just two, me and Liu Xing." As soon as Gu Chen finished speaking, Zhang De took the initiative to explain.

"Are there always two shareholders?" Lu Weiwei asked again.

"Uh, this..."

Zhang De hesitated for a few seconds, and then said again: "Actually, there were three shareholders before, but one of the shareholders is also my friend with Liu Xing, because the family moved abroad."

"So, he transferred the shares to the two of us. From now on, the Explorers Club will only have two bosses."

"So that's the case?" Hearing what Zhang De said, Police Officer Wang nodded slightly, and said again:

"I have another question, that is, how is your relationship with Liu Xing?"

"Very good, the two of us are partners and friends for many years, and the relationship has always been good."

"I mean, you should be in the kind of relationship that knows everything, right?" Officer Wang continued to add.

Zhang De was stunned, obviously hearing what Police Officer Wang meant.

So Zhang De laughed twice, and then said again: "Comrade policemen, you can say what you have? I know everything."

"Okay, what I want is your words." Seeing that Zhang De also began to confess, Police Officer Wang stopped being restrained and asked again immediately:

"Has Liu Xing been in contact with a man named Huba?"

"Huba? That's Huba, the captain of the school's security team?" Zhang De obviously knew about Huba.

When Police Officer Wang said this casually, he was able to blurt it out, which surprised Gu Chen and the others.

"Yes, you know him?" Yuan Shasha asked.

"I know, we have met each other a few times." Zhang De raised his head and began to recall:

"I remember that this man named Huba, Liu Xing was indeed very close to him."

"I also know that this Huba has explored many places, especially his legendary stories, which are creepy to hear, and I don't know if they are true?"

"So you think it's fake?" Yuan Shasha asked.

"Uh, I didn't say that." Zhang De waved his hand and immediately denied it.

Although Zhang De didn't say anything, in fact, everyone had already seen the clues from Zhang De's speech and behavior.

It seems that Zhang De has his own views on Huba's experiences.

So Gu Chen continued to ask him: "Boss Zhang, just now you said you wanted to tell us everything, why are you hesitant to talk now? But it's okay to say it."

"Okay... well, for Gu Ju's sake, let me talk to you about this Huba?"

Seeing that Gu Chen had a need in this regard, Zhang De also let go of his guard, and then began to communicate frankly:

"Actually, I didn't know much about Huba before. It's just that Liu Xing got close to him. He had dinner with him several times, and he also pulled me along."

"But as for me, I don't really like communicating with strangers, especially the wild ones like Huba."

"Are you looking down on Huba's exploration experience?" Lu Weiwei seemed to have some meaning in Zhang De's words.

And Zhang De didn't shy away from it, nodded bluntly and said, "That's right, I don't like Huba's wild ways."

"One time at a dinner party, I remember, that was also the first time I met Huba."

"I was eating at a food stall with Liu Xing, and Huba happened to pass by. Because I knew Liu Xing before, Huba also sat down, so I didn't say anything? Just like meeting a new friend."

After a pause, Zhang De unscrewed the lid of the thermos cup, took a breath, took a sip, and said:

"As soon as Huba sat down, he made friends with us in various ways, but for a person like me, there is a problem, and that is aloofness."

"Aloof?" Officer Wang said with a grin when he heard it, "It's normal for successful people like you to be a little bit aloof."

"Really?" Seeing that Police Officer Wang also agreed with him, Zhang De continued:

"It is for this reason that I don't like to associate with people like Huba, because my friends are all the type of high-end members of our Explorers Club."

"Everyone is a person of quality, and all of them are relatively humble, and they all have an attitude of learning from each other."

"But Huba is different. I don't know where he came from? What education? I don't even know."

"But he told us that he was the captain of a school's security team."

Seeing that Gu Chen and the others were staring at him, Zhang De also seemed to feel that his tone just now seemed too arrogant, so Zhang De immediately explained to everyone:

"Gu Ju, don't get me wrong, I don't have any prejudice against the profession of security, it's just because I don't like to associate with people like Huba."

"Because Huba likes to brag, maybe he doesn't realize it himself."

"Whenever he meets anyone, he talks about his experience of fighting with bears in the Northeast, and dancing with wolves on the edge of grasslands and deserts."

"To tell you the truth, what you said seems to be true, but from Huba's flamboyant appearance, I feel that he is bragging."

"So are you sure he's really bragging?" Gu Chen recorded seriously, and also raised his head to ask him.

Zhang De snorted and said slowly: "Officer Gu, let me tell you this, if you want to play outdoor adventures, you must know some survival skills."

"For those of us, our teacher is a senior explorer in England. That teacher was once a retired special forces soldier. What he taught is very practical and can be applied to all aspects of outdoor exploration."

"Me and Liu Xing, as well as the previous partner who has emigrated abroad, we all made these things into a training system for the membership assessment of our Explorers Club."

"That is to say, you all belong to the class?" Lu Weiwei interjected directly.

Zhang De nodded silently: "It can be understood in this way, so I intentionally or unintentionally communicated with Huba and chatted with him about some professional things."

"I found out that Huba's so-called exploration experience is just for show."

"Huh?" Hearing Zhang De's words, Police Officer Wang said with a puzzled look on his face, "Why do you conclude that he is just showing off? Do you have a basis?"

"Yes, of course." Zhang De didn't hide it, and said directly:

"Those so-called experiences of Huba are adventure stories compiled by an American outdoor explorer."

"In that book, the outdoor explorer once recorded his experience of how to survive the Jedi in various harsh natural environments all over the world."

"It also includes things like fighting with bears, but people have cameras with them, and they also have cameras that took real pictures."

After a pause, Zhang De said again: "So, those things written by others are real."

"But what about Huba? He almost copied that explorer's experience onto himself."

"What are you fighting with bears in the Northeast? You're talking about something, and it's quite realistic, bullshit."

"Why is it true? It's not because it's recorded in the explorer's book."

"So, when I saw Huba bragging about that, I couldn't help laughing, and Liu Xingxin was the only one."

"Then you didn't tell Liu Xing? Didn't you remind him?" Officer Wang asked.

Zhang Deheng smiled and shook his head: "Of course I reminded him, but I didn't expose it. I just told Liu Xing that this Huba exaggerated his words and was a bit bragging."

"But Liu Xing doesn't care about these things. He just feels that Huba is a friend who can be a close friend."

"I'm a little helpless, but I can't stand the relationship between Liu Xing and Huba. It's really good, and I don't want to destroy the relationship between the two."

"So, I kept these things secret, but since then, I rarely see Huba, and I don't want to see Huba either."

"But whenever Huba is present at a party, I won't go, because I don't want to stay with such a liar."

"Wait." After Zhang De's voice fell, Lu Weiwei immediately asked again:

"The story about Huba meeting a pack of wolves in the Gobi and grasslands, was he also making up the story?"

Zhang De waved his hand: "That's not fiction, that's plagiarism. The story about Huba meeting a pack of wolves in the Gobi Grassland and escaping a catastrophe is also plagiarizing the experience of that American explorer."

"Those things, American explorers, have long written these contents into their autobiography."

"It's just because that outdoor explorer is not good at marketing himself, so his reputation is far inferior to those explorers of my master and my master's friends."

"In the world, there are only a small number of people, and the books are not considered bestsellers."

Clutching his chest with both hands, Zhang De said again: "But for professionals like us, it is of great use."

"I read the entire autobiography and found that the attack by the wolves described by Huba is exactly the same."

"That's when I'm convinced that I didn't misunderstand him. He Huba is a liar."

"Everything he said was absurd deceit, because from the very beginning, Huba wanted to use his personality to sneak into our high-end circle."

"Because Huba is very smart, he knows that rich people are in our Explorers Club, but if he can get to know a few, it may be of great benefit to himself."

With a heavy sigh, Zhang De also shook his head helplessly: "Obviously, my partner Liu Xing believed him, and he believed it deeply."

"Liu Xing thinks that Huba has some skills and is a reliable friend."

"For this reason, I even quarreled with Liu Xing, but after all, Liu Xing and I are friends and business partners, so there is no need to hurt our friendship because of a Huba."

"So, this matter, I will not mention it again, and rot this matter in my heart."

"But I also have my own principles, that is, I don't get in touch with Huba. It's better to keep out of sight of this kind of rubbish."

After taking a sip of tea, Zhang De said again: "Now you know why I look down on Huba?"

"People are poor, but they can't be short-sighted."

"You have no skills, you can learn, but you can't lie."

"In our Explorer's Club, the most taboo thing is to lie and deceive others, so our high-end members, everyone treats each other honestly in the business field."

"The cooperation between everyone is precisely because it is based on integrity that can make our high-end circle bigger and bigger."

"Moreover, it continues to absorb some new blood every year, and absorbs some later entrepreneurs and celebrities."

"Understood." Listening to Zhang De's narration, Gu Chen also understood Zhang De's thoughts very well.

He was indeed haughty, and had a natural dislike for non-members.

It may be that Zhang De lost himself a little due to being in too much contact with these high-end circles every day.

But fortunately, Zhang De knew his own shortcomings, and he communicated with Gu Chen without hesitation.

When Zhang Deyue said that, Gu Chenyue felt that the relationship between Huba and Liu Xing was extraordinary, at least there might be some illegal transactions between the two.

Thinking back to when Liu Xing was caught in the hinterland of Fairy Peak before, Liu Xing still refused to admit it. It was because of his stubborn mouth that he deliberately disregarded his relationship with Huba.

But now it seems that with Zhang De's confession, Gu Chen can completely overturn Liu Xing's previous confession.

Thinking of this, Gu Chen hurriedly asked again: "By the way, Boss Zhang, this Huba, apart from bragging, it is impossible that he has no ability to survive in the wild."

"Then if you put him among the high-end members of your Explorers Club, what level do you think Huba's wild adventure ability can be ranked among all the people?"

"It's below average." As soon as Gu Chen finished speaking, Zhang De peeled off his nails and said casually:

"If Huba is allowed to come to our Explorers Club and accept the assessment, he will be at the lower middle level at most."

"Maybe Huba was born in the mountains, and maybe he knows something about the conditions in the mountains."

"But what's the level? Hehe, sorry, below average."

"Okay." Gu Chen recorded all these, and then asked Zhang De: "Boss Zhang, why does Liu Xing believe in such an unbearable Huba?"

"Is Liu Xing too stupid to read people's hearts? I don't think so. What kind of situation do you think?"

It seems that this is the real question that Gu Chen wants to ask, and the above are just foreshadowing.

Zhang De, who was aware of the situation, couldn't help coughing twice, trying to relieve his nervousness, and then said involuntarily:

"Officer Gu, what you said is absolutely right. Liu Xing naturally knows Huba's virtues, and he may also know that Huba is a liar, but he needs Huba, and he needs this kind of person to do things for him."
