Chapter 187: Just Two Small Fry

~7 min read 1,382 words

Glancing at the sack in the bald, burly man's hands, Lin Feng said playfully, "Can you talk now? Why do you want to abduct these women who possess Yin Meridians? What are you trying to do?"

The female fortune-teller said with a smile, "You want to know? Fine, then I will..."

Before she could finish, the female fortune-teller raised her hand and released a cloud of pink mist, which surged rapidly toward Lin Feng.

However, Lin Feng simply blew a light breath, and a violent gust of wind suddenly whipped up in the room; the poisonous gas released by the female fortune-teller, which could render someone unconscious in just a few seconds, was instantly blown away by the wind!

The bald, burly man let out a roar and charged at Lin Feng like a fierce tiger descending from a mountain.

Furthermore, the muscles on his body bulged, as if every single muscle contained explosive power!

But just as this bald, burly man rushed in front of Lin Feng, he discovered that Lin Feng was no longer in his original spot!

"He's behind you!" the female fortune-teller shrieked.

The bald, burly man roared and turned around, but it was already too late.

Lin Feng struck the bald, burly man's back with a backhand palm, and the guy spat out a mouthful of bright red blood with a 'pfft' sound, falling to the ground in a sorry state, unable to get up!

"Only you are left. Do you have any other tricks besides that poisonous gas that can make people faint? If you do, bring them out; if you keep dawdling, you won't have a chance to use them," Lin Feng said.

Who would have thought that this female fortune-teller had already been scared out of her wits; she actually plopped onto her knees and begged for mercy repeatedly.

"Don't kill me, I'm just working for someone else, I'm at most just an accomplice... Please, as long as you spare me, I'm willing to do anything. I can sleep with you, I promise to serve you comfortably..."

As she spoke, the female fortune-teller batted her eyes at Lin Feng and even unbuttoned her clothes, wanting to show off her plump, alluring body.

However, Lin Feng kicked her directly!

"Do you think your body is worth that much? You really have no self-awareness at all!" Lin Feng said unhappily.

The rest of the matter was very simple.

Lin Feng took out his phone and dialed Lei Dong's number, and ten minutes later, Lei Dong arrived at the scene with Chen Qinghe and the others.

"I've already found the mastermind; it's these two guys. They use a website to screen targets, then invite specific people here for an in-person check, and once confirmed, they proceed to abduct them."

"There is a young girl in that sack on the ground; you can open it and see for yourselves."

Lin Feng pointed to the sack on the ground and said, and Lei Dong had already rushed over to open it.

Looking at the unconscious young girl in the sack, Lei Dong was so excited his face glowed red.

"Great, the missing persons case has finally been solved!"

"Mr. Lin, you are truly amazing. Asking for your help was indeed a wise choice!"

Lei Dong said excitedly, and Chen Qinghe and the Divine Dragon Guards present all cast admiring gazes at Lin Feng.

Lin Feng, however, did not care at all and only reminded him, "Don't forget what you promised me."

"Mr. Lin, don't be in such a hurry, I will have the Alchemy Furnace sent to you later," Lei Dong said with a chuckle.

There was nothing left for Lin Feng to do here, so he turned and left.

Returning to the Shuiyuntian Central Villa, just as he stepped into the living room, Lin Feng saw Lin Wei sitting on the sofa, clutching her phone with a distressed look on her face and sighing.

"What's wrong, Xiao Wei?" Lin Feng asked.

"That fortune-telling website suddenly won't load; I don't know if there's some kind of server malfunction," Lin Wei said with a miserable look.

Lin Feng laughed: "Don't believe in that kind of thing; those are all deceptive tricks."

The missing persons case was solved, and a big problem was resolved, so Lin Feng was in a great mood.

Lin Wei jumped off the sofa and asked, "Brother, what are we eating for lunch?"

"How about hot pot?" Lin Feng smiled.

"Yes, yes! I love hot pot the most!" Lin Wei said with a bright smile.

Lin Wei went off busily to prepare, while Lin Feng sat down on the sofa to rest.

It wouldn't be long before Lei Dong sent the Alchemy Furnace over.

Ordinary alchemy furnaces cannot refine Spirit Medicine and Spirit Pills; only an Alchemy Furnace at the level of a Dharma Treasure can do so.

I wonder if the Alchemy Furnace in Lei Dong's possession is a Dharma Treasure; if it is, that would be truly great.

Lin Feng thought to himself, a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth.

However, just at this moment, Lei Dong's call suddenly came through.

Lin Feng had just answered when Lei Dong said in a grave tone on the other end of the line: "Mr. Lin, we made a mistake."

"What mistake?" Lin Feng frowned.

"We have already interrogated them; that pair of scoundrels is not the true mastermind. They were also just working for someone else. All the women they abducted before have already been handed over to a mysterious person!" Lei Dong said through gritted teeth.

Lin Feng's good mood instantly turned terrible.

And it was also at this moment that Lin Feng suddenly remembered what the female fortune-teller had said while begging for mercy—that they were only accomplices and were just working for someone else.

"So you mean to say that after all this effort, I only caught two small fry, the real mastermind is still hiding in the shadows, and those abducted women are still missing without a trace?" Lin Feng said in a low voice.

"That is indeed the case," Lei Dong said helplessly, and he even sighed.

Lin Feng asked: "Did they say anything else? Did you manage to interrogate them for any clues about that mysterious person?"

Lei Dong hurriedly replied: "We did manage to get some clues. They don't know who the mysterious person is either, but they said that whenever they abduct a woman, they meet with that mysterious person and hand the person over to him."

"Even if they haven't abducted anyone, they still meet once a week. According to the woman's answer, the next time they are scheduled to meet is at twelve o'clock midnight three days from now, and the location is the rooftop of Jinyuan Dasha."

Lin Feng finally let out a breath of relief.

As long as there are clues, he can continue to follow the trail.

If it were like before, with absolutely no clues, it would be truly too difficult to handle.

"I understand. When the time comes, I will impersonate that bald, burly man and go to Jinyuan Dasha to meet the mysterious person. Once I catch that mysterious person, you can proceed with the interrogation!" Lin Feng said.

"Many thanks for your help, Mr. Lin," Lei Dong said gratefully.

"Don't mention it. I am now also a War King of the Dragon Soul; the affairs of the Dragon Soul are my affairs," Lin Feng said.

Hearing this, Lei Dong on the other end of the phone finally let out a long sigh of relief.

Lin Wei had already finished preparing lunch.

The mandarin duck hotpot was bubbling away in the center of the dining table, surrounded by plates of side dishes.

Lin Feng stopped thinking about the missing persons case and happily ate hotpot with Lin Wei.

However, halfway through the meal, a luxury Ferrari pulled up outside the villa's courtyard gate.

"You keep eating, I'll go out and take a look," Lin Feng said.

"Come back quickly, or I'll eat it all up," Lin Wei said with a smile.

Stepping out of the living room, Lin Feng saw the Ferrari's door already open; who else could the woman stepping out of the car be but Bai Yuhui!
