Chapter 398: Pickpocket Group

"Because as long as you join the pickpocket group, you must take a type of poison, and you must take the antidote regularly to temporarily suppress the poison in your body. If you don't take the antidote regularly, while it won't kill you, it is incredibly painful... I have experienced that feeling; it was truly desperate, and at the time, I even had the thought of smashing my head against a wall to die," the girl said, crying.

"The antidote and the poison were both developed by the boss of the Rat Group? Is he a pharmacist?" Lin Feng asked.

The girl nodded repeatedly.

Lin Feng asked again: "Does the poison in your body flare up once a month?"

"It doesn't flare up once a month; the timing isn't that precise."

As the girl spoke, she raised her wrist to show Lin Feng, and at a glance, Lin Feng discovered a small dot on the girl's wrist that was deep red.

"After taking that poison, a small dot like this appears on the wrist. As time passes, the color gradually deepens, and finally, it turns completely black. When this dot turns black, the toxin erupts, and then I am in agonizing pain."

"But as long as I take that antidote, this small dot will turn white, and then it will deepen bit by bit, cycling like this."

"As for the time... sometimes it's twenty days, sometimes it's fifteen days; generally speaking, it's about that time frame."

The girl wiped the tears from her face and pleaded: "Big Brother, now you understand, right? I was also forced into this; I had no other choice... Please, have mercy and let me go. I swear I will absolutely not steal from you again."

"If that's not enough, I can accompany you for a night. If you think one night isn't enough, I can accompany you for two or three nights!"

Lin Feng shook his head and said: "No, I have no interest in you. I don't need you to accompany me, and I won't just let you go like this."

Hearing Lin Feng's words, a look of despair appeared on the girl's face.

"But I can help you neutralize the toxins in your body," Lin Feng said.

"Really? What kind of joke are you making? Do you think you are..."

Before the girl could finish her sentence, Lin Feng grabbed her wrist. He instantly activated the Ten Thousand Poison Ghost Hand, and the flame pattern on the back of Lin Feng's hand twisted wildly as if it had come to life.

In just a short moment, Lin Feng withdrew his right hand, and the deep red dot on the girl's wrist had completely disappeared.

"Look, the toxins in your body have already been stripped away by me," Lin Feng said.

The girl was stunned, casting a look of disbelief at Lin Feng.

"Big Brother, you... who exactly are you?" the girl asked.

"Don't worry about who I am. You just need to know that the toxins in your body have been neutralized by me. From now on, you don't need to worry about this toxin flaring up anymore," Lin Feng said.

Afterward, Lin Feng took out his phone and dialed Xiao Jian's number.

"I have a small problem here; bring some people over to handle it," Lin Feng ordered.

Although he was woken up in the middle of the night by Lin Feng and felt angry inside, Xiao Jian didn't dare to say even a single unpleasant word. Instead, he replied respectfully: "Yes, yes, yes, Mr. Lin, please wait a moment; I'll be there right away."

Xiao Jian arrived at the location, understood the situation, and then took the girl away.

The remaining matters didn't require Lin Feng to worry. If Xiao Jian, the General Captain of the Dragon Soul Branch, couldn't handle a small pickpocket group, then he should just find a block of tofu and smash his head against it to die!

The next morning, just as Lin Feng was preparing to leave the hotel for the Wu Family Mansion, Xiao Jian called.

"Mr. Lin, that Rat Group has already been taken down by us. All the female pickpockets have been rescued, and those five management guys have already been thrown into prison and will be sentenced soon," Xiao Jian said over the phone.

Lin Feng asked: "What about that pharmacist who was the leader?"

"He is already dead."

Xiao Jian chuckled and continued his report: "When we carried out the arrest operation last night, the head of the Rat Group actually resisted, so we killed him on the spot. That guy was a Martial Artist, but his strength wasn't high; he was only an Acquired Martial Artist. Although he had mastered medical and poison arts, they weren't very impressive."

"The toxins in those female pickpockets have already been neutralized by the antidote developed by our Dragon Soul pharmacist. They are all fine now."

Lin Feng asked: "How were those female pickpockets handled?"

"Considering they were all victims and were coerced, we treated them with leniency and released them all," Xiao Jian replied.

"Hmm, very good. I am very satisfied with this outcome," Lin Feng nodded.

The problem of the Rat Group ended there.

This was originally just a small-scale group of thugs, so of course, it was nothing to Lin Feng; it was just a trivial, sesame-sized matter.

"Mr. Lin, don't forget about tonight's banquet," Xiao Jian reminded him with a smile.

"I will go and attend," Lin Feng said.

"Good, good, good. Thank you, thank you," Xiao Jian thanked him repeatedly.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Feng went downstairs to leave the hotel, but he didn't expect to run into the girl who had snuck into his room to steal things last night right outside the hotel entrance.

"Big Brother! Big Brother!"

As soon as the girl saw Lin Feng, her eyes lit up, and she ran over excitedly.

Lin Feng frowned and said: "Why are you still here? You wouldn't be thinking of stealing from me again, would you?"

The girl waved her hands repeatedly: "How could that be? I have already washed my hands of it; I don't need to steal things anymore."

"That's good," Lin Feng said.

The girl continued: "Big Brother, I will turn over a new leaf and be a good person, so don't you worry! Besides, you helped me so much, I must thank you!"

"How do you plan to thank me? Don't say anything about sleeping with me; I have no interest in you," Lin Feng said.

A look of disappointment immediately appeared on the girl's face.

Although she still didn't know what Lin Feng's name was or who he was, the methods Lin Feng had displayed had deeply shocked her.

Moreover, last night, Lin Feng had called the General Captain of the Dragon Soul Branch over with a single phone call, and after the General Captain arrived at the scene, he was incredibly respectful toward Lin Feng.

Even if this girl were a fool, she could guess that Lin Feng's identity was certainly not simple and that he definitely had a powerful background. Since that was the case, of course, she wanted to latch onto Lin Feng's powerful thigh.

And for a woman, the simplest and most direct way to latch onto a man's powerful thigh was to have a physical relationship with him. But now that Lin Feng had rejected her so directly, it had suddenly blocked this path; how could she not be disappointed?

"Big Brother, don't be so cold-hearted..." the girl said softly.

"I have things to do; I don't have time to waste words with you here."

After saying this, Lin Feng waved to hail a taxi, got in, and left.

Watching the taxi speed away, the girl gritted her teeth and said: "You can drive me away, but I won't be driven off. It's not easy to meet a noble person; how can I let go so easily!"

Not long after, Lin Feng arrived outside the gate of the Wu Family Mansion.
