Chapter 419: Old Xie's Staff

"Sir, are you alright just now?"

After returning home, Butler Liao looked at Xie Fu, who was sitting on the sofa deep in thought, and asked with a concerned expression.

Xie Fu smiled and said, "I'm fine! That kid wouldn't dare do anything to me."

"The deaths of Kevin and Dai—was that really his doing?"

Butler Liao asked curiously.

Xie Fu nodded and said, "He even admitted it himself."

Butler Liao frowned, "He's truly audacious, daring to attack your guest."

Xie Fu waved his hand, "Young people, huh! They always act impulsively, but after learning a lesson, they become obedient."

Butler Liao nodded and asked, "Should we tell Kevin and David's families about this? Though there's no evidence, I believe they'd rather trust your word than the police's findings."

Xie Fu shook his head and said, "We'll discuss it in a few days; give that kid some time to think."

Although he was old, Xie Fu still harbored great ambition, his desire filled with money.

It is said that Mi Guo has a Laboratory developing a gene technology that can greatly extend human lifespan.

When the technology matures, living longer will require money.

And not just ordinary money.

In other words, the more money one has in the future, the longer one can live.

Xie Fu believed Lin Feng would eventually haggle with him again.

Unless he spends his whole life cooped up inside, never going out to do business.

For the 20% share of the Tech Park, Xie Fu knew he was being a lion with a big mouth.

But negotiations, like buying and selling.

Sellers usually set high prices, and buyers will definitely bargain.

An item originally worth 100 yuan, if listed at 1,000 yuan, even after a 90% cut still makes a profit, doesn't it?

Xie Fu's expectation was to obtain a percentage share of the Tech Park.

After coming to his senses, Xie Fu looked at the staff in his hand.

It was then he recalled that Lin Feng had tampered with the staff.

Just as he was about to unscrew the staff's head, the mobile phone on the coffee table rang.

The caller ID showed a stranger's number.

Butler Liao, standing nearby, took the phone and switched to speakerphone.

"Hello~"

【9】 Butler Liao frowned and said.

Steward Liao frowned and said.

From the phone came Lin Feng's voice, "Is Mr. Xie there?"

Butler Liao laughed, "The sir is listening! Mr. Lin, please speak."

Xie Fu smiled, gripping the staff head with both hands, a look of triumph on his face.

Lin Feng said with a smile, "After careful consideration, I think Old Turtle Xie, you should stop your delusional fantasies."

As the words finished, Xie Fu was stunned.

It was completely different from what he had guessed.

"Hmph!"

Xie Fu let out a cold snort and slammed the staff onto the floor beneath his feet.

"Boom~"

A deafening blast.

The Bieshu's living room erupted in flames.

The explosion's force was small.

But Xie Fu died on the spot, and Butler Liao was lifted by the shockwave, thrown into the air, and crashed heavily onto the ground.

The estate's guards, after regaining their senses, rushed into the living room.

The living room was already a wreck, littered with shards of broken glass.

Xie Fu had been blown apart beyond recognition.

Looking at Butler Liao, a fragment of glass from the coffee table was lodged in his forehead.

Lin Feng cleared his ears.

When the explosion occurred, a huge bang echoed, making his ears buzz.

At that moment, Secretary Tang was eating skewers, her cheeks puffed out.

The explosion sound from the phone could be heard from far away.

After putting down the skewer, Tang asked curiously.

Lin Feng said with a smile, "I don't know, but it seems an explosion occurred over Old Xie's side."

Tang is getting smarter now.

When Lin Feng said that, she immediately guessed, "Did you tamper with his staff?"

"That has nothing to do with me; I just put the explosives and flint together..."

Lin Feng explained with an innocent expression.

Innocent? As if!

That's not what Lin said at all.

Since seeing Xie Fu that day, Lin Feng had noticed the old man's staff in his hand.

With his keen hearing, he knew Xie Fu's staff had a mechanism.

I have no idea what Old Xie went through before, but his cane was packed with a lot of emergency items.

After dismantling the cane, Lin Feng placed inside a piece that would ignite with violent shaking.

Originally, Lin Feng made this thing just to scare Old Xie.

Unexpectedly, Old Xie's cane actually contained explosives, and I scraped a bit of the packing paper off the explosives with my fingernail.

As soon as a flame appears in the cane's cavity, the explosives will ignite.

Lin Feng's hand moved quickly, and at that moment Xie Fu didn't notice anything wrong.

Seeing Tang Mi's curious expression, Lin Feng smiled and explained: "Some people use the same tool for decades and develop a habit.

And that tool has almost become a part of their body.

Old Xie's cane is like that; even though I moved it at the time, he thought I was only taking the listening device away.

He would of course think to check the cane after I touched it, but because of the habit, it was easily overlooked.

Then I discovered that when Xie Fu is extremely angry, he forcefully plants the cane into the ground.

In fact, Lin Feng didn't have a guaranteed chance of success.

Just consider it a game!

It actually worked.

After Lin Feng finished, Tang Mi widened her eyes and asked, "So, when he got angry then, wouldn't we have been in trouble?"

"So…"

Lin Feng said calmly, "When he put forward such shady terms, I didn't even scold him.

It was you who called him an old turtle; at that time I was extremely worried, constantly ready to snatch the cane from his hand when he got angry."

Lin Feng wore a look of lingering fear.

In reality, he wasn't afraid at all.

Because his hand could move faster than Xie Fu's actions.

The explosion at Xie Fu's Bieshu occurred at around three in the afternoon.

Ten or so minutes later, the police arrived.

After a brief investigation, they learned that Xie Fu's cane had exploded.

Retrieving the Bieshu's surveillance footage, they found a video of Xie Fu unscrewing the cane and putting something inside.

Next, a group of people broke into the manor and clashed with its guards.

Xie Fu was forcibly taken away.

Of course, in the end the investigation pointed back at Lin Feng.

Morning of September 2nd.

Lin Feng was summoned to the police station, supposedly to assist the investigation.

Lin Feng "reported" the events of the previous day.

It was Xie Jushi who sent people to forcibly break into the hospital and take him away; he had no choice but to invite Xie Jushi to a certain hotel as a guest.

As for the explosion, it had nothing to do with him.

After Lin Feng's lawyer arrived, Lin Feng was quickly released.

First, there was no evidence linking Lin Feng to the explosion.

Second, the investigation department found evidence of Lin Feng's innocence.

After Xie Fu's death, his subordinates were disunited; some, when questioned by the police, voluntarily disclosed certain matters.

Such as the source of the relatively rare explosives in Xie Fu's cane…

In the afternoon of September 2nd, the people sent by the Kevin and David families arrived.

But after a short stay, the visitors immediately left on a private jet.

"How did they leave?"

Tang Mi was puzzled.

Under normal circumstances, the people sent by the Kevin and David families would conduct a thorough investigation.

It makes no sense to leave after only two or three hours.

Lin Feng smiled without replying.

In fact, once Xie Fu died, there was no need for him to pull any more strings.

Xie Fu was, in his youth, something of a warlord.

He had many people who fell under his hand.

Nobody knows how many enemies he made.

With Xie Fu's death, these people swarmed like sharks.

Suddenly, a flood of scandalous information about the old man surfaced.

Some leaked rumors, while others hurried to cover for the old man.

Some matters also involved the Kevin and David families.

Compared to the causes of Kevin and David's deaths, handling these issues is far more troublesome.

"So after all this, they'll still investigate, right!"

Tang Mi frowned and said.

Lin Feng shook his head, "No, they won't!"

"Why?"

Tang Mi asked curiously.

Lin Feng smiled and said, "Because Kevin and David both have dirty hands and feet; they got involved with Xie Fu's woman."

Xie Fu is getting old, but those women are only in their thirties…

After speaking, Lin Feng let out a breath.

Take it as a warning!

When you're old, stop messing around recklessly.

Tang Mi wore a look of surprise.

How did Lin Feng find out about these things?

Lin Feng shook his head and said, "It was originally the later plan, could have been very spectacular, but unfortunately it can't be used now…"
