Chapter 52: Lin Feng, the Gifted

Zhu Li chose a BMW 5 Series sedan.

Purchase tax, insurance, and all the paperwork came to over 600,000.

It would be another week before she could pick up the car.

Returning to Xinshi Xiaoqu, as soon as she got out of the car, Zhu Li eagerly started looking at the parking spaces.

She wasn't looking at which parking space the car was stopped in.

but was imagining in her mind how to back the car into a space.

This community has been around for years, and its occupancy rate exceeds eighty percent.

Moreover, most people own a car.

The cars in the underground garage are packed full, and the good parking spots are basically all taken.

The remaining spots are either too small, or the driving space is right next to a pillar.

Parking in such a spot, getting in and out might require squeezing into the car.

If one is a bit overweight, it becomes even more troublesome.

"How's your driving skill?"

Lin Feng glanced over, smiling as he asked.

Zhu Li gave Lin Feng a charming look and said, "What do you mean?"

Lin Feng replied irritably, "Don't think wildly; I'm talking about your BMW."

Zhu Li gave a helpless expression: "My driving skills are worse than Coco's! Driving on the road is fine, but backing into a parking space feels really troublesome."

"Why don't you practice with my car?"

Lin Feng suggested.

Zhu Li looked eager to try.

Lin Feng first drove the car out of the spot, then gave Zhu Li a detailed explanation on the spot and demonstrated several times.

Then he let Zhu Li get in and control the car while he stayed outside to direct.

When he saw Zhu Li backing up and even getting the direction reversed, he knew that in this short moment it was impossible for her to learn to back into a space.

Forget it, better just buy a parking spot!

Zhu Li got out of the car with a dejected look.

"It's fine, just practice more."

Lin Feng smiled and comforted Zhu Li, then found a place where three parking spots were connected.

Three cars were parked in the spots, but there were no signs above the three spots.

Indicating that these three spots had not yet been sold.

Financially speaking, buying a parking spot here is not cost-effective; it's better to rent.

A parking spot costs several hundred thousand, whereas renting it is only 3,600 per year.

Moreover, after buying a spot you still have to pay management fees, and you wouldn't break even even in thirty years.

After noting the numbers of the three spots, Lin Feng and Zhu Li went to the property management office.

At that time, the property office had not yet closed.

Upon hearing that Lin Feng wanted to buy a parking spot, and even three at once, the property manager was overjoyed.

It's worth mentioning that the property office here is a subsidiary of the developer.

"I want these three spots: 101, 102, and 103."

Lin Feng said calmly.

The property manager took out the layout plan of the spots, had a look, and asked his subordinates to check; the three adjacent spots were all unsold.

The three spots belong to three different price tiers.

They are 120,000, 140,000, and 160,000 respectively.

After signing the purchase contract, Lin Feng took out his bank card and paid 420,000 by card.

The parking spots also come with property certificates, which will take some time to obtain.

The property office promised that once Zhu Li's car gets its official license plate, they will hang private parking signs on the three spots.

"Now you can relax! With three spots, that much space, you can park vertically, horizontally, or diagonally."

Leaving the property management office, Lin Feng said with a smile.

"Dear, you're wonderful!"

Zhu Li, heedless of onlookers' gazes, wrapped her arms around Lin Feng, tiptoed, and kissed him on the cheek.

Lin Feng didn't go upstairs; when he reached the elevator doors, he told Zhu Li, "I have something to do tonight, so I won't stay. Go to bed early, and don't forget to go to work tomorrow."

"Got it, I still have to pay rent!" Zhu Li said with a laugh.

Back inside, Zhu Li sat on the sofa, took out the bank card Lin Feng had given her, and wore a smile.

Everything she wanted, she had already obtained.

The bank card in her hand had one million!

As for this money, she knew how to spend it.

Buy handbags, high-end cosmetics, nice clothes, sexy underwear…

Then take out some cash to send home, improve the family's life, and set aside some to save.

Even if Lin Feng later no longer wants her, saving some money on the side would give her a fallback.

That million couldn't be spent in just a month or two; at least it would take half a year!

Spending two or three million a year would also be fine.

If it were tens of millions or hundreds of millions, that would be excessive.

Lin Feng is rich, but you still can't treat him like a sheep to be sheared.

Only an immature, greedy woman would do that.

Zhu Li has seen too many women; because she doesn't know how to restrain herself, she ends up being despised.

Suddenly, Zhu Li slapped her own face and muttered to herself, "What are you thinking! You didn't just set your eyes on his money…"

9 p. m.

A Criminal Investigation Detachment in Yanjing.

The atmosphere in the conference room felt very heavy.

"How many incidents have occurred today? All of them are suicides, all using the same method—what a coincidence!"

"Yes! I also think it's too coincidental, but after the on‑site investigation, we found no trace left by any suspect."

"No trace doesn't mean they're all suicides. Think about it—what common traits do the victims share?"

"As for common traits… both men and women, ages around thirty, those aren't really common traits. However, each person is either an executive or a shareholder of a listed company, which means they all have money."

A dozen or so police officers smoked while discussing the case.

Finally, someone looked at Qi Yao, who sat silently beside them, and asked, "Professor Qi, what do you think of this case?"

Qi Yao replied calmly, "It is a homicide, but with our current investigative methods we lack the ability to find clues. However… I think there is someone who could do it."

"Who?"

Detachment Captain Liu Feng frowned and asked.

Qi Yao said, "Lin Feng."

Liu Feng wore a puzzled expression.

Obviously, he had never heard of the person.

But someone laughed.

"Li Fei, why are you laughing?" Liu Feng asked, frowning.

The police officer named Li Fei glanced at Qi Yao and laughed, "He's the young man who, last time, bravely intervened and captured the serial female killer; he's on good terms with Professor Qi."

"Oh?"

Liu Feng looked at Qi Yao.

Qi Yao explained, "Lin Feng has great talent in criminal investigation, mainly because of his innate abilities."

His eyesight, sense of smell, hearing, and memory are many times stronger than those of ordinary people. A person like that can normally sense information that others cannot.

"He's not one of us!"

Someone frowned and said.

Liu Feng took a deep drag of his cigarette and said, "To solve the case and quickly find the murderer, preventing further attacks and protecting the lives and property of the people, we can hire him as a consultant."

"However, we still need to ask his opinion. Professor Qi, please first communicate with Mr. Lin; if he agrees, we'll proceed with the formalities."

"Alright!" Qi Yao nodded.

Liu Feng added, "Now, with the development of technology, acquiring information has become more efficient and convenient, and suspects' criminal methods are becoming increasingly sophisticated."

"We must discard the old, outdated mindset, and even talent outside the system should be absorbed to serve our nation and its people…"
