Chapter 1251 - 1251: To Beat the Little Fairy, You Still Have to Watch the Old Man

After uttering harsh words, Hua Ling took a few deep breaths to calm down swiftly.

"Based on the currently known information, since that rat knows that I'm the team leader of the Demon Suppression Action Team, it means there must be an internal mole.

To be cautious, while catching the rat, we also cannot give up on finding the mole.

Most of the core members seldom go out, and even if they do, there's a strict time limit.

So, the most likely source of leaks is still the peripheral members."

This deduction is logical and clear, and it also points out a general direction.

Xiao Feng couldn't help but clap, yet he didn't forget to give some eye drops to a certain technician: "Not necessarily. Take Qian Shaoyuan for example.

He used to often secretly wear Gong Kaishan's clothes to go out and flirt with girls. You know, after drinking, one might not only lose virtue but also let slip words."

"That was before. Ever since I took over the Demon Suppression Action Team, there haven't been any such incidents." Hua Ling pondered for a moment and said, "However, hearing you say this, Qian Shaoyuan indeed seems suspicious.

Just now at the front desk, he even proactively asked to share a room with me. If he's the mole, he definitely wants to monitor me."

"Brilliant! Truly brilliant!" Xiao Feng raised his thumbs, holding back his laughter: "You are the smartest person I've ever met!"

"Hmph! You've got some discernment!"

Hua Ling was full of pride, perfectly embodying the saying "Give an inch, take a mile."

Xiao Feng thought to himself, the first step seems to be underway.

If all goes as expected, Hua Ling should focus some effort on finding the mole.

As for the outcome, it will depend on the response of that scoundrel, remaining scum, and conniving clown combined...

Namely, the grand leader of the Demon Suppression Action Team, Ma Yuliang.

Sure enough, Hua Ling said: "The grand leader is in Kyoto. I have to find time to report this situation to him and let him order an internal self-examination.

I'm Pei Dengke's leader, and he's mine. You just mentioned hitting the dog...

No!

The saying needs to be altered, to 'Even little fairies need to watch out for old-timers.'

Anyway, whatever happens, I must first consult the grand leader."

"Makes sense." Xiao Feng nodded in agreement.

Based on his understanding of Ma Yuliang, he estimated that the other party wouldn't take this matter to heart.

However, he didn't need the Demon Suppression Action Team to actually conduct an internal investigation; he only needed to bring the Tea Master Training Class into the view of the upper echelons of the Demon Suppression Action Team.

Then, find a way to create a feeling that the rat behind the Tea Master Training Class is eagerly plotting against the Demon Suppression Action Team yet remains unclear on the specifics.

Thinking of this, Xiao Feng chuckled softly to himself, considering it a taste of one's own medicine.

Since the rat could manipulate Wang Tingwei to control Tang Mingbo, leveraging the relationship between Tang Mingbo and the third master against him,

then he could also use the Demon Suppression Action Team to catch this rat!

"By the way, does Qi Guanghe's serious injury have anything to do with you?" Hua Ling suddenly asked.

Xiao Feng shook his head in denial: "It has nothing to do with me, but I was in the hospital that day when he got seriously injured."

"What happened, tell me in detail."

Xiao Feng didn't hide anything, fully recounting the incident along with Wang Tingwei's narrative.

Hua Ling rubbed his chin and said: "In that case, there's no need to expend energy conducting an exhaustive investigation.

Let Wang Tingwei know that she should indulge in whatever she wants to eat and drink, and cherish this hard-won free time."

"Are you planning to catch Wang Tingwei?"

"What else?" Hua Ling blinked: "Our purpose here is to catch the culprit behind Qi Guanghe's serious injury. If it weren't for my intentions to have more fun… ahem.

I mean, if it weren't for your face, she wouldn't even have these last few days of freedom."

Xiao Feng pondered for a moment and said: "I think it's better not to arrest Wang Tingwei just yet, because although she bears responsibility in Qi Guanghe's case, she didn't intentionally intend to push him down from the third floor.

Moreover, once Wang Tingwei is caught, the Tea Master Training Class might sense something, and by then, stirring them will complicate the matter of catching the mole."

Upon hearing this, Hua Ling suspiciously scrutinized Xiao Feng: "Is Wang Tingwei pretty or something?"

Xiao Feng declared earnestly: "I've explained my reasons for not arresting him very clearly, and it has nothing directly to do with whether she is pretty."

Still somewhat skeptical, Hua Ling observed Xiao Feng's expression for a while, finding no flaws, and only then nodded: "Alright, I'll trust you this time!

However, since we're here, we must follow the procedures.

Later, I'll bring Gong Kaishan and the others to the hospital. You should come along too."

"If I were Xiao Feng, I would go. But right now, I'm Xiao Bajia, so I shouldn't openly associate with you."

"You can take off your mask and come along, and when you're alone with me, revert to your original face—this looks so awkward!"

Xiao Feng refused: "This matter can't be explained in just a few words; I'll explain it to you gradually later.

For now, just remember that Xiao Feng is in Jiangcheng, and anything happening in Kyoto has nothing to do with him, that's enough."

...

After a long conversation, Xiao Feng finally managed to pull the girl aspiring to "stop being human" back from the edge of the cliff.

Hua Ling had taken Gong Kaishan and others to the hospital to go through the motions… ahem.

It should be to console Qi Guanghe's family, learn about the incident, visit witnesses, and so on.

Sitting on the sofa, Xiao Feng paid no heed to Meng Ke'Er, who was still curled up in the suitcase, unable to move or speak, and appeared to be contemplating...

"Why is there no response?"

He muttered softly, starting to ponder why there was no action from Qiu Junxian's side yet.

Logically, Meng Ke'Er's importance to him was beyond doubt.

Xiao Feng initially judged that, latest by dawn, he would receive a call from Qiu Junxian.

Yet in reality, the phone remained quiet up to this moment.

Just then, a call came from his pocket.

Xiao Feng smiled, thinking that right after wondering why there was no action, action had indeed come...

"Hmm?"

Seeing a video invitation from the little girl, Xiao Feng walked to the balcony and connected the video call.

As soon as the connection was made, he saw the little girl with an adoring expression: "Brother Xiao Feng, I'm so in awe of you!

You said previously there might be another visitor from the Bai Family, and guess what?

Early this morning, Bai Tieniu actually showed up!"

Xiao Feng's eyes flickered several times, it seemed that old Bai Huanyu was still scheming.

Judging by the time, the matter of the Original Heart Pill should soon be exposed, right?

With this in mind, Xiao Feng asked, "What did Bai Tieniu say?"

The little girl replied: "He said his dad has something big to discuss with you, and then we followed your instruction—had Tie Niu disguised as you, appearing by the window, and that sent him away."
