Chapter 1253 - 1253: Ye Kuto Master's New Work

In a certain three-star hotel in Kyoto, Xiao Feng sat on the sofa, his gaze calm and deep, plotting how to dupe the second generation elites of Kyoto.

On the bed, Meng Ke'Er lay on her back, expressionless, her eyes lifeless, as if she had already despaired of this world.

Were it not for the fact that her clothes were neat, anyone who saw her would be tempted to suspect that she had gone through some unspeakable ordeal.

But the truth was, Xiao Feng had merely put headphones on her, playing in repetition a new "work" by Master Ye Kuto.

It's worth mentioning that the new piece included Meng Ke'Er's name, more directly targeted, with more "intensity" than the previous phone recording, and an improvement in sound quality.

All in all, it could be considered a specially customized version…

At this moment, Xiao Feng had a general direction in mind, deciding to start with Dong Min from the three Dong sisters.

This is almost like going to war; if you can first take down the strongest general, the rest are not worth worrying about.

Of course, if there was enough time, Xiao Feng could advance step by step, but as it stands now, there's not much time to waste.

"This time, going back to Jiangcheng, I must blackmail the Chang father and son family properly." Xiao Feng muttered to himself.

In fact, his concern for the situation in Jiangcheng was mostly due to Wang Lubo, the Chang family, and other supporters of his.

Otherwise, what kind of influence could the antics of the people in Kyoto really have on him?

After all, the Original Heart Pill is a unique commodity, and no strong competitor has appeared as of yet. No matter how wide the Kyoto powers' reach, they can't cut off his financial resources!

As for Du Qingyue's amorous escapades, they are purely about fulfilling dreams; saying it's about love isn't accurate, but it isn't a primary economic source, so shutting it down is no big deal.

Of course, if it ever got to the point where Jiangcheng "fell," staying out of it would be unrealistic. Odds are, they'd be attacked concerning the reputation and reviews of the Original Heart Pill, affecting its sales.

Just then, with a "click," the door was pushed open.

Hua Ling yawned as she entered, saying, "This is so boring, it would be better to get a good night's sleep... Who put her on the bed?"

"Then where do you think I should put her?" Xiao Feng responded irritably.

"Under the bed, in the cupboard, or even on the sofa, anywhere's better than the bed." Hua Ling grumbled with dissatisfaction. "Also, you're letting her listen to music.

Why are you being so considerate of her, what's your agenda?"

"Music?" Xiao Feng couldn't help but chuckle, "You could listen to it, and give a review while you're at it."

"I have no interest in listening!"

However, contrary to her words, her actions told a different story.

Hua Ling walked to the bedside, took the headphones off Meng Ke'Er's ears, and put them on her own, promptly showing a change in expression.

In less than half a minute, Hua Ling couldn't listen anymore and exclaimed angrily, "Whoever is spewing such foul language, aren't they afraid of getting beaten to death?"

Xiao Feng ignored her, got up and walked towards Meng Ke'Er, asking, "How does it sound?"

Upon hearing this, Meng Ke'Er's eyes gradually regained vitality, her facial muscles twitched slightly, and she gritted her teeth, saying, "Not intense enough, can it be harsher?"

Xiao Feng secretly noted her masochistic tendencies, grinned, and said, "I'm very curious, why hasn't Qiu Junxian made a grand effort to find you yet."

"Does it disappoint you that he's not looking for me?"

"Not exactly disappointed, just a little strange."

"Well… you can go ahead and keep wondering."

Seeing the other party uncooperative, Xiao Feng snatched the headphones from Hua Ling and, without a word, was about to put them back on Meng Ke'Er's ears.

Meng Ke'Er's eyes flashed with fear, but she still tried her best to remain calm, showing a seemingly nonchalant attitude.

Still, she finally succumbed to Master Ye Kuto's "oral magic," and said, "Wait!"

Xiao Feng blinked, waiting to hear what she had to say next.

Meng Ke'Er then said, "If I tell you the reason, can you stop making me listen to this stuff?"

"Heh heh." Xiao Feng shook his head, laughing, "It seems you still don't understand your position, do you think you're in any position to negotiate?

Regarding the fact that Qiu Junxian hasn't made a grand effort to find you, I'm merely curious, I don't necessarily need to know why.

Whether he looks for you or not, would it really affect me significantly?"

After a pause, Xiao Feng added, "Besides, I already have the answer."

"Let's hear it."

"If I'm not mistaken, you must have arranged with Qiu Junxian in advance, that no matter when you suddenly disappear, there should be no citywide search for you.

The reason is simple: if the commotion is too big, that rat up there will notice.

As a result, when you reappear, that rat will brand you with a suspicion label, which doesn't serve your interests."

Hearing this, a tinge of fear flashed in Meng Ke'Er's eyes!

This seemingly ordinary man, why does he have such terrifying deductive abilities, connecting even the tiniest clues to form a large picture.

Yet, annoyingly, those things are all true...

Thinking about this, Meng Ke'Er couldn't help but grow more curious, took a deep breath, and asked, "The forces behind you, are they official or private?"

When she asked whether they were official or private, she was essentially inquiring about whether they were governmental or civilian.

Xiao Feng sneered, put the headphones back into her ears, letting her continue to listen to Master Ye Kuto's "heavenly voice."

"Speaking of serious matters, you won't let us catch the real murderer, we can't possibly leave without any results, right?" Hua Ling crossed her arms and questioned.

Xiao Feng shrugged, "With your intelligence, you should be able to see that the purpose of establishing a special investigation group isn't to find the culprit, right?"

"Ahem, I had naturally figured that out long ago." Hua Ling said with a stern face, "However, let me test you, why do you think the special investigation group was established."

Xiao Feng obviously saw that she had no clue.

He didn't plan to expose her, but explained, "In my opinion, the entry of the special investigation group into Kyoto holds more symbolic than practical significance.

It mainly represents the Demon Suppression Action Team's concern for its members, establishing a positive image."

Of course, Xiao Feng didn't mention that this was more a passive measure.

After all, with the Qi Family causing such a scene, ignoring it, pretending it wasn't seen, would be like deceiving oneself.

At the same time, this would be a blow to the intimidation power of the Demon Suppression Action Team.

Hua Ling nodded in agreement, "Hmm, that's what I thought too.

But!

Since this section leader personally came forward, capturing someone crucial is important to save face, otherwise how can I maintain authority back in Jiangcheng?"

In fact, the reason Hua Ling insisted on dragging Xiao Feng along for the investigation was also due to her own dignity.

In her view, as long as Xiao Feng was present, any problem could be easily solved.

Otherwise, setting off from Jiangcheng high-spirited and returning from Kyoto in disgrace, wouldn't she be embarrassed?

A fairy's dignity even needs careful attention, right?
