Chapter 1389 - 1389: A Stage Success

About half an hour later, more than a dozen professional cameras were set up around the target.

The entire Demon Suppression Action Team had nearly exhausted all their available camera equipment here.

Honestly, Xiao Feng's popularity within the Demon Suppression Action Team was dwindling, far from his earlier command.

After all, working in such a hazy state, busy for half a day without knowing the purpose, is something no one likes.

However, Xiao Feng himself didn't mind much, even felt it was quite okay this way.

Because sometimes, being too popular, overshadowing the real person in charge, is not a good thing.

The purpose of setting up so many cameras was only one — to figure out when exactly Rupert's Tear shattered.

Just a while ago, Xiao Feng had a thought.

That maybe Rupert's Tear was shot off the target paper by a bullet and then fell to the ground and shattered, rather than shattering from the bullet's impact.

This speculation might just be a mere guess.

But in any case, clarifying when Rupert's Tear shattered is a critical point!

All the cameras were turned on, Xiao Feng raised his hand and fired a shot.

"Bang!"

The bullet flew out, easily hitting Rupert's Tear at the target's center.

The result...

Just like before, Rupert's Tear shattered into pieces.

Xiao Feng wasn't surprised by this, ordering the cameras to be removed and searching for footage before and after Rupert's Tear shattered.

Ten minutes later, the footage they needed was presented before them.

In the footage, the scene of Rupert's Tear dropping to the ground and shattering was quite spectacular.

Like fireworks shooting into the sky and then scattering, breathtakingly beautiful!

Xiao Feng breathed a sigh of relief, at least this showed Rupert's Tear could withstand a bullet.

Only after this point was confirmed could subsequent steps proceed.

"Thanks!" Xiao Feng patted Hua Ling on the shoulder, turned around, and walked away crisply.

Just two steps out, a shout from behind rang: "Stop!"

"What's the matter?" Xiao Feng turned back to ask.

Li Ying said expressionlessly: "Didn't you say you were conducting an experiment?

What experiment?

Was it successful or a failure?"

Xiao Feng thought for a moment, answered: "The experiment details are temporarily confidential, as for the result, I can only say it was a phase success."

"Confidential content?" Li Ying sneered: "In terms of position, everyone present is higher than you, you say nothing and just have us busy, we absolutely won't accept this!"

Gong Kaishan and others also nodded, clearly standing on Li Ying's side.

Xiao Feng smiled, knowing that over half of Li Ying's anger was due to his rough treatment of Hua Ling earlier, so he didn't argue but continued walking.

Li Ying couldn't possibly let it rest, but just as she took a step, Hua Ling pulled her arm.

"Let him go." Hua Ling said quietly.

Li Ying was furious: "You!"

By the time she calmed down, Xiao Feng was already far away.

Li Ying pulled Hua Ling, leading her to a room nearby.

The issue with the team leader had reached a point where it could not go unsolved!

...

Leaving the Demon Suppression Action Team, Xiao Feng walked several miles before taking a taxi to Yao Qianxue's residence.

The bomb below Jiangxin Bridge had been dealt with, and the remaining two needed to be resolved.

However, thinking of the discontent he stirred earlier at the Demon Suppression Action Team and now needing to dismantle bombs, he couldn't help but feel a bit helpless.

It's a mindset similar to an undercover agent in a spy drama, misunderstood by everyone around.

The vehicle reached Yao Qianxue's neighborhood, Xiao Feng got out of the car, registered briefly at the gate, and walked into the community.

Right at the entrance, there was a large flower bed, surrounded by a clean lawn, making the environment appear quite nice.

Observing as he walked, he quickly arrived beneath Yao Qianxue's apartment building and immediately noticed a crowd gathered not far away.

"How did you park the car? Do only you have a car? What are you showing off for!" a sharp female voice emanated from the crowd.

Xiao Feng had no interest in joining the commotion and walked straight into the apartment building.

Yet just then, a familiar voice emerged: "My car was parked properly by the roadside, it was your grandson who ran into my car himself."

Xiao Feng halted, eyebrows slightly furrowed.

This voice, unmistakably, was Yao Qianxue's.

How coincidental was it to find her in trouble the moment he arrived?

But regardless, having encountered it, he naturally couldn't ignore it.

Xiao Feng walked towards the crowd, pushing his way to the front within a few steps.

He saw an aunt in her fifties, hands on her hips, in a standoff with Yao Qianxue.

The aunt's gestures were exaggerated, and her words were fairly harsh, like a big bad wolf displaying its claws.

In contrast, Yao Qianxue, standing by the car, was utterly subdued, much like a helpless little lamb.

Xiao Feng didn't rush over, instead, he asked an elderly woman with a vegetable basket beside him: "Auntie, what's the situation here?"

The auntie whispered: "It's not the young girl's fault..."

After a brief explanation, Xiao Feng roughly understood the situation.

The aunt quarreling with Yao Qianxue was notorious in the neighborhood for being unreasonable.

Beside her, a child lay crying, famously mischievous, often scratching cars parked by the roadside, throwing firecrackers into manholes, and kicking balls to smash neighbors' windows.

The current issue stemmed from the mischievous child scraping Yao Qianxue's car with a rock while riding his scooter, falling under Lu Lishuang's car wheel due to excessive speed.

Subsequently, the mischievous child's grandmother, now accusing Yao Qianxue, insisted on Yao Qianxue taking her grandson to the hospital, demanding compensation for medical expenses, nutrition costs, and so forth.

After clarifying the situation, Xiao Feng stepped out of the crowd, shouting loudly: "Come, everyone, look over here!"

Instantly, the crowd's attention turned to him, including Yao Qianxue and the aunt.

Seeing Xiao Feng, Yao Qianxue subconsciously stepped forward, her nose tingling as her eyes reddened slightly.

This was a common phenomenon; when wronged and alone, one could endure.

But upon seeing a close one, emotions would become uncontrollable.

"Do you even reason?" Xiao Feng pointed at Yao Qianxue and shouted.

Yao Qianxue froze, unable to react.

He... wasn't he supposed to help her?

The onlookers were also stunned, assuming Xiao Feng to be the aunt's relative.

This was the only reasonable explanation; otherwise, why would he side with the aunt without knowing who's right?

Not far away, the aunt was equally puzzled, but seeing the young man speaking up for her, her spirits lifted:

"Look, look, this young man understands the situation.

Let me make it clear, I don't know this young man, nor do we have any relation, he simply couldn't stand it, so he spoke up for me!

Young man, do you agree with what I said?"

Xiao Feng ignored her, continuing to press Yao Qianxue: "Why are you so polite to someone like this?"

At that, everyone present was dumbfounded once more.

This wasn't going as expected!

The aunt quickly realized, hands on hips, pointing at Xiao Feng: "Oh, you're with this vixen, aren't you?

What are you doing?

Bullying an old woman?"

Having said that, she plopped onto the ground, slapped Yao Qianxue's car door, crying out: "Someone, come and see, these two young folks are teaming up to bully an old woman.

I can't live!

I can't go on!"

Unable to hold back any longer, Yao Qianxue pushed the aunt away, stretching her arms wide to protect her beloved car.
