The Magnificent Son-in-law
Chapter 1407 - 1407: Methods of Transmitting Information
"No, no, no, ten laps, just ten laps, we'll run right away!"
Outside the door, everyone scattered, afraid that Xiao Feng would raise the stakes.
Hui Shiqi, with a troubled expression, lifted the crutch in his hand: "Brother Feng, as you can see, I can't run. How about..."
Before he finished speaking, he was forcibly dragged away by those around him on either side.
Inside the room, Lao Ha, looking down obediently, said: "Boss, should I go run too?"
"You don't need to." Xiao Feng chuckled and said, "If you hadn't opened the door directly, I wouldn't have known there were so many people outside."
"Uh... Boss, please don't tease me. With your skills, you must have noticed us long ago." Lao Ha said with a smile.
Xiao Feng shook his head slowly: "Actually, you don't need any special skills. Just look there."
As he spoke, he pointed towards the back of the door.
Lao Ha turned to look, stunned on the spot.
At the door, there was a display screen, showing the outside of the door.
"..." Lao Ha.
When was this thing installed?
...
Early the next morning, Xiao Feng, with Lu Lishuang, arrived at Yuehu Reservoir.
Choosing to bring her here was mainly based on three considerations.
First aspect: Lu Lishuang is very low-maintenance, showing little emotion towards anything other than killing or arson.
Second aspect: Convenient for surveillance, preventing her from harming his subordinates.
Third aspect: Free chauffeur, saving unnecessary taxi fares.
The two arrived at the third barrier gate, finding the situation as Xiao Feng anticipated, the bomb had already been retrieved.
As for where it was placed, it was still unknown for the time being.
Brother Cat's car was still safely parked in its original spot, but Xiao Feng did not intend to drive it away.
Partly to avoid the unnecessary hassle of getting rear-ended, and partly due to his knowledge of the Devil's Concentration Camp.
That seemingly normal car has definitely been tampered with.
Either the brakes fail, or it explodes as soon as you hit the accelerator.
Of course, another crucial reason is... he doesn't have the keys.
The keys are with Yao Qianxue; it would take some effort to drive it away.
Just as he was contemplating, Yao Qianxue's call came through.
After answering, Xiao Feng heard Yao Qianxue say: "Yesterday, we left the car at Yuehu Reservoir. If you have time, could we go together to bring the car back?"
"I'm already at Yuehu Reservoir, no rush with the car, it's likely been tampered with. Let's leave it here for a couple of days, I'll talk to Brother Cat, you don't have to worry about it."
"Oh." Yao Qianxue responded, her tone calm but seemingly tinged with a hint of disappointment.
After a bit of casual chatting, they hung up the call.
Beside him, Lu Lishuang wrapped a finger around her red hair, suggesting: "How about we just set the car on fire?"
Xiao Feng opened his mouth but ultimately said nothing.
Taking out his phone, he opened the memos and reached towards Lu Lishuang: "Can I borrow your phone for a bit?"
"Here you go." Lu Lishuang handed it over readily.
Receiving the phone, Xiao Feng logged into a forum, searching the first account on his memo.
The account nickname was quite unconventional, reminiscent of a middle school student.
Xiao Feng clicked onto the account's personal space, discovering the person had posted a sentiment twenty minutes ago, stating: "Fried chicken drumsticks are really a batch of garbage, not tasty and greasy."
Seeing the message, Xiao Feng exited the personal space and searched for the second account, repeating the process.
This account had also updated a status twenty minutes ago.
Content: "Playing guitar, playing piano, what should I choose instead? Headache-ied..."
Taking a glance, Xiao Feng shifted his eyes to his own phone, searching for the next nickname as per the memo, proceeding as before.
This account had posted a status: "In that distant place, there is a good girl, people passing by her tent always turn back to fondly gaze..."
After searching through all accounts on the memo, ten minutes had gone by.
This was precisely Tang Yunshu's method of conveying information.
Accounts are ranked sequentially; each status extracts the first character, stringing them together to form the intended message.
This time, the message Tang Yunshu conveyed was: "The bomb is with me, the mole is Gray Mouse."
"Whew..." Xiao Feng sighed in relief.
Though the operation process was cumbersome, he had to admit he was quite satisfied with Tang Yunshu's caution.
This is a natural double-dealer, not being an undercover agent is truly a waste of talent!
"Let's go." Xiao Feng returned the phone to Lu Lishuang and called out.
"Where to?"
"The Demon Suppression Action Team headquarters, you should know where it is, right?"
Lu Lishuang furrowed her brows: "Didn't we agree that I'd report after a fight with the Demon Suppression Action Team?"
"This time, it's for official business, you don't have to reveal you're the deputy team leader, just consider it as familiarizing yourself with the work environment and going undercover."
Hearing Xiao Feng say this, Lu Lishuang reluctantly agreed, drove towards the Demon Suppression Action Team headquarters.
While in the car, Xiao Feng looked at Lu Lishuang and asked: "Aren't you curious about what I was doing with your phone earlier?"
"I know."
"You know?" Xiao Feng asked in surprise.
Lu Lishuang chuckled: "Although I don't really understand these matters, men borrowing a phone from the opposite gender for so long probably just want to snoop into someone's privacy.
Unfortunately, your urge to snoop won't be satisfied by me."
"..." Xiao Feng.
What the hell is this!
"I didn't snoop into your privacy..." Xiao Feng said with a dark face.
Lu Lishuang responded with an "Oh."
Then...
No follow-up.
Xiao Feng lightly furrowed his brows: "Really not the slightest bit curious?"
Lu Lishuang responded perplexed: "What's there to be curious about? You weren't using my phone for murder or arson."
Fine!
Wasted effort!
Xiao Feng internally gave up probing Lu Lishuang, but why did he feel that something still seemed off?
However, after thinking it over for a long time, he couldn't figure out what exactly was off.
Unable to resolve it, Xiao Feng had no choice but to let go of the issue, simply noting that, as a tool person, Lu Lishuang was by far the most low-maintenance he'd used!
Gathering his thoughts, Xiao Feng focused on the task at hand.
The upcoming task was simple yet complex.
Tang Yunshu had already appointed Gray Mouse as the mole, so the next step involved crafting evidence proving Gray Mouse was an undercover agent within the Demon Suppression Action Team.
This evidence didn't need to be overly detailed; just a basic procedure would suffice.
Subsequent steps would be refined and completed based on the details Tang Yunshu provided.
The key lies in whether Hua Ling would cooperate.
Considering Hua Ling's character, if Gong Kaishan and Qian Shaoyuan exaggerated their report, there might be some complications.
Though the issue isn't too severe, it's about how to shore up the story.
