Eternal Life: I Rely on Fortune Points for Improvement-Chapter 95: Superior Skill

"Fourth Uncle, what do you think of this matter?"

The Second Prince asked.

"Han Dong took the account book. This was confirmed by Wu Tieshan himself. Wu Tieshan wouldn’t dare deceive you, my lord. The only possibility is that Wu Tieshan mistook someone else for Han Dong."

"And Wu Tieshan’s method of identifying Han Dong as the culprit relies solely on the Black Tiger."

"Although the Black Tiger is just a Half-Tiger Demon, it absolutely wouldn’t mistake someone; otherwise, how could it die by the hands of the Prison Army?"

"I dare to conclude that the person who took the account book is in Zhenbei Prison, holds a personal grudge against Cao Zhengyang, is far more powerful than Han Dong, and has a close relationship with Han Dong."

The old servant pondered carefully and spoke slowly.

"Throughout Zhenbei Prison, who is stronger than Han Dong and also close to Han Dong, if not Bao Longwei?"

The Second Prince said instinctively.

"My lord, Ning Hongzhuo mentioned before that his Black Tiger can deduce the opponent’s age as under thirty-five, with a Third Grade Realm cultivation. Of course, if encountering someone skilled at concealing their aura, even beasts can be misled."

The old servant added.

"Whether it’s Bao Longwei or not, investigate him thoroughly. You must find him for me!"

The Second Prince resolved.

Then he glanced at the account book on the desk, thought for a moment, and said, "Return this to Old Qi, and see how Old Qi reacts."

"Yes!"

The old servant immediately took the account book away.

A few hours later.

Sun and Moon Building.

"Bang!"

Chu Yuyan slammed the account book that the Seventh Prince had returned onto the table.

"Unbelievable, he actually sent the account book to the Second Prince. Does this matter have nothing to do with me? Hmph, now it does."

Chu Yuyan was furious.

She was tasked with drawing Han Dong to the Seventh Prince, but didn’t expect to be played by Han Dong.

Inside Zhenbei Prison.

Jiang Feng felt uneasy.

For some reason, he always felt that danger was approaching.

He wanted to ask Han Dong whom she went to visit yesterday.

But hesitated, fearing it might arouse Han Dong’s suspicion.

At the moment, he felt completely in the dark, clueless about what was about to happen.

"Prison Chief Jiang, Commander Han is looking for you."

Chief Wang suddenly came and said.

"Alright."

Jiang Feng’s heart skipped a beat.

He quickly went to Han Dong’s courtyard.

"Chu Yuyan might still seek you out. If she asks about me, just say I have nothing to do with this matter."

Upon seeing Jiang Feng, Han Dong said.

Jiang Feng was stunned; Han Dong didn’t go to find Chu Yuyan last night. So who did she meet?

"Did you hear me?"

Han Dong saw Jiang Feng was distracted.

"Oh, I heard, Sister Dong. There’s something I don’t understand. Why does Chu Yuyan keep thinking of me?"

Jiang Feng asked curiously.

"Because you’re the Little Prison Chief and can get in touch with me."

Han Dong said casually.

Jiang Feng thought carefully and suddenly realized.

It’s just that simple.

The Seventh Prince wants Han Dong to become his person opportunely without attracting attention from anyone other than the Second Prince. Using him as a messenger is most fitting.

Just like Han Dong said.

Such a small prison chief wouldn’t attract much attention yet could connect with Han Dong, so why not?

Of course, this also comprises Chu Yuyan’s reason for wanting to capture Jiang Feng.

"A bit unclear."

On the surface, Jiang Feng pretended to be puzzled.

"Some things don’t need to be fully understood. You can go now!"

Han Dong didn’t explain further.

Jiang Feng then returned to the workshop.

He felt more and more nervous; Han Dong’s phrase ’I have nothing to do with this matter’ evidently meant she knew but felt unjustly involved.

He just didn’t know who she visited yesterday.

Jiang Feng kept feeling like he was standing at the edge of a cliff, perilously close to danger.

"Prison Chief Jiang, there’s a girl named Ah Bi at the door, saying she wants to see you."

Chief Feng suddenly came and said.

"Ah Bi, Chu Yuyan’s maid, came so quickly?"

Jiang Feng was startled inwardly.

Instinctively thinking, did Chu Yuyan not get a response from Han Dong, specifically sending Ah Bi to ask what happened?

Later.

Jiang Feng returned from the prison entrance.

Holding another account book in hand.

Ah Bi’s words kept echoing beside his ears: "Please tell Commander Han, things given to her by others, please keep them well, don’t return them to the owner."

"Sister Dong, oh Sister Dong, you thought by returning the account book to the Second Prince you could stay out of this, but who knew the Second Prince was malicious enough to return the book to the Seventh Prince, now it’s back in my hands, forcing you to choose a side between them."

Jiang Feng murmured to himself.

He was convinced.

Who could have guessed?

Han Dong actually returned the account book to the Second Prince.

However, although unexpected, from Han Dong’s perspective, indeed this was the most clever move.

Unfortunately.

Even Han Dong couldn’t have anticipated, the Second Prince was one step ahead, determined to drag her into the mire.

Jiang Feng composed himself.

Controlled his aura fluctuations.

Came again to Han Dong’s courtyard, smiled and said: "Sister Dong, you are truly foresighted, Chu Yuyan indeed came to find me again. She sent her maid over, asking me to return the account book to you.

I was baffled, it’s just a book, why are you two passing it back and forth? Is there some sort of code inside that I can’t decipher?"

Han Dong was shocked.

Quickly snatched the account book.

Opened it.

’I have nothing to do with this’, those six words remained.

It was precisely the account book from yesterday.

"Sister Dong, what’s wrong?"

Jiang Feng feigned innocence.

"Did the maid leave any message?"

Han Dong asked.

"She said things given to others should be kept well and not returned to the owner."

Jiang Feng reported honestly.

"Bang!"

Han Dong slammed the account book on the table.

Initially, she almost thought Chu Yuyan was also the Second Prince’s person, but those words dispelled her thoughts.

"You may leave now!"

Han Dong dismissed Jiang Feng.

She sat alone in the courtyard, contemplating.

Jiang Feng returned to the workshop, also pondering.

The Seventh Prince and the Second Prince sending the account book back and forth must not only be to force Han Dong into picking a side but could there be other motives.

As part of the Second Prince’s camp, he definitely needs to ascertain who took the account book, whether Han Dong is aligned with the Seventh Prince.

As part of the Seventh Prince’s camp, he is more intent on tying Han Dong in, persuading Xiao Ran, and collectively dealing with the Second Prince. Whether the account book was given to him by Han Dong is already irrelevant to the Seventh Prince.

"Sister Dong, I trust you can handle this well."

"The Second Prince will definitely investigate the real culprit; possibly he’s already probing Zhenbei Prison."

"I once borrowed Sister Dong’s Identity Token to read at the Academy, surely I’ll be scrutinized."

"But as long as my cultivation isn’t exposed, if I continue to lie low, I refuse to believe the Second Prince will trace back to me."

Jiang Feng speculated internally.

He knows that the identity of Little Prison Chief is the greatest protection.

Although previously revealing the power of Prison Guard Long Fist before people like Li Minhe and Prison Chief Sun, in the eyes of outsiders, he’s at best an Eighth or Seventh Grade Martial Artist.

Even in Han Dong’s mind, only considering him a Middle Third Grade Martial Artist.

"Hopefully, no one notices me, and the Second Prince finds other targets."

Jiang Feng mused.
