Extraordinary Soldier King in the City-Chapter 681: Investigating the Murderer

"Then I really owe you one, Brother Xu!"

Chen Feng clasped his fists, expressing his gratitude.

"We’re brothers; there’s no need for such formalities. Take the next couple of days to get ready. Once you’re prepared, give me a call. I’ll hand over all the relevant materials to you. After that, it’s all up to you!"

Xu Long patted Chen Feng on the shoulder and said with a smile.

"Okay!"

Chen Feng nodded, then turned to look at Lin Mengyao, who was on the sofa, and asked with concern, "Brother Xu, in her current state, if this goes on for a long time, will there be any problems? I probably won’t be back in just two or three days!"

"Just take care of her daily, like you would take care of someone in a coma. Maintain her bodily functions well, and she’ll be fine for a month!"

Xu Long explained.

"Right, I’ll definitely be back within a month!"

Chen Feng nodded, saying with conviction.

"Alright, then I won’t stay any longer. You get ready; I’m going to organize the information on the three medicinal herbs and the respective Sects for you!"

Xu Long said his farewells to Chen Feng.

Chen Feng knew that important matters were pressing and didn’t try to keep Xu Long any longer. He escorted Xu Long out of the mansion, then returned alone.

In the living room, on the sofa.

Lin Wanqing still remained by Lin Mengyao’s side, tightly clutching her little hand, unwilling to leave even a step away.

Lin Wanqing’s eyes, from beginning to end, were fixated on Lin Mengyao.

At this moment, those originally beautiful eyes had become somewhat red and moist.

And her pretty face was pallid and haggard, evoking pity.

"Yaoyao, it’s your sister’s fault, I failed to take care of you, and that’s why you’ve ended up like this, I’m so sorry!"

Lin Wanqing looked at the comatose Lin Mengyao, her voice filled with self-reproach.

Seeing this, Chen Feng felt as if someone had violently tugged at his heart; it hurt so much.

This was the second time he had seen Lin Wanqing so helpless and sad.

The last time was when Lin Mengyao had gone missing.

Aside from that, Lin Wanqing had always been a strong woman, composed and calm in the face of any upheaval.

It was only with matters concerning Lin Mengyao that Lin Wanqing would completely lose her composure, transforming into a vulnerable and helpless woman, touching to one’s core.

The reason for this was a testament to her deep, heartfelt love for Lin Mengyao— a love that surpassed everything, even her own self.

All of this was plainly seen by Chen Feng, and it tugged at his heartstrings.

Taking a deep breath, Chen Feng stepped forward, crouched down by Lin Wanqing, and said softly, "Sister Qing, you haven’t closed your eyes all night. Go and get some rest. I’ll look after Yaoyao!"

"I’m not tired!"

Lin Wanqing rubbed her gradually moistening eyes and shook her head.

"Sister Qing, you need to take care of your health. Only when you’re well can you look after Yaoyao better!"

Chen Feng tried to persuade her.

"I’m fine, Xiaofeng. Tell me the truth, can Yaoyao really wake up?"

Lin Wanqing shook her head, looked at Chen Feng earnestly, and asked.

In her gaze towards Chen Feng, there was an immense hope.

How she wished for Chen Feng’s answer to be affirmative!

Seeing this, Chen Feng took a deep breath, then nodded and assured Lin Wanqing, "Trust me, Sister Qing. Give me a month; I will definitely make Yaoyao wake up!" frёeweɓηovel_coɱ

"Really?"

Lin Wanqing asked, hardly daring to believe.

"Yes, really!"

Chen Feng nodded seriously, then looking at Lin Wanqing, he added, "But in the meantime, you must take good care of yourself. You wouldn’t want to be ill when Yaoyao wakes up, would you?"

"Yes, I will take good care of myself!"

Lin Wanqing nodded quickly, promising.

As long as Lin Mengyao could really wake up and be safe, she was willing to do anything.

"You should go rest now, get a good sleep, and leave Yaoyao to me."

Chen Feng looked at Lin Wanqing and said.

Lin Wanqing hesitated for a moment, but ultimately nodded and said, "Okay, but if anything happens to Yaoyao, you must wake me up immediately!"

"Rest assured, be obedient and go rest. After I finish cooking, I’ll wake you up for the meal!"

Chen Feng nodded, smiling as he spoke.

"Mm!"

Only then did Lin Wanqing turn and head towards the upstairs bedroom.

After Lin Wanqing had gone upstairs,

Chen Feng lowered his gaze to Lin Mengyao, who was in a coma, his eyes filled with distress.

He knew that Lin Mengyao was only eighteen years old, at the flowering age of life, a time to be lively and energetic.

But now, she could only lie here, unable to go anywhere.

Thinking this, a chill flashed in Chen Feng’s eyes.

No matter the reason, no matter who had drained Lin Mengyao’s spiritual power!

This time, he would not let that person get away!

He would find that person and make them pay a devastatingly heavy price!

With this thought, Chen Feng took out his phone and dialed Zhou Zheng’s number.

"Brother Chen, what’s the matter?"

Soon, Zhou Zheng’s voice came from the other side of the phone.

"Are you busy?"

Chen Feng asked indifferently.

"Not busy, Brother Chen, just tell me what you need!"

Zhou Zheng hurriedly said.

"It’s like this, can you help me check who Lin Mengyao had contact with yesterday afternoon and evening, and also, get me the surveillance videos around the Lin Mansion and see who came to the Lin Family last night!"

Chen Feng instructed directly.

"No problem, I’ll get on it right away!"

Zhou Zheng nodded and then hung up the phone.

Such tasks were not a problem for him, with his connections in Coastal, he could easily handle it.

And so, Chen Feng sat in the living room, taking care of Lin Mengyao, while waiting for Zhou Zheng’s response.

After about three hours,

Zhou Zheng’s call came back.

"Did you find anything?"

Chen Feng quickly asked.

"Yesterday afternoon, Lin Mengyao was at school all the time, didn’t have contact with any outsiders; most of the time she was in the classroom, only called to the principal’s office once."

Zhou Zheng said.

"The principal’s office? Ye Qianrou?"

Chen Feng furrowed his brows, then continued, "What about the surveillance footage around the Lin Mansion?"

"That..."

Zhou Zheng sounded hesitant.

"What’s the matter?"

Chen Feng asked in confusion.

"I did call to negotiate with the community where the Lin Mansion is located, but they refused to provide the surveillance footage, and there’s nothing I can do about it!"

Zhou Zheng said helplessly.

"They refused to provide it? But did you tell them that it was the Lin Family itself requesting the footage?"

Chen Feng furrowed his brows, puzzled.
