Chapter 52: A Huge Misunderstanding, A Helpless Old Man
“This person is highly likely to be the traitor who planned this attack!”
Bai Yu: ??? What? It’s you!
As soon as these words were spoken, all eyes fell on Bai Yu.
The more than twenty people who came to support were all from the Jiangnan District Investigation Bureau! This also included the Seventh Group.
These were his own teammates, and since Bai Yu had explained the situation in advance, Li Yunbin naturally stepped forward immediately and said, “Professor Feng, I can guarantee that Bai Yu is definitely not a spy! Is there some misunderstanding here?”
Professor Feng’s emotions were incredibly agitated at this moment, with lightning even gathering in his hands, looking as if he was about to attack.
He roared, “Misunderstanding!?”
“Hmph! Then let me ask you first, wasn’t today’s incident caused by him trying to activate the magic staff?”
Upon hearing this, Bai Yu thought, “You old mole, you think I’m capable, so you want to frame me? Fortunately, I informed Director Yang in advance, otherwise, being slandered by such a big figure would be a real life-threatening danger!”
Seeing Professor Feng’s attitude, he wasn’t one to have a good temper either, and he retorted, “Old man, are you trying to frame me forcefully? I’m telling you, this operation was prepared long ago. You, the mole, actually want to drag me down with you, dream on!”
Bai Yu’s fierce attitude only made Professor Feng more convinced that he was right.
He immediately said, “Do you think I don’t have evidence!?”
“Speak! Speak! If you can produce evidence, I will apologize on the spot!!!”
“Good, good, good!”
Seeing how agitated both of them were, Wang Wen quickly stepped forward and said to Professor Feng Yihua, “Old Feng, he’s on a mission. Didn’t you see he used several talismans and even summoned Director Yang’s clone? There must be a misunderstanding. If you have any suspicions, just say them!”
After speaking, he didn’t forget to criticize Bai Yu, saying, “You, this guy too. Sigh! Why can’t you just be less troublesome? Just talk it out properly, and everyone can clear things up. There’s no need to escalate to this point.”
Hearing Wang Wen’s words, Professor Feng frowned.
It seemed that this battle was indeed secured by Bai Yu’s several crucial moves, ensuring the safety of the vast majority of people.
Otherwise, those three blood shadows would have certainly killed a large number of people. And it seemed the Investigation Bureau was also prepared early on…
Thinking of this, he calmed down somewhat and explained the reason for his suspicion: “My student, Zhou Wen, found you acting suspiciously in a corner while tidying up this afternoon, doing who knows what.”
“When I heard my student mention this, I just thought you were handling personal matters. Although it was in the restricted area of the laboratory, which violated the rules, I didn’t have any suspicions.”
“However, I… I that student…”
At this point, Professor Feng’s voice became choked with emotion. He looked at Zhou Wen’s corpse by the black car, with a fist-sized penetrating wound in his abdomen, and blood flowing all over the ground, not yet dry.
Tears involuntarily streamed down.
Sadness, pain, anger…
“My student took a fatal blow for me! And before he died, his gaze was fixed on you!”
“This is a student I’ve had for ten years!!!”
“Now I have to ask, what exactly were you doing at that time!?”
Saying this, Professor Feng’s tears flowed like an old man.
As soon as these words were spoken, the Eighth Group, Ninth Group, and others who didn’t understand the full situation immediately looked at Bai Yu.
Deputy Director Meng, who was in the air and didn’t understand the complete situation, also prepared to act to apprehend the mole.
Upon hearing this, Bai Yu realized what had happened!
The person hiding behind him had indeed secretly reported him.
More importantly, this person sacrificed himself for Professor Feng! He had also heard Professor Feng call out Zhou Wen’s name at the time.
Professor Feng’s desire to seek justice for his deceased student at this moment was understandable…
Seeing this, Bai Yu’s tone softened.
“I was sending a message to Director Yang, reporting Professor Feng’s experimental results, as well as the appearance of blood monsters in your vicinity and your intention to return to Tianhai City today.”
Professor Feng frowned and asked, “Why report these things?”
“Because we learned through special means that we might encounter danger on this trip. While interacting with you, I was constantly looking for the mole and considering the attacker’s motives. If you don’t believe me, you can ask Director Yang!”
Saying this, Bai Yu became even more annoyed and said, “And! Aren’t all these people I called here?”
“Otherwise, with your careless nature, you wouldn’t even take the blood monsters near the laboratory seriously, and you would have died ten thousand times! Even if I hadn’t come here, you would have been ambushed! It’s possible for the entire force to be annihilated!”
Hearing this, Professor Feng’s face turned red, a mixture of sadness and helplessness.
He was just an old man who wanted revenge for his student. He thought he had caught the murderer and wanted to avenge his student, but in the end, you told him he was looking in the wrong direction!?
Such a drastic emotional swing, how could anyone accept it…
At this moment, Professor Feng collapsed on the ground, looking like a helpless old man.
Seeing this scene, those around also felt a surge of emotion and remained silent.
Seeing this, Bai Yu also felt a pang of sympathy. “Professor Feng, I understand how you feel. Your student was just expressing his suspicions from his perspective.”
At this moment, a stream of light flew over, it was Director Yang.
Professor Feng’s matter was temporarily put aside, and everyone looked at Deputy Director Yang.
Director Yang was holding someone in his hand, it was the fleeing vampire!
Seeing the culprit captured, Professor Feng’s mood could only be slightly better.
Bai Yu then said, “Director Yang, Professor Feng and I… might have had some misunderstanding. Please help resolve it.”
Director Yang didn’t ask what the misunderstanding was. He just glanced twice, as if he understood what had happened, and then said, “The success of this operation is indeed related to Bai Yu.”
“Old Feng, let’s have a good drink tonight.”
Professor Feng simply responded with a silent ‘Mm’.
Afterward, everyone naturally began to quickly clear the scene, the roadblocks, and the corpses.
Many vehicles were also sent from Tianhai City to help transport people.
Finally, around seven in the evening, the scene was cleared, and the vehicles drove towards the city.
On the way back, Bai Yu followed Li Yunbin and the others into a familiar car.
The car was unusually quiet.
Bai Yu quietly looked at the night scenery of the mountains, his thoughts complex.
After a long silence, Li Yunbin finally spoke, “Actually… Professor Feng is a very good person.”
“Mm, I understand. I can completely understand Professor Feng’s emotions. He lost a very, very, very good student, and his reaction is only natural. After all, I’m also afraid of losing someone.”
“It’s good that you understand.”
After another period of silence, Bai Yu really wanted to say that although they hadn’t known each other for long, he felt very comfortable being with them and didn’t want to lose them.
However, being a guy, his emotions were reserved and buried deep within his heart.
He really couldn’t bring himself to say such mushy words. But he would express them through his actions.
Thinking of this, Bai Yu said, “I’ve made a potion for cleansing meridians. I’ve already used it, and the effect is very good. I’ll give three bottles to each person next.”
“Mm.”
Seeing the car fall silent again, Liu Feifei couldn’t help herself but didn’t know what to say.
Then Bai Yu said, “The cost of one bottle is around a hundred, and I’m selling this one for one hundred and fifty.”
Liu Feifei: ???
“Are you robbing me? The Honeysuckle Potion is only three hundred Contribution Points!”
“I’m clearly stating my prices! Moreover, my potion is even more effective than the Honeysuckle Potion. After you drink three bottles, you’ll definitely come back to buy more from me. I’ll give a 10% discount for bulk purchases.”
“Hmph! Always bragging.”
Despite the bickering, the atmosphere within the team improved slightly.
After chatting for a while, Bai Yu remembered the Blood Dissolving Talisman and said, “By the way! Captain, I need special vampire blood. Can you get it?”
Li Yunbin didn’t ask for the purpose and directly said, “What level?”
“Ummm, peak Qi Gathering Realm, the more the better.”
“I’ll contact someone now. We should be able to get it after returning to the bureau.”
