The Greatest Village Doctor In The World

Chapter 1718 - 1717: Next Steps



Ling Feng got straight to the point, and Petio was momentarily stunned.

With eyes wide open in astonishment, he asked in disbelief, "You, how do you know?"

"Don’t worry about how I know. The fact is, I can’t keep it a secret anymore!"

Ling Feng chuckled, having already found the answer in the other man’s mind!

Releasing his grip, he continued, "Sorry, just a joke!"

Petio: "..."

His gaze suddenly turned suspicious as he scrutinized Ling Feng seriously: "What other abilities do you have that we don’t know about?"

"Plenty!"

Ling Feng smiled, patting his shoulder: "Alright, as for Petio’s admiration for me, I still can’t accept it. As for the Crystal Skull, I’m actually not that interested, I was just asking casually!"

Petio: "..."

He already sensed something was off, but he was clueless, so he could only look at Ling Feng in bewilderment: "Then why are you staying?"

"Not for anything big, just wanted to try out if the bed at the presidential estate is comfortable!"

Ling Feng smiled, stood up, and continued: "It’s getting late, Mister President should rest earlier, where’s my room?"

"Staff will arrange it for you shortly, Mr. Ling, are you sure you don’t want to talk to me more?" Petio asked.

"No need, talking more is pointless, everyone getting an early rest is what’s important!"

Ling Feng smiled, walking straight to the door.

Watching his back, a flash of light crossed Petio’s eyes, and then he shook his head helplessly.

Ling Feng didn’t care much, he really didn’t want to talk to Petio any further.

Because he had already got the answer he wanted, he couldn’t be bothered to continue entangling with this person with pointless chatter.

From Petio’s mind, Ling Feng learned that the Crystal Skull in the basement safe was indeed useless, its energy already drained.

This thing had been in the basement for over a hundred and fifty years; as for who drained its energy, it was completely unknown.

So, just like Petio said, even if one gets the skull, it is of no use.

Ling Feng knew this was not a lie, so he simply gave up on taking it, leaving the skull to stay in the safe!

Under the guidance of staff, Ling Feng went to the guest room, and after washing up, lay down on the comfortable big bed.

However, he wasn’t sleepy at all; he took out his phone and composed a message to Rick.

After a moment, a reply arrived.

Seeing the screen, Ling Feng squinted his eyes and thought to himself: "Very good, Navarro, Navarro, tomorrow I will do nothing but settle accounts with you!"

That night was quite peaceful for Ling Feng, but the special agents at the estate were exhausted.

To prevent any incidents, the special agents had specially increased manpower, fully on guard, mainly against Ling Feng!

Unexpectedly, the night passed uneventfully, and Ling Feng didn’t leave his room until the sun rose!

At the sight of the President getting up, finishing washing, ready to have breakfast, Ling Feng hadn’t left his room. In the end, the special agents had no choice but to knock on the door to wake him up.

After several knocks, there was no response from the room, so the agents had no other option but to force their way in with a spare key.

Entering the room, they found no sign of Ling Feng!

On the bedside table was a piece of paper with a few sentences written in Chinese, which explained Ling Feng’s departure in advance.

Petio, sitting in the dining room, listened to the interpreter read the note and was immediately speechless: "This Ling Feng, wasn’t because of urgent business to attend to, is simply giving us a hard time!"

Then he turned his head to look at the special agents, asking seriously: "Now do you understand his capabilities? Right under your noses, he can leave silently. If he were to sneak in, what would you do?"

The head of the special agents broke out in a cold sweat, not knowing what to say, silently lamenting: "If it weren’t for you insisting on having him stay, none of this would have happened!"

...

...

Ling Feng had returned to the hotel, and after a comfortable hot shower, he came out wrapped in a towel.

Catherine had arrived early, and when he emerged, she immediately hugged his waist: "How was last night? Staying at the President’s estate must have been special, right?"

"Not particularly, just slept."

Ling Feng smiled, took her hand, and sat on the sofa, then asked: "In your American history, has there been anyone particularly remarkable or extraordinary?"

Catherine was caught off guard by the question, thought about it, and said: "If you mean someone truly exceptional, not really. Although there have been elites in American history, they were only slightly better than ordinary people in terms of intelligence or means. You’re talking about someone like you, right?"

Ling Feng nodded: "Yes!"

Afterward, he told Catherine about his discoveries last night and sighed: "If someone absorbed the Crystal Skull’s energy over a hundred years ago, finding that person now is nearly impossible!"

"Hard to verify if they’re still alive!" Catherine nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, forget it, let’s not think about this for now. Last night I gathered other intel, let’s later find another skull!" Ling Feng said.

"Another one?"

Catherine was surprised: "You also know the whereabouts of other skulls?"

"Yeah, learned from Petio, he knows the whereabouts of those skulls. My biggest worry now is whether the energy inside has also been drained. If so, staying in America is just a waste of time!" Ling Feng said.

"Hopefully not."

Catherine shook her head, thought for a bit, and said: "The legend of the Crystal Skull has been around for ages, occasionally, you hear of such discoveries, but it’s all legends; never hear about anyone gaining extraordinary abilities from it!"

"That’s keeping a low profile, any smart person would choose to stay hidden after gaining extraordinary abilities, unknown to outsiders!" Ling Feng said.

Hearing this, Catherine gave him a glance: "Are you one of those?"

Ling Feng smiled, nodded: "I was indeed like that at first, but later had to come out in the open!"

"Proves you’re smart!" Catherine laughed.

After joking, she immediately asked: "Then today, are we going to find the Crystal Skull?"

Ling Feng shook his head: "No, there’s still an important task to do!"
