Chapter 1762 - 1761: UFO?
The white light flickered as Ling Feng returned to Longyuan with Catherine and Li Tong.
Seeing the large teleportation array on the ground, Li Tong squinted her eyes, a flash of brilliance passing through them.
She was a woman with a meticulous mind, and just by seeing these things, she understood that Ling Feng had already established a teleportation array network spanning across Huaxia.
She couldn’t help but feel a bit envious of Ling Feng.
With this system, one could reach different places in an instant, and nothing could be more convenient.
However, she also knew this was his exclusive property, and all she could do was envy it a little; trying to take it for her own was clearly impossible!
There was indeed another method she could use, but after thinking it over, Li Tong decided to give it up!
Her feelings towards Ling Feng hadn’t reached the point where she could become someone who shared a bed with him.
Of course, this was only Li Tong’s thought, and Ling Feng was completely unaware.
From his perspective, Li Tong was too mysterious, representing the Li Family forces with whom he had conflicts; the fact that they weren’t at each other’s throats was already quite something!
He never considered anything romantic happening, but on Li Tong’s side, she’d already developed a slight affection for him.
Upon returning to Longyuan, the three of them didn’t go upstairs but went directly to the meeting room.
Ling Feng sat down and looked at Li Tong: "Now then, we can have a good, quiet talk!"
"You’ve already left America, so why don’t you let someone else handle that person’s matter?"
Li Tong said, then asked, "Why was your friend taken away?"
"I’m not sure either. How about you start by telling me who that person is and how his aircraft came to be?" Ling Feng asked.
"Alright."
Li Tong nodded and continued, "That person’s name is Kidd, and we’ve been watching him for months!"
"We?"
Ling Feng detected something in her words and quickly asked, "Who do you mean by ’we’?"
"This has nothing to do with you, and you shouldn’t ask more about it."
Li Tong didn’t answer and continued, "This Kidd is not American, and we still don’t know his exact nationality, but he is currently one of the most dangerous people in the world!"
"One of?"
Ling Feng was puzzled, "Why, are there many dangerous people?"
Li Tong looked at him, "Yeah, you’re one of them!"
Ling Feng: "...."
Catherine, who had been silent, looked at him, nodded, and said, "You really do qualify as a dangerous individual!"
"Come on, I’m not ambitious or a fanatic; how am I dangerous?" Ling Feng said with a wry smile.
"Anyone who has enough power to disrupt the safety of this world can be classified as dangerous; it’s not meant to be derogatory," Li Tong said.
Ling Feng laughed a little, then asked, "Alright, so what’s up with Kidd? Does he have any ambitions? What’s your purpose in keeping an eye on him?"
"This person possesses some special abilities different from ordinary superpower users. We’re tracking him to understand what’s going on, not to oppose or eliminate him," Li Tong explained.
"You don’t have anything more to tell me? I need to find that person as soon as possible and rescue Nina!" Ling Feng asked.
"Not at the moment, but don’t worry; if we find any clues, we’ll inform you immediately!" Li Tong said.
Ling Feng leaned back, dejected, his face turning very grim.
Seeing this, Li Tong curiously asked, "What’s wrong? Is this Nina also a close female friend of yours?"
Ling Feng was taken aback and quickly shook his head, "No, she’s just a friend. We were working together on something, and she was taken away right in front of me. I can’t ignore this!"
"Got it."
Li Tong nodded, "I’ll keep an eye out for any information about Nina!"
"Thanks a lot!" Ling Feng forced a smile.
"Alright, now that I’m back in Huaxia, I have other matters to attend to, so I won’t disturb you all anymore!" Li Tong stood up and said.
Ling Feng looked at her, "Where are you heading? I can take you there."
"That would be great; it’s a long way by plane, and I’m planning to go to Demon Capital," Li Tong said.
"Or perhaps I should take her," Catherine suggested. "Ling Feng, you just got back; you might have other things to take care of?"
"Yeah, that would be helpful, and I need to make a few phone calls," Ling Feng nodded.
As the two left the meeting room, Ling Feng watched them head to teleport, then went upstairs to his office.
He expected Lin Xue to be there, but the room was empty. Not bothering to ask, Ling Feng sat down and called Han Wancheng to inform him of his return to Huaxia.
Han Wancheng immediately replied, "How could you not report in as soon as you got back!"
"Uh, you didn’t say anything, boss. I thought as long as I’m back, it’s all good!" Ling Feng said with a wry smile.
"Who told you it’s all clear? Get over here right away; the trouble you caused needs sorting out!"
Han Wancheng said this, then hung up the phone immediately.
Ling Feng, having no choice, got up and prepared to head downstairs.
As soon as he opened the door, he almost bumped into Lin Xue.
"When did you return?" Lin Xue asked.
"Just a little while ago, and I’m about to head to the Capital City. What have you been up to?" Ling Feng asked.
"Nothing much; just got a report of an incident. I’ve already sent Du Song and the others to the location!" Lin Xue replied.
Ling Feng was taken aback, quickly asking, "What’s the case? Is it serious?"
"Not serious, just a usual sighting report. Someone claimed to have seen a UFO," Lin Xue laughed.
"Hmm?"
Ling Feng was stunned upon hearing this, and quickly asked, "Where did this happen, and when?"
"Why so tense?"
Lin Xue was puzzled, but she quickly said, "In Xiaotang Town, south of the city, about ten kilometers from the county seat!"
"Does Longyuan have any cars left? Give me one; I want to go too!" Ling Feng asked urgently.
"Of course, I’ll drive you there myself!"
Realizing the complexity of the situation from his urgency, Lin Xue put down the files she was holding and went out the door with Ling Feng.
After getting in the car and leaving Longyuan, she asked, "What’s going on? Why are you so tense? Do you know something?"
"Know something? I know plenty!"
Ling Feng said with a wry smile and, while on the road, recounted what had happened to him in America.
After listening, Lin Xue looked at him, astonished, "So you’re saying that the UFO sighting here could be connected to Kidd?"
"Hard to say; I’m just guessing. We’ll have to go to the scene to find out more, but if it is related, things could get very complicated," Ling Feng said.
"Alright then."
Lin Xue didn’t say more, just nodded and gripped the steering wheel tightly.
