Chapter 1299 - 1299: The Source
On the road, Xu Le wandered aimlessly, thinking about the possible and the impossible. In a daze, he recalled the omnipotent appearance Brother Ye once showed when he paved the way for him for no reason, suddenly stopping, mocking himself.
Is there truly no hope? Even Brother Ye remembers, if he doesn't get his father's help, he can't even hold onto his beloved? A person who thinks he's remarkable could very well be a coward.
In my mind, just like that, three police cars passed by me and stopped abruptly in front of me, the door opened, and a team of plainclothes detectives appeared.
And then they went straight to Xu Le.
"Does my dad know about skipping class?" Doing such a big thing, crossing provinces to bring me back?"
I have no reason for such a ridiculous thought to flash through my mind. Before Xu Le left, a group of detectives walked past him, a gust of breeze blowing by.
"Wasn't it me?"
Xu Le snapped back to reality, stunned, instinctively looking back. He saw a familiar figure appearing among the gaps of bureaucrats, shoulder to shoulder. He paused, saying, "Brother Ye?"
So they got into the car heading to the Investigation Bureau.
He ignored the vigilant and strict detectives in the car. Xu Le's eyes were filled with excitement. He glanced at Ye Fengsheng a few times and finally said, "Brother Ye, why are you here? Did you do something to anger the detectives?"
"Do I look like I've done something wrong?" Feng Ye asked.
"If you haven't done anything wrong, what do they want you to do?" Xu Le glanced at the detectives in the car, whispered, "Did you make a big mistake this time? How could they have caught me?"
"Bang, a loud explosion."
"Don't speak quietly," the detective in front tapped the iron bars inside the car.
Ye Feng completely ignored the warning, strangely looked at Xu Le: "Weren't you with me last time? What did I do?"
Ye Fengsheng's indifferent demeanor gave others the reason not to offend. Xu Le, unrelated to the case, was first taken for interrogation, while Ye Fengsheng was alone in the interrogation room, leisurely drinking the hot tea specially brought by the detectives.
He took a sip of tea, the taste wasn't very good. Listening to the detectives' repeated words from afar and Xu Le questioning his identity, Ye Fengsheng gently shook his head. Suddenly, he found today's events quite interesting.
Not long ago, the door of the interrogation room was pushed open. A middle-aged fat man with black-rimmed glasses walked in quickly, bowed slightly, and shook hands with Ye Fengsheng: "General Ye, it was a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. We were summoned by the people. I heard that someone was killed on the street, so I went to the Investigation Bureau to pursue the killer. I didn't expect such a misunderstanding."
Ye Fengsheng looked at him, put down the disposable paper cup in his hand, gently shook his head. Meanwhile, he asked, "Have I found his identity?"
"I've found it! We've discovered it!"
The middle-aged man nodded: "We found his information in the major database. General Ye killed the assassin from the assassin organization, codename Daybreak, a wanted person by International Communications. He's committed many cases both domestically and internationally, but was never found. I didn't expect General Ye to catch him."
Ye Fengsheng raised his eyebrows, ignoring what he said. Instead, he asked, "Who told you I'm a Major General?"
"Ah?"
The middle-aged man paused: "You, aren't you General Ye?"
"I'm Ye Fengsheng, but I'm not a Major General."
Ye Fengsheng looked at him and said: "The title I want is a secret title within the district. I want to give this title to Xu Le, who was taken to the interrogation room by you, not to be placed on my head."
"What… what?"
The middle-aged man didn't respond. In this trade center, he'd naturally met many soldiers. This wasn't the first time the Major General had seen something. What truly scared him was Ye Fengsheng's age being too young, so he assumed a humble posture. Otherwise, the street killing crime couldn't be easily removed by a Junior General.
But what Ye Fengsheng just said, subconsciously made him feel a ridiculous sentiment, leaving him completely unaware of the situation. How can such authority games be played? What kind of identity does this young man possess, making him capable of issuing such a title?
Ye Fengsheng looked at the confused middle-aged man, asked: "Didn't you hear clearly?"
"Ah?" "Ah!"
"I heard you! I heard you!"
The middle-aged man nodded as a response.
Suddenly, he thought this man's brain might not be functioning well. Ye Fengsheng had to repeat seriously: "Xu Le is the General. You took him away."
"Yes, yes, yes…"
"What!"
The front line still nodded and flattered. The middle-aged man jumped three feet in place within a second, his bulging stomach rolling under the pressure of his uniform.
"Come on, come on!" Liu, take me back.
"Director, the interrogation is at a critical moment. Bringing people back now, it will…"
The middle-aged man was furious, indignantly said: "What's this? That's Junior General Xu Xiaojiang! A person of the district! What more is there to assess? Bring the person back!"
"How could there be another Major General?"
Xiao Liu was puzzled, muttered a sentence, hurriedly ran towards another interrogation room.
"You… Mr. Ye, are you here at Qin Emperor for a particular reason? If you need the cooperation of our Law Department, please…"
"No,"
The middle-aged man hadn't finished speaking, Ye Fengsheng interrupted him: "I'm here for business, not for the district. You just let Xu Yue go."
The hanging heart finally relaxed. The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief. He worried the district would conduct some large-scale operation in this city, needing a major distraction when chaos arose. Now, knowing it's unrelated to the district, he was completely relieved.
"Director Su, if I may boldly ask, do you know where the girl named Yu Xiyu is now?"
The first thing Xu Le did when asked by the detectives to return was not to thank Ye Feng for the sudden title but to inquire about his beloved with the current Law Bureau Director Su.
"Yu Xiyu?"
Director Su thought for a moment, replied: "She's Yu Yang's daughter, right, Yu Xiyu?"
"Yes, yes!" Xu Le nodded: "She said her father's name is Yu Yang! Do you know where she is now?"
Director Su thought for a moment, and shifting attention back to Ye Fengsheng, looked at Xu Le: "Chief Xu, how do you plan to handle Yu Xiyu then?"
One uses "you," the other "you." Director Su has a powerful vision.
Xu Le stepped out of the bureau, looking dazed. He followed Ye Fengsheng numbly for two streets. He looked up and asked: "Brother Ye, where are we going?"
Ye Fengsheng continued walking: "Taking you home."
Xu Le stopped. "I want to try again."
"Try what?"
Ye Fengsheng looked back at him and said: "If you don't like her that much, why persist?"
"I really like her!"
"I really like her," Xu said.
"Are you sure she likes you too?" Ye Fengsheng asked: "If she really likes you, she would have an object to engage with you."
"She's never mentioned anything about engagement to me!"
Xu Le said: "Even Director Su said earlier that the engagement was only announced a few days ago! She must have encountered a barrier she can't overcome. I will help her!"
Ye Fengsheng took the phone from Xu Le's pocket, dialed Xu Haishan's number, and handed it to him: "First, get your father's approval."
