The hope that had just ignited in the black-clad man was instantly extinguished.
Moreover, the sparks on his body all turned into ice at this moment.
His whole body stiffened as he slowly turned around, trembling, to look at Ma Xiaotong who was sitting silently by the side.
Just then, Ma Xiaotong happened to raise her head, meeting the gaze of the black-clad man.
Those gray eyes, that cold expression.
Made the black-clad man quickly turn his head back with a "swish!"
With a pleading look on his face, he looked at Shen Xing'Er and said:
"Um... Miss Shen, is it possible you heard wrong?"
"Did Forensic Doctor Zhang say for me to drive to pick him up, rather than him taking a car to Haicheng?"
Shen Xing'Er certainly didn't understand why her father's subordinate was telling her all this.
She shook her head earnestly and said:
"I didn't hear wrong, that's exactly what he said, and he repeated it three times. If I heard that wrong, I really need to go to the hospital and have my head checked."
But it seemed the black-clad man held onto a glimmer of hope, nervously saying:
"Miss Shen, please make another call to confirm. Would you... let me talk to him once you get through?"
Shen Xing'Er was confused, but she couldn't resist the pitiful expression and tone of the black-clad man's plea.
"Alright then..."
Shen Xing'Er redialed the number Zhang Feng had just called her from.
But the next second.
Shen Xing'Er awkwardly looked up at the black-clad man and said:
"He's turned off his phone."
"What?!"
The black-clad man let out a girlish shriek:
"No way?!"
"Miss Shen, don't lie to me! Please don't scare me!"
"How could he turn off his phone? He..."
Just as the black-clad man was about to cry in panic.
Ma Xiaotong's cold and emotionless voice came from the back of his head:
"You...seem to be afraid of me?"
The black-clad man felt like a massive, icy thousand-year-old block of ice fell from the back of his head, trailing down his spine, landing heavily on his heels.
"Crack!" he almost fainted.
He'd rather have fainted on the spot.
Than face Ma Xiaotong who was so close to him.
Looking at Ma Xiaotong, who appeared behind him without making any sound.
The black-clad man's face revealed an awkward smile.
Then he unobtrusively began moving his feet backward, saying:
"No...not at all..."
"Miss Ma, you're so beautiful, how could I possibly be afraid of you?"
"Hahaha, right? You agree, right? Hahaha..."
This laugh that sounded like crying, who knows if it was the black-clad man's characteristic.
"Oh?"
Ma Xiaotong made a light exclamation, then directly stepped closer to the black-clad man, saying as she approached:
"You're not afraid of me?"
As Ma Xiaotong approached, the black-clad man made a backward jump on the spot, but he still forced himself to loudly say:
"I'm not afraid!"
Ma Xiaotong softly opened her mouth:
"If you're not afraid, why are you running?"
"Who said I'm running?!" The black-clad man stiffened his neck.
"I'm just... I'm showing you the way, Miss Ma!"
"The plane is this way, please follow me."
After saying that, the black-clad man lost all semblance of masculinity.
He turned and dashed away!
Shen Xing'Er, full of confusion, came to Ma Xiaotong's side, watching in the direction the black-clad man disappeared, and asked innocently:
"Sister Xiaotong, what's going on with him?"
Ma Xiaotong shook her head and said: "I don't know either."
But in her heart, she whispered quietly:
"I fear this person already knows my identity...."
"Once I meet my brother, I must inform him of this news as soon as possible!"
...
At this moment, Zhang Feng, swaying in the van, had already guessed that the old devil Shen Hanshan might know something.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have behaved the way he did on the phone earlier.
But it didn't matter.
Zhang Feng knew very well that paper couldn't contain fire.
Sooner or later, Shen Hanshan would know.
But the reassuring thing was, someone of Shen Hanshan's level had long-term vision. Even if he knew Zhang Feng had something special, he would think it through thoroughly.
Of course, Zhang Feng had already turned off his phone to avoid being detected by Dog Bro driving ahead when someone contacted him.
And before turning it off, he had called Officer Hu.
The purpose of that call was mainly to confirm whether Brother Donkey and his group had all been arrested.
He couldn't allow any fish to slip through the net.
Otherwise, his plan might be revealed again.
However, Officer Hu handled matters very effectively.
If not for the need to cooperate with Zhang Feng's operation,
Dog Bro wouldn't have escaped, let alone others, especially that yellow-haired guy named Ah Yang.
He didn't even want to run.
Feeling the world was too dangerous, it was safer behind iron bars and grilles.
Having confirmed this information,
Zhang Feng also turned off his phone with peace of mind.
And didn't forget to use the key Brother Donkey gave him to unlock Qin Huan's handcuffs.
Couldn't keep her cuffed forever, right?
Such delicate skin....
At this moment, Qin Huan also fully understood Zhang Feng's plan and expressed wholehearted support.
This way, indeed, it would be easier for them to get closer to the truth.
However, Qin Huan still asked:
"Are we going to Haicheng just sitting in this car?"
"From B City to Haicheng, even if we keep driving on the highway without resting, it would take three days, right?"
"Won't the person in front get tired and crash the car with us in it?"
"If we go stop-and-go, it'll take at least a week to reach Haicheng; do you think the colleagues there can wait?"
Zhang Feng was after all, improvising to infiltrate the enemy.
He certainly didn't know what arrangements Dog Bro might have.
He shook his head slowly and said:
"I don't know either."
"We'll take one step at a time. I've already sent Shen Hanshan's people to Haicheng by plane. They should coordinate with our colleagues there, no problem."
"Alright then..."
Qin Huan still looked somewhat uneasy.
However, both of them noticed an anomaly, an anomaly in the vehicle's movement.
Even though there were no windows in the compartment, so they couldn't see outside.
They could still feel the difference between fast driving and stop-and-go.
Now the vehicle seemed to be moving very slowly.
Moreover, they could faintly hear car horns outside, sounding very chaotic.
"Traffic jam?"
As soon as they had such a doubt,
suddenly, the vehicle lurched forward quickly as if braking, coming to a stop.
Then they heard the sound of the car door closing.
With a "whoosh!", the back door of the van's compartment was pulled open.
They saw Dog Bro, looking panicked.
Dog Bro seemed very eager and hadn't even noticed that Qin Huan's restraints had been entirely removed.
He quickly said to Zhang Feng:
"Brothers! Run fast!!"
