The Greatest Village Doctor In The World

Chapter 1158 You can leave now

Upon hearing Ling Feng’s words, Sato Saori was taken aback, then immediately stood up and asked eagerly, "You’ve seen my father, where is he?"

Ling Feng did not answer, but instead looked at her and asked, "Now I’m the one asking you!"

"My father is indeed from the Shadow Group, but I’m not. I’ve never joined. The reason the Shadow Group’s people protect me is because they were my father’s subordinates!" Sato Saori quickly said.

Ling Feng nodded slightly, feeling this answer was credible, so he nodded, "Alright, let me ask you, why are you so interested in these so-called ruins here?"

"I can only say I’m very fascinated by Huaxia’s ancient legends, and I came here to pursue the answer to one such legend." Sato Saori said.

"What is it?" Ling Feng asked.

"The legend of Fuxi, I’ve heard there’s his tomb here." Sato Saori said.

"If that’s the reason, why pretend to be someone mining, and why act so sneaky?" Ling Feng questioned.

"This..."

Sato Saori pondered for a moment, "I was just protecting myself. After all, in Huaxia, some people look at people from Dongying with prejudice. If my identity were exposed, I might find it hard to move in the countryside."

That reason seemed plausible since people from Huaxia inherently have a poor impression of people from Dongying.

A group of people from Dongying conducting mountain surveys would certainly be met with suspicion regardless of their reasons.

So Ling Feng nodded after hearing this, "Even though what you said is reasonable, I still can’t let you go just like that!"

"I understand the Shadow Group’s actions were indeed excessive, and I’m willing to cooperate with your work!" Sato Saori said.

Ling Feng smiled, "Don’t just throw the blame on the dead, your actions were also somewhat over the line!"

"Me?"

Sato Saori was startled, then looked at Ye Qian and Chen Yan, "Aren’t these two girls your girlfriends? I was only trying to distract you."

"You’ve misunderstood, they are my colleagues and friends, not in a romantic relationship!" Ling Feng quickly said.

He thought to himself that this girl’s thinking was quite open to even consider that.

Upon hearing this, Sato Saori immediately nodded slightly to Chen Yan, "Sorry, I didn’t know you weren’t a couple."

Chen Yan, who had been silent all along, finally spoke up, "You really should apologize, making me do such a thing!"

"Uh...."

Ling Feng didn’t want to continue on this topic, so he quickly said, "Now, let’s talk about the arrangements for later."

"What arrangements?" Ye Qian asked.

"I’ll take her back to Longyuan first, and you two stay, I’ll come back to pick you up later." Ling Feng said.

"Why not go together?" Chen Yan asked.

"Leaving suddenly in the dead of night, without the Village Chief and Old Li knowing what happened, doesn’t feel right." Ling Feng explained.

"Alright then, anyway, you need to come back to study the chicken farming issue, we’ll wait for you!" Ye Qian said.

Chen Yan glanced at Ling Feng, her eyes flickered, but she said nothing.

So Ling Feng took Sato Saori with him, and driving under the night sky, they left Mountain God Temple Village.

On the way back to Longyuan, Sato Saori hesitated for a moment then asked, "Um, do you know my father’s whereabouts? He’s been missing for a long time."

Ling Feng also hesitated, thought for a moment and said, "He went missing in Mianluo Country, there’s a high chance that he’s already dead."

Sato Saori lowered her head and didn’t say anything further.

Recalling that Sato was willing to use this girl as a hostage to hand over to him just to save his life, a complex feeling arose in Ling Feng’s heart.

So after a moment of silence, he couldn’t help but ask, "You must be very sad, right?"

Surprisingly, Sato Saori shook her head, "No, he died, I’m not surprised at all!"

"Oh?"

Ling Feng was stunned, and turned towards her in amazement, "Why?"

"This is my family matter, I don’t want to talk about it!" Sato Saori said.

"Alright then."

Ling Feng nodded and did not ask any more questions.

He wasn’t worried about Sato Saori finding out that he killed Sato, after all, they weren’t friends now.

But seeing that she seemed indifferent to Sato’s death, Ling Feng found it somewhat strange.

Soon after, the car returned to Longyuan, and Ling Feng took Sato Saori to Zhang He’s office.

Seeing a strange girl in black follow him in, Zhang He was immediately taken aback.

"She’s Sato Saori, from Dongying...."

Ling Feng briefly explained the situation, and Zhang He widened his eyes, "Wow, you brat, aiming for a surprise attack?"

"What about it? With what just happened today, what’s the difference between calling and coming back to report?" Ling Feng laughed.

Zhang He was speechless, giving him a glance, then looked at Sato, "It’s late, Miss Sato will have to stay with us tonight, any matters can be discussed tomorrow!"

"Alright, but I have some things still at Mountain God Temple Village, I hope you can help me bring them back." Sato Saori said.

"No problem, Ling Feng will handle it for you!" Zhang He said.

Sato Saori looked at Ling Feng but said nothing, her expression as calm as a still autumn lake.

Ling Feng was helpless and could only nod, "Alright."

After Sato Saori was taken away by staff, Ling Feng looked at Zhang He with his red eyes once they were the only two left: "I thought you’d be asleep by now, working overtime so late?"

"None of your business, what’s up with this Sato?" Zhang He asked.

"Don’t ask me, you can ask her tomorrow. She was very cooperative on my end, told me everything, but I still feel something’s not quite right, there might be some issues!" Ling Feng said.

"Is that so? Then wouldn’t it be better to stay and interrogate her? After all, the girl is quite pretty!" Zhang He said.

Ling Feng knew what he meant and glared at him, "Stop it, don’t I have enough on my plate?"

He paused for a moment, then continued, "This girl knows a kind of Spirit Possession technique, she can invade people’s minds, you’d better be careful, don’t let her cause any trouble."

"Oh, I got it!"

Zhang He nodded and then looked at him, "You can go now!"

Ling Feng was speechless, staring at him in amazement, "So late, where do you want me to go?"

"How would I know, go wherever you want, don’t you know where to find a place to sleep?" Zhang He teased.

"Uh...."

Ling Feng was also helpless, gave him a white-eyed look, and stood up, "Then I’m off!"

After saying this, he got in the car and left. Looking at the time, it was already midnight, and after thinking for a moment, he dialed Mo Jiaolan’s number.

The phone rang for a while before her murmuring voice came through, "Hmm?"

"Asleep? Sorry to disturb you." Ling Feng chuckled awkwardly.

"It’s fine, what’s up?" Mo Jiaolan asked softly.

"I’m in town, I want to meet you." Ling Feng said.
