Chapter 1397: Escape
Chapter 1397: Escape
After entering, their eyes met.
Catherine pointed her gun at Ling Feng, unwaveringly.
Ling Feng looked at her, "Are you leaving?"
"Who are you?"
Catherine’s Huaxia language was quite standard as she coldly asked, staring into Ling Feng’s eyes.
"Who do you think I could be?"
Ling Feng shrugged, turning to look at the burning documents in the kitchen, "Burning those, trying to cover up something?"
"..."
Catherine stayed silent, her gaze flickering.
"At this point, you should stop thinking about escaping. No one has ever left from my hands!" Ling Feng said calmly.
Catherine looked at him and suddenly smiled!
The smile bloomed like a hundred flowers, remarkably stunning, causing Ling Feng to pause!
Then, Catherine put down the gun and casually tossed it onto the sofa, "Didn’t expect you to arrive so quickly!"
"Oh? You know me?"
Ling Feng asked with curiosity.
Catherine slowly sat down, crossing her legs, "Ling Feng’s famous name, who doesn’t know it by now?"
"Oh, that’s even better. Since you know me, you must realize you can’t escape, so cooperate!" Ling Feng said.
Catherine looked up at him, with a hint of provocation, "Who said I couldn’t escape?"
"If you want to try, go ahead. But be prepared to handle the consequences!" Ling Feng said casually.
After speaking, he sensed that the woman might be stalling for time, so he stepped into the kitchen, quickly extinguished the flames, and took out the half-burned documents.
Catherine didn’t move, just watched quietly. When Ling Feng came out of the kitchen, she asked, "Did Shen Liang tell you my residence?"
"Sort of. He intended to protect you, but I have special methods, so I got it out of him!" Ling Feng nodded, seeing the files were all in English, he simply set them aside.
Catherine nodded, "You’re indeed quite impressive!"
"Right? I think so too!" Ling Feng replied with a smug smile.
"Meeting you this time is not in vain, until we meet again!"
Catherine said, her body starting to become transparent!
"Hmm?"
Ling Feng was greatly surprised, immediately rushing forward to stop her!
Reaching out, his hand passed directly through her body.
"We will meet again!"
Her figure was fading rapidly, almost invisible, yet she left him with a final word.
Then her silhouette disappeared, leaving the room suddenly empty.
Ling Feng stood there stunned for a moment, then he scanned with his Divine Sense, finding no trace of Catherine within a kilometer.
At this time, on a freighter by The Bund, Catherine reappeared and quickly went to the captain’s room.
The bearded foreign captain was leisurely sipping coffee, and upon seeing her, he stood up immediately.
"Mission failed, I need to leave Huaxia immediately, set sail!" Catherine said in English.
The captain nodded right away, took out the ship’s intercom system, and notified the crew to prepare to set sail.
Afterward, Catherine went to the deck, looking at the tall buildings along the shore, she spoke to herself, "Ling Feng, next time we meet, I’ll make sure to learn your skills well!"
...
...
At this moment, Ling Feng was already cleaning up the scene, he had turned the room upside down, taking away everything useful and useless, then left the neighborhood, heading straight to the security bureau.
Zhang He was no longer here, but there were still a few familiar faces, so upon arrival, Ling Feng handed over everything from Catherine’s room to them.
As for the follow-up work, that wasn’t his concern.
Then Ling Feng left, taking a car to Lin Huaqiang’s house.
The Lin Family was preparing dinner, and seeing him arrive, Lin Huaqiang smiled, "You have good fortune for food, coming at the perfect time!"
Ling Feng smiled bitterly as he noticed Lin Xue looking at him, so he went over and sat on the sofa, "I failed!"
"What happened?" Lin Xue asked.
"She used a method I’m unfamiliar with."
Ling Feng described the events at Catherine’s house, then said, "The way she left was very unique, unlike teleportation, it should be a new technique by the Americans!"
"That’s not surprising, you can teleport, others will develop different methods of transfer." Lin Xue nodded, then frowned in thought.
Seeing her pondering, Ling Feng didn’t interrupt.
After a moment, Lin Xue asked, "When will there be news from the security bureau?"
"Hard to say, the files she left are incomplete, and whether other items hold any clues is uncertain." Ling Feng replied.
"Alright." Lin Xue nodded, then got up and headed to the kitchen, "Dad, I want to check the aviation and port departure information. Can you help me?"
"You girl have become a workaholic, eat first, we’ll talk after dinner!" Lin Huaqiang’s voice came from the kitchen.
"Oh dad, it’s important, I’m in a hurry!" Lin Xue entered the kitchen, starting to act spoiled.
Finally, Lin Huaqiang was helpless, wiping his hands, he took the phone to contact someone.
Ling Feng found it amusing and laughed secretly, though he didn’t show it outwardly.
A few minutes later, Lin Xue found an abnormal situation, a cargo ship registered in South America suddenly left port!
The ship’s records indicated it was supposed to leave a week later, but now it changed its schedule abruptly!
After searching the ship’s hull number online, Lin Xue said to Ling Feng, "Catherine is very likely on that ship!"
"Is there still time to chase it?" Ling Feng asked.
"Even if there’s time, I wouldn’t recommend you chase it." Lin Xue said, pausing before continuing, "We only suspect, and the ship’s registered location is in South America, not related to Americans. Charging aboard could easily cause a diplomatic crisis."
"So we can only watch her leave?" Ling Feng asked.
"Not exactly, we can still monitor where she goes. Leave it to me, I’ll handle it!" Lin Xue replied.
"Alright, what a pity!"
Ling Feng sighed with a bitter smile, then said, "Next time I see that woman, I’ll immediately control her with Mind Soul Art, to prevent her from escaping again!"
"Alright, enough talk! Dinner’s ready!"
Lin Huaqiang came out from the kitchen wearing an apron, carrying two dishes.
Ling Feng and Lin Xue immediately stopped discussing work, washed their hands, and went to the dining room together.
The dinner consisted of four people, a family of four, with a warm, harmonious atmosphere.
Ling Feng opened the rice wine he brought, Lin Huaqiang took a deep breath, "Great wine!"
"That Lingyun Tea, my dad and I have already tasted it, this wine also seems extraordinary!" Lin Hu commented.
"Of course, you’ll know once you taste it!" Ling Feng laughed.
