Chapter 1437: The Scheme
Chapter 1437: The Scheme
As he was thinking, the phone rang.
Seeing it was Zhang He calling, Ling Feng answered, "What’s up?"
"Has the plane landed yet? Have you found anything there?" Zhang He asked.
Ling Feng chuckled, "You’re more anxious than I am!"
Then he continued, "Catherine seems very cautious. I’ve looked but didn’t find a trace of her on the plane!"
"She boarded using her real name, but her appearance might have changed. You should check again. After all, there are only so many passengers on the plane, young women, totaling just a few dozen. You’ll certainly find her!" Zhang He said.
"Got it. Wait for my update, no need to rush me!"
Ling Feng said and directly hung up the phone.
After a while, the passengers on the plane started preparing to disembark.
Ling Feng’s Divine Sense scanned back and forth, but still didn’t find any passenger that matched Catherine.
He had only met her once, but had a strong impression of her physique and appearance, so Ling Feng was somewhat perplexed when he didn’t find her.
Yu Linglong then said, "Don’t focus on singular traits. The opponent has certainly used the Art of Disguise, which doesn’t only alter the face but can change hair color, height, and even physique!"
"Yes, I understand!"
Ling Feng had studied the Art of Disguise book he obtained, which indeed mentioned this.
He had never needed to do this himself, so he didn’t take it seriously.
Now, after Yu Linglong’s reminder, Ling Feng once again rescanned each passenger.
Still found nothing.
At this time, the passengers on the plane had disembarked, taking the shuttle bus to the exit.
Cheng Xiao, with a large suitcase, emerged worn-out along with the crowd.
Unexpectedly, at the exit, she didn’t rush to pass but stood aside, as if waiting for someone.
Ling Feng felt strange, his attention shifted to her.
Soon, passengers had passed through and left, leaving her as the only one yet to pass.
Ling Feng was curious and almost called to ask what she was doing!
But before he could, the flight crew came out.
Two captains and five flight attendants appeared together, an attractive combination of handsome men and beautiful women.
Cheng Xiao smiled, met up with a stewardess, and both passed through the exit together.
Ling Feng understood they were waiting for a friend!
When previous passengers passed, he didn’t see Catherine’s name on anyone’s documents. Now it was just these few; if still unnoticed, he’d suspect she switched planes in America.
When Cheng Xiao and the stewardess reached the exit and handed over their documents, Ling Feng was suddenly stunned!
The stewardess’s document showed her Chinese name: "Catherine!"
"What the heck?"
Ling Feng cursed, visibly dumbfounded.
Yu Linglong’s Divine Sense was also observing, and she glanced at him, "Surprised?"
"Isn’t it obvious!"
The stewardess was only 160 cm tall, had black hair, dark eyes, but a Western face.
This appearance was vastly different from the Catherine he had seen before, clearly not the same person!
Ling Feng thought she was indeed crafty!
But now, it’s evident Catherine has some connection with Cheng Xiao, which means he doesn’t have to worry about her escaping!
Following this, Ling Feng made no more moves; he waited until Cheng Xiao and Catherine had left and got into a car, then instructed the driver to follow them.
During the tracking, Ling Feng called Zheng Yitong.
"Ling Brother!"
Zheng Yitong was thrilled, answering sweetly and asking, "You’re looking for me?"
"Yes, Yi Tong, I’d like your help with something."
Ling Feng smiled, didn’t elaborate, but asked her to call Cheng Xiao to check on her upcoming plans.
Zheng Yitong readily agreed, and soon after hanging up, Ling Feng’s Divine Sense showed Cheng Xiao’s phone ringing in the car ahead.
Afterward, the two best friends chatted briefly, and Ling Feng heard what he needed.
Cheng Xiao had met a new friend on the plane, and since they were staying on Harbor Island for two days, she decided to book a hotel for her friend, then show her around Harbor Island.
Because she was just back from a business trip, Cheng Xiao had vacation days to use and thus had time.
Ling Feng understood and looked back at Yu Linglong, "What’s this woman’s purpose, actually seeking out Cheng Xiao?"
"Maybe it’s random, and within these two days, she might seize an opportunity to leave!" Yu Linglong said.
The driver followed the front car into Harbor Island city, then stopped at a five-star hotel.
Ling Feng watched Cheng Xiao and Catherine enter the hotel, pondered briefly, and then told the driver, "Drive back to the hillside villa."
Yu Linglong was puzzled, "What? No more tracking?"
"No hurry. I’ll find a chance to confront Catherine tonight, I’m curious about her reaction when exposed!" Ling Feng laughed.
Thus the car returned to the mountainside villa.
As soon as they got out, Zheng Yitong came running from her house.
Ling Feng saw her and said with a smile, "Perfect timing, we’ll discuss tonight’s plan!"
"Ling Brother, what happened, why are you suddenly interested in Xiao Xiao?" Zheng Yitong asked curiously.
"You’re mistaken, I’m interested in the stewardess with her!"
Ling Feng laughed and then explained, "This woman is an important target, and she came to Huaxia for an undisclosed purpose!"
After hearing about Catherine from him, Zheng Yitong was shocked, "Why would she target Xiao Xiao?"
"Hard to say, maybe random timing, or perhaps there’s a motive we don’t know, but it doesn’t matter, tonight we’ll find out!"
Ling Feng laughed, then said to Zheng Yitong, "Call Cheng Xiao later to invite her over for dinner, she has a friend, should bring Catherine too!"
"Got it!"
Zheng Yitong nodded and said, "I’ll arrange it later!"
"Definitely!"
Ling Feng smiled and turned to Yu Linglong, "Let’s not idle, can’t let her escape again this time, better set up a teleportation restriction formation!"
"Alright!"
Yu Linglong nodded, and the two immediately began preparing in the house.
As evening arrived, with dusk yet to fall, Cheng Xiao and Catherine came by car to the hillside villa.
Ling Feng and Yu Linglong were standing in a room on the second floor, watching the car enter the courtyard next door, and then quickly went downstairs and followed over.
By this time, Cheng Xiao and the others had already entered the villa, and were introducing Catherine to Zheng Yitong!
"Miss Cheng, you’ve brought a new friend?"
Ling Feng, holding Yu Linglong’s hand, walked in with a smile!
