Chapter 622 News of the Spirit Stone
Chapter 622 News of the Spirit Stone
About the woman in the hospital and her accomplices, Sun Hao was also completely clueless.
So at this juncture, he just smiled and continued, "I’ve arranged for people to investigate, but there’s no news for the time being."
After chatting for a while more, as the clock struck two in the afternoon, Sun Hao stood up and said, "I’ve intruded on Mr. Ling’s time, and this trip has been quite fruitful. But I have matters at home, so I’ll take my leave now!"
"You’re leaving just after arrival?" Ling Feng stood up and asked.
"I’ll come again when I have the chance. If Mr. Ling doesn’t mind, I might come to bother you often!" Sun Hao said with a laugh.
Ling Feng knew what he was referring to, and with a smile, he said, "Always welcome; I’ll keep the good wine and good meat ready for you!"
Hearing this, the fatty flesh on Sun Hao’s face beamed like a flower, and he stretched out his plump palm to shake hands with Ling Feng: "We had a little misunderstanding before, just minor matters. From now on, we’re friends!"
Considering the ten million, Ling Feng couldn’t afford to snub him, so he nodded with a smile, "Of course, definitely!"
After seeing Sun Hao off, Ling Feng and Lin Huaqiang returned inside. Seeing Lin Huaqiang frowning, Ling Feng curiously asked, "What’s wrong, Uncle Lin? Did you think of something?"
"Sun Hao’s comments gave me a wake-up call. There are a lot of details in this case that we don’t know about. To find the person who poisoned me, these details are crucial!" Lin Huaqiang said.
Ling Feng nodded, "That’s true, but we don’t have any leads on Yu Nan’s whereabouts. Where do we start looking for him?"
Lin Huaqiang sighed, "Indeed, that’s truly troubling."
While they were speaking, Ling Feng’s phone rang.
Seeing it was Wang Laogen, he answered with curiosity, "What’s up?"
"What’s the name of the person who wanted to exchange the Spirit Stone for your jade bracelet?" Wang Laogen asked.
"Huh?"
Ling Feng was momentarily stunned and then replied blankly, "I just heard his name was Yu Nan. What’s up?"
Wang Laogen chuckled, "I don’t know if it’s divine intervention, but this Yu Nan has shown up!"
"What!"
Ling Feng, hearing this, immediately stood up and asked loudly, "Where is he?"
"Don’t get so worked up. Chu Bo and I are headed back. I’ll tell you when we get home; that’s it!"
Wang Laogen’s usual habit was to hang up without giving Ling Feng a chance to react.
Ling Feng was speechless, and Lin Huaqiang then asked, "What’s going on?"
"Old Wang has news of Yu Nan!" Ling Feng said.
Lin Huaqiang’s eyes widened in surprise, "Ah? How did he find out?"
Logically, Wang Laogen had never seen Yu Nan, and neither Ling Feng nor his associates had asked him to help with the investigation. So how did he suddenly come to know of this man?
Fortunately, the mountain location wasn’t far from Ling Feng’s home, so after waiting for a few minutes, Wang Laogen arrived with Chu Nan.
Seeing the self-satisfied smile on Wang Laogen’s face made Ling Feng internally speechless. If it weren’t for his advanced age, Ling Feng really wanted to grab his shoulders and give him a good shake!
Noticing their urgency, Wang Laogen didn’t continue to ramble. Upon entering, he said, "I thought of that guy Yu Nan because he’s selling the Spirit Stone he has in hand!"
"I have one of those things too, so at a glance, I knew it was from you, Ling Feng!"
Ling Feng then understood and hesitated before asking, "Then how can you be certain he’s the one who took my Spirit Stone, and not the ones who kidnapped him and stole the Stone?"
"Uh..."
That question stumped Wang Laogen, leaving him unable to think of a response. He then chuckled, "Well, what does it matter? After all, it’s still a clue. What’s the difference between finding the kidnapper and finding him himself?"
Ling Feng rolled his eyes, "Fine, I won’t argue with you. Where’s the guy?"
Wang Laogen chuckled, "Europe."
"What?"
Ling Feng was stunned to hear that location!
Europe was so far away, what was the use of knowing that?
Even if he took a flight now, it would still take over ten hours, right?
Would there be enough time?
So he glared at Wang Laogen, Ling Feng said helplessly, "Although this information is important, it’s not very useful to me, I can’t just fly to Europe to find him!"
"That’s a bit too pessimistic, just because you can’t go doesn’t mean others can’t!"
Wang Laogen gave him a look.
Lin Huaqiang was also somewhat worried; his influence was mainly within Huaxia, with the greatest extent in Demon Capital. He had hardly ventured overseas...
Now hearing Wang Laogen’s words, his initially disappointed mood began to rise from rock bottom, and he quickly asked, "Who is this ’someone else’?"
"He’s talking about me,"
Chu Nan said with a light smile.
Ling Feng looked at him with some confusion and asked, "Teacher, do you have acquaintances in Europe?"
"Sort of. Haven’t you noticed? The Chu Family’s power is not small, yet up until now, you’ve only met Chu Bo and myself!"
"That’s right, Old Chu’s sons and daughters are over in Europe. They more or less rule the roost there!" said Wang Laogen.
Chu Nan glared at him, "Tsk, those are your nieces and nephews. Can’t you use better vocabulary?"
After finishing, he looked at Ling Feng and Lin Huaqiang, "My son and daughter indeed have some renown over there. One is a mayor, and the other is an MP of a small country."
Ling Feng: "..."
Originally thinking they were involved in business or education, Ling Feng didn’t expect the old man’s children to be politicians in Europe. He was speechless, "Old man, what kind of plan is this?"
"What plan? I studied in Europe when I was young and had some connection with the nobles there. What’s the problem with my children growing up and settling down over there?" Chu Nan asked.
"No, no problem at all, that’s very good!" Ling Feng said with an awkward smile.
After finishing, he quickly turned back to the main subject, "Could your two children help us check if the person is really Yu Nan, or if it’s someone who has kidnapped him?"
"You don’t need to tell me that; I’ve already arranged it. Just wait for the news!" Chu Nan said.
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng was elated and turned to look at Lin Huaqiang, "It’s like finding a way out when all seemed lost. There’s a turn of events!"
"Indeed, you could say it’s another case of allies appearing in times of need!" Lin Huaqiang said with a laugh.
They waited, and as evening approached,
as the sun was about to set, Ling Feng and the others finally got the results of the investigation. The person preparing to sell the Spirit Stone was not Yu Nan, but someone working for him!
And Yu Nan was indeed in Europe, staying at a five-star hotel in the capital of a certain country.
But now came the thorny issue.
Chu Nan’s children were in politics, not the underworld; they couldn’t just tie up Yu Nan and ship him back to the homeland!
Besides, a live person was not something you could just bring back whenever you wanted.
Thus, the key person to solve this issue turned out to be Ling Feng.
Even though it was already dark, he still drove in a hurry to the Security Bureau.
