The Greatest Village Doctor In The World

Chapter 729: The Invisible Man

The video playback speed was fast, but Ling Feng still felt it a bit slow, so he said, "Speed it up more."

"Sure."

Song Bao pressed the remote, and the playback speed shot up to sixteen times faster.

The camera was fixed well, pointing at an area where no one walked by, so the screen looked almost static except for the changing light intensity, with no anomalies.

An eight-hour video, after being accelerated sixteen times, finished playing in just half an hour.

There were no findings.

Ling Feng: "Change to another one!"

Song Bao didn’t hesitate and opened another video.

This one was facing the front door of the building. As soon as the image flickered, Ling Feng asked him to stop: "Don’t bother with this one, switch to another!"

"Why not watch this one?" Wang Laogen asked.

Ling Feng looked back at him: "If I were the one wanting to sneak in here, knowing about the surveillance, I definitely wouldn’t go through here. It’s too easy to leave traces!"

After speaking, he turned back to Song Bao: "Think about it, which location would be most likely overlooked and not easily detected?"

Song Bao frowned and thought for a moment: "Then it’s probably this one!"

After saying that, he retrieved a video and started to play it.

The camera was aimed at the corner of the building’s east side, where there was a wall, and beyond it stood several lush trees. In the night’s infrared mode, the branches and leaves were all white.

Looking at the screen, Ling Feng nodded: "Let’s go with this one, still at sixteen times speed."

The video began to play at the designated speed, while Wang Laogen became a bit restless, standing up and pacing back and forth. If not for Ling Feng’s stern glance, the old man probably would have exploded.

Subdued by Ling Feng’s glare, he sat down again.

The room was silent; everyone’s gaze was fixed on the screen, not wanting to miss any slight detail or clue.

When the playback reached about two o’clock in the morning, Ling Feng suddenly said, "Stop!"

Song Bao quickly pressed the remote and then asked, "What’s wrong?"

"Rewind three minutes."

The video rapidly rewound to two-oh-five, and Ling Feng nodded: "Play at normal speed!"

"Sure!"

Song Bao pressed play, and Wang Laogen couldn’t help but ask, "What have you found?"

"I’ll talk about it later!"

Ling Feng’s eyes never left the television, closely watching the screen.

Seeing this, everyone else simply watched as well, their eyes aching from the strain.

But when the video reached two-oh-six, Zhou Yi also noticed something odd in the corner of the wall on the screen: "There seems to be something here!"

"Correct, keep watching!" Ling Feng nodded and said gravely.

"What is that?"

As the seconds on the video ticked by, Wang Laogen moved closer, squinting his eyes and asking.

"What does it look like?" Ling Feng asked.

"Is it an issue with the filming quality?" Chu Nan asked.

Wang Laogen turned back: "Impossible. I use the best equipment. The power supply is stable, and the connection is solid; there can’t be a problem with the image!"

"Then why are there ripples, as if the air is flowing?" Chu Nan continued.

Ling Feng looked at him, then at Zhou Yi: "Do you have any ideas?"

"The disturbance starts at the corner and spreads to the lower level — it obviously has a purpose!"

Zhou Yi thought for a while, then said: "Why do I feel like it’s similar to an invisibility effect that isn’t completely perfect?"

"That’s exactly it!"

Ling Feng slapped his thigh, turned his head to look at Wang Laogen, "You love watching movies, right? Do you remember seeing a similar scenario? It’s that kind of scene where someone is wearing an invisibility cloak, but they still cause air disturbances, making them easy to spot with the naked eye."

"I think I’ve seen it!" Wang Laogen’s eyes widened.

"So we’ve found the problem, the other party has invisibility equipment and sneaked in!" Ling Feng said.

"And then what?"

Wang Laogen was startled, then asked.

Ling Feng shook his head, "Then, we can only wait!"

"That’s it?"

Wang Laogen looked speechless, feeling that this discovery was of no value.

Ling Feng glanced at him, "It’s still better than knowing nothing at all. At the very least, we know our opponent has something we don’t understand. If they contact us, we can be prepared, right?"

"But that assumes they’ll contact us. So far, there’s been no movement!" Wang Laogen furrowed his brow again.

Regarding this, Ling Feng had no ideas and could only offer a wry smile.

Finding out that the other party could become invisible didn’t help much in finding Mo Lan, which was an undeniable fact. And after that person entered the house, how they controlled her, and how they left is all unknown!

Ling Feng could understand Wang Laogen’s feelings and didn’t know how to comfort him, so he chose to remain silent and frowned in thought.

Just then, his phone rang, breaking the silence in the room.

Seeing that it was Zhang Lan calling, Ling Feng answered, "What’s up, Sister Lan?"

"I heard from everyone that you went to the provincial city?"

"Yes, there was a bit of trouble with Mo Lan. Do you need me for something?" Ling Feng asked.

"I ran into some trouble too..."

Ling Feng’s brow furrowed, "What happened?"

"I went to the company this morning and found the safe pried open. All the important documents inside are gone, and the company seal is missing."

"Hmm?"

Ling Feng immediately asked, "Who do you think did it?"

Zhang Lan was silent for a moment, "The only person I can think of is Luo Qianyang."

"That kid has been quiet for a while. After he secretly took the property documents last time, there was no activity. Why has he suddenly sprung into action now?"

Ling Feng also felt certain it was Luo Qianyang, with no need to consider anyone else, so he half mumbled to himself.

"I think he might have been brewing something, and now he’s finally making his move," Zhang Lan said gravely.

"Hmm, Sister Lan, you better come back first. I’m at Mo Lan Manor. If you have time later, we can meet up and talk!"

Ling Feng nodded, then hung up the phone.

Looking up to see everyone staring at him, Ling Feng offered a wry smile, "Two incidents have come up at once!"

"Could the two be connected?" Zhou Yi asked.

"You’re saying that Mo Lan’s situation is also related to him?"

Ling Feng narrowed his eyes, thinking there could indeed be a possibility!

One was a person disappearing without a trace, the other was a theft, and Zhang Lan probably hadn’t spotted who did it.

Just as they discovered someone could become invisible, something was stolen on her side. Could it really be the work of the same person?

Thinking this, Ling Feng dialed Zhang Lan’s number again and then said, "Bring the company surveillance footage when you come, I want to take a look."

"I have it with me. You’ll find it strange just like I did after you see it," Zhang Lan said.

Ling Feng’s heart skipped a beat, "What do you mean? Have you discovered someone can be invisible?"
