Chapter 2005 — Someone Came?
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 2
Otherwise, an unfamiliar presence would surely have registered on him—and it had not.
"There shouldn't have been anyone…" Feng Sanmang frowned, then shook his head in denial. "While you were sitting cross-legged on the ground, it should have been just the four of us in the alley…"
"The four of us? Then no one should have been here to scatter Corpse-Dissolving Powder. Which means this Earth-Rank man in black must have bitten open a capsule in his mouth, or some mechanism on his mask, before he died…" Wei Zhao thought back to that vicious late-peak Profound-Rank expert on the airport expressway, who had blasted apart his own head. If a man could do that to himself, it was hardly surprising that this Earth-Rank man in black could destroy his own face.
"That must be it!" Feng Sanmang nodded. Earlier, though Xu Shilan and Cheng Yiyi had been frantic, no one else should have entered the alley.
"Let's look at the other one!" Wei Zhao pointed at the other man in black not far off. But his eyes were sharp; one look and he shook his head in disappointment. "He's finished too—no need to look…"
Feng Sanmang, unwilling to give up, went over and looked again, and indeed found that the other Profound-Rank man in black was also unrecognizable beyond all recognition.
"No good—these people are devilishly cunning!" Feng Sanmang said bitterly. "We don't even know who they are now. How infuriating!"
"Never mind. I'll notify someone to deal with the bodies, then we'll go identify the earlier corpses." Wei Zhao said.
"Oh? You have connections?" Feng Sanmang brightened at once at his words.
"Yang Huaijun at the police bureau is a good brother of mine." Wei Zhao said.
"But… as far as I know, those bodies have already been taken to the Mystery Investigation Bureau…" Feng Sanmang said with a bitter smile. "We'll have to find someone at the Mystery Investigation Bureau…"
"Ha, my father-in-law is one of them…" Wei Zhao shrugged and laughed.
"Father-in-law?" Feng Sanmang was stunned.
"Feng Xiaoxiao's father, Feng Tianlong." Xu Shilan knew, and explained to Feng Sanmang.
"Feng Tianlong… hiss…" Feng Sanmang was startled and drew a sharp breath.
"What is it?" Wei Zhao and Xu Shilan both found his expression strange.
"Nothing… I'm just surprised that Brother Lin's father-in-law turns out to be someone from the Mystery Investigation Bureau." Feng Sanmang said with a bitter smile.
"Oh, I'll call him right now." With that, Wei Zhao phoned Feng Tianlong directly and told him what had happened here. Sure enough, the bodies had all been taken to the Mystery Investigation Bureau—only, to this moment, no faction had come forward to claim them or acknowledge any connection to these men.
