Chapter 73: Challenge History
"Name?"
"Li Fei."
"...The one from Wuda?"
"Yes, freshman at Wuda, Li Fei."
"Nice to meet you."
"..."
After the Inspector arrived at the scene, he questioned Li Fei extensively, and his attitude became much more polite upon learning Li Fei's identity.
As the unparalleled genius of Wuda, Li Fei's name was already well known throughout Datong Prefecture City; even ordinary Inspectors had heard of him.
"Do you need to go to the hospital first?"
Upon seeing that Li Fei had gunshot wounds, and more than one, the arriving Inspector asked if Li Fei needed to go to the hospital first.
They could not afford the responsibility of having Wuda's unparalleled genius die in front of them.
"No need, I can handle it myself."
Li Fei refused.
After politely inquiring about the incident, the on-scene team leader realized that the situation was not simple and beyond their decision-making, so he immediately sent someone back to the Inspection General Bureau to report.
A few minutes later, before the people from the Inspection General Bureau arrived, the vehicle from the Inspection General Office got there first.
Several men in deep black robes and round hats briskly walked over, showed their badges to the surrounding Inspectors, and then approached Li Fei.
One of the men handed his badge to Li Fei with both hands, very politely saying,
"My name is Hong Liheng, Second Level Inspector from the Inspection General Office."
Li Fei took the man's badge, glanced at it, and nodded, "Hello."
"May we handle this matter at the Inspection General Office?"
Hong Liheng asked.
Looking into the man's eyes, Li Fei immediately understood,
"That's fine by me, but what about the Inspection General Bureau?"
"Leave that to me,"
Hong Liheng said.
Li Fei: "Alright."
Hong then turned to communicate with the team leader.
A few minutes later, a Platoon Leader from the Inspection General Bureau arrived and called all the Inspectors at the scene away.
"Sir, would you mind coming back with us?"
Hong Liheng walked up to Li Fei and whispered.
He knew of Li Fei's secret inspector identity and that Li Fei's rank was higher than his, so he addressed Li Fei as a superior.
"Okay."
Li Fei nodded.
Soon, he got into the vehicle of the Inspection General Office and returned to the Inspection General Office with Hong Liheng and others.
Contrary to the creepy and eerie atmosphere people might imagine, the Inspection General Office was brightly lit at night, bustling with people coming and going.
It looked very lively.
After waiting in a reception room for a while, Xia Huan walked in.
"How are your wounds?"
Xia Huan asked as soon as he entered.
Li Fei: "It's all taken care of now, thank you for your concern, Sir Xia."
He had had five bullets in him but had already managed to push the bullets out of his body with his Qi and stop the bleeding.
"We will definitely investigate tonight's attack thoroughly and give you an explanation!"
Xia Huan promised.
Since meeting the Green-faced Ghost through Li Fei had been successful previously, the Inspection General Office now valued Li Fei even more.
They had taken the case from the Inspection General Bureau immediately this time to better ingratiate themselves with Li Fei.
"Thank you, Sir Xia."
Li Fei nodded.
He really wanted to know who had hired a group of people to kill him.
Poison King? Gun King?
At this time, those two were the most suspicious, but it was also possible that someone else wanted to take advantage of the chaos.
After all, there were so many powers in Datong Prefecture, and people's intentions were unfathomable.
Xia Huan sat with Li Fei for a while; then, someone pushed the door open and handed him a document.
He glanced at it, then handed the document directly to Li Fei,
"We found out who attacked you tonight. The leader's code name is 'Casing,' and his team is a well-known assassination squad from the provincial city."
Li Fei took the documentation and began reading; it detailed the information and past achievements of the team members led by 'Casing.'
Upon seeing that this team had successfully assassinated three Tao Foundation Stage experts, Li Fei looked surprised.
"To survive tonight and kill three of their main forces is really astonishing, truly worthy of being the unparalleled genius!"
Xia Huan exclaimed.
That a team capable of assassinating Tao Foundation Stage experts had failed against Li Fei, a Qi Change Late Stage Refining Strength Martial Master, was something few would believe.
But considering Li Fei was already recognized as an unparalleled genius, any kind of miracle could happen to him, so Xia Huan didn't harbor any doubts and only deepened his understanding of Li Fei's extraordinary status.
"Good luck, I suppose. I was nearly killed."
Li Fei calmly said.
He had not left any survivors to keep 'Casing' and his team from revealing his real combat power.
He had carefully handled the corpses and the battlefield so that nothing would give him away.
Xia Huan glanced at the gunshot wound on Li Fei's neck and nodded,
"Having good luck is also part of one's strength. If it were any other Refining Strength Martial Master, no matter how lucky, they couldn't have survived."
Li Fei chuckled, saying nothing more.
"Don't worry, we will keep the details of tonight's battle strictly confidential."
Xia Huan continued, "Also, the team consisted of more than three people. We have deployed forces throughout the city to capture the remaining members, which may lead us to the mastermind behind this."
"Thank you, Sir Xia."
Li Fei courteously thanked him.
"You're too polite."
Xia Huan shook his head and smiled.
A few minutes later, Xia Huan arranged for a team to escort Li Fei back to Wuda.
