He s Actually A Sexy Girl? I Erected! - Chapter 189

Chapter 189: 【189】This woman, she has a story!_1

The officers from the Public Affairs Hall arrived quickly and took away the man who’d attempted suicide.

This already constituted disturbing the peace, so he’d probably be detained for a few days.

But that was no longer any of Tang Feng’s concern.

When he stepped out of the building, he was greeted with warm applause.

The onlookers at the scene looked at him with eyes reserved for a hero.

“Young man, well done…”

“A true hero, brave and wise…”

“An example of righteousness and courage…”

“A hero emerges from the youth…”

All sorts of excessive flattery followed, and even if Tang Feng had thick skin, it was a bit too much for him to handle.

In the crowd, Li Tingting once again grabbed her brother’s ear, “Look at Tang Feng, then look at yourself. Why don’t you learn from him?”

Li Wenxuan had a gloomy expression, “Fine, I’ll go find those people who want to jump off buildings tomorrow. Shall I also perform a heroic act then?”

“Pfft, you? If someone doesn’t end up having to save you, I’d be grateful, let alone you saving someone else,” Li Tingting expressed disdain for her brother.

“Are you still my sister or what?” Li Wenxuan felt too defeated to lift his head.

As soon as Tang Feng emerged, Qin Yanan quickly rushed up to him, “Tang Feng, are you okay?”

“Ouch…”

Seeing her worried expression, Tang Feng immediately clutched his stomach and let out a pained cry.

Qin Yanan was startled, “What’s wrong? Are you feeling ill? Should we go to the hospital?”

Tang Feng couldn’t help but laugh, “I’m just teasing you, what could be wrong with me?”

Realizing she’d been tricked, Qin Yanan was flustered and annoyed. She kicked him in the shin, “How can you be like this? Don’t you know I was worried about you?”

Tang Feng looked down into her eyes, “Were you really worried about me? How worried?”

Qin Yanan hastily averted her gaze, “Who’s worried about you? I… I was afraid you’d fall to your death and I’d have to take responsibility.”

“Don’t worry, if I’m going to die, I’d die after you.”

“Why?”

“Because I can’t bear to make you sad over me.”

Tang Feng’s words were incredibly cheesy, but Qin Yanan gazed at him foolishly, as if moved by what he said.

A beat skipped in his heart; he had only made a joke, but could it have accidentally become awkward?

Luckily, Qin Yanan quickly regained her composure, scolded him with a “You’re sick,” and then changed the subject.

Tang Feng was certain that for a moment just then, she had been genuinely affected.

But for some reason, she had restrained herself in the end.

This woman, she sure had a story!

…

Zhonghai City Public Service Hall.

“Boss, Li Yang said he got directions from a master. The fraud nest is located at the border of Guixi Province and South Yue Province, in a county town.”

An officer quickly entered the boss’s office and reported in a low voice.

The “Li Yang” he mentioned was the young man who had just been brought in after his suicide attempt.

Inside the office, He Donghai set down his pen and slowly raised his head, “What kind of joke is this? If that so-called master’s words are reliable, what would we need the Public Service Hall for?”

The officer looked troubled, “But he’s very certain about it. Even threatened that if we don’t help him recover the money, he’ll commit suicide again once he’s out.”

“Outrageous! What does he take us for? A domestic nanny who does whatever he says?”

He Donghai was known for his explosive temper and immediately flew into a rage upon hearing that someone dared threaten the Public Service Hall.

“I’ll go and try to calm him down,” said the officer with a bitter smile, about to leave the office.

“Hold on,” called out He Donghai suddenly, “did he give a specific address for this master he keeps talking about?”

The officer turned around and nodded, “The location is very precise, he said it’s fifteen kilometers southeast of a county town called Anbang County.”

After hearing this, He Donghai’s brows furrowed tightly, “Who exactly is this master he speaks of?”

“He absolutely refuses to say. He also mentioned that the master specifically instructed him not to reveal any information about him,” the officer replied helplessly.

He Donghai’s fingers tapped on the desk. After a long time, he finally spoke again, “You contact the local officers, tell them to send someone to check it out.”

The officer froze, “Are we really going to believe what that master said?”

He Donghai’s face was stern, “If he had given us a broad area, we could have treated it as a joke. But since he gave a specific location, it wouldn’t hurt to investigate.”

The officer found it reasonable and went to contact the local Public Affairs Hall.

After he left, He Donghai thought it over and found it somewhat amusing.

Who would have expected that one day he would believe in such superstitious nonsense? He must have been out of his mind.

But by now, his subordinates probably had already made contact with the local Public Affairs Hall, and it was too late to change his mind.

He sighed, fearing he was about to become the butt of the joke among his colleagues.

However, as he worked until past ten that night, getting ready to go home,

the officer responsible for contacting Anbang County burst in.

“Boss, we’ve just received news from Anbang County. They went to check the address we provided and found a fraud nest. Fifteen suspects were arrested on the spot…”

“Clatter!”

He Donghai’s briefcase fell to the floor, and he was completely stunned, “They really found a fraud nest? Are you sure about the news?”

The officer nodded repeatedly, “Their chief personally called to tell us, even thanked us.”

He Donghai’s mind couldn’t catch up for a moment, “So, you’re saying, Li Yang’s master was actually right?”

The words felt ludicrous as they came out of his mouth.

They were always against feudal superstitions.

But now, this had happened.

That made no sense at all.

The fraud nest they had been searching for so long and couldn’t find had been effortlessly uncovered with just a tip from that “master”.

While he was shocked, he also felt a headache coming on.

What would he write in the report when his superiors asked how they got the lead on this case?

He couldn’t possibly write “with guidance from a master”, could he?

What was he supposed to make of this?
