the next day.

After yesterday's great battle, the Ji family's forces were almost completely wiped out.

The Ye family has completely escaped the crisis, but Ye Batian will not give up. He has begun to arrange for people to conduct a full search of the Ji family's lair, determined to find Ji Wuji.

Ye Feng had more important business to attend to, and he was heading to the Northern Frontier.

"Yiyi, continue practicing according to the method I gave you, and don't be lazy," Ye Feng reminded her.

Although Yiyi can control the Soul-Capturing Bell, her cultivation level is only that of a minor grandmaster. If she were to encounter a powerful enemy alone, she would still find it difficult to cope.

Tang Yiyi took Ye Feng's hand and said, "I know. Be careful when you go to the Northern Frontier."

"Ok!"

Ye Feng gently stroked Tang Yiyi's hair, feeling very reluctant to part with her.

At this moment, Zhang Xiuzhi walked over respectfully, "Greetings, Young Master Ye!"

She still didn't dare to look Ye Feng in the eye, like a child who had made a mistake and was terrified when seeing a teacher.

Ye Feng glanced at her and noticed that Zhang Pangpang and Tang Boyuan were also there.

"Haven't you returned to Jiangzhou yet?"

Pfft!

Zhang Xiuzhi immediately knelt down and pleaded, "Young Master Ye, Ruoxue's body has not been found yet. Please send more people."

"Not found yet?"

Ye Feng also found it strange.

In broad daylight, how could anyone escape everyone's eyes and secretly steal a corpse?

"It's no use begging me. The Imperial Guards are already searching. Let's just wait for more news," Ye Feng could only say.

"But!"

Although Zhang Xiuzhi was anxious, she knew that she couldn't rush things.

Ye Feng was already being very kind by arranging for the Imperial Guards to search for her.

"Then I'll go out first."

She and Zhang Pangpang could only walk out dejectedly.

But when he walked into the corridor, he ran into Chen Shujuan.

Chen Shujuan seemed to have been waiting for her all along. "What? You want to take advantage of Tang Ruoxue's situation to freeload at the Ye family? Get out of the Ye family now!"

In the past, Zhang Xiuzhi would have resorted to a shrewish outburst and tried to outdo Chen Shujuan.

But now, the two are worlds apart. Chen Shujuan is Ye's in-law, while she is just an outsider with no connection to the family.

"Okay, I'll leave now."

Not daring to argue, Zhang Xiuzhi could only obediently lower her head and leave with Zhang Pangpang.

Fortunately, Tang Mingjie transferred 500 yuan to her yesterday, enough for the two of them to eat for a few days. As for accommodation, they couldn't go back to the Tang family in the capital, so they had to find a place under the overpass to make do for a few days.

“Panpan, Xiaojie told me yesterday that his barbecue stall can sell more than 600 yuan a day. Once we find Ruoxue’s body, we’ll go back and open another stall,” Zhang Xiuzhi said as she walked.

"Six hundred dollars? That's a lot?"

Zhang Pangpang was overjoyed, "I heard that barbecue is quite profitable, you should be able to make at least 300 yuan."

Yes, more or less.

"Well, let's hold on for a few more days. If we really can't find my cousin's body, we'll have to go back."

"it is good!"

If they don't go back soon, they'll starve to death.

Ye Feng first booked a plane ticket, then said goodbye to Tang Yiyi.

After arriving at the airport and waiting for more than an hour, boarding began.

We arrived in northern Xinjiang around 3 or 4 p.m.

Although Northern Xinjiang cannot compare to the prosperity of the capital, it is still full of the atmosphere of a modern city. However, the ethnic groups here have relatively conservative beliefs, and most of them wear tight clothing. The streets are dominated by men.

As I walked out of the airport, I was about to hail a taxi to the Northwest Military Camp.

"stop!"

Suddenly, a Mandarin accent from another region rang out behind him.

Ye Feng turned his head and saw two police officers and a well-dressed young woman walking over quickly.

"Sir, we now suspect you of stealing a wallet inside the airport. Please cooperate with our investigation!" a tall police officer said aggressively.

"Stealing a wallet?"

Ye Feng was surprised!

"Please cooperate with the investigation!"

After the officer finished speaking, he immediately began searching the person.

He searched Ye Feng's pockets from top to bottom and found a pink wallet in his left trouser pocket.

"This is it, this is it, this is my wallet."

Upon seeing the wallet, the girl's eyes lit up with surprise, and she quickly took it.

After looking through it a few more times, she found nothing. "Where's my money? And my ID? How come they're all gone?" she stared at Ye Feng.

"You ask me, who should I ask?"

Ye Feng shrugged.

He didn't even know how the wallet ended up in his pocket.

"You must have taken it! Hand it back right now!" the girl said angrily.

"Take him back to the police station first, then we can investigate him at our own pace!"

Without saying a word, the police handcuffed Ye Feng and put him directly into the police vehicle.

Throughout the entire process, Ye Feng didn't even have a chance to explain.

Everyone says you should keep a close eye on your wallet at airports in other cities to avoid being robbed, but now he's the thief instead.

Back at the police station.

Ye Feng was taken to the interrogation room and sat down in a chair.

"Can I make a phone call first?" Not knowing how long the investigation would take, Ye Feng wanted to call Ye Xinyi and ask her to contact local officials to handle the matter.

But the police officer ignored him and casually tossed a document at him.

"Sign the documents and you can leave."

So simple?

Didn't they say they were going to investigate?

Ye Feng glanced at the document and, to his dismay, it was written in the local language.

The northern border is, after all, part of the Great Xia territory, so why use a local script?

However, trusting the police and needing to save time, Ye Feng didn't dwell on it.

"it is good!"

He picked up the document and signed it in Chinese in the lower right corner: Ye Feng!

Then, he handed it to the police officer and asked, "Can I leave now?"

"Alright, come with me." The police officer picked up the documents and waved him over.

Immediately, two other police officers took Ye Feng away without even removing his handcuffs.

while walking.

They actually led Ye Feng to the back of the police station, and soon arrived at an open space.

"Did we come to the wrong place? Why did you bring me to the shooting range?" Ye Feng had a bad feeling.

Sudden.

A clear, melodious voice rang out, "That's right, you stole a wallet, you deserve to be shot!"

What?

Didn't they say we could leave now?

Even if it's stealing, it doesn't warrant shooting at a target.

"It's you!"

Ye Feng then realized that the woman who spoke was the same girl who had just falsely accused him of stealing his wallet.

However, unlike her previous attire, the girl was now wearing a silver armor, looking heroic and valiant, carrying a Desert Eagle in her hand, with sharp eyes.

"Can you tell me who you are?" Ye Feng remained calm.

"I can let you die knowing why."

The girl hoisted the Desert Eagle onto her shoulder, her expression furious. "I am Chu Qingluan, the deputy commander of the Northwest Legion, and I am also a Han Chinese."

Deputy Commander of the Northwest Army Corps?

A high-ranking official!

That's interesting! It seems it's not as simple as just stealing a wallet.

"Then do you know who I am?" Ye Feng asked again.

"Cut the nonsense!"

Chu Qingluan waved her hand, "Men, drag him over and kill him."

"Yes!"

Before Ye Feng could react, two police officers forcibly dragged him away.
