Before Fang Xiang could finish his words, Lin Feng's expression suddenly changed drastically. His originally calm face looked as if it had been swept by a storm.

He thought to himself that he had underestimated the heroes of the world. He thought everything was under control, but he didn't expect such an accident to happen.

Time was like the sand in an hourglass, passing slowly minute by minute, and Lin Feng was like a cold sculpture, standing there blankly.

His eyes were fixed for a long time without moving, as if he was lost in endless contemplation and fear.

It wasn't until a familiar and concerned voice slowly sounded out that it was like a ray of light shining into his dark world, gradually pulling him back to reality: "What's wrong with you? What happened?"

It turned out that Hu Mingyue had arrived.

Lin Feng slowly raised his head, and his eyes couldn't help but reveal a trace of fear that was hard to conceal.

He looked around until he saw that there was nothing in front of him and nothing unusual around him. Then he breathed a sigh of relief, and his tense nerves relaxed a little.

Unexpectedly, his slightly inappropriate reaction at this moment scared Hu Mingyue.

Hu Mingyue quickly stepped forward and held his hand worriedly: "Brother, what's wrong with you? I've never seen you look like this before!"

After confirming that the door to the house was closed, Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief again and asked nervously, "Did everything go smoothly? Did no one notice anything unusual about you?"

Hu Mingyue nodded gently, her expression radiating confidence. "Don't worry, everything is under control! I was just afraid the horse wouldn't find its way, so I quietly followed it for a while. After confirming it was correct, I sneaked away."

Lin Feng nodded gently, and then, as if suddenly struck by an idea, he asked anxiously, "You didn't let Fang Xiang see it, did you?"

Hearing this name out of the blue, Hu Mingyue was immediately bewildered, as if she had heard an extremely unfamiliar and somewhat abrupt word.

However, before she could respond, Lin Feng subconsciously said, "It was the coroner who performed the autopsy. If I'm not mistaken, he has already guessed that I'm the mastermind behind the whole thing."

Hu Mingyue's heart skipped a beat, and her face turned pale instantly: "How is this possible? He..."

"It's all my fault for being too impatient and not properly treating the wound on the blind man's palm. That must have been how he figured out that the deceased wasn't Xiaolong."

There was a hint of regret and self-blame in Lin Feng's voice.

Hu Mingyue's voice trembled slightly, like a candle flickering in the cold wind. "What should we do? If he reports this, and the authorities issue a warrant for his arrest, I'm afraid Xiaolong will be arrested soon. Wouldn't all our previous efforts be wasted then?"

Lin Feng quickly reached out and pressed Hu Mingyue's shoulder, trying to comfort her: "You don't have to worry too much. He did me a favor today and let me go..."

Hu Mingyue finally breathed a sigh of relief and then asked, "What should we do next? Otherwise, you'll put the blame on me?"

As soon as Hu Mingyue finished speaking, the live broadcast room suddenly became as lively as a boiling pot.

"Fuck! I was wondering why Lin Feng's methods of committing crimes were becoming more and more mysterious and insane. Turns out Hu Mingyue was behind it."

"There are so many things to do. Even if he wants to complete them all by himself, he won't be able to do it."

"So, isn't Hu Mingyue much more powerful than Tang Tang? Looks like I'm going to have to ship them as a couple from now on."

"What's with all the CP? Is there nothing else on your mind besides the sour smell of love? Looks like I have to strongly suggest that Lin Feng do some more murder and dismemberment cases to calm you down."

"Haha—Hu Mingyue is the older sister after all, so of course she's much more mature than her younger sister. Besides, we can't look at everything so simply. In that episode, Tang Tang was just a high school student who couldn't even take care of herself, so how could she possibly help Lin Feng? She just had to stay out of trouble. But in this episode, Hu Mingyue's character is that of a big sister who's endured for 17 years, seeking revenge. How could she have survived until now if she didn't have some tricks up her sleeve?"

"See? This is the difference between an older sister and a younger sister. An older sister thinks about how to help you avoid trouble, while a younger sister thinks about how to help herself avoid trouble."

"I already want a sister."

...?6?7

While everyone was discussing, Lin Feng smiled and shook his head gently, his expression showing calmness: "Right now, things are not that serious yet. Let's take it one step at a time!"

As he spoke, Lin Feng seemed to suddenly remember something. He grabbed Hu Mingyue's hand and said seriously, "By the way, don't bother Fang Xiang. Since he's already challenged me, it means he's fully prepared. If you really attack him, I'm afraid you'll be caught by the constables lying in ambush in his yard before you succeed."

Hu Mingyue was slightly startled, and her expression gradually turned ugly. After all, she did have a thought just now, which was to send that annoying coroner to his death.

However, after hearing Lin Feng's words, she nodded gently and subconsciously wiped the cold sweat from her forehead due to nervousness: "Then... what should we do next?"

"Don't worry about this matter. Just live in the old house peacefully and leave this matter to me."

Lin Feng's tone was filled with unquestionable determination.

As he spoke, he gently patted her shoulder. "Since we're already living separately, let's try to see each other as little as possible. After all, our revenge plan is complete, and now we just have to wait until the deadline. More importantly, if there's really no other way, I'll bear all the guilt myself. All you have to do is live well. Because, even then, the final victory will belong to both of us."

Hu Mingyue was moved, her eyes slightly red, and then she nodded heavily.

Just as she was about to turn around and make lunch, someone knocked on the door of the old house again. The knock sounded particularly abrupt in the somewhat quiet atmosphere.

Before Lin Feng could open the door, he heard Vincent's anxious voice coming from outside the door: "Lin Feng, are you okay?"

Lin Feng then revealed a faint smile, opened the door, and invited Vincent in.

As he walked into the room, Vincent said apologetically, "I'm so sorry. I drank too much yesterday. I just woke up recently. I didn't expect to hear Fang Xiang and his soldiers coming to arrest you. If I had woken up earlier, I'm afraid this wouldn't have happened."

"I'm still here, okay? Nothing's wrong, don't worry!"

Lin Feng smiled casually, trying to lighten the mood, and then asked, "By the way, have you decided what to do this afternoon?"

Vincent was still confused at the moment, and he couldn't help but feel bewildered when he heard this. He asked, "Do you have any good ideas?"

"Let's also go and take a look at the White Needle Mountain where the Monba people live. Maybe we'll find something unexpected there."

As he spoke, a hint of anticipation flashed in Lin Feng's eyes.

Vincent nodded in agreement.

After a simple lunch, the two of them quickly headed towards Baizhen Mountain.

As for Hu Mingyue, she stayed at home to clean up.

She didn't come along because she had already decided to strictly follow Lin Feng's previous instructions and try to reduce her meetings with him in the future, so as not to reveal any flaws that would affect the entire plan.
