Chapter 376 Bad News
He thanked the enthusiastic Sheniu security guard beside him, and then took Chen Yan with him and walked towards the dark basement.
The two men came to Su Rongrong's door and knocked.
Not long after, I heard the door creak open slowly.
The two sides met each other, and Su Rongrong's expression changed slightly in an instant, and she subconsciously wanted to close the door.
Fortunately, Chen Yan was prepared and quickly blocked the door with her feet before Su Rongrong could fully exert her strength with her hands.
Seeing that closing the door was hopeless, Su Rongrong sighed helplessly, shook her hands, and sat down on the small bed in the basement. She asked in a stern tone, "Are you Tang Jun's running dogs?"
Before Lin Feng could even open his mouth, Chen Yan's face was filled with indignation, and she yelled, "Could you please not be so harsh?"
After saying that, the two looked at each other, and the tense atmosphere in the air eased a little at this moment.
However, Lin Feng was in no mood to get close to her. He simply pulled out his agent's credentials and said sternly, "Su Rongrong, why did you kill Tang Yaozu? Could it be that you wanted to avenge your sister?"
Su Rongrong was stunned at first, but when she heard the word "sister", her face suddenly turned ashen.
She took several deep breaths, finally calming down her excitement. She gritted her teeth and said, "If you weren't an agent, I would have beaten you so hard just for what you said. And, I don't even know the Tang Yaozu you mentioned!"
"What were you doing between 9:30 and 10:00 AM on April 11th?"
"Of course I'm at work."
Su Rongrong pulled out a paper attendance card from her pocket and waved it in front of Lin Feng. "Open your eyes and see clearly. I was already at the company at 8:30 am on April 11th."
"Then why did you go to the scene to watch the excitement after Tang Yaozu was killed?"
"On April 11, Tang Yaozu was killed..."
Su Rongrong muttered to herself as she paced slowly around the room.
Suddenly, her eyes lit up, as if she had thought of something. "Are you talking about the murder that happened near Lingxiu Temple? I work nearby during the day. I heard people talking about it at lunch. It's so exciting, who can resist going to see it?"
Lin Feng couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and quickly took out the map he had put away before.
As expected, Su Rongrong's workplace was not very far from Lingxiu Temple.
"What about the murder that happened on the banks of Xiuzhen River? Why did you appear at the scene shortly after the crime?"
As she spoke, Chen Yan's voice became slightly colder. "I checked before, and none of your other jobs are nearby. You weren't going to tell me that you happened to be on a business trip there that day, were you?"
As these words fell, the already dimly lit basement suddenly became even more oppressive, as if the air had frozen. Even the breathing of several people could be clearly heard.
However, Su Rongrong clearly didn't realize the seriousness of the situation. A faint smile remained on her face as she spoke slowly, "Oh, you mean that? I took a temporary assignment. They said if I clocked in there, I'd get $500."
"Nonsense! I've never heard of anyone issuing such a boring task in my entire life."
Before Chen Yan could finish her words, Su Rongrong sighed and took out her cell phone.
After a dazzling flurry of activity, she said with a touch of emotion, "You, who've lived in the sun since childhood, how can you possibly understand the kind of lives we lead? We're like rats in the sewers. As long as someone's willing to pay, there are plenty of people willing to do anything, no matter how disgusting or outrageous, let alone clock in at a murder scene."
As she spoke, she pulled up an app on her phone with a strange pattern.
Even though Lin Feng has experienced two lives and is knowledgeable, he has never seen this app.
Before he could even ask, Su Rongrong had already found the posting record of the task, his own response, and even the payment history.
Feeling Lin Feng's curious gaze, Su Rongrong didn't intend to hide anything and explained, "This is an app on the dark web. Every day, a large number of wealthy sponsors post all kinds of bizarre tasks on it. Of course, the rewards they offer are also quite generous."
She spread her hands helplessly and said, "Now, you should believe me, right?"
Before Lin Feng could respond, he heard hurried footsteps outside. He made a gesture to keep quiet, and then there was a bang on the door.
Lin Feng's expression changed again and again in an instant. He lowered his voice and said anxiously, "Chen Yan, when they rush in later, you take Miss Su and leave first."
Chen Yan was stunned at first and was about to ask, but then she thought of Lin Feng's powerful strength.
She nodded gently and grabbed Su Rongrong.
At this moment, accompanied by a dull thud, the iron door of the basement was kicked open with force and slammed heavily to the ground.
It happened in a flash. Lin Feng raised his toes and kicked the door hard.
There was only a whoosh of air breaking through, and the dozen or so men who had rushed in were instantly knocked to the ground by the door panel, falling to pieces.
Chen Yan was quick-witted and quick-handed. She picked up Su Rongrong and rushed out of the basement at high speed.
The black-clad men who had fallen to the ground struggled to sit up when Chen Yan stepped on their lower abdomens. Their faces instantly turned as pale as paper, and they opened their mouths, nearly spitting out a mouthful of blood.
Just when they finally recovered and wanted to get up and chase him for revenge, suddenly their eyes blurred and Lin Feng's tall figure appeared in front of them.
"you--"
Before they could finish their words, they felt a sharp pain in their heads. Their eyes rolled back and they fainted.
Then Lin Feng walked over to another pair of big men, grabbed their hair and hit them hard.
There was a loud bang, and the two previously arrogant men collapsed to the ground.
This was repeated several times, and these dozen or so big men became dizzy.
As soon as Lin Feng rushed to the gate of the community, Chen Yan came up to him, panting heavily: "That bastard Tang Jun has already escaped. What should we do next?"
"What should I do? I'll just take it one step at a time."
Soon, Lin Feng hailed a taxi on the side of the road. As soon as he got in, a news bulletin struck him like thunder: "According to XX News Agency, at 2:29 this afternoon, Comrade Tang Weiguo passed away due to illness—"
