“Miss.”

Not long after Lin Feng left, a group of people walked in from outside the school.

These people quickly formed a circle around Li Qingxi, who was at the gate.

They were Li Qingxi’s bodyguards.

“You’re too slow!”

“I’m really sorry. It was my mistake.”

Li Qingxi crossed her arms and looked at the leader of the bodyguards.

“There won’t be a next time. Keep a record of this scene and clean it up for me.”

Seeing that Li Qingxi had no intention of punishing them, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.

They straightened their backs and responded in unison, “Yes!”

Objectively speaking, after realizing that something was amiss, these bodyguards had reacted quickly.

Even Li Qingxi could not criticize this efficiency.

But it was still too slow. If Lin Feng wasn’t around today, Li Qingxi would really have been in trouble facing so many people alone.

At this thought, Li Qingxi was filled with anger. She sneered, her gaze cold and sharp.

“After some time, I have to go to the Yuwen family and demand an explanation. I will not let this matter end so simply.”

This evidence had to be preserved properly.

Regardless of whether the Yuwen family had intervened and gotten involved in today’s matter, Li Qingxi would not let them off easily.

What I suffered today must be compensated by the Yuwen family.

On the other hand, the Yuwen family is at an absolute disadvantage in this matter, unless the other party really wants a full-scale war.

Otherwise, it will definitely cost them an arm and a leg this time.

The heir of a prestigious family met with a mishap on your territory, as the host, there has to be some form of gestures from them.

“I really want to see Yuwen Yunyan’s expression when she finds out about this. It will definitely be very interesting.”

At the same time, in the surveillance room, Lin Feng bumped into an unexpected person.

“Monitor?” Looking at Cheng Yunxin, who was looking attentively at the screen, Lin Feng called out tentatively.

Cheng Yunxin was delighted rather than shocked to hear Lin Feng’s voice. She quickly turned around and walked over to him.

“Ah, it’s Lin Feng. I’ve been looking for you for a long time.”

“Looking for me?”

Lin Feng didn’t show any extreme response, but kept his guard up.

“Yes, I was looking for you. Everyone has already left the school, but I realized that you and Li Qingxi were not with us when I was doing a headcount.”

Cheng Yunxin examined Lin Feng up and down with concern, then replied with a normal expression, “Then, I suddenly remembered that you seemed to have gone to the library with Li Qingxi and perhaps wasn’t notified.

“But when I went to the library, I didn’t see you both, so I came to the surveillance room to search for the two of you.”

At this point, Cheng Yunxin seemed to suddenly remember something and complained with a pout, “I went to the broadcasting room, planning to inform you guys directly, but I didn’t expect the radio equipment to be broken for some reason.”

“I see.”

Lin Feng observed her for a moment. Based on what Cheng Yunxin had expressed so far, she probably had nothing to do with the assassination.

However, this did not completely eliminate the suspicion on her.

“I didn’t expect the equipment in the broadcast room to be broken. What about the surveillance room? The equipment in the surveillance room…”

“Don’t mention it. The images here in the surveillance room are all frozen. We can’t see anything at all. It looks like the school really needs to be renovated.”

Lin Feng looked at the screen. It was exactly as Cheng Yunxin had said. Not only were the screens frozen, static would even appear from time to time.

Some of them had even turned blue or blacked directly. It was obvious that something was wrong.

“Renovate?”

“That’s right. The school suddenly discovered a large number of equipment problems during the self-inspection. Many buildings also need maintenance, so they decided to give all the teachers and students a break at the last minute and prepared to do a renovation.”

Upon hearing Cheng Yunxin’s explanation, Lin Feng suddenly found similar details in his predecessor’s memories.

“Right, such a period does seem to take place every year. Only this year, it seems to be much earlier.”

“That’s right, but looking at the current situation, I also understand why it was brought forward this year.”

“Speaking of which, do the facilities in the school break easily?”

No matter what, this was the best school in the city. The equipment used was definitely not ordinary. It should not be so lousy.

“Of course not. In the past, it was all basic maintenance and repair. It essentially ended in a day or two.

“The situation this time is a little different. Maybe it’s because the equipment has reached the end of its lifespan, or maybe it’s due to some other reasons. Anyway, the equipment is indeed problematic, so the school decided to bring it forward.”

“I see.” Lin Feng nodded in understanding.

Cheng Yunxin looked behind Lin Feng and asked curiously, “Where is Li Qingxi, aren’t you two together?”

“She should be waiting at the school gate now. It’s quite scary that the school suddenly became empty.”

“You don’t have to worry at all. If necessary, I will come forward and protect you.”

Even if it means betting my life.

It sounded like a joke, but Lin Feng could sense Cheng Yunxin’s determination.

“How reliable, class monitor.”
