Chapter 97 Safety Net



Lu Hong was, relatively speaking, one of the few people who knew Xiang Beifei well.

Although in his eyes, Xiang Beifei was also a mysterious youth, he didn't know what system Xiang Beifei had awakened, but he was aware that the boy's abilities were extraordinary.

No matter what Xiang Beifei did, he would not be too surprised.

Lu Hong immediately rushed to the law enforcement brigade, sat in the interrogation room with a furrowed brow, surveyed Yu Lei, and then sent the other law enforcement officers away.

He was almost certain that Beifei was behind this.

The reason was nothing else but the burn scars on Yu Lei's body, which were caused by Rapid Flame, and Lu Hong, being a possessor of Rapid Flame, knew this all too well.

"Beifei acted too rashly, a popular journalist comes forth to confess right after publishing such an article, admitting that what he wrote about the top scholar was false, isn't he afraid that others would suspect his connection with this scholar?"

Lu Hong pondered.

Yu Lei was admitting all his actions in great detail and even handed over the confession he wrote to Lu Hong.

He even prepared a confession in writing?

Lu Hong suddenly paused, thought of something, and chuckled bitterly, "Does this kid think I would come up with a reason for Yu Lei's confession?"

Lu Hong helplessly laughed.

He had just been thinking about how to help Beifei cover up the past.

Beifei had some special abilities, and before he matured, but could help cover up, he would do as much as possible, keeping a low profile, which would be better for Beifei's future.

At that moment, Lu Hong's phone vibrated, and a message popped up.

He glanced at it and saw that it was from Xiang Beifei, with a simple content: "Please, thank you, Uncle Lu."

You still know how to thank me?

Lu Hong rubbed his forehead, feeling quite a headache.

But this rascal, can he even guess my thoughts?

Lu Hong picked up his phone and replied irritably, "Remember to give a heads up next time!"

"Okay."

This cunning guy!

Unfortunately, now that he was in prison, it seemed impossible to recover those two rewards; he had no choice but to accept his bad luck.

"At the end of the day, I have to thank Beifei. It was because of his incident that Captain Lu was able to catch this guy!"

Yang Hua felt a rare sense of gratitude towards Beifei.

If it weren't for Yu Lei reporting on Beifei, which coincidentally led Lu Hong, who knew Beifei, to investigate Yu Lei and finally capture him, he might not have had the chance to obtain justice!

I need to be careful next time and not just accept interviews casually!

——

Beifei had already completed his college application, choosing Liangzhou University.

With his scores, Liangzhou University would surely be upgraded, then give him a chance for an entrance assessment. The exact date was not yet set, but it was going to be in the coming days, so he was still diligently practicing Rapid Flame.

He had gradually noticed the issues with Rapid Flame and had successfully made some improvements.

"I should be able to give feedback tomorrow."

Beifei summarized the characteristics of the Rapid Flame martial art, planning to seek feedback from Lu Hong in the next few days to help Lu Hong complete the mandatory task issued by the Investigation System, aiming to obtain an advancement pill for him.

It wasn't that Beifei coveted the advancement pill; having Lu Hong reach the mid-level of Meridian Opening was also beneficial for Beifei.

Lu Hong was very generous and genuinely kind to Beifei, much like Principal Li Nanxing. They both were willing to spend system values to aid him.

If Beifei needed system rewards to activate a constellation, Lu Hong would certainly not be stingy. Thus, ensuring that Lu Hong reached the mid-level of Meridian Opening, at least, secured that Beifei could obtain enough system rewards from him for activating constellations at that level.

Of course, higher-level system rewards cost more system values, and Beifei did not want Lu Hong to overspend. He would certainly try to obtain system items from others first; if all else failed, then he would turn to Lu Hong for emergency help.

As for who these "others" were, Beifei already had a target in mind.

Liangzhou wanted list!

Obtaining system rewards from these wanted criminals would not only be justifiable but also earn a bounty, killing two birds with one stone.

"Helping solve cases should also enable Uncle Lu to earn Investigation Value. It would be fair to him."

Beifei pondered and continued to throw a punch into the air.
