Chapter 649: Chapter 649: Catching the Thief
Ling Feng laughed, "I shouldn’t be, it’s already a stroke of luck that my brain isn’t fried!"
At that, Mo Lan’s lips curled into a slight smile.
Even though the situation was sowhat perilous, being by Ling Feng’s side, she suddenly felt that they could definitely resolve the matter. It must be a false alarm, nothing would go wrong!
The two of them reached the sixteenth floor, and saw a waiter pushing a food cart who had just arrived at the elevator entrance, facing each other.
Ling Feng glanced at him once and knew this person was a genuine staff mber, with nothing suspicious about him.
Afterward, they walked around the floor and encountered two janitorial staff mbers.
However, both were won, both over forty years old, so they couldn’t possibly be the thief in disguise.
After checking the seventeenth and eighteenth floors, Ling Feng and Mo Lan went up to the nineteenth floor.
This floor was the sa, with no suspicious staff mbers around, and just as they were about to head up to the twentieth floor, a waiter ca out of the elevator.
Ling Feng gave him a look, then retracted his gaze and walked towards the stairwell.
But after only a few steps, he suddenly stopped and turned his head, saying, "Wait a minute!"
The waiter’s stride faltered, and he turned back with a smile, "Do you need help, sir?"
Ling Feng looked at him seriously and asked indifferently, "Are you a staff mber here?"
"Yes!" The waiter said with a professional smile, nodding his head.
"Oh, what’s your na then?" Ling Feng stepped forward and stopped in front of the man.
"I..."
The waiter’s eyes flashed with panic, and then he smiled, "I’m Wang Xiaohu!"
"Then why does your badge have the na Li Li on it?" Ling Feng asked with a cold voice.
"I..."
Wang Xiaohu was stunned, looked down at his badge, then smiled, "I was in a hurry when I got to work, didn’t look closely before putting it on. Why do you ask this, sir? You don’t look like our hotel’s managent, do you?"
Ling Feng sneered, "You still want to keep acting? Don’t tell
that this hotel’s staff, n and won, share the sa changing room!"
Li Li was clearly a woman’s na, and he claid to have taken it by mistake, which was just absurd!
Sure enough, when asked this way, Wang Xiaohu hesitated, his eyes darting around as he said, "Well, actually..."
"No need to make up more stories, confess now if you don’t want
to get physical!" Ling Feng sneered.
"Whoosh!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Wang Xiaohu hurled the coffee pot he was holding right at Ling Feng!
Ling Feng was prepared, the attacker’s move appeared to him as if in slow motion, posing no threat whatsoever!
So he just slightly dodged his head to avoid it, and then seeing Wang Xiaohu trying to flee, he sneered, "The Art of Disguise is not bad, but you’re not getting away!"
After saying that, he tapped his toe on the ground, and like a streak of lightning, he vanished!
Wang Xiaohu, hearing his words, knew the situation was dire and imdiately rushed towards a guest room. Unfortunately, before he could reach the door, he felt darkness before his eyes, then crashed heavily into soone’s body!
Before he could react, he felt a tightness around his throat, followed by his body being lifted into the air!
Ling Feng’s eyes were filled with rage as he spoke in a deep voice, "Kid, you have three seconds to tell
where the stolen docunts are."
"I..."
Wang Xiaohu’s throat was constricted, his breathing labored, and his face quickly turned red.
"Not talking, huh?"
Ling Feng sneered, setting him down on the ground, "Then don’t bla
for not being polite!"
"Don’t!"
Wang Xiaohu gasped for air, waving his hand, "I’ll talk, I’ll talk!"
Ling Feng was still very tense, fearing that he would tell him that the data had already been sent out!
Finally, Wang Xiaohu caught his breath and looked up at him fearfully, "The stuff is in the changing room."
"Let’s go!"
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng breathed a sigh of relief, then grabbed Wang Xiaohu by the neck and strode forward.
Wang Xiaohu’s face was ghastly pale, knowing that he was dood. His body trembled slightly, and he didn’t dare to struggle or move rashly, obediently following him to the elevator.
The floor attendants were all dumbfounded, standing there, gaping, uncertain of what to do.
Seeing this, Ling Feng said, "Don’t be nervous. This kid is not one of your hotel staff, he’s a thief. I’m military personnel, specifically here to catch him!"
"Then, should I help call the police?" the attendant asked.
"No need, thank you!"
Ling Feng smiled, thinking to himself that this little girl was also fooled, he already told her he was military personnel, why call the police?
He took Wang Xiaohu into the elevator and headed to the staff changing room located on the third floor. At that mont, Ling Feng asked, "Kid, what’s your story? How did you manage the Art of Disguise?"
"This isn’t the Art of Disguise, this is my real face..." Wang Xiaohu murmured lowly.
Ling Feng was startled, then realized, "So, you were in disguise when you entered the room?"
"Yes, yes!"
"You’re not stupid!"
Ling Feng sneered, then continued to ask, "Tell , who sent you, and how were you going to hand over the data?"
"I..."
Wang Xiaohu hesitated, falling silent for a mont before speaking again.
Seeing this, Ling Feng said, "What, you still refuse to speak at this point? Do you really want to test my thods, huh?"
"Even if I told you, you wouldn’t believe . I don’t have a clear idea of who the other party is!" Wang Xiaohu said.
"Oh?"
Ling Feng narrowed his eyes, noticing Mo Lan’s gaze, and then nodded, "That might be possible. Let’s have a good talk later. If you cooperate, maybe I can let you go!"
"Cooperate, I will definitely cooperate!"
Wang Xiaohu was overjoyed, nodding hurriedly.
Upon reaching the third floor, they ca to the door of the changing room. Since it was not shift-change ti, the door was closed.
But this was no obstacle for Wang Xiaohu. He bent down to tinker with the door lock, and the door was opened.
Seeing his adept movents, Ling Feng chuckled inwardly: "It seems this kid is a habitual offender!"
After entering, Wang Xiaohu found a wardrobe, opened it, and handed a USB drive to Ling Feng: "This is it..."
Ling Feng took it in hand, exchanged glances with Mo Lan, and both simultaneously breathed a sigh of relief.
Mo Lan imdiately used the walkie-talkie to inform her subordinates to report to Wang Laogen, so that everyone else could stop worrying.
At this mont, Ling Feng patted Wang Xiaohu on the shoulder: "Not bad, kid, sit down and tell
how you did it!"
What he was most curious about was, how the kid knew the room was empty.
Everyone had teleported away without even going out the door!
Yet this guy managed to enter the room and copy the data during that short half-hour window, which was quite unusual.
When questioned by Ling Feng, Wang Xiaohu started to flicker his eyes, looking down and muttering, "I can’t answer you about that!"
"Not talking, huh? Then I guess I’ll have to use so thods!"
Ling Feng chuckled, reaching out to prepare to te out punishnt.
Unexpectedly, Wang Xiaohu then raised his head: "Don’t, don’t do it, I can’t answer, but you can contact my master!"
