Chapter 725 - 723: Taking the Blame
However, it was a narrow escape, and strangely, the car drove straight ahead without turning back. As for the license plate number, it was tampered with, showing nothing.
"Damn it!"
Zhang Yufei looked helplessly at the culprit escaping right under her nose, but when she calmed down, she noticed a piece of clothing on the ground.
Hastily, Zhang Yufei picked up the clothing, and upon examining it, she found it covered with writing.
"I was the one who did the campus network thing, if you have the guts, come and catch me." There was no signature, but every word on it was clearing Xu Fei and his friends of guilt.
Currently, there was no evidence proving that Xu Fei and his group were responsible, and they were adamant about being forced into being accomplices, arguing there was no personal or property harm, hence not a crime.
The words on this clothing also proved Xu Fei’s innocence, as he was still stuck in the police station.
Helplessly, the trio returned to the police station, where Director Zhao Bing called, ordering the release.
This was the result of Old Master Xu’s request to higher authorities.
First of all, Xu Fei did not constitute a crime, and secondly, he was framed, with no basis to continue detaining him.
"Hehe, I said we were forced. Yet you insisted on holding me, what’s the deal?" Xu Fei, upon being released, became a bit reckless.
"Humph, don’t think I don’t know your conspiracy, I’ll find out who’s behind this. Don’t come crying for mercy at that time."
Zhang Yufei, having a rather strong personality, couldn’t stand confronting such arrogant, self-righteous individuals.
Although she was saying this, she had no solid ground herself. This case was done by hackers, and much on the internet doesn’t require authentication of true identity.
Entering the real world, people do not recognize each other, so when surfing the internet, people are often reminded to be aware of internet security.
"Oh? Don’t slander me. I was really forced, you know. They are experts, and I didn’t want to die so I did as they said with my girlfriend." Xu Fei didn’t want to explain further and said, "Let’s go, bye-bye."
As Xu Fei took Fang Xiaomin out of the police station, a Mercedes car approached from not far away. It was Gong, Xu Kan’s driver, sticking his head out.
"Young Master, over here. The boss sent me to pick you up." Gong waved and shouted.
"Got it."
Xu Fei smiled as things had largely been resolved; what’s left was to see how Chu Jingyun would handle Chen Tianlong, otherwise, he was powerless.
Finally, the turmoil calmed, and the campus network access returned to normal. Technicians in the South Sea No.1 Middle School’s broadcasting center worked overnight to reset all the passwords and added security keys.
Though managing the project henceforth might be cumbersome, putting extra effort is better than seeing such scenarios.
Fortunately, this incident had a narrow escape, but he knew most credit belonged to Chen Tianlong. As for whom he enlisted for help, it remained confidential for now.
That was a condition he’d agreed with Liu Ting.
Liu Ting didn’t want fame and didn’t wish to be targeted by those hidden hackers, so she opted to be a behind-the-scenes technical supporter, avoiding trouble.
After everything concluded, it was already 7 PM. Chen Tianlong initially wanted to invite Liu Ting out for a meal but suddenly remembered Lin Wushuang still hiding at home.
Even though the scandalous photo incident had been explained and everything that needed deletion was deleted, the young lady still bore some trauma.
It would be the same for anyone; having scandalous photos circulated on the school website, viewed by so many, is very embarrassing, especially for the conservative Lin Wushuang.
Seeing female classmates was bearable, but facing male classmates was humiliating.
So Lin Wushuang decided to take a month off from school. However, Shen Yan disagreed. Lin Wushuang was an outstanding student in their class, and without such a key player, Class Two would rank at the bottom.
The crux is, if Lin Wushuang doesn’t attend, then Lu Xiaoyu also wouldn’t, and as the young lady’s bodyguard, Chen Tianlong wouldn’t need to attend either.
His job was to protect the employer, and if the employer stayed home, there’s no point going to school.
Chen Tianlong shook his head, took a deep breath, and got into the car. Today was the loneliest day in the car. Without Lin Wushuang and Lu Xiaoyu, Chen Tianlong felt something missing.
The Audi slowly drove out of the school gate and headed towards the Lin Family mansion. Meanwhile, at the other side of the school gate, a large black Mercedes also started moving, inside sat three people, among whom one couldn’t really be called a human, strictly speaking, he was a living dead — Death God No.1.
This time, Chu Jingyun didn’t plan to take action himself, but to conduct some experiments using Death God No.1. In his view, Chen Tianlong with a mere Yellow Dao Four-star strength was insignificant.
Even though Xu Kan described Chen Tianlong as formidable with over-level battles, exhausting opponents’ strength, and achieving victory, such feats were useless against Death God No.1.
Because it’s soaked in a special potion that not only enhances defense but also significantly alters muscle structure, essentially a mutation. But this mutation is to stimulate all potential energy of the muscles, achieving Absolute Defense.
Absolute Defense means any damage of the same level or below is ineffective, even if performing more powerful techniques by surpassing levels; if your level isn’t sufficient, it’s ineffective against Absolute Defense.
So, upon hearing Xu Fei say Chen Tianlong was only Yellow Dao Four-star, Chu Jingyun was delighted.
No matter how formidable Chen Tianlong was claimed to be, how he over-leveled his opposition; if your level is fixed, don’t think of winning against his Death God No.1.
A few minutes later, the black Mercedes quickly overtook Chen Tianlong’s Audi on a relatively secluded street, suddenly blocking its path.
Seeing the car ahead, Chen Tianlong frowned — this scenario was clearly trouble, relating to Lin Wushuang’s scandal.
And related to this was undoubtedly Xu Fei.
As he was pondering, a person appeared ahead, not very good-looking, clearly a young master from some family. Chen Tianlong smirked, realizing Xu Fei had sent reinforcements again.
With no choice, Chen Tianlong dealt with it as it came, ready to confront demons or ghosts. He promptly got out of the car, both standing motionlessly.
"You are Chen Tianlong?" Chu Jingyun and Chen Tianlong stared at each other for a few seconds before speaking.
