Gao Feng wasn't lying.
Zuo Yi was a hundred percent sure of this.
This wasn't just because of his trust in Gao Feng. The powerful spiritual intuition of a Saint Knight couldn't be deceived.
Since Gao Feng was innocent, the culprit who framed him must pay the price!
Fang Xiaohui took down Boss Zhang's phone number and said, "I'll get back to you as soon as possible."
Although he didn't know what Zuo Yi and Gao Feng had talked about, he could vaguely guess that this person might be related to the Bai family.
Fang Xiaohui was extremely wary of the Bai family and didn't dare to provoke them. But since Zuo Yi had spoken, he didn't hesitate at all.
If he didn't even have this much courage, then he didn't deserve to be in his current position.
Zuo Yi nodded. "Thank you."
He drove Fang Xiaohui back to the city and dropped him off at the place Fang Xiaohui had specified. Then, he found a hotel to check in.
Of course, Zuo Yi didn't forget to call Zhao Lili to tell her that he was safe and sound, so that she could relax.
He could tell that Zhao Lili still had deep feelings for Gao Feng.
Zuo Yi wasn't worried about Gao Feng's safety in the prison because he had left a sacred imprint on Gao Feng when they met earlier.
With the protection of this sacred imprint, Gao Feng wasn't afraid of being harmed by anyone. Moreover, if his life was in danger, Zuo Yi would be the first to know.
The next morning, Zuo Yi received a call from Fang Xiaohui.
Half an hour later, the two met again in the hotel lobby.
Fang Xiaohui handed Zuo Yi a stack of printed papers. "Chief Zuo, this is the information you wanted."
Fang Xiaohui was very efficient. In just one night, he had found out Boss Zhang's background.
Boss Zhang's name was Zhang Longqing. He was forty years old and a native of Spring City. He was born in a very ordinary family.
He didn't have much talent and didn't even go to college. He used to be a lackey in the underworld.
But he had a very beautiful sister.
It was precisely because of this younger sister who had graduated from the art school that Zhang Longqing was able to rely on a descendant of the Bai Family. His life immediately underwent earth-shattering changes, and he was now the boss of three companies.
On the surface, Zhang Longqing's net worth was in the hundreds of millions. But in reality, he was just a white glove for the Bai family's descendant. He usually ate the scraps that fell between the fingers of others.
His younger sister's luck was pretty good. Although she didn't have an official status, she gave birth to a son for that Bai family disciple. He was raised in the outer residence and was rather favored, allowing him to bask in his glory.
With this backing, Zhang Longqing could eat, drink, and play. His days were very comfortable.
One of Zhang Longqing's hobbies was to raise orchids. However, he didn't just raise orchids for his own enjoyment. The precious orchids that he usually collected were all offered to the elder of the Bai Family.
Reading up to this point, Zuo Yi understood everything.
Zhang Longqing fancied Gao Feng's orchid, but he was reluctant to buy it at a high price. Therefore, he relied on the Bai Family's power to send Gao Feng to the prison.
That strange orchid must have fallen into his hands by now.
Speaking of which, Zhang Longqing wasn't even a relative of the Bai Family. The person he relied on wasn't a direct descendant of the Bai Family. However, he was able to order the officials to arrest people.
This showed how powerful the Bai Family's power was in Spring City!
"Zhang Longqing just called me."
Fang Xiaohui said, "He knows that I'm investigating him. He also knows that I went to the prison last night. He asked me to meet him at the Spring Dawn Teahouse."
His expression was a little helpless.
How arrogant!
Zuo Yi asked, "What time?"
Fang Xiaohui replied, "Nine o 'clock."
Zuo Yi looked at the time and said, "Let's go together."
He was looking for Zhang Longqing. Now that the other party took the initiative to come to his door, it couldn't be better.
The two left the hotel together. Just as they got in the car in the parking lot, Fang Xiaohui's cell phone suddenly rang.
Fang Xiaohui immediately picked up the phone.
Soon his face turned pale. Finally, he put down the phone silently.
Zuo Yi, who was sitting next to him, clearly heard the roar coming from the phone. He asked in a deep voice, "Chang Lin?"
Fang Xiaohui nodded.
Just now on the phone, Chang Lin, the chief officer of the Anyue Superpower Management Bureau, scolded him for causing trouble on his own initiative. He also ordered him to return to the Superpower Management Bureau immediately for questioning.
Chang Lin was Fang Xiaohui's immediate superior. One word from him could decide his fate.
Zuo Yi said apologetically, "I'm sorry to have involved you."
Zuo Yi didn't expect that Chang Lin was so afraid of the Bai Family. The position of the head of the Anyue Superpower Management Bureau was also very suspicious.
"It's okay."
Fang Xiaohui smiled. "I'll go back to my hometown. I've stayed here enough."
He was not from Anyue. He followed Chang Lin to Spring City to work.
"I'll give you an explanation for this."
Zuo Yi said without hesitation, "You've done enough. I'll go to the Spring Dawn Teahouse myself."
With his current status, it was really easy for him to arrange a suitable new position for Fang Xiaohui.
Fang Xiaohui said, "I didn't tell Zhang Longqing your identity …"
Zuo Yi heard the hidden meaning in Fang Xiaohui's words.
Fang Xiaohui had a reason.
If he told Zhang Longqing Zuo Yi's identity, the latter would definitely ask the Bai Family for help.
And the Bai Family's reaction would most likely not be to throw Zhang Longqing out in exchange for Zuo Yi's forgiveness. Instead, they would fight against Zuo Yi!
It sounded incredible. After all, Zuo Yi was an Alpha-level master.
However, the Bai Family guarded their territory very tightly and did not allow any forces to enter. The Anyue Superpower Alliance was basically under their control, and the Superpower Management Bureau had always been suppressed.
They were like a porcupine, erecting all the spikes on their body to fight against external threats.
Zuo Yi was a typical threat!
The Bai Family would doubt Zuo Yi's motives, suspect that Zuo Yi was using Zuo Yi as a pretext to make a fuss, and even suspect that Zuo Yi came with a secret mission.
His purpose was to attack the Bai Family.
This was not the delusion of the Bai Family being persecuted. In fact, the higher-ups of Da Xia had wanted to change the Bai Family's dominance in Anyue more than once, and there had been several major disturbances because of this.
The Bai Family had survived, and now they must be extremely sensitive.
Although they did not have an Alpha-level master, their heritage of guarding Anyue for hundreds of years was not trivial. They had enough strength and confidence to fight against an Alpha-level master.
Once Zuo Yi and the Bai Family had a conflict, Gao Feng, who was imprisoned in the prison, would be in danger.
"Chief Zuo …"
Fang Xiaohui said, "I want to go with you to see Zhang Longqing. As long as we can persuade him, this matter can be solved."
Zuo Yi could not help but ask, "What about Chang Lin?"
Chang Lin obviously did not know that Fang Xiaohui was running around for his own sake. Otherwise, he would not have been so rude.
"Officer Chang has his own difficulties."
Fang Xiaohui smiled and said, "I understand, but I don't think I've done anything wrong."
There was a look of determination in his eyes. Obviously, he had made up his mind to stand on Zuo Yi's side!
