Campus Cultivation Master-Chapter 739 - 0741: The Fish Took the Bait [Part 2]

Chu Feng, hearing Black Bear’s words, also revealed a hint of a smile.

After leaving Huang Zixuan and Li Xiaoran’s apartment, Chu Feng did not head home but instead went in the opposite direction.

The south of the city was where the East River Power Plant was located, which was also the power plant that Fengjing Group was testing.

Because it used Fengjing Group’s latest technology, the chimneys no longer emitted smoke, and the air was no longer turbid and smelled pungent.

Such changes were what the residents of the south of the city liked the most.

Chu Feng turned off the car lights, parked the car in a corner, and then, with a few leaps, disappeared into the night.

Chu Feng soon found Black Bear.

"Where is the fish I caught?" Chu Feng asked.

Black Bear replied, "They are all below. Six people came in total. Rat has already installed the jammer. Once they finish setting up the bombs, Rat will activate the jammer, making their bombs useless."

Chu Feng listened to Black Bear’s words and couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh, saying, "Daring to bomb the power plant, they seem to think they’re not dying fast enough. Once they finish setting up, we’ll catch them red-handed."

The equipment was already in use. To stop Chu Feng, one had to target the power plant. If there were problems during Chu Feng’s trial operation, there would be no way to promote it and naturally, the tables would be turned.

Of course, anyone would think of this move, but it was also the hardest thing to do. To sabotage the power plant was to take a huge risk. Such a deed could be trivial or grave, but if mishandled, it could implicate the entire family.

Therefore, from an outsider’s perspective, such a foolish move was something Qi Wen would not make.

However, Chu Feng didn’t believe this. He was convinced that Qi Wen would do exactly the opposite. Although risky, it was the easiest to achieve and could deal Chu Feng the most lethal blow.

That’s why Chu Feng had been personally protecting Huang Zixuan and Li Xiaoran these past few days, leaving Black Bear to keep watch over the power plant for him.

And indeed, as expected by Chu Feng, Qi Wen had done the opposite. He really sent people, intending to monkey around with the power plant.

"Captain Chu, they have finished installing. Should we make our move?" Black Bear inquired after seeing they were done, turning to Chu Feng for guidance.

Chu Feng looked at the people below and frowned, suddenly feeling that something was very wrong.

And it was indeed very wrong, but if asked where it was wrong, Chu Feng couldn’t quite put his finger on it.

"Captain Chu, should we move in? We don’t have much time left; they might get away if we wait any longer," Black Bear asked again.

Hearing Black Bear’s words, Chu Feng finally remembered what was off.

"The timing is wrong!" Chu Feng suddenly said.

"Captain Chu, what timing is wrong?" Black Bear asked, puzzled.

Chu Feng said, "Have you noticed that after they finished installing the bombs, they are not in a hurry to retreat? Furthermore, they were very slow in installing them. This doesn’t look like they came to sabotage; rather, it seems like they’re intentionally stalling for time."

Black Bear looked at the people below, who were still not retreating, and his eyebrows furrowed. He said, "Indeed, something is amiss. Could this be a trap, waiting for us to go down proactively and then encircle us all?"

There was definitely a problem, but where precisely it was, Chu Feng really couldn’t tell.

"Captain Chu, there’s something wrong with the bomb; they might all be duds. I checked just now—their imprint in the ground. Every one of them had a very light imprint, not at all like they were carrying something heavy," Chu Feng heard Rat’s voice all of a sudden in his ear.

Upon hearing Rat’s voice, Chu Feng felt a shock in his heart.

This was indeed a trap, but not one meant to encircle him and his team, but rather...

Chu Feng thought of a possibility, and the ensuing phone call confirmed his guess.

"Boss, there was an intrusion at the laboratory, we suffered heavy losses. They have guns." The call was from Old Black Man.

"Damn it!" Chu Feng cursed and then said to Black Bear, "Hold the people down there, I’m heading back to the lab now. Don’t let them die; I need to pry the information we need out of their mouths."

Chu Feng quickly returned to his car, but just as he started driving, two concrete mixer trucks blocked the only way out of the power plant.

The mixer trucks blockaded the road, and the two drivers got down from the trucks, immediately disappearing into the night.

"Motherfucker!" Such an outcome made Chu Feng swear out loud involuntarily.

This was truly his mistake, a bit of neglecting the essentials for the sake of the minute. He had thought his laboratory was impregnable and overlooked the real core.

Of course, these things are truly unpredictable since Chu Feng has far too wide a net spread out in East River.

There were many places that could become targets for attack, which was also Chu Feng’s weakness. And Qi Wen had precisely exploited Chu Feng’s weakness.

The road being blocked, Chu Feng got down from the car, then directly leaped over the mixer truck and ran at full speed toward Fengjing International in the opposite direction.

While running, Chu Feng also dialed Wang Teng’s phone.

After explaining the situation to Wang Teng, Wang Teng quickly made a decision, dispatching his own special operations team to head to Fengjing Group immediately.

The situation was critical, and Chu Feng had to use all the authority at his disposal to mobilize all the resources he could.

...

"Has the military been notified accordingly?" Qi Wen, with his back to the window, asked his female secretary.

The female secretary nodded and said, "They have been notified, Wang Teng’s men can’t make a move."

Qi Wen nodded and asked, "What about the police?"

The female secretary replied, "The police might be hard to handle, with He Jianguo there, our people have no say at all."

Qi Wen was not surprised by this outcome and wasn’t angry either. He said, "If we have no say, then so be it. The police can’t do much anyway, and they should be quite busy right now, right?"

Pei Wending was indeed very busy at the moment. He didn’t understand what had happened that evening in East River that suddenly there were so many thieves and robbers.

In two hours’ time, he had already brought forty people back. The phone calls for police kept coming non-stop. All his available police forces, including the SWAT team, had been dispatched. But he still felt overwhelmed, and even Pei Wending suspected someone was deliberately provoking the police.

Chu Feng was still on the road when he received a call from Wang Teng.

"Brother Chu, we’ve received orders from higher-ups to support the police in catching thieves. This is a direct command, I..."

Chu Feng’s brow furrowed. "What’s going on with the police?"

Wang Teng replied, "There have been a lot of petty thieves in East River all of a sudden. The higher-ups are worried something big might happen, and have ordered us to assist the police."
