Chapter 52: Intellectual Battle with Ono

  Lin Feng heard Yang Huai say it was nothing, and just put down a big stone in his heart. Before he could secretly congratulate himself, Xiao Ye suddenly shouted out this sentence, and his heart also jumped in anxiety. He suppressed the unease in his heart, looked at Xiao Ye calmly on the surface, and said: "Xiao Ye, you want to add crime to me? You have to bring out evidence, otherwise, this lawsuit will be taken to Ito's place, and Lin Mouren will also seek justice."

  Hayama knew that Ito had been unwilling to have a falling out with the Hayama family, so at this critical juncture, he could only bring up Ito in an attempt to make Ono think twice.

  After hearing Lin Feng's words, Xiao Yan fell silent for a moment before asking again, "Why did you appear here? The culprit who ambushed the Imperial Army patrol team disappeared here, and yet you appeared here. How can it be such a coincidence?"

  Rin Feng laughed "haha" and said with a sarcastic tone: "What, can't catch the culprit, Ono-kun? Are you going to frame me for this?"

  "If you don't make it clear, the suspicion will be even greater. Even if I take you back, Captain Ito won't blame me." Ono stepped forward, not relaxing at all.

  Lin Feng looked at Ono, his eyes gleaming with intensity, and said in an even more majestic tone: "I'm staying overnight at my own woman's home, do you want to control this too, Ono?"

  Lin Feng's words shocked Xiao Ye into temporary speechlessness, and even Yang Huai was confused, wondering when Lin Feng had acquired another woman.

  "Your nonsense has gone too far!" Xiao Ye scolded in a fit of rage after a moment of astonishment, "Yang Huaijun had already told me that your wife is back home, there's no such woman here as you claimed, where did this so-called 'woman's family' come from? I'm going to take you back for interrogation!"

  Ono raised his hand and waved it, and several Japanese soldiers approached Lin Feng with their guns at the ready.

  Lin Feng suddenly became furious and shouted: "Xiao Ye, don't be too arrogant! This is my woman's home, Yang Huai knows it best."

  "Huh? What's clear?" Yang Huai was left bewildered by Lin Feng's words.

  "Yes, you know best." Lin Feng smiled and looked at Yang Huai.

  "What's going on? Yang Huaijun, speak up!" Xiao Ye glared at Yang Huai with anger in his eyes.

  Yang Huai was very afraid of Xiao Ye, his voice trembling as he explained: "I, Xiao Ye, I really didn't know!"

  Yang Huai explained to Xiao Ye and then turned around to make a bow to Lin Feng: "Brother Lin, you must be careful with your words, how can this matter be related to me?!"

  Lin Feng looked at Yang Huai with a mixture of emotions, thinking that before the Japanese army arrived, Yang Huai was also an official's son and a big shot in Xiping County. He didn't expect that after following the Japanese for just a few days, he would become so servile and obsequious.

  "Of course it has something to do with you, otherwise I wouldn't have known that Feng Jie lives here and I wouldn't have had this good fortune!" Lin Feng said.

  "Phoenix Sister!" Yang Hua suddenly realized.

  Yang Huai knew that Feng Jie's home was on Guo Zhong Road, but he wasn't clear about the detailed address. Now, after Lin Feng reminded him, he immediately understood - it turned out to be this place.

  "You really hooked up?" Yang Hua didn't disbelieve Lin Feng's ability to hook up with girls, but he hadn't expected that just because of that one time at Chunfeng Building, Lin Feng would actually find someone. "Alright, you're indeed Brother Lin, you've really done it!"

  Yang Huai finished speaking, gave Lin Feng a thumbs up, stretched out his long neck like a chicken's neck, and his beady eyes peeked over Lin Feng to look inside.

  "What are you doing?" Lin Feng suddenly shouted at Yang Huai, thinking to himself: Could it be that you, Yang Huai, think you have the backing of the Japanese army and even dare to covet my woman?

  "No, no, haha." Yang Hai awkwardly smiled and hastily waved his hand at Lin Feng.

  Lin Feng let out a cold hum.

  The two people talked as if no one was around, seemingly forgetting about Shō and the Japanese troops he brought.

  Xiao Ye was ignored and got angry, staring straight ahead, and roared at Yang Huai: "What the hell is going on here?"

  "Oh, oh......" Yang Huai only then remembered that there was still a master present, and hastily turned around to face Xiao Ye, nodding and bowing to report: "Reporting to Lord Xiao Ye, this is indeed the home of Lin Feng's woman."

  "What's going on?" Xiao Ye was clearly still unwilling to believe. "You're speaking with a guilty conscience, deceiving the Imperial Army until they're dead!"

  "No, no!" Yang Hai hastily nodded and bowed repeatedly, "There is indeed a woman of Lin Feng living here, not his wife, but his mistress."

  "Are you close?" Ono looked puzzled for a moment, unsure of what "xiāng hǎo" meant in Chinese.

  "That's right, it means being intimate, Westerners call this a lover." Yang Hua explained again.

  "Lover, oh yeah!" Xiao Ye heard this and his eyes immediately emitted a green light. He took two steps forward, pushed Yang Huai to the side with one hand, and strode towards home.

  Lin Feng saw Xiaoye walking inside and seemed very calm. Anyway, there was no one inside, so let him go in.

  "Hey, hey, hey, Onota-kun, Onota-kun, we have a mission, this..." Yang Huai hastily caught up two steps and grabbed Onota, "The mission can't be delayed!"

  Yang Huai was frightened, he didn't know there was no one inside.

  Lin Feng's temper was well-known, if Xiao Ye dared to touch his woman, he would dare to chop off Xiao Ye on the spot. Don't look at him being held at gunpoint by so many Japanese soldiers now, but if he really got angry, he wouldn't care about the consequences at all.

  Xiao Ye suddenly remembered that catching the escaped prisoner was more urgent, and with a reluctant glance inside, he reluctantly turned around to leave. However, after taking only two steps, he suddenly thought of something, and his sinister eyes fixed on Lin Feng again: "Wait, my soldiers just reported to me that there's no one inside. Lin San, can you tell me what's going on?"

  "Yes, there is no one else inside, because I am the only one sleeping here tonight." Lin Feng said calmly.

  "Hachiga" Ono was extremely indignant, "You are deceiving the Imperial Army!"

  "How did I cheat you?" Lin Feng raised an eyebrow and immediately countered.

  "There's no one inside, what are you doing here?" Xiao Ye asked.

  "Who says I'm a woman and can't sleep here?" Lin Feng retorted.

  “……”

  Ono was choked by Lin Feng's words and couldn't speak for a moment, his eyes rolled around in circles, still feeling that something wasn't right, so he asked again: "Where did your woman go?"

  "I don't know, I'm also looking for her. She's been missing since you guys arrived in the city." Lin Feng said half-jokingly.

  "Now that your woman is gone, what are you doing here?" Xiao Ye became even more suspicious.

  "Why did I come? Because I miss her, I couldn't see her, every day I'm tortured by longing, can't I just spend one night here reminiscing?" Lin Feng angrily explained and questioned Xiao Ye.

  Hearing Lin Feng say this, Xiao Ye still had doubts, but couldn't think of anything else to say. He stared at Lin Feng for a long time before reluctantly waving his hand at the Japanese army, indicating retreat.

  Xiao Ye led the Japanese army down the alley, and Lin Feng finally let out a breath of relief, turning around to close the door...

  "Lin Sang..." Xiao Ye walked out for a short distance, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was off. He suddenly turned around and looked at Lin Feng, saying "How about we play a game?"

  "Your mom's Xiao Ye, not finished yet? Playing games with your mom? Lin Feng didn't even need to think about it and knew that this so-called gaming thing was definitely not a good idea. He immediately opened his mouth to refuse: "Not interested, I'm very sleepy, just want to go back and sleep."

  "No, no, no..." Ono said, taking two steps back, "Lin-san, you have to play this game. You can't clear your suspicion without playing it. You don't want to be suspected by us forever, do you?"

  "You can suspect whatever you want, as long as you have evidence. If not, then don't bother me again, I'm going back to sleep." Lin Feng shouted angrily.

  "No, Rin-san, you can't have this!" Xiao Ye said, and with another wave of his hand, the two Japanese soldiers rushed over, guns at the ready.

  "What are you going to do!" Lin Feng roared in anger.

  The two Japanese soldiers didn't care what Lin Feng shouted, they came up and twisted his arm, pulling him out.

  Lin Feng was taken away under the threat of the bayonet in front of everyone's house, and he didn't dare to resist too fiercely.

  This is a yard that is slightly larger than an ordinary residential house. Of course, it is still a residential house, but it is just slightly larger than other residential houses.

  Outside, fully armed Japanese soldiers were guarding, inside many torches were lit, illuminating the courtyard as bright as daylight, more than a dozen civilians were forced here by the Japanese military.

  Lam Fung was forced by the Japanese army with bayonets to stand beside Ono, looking at everything in front of him.

  In the middle of the courtyard, there was a elm tree as thick as one person could hug. Next to the elm tree, three large stones were used to support a pot, with fire burning underneath, and half a pot of water had been added inside.

  Those dozen or so ordinary people did not know what the Japanese army was forcing them to do here, staring at the Japanese with terrified eyes.

  Lin Feng didn't know what the Japanese army was doing either, and looked at Yang Huai with a puzzled expression who was standing on the other side of Xiao Ye.

  Yang Huai looked at everything in front of him, and his eyes also showed a puzzled expression.

  It seems Yang Huai also doesn't know what kind of trickery the Japanese army is up to, Lin Feng turns back with disappointment.

  "Lin Sang, the game has begun, hahaha……" Xiao Ye suddenly became very excited. "Hey, I'll explain the rules of the game first. Lin Sang, this game is played by the two of us. The person who ambushed the patrol team ran here and disappeared, which means that person is hiding here. Now, I've caught all the young men from here, and we're going to guess which one of them is the murderer."

  "I don't guess, I don't know who it is." Lin Feng immediately refused.

  "Alright, Lin San's can also not play, then my will treat all these people as suspects, all of them will die!" Xiao Ye said with sparkling eyes.
