Chapter 743: Persuading! (1/2)
“Gramps, you know full well that I’ve been hanging around in the academy every day, and Huskie can’t maintain transformation for that long.” Bai Xiaofei declared his innocence with a shrug.
“Then how did you find out all that?!” Lei Shan’s question was also what everyone in the room was curious about.
“You want to know?” Bai Xiaofei grinned with an expression that asked for a beating.
“Smelly brat, confess now if you don’t want to be struck into a pile of ashes!” Lei Shan stood up and slammed the table. He had lost patience.
However, Bai Xiaofei was fearless. He sat down, cupping his chin with his palms, and looked at Lei Shan quietly before finally stating his condition, “Let me out, or I won’t tell you! This matter cannot be handed over to anyone except me!”
Lei Shan had expected this. After staring at Bai Xiaofei for half a day, he sighed.
“Smelly boy, you should know why I don’t want to let you go. In fact, you are really the best option,” Lei Shan said helplessly as he sat down. As the principal of Starnet, he enjoyed the respect of the vast majority of people on the continent, but when serious matters happened, he discovered that he was no longer what he had been back then.
Starnet shackled his footsteps, but as an academy, there were very few things it could actually do. Just like now, Lei Shan wanted badly to handle the Blood Diamond matter, but the intelligence system he had even lost to Bai Xiaofei who had not taken one step out.
“Don’t worry, gramps, I cherish my life very much. Even an Emperor Rank magical beast couldn’t kill me. Is there anything more dangerous than that?” Bai Xiaofei never stopped smiling. For him, being idle was worse than death…
“Your gut should tell you already, this matter is different from any previous one.”
Lei Shan still hadn’t given up on dissuading Bai Xiaofei, but it was useless. Bai Xiaofei wouldn’t be Bai Xiaofei if he let it be.
“Gramps, that man turned into a pile of Blood Diamonds right before my eyes. Do you know the expression on his face when he begged for help? If I don’t investigate this, I’m afraid I won’t be able to sleep well for the rest of my life.” Bai Xiaofei grew solemn as these words came from the bottom of his heart.
There was no way to describe the feeling of watching a person die while begging for help.
After a long silence, Lei Shan took a deep breath. “I can let you go, but only after you make a detailed plan!” he conceded. Believing was his only option!
As soon as Lei Shan finished, the lonely expression on Bai Xiaofei’s face instantly vanished and his whole aura grew vibrant!
“Easy peasy!”
“I established a merchant group outside the college. Although it’s not well-known yet, its special operation method provides me with a huge intelligence network. During the past half month, they put aside all of their work to investigate and this is what they found.”
