Chapter 36: Chapter 36 Saving Zheng Xinyi
Hearing Bai Feifeiās exclamation, Ling Feng couldnāt help but roll his eyes.
The way she said it was as if seeing him was a threat to her chastity.
"Hey, hey, how can you speak like that?" Ling Feng complained, "These four idiots were robbing the bank, and it was I who stepped in to help you subdue them. You donāt even say thanks, and then you cop this attitude? Be careful, I might file a complaint against you!"
Bai Feifei glanced at Ling Feng and said, "Alright, alright, my bad, okay? If I had known you were inside, I wouldnāt have worried so much. By the way, what are you doing?"
"Look, these two guys have been fitted with control bombs. If theyāre not disarmed within half an hour, the entire Huaxia Bank might be blown to smithereens!"
"What!" Bai Feifei shouted in surprise, "Quick, call the bomb disposal expert!"
"Itās useless!" Ling Feng said indifferently, "The kind of installation method used here is something ordinary bomb disposal experts just canāt handle! If anything goes wrong, the consequences are unimaginable."
"Then what do we do..." As she said this, Bai Feifei looked at Ling Feng and said, "Right, how confident are you?"
"If I do it, itās a hundred percent!" Ling Feng stretched and yawned, "But why should I help you disarm the bomb? Iām not part of your police system."
At that moment, Liu Tingyu came up to Ling Fengās side, holding his hand with some caution and asked, "Bad guy, who is this police officer?"
Bai Feifei looked at Liu Tingyu and then at Ling Feng, her face revealing a hint of ambiguity. Seeing Liu Tingyu as if facing a great enemy, Bai Feifei also felt an itch in her heart, she really looked like a pristine, innocent elf!
"Donāt worry, I just know your boyfriend, thatās all!" Bai Feifei patted Liu Tingyuās shoulder and said, "Donāt worry, Iām not interested in him."
Liu Tingyuās face turned red, and then she cautiously glanced at Ling Feng.
At this time, the bomb disposal expert came in, looked carefully, and his face was very grave.
"Captain Bai, the bomb binding technique is very rare. Coupled with the victim being strapped with a heartbeat sensor, I truly donāt have full confidence. In my opinion, itās best to evacuate everyone within several hundred meters. This is high-explosive material, once it goes off, the consequences are unthinkable."
A sinking feeling came over Bai Feifei, "Uncle Lei, you are the best bomb disposal expert on the Criminal Police Team. If even you canāt do it, who else could be confident?"
Uncle Lei said gravely, "We have less than twenty minutes before the bomb explodes, and we have no other choice! Iāll have to take a risk and give it a try!"
Bai Feifei looked at Ling Feng, who was whispering with Liu Tingyu in the distance, and frowned, "Uncle Lei, that man is a friend of mine, from a secret department. He says he is confident in disarming it, should we let him try?"
"Nonsense!" Uncle Lei whispered sharply, "Do you think bomb disposal is childās play? You know the dangers involved as much as anyone! Even if he is somewhat confident, he isnāt from our police system. How can we put such risk upon him?"
"Moreover, heās about the same age as you. What experience could he have with such complex bombs? Youāre just clutching at straws in desperation!"
Meanwhile, Liu Tingyuās expression was complex, "Bad guy, do you really have a way to disarm the bomb on Zheng Xinyi?"
"Itās a piece of cake for me!" Ling Feng said with a smile, "Even though the robbersā method is somewhat special, thatās only relative to domestic standards. After all, with the favorable environment at home, these bomb disposal experts rarely encounter such things!"
Liu Tingyu furrowed her brow, looking at Ling Fengās nonchalant demeanor, feeling a bit of heartache. From Ling Fengās words, she began to understand that over the years abroad, Ling Feng must have faced many hardships!
Biting her lips, Liu Tingyu looked at the utterly despairing Zheng Xinyi and said with determination, "Bad guy, if you can defuse the bomb...if youāre confident, can you save Zheng Xinyi?"
Ling Feng was surprised as he looked at Liu Tingyu. Zheng Xinyi had relentlessly slandered her, so why was she pleading on behalf of Zheng Xinyi?
"Although it might put you in danger, I donāt want Zheng Xinyi to die!" Liu Tingyu said quietly, "Even though she has bad-mouthed me and is somewhat vain, I know she is not an out-and-out bad woman. Bad guy, can you save her?"
Ling Feng sighed and gently touched Liu Tingyuās hair, saying, "Since Ting Yu has said this, naturally, I have no objections. I just hope that after this matter, Zheng Xinyi will learn to behave; otherwise, she will have truly wasted your kindness!"
"Less than ten minutes left, all unrelated personnel must evacuate!" the bomb disposal expert said with a grave tone, "Weāre running out of time. Itās a life or death attempt now!"
"Hold on!" Ling Feng stepped forward and asked Bai Feifei, "This bomb is quite complex, plus itās high explosives. The consequences of it detonating are unimaginable. How certain are you?"
Bai Feifei replied with a wry smile, "At most, fifty percent. Now we can only let Uncle Lei give it a try!"

"If itās only fifty percent, then leave it to me!" Ling Feng said calmly, "After all, weāre dealing with a matter of life and death."
Uncle Lei frowned, "Young man, bomb disposal is not childās play. Precisely because itās a matter of life and death, we canāt be reckless! I donāt know who you are, but I can tell you that no one in Yanjingās police system is more reliable than I am!"
Ling Feng glanced at the timer on the bomb, growing impatient, "I donāt have time to discuss this with you. This girl is a friend of mine, and since Iām absolutely confident in saving her, I wonāt let her be in any danger!"
Zheng Xinyi looked at Ling Feng in surprise. The figure she had once despised was now growing larger and larger in her heart.
"Get him out of here!" Unable to bear it any longer, Uncle Lei snapped, "I need quiet right now!"
"Trouble!" In a flash, Ling Fengās hand struck Uncle Lei on the neck.
"Uncle Lei!" Bai Feifei exclaimed.
Ling Feng said, "Itās okay, heās just fainted. I donāt have time to explain to you, but rest assured, I havenāt gotten married yet; Iām not planning to die!"
"Are you really sure?" Bai Feifei hesitated before asking.
Ling Feng licked his lips, "I donāt want to repeat the same thing a second time! But helping you out this time isnāt without reward. After the bomb is defused, I need you to do something for me," Ling Feng said.
Then Ling Feng squatted beside Zheng Xinyi, rubbed his hands together, and started preparing to defuse the bomb.
"What kind of person is this?" Bai Feifei muttered under his breath upon seeing Ling Feng getting ready to work. After all, wasnāt he the venerable deputy captain of the Criminal Police Team? A little respect would be appreciated.
Liu Tingyu didnāt leave, but instead moved next to Bai Feifei, watching Ling Feng nervously.
"Why are you still here? Itās dangerous, get out!" Bai Feifei said.
"I believe in the bad guy!" Liu Tingyu watched the awe-inspiring female criminal police officer next to her and said guardedly.
"Alright, itās not such a big deal, no need to be on such high alert," Ling Feng was somewhat speechless. Just a bomb, after all; he had faced things hundreds of times more dangerous overseas. It seemed that the criminal police at home were a bit too comfortable, werenāt they?
