"Creak--"
The hinge of the interrogation room door produced a piercing friction noise, interrupting Feng Mu’s thoughts.
He decisively rejected the system’s suggestion, but a trace of regret surfaced in his heart. Encountering a system glitch should have been a godsend, yet he failed to imdiately profit from it. The feeling was akin to watching a billion yuan slip through his fingers.
The system, seemingly fearing his change of mind, hastily withdrew the option window and instead popped up a standard prompt box:
[Blood and Flesh Initial Solution Mastery • Three Solutions (74/10000)]
[Remaining General Skill Proficiency 58730]
[Feedback failure reason.....]
[To break through Three Solutions in Blood and Flesh Initial Solution Mastery, the following pre-conditions must be t (choose any two):
1. Achieve Perfection in Four Martial Arts of Four Grades (Not Achieved)
2. Constitution breakthrough to 10 points (Not Achieved)
3. Yijin (Not Achieved)]
Feng Mu didn’t even look before directly closing the prompt box.
It wasn’t that he was cold-hearted, just that when a more glamorous choice was present, he made the sa mistake all n would.
"As long as the Jade Finger Bone is really in this room..."
His gaze swept over the gap between the floor tiles,
"Sooner or later, I’ll have a chance to take it. Then, as long as I find a way to remove its side effects..."
In a spark of inspiration, Feng Mu had already outlined several plans in his mind.
n are like that; the more alluring sothing is, the more they desire it.
As for danger? Just find a way to conquer it.
Besides, even if the Jade Finger Bone isn’t as magical as he rembers, the re fact that it can interfere with the system and trigger a glitch is enough for Feng Mu to spare no expense in acquiring it.
This isn’t just a matter of a Jade Finger Bone; it’s clearly a decryption key to hack into the system’s back door!
Evidently, although reality was unverified, Feng Mu’s heart already leaned towards believing the existence of the Jade Finger Bone.
As for why the Jade Finger Bone could interfere with the "omniscient and omnipotent" system, he temporarily set that question aside. He could ponder it once he actually obtained the Jade Finger Bone.
Feng Mu exhaled a century’s worth of stale air and raised his eyes to the person entering the room. After recognizing that familiar face, a fleeting sense of bewildernt appeared in his eyes.
There was nothing he could do; this face had accompanied his lonely existence for too long, and he rembers it should be hanging on the ceiling there.
Feng Ju walked into the interrogation room, eting Feng Mu’s gaze. In an instant, he felt a strange and eerie chill, causing goosebumps to rise on his neck.
"This unfilial son, why does he keep glancing at my head when he sees ? Is there sothing dirty on my head?" Feng Ju inexplicably felt a chill in his heart.
Feng Ju suppressed the strange emotions in his heart, forced a smile, and said in a deep voice:
"Feng Mu, your performance today has greatly comforted your father. It seems you have grown a lot during this ti."
Feng Mu slowly lowered his gaze, focusing back on Feng Ju’s face. In the original body’s mory, he had never seen such a concerned look from Feng Ju.
He politely replied, "It’s all thanks to you, father!"
Feng Mu’s words were not insincere. If it weren’t for Feng Ju, the original body wouldn’t have despaired and committed suicide, and without that, Feng Mu wouldn’t have had the chance to return to the human paradise.
From this perspective, Feng Ju had indeed bestowed upon him a great favor, one that he couldn’t help repaying.
Feng Ju could sense the sarcasm in the unfilial son’s words and gritted his teeth, forcing a smile:
"Previously, I placed too many expectations on your sister and neglected you. That was my fault, and I sincerely apologize. From now on, let’s be a family..."
Feng Mu couldn’t be bothered to watch Feng Ju’s performance, nor did he accept Feng Ju’s apology.
Because he wasn’t qualified. The one qualified to accept Feng Ju’s apology had died three years ago in that narrow, cramped room.
Feng Mu maintained a cold stare, but his face carried a calm smile:
"My dear father, were you watching next door just now?"
With a single sentence, Feng Ju’s throat clamd shut, and his expression turned sullen.
Feng Mu’s reaction was vastly different from Feng Ju’s expectations.
Doesn’t the internet say there’s no overnight grudge between father and son? As long as the parent admits a slight mistake, the child will be moved to tears. How could it be that this unfilial son, Feng Mu, is so cold-hearted?!!
Feng Ju took a deep breath, didn’t directly respond to Feng Mu’s question, and instead tried to appeal emotionally:
"You can rest assured, Captain Li is extraordinarily skilled at exonerating people. With him here, I can also avoid suspicion.
In any case, you should be able to leave soon. When that happens, rember to give your mom a call; she always worries about you."
Feng Mu squinted at Feng Ju’s incessant chatter. He still preferred the silent and solemn father from a century of solitude.
Perhaps he should seriously consider the suggestion Wang Cong made last night.
Seeing Feng Mu silent, Feng Ju secretly rejoiced:
"It seems this unfilial son isn’t that heartless after all, ultimately swayed by my words.
Alright, since this unfilial son has so ability now and I can’t kill him, I should change my attitude and use familial affection to bind him, helping the family shine."
Feng Ju, a thorough utilitarian, had a flexible stance and approach, always starting from a point of interest. That’s the survival path he had always adhered to.
Before Feng Mu could refuse, Feng Ju let out a long sigh and gently said:
"This weekend, I’ll have Yuhuai co ho for dinner. You should co too."
Feng Mu gazed deeply at Feng Ju, an unfathomable chill passing through his eyes. This ti, unlike before, he didn’t flatly refuse but slowly squeezed out a word through clenched teeth:
"Alright."
In the observation room next door.
Li Shang looked coldly at the scene in front of him, his expression changing unpredictably.
"Feng Ju didn’t lie to . Feng Mu is indeed his son, but the two seem to have a rift. Feng Ju is trying hard to nd it, and Feng Mu seems sowhat shaken." Li Shang speculated silently.
Originally, he planned to build a personal relationship with Feng Mu after helping him get acquitted.
After all, Secretary Hou had specifically instructed him to protect Feng Mu, and Secretary Hou casually ntioned that this order ca directly from Mr. Wang.
What left a deep impression on him was Secretary Hou’s smile while explaining. It was a smile full of implications, sparking imagination.
But now, all those thoughts in Li Shang’s heart vanished instantly.
"I won’t be going over; you go and release him later."
Li Shang ordered with a cold tone, expressionless, to Chang Erbing standing next to him.
Chang Erbing noticed Li Shang’s gloomy face, didn’t ask much, nodded, and imdiately went to execute the command.
At the sa ti.
On the road in front of the Patrol Office, a row of prison vehicles was neatly parked, and over twenty n in black suits stood in a line like blades in front of the cars....
