Thinking this, the two walked through the crowd towards a secluded corner of the amusement park and stopped when they saw no one around.
Lin Feng, following closely behind, knew he had been exposed. He dropped all pretense and asked coldly, "Speak, was the Ferris wheel your doing? And who sent you?"
"Brat, go ask the King of Hell!"
The two men suddenly turned around, sharp daggers appearing in their hands as they lunged towards Lin Feng.
Unfortunately, they had underestimated Lin Feng's strength. Before the daggers could get close, Lin Feng grabbed their arms and yanked hard, sending them crashing into each other.
Seizing the opportunity, Lin Feng grabbed the taller, thinner man by the collar. "Tell me, who sent you? What was your objective?"
Lin Feng's eyes glinted with ferocity, and with a slight squeeze of his hand, the thinner man cried out in pain.
"Brat, kill me if you dare, but I won't speak!"
The thinner man remained stubborn.
"Fine, let's see if your mouth is tougher than my needle!"
Lin Feng sneered and pulled a silver needle from his pocket, pricking the thinner man's pressure point.
"Ah! It hurts!"
The thinner man's face contorted in pain, his fists clenched, and sweat instantly beaded on his forehead.
"If you don't want to hurt, then confess. Otherwise, I'll make you hurt more!"
Lin Feng smiled faintly.
However, the smile sent shivers down the thinner man's spine.
He had initially thought Lin Feng, with his slender build, was no match for them.
Now, he realized this guy was far from the weakling they imagined, but more like a little demon.
"Still won't talk?"
Lin Feng produced another silver needle.
The thinner man swallowed nervously, conflicted.
"Alright, then I'll make you hurt a bit more!"
Lin Feng's eyes turned cold, and he was about to plunge the needle into the thinner man's body when—
*Bang!*
A black shadow suddenly attacked, kicking at Lin Feng's hand.
Sensing the danger from behind, Lin Feng clenched his fist and turned to meet the blow.
Fist met fist, and the black shadow was forced back several steps by Lin Feng.
Lin Feng finally got a clear look at his attacker. The man was about 1.85 meters tall, wearing a black cat mask, and cloaked in a black trench coat.
Although his face was obscured, his physical condition was excellent.
"Kid, you're up against me!"
The Black Cat Man said in a deep voice, then charged at Lin Feng again with a clenched fist.
Lin Feng didn't hold back and met the attack with his own fist.
To Lin Feng's surprise, the Black Cat Man was an adept fighter, matching him blow for blow for over a dozen exchanges without giving ground.
"Stop! Hands behind your head and squat down!"
While Lin Feng and the Black Cat Man were fighting, Xia Xue arrived with Chu He.
Luo Keke and Liu Mengyao followed closely behind Xia Xue.
Xia Xue held a revolver, aiming it at the Black Cat Man.
"Kid, I'm not playing with you anymore. We'll meet again."
The Black Cat Man chuckled, then leaped away, darting like a civet cat through the high-rise buildings at night.
"Want to leave? Not so easy!"
Lin Feng's eyes narrowed, and he made to give chase, only to have a cold handcuff snapped onto his wrist.
"You're not going anywhere. I'll have someone catch him. You need to come back with me for a statement!"
Xia Xue said coldly, giving Chu He a look. Chu He immediately pursued the Black Cat Man.
"Xiao Xue, can you stop fooling around? I'm a law-abiding citizen, he's the bad guy, why are you cuffing me?"
Lin Feng was exasperated. The best chance to apprehend the Black Cat Man had been missed, and he had likely vanished by now.
What was even more infuriating was that the taller, thinner man and his accomplice had also escaped during the fight between Lin Feng and the Black Cat Man.
"Lin, you're still calling me Xiao Xue? That's not appropriate for you to say!"
Xia Xue was furious.
"Then I'll call you Captain Xia, alright? Release me quickly!"
Lin Feng was helpless. He couldn't fathom how Xia Xue, who couldn't distinguish right from wrong, could be a junior captain in the Dark Unit. Perhaps the Dark Unit was short-handed?
"You won't be released! I'll let you go once things are cleared up!"
Xia Xue said, cuffing Lin Feng to a nearby utility pole before chasing after the Black Cat Man herself.
"You're no match for him. Chasing him would be futile!"
Lin Feng kindly advised.
The Black Cat Man was the only opponent he'd encountered who could match him since arriving in Qingcheng. While Lin Feng was confident he could defeat him, the man's skill was not to be underestimated.
Xia Xue paid no mind to Lin Feng's advice, thinking he was being too dismissive.
"Little Lin, you're in a bind, huh? Need me, Keke, to find a chainsaw to free you?"
Luo Keke walked over with a smile, looking at Lin Feng cuffed to the pole. She mused that Lin Feng was usually so fierce, but seemed to deflate when facing Xia Xue, that she-devil.
"Yaoyao, don't talk nonsense. You can't just cut handcuffs carelessly!"
Liu Mengyao chided.
"Sister Yaoyao, I didn't say cut the handcuffs. I meant saw off Little Lin's hands. That way, they'd be free, wouldn't they?"
Luo Keke giggled.
"I'm truly speechless! In that case, I'd rather remain cuffed!"
Lin Feng leaned against the utility pole, contemplating the Black Cat Man's identity.
If they were in league with the mastermind behind the Ferris wheel incident, then these people might not have been arranged by Zheng Youlong at all.
Given the Black Cat Man's demonstrated abilities, Zheng Youlong couldn't possibly control him. Therefore, the mastermind must be someone else entirely.
As Lin Feng pondered, Xia Xue and Chu He returned, empty-handed.
"Damn it! He still got away!"
Xia Xue was indignant.
"Captain Xia, that guy was too agile. He's clearly a master."
Chu He panted. He had chased for several blocks but hadn't seen a trace of the Black Cat Man.
"Let's worry about that later. We need to take this Lin fellow back for questioning. With such a major incident, we must thoroughly investigate!"
Xia Xue's expression turned stern.
It was fortunate that the Ferris wheel collapse hadn't resulted in casualties; otherwise, it would have been a major disaster!
"Captain Xia, why are you arresting me again? I'm a good citizen who acted bravely. Instead of commending me, you keep trying to arrest me. It's quite disheartening!"
Lin Feng feigned a wronged expression.
"Mr. Lin, please don't misunderstand. Our captain just wants you to cooperate with our investigation and recount everything you saw and experienced in detail."
Chu He explained, casting a peculiar glance at Lin Feng.
He had witnessed Lin Feng's fight with the Black Cat Man firsthand and had seen the Black Cat Man's prowess.
Therefore, from that encounter, Chu He concluded that Lin Feng was no ordinary person, at least not inferior to the Black Cat Man in skill. Could Lin Feng be his former captain?
Chu He mused, feeling a strong intuition that Lin Feng was his Wolf team leader, yet lacking direct evidence.
Lin Feng noticed the subtle shift in Chu He's eyes and smiled, "Alright, I'll certainly cooperate fully. I'll go with you!"
