The Invincible Strongest Student

Chapter 839: Chapter 839: Playing Little Tricks

Lin Tian and Bai Shishi took the elevator straight to the first floor because previously Huang Shitou had been placed in the employee rest area there and was found dead inside.

Xianglong Building’s first floor mostly deals with reception, not office space.

Upon hearing someone died, some employees whispered and glanced around, but quickly stopped doing anything unrelated to work when they saw Bai Shishi and Lin Tian.

Joking aside, the more unusual the circumstances, the less one wants to be noticed by the boss, or else being fired is justly deserved.

Walking quickly to the scene, they found that the employee rest area had already been blocked off by the police. At that moment, some officers were taking statements from employees, and Mei Ruyan was conversing with a policeman.

Lin Tian, from afar, activated his X-ray vision and glanced into the room.

The rest area had not changed much; even Huang Shitou’s corpse was lying there as before.

”Ruyan.” Bai Shishi called out from a distance.

Mei Ruyan immediately stopped talking to the policeman and walked over hurriedly.

Bai Shishi anxiously asked, ”How’s the situation?”

Mei Ruyan looked back and shook her head, saying, ”Not good. The guy died under very suspicious circumstances. He was perfectly fine outside, yet he died as soon as he came in?”

”Someone wanted him dead, so he ended up dead.” Lin Tian commented calmly.

Mei Ruyan was utterly confused, having no idea what Lin Tian meant.

But Bai Shishi understood; he was referring to Bai Yu!

Mei Ruyan added, ”Besides that bastard dying so oddly, today’s police behavior is strange too. Did you notice? There are a lot of officers here, eight in total. We just reported a criminal intended harm and they sent eight people. Plus, they appear prepared, and their demeanor seems to target us specifically.”

This is not good news!

Bai Shishi’s brow immediately furrowed. She couldn’t understand; the Bai family has some connections in the police, but not the kind Bai Yu could utilize. If not Bai Yu, then who?

Suddenly, Bai Shishi remembered those who tried to take Mei Ruyan away a few days ago.

They’re colluding with Bai Yu!

This inside-outside cooperation really caught Bai Shishi off guard.

At that moment, two uniformed officers approached. Leading them was a middle-aged man with a square face, thick eyebrows, and a large mouth.

Mei Ruyan found him familiar but couldn’t recall who he was.

The two walked up to Lin Tian, and the middle-aged man smiled warmly, saying, ”We meet again.”

Seeing this man, Lin Tian’s mood soured, yet he smiled in return, ”Yeah, we meet again. Your injuries have healed, haven’t they?”

Tang Feng’s face twitched, thinking about how they say you shouldn’t hit a smiling face. After smiling so broadly, how could you bring up being beaten in Xu Ning’an’s hospital room? Isn’t that reopening old wounds?!

”Pretty much healed...” Tang Feng forced a smile, ”Don’t misunderstand, I’m not here to find trouble today, I’m just doing my job.”

Tang Feng was really scared by Lin Tian; last time, this guy easily found his family’s information with just a phone call, which was truly intimidating.

Lin Tian paused, having difficulty believing this guy had changed?

”Let’s skip the pleasantries. A few reporters have arrived, and I’ve checked; they say Huang Shitou was holding the knife when your hand got cut. Then you punched him in the face, and soon after, his life signs were unclear. Is that right?”

Lin Tian stared into Tang Feng’s eyes, his gaze seemingly penetrating, wanting to see through everything in Tang Feng’s mind.

Under Lin Tian’s gaze, Tang Feng felt like he was being watched by a predator, making him uneasy and stiffening his limbs.

After a while, Lin Tian nodded, ”Yes, that’s correct.”

As soon as Lin Tian finished speaking, Bai Shishi hurriedly added, ”That’s not right! Lin Tian’s punch was self-defense! After that punch, he was still breathing!”

The officer next to Tang Feng said, ”But that doesn’t rule out that the punch hit a vital spot, putting him at the edge of life-threatening harm, and he died from lack of treatment.”

Bai Shishi replied, ”That’s impossible! The punch wasn’t that hard!”

”Not hard? Dislocated jawbone, lost three molars, still not hard?”

”...” Bai Shishi was at a loss and gave Lin Tian an accusatory glance, ”Why did you hit so hard? Can’t you take it slow?”

Lin Tian was amused by her. Take it slow? He stabbed me, and you want to toy with him to death?

”Can I go in and see him?” Lin Tian asked Tang Feng.

”That... shouldn’t be allowed...”

Lin Tian reached into his pocket, took out a credential, and handed it to Tang Feng, saying, ”I’m just going in to confirm the cause of death. You know I’m a doctor, and with you present, I have no chance to do anything else.”

Tang Feng glanced at the credential and saw the words ’Security Management Institute’ emblazoned on it, making him speechless. He wanted to refuse but didn’t have the authority.

”Maximum two minutes.” Tang Feng returned the institute credential.

”More than enough.”

Crossing the line, Lin Tian entered the rest area wearing shoe covers and gloves. Meanwhile, Tang Feng and two officers followed, their six eyes fixated on Lin Tian, leaving him no room for action.

First, Lin Tian examined Huang Shitou’s eyes, then his tongue coating, jawbone, and finally took his pulse.

Tang Feng watched in bewilderment, unable to resist asking, ”The person’s dead; what’s the point of checking the pulse?”

”Though deceased, the pulse hasn’t entirely ceased within a certain time frame.”

After speaking, Lin Tian lifted Huang Shitou’s wrist. With his hands in his pockets, he said, ”Unfortunately, he’s been dead for a while, and nothing can be gleaned from the pulse.”

Next, Lin Tian removed a silver needle he carried. As soon as he took it out, Tang Feng asked, ”What are you doing now?!”

”Why so jittery? I’m just using the silver needle to pierce his throat, to check whether he died from poison.” Lin Tian replied irritably, ”Can I change anything by pricking the neck of a corpse?”

”Alright... alright then.”

Ignoring Tang Feng, Lin Tian turned away and inserted the silver needle into Huang Shitou’s neck.

Meanwhile, he held a thumb-sized glass vial in his other hand, containing a transparent liquid. Seizing the moment when Tang Feng wasn’t paying attention, Lin Tian poured the liquid, combined with Spiritual Qi, into Huang Shitou’s mouth.

With Spiritual Qi, Lin Tian was convinced it would spread throughout the body in less than two minutes!
