She heard the woman's name was Laura, and Cheng Xiaofan's eyes widened. What was going on with this woman, getting arrested at a hotel?
Even if she had done something to get arrested, it had nothing to do with me.
Cheng Xiaofan asked, "Old Hua, do you know who Laura is?"
Hua Fasheng said, "I just got the news from the police. After Laura was arrested, she directly admitted that she was a demon cultivator from the United States."
"Because of Meili's relationship, the police are very sensitive to the word 'demon cultivator,' and they informed me about Laura's arrest immediately!"
Cheng Xiaofan asked, bewildered, "How was she caught?"
Hua Fasheng said, "Soliciting prostitution!"
Cheng Xiaofan's head spun when he heard this.
This Laura was so terrified at Mount Tianzhu that her inner core, cultivated for many years, shattered. She was just brought to the city by Potiangying and then did something like this?
Mud!
Were foreign women like this?
After a while, Cheng Xiaofan forced himself to ask, "Old Hua, this is really strange. How did I get involved in this matter of Laura soliciting prostitution?"
Hua Fasheng chuckled and said, "Mr. Cheng, you've misunderstood. Laura said there were over thirty female demon cultivators who came to China this time, and you dealt with them all at once. She was almost scared to death."
"She found a hotel, solicited a man, wanting some excitement to forget her fear, but she was discovered and reported, leading to her arrest by the police."
"She also said that if it weren't for the shock you gave her, she wouldn't have resorted to soliciting prostitution!"
"..." Cheng Xiaofan was speechless.
This woman did such a thing and still blamed me. How bizarre!
He asked again, "Where is Laura now?"
Hua Fasheng said, "She's temporarily detained at the police station. I'm calling you so late to ask for your opinion on how to handle this female demon cultivator!"
Cheng Xiaofan smiled faintly and said, "Given the future safety of Meilina, my personal opinion is to arrange for someone to escort her back to her country."
"Alright, Mr. Cheng. I'll arrange everything first thing tomorrow morning." Hua Fasheng replied.
Cheng Xiaofan pondered for a moment and said, "Also, Old Hua, when Laura leaves tomorrow, could you give her my phone number so she can contact me anytime after returning home?"
Hua Fasheng was slightly taken aback.
He was curious about what else Cheng Xiaofan had in mind and what future contact he would have with Laura.
However, Hua Fasheng knew very well that Cheng Xiaofan was not an ordinary person, and he must have a special purpose for everything he did.
Some things were better left unasked.
He immediately said, "Okay, I'll give her your phone number when I see Laura tomorrow!"
Ring ring!
After finishing his call with Hua Fasheng, Cheng Xiaofan put away his phone and lay down on the bed. Just as he was about to fall asleep, his phone rang again.
Who was it now!
Didn't they want him to sleep?
He fumbled for his phone and saw that it was Lu Shengming calling.
He was about to hang up, but then he thought, if they were calling at this hour, it must be urgent. Had something gone wrong when collecting the bodies at Mount Tianzhu?
He suppressed his strong displeasure, pressed the answer button, and asked, "Old Lu, why are you calling at this hour? Are you deliberately preventing me from resting?"
"I'm sorry, Xiaofan. There's something I must tell you right now!" Lu Shengming seemed to have anticipated Cheng Xiaofan's anger and tried to keep his tone low.
Cheng Xiaofan gritted his teeth and said, "What is it? Hurry up and tell me, don't waste my rest time!"
Lu Shengming said with a smile and a subdued tone, "Xiaofan, someone is coming from the capital tomorrow and wants to meet you!"
"I won't meet them!" Cheng Xiaofan could immediately guess that the person from the capital Lu Shengming mentioned must be from the headquarters of the Jianghu Affairs Bureau.
And their purpose must be related to the demon bone blade in his possession.
Just as he was about to hang up, Lu Shengming said, "Xiaofan, don't hang up yet. This person is your university mentor in the capital!"
"Who is it?" Cheng Xiaofan asked.
Lu Shengming said, "Zhang Heng, you shouldn't have forgotten him, right?"
"What, Zhang Heng from the headquarters of the Jianghu Affairs Bureau is my university mentor?" Cheng Xiaofan asked in disbelief.
Lu Shengming replied, "Yes, it's him!"
Upon hearing this, Cheng Xiaofan was stunned.
He had already learned from Lu Shengming that the director of the Jianghu Affairs Bureau headquarters was named Zhang Heng, but he hadn't paid much attention to it at the time.
When he was studying in the capital, there was a person named Zhang Heng who was his mentor and had always cared for him deeply.
What Cheng Xiaofan never expected was that the two Zhang Hengs were the same person.
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Cheng Xiaofan remembered that Zhang Heng from the Jianghu Affairs Bureau had asked Lu Shengming to get him a bottle of premium happy wine.
Lu Shengming quickly apologized, "Cheng Xiaofan, I'm truly sorry. It was only when I was reporting the matter of the demon cultivators to Director Zhang just now that he told me."
"In the past, I was always curious why, whenever I mentioned you to him, his tone was always so concerned. I never imagined there was a teacher-student relationship between you!"
Cheng Xiaofan listened and smiled, "Since you've put it that way, I won't blame you. My mentor said when he would arrive here?"
Lu Shengming said, "He said he would be here before eleven o'clock!"
Cheng Xiaofan smiled and said, "Tomorrow, I'll book a private room at the external affairs office. I want to host my mentor properly, and you must accompany me then!"
"Okay, okay,"
Lu Shengming was overjoyed, his tonsils almost jumping out of his throat. "Thank you so much, Xiaofan. I won't disturb your precious rest time anymore. Uh, bye-bye!"
After hanging up the phone, Cheng Xiaofan's sleepiness was gone. He thought, I never imagined that my philosophy mentor from university was also a leader in the Jianghu Affairs Bureau.
However, on second thought, being a philosophy mentor and being a leader at the headquarters of the Jianghu Affairs Bureau didn't seem to conflict.
He, a top student from a prestigious university, had returned to his hometown to become a farmer and then a inheritor of Shennong?
Speaking of Zhang Heng, Cheng Xiaofan had a particularly deep impression of him. Once, while he and Li Weiguo were strolling down the street, they passed a roast duck restaurant. The aroma of roast duck wafting from the restaurant made their mouths water.
But!
Both of them came from poor families and didn't have much money in their pockets, so they dared not eat extravagantly.
This scene was precisely what Zhang Heng discovered.
While they were leaving, Zhang Heng bought a whole roast duck, returned to the university dormitory, and specifically called Cheng Xiaofan, asking him to bring Li Weiguo to his dormitory.
When they arrived at Zhang Heng's dormitory, to their surprise, a large plate of freshly sliced roast duck was laid out on the table.
That night, Cheng Xiaofan ate the roast duck while tears streamed down his face...
