Luo Feng did not beat around the bush; he went straight to the Western restaurant where he had previously met with Ailan.
It was lunchtime, and the restaurant was bustling with patrons. Unperturbed, Luo Feng approached the reception desk and slammed his hand down on it.
“Where’s your manager? Call him out!”
His sudden, aggressive demeanor startled the young receptionist.
Her voice quivering, she stammered for a moment before finally pointing towards the manager’s office.
“The manager should be in his office; you can go directly.”
Seeing her cooperation, Luo Feng didn’t make it difficult for her and stormed into the manager’s office.
Inside, the manager was attempting to escape through a window.
Luo Feng grabbed him, pulling him back. “Where do you think you’re going?”
The manager initially panicked upon seeing Luo Feng but quickly regained his composure.
“Sir, may I help you with something?”
He tried to feign innocence, but Luo Feng wasn’t in the mood for games. “Where did that man named Ailan go?”
“What Ailan? We are a restaurant; so many people come and go every day. I have no idea who you’re talking about!”
Luo Feng knew he needed to produce some evidence.
“He installed a signal jammer in your restaurant. I assume you approved it?” “Or are you saying you know nothing about this?”
His evidence was indirect, so the manager didn’t admit to anything and tried to play dumb.
“Sir, I honestly don’t know. I was wondering why our signal was so bad, why we couldn’t make phone calls, and then—I‘ Bang!
Luo Fenc cut him off with a Dunch on the desk.
“Think carefully before you speak. Otherwise, I won’t be so courteous.”
Faced with Luo Feng’s menacing demeanor, the manager finally gave in.
“Sir, I genuinely don’t know that person. He gave me some money and told me to install a jammer. That’s all. I don’t know what he’s up to!”
The manager looked distressed, and Luo Feng could tell he was likely telling the truth.
Luo Feng then leaned in close, lowering his voice.
“I don’t care about the details; I just want to know where he went. Tell me, and
I’ll leave you be. Otherwise, you’ll experience my methods.”
The manager was too frightened to speak but did have some clues.
“We have surveillance cameras. He left not too long ago; you should be able to see which direction he went in the footage.”
The manager led Luo Feng to the security room, where the video clearly showed Ailan heading towards the Cosmic Tower.
Luo Feng was surprised. After all, this guy had kidnapped Charlie’s daughter. How could he dare go to the Cosmic Tower?
Didn’t he fear his actions would be exposed and he’d be unable to leave the tower?
Though puzzled, Luo Feng wasted no time and headed directly to the Cosmic Tower.
Once there, he tried to inquire about Ailan at the reception desk, but the receptionist was uncooperative.
“Right now, I’m working for your boss. I need your cooperation. I don’t need much information, just which department and office Ailan works in.” Luo Feng was already being very polite, but the receptionist scoffed. “I’ve seen many like you, using all sorts of excuses. You’re a nobody.”
“And our boss? How could someone of his stature hire someone like you?”
“If you’re here to deceive, better give it up. People like you can’t mess with Cosmic Tower. ”
The receptionist taunted Luo Feng multiple times. Initially, Luo Feng didn’t intend to engage, but this was too much.
“Is everyone who works at Cosmic Tower like you?”
“Like me how? Watch your mouth, kid!”
“Even if I’m just a receptionist at Cosmic Tower, that’s a height you’ll never reach in your lifetime!”
Hearing this, Luo Feng finally lost his patience.
“Before telling others to watch their mouths, you should mind your own!” Luo Feng didn’t want to waste any more time with him and tried to walk past.
But the receptionist wouldn’t let it go.
“Trying to force your way into Cosmic Tower? Let me teach you a lesson today!”
“Security! Over here! Someone is causing trouble in Cosmic Tower!”
