Chapter 537 Breaking Steel Bars with Bare Hands
Lin Feng was slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "Section Chief Su, I can keep doing this for you from now on."
As soon as he finished speaking, the room fell silent for a moment.

"You have to keep your word."
Su Wan raised her eyes, her fingers unconsciously rubbing against the inside of the cup.
Lin Feng nodded: "Don't worry, if I break my promise, you can do whatever you want with me."
Su Wan's eyes lit up instantly, and the corners of her mouth turned up slightly, but she quickly closed them again.
So fast it's almost impossible to catch.
But Lin Feng caught it.
"Alright." She put the coffee cup on the table. "I'll take you downstairs. Some of the medical staff are already up."
Lin Feng: "Then I'll have to trouble Section Chief Su."
Su Wan didn't look at him again and turned to walk towards the clothes rack.
She took off a gray trench coat, slipped her arms into the sleeves, and with a shake of her shoulders, the trench coat draped neatly over her body.
With the belt tightened, her waistline was accentuated, making her look completely different from the languid woman she had been wearing a bathrobe just moments before.
Then she reached her hand towards the foot of the bed.
The pair of high heels that Lin Feng had given them stood there quietly, their surfaces gleaming subtly in the morning light.
Su Wan bent down, lifted her ankle slightly, and the moment her bare foot stepped into the shoe, the instep of her foot stretched out in a smooth arc.
The moment he stood up, his aura changed.
He was like a knife that had been re-sharpened.
Su Wan walked to the door, opened it, then turned around and tilted her head at Lin Feng.
Lin Feng walked to the door and paused for a moment.
He glanced down the corridor.
"How about—" Lin Feng lowered his voice, "Section Chief Su, you should take me and jump out the window, so we don't run into the medical staff."
Su Wan raised an eyebrow: "That's so low. With me by your side, no one will dare to do anything to you."
Lin Feng felt a surge of warmth in his heart at her words, as if something had struck his chest: "Section Chief Su is awesome!"
Su Wan didn't reply, but stepped out of the room. Her high heels clicked crisply and rhythmically on the concrete floor of the corridor.
Tap, tap, tap.
Lin Feng followed behind her, his gaze unconsciously falling on her back.
The trench coat has a straight shoulder line, and the bow on the belt sits perfectly at the waist. The hem of the trench coat sways gently with each step, revealing slender ankles and the heels of high heels.
He couldn't help but sigh inwardly—what kind of man could be worthy of such a beauty?
The thought had just crossed his mind when he suddenly realized: Wait a minute, isn't he her husband?
Damn, I've become my own Versailles!
The two descended the stairs.
Just as the two were about to step into the second-floor corridor—
Footsteps.
It came from deep within the second-floor corridor.
pat, pat, pat.
A wet, sticky sound.
It sounded like someone walking barefoot on the muddy ground after the rain, each step accompanied by the sound of water being squeezed out.
Lin Feng's muscles tensed instantly.
Su Wan's steps did not stop, and her rhythm did not change at all.
She simply turned her head slightly and glanced at Lin Feng out of the corner of her eye—Don't panic.
The clicking sound grew closer.
A figure emerged from the shadows of the corridor.
Lin Feng's pupils contracted slightly.
That was a person?
At least the body is a human body.
He was wearing a white medical coat with several dark water stains on the hem.
With his hands in his pockets and his shoulders slightly hunched, he walked with an indescribable strangeness, swaying from side to side like a snake.
But what truly sent chills down Lin Feng's spine was that head.
catfish.
A grayish-brown catfish head is growing on a human's neck.
Two bulging eyes are located on either side of the top of its head, without eyelids, staring wide-eyed straight ahead.
It has a wide mouth with downturned corners and a long whisker on each side that sways gently as it walks.
The catfish monster saw them.
My steps stopped.
Those two round, bulging eyes first stared at Su Wan, then slowly turned to Lin Feng—
Then she turned back to Su Wan.
Then they turned back to Lin Feng.
The catfish monster opened its mouth, revealing a dense array of teeth, and uttered a muffled whisper:
"Section Chief Su?"
His voice was hoarse, with a strange nasal resonance, as if it came from water.
Su Wan's expression remained normal: "Good morning, Dr. Wang."
The catfish monster—Dr. Wang—fixed his gaze on Lin Feng.
Those eyes, which had no eyelids, bulged even more, as if they were about to pop out of their sockets.
"This...this kid—" His tongue seemed a bit sluggish, and he spoke haltingly, "How could he—how could he be here?"
He took a step forward.
pat.
A foul, fishy odor wafted over, making one feel nauseous.
Su Wan's expression remained unchanged.
"I asked him to help me move my things."
Dr. Wang's beard twitched.
"Moving...moving things?" His round, bulging eyes held a kind of not-so-bright but persistent suspicion. "This...this kid—a human—upstairs? So early?"
Su Wan did not explain further.
She simply tilted her head slightly, and in an instant, her aura made the temperature in the entire corridor drop by two degrees.
"Is there a problem?"
Dr. Wang's beard trembled even more violently.
"No, no—" He took a step back, a hint of fear flashing in his bulging eyes.
"I just feel that humans are pitifully weak. I can help with things like moving things. You can come to me next time."
Lin Feng suddenly made a decision. He lowered his right hand, his mind subtly shifting—
Inside the space, the steel bar he had placed beforehand appeared in his palm.
It was a piece of rebar commonly used on construction sites, about the thickness of an arm and about one meter long.
He has many more of these "unconventional weapons" in his space.
Amidst the puzzled looks of Su Wan and Dr. Wang, Lin Feng held the steel bar in front of him.
Hold one end of the steel bar with your left hand and the other end with your right hand, and exert force with both arms simultaneously—
The muscles tensed, and the steel bar emitted a dull metallic groan, first bending slightly, then the curvature widening.
The steel bars twisted and deformed in his hands, like a piece of pasta being kneaded.
finally--
He exhaled and held the mangled steel bar up to his face to examine it.
A spiral shape.
Three turns, tightly wrapped, with the ends slightly upturned.
The shape... if I had to describe it, it would look like a pile of poop.
Spiral-shaped, steel-like stool.
Lin Feng turned to Dr. Wang expressionlessly and handed him the metal lump: "Here you go."
Dr. Wang's mouth was wide open, and his tongue hung motionless inside his mouth.
Those bulging eyes were wide open to the limit, almost popping out from the sides of their heads.
"this--"
He reached out his hand, then withdrew it, then reached out again, carefully touching the spiral steel bar.
It was cold.
Hard.
It really is steel reinforcement.
"You, you—"
His antennae trembled wildly, like two startled earthworms.
Su Wan's gaze fell on Lin Feng, a glint of light flashing in her eyes.
