Time and space seemed to have stopped at this moment.

“AH!”

“Ghosts!”

Qiu Yuluo and Ning Che screamed in unison. They were so frightened that they hid behind Liu Hong.

The three of them stopped talking. They could even hear themselves gulping.

The expression on their faces was one of extreme confusion.

“Who, who are you…?” Liu Hong probed.

Liu Hong was also stunned.

Lin Yi had clearly been cremated, but now, he had actually appeared in front of them.

What was going on?

“Do you have any grievances?” Liu Hong asked.

“We’ll definitely help you take revenge. We’ll give you justice. Don’t stay here while refusing to leave. I’ll burn some paper for you later and burn dozens of girls. Hurry up and leave.”

Lin Yi,

Damn it, you’re the leader of the Central Guards Brigade. You can’t be so superstitious!

“Calm down.” Lin Yi opened his hand and said.

“I’m not dead. There’s still a shadow under my feet.”

Qiu Yuluo and Ning Che were so frightened that their faces turned pale. “We were the ones who sent you to be cremated. We even took out your ashes. How could you not be dead?”

“That was a fake death arranged by Elder Lu. Because I had other things to do,

he didn’t expose my identity.”

With that, Lin Yi pointed at his feet. “There’s still a shadow. How could I be a dead person?”

The three of them looked over in unison and indeed saw the shadow under Lin Yi’s feet.

Their flustered expressions improved slightly.

“But the hospital said you were already dead. There shouldn’t be any mistakes in that regard, right?” Ning Che said.

“I was still breathing at the time; maybe the machines didn’t pick it up,” Lin Yi replied.

“Besides, we all know how to use our dantian for strength in combat. Our physical condition is better, so I gradually recovered.”

Lin Yi wasn’t sure how to explain it, so he used this excuse to get by.

The trio’s mood seemed to improve a bit.

At the very least, Qiu Yuluo and Ning Che were not as scared anymore.

Ning Che, gathering her courage, walked over to Lin Yi and poked him with her finger, finding nothing unusual.

Only then did she truly believe that Lin Yi was alright and had really come back to life.

“Boss, you’re really not dead. You’re a normal person, not a ghost.”

Lin Yi, “…”

What kind of adjectives were these?

But as she spoke, Ning Che started crying.

She punched and kicked Lin Yi.

-You scared us to death! Why didn’t you tell us you were alive?”

Lin Yi was a little upset. Although the two of them only shared a little bit of romance, Lin Yi was touched to see her cry like this.

Beside him, Qiu Yuluo also quietly wiped her tears. Although it was not as intense as Ning Che’s, her excitement was indescribable. Tears were the best answer to the current situation.

Even Liu Hong’s eyes were a little red.

-It’s good that you’re alive.” Liu Hong stepped forward excitedly and patted Lin Yi’s shoulder. Although there was still a wound on his face, it was not a big deal.

The main thing was that he was fine.

“You’ve been in Yanjing this whole time. Is there any update?”

“I’ve already found out who the mole and the person who fired the gun from the dark is. I came over to prepare to interrogate them.”

“Huh?”

Lin Yi’s words shocked the three of them. They didn’t expect to find the other party so quickly.

“Who?” Liu Hong asked seriously.

As the leader of the four combat units of the Central Guards Brigade, he was especially concerned about this matter.

“Chen Guanjie and Cao Jiadu.”

“Both of them!”

The three of them had different expressions and were surprised.

If Lin Yi hadn’t it, they wouldn’t have associated it with them.

“If the person behind this is Chen Guanjie, then this matter is very likely related to the Wang family.”

Liu Hong knew about the complicated networks in Yanjing.

Chen Guanjie was a close relative of the Wang family. Other than Wang Tingshan, there was no one else who could order him around.

“Smart. That’s spot on.”

Liu Hong’s expression was a little conflicted as he pondered and said,

“If this matter is related to the Wang family, but Wang Tingshan has already…” Halfway through his sentence, Liu Hong raised his head and looked at Lin Yi. His meaning was self-evident.

But Lin Yi only smiled and didn’t say anything.

There were some things that didn’t need to be said too clearly. As long as it was pointed out, everyone understood.

Liu Hong’s heart raced as he wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.

He knew the Wang family’s status very well. If Lin Yi really did this in secret, then the impact would be no less than a world war.

He had actually killed Wang Tingshan. Liu Hong had never even dreamed of such a thing.

“Let’s go, Boss Liu. This is not the place to talk. Let’s go in first,” Ning Che called out.

“I can’t go through the front door. We’ll split up. We’ll contact each other by phone afterward.”

“Do you have a cell phone?”

“It’s all made up.”

“That’s good.”

After a brief chat, the four of them split up and entered the Central Guard Brigade base.

About twenty minutes later, a Great Wall SUV pulled up at the entrance of the base.

Chen Guanjie and Cao Jiadu got out of the car.

Both had attended Wang Tingshan’s farewell ceremony in the morning. After receiving the order from the Central Guard Brigade, they came here together. Neither of them took Lu Beichen’s summons lightly. Their faces were serious as they pondered the deaths of Wang Tingshan, his son, and Chen Chufeng. “Do you think it could have been an accident?” Cao Jiadu asked.

“Absolutely not,” Chen Guanjie replied.

-They all had drivers, so they wouldn’t have been driving themselves. And Brother Wang wouldn’t touch that stuff, so hallucinations are out of the question. It was clearly the work of a murderer.”

After a few seconds of silence, Cao Jiadu slowly said, “Is it possible that Lin Jingzhan did this?”

“It couldn’t be anyone else.”

Chen Guanjie sighed. “We’ve planned everything, but we didn’t consider Lin Jingzhan. I thought he was dead or doing badly outside. I didn’t expect him to still be alive and in this state. We’ve miscalculated.”

“Will our relationship be exposed?” Cao Jiadu was a little worried.

“Don’t worry, that’s impossible,” Chen Guanjie said confidently.

“They acted because they didn’t know who the killer was, but the Wang family was the most likely suspect, so they took action. Now, without any evidence, they can’t point the finger at us. Just stay calm.”

Cao Jiadu nodded. Before this, he also believed it was unlikely that they would be blamed, as every step they took was well-hidden and couldn’t be discovered. Now that Chen Guanjie confirmed it, he felt even more assured.

“I’m curious, though. Why did Lu Beichen call us here?”

“It should be for a major meeting,” Chen Guanjie replied.

-With such a significant incident, the Central Guard Brigade will definitely need to conduct an internal review. That’s likely why we’ve been summoned back. It’s probably related to Lin Yi and a series of plans for revenge, and they need our participation for that..”
