When they saw Wang Tingshanâs phone, their expressions could not remain calm.
They thought that Wang Tingshan had been killed by Lin Jingzhan, but they never thought that his phone would be taken away!
This was because his phone records were on it!
As a result, everything that they had done would be exposed!
Lin Yi tapped his ear. â1 think that since things have come to this, you guys donât have to hide anymore. You were in charge of delivering the latest news to Wang Tingshan in the Central Guards Brigade, and Chen Guanjie was in charge of firing dirty shots at the front line.â
Lin Yi stood up slowly and walked to the two of them.
âTo be honest, if it werenât for the two of you, things wouldnât have ended up like this. Zhou Liang wouldnât have died either. Itâs all because of you!
Lin Yi raised his leg and kicked Cao Jiadu!
âDo you know who you are?!â
Cao Jiadu was beaten to the ground, but he did not dare to fight back, nor did he have any intention of fighting back.
This was the Central Guards Brigade. He couldnât leave even if he wanted to.
âHeheâ¦â
Chen Guanjie, who had been silent all this while, sneered.
âI have a relationship with the Wang family to begin with. So what if there are call records? This doesnât mean anything, right?â
âIndeed, your reason is valid,â Lin Yi said faintly.
âBut what I want to say is that during the time when I was in trouble, your
Team 4 was operating on Tilia Island, and you didnât seem to be on the island.
How do you explain this?â
âAlthough Iâve never been to the island, 1 know the rules. Every entry and exit must be recorded by the Central Guard Brigade, and it seems you donât have such records. Can you give me a reasonable explanation for that?â Lin Yi asked.
âWho do you think you are? Do I owe you any explanations?â Chen Guanjie retorted.
âIt doesnât matter who you report to. 1 just need the truth,â Lin Yi said calmly.
âOf course, if you canât provide an explanation, this matter will need thorough investigation. You might even face charges of treason. You have a few hours to think about your actions and their consequences. You know better than I do what might happen if you canât explain yourself.â
Chen Guanjieâs face changed as he realized the danger of his situation.
If he could find a suitable excuse, there might be room for negotiation.
But if he couldnât, Lin Yi could accuse him of anything without needing further evidence.
âWho do you think you are? Do you think you can just accuse me of any crime and deal with me? Iâm the leader of Team 4!â Chen Guanjie snapped.
âSince you put it that way, let me ask you, who do you think you are?â Lin Yi responded coldly.
âYouâre a member of the Wang family. The moment the Wang family fell, you were on our list for elimination. Do you really think your achievements give you immunity? We just havenât found the right reason yet. Weâre all just cogs in the machine. If one fails, it gets replaced. Donât overestimate your importance.â
Chen Guanjie and Cao Jiadu fell silent.
Their bodies started trembling, implicitly admitting their wrongdoing.
âLin Yi, I admit 1 lost my way. Could you please ask Old Lu for mercy and give me another chance?â Cao Jiadu pleaded, gripping Lin Yiâs arm, tears streaming down his face.
âIâll hand over everything, just donât sentence me to death. Please, give me one more chance, Iâm begging youâ¦â
By the end, Cao Jiadu was on his knees, pleading desperately.
Whack!
Lin Yi slapped Cao Jiaduâs face and shouted,
âI can spare your life, but what about my comrade? Can he come back to life?!â
Cao Jiadu instantly sobered up, and his eyes darkened.
As an official of the Central Guards Brigade, he knew very well that he had no way out and that this might even implicate his family.
Lin Yi took out his phone and called Liu Hong.
Soon, he brought people in and took Cao Jiadu and Chen Guanjie away.
The office fell silent.
Lin Yi sat on the chair weakly with his eyes closed and his brows furrowed. Dealing with Wang Tingshan and the spy was his biggest obsession after he reawakened.
Now, Wang Tingshan was dead and Chen Guanjie and Cao Jiadu had been dealt with.
However, he didnât feel anything at all. He didnât even care if they were sentenced to death.
No matter what happened to them, it was impossible for a person to come back to life.
Tears fell from the corners of his eyes. Lin Yi even thought that it would be
good if he died like this.
Suddenly, Lin Yi felt a chill on his face.
When he opened his eyes, he saw Ning Che beside him who then handed him a tissue.
âThe dead canât be revived. Now that things have come to this, itâs useless to be sad. Weâve already done everything. Knowing that thereâs a team leader like you who risked his life to save us, Zhou Liang in the netherworld will be satisfied.â
âThings havenât been settled yet.â
Lin Yi lay on the chair and said calmly,
âThe people who attacked Zhou Liang are from the Black Snake organization.
As long as they are not dead, this matter is not over.
âNo!â Ning Che immediately refused.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âIn the past few days, Iâve gained a comprehensive understanding of the Black Snake organization. Theyâre ranked 16th on the blacklist. Their overall combat level is not something we can deal with. We have to consider this matter at length before acting.â
âAt length?â Lin Yi said slowly.
âThen how long do we have to wait?â
âWellâ¦â
Ning Che was speechless. She didnât know how to answer Lin Yi regarding this matter.
Aside from Black Snakeâs regular combat force, many of their normal troops knew how to exert force in their dantian. They were all very strong.
Moreover, he had been active on the island all year round. Their combat experience and combat literacy were not something Black Gold and the others could compare to.
If they went over rashly, they would definitely be at a disadvantage.
âBut you canât go either!â
Lin Yi remained silent.
Ning Che knew that Lin Yi didnât listen to a single word he said.
He had his own code of conduct. When someone violated these rules, he would not care about anything and would act in his own way.
Whoosh!
Ning Che exhaled. She knew that she couldnât persuade Lin Yi, so she could only think of a way to help him.
Silently, Ning Che lit a cigarette and smoked without saying a word.
Her thoughts were that no matter what Lin Yi did this time, she had to follow him.
The worst that could happen was death. She didnât want what had happened in Chepopur to repeat itself.
Time passed slowly like water.
Ning Che accompanied Lin Yi in the office. Liu Hong had come once during this period. Seeing the two of them here, he left without saying a word.
At noon, Lin Yi got up to stretch his body. Ning Che stood up and said,
âItâs already noon. Letâs eat something.â
âLetâs go.â
âIâll give Yuluo a call,â Ning Che said, holding up her phone.
âWhat is she up to?â
âShe went to the hospital to handle some paperwork for you.â
âHmm? What paperwork?â
âYour death certificate. Your current status is deceased; it needs to be changed.â
âDoes she really need to do that herself? Couldnât Old Lu handle it with just a word?â
âDo you really think heâs that free? She can take care of this small task quickly.â
Ring, ring, ring!
The phone began to ring as Ning Che made the call.
âHello?â
âDo you know someone called Li Chuhan?â
Qiu Yuluoâs question surprised Lin Yi. âYes, why?â
On the other end of the phone, Qiu Yuluo was silent for a long time.
âShe committed suicide..â
