âNo, no, noâ¦â
Liu Ziqiang was so frightened that he took a few steps back. âOfficer, this is a school. Donât be like this.â
âSo you f*cking know this is a school?â
Lin Yiâs heart was still burning with anger. If this was any other place, he would have kicked him.
âIâm telling the two of you, itâs best not to say anything here. As an educator, you didnât want to deal with something like this. Instead, you helped them hide it. The two of you will definitely be punished.â
Liu Ziqiang and Zhao Huilei broke out in cold sweat. They had worked so many years to climb to their current positions. If they were exposed here, they would definitely be stripped of their positions.
The only hope now was to work with the parents of these students to pressure this police officer. In order to protect their jobs, they naturally did not dare to act rashly.
Therefore, they could not give up. They had to stand on the studentsâ side.
Otherwise, there would be no chance for this at all.
Thinking of this, Liu Ziqiang became excited again.
âOfficer, as an educator, my job is to protect my students,â Liu Ziqiang said.
âAs for the Liu Peipei you mentioned, something like this did happen before. At that time, we also actively dealt with it. We called the parents to school and compensated them. Liu Peipeiâs parents also agreed. What else do you want us to do?â
âWas the result of your mediation a compensation of 1,000 yuan? Do you think itâs reasonable?â
âThereâs nothing unreasonable about it. As long as both sides agree on a resolution, itâs reasonable.â
âAwesome. Your ability to twist words and reason is indeed impressive.â
Lin Yi raised his thumb and asked, âI want to know, from the time Sun Peipei was injured until now, several hours have passed. What have you done to address it?â
âThisâ¦â
Liu Ziqiang was at a loss for words because they hadnât taken any action at all.
âWe will contact their parents as soon as possible to handle this matter.â
âAnd how soon is âas soon as possibleâ?â Lin Yi raised an eyebrow and questioned.
âYou havenât dealt with it for all this time, and now you say âas soon as possibleâ?â
âOfficer, please understand, we have many responsibilities and canât devote all our attention to this single issue, so it took us some time.â
âSince you havenât handled it promptly, thereâs no need for you to handle it now,â Lin Yi said.
âThis is a criminal case, and youâre not qualified to deal with it. Iâm taking them away now. You two, step aside.â
âNo way!â
Liu Ziqiang said righteously.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
âAs the vice-principal of Yucai High School, I cannot let you take these students away!â
âYou sure talk a lot of nonsense.â
Lin Yi reached for Gu Yiranâs waist, took his service pistol, and pointed it at Liu Ziqiangâs head.
Instantly, the office fell silent.
Thud!
Liu Ziqiang collapsed to the ground, trembling uncontrollably. It was the first time in his life that a gun had been pointed at his head.
The fear stemming from deep within made it impossible for him to stay calm.
The dozen students standing by the wall were no different, their faces pale and bodies trembling, huddling together instinctively for comfort.
âGet out of my way!â
Liu Ziqiang swallowed his saliva and retreated with his hands and feet.
Zhao Huilei, who was standing at the side, was the same. She didnât dare to say anything in front of Lin Yi.
âAlright, Lin Yi, put the gun away,â Li Xianghui said.
In reality, many of Lin Yiâs methods had already crossed the line.
However, he was also furious that such a thing had happened.
So he didnât stop Lin Yi, but now, he had no choice.
Lin Yi was young and hot-tempered. If he was allowed to do as he pleased, there might be chaos, and the other party might have something to use against him.
Hence, he had to know when to stop.
Lin Yi put away the gun and handed it back to Gu Yiran. Then, he said to the twelve people standing by the wall,
âKneel down and put your hands on your heads!â
âWhy should I listen to you?â
The boy who spoke was called Zhou Zihang. His hair was a little long and it had been permed. It was not the image a junior high school student should have.
âLet me tell you, my father is the director of the television station. If you dare to touch me, my father will make you suffer!â
âIâll wait for your father to come. Iâll see what heâs capable of.â
Zhou Zihang took out his phone and dialed his fatherâs number. He said with tears in his eyes,
âDad, come to the school quickly. There are a few police officers who want to arrest me.â
âThe director of your school has already called me.â Zhou Zihangâs father, Zhou Guotou, said.
âAre those policemen with you?â
âWeâre in the office.â
âTurn on the loudspeaker. I want to talk to them.â
âItâs on.â
âIâm Zhou Guotao. Where is your person-in-charge?â
Li Xianghui was about to speak when Lin Yi beat him to it.
âIf thereâs anything, just tell me.â
âYou guys should be from the Xinshan branch, right?â Zhou Guotao said.
âIâm the director of Zhonghai TV Station, Zhou Guotao. You donât have to go through so much trouble over such a small matter. Iâll educate him well when we get back. Letâs just give each other some face.â
âWho do you think you are? Do I need you to give me face?â Lin Yi said coldly.
âLet me tell you, even if youâre the emperor, it wouldnât work today.â
âYou!â
It was obvious that Zhou Guotao didnât expect Lin Yi to say this.
âFrom your voice, you sound very young. Donât be so rash. It wonât be good for your future career.â
âF*ckâ¦â
Lin Yi scolded impatiently, âYou donât even know how long your position will last, and youâre still trying to act tough in front of me? Iâll say it again, even if the heavens come, it wonât work. Iâll deal with them today.â
Zhou Zihangâs hands trembled. The reason why he dared to be so arrogant was because of his father.
Now that his father couldnât even speak properly, it was really over.
âAlright, wait for me. Iâll go over now!â
With that, Zhou Guotao hung up.
Lin Yi closed his eyes and leaned back on the sofa, waiting for the man to come over.
Li Xianghui and Gu Yiran remained silent.
Although Lin Yiâs actions were a little radical, they were all within the scope of the law.
Therefore, they did not step forward to stop him.
At this moment, hurried footsteps sounded outside the corridor. At the same time, there were curses.
The office door was pushed open with a creak.
Lin Yi saw a few people standing outside. They were all beautifully dressed middle-aged men and women. There were also a few bodyguards.
âWhatâs going on? This is such a big commotion. Even the police are here.â
