In the private room, Zhang Wenlai and the others were toasting and drinking happily.
They didnât take Lin Yi seriously. After everything was done, they would give out the money and arrange for their drivers to escape.
After all, Lin Yi was not a big shot, so they did not take him seriously.
âCome, come, come. Continue drinking. After drinking, Iâll call for the next round,â Zhang Wenlai said with a smile.
After another glass of wine, Zhou Guotao lit a cigarette.
âPresident Zhang, itâs been a while. I think the matters outside should be almost over. Letâs call and ask first.â
Zhang Wenlai looked at his watch and realized that more than 20 minutes had passed.
âDonât bother. I think theyâre all together. Iâll just call and ask myself.â
Zhang Wenlai took out his phone and dialed Tang Pengfeiâs number.
However, no one picked up until the call ended.
âNo answer?â
Zhang Wenlai muttered nonchalantly. Then, he called Tang Pengfei again, but no one picked up.
âI think he left his phone in the car. Iâll call and ask.â
Ma Anong took out his phone and called his bodyguard, but the result was the same. No one answered.
âWhatâs going on?â Ma Anong muttered. âItâs fine if one person didnât bring his phone, but itâs impossible for both of them not to bring their phones.â
âDonât be anxious. Let me make a call and check.â
The others at the table also took out their phones and called their drivers and bodyguards.
But strangely, no one picked up after a round of calls.
This time, everyone started to mutter, and the atmosphere at the banquet fell to a low point.
It was fine if one or two people didnât answer, but if more than ten people didnât pick up, there was a problem.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Whoosh!
At this moment, Lin Yi kicked the door open from the outside.
âWhy are you calling in such a hurry? Do you want to know how the fight is going?â
Zhang Wenlai and the others were shocked.
They saw that Lin Yi wasnât the only one who came in. Their bodyguards and drivers were also there.
Most importantly, they were all beaten black and blue. Their bodies were covered in blood. They looked extremely miserable.
âWellâ¦â
Zhang Wenlaiâs men were all stunned. They never dreamed that things would turn out like this!
More than ten professional bodyguards were beaten up by this guy alone?
âYou people are really bold. Not only did you use violence to threaten the victims to sign the settlement, but you also instigated your bodyguards to attack the police. You will be sentenced to at least ten years.â
âDo you think you can scare us with this?â Zhang Wenlai said.
âDo you really think weâre commoners?â
Whoosh!
Lin Yi kicked the table over, and nobody could dodge in time. The soup and wine on the table spilled on them.
âI really donât understand. Are you people really stupid or are you pretending to be stupid?â Lin Yi said.
âDo you think I would dare to pursue this matter if I didnât have the skills?â
Lin Yiâs words stunned Zhang Wenlaiâs men. This reminded them of a very serious problem.
Why did he, a police officer, dare to do something that no one else dared to do?
If it were anyone else, they would have been fired long ago after they pulled so many strings behind the scenes.
Could he have another identity?
âCut the cr*p.â Zhang Wenlai said.
âBecause of you, my daughter is detained in the detention center. I have to ask you for an explanation for this.â
Step by step, Lin Yi walked towards Zhang Wenlai and kicked him again.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The wooden hanger behind Zhang Wenlai was shattered. He also fell to the ground and did not stand up for a long time.
âIf someone like your daughter doesnât undergo judicial reform, sheâll become scum when she enters society. I think you people should thank me. Why are you still looking for trouble?â
âF*ck you.â
Ma Anong scolded, âThat female student called Liu Peipei is an immigrant, and sheâs from the countryside. So what if we bully her? How can a country bumpkin from the countryside be compared to our children?â
Lin Yi recognized Ma Annong. He was the most vicious person in the surveillance video.
âIs this the sense of superiority of the elite class that makes you think that rural people are inferior?â
âYes, the money we earn in a year is something they will never see in their entire lives. We are superior to them. If they fall behind, they will be beaten. Even if they have to work like slaves, they have to endure it!â
Whack!
Lin Yi raised his hand and slapped Ma Anyongâs face.
âLet me tell you today that your good days are over.â
âNot only will I bring you in, but Iâll also make your family go bankrupt.â Lin Yi said.
âLook at you people. Iâm guessing youâve done a lot of bad things when doing business. When the time comes, youâll be punished for several crimes. Whether you can get out of jail in this lifetime will depend on the judgeâs mood.â
âHaha.â
Zhang Wenlai wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and sneered. âWhy donât you take a look at yourself in the mirror? Who do you think you are? You even threaten that you will make us go bankrupt. Do you have the ability? As long as we have money, we will avoid being sentenced.â
Lin Yi took out his phone and leisurely showed the balance in his bank account.
âDonât pretend to be rich in front of me with whatever pennies you possess.â
Zhang Wenlaiâs face was ashen. He was dumbfounded when he saw Lin Yiâs bank balance.
âHow can you have so much money?!â
âThe judge will answer that question.â
With that, Lin Yi called Wang Zhen and asked them to come and wrap things up.
In the end, Zhang Wenlai and the others were all taken away. As for the subsequent matters, the officials would deal with them, so he didnât need to do anything.
Lin Yi checked the system page in his mind.
Finding that the mission at this stage was still (5/10) meant that this case was not over yet. It would probably only count after the verdict was passed.
After leaving the hotel, Lin Yi greeted Wang Zhen and chatted briefly before driving to Yan Ciâs place.
Lin Yi knocked on the door and heard hurried footsteps coming from inside.
With a click, the door was pushed open. Yan Ci was standing at the door in a wine-red nightdress.
The moment she saw Lin Yi, she hugged him without any explanation.
âWhere have you been all this time? I was so worried!â
âI was assigned a mission, so there was nothing I could do.â Lin Yi hugged Yan Ci and said.
âAlright, donât cry. Iâm back now.â
Lin Yi picked Yan Ci up by the waist and carried her back to the house before locking the door.
âWho told you not to tell me when you came back?â Yan Ci was still unwilling to give up. âIf I hadnât seen the video, I wouldnât have known about this until now!â
âDidnât I tell you? I had a mission.â Lin Yi pinched Yan Ciâs butt. âIâll make it up to you tonight.â
