Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Zheng Xingang didn’t do anything when he saw Lin Yi standing outside the car.

However, Ma Qiang was shocked. The cigarette butt fell on his pants and burned a hole.

Most importantly, they also saw Mao Lei. He was beaten black and blue. He no longer looked like a human being.

Ma Qiang’s brain spun rapidly, unable to understand what was going on.

He had brought more than ten experts here. Did all of them lose to him?

Lin Yi casually opened the passenger door and looked at Ma Qiang.

“The two of you are really something. If you can’t steal in secret, you’ll steal in the open. I’ve really underestimated the courage of you people.”

On the way here, Lin Yi learned from Mao Lei that Ma Qiang wasn’t the only one who planned this. Their boss, Zheng Xingang, was also involved.

When he opened the car door, he guessed that the man sitting in the driver’s seat was their boss.

Zheng Xingang carefully extinguished the cigarette butt, his gaze never leaving Lin Yi.

He had also guessed that the man who appeared in front of him was the person he wanted to rob this time!

“W-what are you talking about? I don’t understand!” Ma Qiang said.

“It’s okay if you don’t understand. I have a way to make you understand.”

Lin Yi reached out and grabbed Ma Qiang’s collar, pulling him down.

Smack!

Ma Qiang fell to the ground and looked at Lin Yi with fear.

The commotion around Lin Yi attracted a large crowd of onlookers, all eager to find out what had happened.

Liang Ruoxu put on a mask and sunglasses and stood a little further away.

She was prepared to let Lin Yi handle this matter. Her identity was special, and she was not prepared to participate in this matter.

At the same time, Zheng Xingang also got out of the car.

“Mao Lei, what’s going on?!”

Mao Lei shivered.

“Brother Gang, we miscalculated. This kid is especially good at fighting. The ten of us are not his match.” Mao Lei said with a long face.

“My condition is considered alright. The other brothers are more badly injured. They’re all lying inside.”

“A dozen people couldn’t defeat him?”

“He was extremely ruthless; he didn’t hold back at all.”

The two of them had extremely ugly expressions. This was something they had not expected.

Lin Yi glanced at the two of them. “I asked the haunted house staff to send him to the police station, but yet you could still appear here. You should be in cahoots with the haunted house, right?”

“Does this have anything to do with you?”

As the Hall Master of the Nine Mountains Society, Zheng Xingang was quite wordly. He quickly regained his composure and helped Ma Qiang up.

“I’m from the Nine Mountains Society. You should have heard of this organization. Don’t make an enemy out of us. I didn’t…”

Whack!

Lin Yi raised his hand and slapped Zheng Xingang’s face!

“Are you f*cking talking to me?”

How could Zheng Xingang withstand Lin Yi’s strength?

Half of his teeth were knocked out. He lay on the ground in a sorry state and struggled for a long time, but he did not stand up.

“You motherf*cker!”

“What are you all doing? Move aside!”

Just as Zheng Xin was about to make a move, he suddenly heard shouts from outside the crowd.

When he realized that it was two police officers, he hurried over.

Lin Yi wasn’t surprised by the police’s appearance.

This was West Lake. There were people patrolling here all day long. They had even arrived a little later than he had expected.

“What happened? Why did you hit him?” The police officer looked at Lin Yi and asked.

“First they tried to steal from us, then they robbed us. I was doing the right thing.”

The police officer smiled and looked at Ma Qiang, Zheng Xingang, and the others. “You’re quite bold. This is West Lake. How dare you do this openly? Are you really not considering the consequences?”

Neither of them spoke because neither of them was afraid.

If this matter continued to drag on, it would really not be easy.

However, if he went to the police station, it would be easy to handle.

Seeing that neither of them spoke, the police officer said, “Since you’re not saying anything, it means that you’ve tacitly agreed. We’re from the West Lake Branch. Come with us.”

This is industry jargon meaning that if you had connections, you could use them, but if you didn’t, then you had to follow the standard procedures.

Lin Yi turned around to look at Liang Ruoxu and winked at her. Liang Ruoxu understood instantly and had no intention of following.

The four of them were brought into the police car and their expressions became much more relaxed.

“I can tell that the three of you are repeat offenders. You’re not afraid of us anymore,” the policeman said.

“Comrade, I’m Zheng Xingang from the Nine Mountains Society. I’m familiar with your situation.”

“You’re from the Nine Mountains Society?”

Although the Nine Mountains Society was an underground organization, on the surface, it was a teahouse.

Only a few related people knew the truth behind their organization.

“Yes, yes, yes. The racecourse there belongs to me.”

The policeman nodded and pretended to be serious.

“Call your men.”

“Okay, okay, okay. I’ll make the call now.”

Lin Yi pursed his lips and didn’t say anything. He wasn’t in a hurry.

About half an hour later, the four of them were taken to the police station and went to the interrogation room.

“The three of you are guilty of stealing and robbery, right?”

“Yes, we are,” Zheng Xingang said without hiding anything.

Here, there was no other choice but to cooperate.

As long as he made some arrangements later, this matter would be resolved perfectly.

Seeing that Zheng Xingang was being very sensible, the police didn’t say anything else and prepared to deal with Lin Yi first.

In comparison, he was an outsider.

After settling his matters, everything else could be resolved in private.

“We just investigated, and you not only beat him up, but also more than ten other people, who were left seriously injured by your actions. This has had a very negative impact and now constitutes the charge of causing serious harm.” “Huh? Are you sure you’re not joking?” Lin Yi asked.

“This can be considered self-defense at most. How is this related to serious injury?”

“Bullsh*t!” Mao Lei said.

“We did snatch something, but I realized that I wasn’t his match and begged for mercy. However, he still refused to give up and kept hitting us with the iron rod! This wasn’t self-defense at all! It was clearly deliberate revenge!”

The police officer looked at Lin Yi. “Now that the evidence is conclusive, do you still claim that you were defending yourself?”

“Why not? Am I supposed to just stand there and let them fight openly?”

“Although they were in the wrong, this is another matter. We will deal with it seriously. Now, we still have to hold you accountable!”

“I think you have a bias,” Lin Yi said calmly. “Will you not take action against them because they are from the so-called Nine Mountain Society?”

Bang!

The police officer slammed the table and stood up. “What nonsense are you spouting?”

“Comrade, comrade, don’t lower yourself to his level.” Zheng Xingang went forward to persuade him, then looked at Lin Yi.

“Brother, let me tell you the truth. It’s best for you to cooperate and admit your mistakes. Otherwise, your situation might get even worse once you’re out. It’s better to stay put here than to bring more trouble upon yourself..”
