Chapter 2190: Chapter 2191: Showing Off with Life
“Who is he?”
Qi Yongchun froze, a bad premonition suddenly emerging.
Words spoken by different people can carry entirely different meanings.
“I heard you were treating this matter seriously, and several people called me.”
He Jiaxing was holding a teacup, sipping lightly as he said,
“By the way, there’s something I forgot to mention. They called on my private number. Think about it—who could reach me through my private number?”
Snap—
The teacup in Qi Yongchun’s hand fell to the floor and shattered.
His entire body stiffened on the sofa, motionless, unsure of what to do.
“What, what did they say?”
“That man called Lin Yi, you can’t touch him.”
“Can’t touch him? Could it be that he…”
“Come with me. I’ll show you something, and you’ll understand.”
Saying this, He Jiaxing stood up and walked to the window.
Qi Yongchun, trembling, also got up from the sofa and shakily stood beside him.
When he looked down, he staggered.
If it weren’t for He Jiaxing’s support, he would have fallen.
“Armed Police…”
“You should be relieved that it’s them who came.”
“How, what’s wrong?”
“That man called Lin Yi has a complex background,” said He Jiaxing:
“The people who called me included Zhonghai’s second-in-command, the head of the Zhonghai Garrison Area, the head of the military in Yanjing, and a top leader from the core government. Think about it — could you really take action against such a person?”
Thump!
Qi Yongchun collapsed on the floor, his body shaking.
“How, how could this be? He’s just a cop, how could he have such a powerful background?”
“Do you think an ordinary cop could kill so many people in one breath, without any hesitation? You’ve oversimplified things.”
He Jiaxing silently stood by the window, paying no heed to Qi Yongchun.
“You’ve been blinded all these years, failing to see many things clearly.”
“There’s, there’s still time, the men below haven’t dealt with him yet, I’ll tell them to release him right now!”
In a panic, Qi Yongchun grabbed his phone, finally realizing the seriousness of the situation.
“Old Qi, it’s too late now,” He Jiaxing sighed:
“Do you think he’s an ordinary person since he could occupy such a position? Do you really think he can’t see through what’s going on here? The outcome had already been decided the moment you undertook this.”
“Is there, is there no chance of redemption at all?”
“None,” said He Jiaxing. “And it’s not just you, many people have lost their chance, alas…”
He Jiaxing sighed, “You should understand that some people are untouchable. I hope you learn from this, but whether you have a chance to reform in the future is uncertain.”
Whoosh!
Qi Yongchun didn’t respond and immediately fainted.
…
In the detention center, Huang Sihai and six others arrived, while Liu Yuancheng was wheeled in.
Meanwhile, Lin Yi was isolated in a room, which delighted Zhou Changlin and the others as if it were New Year.
They approached the cell, expecting to see a disheveled Lin Yi along with his remorseful and regretful eyes.
Unexpectedly, they found him soundly asleep on his bed, even drooling.
Seeing this, Huang Sihai and the others wore grim expressions.
They had never imagined Lin Yi would be in such a state in the cell.
“This kid must not know what’s happening to even sleep,” mocked Liu Yuancheng.
“He must think that people from Zhonghai will protect him, so he isn’t scared at all,” sneered Huang Sihai.
“If that’s the case, I think it’s necessary to tell him the truth, in case he still harbors any illusions.”
“I think so too.”
Clang clang!
Huang Sihai kicked the iron bars.
Lin Yi, deep in sleep, drowsily opened his eyes.
Seeing Huang Sihai and the others at the door, he rubbed his eyes and said:
“Why are you guys here too, were you also caught? But it seems six are missing.”
“Ha…”
Liu Yuancheng chuckled coldly in his wheelchair.
“You’re wrong there; not only were we not caught, but we are also very much alive. We came here to let you know that the verdict has almost been decided. It’s either the death sentence or life imprisonment. What do you have to say now?”
“Nothing much to say, I don’t really care either way. Someone always has to die.”
“Wow, such words from you, you seem quite smart, probably anticipating your own fate,” sneered Liu Yuancheng:
“But I still admire you. Even at this moment, you’re still so composed. Not many people could do that.”
“What you’re saying makes it sound like I’m the one who will die. Why wouldn’t I be able to sleep then?”
Liu Yuancheng and Huang Sihai and their group burst into laughter.
“So you think the ones to die will be us?”
“Luck takes turns; fate spares no one. It’s all uncertain. Be ready, you never know when the knife might fall on your head.”
“Fine, say whatever you want, we don’t mind,” Liu Yuancheng said:
“But let me remind you, don’t be too arrogant. Now that you’re here, there’s no way out. You might be strong, but starve you for seven or eight days, and I don’t believe you’d still have the energy to make trouble.”
“I must say, your tactics are quite sinister.”
“Sinister? I think they’re quite fitting,” said Liu Yuancheng:
“But don’t worry, we’re not going to let you die so quickly. I won’t rest until I’ve repaid you for all these injuries.”
“I’ll wait then, and see who dies in the end.”
“By the way, before we leave, there’s one more thing to tell you,” Liu Yuancheng said:
“Before coming here, we already called the person in charge at Zhonghai, and the arrangements are set. So, no one can save you now. Don’t hold onto any unrealistic hopes.”
“You even called the Zhonghai police?”
“Of course, procedures have to be followed.”
“Ha…”
Lin Yi laughed, initially planning to handle this matter himself, but the other party had called Zhonghai.
He guessed that someone would take care of this soon.
Rustle rustle—
At that moment, a clinking sound came from not far away.
Instinctively, Huang Sihai and the others turned their heads to look.
To their surprise, the person approaching was Qi Yongchun!
At this moment, Qi Yongchun was handcuffed and wearing a prison uniform!
In less than an hour, he had become a prisoner!
“What’s going on?!” Huang Sihai exclaimed in surprise.
