Chapter 177 - Credit

Lingshan couldn\'t help but blush at the praises her subordinates were throwing at her- her thoughts were a mess as she looked at Lin Yi, lying on the ground as if the whole thing had nothing to do with him.

She ordered them to get the suspects to the police, and told them that she\'d follow them a while after, before hanging up.

There was a lot of credit waiting for her back at the station, and Lingshan could already imagine the smiling face the director would greet her with… but Lingshan was by no means happy at all.

For it was Lin Yi who located the suspects, and Lingshan wasn\'t quite sure what to do anymore.

Hello Lingshan said to Lin Yi, who gave no reply.

She stooped down and lowered her body to look at Lin Yi.

How did you do it

Weren\'t you following me the whole time Lin Yi said with half-open eyes as he enjoyed the gorgeous view Lingshan was giving her.

...... Yes, but you were pissing me off the whole time! I don\'t know anything!!

On the other hand, how was the guy even so sure about his guess

Observation. Lin Yi said, naturally keeping the jade a secret.

Minute observation and daring conjecture.

I was walking around randomly, but it only looked like it- it wasn\'t random at all!

Oh Lingshan was starting believe the things Lin Yi said, now that he\'d proven himself.

So the walking around hadn\'t been random at all

What I did was just empathize myself with the suspects! Lin Yi continued.

When they themselves came up the mountain, they did what I did- they looked around, walking randomly as they looked for a hiding place.

After all, they aren\'t people who\'d use the logical methodologies you people use, because unlike you, they\'re not professionals.

So I simply put myself in their shoes- what would I do if I were them I moved around aimlessly, getting myself pissed off because I couldn\'t find a good hiding spot.

Then I placed my sights on the spot people would most likely overlook, a place where most people would never consider suspecting.

Because if I were a criminal on the run, I\'d go for the risk and send someone to check the cliff, see if there was a cave inside it.

If yes, then I\'d hide in there with them, spending my time relatively peacefully until the whole thing blows over.

That\'s how you did it It sounded like a bull** argument, but it did provide some insight to the things Lin Yi had done earlier… It also explained why he was walking around aimlessly earlier.

How else could I have done it Lin Yi shrugged.

Did you see me using any high-tech equipment

No. Lingshan nodded as she believed what Lin Yi told her.

But I have to say- it was a daring conjecture.

Not daring- it\'s just logical.

These criminals aren\'t as professional as you guys are, and there\'s only one other possible explanation if your professional search methods aren\'t getting you anybody, because they can\'t be any more professional than you are. Lin Yi replied.

It only means that they did something that would put themselves at risk.

Well, whatever the method, I have to thank you! Lingshan found Lin Yi\'s method to be way too simple- it was like the guy was joking with her.

Yet there wasn\'t much she could say, now that the suspects have been located.

No need to thank me- I\'ve been hired by Mister Chu to look after Miss Chu, so it\'s only natural for me to help apprehend those with hostile intents towards her. Lin Yi said, stopping the bull**.

I understand why the captain recommended you now. Lingshan said.

But, who did you learn all this from

Ah… It\'s just a difference in mentality. Lin Yi said, dodging the question.

You were looking at it from the police perspective, and I just looked at it from a regular person\'s.

So how long are you gonna look Lingshan said abruptly.

Should I continue lowering my body for you Should I maybe undo the buttons too

Ah… cough cough…… Lin Yi uttered, a little embarrassed that Lingshan had caught where he had been looking- He was talking with such a serious face on the whole time, too.

I\'m just looking at the sky……

Then continue looking.

I\'m leaving. Lingshan said, straightening her body as she turned around to leave.

I\'m done.

Let\'s go. Lin Yi said as he jumped off the ground before patting at his clothes.

The police weren\'t posted at the entrance anymore, but two of the officers remained as they awaited Lingshan\'s return.

You\'re amazing, Captain Song- you found them with just one walk up the mountain! The officers praised, evidently having heard of the apprehension.

Lingshan only reddened at the praise- it wasn\'t even her, it was Lin Yi who did everything! She glanced at Lin Yi softly only to see that he didn\'t even seem to be listening…

Lingshan sighed before turning to the officers.

Alright, you guys get back to the station first.

I still have something to attend to.

Understood, captain. The officers said before getting in their cars.

Lingshan made her way to the car, where Lin Yi was waiting for her.

She unlocked the doors, and she started the car, clearly embarrassed from the praise the officers had given her.

Remember, the credit\'s yours.

It has nothing to do with me. It was actually Lin Yi who spoke up first.

Ah Lingshan blinked at the words, looking at Lin Yi curiously.

What did he mean by that

Look at the road when you\'re driving. Lin Yi reminded.

Don\'t tell anyone about what happened today, keep this between us.

I\'m pretty busy recently, so I don\'t have time to be dealing with other stuff.

The police have a reward prepared for the person who provides information, two hundred thousand cash.

You don\'t want that Lingshan asked, not understanding Lin Yi\'s disinterest in the credit.

I do, but it\'ll be too troublesome. Lin Yi said.

You think those guys are the only ones involved There\'s people backing them up.

You\'re saying you don\'t want people targeting you for revenge Lingshan said, catching on to what Lin Yi was thinking.

Maybe not revenge, but I know about the people backing them up. Lin Yi shrugged nonchalantly.

They\'ll naturally know about me if I ruined their plans, and there\'s more to it when I talk about trouble.

I\'m not looking to get involved in all that- I\'m under Chu Pengzhan\'s employment only, do you get it

So you want to mind your own business Jeez, just say you don\'t wanna help anymore, what\'s with your stretched-out explanation!! Lingshan couldn\'t believe it- this Lin Yi was just indirectly telling her not to bother him in the future!!

Glad you understand. Lin Yi said.

Unless it\'s something important- I\'ll help you out if that\'s the case, but only for Jun Bro\'s sake.

Chapter 178 - Ridiculous Deaths

...... Lingshan curled her lips as she looked at how pleased Lin Yi was with himself- it wasn\'t even a proper method he\'d used! Sure, the guy put himself in the shoes of the suspects, but a strategy like that wouldn\'t have worked most of the time, it wasn\'t something that could be officially used or anything.

Lingshan, however, had no way of knowing that even Lin Yi thought of it as a stupid search method.

Huaijun would never have recommended him for the job if that empathizing strategy was all he had, and he\'d never have accepted the job in the first place.

Lin Yi\'s lecherous gaze that constantly defiled Lingshan\'s body, on the other hand, set Lin Yi up to be a man much more shameless than he actually was in Lingshan\'s eyes.

Don\'t worry, Master Lin!! I won\'t be troubling you unless we absolutely need it! Linghsan said as she curled her lips, annoyed at how proud of himself Lin Yi was- the guy was just a bodyguard, what did he think he was doing, putting on airs like that

Mm.

Glad you understand. Lin Yi nodded crisply.

Are you familiar with the name Li Cihua

Li Cihua Lingshan paused as if understanding something.

You\'re suspecting that Li Cihua\'s the mastermind behind the robbers

I\'m not suspecting that- he is. Lin Yi said.

He is How do you know Lingshan said, stunned.

Chairman Chu

No, from Li Cihua himself. Lin Yi said, not planning on hiding the information from Lingshan.

The way he saw it, the more Lingshan had to work with, the faster the police would be able to take him in.

It\'d save him trouble if that happened.

Li Cihua himself He told you this Lingshan stared at Lin Yi oddly, finding Lin Yi\'s claim a little bizarre.

Do you have proof

He tried to recruit me to his side yesterday. Lin Yi explained.

He\'s a representative who talks about profits, that\'s all I got from him.

I rejected his offer, and as for evidence- I don\'t have any, it\'s my word against his.

The guy was real cocky, too, as if the police tracing the whole thing back to him was the last thing on his mind.

So it\'s him…… Lingshan\'s grip on the wheel tightened.

I\'ve investigated him before, but there was too much resistance- that person behind him just has too much power.

Even Captain Yang couldn\'t handle it, let alone me……

Lingshan was visibly angered as she spoke, but she couldn\'t be blamed for that.

After all, it had been the first case she\'d picked up since her transfer, a case that involved the man backing Cihua.

Nothing went smoothly, and there was a lot of resistance interfering with Lingshan\'s investigations- it was as if an invisible hand was pushing against her, on top of pressure coming from all directions, forcing Lingshan to give up on the case.

It had turned into a thorn in Lingshan\'s heart, but she understood that hot-blooded passion was nowhere near enough to deal with a man like Cihua.

The man was simply too cunning, with businesses submerged in both the worlds of law and crime.

There wasn\'t the slightest bit of evidence against him, and there simply wasn\'t anything Lingshan could do.

Who\'s the man backing him up Lin Yi asked.

Lin Yi had no concern whatsoever of a person\'s background or position- it was something he utterly ignored.

That time back in Africa, for example, when he rescued Yi from a general from his fortress… He\'d exploded the general\'s son\'s testicles with a kick, but neither of them dared say anything.

He\'d had armies and weapons, both of which had no effect on Lin Yi at all.

After all, there was absolutely nothing stopping Lin Yi from paying them a visit, something he\'d proven with ease the first time he dropped by.

They could resent Lin Yi, and think about revenge all they wanted, but the fact that Lin Yi could go and explode his son\'s head the next time remained concretely in their minds.

There\'d been too many examples of big-shots like that falling after Lin Yi had dealt with them- drug lords, mafia bosses… The man supporting Li Cihua wasn\'t anything too powerful if Lin Yi wanted to make that comparison.

He could very well wipe the person off the face of the planet if he wished so.

He\'s from the capital.

You wouldn\'t know him even if I told you. Lingshan said without answering the question, evidently not very enthusiastic about the topic.

Oh Lin Yi, on the other hand, noticed the oddity in Lingshan\'s emotions as he looked deeply at her.

The topic seemed to be a taboo for her.

It\'d be better for you if you didn\'t involve yourself in this. Lingshan said, considerate of Lin Yi for once.

We\'re talking about someone that neither the captain or I can touch- that goes for even the director himself! You\'d be putting your life at risk if you butt in.

Just stick to your follower job.

Of course- I\'ll leave him alone if he doesn\'t do anything to me. Lin Yi smiled.

Lingshan rolled her eyes at the statement, naturally seeing it as an unfounded boast.

She stopped the car in front of the school, and unlocked the doors.

I\'ll remember what you did today- I\'ll repay you with a dinner sometime.

Ok. Lin Yi nodded with no hesitation at all.

...... Lingshan wasn\'t quite sure what to say- it was a genuine invitation, but couldn\'t the guy be a little less shameless and not accept it that directly

Lin Yi, on the other hand, got out the car and started making his way to school, not quite interested in what Lingshan was thinking of him.

Li Cihua had smashed four or five bottles of red wine back in the Solid Cloud, all of them dating back to the eighties.

Su Jiaonang stood to the side as the red of the wine spread across the floor, very much like how a puddle of blood would.

His head was lowered as he held a 1982 Laffe a waiter had just handed to him.

Cihua Bro, here……

Fucking SHIT!!! Cihua yelled as he swerved the wine into his LED TV, shattering it and cracking the TV as red splattered everywhere.

A 1982 Laffe was a luxury, but that depended on what one compared it to!! Next to two golden class masters, the wine was worthless!! It was two golden masters, early phase and peak late phase!! They were the most powerful characters in the city, monsters!! And now they were dead from a **ing car accident!!!!

It was something Cihua simply could not accept!! He\'d have a much, much easier time admitting his loss if the two had died in combat- that would be his own fault, and also the masters\' for being bested in a fight! But what the ** was this ** about a car accident! He\'d even sent someone to investigate it due to Cihua refusing to accept the fact, and the results were simple and straightforward…

The left tire had exploded, and the car had lost its grip on the road from the speed it was traveling at, resulting in it flying off the cliff… The cause for the puncture in the first place, however, remained unknown- for the entire vehicle had been burned to ashes.

Cihua had his suspicions- it was a possibility that Lin Yi was responsible for the whole thing, but there just wasn\'t any proof… He also found it hard to believe that Lin Yi would be able to do anything at all to a high speeding vehicle…

Yet Cihua pinned the responsibility on Lin Yi all the same! Something like this wouldn\'t have happened if he didn\'t need to have Lin Yi killed in the first place!!

Cihua\'s heart was bleeding at that point- things would get a lot more inconvenient without the two golden class masters by his side… His only route now was to call the man supporting him.
