“Undercover…” Zhao Qiang’s face fell.
What f*cking undercover!
You’re a f*cking customer!
He actually made it sound so dignified!
“Damn it, I admit defeat today,” Zhao Qiang said. “In any case, I’ll be out in a few days.”
“That’s where you’re wrong.” Lin Yi shook his finger. “The others will be released after a few days of detention, but you won’t.”
“What do you mean? Why won’t I?!”
Lin Yi pointed at the dozen people who had confronted him just now. “You called so many people over to beat me up. This is considered assaulting a police officer. This is a serious crime. It’s probably enough to get you sentenced for a few years, so you’re on your own.”
Zhao Qiang’s expression was sluggish, as if he could not process the situation.
It was all over.
“Alright, don’t talk nonsense with them.” Gu Yiran said.
“Take them all!”
One after another, Zhao Qiang and the others were taken away.
“Give me some face and forget about these female technicians. After all, I ordered them.” Lin Yi smiled.
Gu Yiran rolled her eyes at him. She couldn’t do anything about Lin Yi. It was fine if he ordered one, but he had to order four. Would he be able to use them all?
“We’ll go back and make a statement.”
“Sure thing.”
Lin Yi turned around with a smile and looked at the four female technicians. “Don’t be afraid. Head on over and go through the procedures. I’ll have them let you go later.”
“Okay, okay, okay. We’ll cooperate.”
The four female technicians bowed and thanked Lin Yi.
At the same time, Lin Yi’s image became bigger in their hearts.
President Lin was too amazing. He was actually a police officer!
Moreover, after causing such a big incident, someone still managed to keep him out of trouble—no ordinary person could pull that off.
Given the situation, continuing his activities at the bathhouse was out of the question, so he decided to head back with the others.
After all, he planned to return to work officially the next day and thought it would be good to show his face around.
He still had tasks to complete and needed to get moving.
About an hour later, Lin Yi returned to the precinct with Gu Yiran and the others.
On the way, he chatted with them about recent developments.
During his absence, the criminal investigation team had solved another major assault case.
The rest of the time had been relatively quiet, mostly helping other departments.
As for Zhang Peng and Zhang Zixin, they had dealt with a slew of bizarre civil cases almost every day.
Lin Yi figured that if he had been around, he probably would have completed this phase of his system tasks long ago.
Upon returning to the precinct, Lin Yi heard Li Xianghui’s hearty laughter even before entering.
Walking in, he saw not only Li Xianghui but also Zhang Hui and Gao Junming.
“What are you guys laughing about so happily?”
Hearing someone speak from the door, the three turned and were surprised to see Lin Yi.
“Where have you been? You’ve been missing for over a month, and your phone was unreachable.”
Seeing Lin Yi walk in, their expressions mirrored Gu Yiran’s earlier surprise. First stunned, then realizing that the person who had disappeared for over a month was finally back.
“I had some family matters to take care of, been busy,” Lin Yi said with a grin. “But now that everything’s settled, I’m back.”
“Don’t listen to his nonsense,” Gu Yiran interjected, rolling her eyes.
“I caught him during a raid at Huaqing Lake.”
Hearing this, Li Xianghui chuckled, “Can’t say I’m surprised. But it’s not a big deal, just be careful next time.”
“I really didn’t expect you guys to swap branches for inspections,” Lin Yi replied.
Back at the precinct, Lin Yi didn’t do much else, just greeted familiar colleagues to re-establish his presence.
He was relieved that the news of his supposed death hadn’t spread within the branch.
Everyone assumed he was just on an extended leave and didn’t think much of it.
Around 4 PM, after saying goodbye to Li Xianghui and the others, Lin Yi left the precinct.
He had promised to pick up Liang Ruoxu after work and have dinner together.
At twenty minutes to five, Lin Yi parked his car at the entrance of the compound and called Liang Ruoxu.
About ten minutes later, Liang Ruoxu emerged, wearing a dark blue dress and carrying a black bag.
It was evident that she had put a lot of effort into her appearance, as she usually didn’t dress this stylishly for work.
Opening the car door, Liang Ruoxu got into the passenger seat, bringing with her a fragrant scent.
“Have you settled everything in Yanjing?”
“It’s nearly done. I don’t need to deal with the rest.”
“Then you don’t have to go back to Yanjing for the time being, right?”
Lin Yi nodded. “Even if I go back, it’s only for a short period of time. I think I’ll be back in a few days. Don’t worry.”
“You still have the cheek to say that,” Liang Ruoxu said.
“I think you should quit the Central Guards Brigade. Isn’t it good to be an entrepreneur?”
“If you said that at this time last year, I might not have gone, but I’ve been in the brigade for more than a year. It’s impossible for me to quit.” Lin Yi said.
“Besides, Old Master Liang is also a member of the Central Guards Brigade now. Aren’t you undermining your own family by saying this?”
“Your position is different from my grandfather’s. He’s in charge of scientific research and has been staying in Yanjing. He doesn’t have much to do, unlike you, who has to go out and risk your life.”
“When you have time, talk to my grandfather and ask him to kick you out of the Central Guards Brigade. Don’t work there anymore.”
Lin Yi smiled. It was obvious that this incident had left an indelible shadow in Liang Ruoxu’s heart.
Lin Yi reached out and grabbed Liang Ruoxu’s hand.
“This was an accident. If the Wang family hadn’t interfered, such a thing wouldn’t have happened. In short, I know what I’m doing. Don’t worry.”
Liang Ruoxu puffed up her cheeks. She knew that it was impossible for her to change Lin Yi’s mind.
“Let’s go and buy groceries first. There’s nothing to eat at home.”
“Buy groceries?”
“Let’s eat at home today, we won’t be going out,” Liang Ruoxu said. “I’ll show you something tonight.”
“Sounds good.”
After that, the two of them went to the supermarket and bought some things before returning to Liang Ruoxu’s house.
When they reached home, Liang Ruoxu took the vegetables to the kitchen and started cooking.
Lin Yi sat on the sofa, holding his phone and chatting with Li Chuhan. He asked about some things at the hospital.
After chatting with Li Chuhan, Lin Yi threw his phone aside and rested his head on his hand to watch television.
Even though he had found a breakthrough point, he still had to find a suitable opportunity.
As for how to find this opportunity, it would all depend on his luck.
In less than an hour, Liang Ruoxu had made two meat dishes, two vegetables, and a soup. For the two of them, it was a very sumptuous meal.
“Hurry up and eat. Try my cooking,” Liang Ruoxu said expectantly.
“It looks good, but if I don’t get some wine, I feel like it won’t be good enough.”
Liang Ruoxu glanced at Lin Yi, “You’re not trying to get me drunk, are you?”
