Lin Yi’s words took everyone by surprise.

They hadn’t expected that the south door would have such a hidden function.

“We’ve already sent people inside to investigate. There are a lot of things piled up in front of that door. If someone wants to leave through it, they’d have to move all those things first. Police inspections are time-sensitive; if they can’t leave the bathhouse within a minute or two, they’ll be caught. So your theory doesn’t hold up,” Han Zhongyu said confidently.

“Are you sure a thorough investigation was done?” Lin Yi asked.

“Of course,” Han Zhongyu replied with confidence.

“To ensure there were no mistakes in the plan, I had Ling Han handle the investigation. There can’t be any problems.”

All eyes turned to Ling Han, who stood proudly like a regal swan.

It was as if she was saying that her findings were infallible!

Liu Chunjiang, observing from the sidelines, found the situation interesting.

Now, it was just a matter of seeing whose conclusion was correct.

“If there’s a problem, there’s a problem, no matter who you send,” Lin Yi said.

“I can tell you responsibly that the clutter in front of the south door is just a decoy. It looks like there’s a lot of stuff blocking the way, but the back half is empty. It’s all just a ruse.”

“Moreover, if your people had really investigated, they would know that next to the south door is an equipment room. Inside that equipment room is a hidden door leading behind the pile of clutter, making it easy to slip out through the south door without being noticed.”

“This…”

Han Zhongyu was rendered speechless by Lin Yi’s explanation.

Given the current situation, they had no way to refute Lin Yi’s claims since they couldn’t go back inside for another inspection.

Furthermore, if they ignored Lin Yi’s warning and proceeded with the plan, and something did go wrong, no one would be able to bear the responsibility.

Liu Guangxian, standing nearby, was equally surprised and whispered to Li Xianghui,

“How does he know so much? Did you send him to investigate earlier?”

“No, I didn’t.”

Li Xianghui replied, shaking his head.

“Lin Yi’s got no major hobbies except for his love of bathhouses. He knows every bathhouse in the city inside out, which is why he’s so knowledgeable.”

Liu Guangxian couldn’t help but laugh. What kind of person had he brought up?

“Besides the south door I mentioned, the bathhouse also has a basement that’s designed as a leisure area. There’s a hidden door there as well, meant for a quick escape,” Lin Yi continued.

“And the exit from that hidden door isn’t above ground but leads to the underground parking lot of the adjacent mall. Now, I’m just a rookie cop, so you might not believe me. If that’s the case, we from the Xinshan precinct can take responsibility for guarding these two areas.”

Lin Yi’s second revelation shocked everyone even more.

Knowing about the south door was one thing, but knowing about the hidden door in the basement was something else entirely.

How did he know all this? Had he actually gone through those doors himself?

“This…”

The officers from the Songjiang precinct were left speechless.

Lin Yi wasn’t objecting just to show off; he had identified real flaws in the plan.

And while the issue with the south door might have been seen as Lin Yi trying to prove himself, the mention of the hidden door in the basement was proof enough that his concerns were valid.

After all, a simple check afterward would reveal if he was just trying to draw attention.

No sensible person would joke about something like this.

“We’ll stick to the original plan, but the south door and the hidden door in the basement will be handled by the Xinshan precinct.”

Liu Chunjiang decided, leaving the responsibility of Lin Yi’s concerns to Liu Guangxian.

If Lin Yi was right, there would be rewards. If he was wrong, the consequences would be on them.

“Understood!” Liu Guangxian responded.

“It’s nearly time. Take care of the remaining details quickly and don’t waste any more time,” Liu Chunjiang ordered.

“Got it!”

Han Zhongyu composed himself and looked at Liu Guangxian.

“We’ll have Ling Han and Zhao Su from our side. Who do you have?”

“Little Lin, Little Gu, step forward!”

Lin Yi and Gu Yiran stepped forward, and Liu Guangxian said.

“The four of you will go in pretending to be couples. Your primary target is Room 409 on the fourth floor. Don’t give Bai Yongshou any chance to escape. Understood?”

“Understood!”

“Begin the operation!”

With the operation underway, Lin Yi and the others moved out, equipped with miniature communication devices, and headed toward the Qianjiang Bathhouse.

On the other side, Ling Han and Zhao Su also got into character immediately, with Ling Han linking arms with Zhao Su like a couple.

Gu Yiran did the same, linking arms with Lin Yi.

“Huh? Why are you grabbing my arm? Trying to take advantage of me?”

“Take advantage? Please. Boss Liu told us to act like a couple, so we need to make it convincing,” Gu Yiran replied.

“Look at them; they’re already in character. We shouldn’t fall behind.”

“Sis, if they’re supposed to be actors, they wouldn’t even qualify as extras with that level of skill.”

Ling Han shot Lin Yi a displeased look but said nothing, feeling that he was unreliable and too flippant.

“What do you mean by that?” Gu Yiran asked.

“Look at where we are. It’s a bathhouse!” Lin Yi explained.

“What guy would bring his girlfriend or wife to a place like this? You think we’re here to have dinner? Holding arms like that?”

“Take a look for yourself. There are couples going in arm-in-arm, so don’t talk nonsense if you don’t understand,” Ling Han retorted.

Lin Yi was speechless, feeling that this woman was all brawn and no brains.

“I suggest you take a closer look. The people going in arm-in-arm—what kind of people are they?” Lin Yi said.

“I can tell you responsibly that the ones going in arm-in-arm aren’t legitimate couples or spouses; they’re either mistresses or lovers. Real couples and married people don’t hold arms here.”

Lin Yi’s words seemed to resonate with Gu Yiran.

It was true that regular couples or married couples didn’t behave this way in such places.

Her own brother and sister-in-law didn’t hold hands or link arms when they went out, but it didn’t affect their relationship.

“But does that really matter?” Ling Han said.

“Even if they misunderstand us, it’s no big deal. As long as the mission is completed, that’s all that counts.”

“You’re overthinking it. They won’t mistake your relationship, but they will get suspicious,” Lin Yi replied.

“What do you mean?”

“Look at what the people here are wearing—either short skirts or tight-fitting dresses. Now, look at you two. You’re wrapped up like dumplings. Once you’re inside, people will definitely get suspicious. So let’s split up to avoid you causing problems for us.”
