Chapter 2168: Chapter 2169: Slap in the Face at the Speed of Light

Ma Hua climbed up, his gaze never leaving Lin Yi’s body for even a second.

And his hand was always controlling the child.

For him, this was a Protective Talisman; without it, he couldn’t possibly get out.

Lin Yi stood lazily on the side, showing no intention of making a move.

After Ma Hua left, Lin Yi just followed behind, maintaining a distance of five meters, without any unnecessary movements.

“Lin Bro, are we really letting him go?”

Zhang Zixin, standing in front of the house, asked.

Lin Yi nodded slightly without saying much else, but he kept his eyes on Ma Hua.

“Let the kid go, and we’ll let you leave.”

“Don’t rus.h.!.+”

Ma Hua panted heavily, extremely nervous.

“I’ll let him go after I get in the car. I won’t take this burdensome kid with me… Ah—”

Ma Hua had just finished speaking when he let out a scream.

A silver scalpel thrust straight into his wrist!

In his momentary daze, Lin Yi swiftly rushed forward, grabbed Ma Hua’s other hand, and twisted it backward!

Another scream echoed, and the child in his hand dropped.

However, Lin Yi was quick enough to catch the child the instant he fell.

“Xin Xin, hold the child, no need for you to handle this.”

“Got it, Lin Bro.”

Zhang Zixin came over, took the child into her arms, and then stepped aside.

Ma Hua glared at Lin Yi fiercely.

“You’re dishonest, you said you’d let me go!”

“You can curse all you want, I’m certainly no saint,” Lin Yi coolly said:

“But I warn you, if you dare utter one more curse, I’ll kill you right now. Try me if you don’t believe it.”

Ma Hua shuddered, swallowing his saliva, too frightened by Lin Yi to speak.

“Get in there, squat at the corner like them.”

“But my hand…”

“You won’t die. Don’t make me repeat myself.”

Ma Hua dared not say more, clutching his wrist and enduring the pain, he squatted down next to Zhou Li and the others.

“I have a few questions, you better answer honestly, or I’ll start torturing.”

Lin Yi looked at the four men, smiling:

“I know, people in your line of work are not faint-hearted, try if you don’t believe me, I guarantee it’s thrilling.”

Meanwhile, Gu Yiran was leading Zhang Peng, and Li Hao was with Zhou Min, roaming about the village, inquiring about the children.

Until it got dark, the guards outside gradually returned home one after another, and the two groups met.

“Anything from your side?” Li Hao looked at Gu Yiran.

The latter shook his head, “We asked more than a dozen people, all said they haven’t seen the children, and you?”

“Same here, no useful leads,” Li Hao said:

“I think there might have been an error with the initial lead, perhaps the suspect didn’t bring the children here at all, otherwise there would have been some trace left behind.”

“I’m wondering if we missed anything,” Gu Yiran reflected.

“Unlikely,” Li Hao said:

“We’ve thoroughly checked this village, with our years of experience, it’s unlikely we missed anything. This village likely isn’t the issue, it’s the inaccurate lead.”

“Lin Yi and the others haven’t returned yet. Let’s wait a bit longer and meet up; if indeed nothing was missed, there will still be time to leave.”

“No need for another meeting,” Zhou Min interjected:

“Just call him to come back now. We’ve already confirmed this, you should trust our expertise.”

“Alright, Zhou Min, no need for further discussion, call the station and report the situation here truthfully.”

“Okay.”

Zhou Min took out her phone, began reporting the current situation to Longhu Branch, preparing to head back.

Li Hao lit a cigarette, a bit impatiently:

“Hurry and call your people back, don’t waste more time here.”

Riiing Riiing—

Just then, Gu Yiran’s phone rang—it was Zhang Zixin.

“Ji Qingyan, we’ve caught the suspect, come over to the red brick house at the village east, the one with a van parked in the yard, I’m here with Lin Bro.”

“We’ve caught the suspect!” Gu Yiran said surprised.

“Already caught, five of them!”

“Good, wait there, we’ll be right over!”

Gu Yiran hung up the phone, Li Hao and Zhou Min asked in surprise, “What happened?”

“We’ve caught the suspects, over at the east side of the village, let’s go and see.”

“Heh…”

Zhang Peng sneered, “You two were just saying the suspects weren’t here and were ready to leave, let’s go now, we can handle the rest, don’t delay your break.”

Embarra.s.sed, the two could only a.s.sert:

“These people are quite cunning, managing to deceive even me. Since they’ve been found, let’s go have a look now, try to catch them all.”

“Let’s not bother with a sweep, Lin Bro is here, all that’s left is cleaning up.”

“Alright, let’s stop talking here, head to the east side of the village,” Gu Yiran said.

Subsequently, the four reached Zhou Li’s house.

But as soon as they entered, the sight before them terrified them.

The five people were covered in blood, making Zhang Peng grimace.

“Lin Bro, this isn’t your handiwork, is it?”

“How could that be possible, I always enforce the law gently, I couldn’t possibly do something this violent, right?”

“Yes, yes, yes.”

Zhou Li and the others nodded their heads like bobbleheads, vigorously agreeing.

“It was our own clumsiness, definitely not him hitting us, he’s a good cop and never hits people.”

Gu Yiran didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

Probably Lin Yi had beaten them so badly they were left traumatized.

“Now that we’ve caught the people, let’s take them back, this isn’t a place to conduct interrogation.”

“Hold on, don’t rush,” Lin Yi said:

“They’re just small fish; there might be others behind them, this case might be more complicated than we antic.i.p.ated.”

“Others?” Gu Yiran and the others said surprised.

“Yes, these few alone couldn’t pull off something this big; let me get everything out of them, we can leave after that.”

“Fine, we’ve come all this way, we absolutely need to get to the bottom of this!”

Lin Yi nodded smilingly, then turned to Zhou Li and the others, grinning:

“I won’t ask much more— hand over the mastermind behind you, let’s be frank, after all, being beaten to death isn’t a pleasant thing.”

“Don’t… Don’t hit us…”

Zhou Li stared, saying:

“We have another group, hiding beneath Permanent Village, go there to find them.”
