CHAPTER 342: CHAPTER 321: YOU ARE A MURDERER

"Don’t hit the face!" Mahadi threw down a harsh word and walked out again, while the two detectives who walked in from outside looked even more like criminals than he did.

Putting a thick phone book on the chest is a very old-fashioned method, but it’s very effective. It leaves no marks on the surface but can easily injure the internal organs.

"I know you’re tough! But from your angle, you can only be seen as assaulting an officer. If you don’t mind adding to your charges, go ahead and fight back." A bearded policeman warned Xiao Lin in English, kindly giving him a heads up.

"Come on!"

It took just one minute for those two policemen to be unable to get up again. Xiao Lin dusted himself off and sat back in the chair, telling the stunned boy in front of him, "Pour me a glass of water, and tell Mahadi we’ve settled this score."

Brutal? Xiao Lin didn’t object; pointless brutality is a desecration of law enforcement.

Hua Qingyi had been standing there for almost two hours, and when the clock on the wall struck nine o’clock, Rem rushed in from outside. He didn’t see Hua Qingyi and went straight into the interrogation room.

"Mahadi, this case is closed, you don’t need to investigate further." Rem said as he walked into the interrogation room without looking up, almost tripping over the people lying on the floor: "Mahadi, what’s going on here?"

Xiao Lin used only one hand to pin Mahadi onto the table. He let go when he saw Rem come in. No need to explain, and no explanation was needed.

Rem gave Xiao Lin a standard military salute, then punched Mahadi: "Disgraceful!"

"Can I leave now?" Xiao Lin asked with a smile.

"I’ll escort you out!"

"No need! These guys and the two on the ground can retire now, that kid, you should train him well." Xiao Lin nodded at the boy who still didn’t understand what was happening and walked out naturally.

Rem was a smart guy; what he did for Xiao Lin could be considered kind. At least he handed the man over to him to handle, not to those others. You should know that the abuse of justice is not a big deal in the precinct; it’s a dark practice that almost every station has, but it depends on who it falls into. Thinking of this, Rem shouted loudly: "Mahadi, I warned you from the beginning."

"Who the hell is he?"

"You don’t need to know that; the less you know about some things, the better." From the moment Rem received the call until now, his heart was still pounding violently: "You heard what was said earlier, I can’t help you this time, prepare to receive the dismissal letter!"

"What?" Mahadi shouted, he’s barely in his early forties, a decade away from retirement.

"Mahadi, we’ve worked together for so long. Trust me, this punishment is considered lenient. At least this person doesn’t have much malice toward you. If it fell into the hands of those others, I really can’t say." Rem patted Mahadi’s shoulder sympathetically: "Accept reality, he’s even more formidable than the Xiao Family."

"He killed someone!" For Mahadi’s stubbornness, Rem shook his head helplessly.

"He killed them legally." Rem left with only those faint words.

Hua Qingyi followed behind Xiao Lin, handing him a bottle of water.

Xiao Lin was angry, very angry! Angry with himself! He unscrewed the bottle cap and poured the water over his head, washing away the dirty blood, wiped his face casually, and gulped the water down his throat.

"Who the hell did you get involved with?" Xiao Lin pulled Hua Qingyi into an alley, pushing him against the wall. It couldn’t have been Dragon Soul, so it must be those old ghosts!

"You know it very well!" Hua Qingyi didn’t mind Xiao Lin’s anger. If he could, he would have hoped Dragon Soul could handle it, but their power range hasn’t reached the extent where it can touch another country’s laws. Xiao Lin killed someone, that’s a fact, regardless of the rightful reason, killing is breaking the law.

Xiao Lin backed away, leaning against the wall, gasping for breath.

"Brother, you’re the one they selected, the only recognized heir of the Xiao Family, that’s an undisputed fact. Even if you try to avoid it, you’ll have to face it. Even if they let you go now, one day you’ll have to return. Dragon Soul can’t keep you forever."

"I understand," Xiao Lin replied softly with a sigh.

Watching the lonely figure, Hua Qingyi suddenly felt he was much luckier than him. Perhaps in the eyes of others, people like them are glamorous, but behind those bright and beautiful appearances, it’s not necessarily happy. He was still okay, but Xiao Lin? From childhood, living a life of fighting and killing, having to guard against not only outsiders but insiders as well, the power struggle is the only unchanging law through generations.

After briefly tending to his wounds, Xiao Lin came out of the bathroom, and the other three were already seated together.

"General, Moth has sent a message from fourth master, he refuses to meet with you." The Pilot said loudly.

"If we bypass those checkpoints, how long will it take us to get in?"

"In fact, bypassing or not bypassing makes little difference; you’ll still end up at the mountain wall. There’s no road leading from behind." The Pilot paused, he had a plan but it was quite risky: "Based on information from Shaoqing, they go out to purchase goods once a week, so it might be easier to infiltrate from there."

"According to my observations two days ago, there’s only one purchasing vehicle, and it’s always the same person going in and out, so the inspection process here is weak. There’s another possibility, to mingle with the women."

"Hmm?" Hua Qingyi and Xiao Lin made a curious sound simultaneously. The Pilot continued: "Every other week, a group of dancers is sent to this base."

"Entering directly is always a risk. Shaoqing, I need all the codes Night Eagle left in this city. Pilot, find me the best escape route from this base, by any means necessary." Xiao Lin pondered a question, how did Night Eagle manage to enter Hassan’s estate without a sound? Under such tight control, there must be a secret passage: "Until we find all the codes, remain vigilant. Now, I need to get some weapons."

"I’ll go with you!" Having learned from past incidents, Hua Qingyi wouldn’t let Xiao Lin act alone again.

"Meet up in the slums in three days!"

A mother, a very young woman, carried a baby only a few months old in her left arm and held a little girl with her right hand. She looked very thin, with a radiant glow on her dark skin, her downcast eyes hidden by long, curly eyelashes covering the pain inside! (To be continued.
