“He said he collected your blood at the scene and insisted that it was you who did it. Because he couldn’t find you and was worried that you would flee to avoid punishment, he applied to the local authorities to issue an arrest warrant for you first.”
Chen Ping's voice grew increasingly solemn:
"Up to this point, I didn't feel anything was wrong; all the procedures were reasonable and legal."
"But do you know what? The criminals we spent all night catching were released without charge this morning."
Lin Yu remained calm; all of this was within his expectations.
Lin Yu said:
"If I'm not mistaken, they are all Liu Haoran's men. They probably wanted to lure you away so that another group could come and kill me."
Chen Ping's face darkened: "This Liu Haoran is simply lawless!"
He sighed softly, "It seems that someone in the security department has already colluded with him."
"You mean, Captain Lu?" Lin Yu asked.
Chen Ping shook his head: "He doesn't have that much power on his own. Three days ago, when I tried to investigate Liu Haoran, my phone was tapped by my subordinates."
“This morning, the deputy chief came to see me and subtly warned me that if I interfered in this matter again, he wouldn’t be able to protect me.”
Lin Yu clenched his fists, his breathing becoming heavy.
It was clearly Liu Haoran who sent people to surround and kill him, but they turned around and accused him, colluding with the security guards to slander him, forcibly arrest him, and even openly intimidating Chen Ping.
Lin Yu thought of the two women who had been beaten; how innocent they were.
But those who beat them, even though they had been caught, were released without charge. Is there any justice left in this world?
"Captain Chen, what are you planning to do?" Lin Yu asked.
Lin Yu knew that Chen Ping must be under tremendous pressure right now, and if he wasn't careful, he would also be implicated.
Therefore, if Chen Ping chooses to give up and compromise, Lin Yu will not blame him.
Chen Ping said almost without hesitation:
"I'm a security guard. If I don't address the injustices and lawlessness in this world, what's the point of having me as a security guard?"
"I'm determined to handle this!"
Lin Yu was taken aback, not expecting Chen Ping to say that. He could hear the firmness and decisiveness in Chen Ping's words.
Faced with the prospect of personal gain, some choose to aid and abet evil, while others choose to stay true to their principles; such people are truly rare.
"Thank you," Lin Yu said solemnly, then added half-jokingly:
"Looking back now, I'm really glad that you were on night duty that night, Captain Chen. Otherwise, I might have been arrested for no reason as soon as I came out of the dungeon."
"You might be overthinking it," Chen Ping said with a smile.
“If it were anyone else, they wouldn’t have personally led a team to guard that place. After all, everyone knew back then that entering the Midnight Theater was tantamount to a death sentence.”
Lin Yu thought to himself: That makes a lot of sense.
Next, the two discussed countermeasures, the first of which was naturally to clear Lin Yu's name.
Chen Ping sighed:
"Unfortunately, I'm not the one who will be handling this case. Now, all the evidence against you has been presented, while the evidence in your favor has been deliberately hidden."
Lin Yu thought for a moment and said:
"Well, I do have a surveillance video here that can serve as evidence."
"Video? Send it to me," Chen Ping said.
Lin Yu then sent him the video.
Chen Ping clicked on the video and glanced at it. The video started with a group of people breaking down Lin Yu's door and causing a lot of damage inside.
Then they left, leaving two people to keep watch.
When Lin Yu returned home, a man wearing alloy gauntlets attacked him ruthlessly and decisively.
Unable to bear it any longer, Lin Yu retaliated while also protecting himself, which is how he managed to kill the man.
Then, a poison master rushed out of the room, immediately releasing poison mist, and with a dagger, was about to kill Lin Yu...
Lin Yu did kill many people, but it was all out of necessity. Besides, these people really deserved to die!
Even though he was prepared, Chen Ping was still extremely angry after watching the video:
"These people are going too far!"
Taking a deep breath, he said, "Very well, Lin Yu, with this video, I guarantee I'll give you justice!"
"Wait for my news!" After saying that, Chen Ping hurriedly hung up the phone.
P.S.: Happy Chinese New Year! Wishing all my brothers good fortune, abundant wealth, happiness, and beauty!
